She had only been walking for 20 minutes, but to her, it seemed like a century. He had called 6 times, and Rory had called twice. She hadn't answered any of them, because she knew the minute that she did someone would want to talk. She didn't even know where she was going. All she knew was she needed to get out of there. She couldn't take it anymore. All of these emotions had built up inside her, and today they were finally laid out on the table.
This was the first relationship that she didn't want to run from. She wanted to marry Luke. She wanted to be with him for the rest of her life. Why did it seem like the entire world was out to screw them up? With Max, everything fell right into place. Maybe that's why they didn't work out. Her heart wasn't in that relationship, but it sure as hell was in this one. Why couldn't the world see that Lorelai Gilmore was not going to run away?
Her cell phone started to ring. She knew who it was without looking at it. It kept ringing and ringing before she finally answered it.
"Hello" she said, clearly in tears.
"Lorelai where are you?" he said worried.
"Luke, I just need some time."
"Weren't you the one who was afraid of this "more time" thing?"
"Yes, and you took your time, we broke up. You had time to think and evaluate everything. Now please just give me that time." She said getting worked up.
"Okay, I'll be here when you're ready."
She closed her phone and kept walking. She still didn't know where to go.

He couldn't believe how stupid he was being. He was letting the woman he loved walk away. But, she was right, she did need some time. But how much time was enough? 20 minutes? Probably not. He couldn't just sit home and think about her, he had to do something.

She was sitting on the steps to her very own Inn, the exact spot where everything with her and Luke had started. Their first kiss, or kisses actually. She loved this spot; she would come her when she needed to think about something. And tonight especially it seemed like an appropriate spot.

She didn't hear him drive or walk up, but she knew he would show up eventually.
"Hi" he said shyly.
"Hey." She said looking at the ground.
"Can we talk?"
"Sure." She said moving over so he could sit down.
"You ok?"
She couldn't believe he was actually asking her that, after one major fight.
"Yeah Luke, I'm fine." She lied.
"No you're not. Of course you're not, why did I ask that?" he said babbling.
"What do you want to talk about Luke?" she asked, so not in the mood to deal with this.
"Lorelai, I'm sorry"
"Why are you sorry, what did you do that hurt me?" she asked wondering if he was just trying to end a fight.
"Everything I've done, I've hurt you."
"Yeah you have Luke, a lot."
"I know. And I am so sorry."
"Thank you." She said, almost blowing him off.
"So, are we good?" he asked
And she knew right then that he was trying to end this argument. He didn't even know what he had done.
"You know what Luke?" she said turning to finally look at him.
"What?" he asked
"I can't handle this. It's just too much for me. I'm sorry." She said standing up.
"Whoa, Lorelai wait." He said running after her and grabbing her arm. "You can't do this, we're engaged."
"Luke, we are never getting married, so why don't we stop living in fantasy land and get back to reality." She said walking away.
He just stood there in shock.
