She sat there and stared at the wall for a couple of minutes. Then the doctor came in….
"Ok we have the results to your test. "
"Ok. Is it bad?"
"Well we saw something and we can't quite make it out, so I want to run some more tests. I don't think it's anything harmful but I just want to be safe."
"Ok. Thank you."
"Where is Mr. Danes?"
"Oh he went to get himself something to eat" She had to lie because she couldn't tell the doctor that he left."
Luke felt horrible for leaving her in there, by herself. But he was so just frustrated, not at her, but at this whole situation.
He drove out of the parking lot and drove around Hartford.
Back in Lorelai's room the doctor was still there.
"Are we ready to go now? The quicker we go the quicker you can rest."
"Yes let's go."
"Ok" then he wheeled her away.
Meanwhile while Luke was driving around Hartford. He was thinking of what happened and what Lorelai said. How she said he promised not to leave her. He knew he said that, but didn't know how to make up to her now.
Luke turned around and drove as fast as he could back to the hospital, once he got there he ran to her room. But she wasn't there, he started freaking out.
"Somebody please tell me where Lorelai Gilmore is!"
Another nurse overheard and came over to Luke.
"She is getting tests done sir."
"What the hell for now?"
"They got her tests back for when they checked for brain damage and they saw something. They want to run more tests."
"Oh God. She is probably so scared."
Luke paced back and forth in front of Lorelai's room door. He was so scared for her. Finally about an hour later after waiting they brought Lorelai back, but she was sleeping.
Luke rushes to her side and looks at the doctor.
"What's wrong? Why isn't she awake?"
"She fell asleep Mr. Danes. It's the medicine. She will be fine though. The test showed that she has a slight case of Amnesia which is causing her not to remember the whole story with how she got here."
"Okay thank you" He went in and sat next to Lorelai. He held her hand
He starts talking to her.
"Oh Lorelai I'm so so sorry I left you here alone. I never meant to do that. I love you so much and I just want you to be better. I hate hospitals, they...they..They always take away the people I love the most." His voice cracks and he starts to cry.
She opens her eyes. She was only half asleep "Luke? I'm not going to die you know. I'm going to be fine."
"I..I know I just hate seeing you like this."
"Are you crying?"
"yeah. I love you so much. I'm sorry I left you"
"It's okay really. What did the doctor say was wrong with me?"
"He said you have some Amnesia and that's why you may have trouble remembering some things, but you should be better soon."
"Oh god, what if the people in court know, then they will think I'm lying."
"No they won't, don't worry about court okay." He grips her hand tighter.
"Okay. When do we go there? When do I go home?"
"The court date is set for next Friday and the doctors said you can go home tomorrow but must be in a wheelchair at all times, except bed."
"Good. So I can't even sit on the couch with you or anything?" She frowns "Luke can I ask you a question?"
"Of course you can."
"Will you move in with me?"
He is shocked at first. "Move..I..In with you. Really? Are you sure?"
"Yes. If I wasn't would I have asked you. I need you."
"I would love to move in with you." He smiles and gets up, and kisses her.
"Yay. We can be roomies and other things." She smiles "Are you ready to take me on full time?"
He turned very serious. "I never wanted anything more in my life. I love you Lorelai." He talked to her as if she was dieing.
"Good. I really wish I could help you move in your stuff"
"No, you don't have to worry about a thing. I will take care of it. When you get out of here you are resting until you are well enough to wheel that wheelchair on your own, understand." He says sternly but with a smile.
"Okay. I just wish I could cuddle with you on the couch like we use to. You know watching movies and that. Will you bend the rules for me a little bit?"
"Give it a few weeks with just the wheelchair and then I'll help you with sitting on the couch. I'm going to miss being with you like we used to too."
"Me too" They kiss
It's the next day and Lorelai is getting ready to go home
Luke and a doctor carefully pick her up and put her in the wheelchair, she can't really lean on her imp so its hard for her to sit, but they put some pillows and cushions on there and around an ice pack, against her hip. Hoping that will help with the pain. Her leg is up and now Luke is wheeling her out to the car.
"Can you get me in the car okay?"
"Um...yeah I think it should be fine." He slowly takes her out of the wheelchair and places her in the front seat.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Thank you"
"Great." He folds the wheelchair and puts it in the car. Then he gets in and they head home.
"Luke. Thank you for everything. When we get home everyone is going to come over. Can we not have them over today? I really want to rest"
"I will definitely kick them all out, you need to rest."
"Thanks and you can take a nap with me you know"
"Sure I would love to." He says, they get home and Luke kicks everyone out then gets Lorelai and wheels her carefully up the stairs, telling himself to build a ramp. He brings her upstairs and lays her carefully on the bed.
"I hope I can get a peaceful nap in with no one coming to the door"
"you will" Luke says and climbs in bed carefully with her
Luke gets up for a minute and locks the doors so that no one can come in, then he snuggles back against Lorelai and falls asleep.
Review please, the next chapter will be up as soon as we can write.
