AN: Sorry for the delay but I went to the Astro's game last night and I was busy this afternoon. Also on the request of someone I have made this chapter double the normal length which means I expect double the reviews. Thanks for all the reviews I finally reached 400.

Chapter 25: She's Gone

It had been a month since Rory had moved to Boston and things were going alright for her. She had been seeing a therapist to help her get over the emotional trauma. She was doing better but sometimes she couldn't help but feel like someone was watching her.

Max was slowly planning out what he was going to do to Rory. At this point he had gotten her daily schedule down and was just finishing his plan as to what he was going to do to her.

Lorelai had been doing alright she still missed Rory a lot but she did talk to her everyday. Today was the day that Lorelai was going to ask Luke out again.

"What are you so happy about today?" Luke asked.

"I'm happy because this is the day you promised that I could ask you out again" Lorelai said smiling.

Luke bit his lip he had promised that but he still didn't want to be some rebound boyfriend.

"Maybe a little bit longer" Luke started.

"No I've waited a month I want to date you" Lorelai said drawing the attention of some people.

"Let's go upstairs, Caser you're in charge" Luke said noticing the people looking at them.

Lorelai followed Luke upstairs and sat down.

"So why don't you want to date me?" Lorelai asked.

'Is it because of Max or my STD?' Lorelai secretly worried.

"It's because I just don't want to be the rebound boyfriend" Luke said.

'Oh, that's just it' Lorelai said in her head.

"Don't worry I've already had a date" Lorelai said.

'How did she date without me knowing' Luke wondered.

"Who was it with?" Luke asked.

"I was with this guy in my business class it was a week ago and the date was awful" Lorelai said.

'So I guess I'm not the rebound' Luke thought.

"Alright you've convinced me, today is what a Thursday?" Luke asked.

"Yeah" Lorelai said.

"I'll give you the time of your life tomorrow night" Luke said.

"Great I can't wait, damn I have dinner" Lorelai said.

"We can do it on Saturday" Luke said.

"No, I'll just fake sick" Lorelai said.

"Are you sure?" Luke asked.

"I'm sure, I've been waiting a whole month and I can't wait anymore" Lorelai said.

"Fine I'll see you tomorrow" Luke said.

"See you tomorrow" Lorelai said walking down the stairs.

After Lorelai walk downstairs Jess came up.

"So are you two dating now?" Jess asked.

Luke sighed, "It's a date meaning this could be my only chance" he said.

"Well good Luck" Jess said.

"Yeah well I have to make it special" Luke said.

"What are you going to do?" Jess asked.

Luke wasn't sure if he was really interested but answered any way, "I guess I'll take her to a movie and probably dinner" Luke said.

"Well once again good luck" Jess said grabbing a book to read.

Luke went back downstairs and started planning tomorrow nights date out in his mind.

Meanwhile in Boston Rory was getting restless the school year had just ended and she was stuck here.

'Maybe this was a mistake I mean Max really wouldn't come back to Stars Hollow' Rory thought.

"So what do you want to do tonight?" Chris asked interrupting her thoughts.

"I don't know" Rory answered truthfully.

"Well how about we go out and grab some dinner, I'm sure Sherry can meet us somewhere" Chris said.

"Alright lets go" Rory said putting on her shoes, 'Its better then staying here' she thought.

Max was once again watching for Rory, he was in his final preparations for tomorrow night.

'I can do this, just one more day' Max thought, as much as he wanted to wait another week or so his money was running out so it had to be tomorrow or else he wouldn't be able to get his revenge.

Just then Max saw Rory and Chris walk outside and he started to reconsider his plan.

'They usually go out on Friday night but since they're going out tonight I could follow' Max thought. He thought it over for another second 'I can't wait anymore, I'll do it tonight' he thought as he started to follow them.

Max knew he was taking a huge risk but it could be worth it.

In Stars Hollow Lorelai was talking to Sookie in the kitchen.

"Are you sure Luke isn't just a rebound date?" Sookie asked as she cut some carrots.

"I'm sure believe me the last thing I want Luke to be is a rebound date" Lorelai said.

"As long as you're sure but just remember if you hurt Luke half the town will hate you" Sookie said.

Lorelai sighed, "I know but believe me I do want to be with Luke" Lorelai said.

"How do you know?" Sookie asked.

"Because I was ready to call off my wedding after talking to Luke" Lorelai admitted.

Sookie gasped, "Really?" she asked.

"Yeah but I thought it was just cold feet so I went through with the wedding, it's my only regret" Lorelai said.

"So what are you going to wear?" Sookie asked as she dumped the carrots in the soup.

"I don't want it to be to slutty so I was thinking just a regular dress" Lorelai said.

"That's a good idea" Sookie said as she moved on to the chicken she was making.

"Well I need to get back to work" Lorelai said leaving the kitchen.

'Tomorrow is going to be the best day ever' Lorelai thought as she went over some papers.

Back in Boston Max had gotten lucky enough to be able to break into the apartment and was waiting in a closet for them to come home. He checked his watch, 'Eleven already at least they should go to bed quickly' he thought.

About ten minutes later they all walked inside, "Well I'm going to bed" Rory said as she went into her room.

"She seems to be doing better" Sherry said.

"Yeah I think she's just bored" Chris said.

"Well any divorce must be hard on her even if he was just her step-father" Sherry said grabbing a bottle of water.

"Well I'm going to bed" Chris said.

"I just want to hear Leno's monologue then I'll come to bed" Sherry said.

After the Jay Leno's nightly monologue Sherry went to bed but Max still waited an hour to be sure everyone was asleep before making his move.

Max silently walked out of the closet and went into Rory's room to find her asleep. 'I'm going to have to do this gently and quickly' he thought.

Max first went to the door and open it before going back to get Rory. He carefully picked her up she stirred a little but stayed asleep.

Once out of the apartment Max silently closed the door and went carefully walked down the stairs to his car.

Max had gotten a parking spot in front of the building so he could do this quickly. He put her into the car and then drove off.

Max's apartment was about 25 blocks away so he drove silently so he wouldn't wake Rory up.

Luckily for Max she didn't wake up, 'This girl is one deep sleeper' he mused when he got to his apartment.

'I have to do this gently' Max thought as he picked Rory up and went upstairs to his apartment to get his revenge.

Once he got into the apartment he laid Rory down and she still hadn't woken up. 'I can't wait to see her face tomorrow' Max thought as he tied her down and went to get some sleep.

The next morning Chris woke up to go to work. He quickly got dressed and made some coffee for when Rory woke up.

As Chris was leaving he noticed that the door was unlocked, 'Sherry must have forgotten to lock the door' he thought as he left.

An hour later Sherry woke up to go to work, she was surprised to see that Rory wasn't up yet but thought nothing of it and quickly left for work.

Rory had woken up this morning to the smell of coffee, 'Dad must have made some' she thought as she tried to get up but found that she was tied down.

Fear began to rise within Rory when she realized that she was tied down and found that she was in another apartment.

"Hello Rory" Max said.

Rory tried to say something but she couldn't find the words.

"You shouldn't have told anyone, you've been a bad girl" Max said as Rory started to cry.

"Don't worry I won't kill you now, here have some coffee" Max offered.

'He could try to poison me' Rory thought shaking her head no.

Max sighed, "Don't worry it's not poisoned if I wanted you dead then you would be dead" he said.

Rory debated for a minute, "I would like some coffee please" she said.

"There's a good girl, here you go" Max said giving her some.

"Now I'm not going to hurt you now so relax and we'll have some fun tonight" Max said.

Rory was silently crying, 'Please someone find me' she thought.

In Stars Hollow Lorelai was getting ready for her date with Luke tonight.

"It's only a couple of hours away" Sookie excitedly said.

"I know I can't wait" Lorelai said.

"So did you tell Rory?" Sookie asked.

"I've tried calling over but nobodies answering" Lorelai said.

"Do you think she's alright?" Sookie asked.

"Probably, I'm sure she's out or something" Lorelai said not quite believing herself.

At Luke's Luke was going over a couple of things with Jess.

"Alright I'm trusting you to be in charge tonight can you handle it?" Luke asked.

"Don't worry nothing is going to happen" Jess said.

"Alright I just want to be sure" Luke said.

"Don't worry it'll ruin your date" Jess said.

"You're right well I'm going upstairs to get ready if you need anything just call me" Luke said.

"Just go" Jess said.

In Boston Chris had just gotten back home from work and went into Rory's room to talk to her.

When he got to her room she saw that she wasn't there 'Must have gone out' he thought as he went into the kitchen to have some water.

In a chance of fate Chris looked over at the coffee pot and noticed that the coffee was still there. 'This is bad' Chris thought as he took a closer look around.

Rory's purse, wallet, and cell phone were still there and all of her clothes were there. 'I need to call the police' Chris thought.

After he called the police and they were on there way Chris knew he had to call Lorelai.

'She needs to know' Chris kept on telling himself feeling very guilty about taking Rory know.

Chris dialed her number and waited for her to answer.

"Hello" Lorelai said.

"Hey Lor" Chris said trying to keep his voice steady.

"Chris thanks for calling I need you to tell my mom I can't make it tonight I'm not feeling good" Lorelai said faking sick.

"Lor I know you're faking sick" Chris said.

"Alright I am faking sick but please just tell them that I'm busy" Lorelai said.

"I have some bad news" Chris stated.

"What is it?" Lorelai asked getting worried.

"I think that Max broke in last night and took Rory" Chris said quickly.

"WHAT!" Lorelai screamed into the phone.

"I came home this afternoon and noticed that the coffee I left her this morning wasn't gone and all her things were here and she wasn't and the door was unlocked" Chris said.

"How could you let this happen?" Lorelai asked as she started to cry.

"I didn't mean it" Chris said.

"I'll get there as soon as I can" Lorelai said hanging up the phone. After she hung up the phone she broke down and started to cry. 'I thought it was over' was all she could think.
