Chapter 7

"What are you doing here? You shouldn't be here, does your wife know?" Rory rambles.

"Rory, what's going on with you?" Dean says sounding concerned.

"Nothing I'm fine, nothing's wrong with me." She says unconvincingly. And making it even more unconvincing she had tears doing down her cheeks.

"Rory what happened after I left that day?" Dean asks Rory, sitting on the bed next to her.

Rory day there for a while trying to think how to tell him that his wife told her to stay away from him forever.

"You look hesitant to tell me? Did I do something wrong?" Dean says nervously.

"No! You did nothing, it was G- it was no one, don't worry about it I'm fine okay?" Rory says, almost blurting out the truth.

"Gen? You were about to say Gen right? What did she do to you? Did she hurt you?" Dean rants.

"No she didn't hurt me Dean. She just told me to never call you again or go near you." She says the last part quietly not wanting Dean to hear her.

"She what? So that's why you never called me, because Gen threatened you? That's it I can't take her anymore, I'm filing for a divorce." Dean says angrily, making Rory a little nervous.

"What? No, you can't do that what will happen to the kids? I can't be responsible for another one of your divorces Dean!" Rory says making big hand gestures, expressing how she felt.

"Rory calm down! I've been thinking about it for a while and I'll run for full custody because Gen isn't fit to be a mother, she's drunk and high all the time and I don't trust her around my kids. Everything will be fine I promise!" Dean explains to Rory.

This was a big shock to Rory as she thought everything would've turned out fine but to her surprise his life was looking way worse than hers at this moment.

She was speechless; she had no idea what to say to him.

"Are you going to be okay Rory?" Dean asks looking deep into her eyes, inching closer to her.

"I will be. I'll be okay." Rory says whilst also inching closer to Dean.

After a couple minutes of inching closer and closer towards each other, they finally started to lean into each other's lips.

But obviously before they could kiss, Lorelai burst in the room and Dean and Rory jumped away from each other.

"Everything okay in here?" Lorelai asks with a smirk on her face.

"Yeah, everything's great Mom, I feel a lot better and I was thinking of going to look for an apartment somewhere." Rory said with a slight blush on her face.

"Oh really, where? Close I hope?" Lorelai says looking a little sad.

"Hartford I think." Rory says looking at Dean slightly.

Dean sits with his back to Lorelai. Lorelai would definitely comment on the massive grin on his face if he was facing her.

He looked at Rory and thought 'At least she'll be closer to me; maybe I could help her find one and pick the one that's closest to me'

"Hey I could help if you want? I live there so I could ask around?" Dean explains to Rory, Lorelai smirking to herself.

"That sounds nice Dean thanks." Rory asks with a huge smile on her face.

"Anyways I should get back home; I have lots of work to do along with a divorce to file and custody to win. I'll call you soon so we can start looking for apartments for you. Bye Rory, bye Lorelai." Dean waves at both, walking out of Rory's room and out the front door letting out a sigh.

This is going to be a hard week.
