2 Years On Stars Hollow GraveyardLogan walked quietly through the Stars Hollow cemetery, Levi, Dylan, Eden and Bradley following behind. They walked up the centre path, past many gravestones, new an old, until he reached the top of the path. Logan turned and walked right along to the final gravestone, Rory's, the most beautiful spot in the graveyard, overlooking the best of Stars Hollow.
Levi and Dylan both tall young boys now, placed bunches of flowers at the head of her grave, Eden just stood and watched and Bradley held tightly onto Logan's hand. Logan was holding back the tears as he stood facing Rory's gravestone.
Lorelai 'Rory' Gilmore.
Loving mother
Caring daughter and beautiful wife.
You will be missed forever
Rest in peace.
My Ace.
Logan had inscribed the 'My Ace', after the gravestone was set in place about 8 months ago; he felt it was missing something. So he took a hammer and a chisel and inscribed the 'My Ace' at the end. Lorelai said it added character.
"Hey, guess what Ace, it's me again. I know I normally come on Tuesday's but today's the 2-year anniversary of well, you know. So I brought everyone with me, your mom said she is coming later, you know with Luke and you'll get to meet the new baby, they all love her.
Anyway, everything's going really great down here. Levi and Dylan are both doing great in school, Lulu's Dylan's teacher and they love it. And Eden, she starts preschool this next semester. I finally moved all of your stuff out of your house in Cali and moved it into mine. I'm going to sell yours now like you asked, I always intended to respect your wishes, I just needed time, I'm sure you know that. Your mom's new baby is so cute. She and Luke are great parents. Her names Sophie, not what you expected right, but it's cute, or at least I think so.
I know you said in your will that Eden was mine, but Jack called last week, he was in Hartford and he wanted to see her. He's out of rehab now, 6 months sober and he's got himself a pretty girlfriend, he's really sorted himself out now, so I let him see her, only for an hour, he took her to McDonalds. I told her about him and she said she understood, she didn't call him Dad, she only calls me that" Logan smiled as he spoke to Rory, telling her about everything as if she wasn't there, but he knew she was always there, sitting beside him when he worked late at the office, there when Levi hurts himself or when Eden needs her Mom.
"People and 'US Weekly' did a piece on you this morning and NBC had a little series of pictures in your memory. I gave them some of before you were famous and your mom sent some of when you were young and of course your high school graduation picture. Taylor's organising another yearly festival, its special though. Even though it's still a pain in the backside to have him asking me stuff about his fair, it's ok this time because this fair is called,
'The annual Stars Hollow, Rory Gilmore foundation fair'
Pretty cool, huh, I think it is, so do the kids, they're guests of honour. Lane stopped by yesterday, I haven't seen her in a while, she said would I give you these flowers" Logan laid a bunch of beautiful flowers in front of her gravestone "I still don't think she's quite ready to come and see you yet, not a lot of people are.
Oh and Benny's back, well not back, she just called last week, wanted to know how I was doing and the boys, it was unexpected but I missed her, not like that, I love you but she was cool and the boys liked her. She asked if she could come stay soon, I agreed, I thought it might be a good idea.
Anyway that's all for this week, I just wanted you to remember we're always thinking of you. Levi and Dylan want to speak to you now. I'll see you next week ace." And with that Logan wiped a tear from his eyes and moved away, letting Levi and Dylan step forward. They stood side by side directly in front of Rory's gravestone.
Dylan spoke first, slowly and nervously, they'd never spoken to her like this before, but they were older now, Dylan was 7 nearly and Levi was 8 the week before.
"Hey mommy, its me, Dylan. I hope you still remember me, I'll always remember you, Sookie said she won't let me forget to come here every year. I promise I'll try my best not to. I miss you loads, Bradley doesn't know who you are, but I tell him, don't worry. Daddy gave me some photos to show him. He said I'll have to show Eden too because he might forget you, but don't worry, I'll make sure they know. I really like school now and Lulu said I'm doing really good, we're doing fiddler on the roof. I didn't get the part of the fiddler though, I forgot my lines, and so Kirk got the part. I told Lorelai and she couldn't stop laughing. I asked her why and she just said be sure to tell your mom, so I'm telling you, I hope you get it. But I got a really good part still and Daddy's helping me learn my lines. Anyway, I'll come and see you again soon, I promise and I'll keep telling Bradley and Eden about you. I love you mommy. Bye" Dylan walked over to the gravestone and got really close. He kissed the air and blew it towards Rory's gravestone.
Dylan stepped back and Logan held his shoulder as he began to cry. Levi moved forward and looked down to the floor.
"Hey mommy. I don't really have much to tell you. I do stuff like Dylan, like go to school and talk to Eden and Bradley, he pretty much told you it all. But I have some questions. I think about them alot and I figured I'd ask you even if I don't get a reply you're the only person I know in Heaven. I was wondering you know, is it nice up there?" Levi tipped his head back and looked up into the blue February sky. "I mean do you like it, and can you like see us all the time or only when we're here or do you not see us at all, maybe you can only hear us? I was thinking you could maybe come and tell me one day, like in secret, like a kind of ghost and answer my questions, I'll keep it a secret and I won't tell Gd, I promise. I want to see you again, I miss you loads" Levi started to cry. He could remember Rory the best, he was the oldest of them all and he felt responsible for knowing stuff about her and being able to tell Eden and Bradley stuff when they forgot or in Bradley's case when he didn't know. "It's really sad that you've gone but people say Heaven is a better place, I believe it. Daddy says if I'm good I'll go to heaven and we'll all be together again, I hope so because I liked it before, right when Bradley was born, it was fun. Oh wait; I just remembered one more thing. We had to do a show and tell thing where we brought in our Mom's and told the class about them. Miss Langley said that I didn't have to do it, but I wanted to. So I took in photos of you, Lorelai gave me some when you were little and I took some from the photo album of when we went to Disneyworld, you, me and Dylan and Eden was in your belly still. And then I took the picture or your gravestone in too. I'll read you what I said." Levi took a piece of scrumpled up paper from his pants pocket and opened it up. "This is my mom. She's my favoritest person ever. I love her so much, she taught me loads of stuff like how to tie my shoe and tell the time. But now she can't speak to me anymore, but I can still feel her. My mommy went to Heaven a while ago, to be an angel, because she was one. I remember her though, I remember loads, but my brother and sister don't, they were just babies so I have to tell them stuff. But there's always new stuff to tell her like things I know my Mom's saying when she's with me. My Dad said she's always with me because her heart is the same as mine. I miss my Mom but I know she's always there, and I always know where to find her. The place she rests is really nice with flowers and all, it's quiet and it over looks Stars Hollow, her favourite place in the world. I love sitting there and talking to her just like you talk to your Mom's, except my Mom doesn't speak to me, she just stands next to me all the time, helping me." Levi put the paper back in his pocket. "If you are always watching us you've heard that already but until I know you are, I can't be too sure so I'm sorry if I repeated myself but I really wanted you to hear that. I'll come and see you again soon, I miss you Mommy. Bye" Levi walked back to Logan who was in tears again.
Levi took hold of Logan's hand and they all took one last look at Rory's gravestone, 2 years, that's how long it had been.
"See you ace" Logan whispered under his breath. He winked at her and then turned and walked away. Dylan and Levi followed behind him as he carried Bradley and held Eden's hand. They all left Rory's gravestone with their flowers, the kisses and winks for Rory and as she received them Rory sat up in Heaven smiling.
