Chapter 14: Old Memories Revisited
"What do we need to talk about Chris?" Lorelai asked feigning ignorance.
"You know what we need to talk about" Chris responded moving closer to Lorelai.
"I'll leave you two alone" Luke said as he started to walk away. He knew that they would need sometime alone to discuss stuff and his presence wouldn't help any. This was between them.
"Luke stay…" Lorelai started but was stopped.
"You need to talk to Chris alone, trust me it will be good for you" Luke assured her while looking at Chris just to be sure he was doing the right thing.
Chris knew what Luke was thinking and nodded to assure him that this was the right thing to do.
"Are you sure?" Lorelai asked trying to hold it together.
"I'm sure and don't worry, Chris won't hurt you, you'll be safe, I'm just going for a walk" Luke assured her as he gave her a hug and went outside for a walk.
"So are we going to talk?" Chris asked trying to make Lorelai feel in control of the situation.
"Fine you start" Lorelai said not wanting to talk, but she knew she had to get it over with.
"Rory told me what happened" Chris stated trying to get Lorelai to talk to him and not the other way around.
"She told me, she also told me that you think I was raped before" Lorelai said her voice rising with every word she spoke until she was nearly screaming.
"Lor, you know it's true" Chris said softly trying not make her angry.
"It's not true" Lorelai said shaking her head as tears fell down her face.
"Yes it is remember, the party, you telling me what happened, and the pregnancy?" Chris asked trying to make her remember what happened.
"It never happened" Lorelai said her voice wavering a little bit as new memories came back into her mind.
"Yes it did, try to remember" Chris said hoping to lead her back to that night.
Lorelai tried to remember but all she remembered was her rape from the other night and then she started to remember a little bit.
Then the memories suddenly hit Lorelai like a ton of bricks, everything came back to her. The fear she felt that night, his hot breath on her neck, the pain she felt as that man took that innocence away from her. She even remembered his voice during that small moment they talked to each other. Then suddenly she remembered the other night.
"They're the same person" Lorelai said softly, so soft she wasn't even sure if she said it.
"What was that?" Chris asked he hadn't heard her say anything.
"The man who raped me before is the same one who raped me the other night" Lorelai stated evenly while on the inside she was shaking with fear.
Chris was stunned this was the last thing he had expected. "Are you sure?" he asked.
"I think so but I'm not 100 percent sure" Lorelai said as she tried to stay strong but started to shake.
"It could just be in your mind" Chris said even though he was starting to get nervous.
"No I'm pretty sure it was him" Lorelai said sitting down in shock. 'Please God don't let it be him' she prayed.
"It probably isn't him and it could just be a bed series of events, just accidental" Chris said as he held Lorelai's hand.
"You're probably right, but what if it isn't?" Lorelai asked holding on to his hand for dear life.
"Well did the police get a DNA sample from the other night?" Chris asked.
"I think they might have, they haven't gotten back to me yet" Lorelai said.
"Well they could just try and match up Rory's DNA and the one from the other night, just to be on the safe side" Chris suggested.
"That would make me feel a little bit better" Lorelai admitted smiling a little at Chris.
"Well I should go I'm sure Luke is outside waiting to come in" Chris said smiling back at her.
"He probably is" Lorelai said as she stood up.
"He's a good guy, I'm happy you found someone like him" Chris said truthfully.
"Thanks I know it's a bit hard for you but thanks for accepting him" Lorelai said.
"Don't worry about it you had to put up with Sherry and she was worse, looking back I shouldn't have been with her" Chris admitted.
"Don't worry you'll find someone" Lorelai said.
"Yeah, well I should get going now, I'll talk to you later" Chris said as he got up to leave. When he got outside he found Luke waiting for him.
"Is she alright?" Luke asked nervously.
"She'll be fine, just be sure that you take care of her" Chris said.
"Is there anything she told you I should know?" Luke asked.
Chris thought for a second. "She'll tell you everything, she really trusts you" he said as he got into his car and started his drive back to Boston.
Luke walked into the house to find Lorelai staring blankly at the wall.
"What did Chris tell you?" Lorelai asked wondering what she had to tell him.
"Nothing, he said that you were going to fill me in on everything" Luke said sitting down next to her.
Lorelai took a deep breath. "I know that I was raped before and I think the man who raped me the other day, raped me all those years ago" she said not looking at Luke.
Luke was speechless he had no idea how to respond to this so he decided to wing it. "It will be alright, the police will catch this guy no matter what" he said.
"So you think they are the same guy?" Lorelai asked looking up at him.
Luke bit his lip. "I'm not sure all I know is that they will catch this guy no matter what and you will get over this" he said.
Lorelai smiled at him, "Thanks Luke I'm sure you're right I just need to get through this" she said.
Luke smiled back at her, "Don't worry I'll be here for you every step of the way" he said and they both felt that things were going to get better.
