Please R&R! Tell me what you think: Should I turn this fic into something long???
This is me trying to make it up to you( and it was supposed to be longer but my monitor broke down after a power cut, this morning and it took quite a while to get a new one... Anyway, enjoy!) :
-------------------------------------------------------------
She had gone back to the waiting room and some doctor had informed her about Lukes injuries. Luke had been lucky but apparently one of his broken ribs had ripped a hole into his left lobe of the lung, which was why they had to opperate. His other organs were good but he also had a concussion, a laceration on his forehead, two more brocken ribs and a wiplash injury. She was shocked by the amount of his injuries but the doctor had asured her that none of them were dangerous.

2.45 a.m.. She sighed. Another half an hour until she could see him.
"Lorelai?"
The door opened and Christophers head appeared. She suddenly found herself getting really angry, as he hurried towards her. She was breaking under the weights on her shoulders.
"What are you doing here?" she hissed.
"Are you allright? You look horrible."
"You should be asking if he was allright! How dare you coming here? If you hadn´´t come here, I would be with him now. Sleeping in our bed, at home. Enjoying the peace. But no, as if you felt it, you had to come crashing into my life like you always do and take all the happiness away from me. I hate you Christopher, I hate you for coming here and I really dont want to see you right now! I want you to leave!"
Her face was flushed from anger, but she tried to calm herself down.
"Lorelai…"
"No! You have to go, now! I´´m sorry I can´´t help you with you daughter, but you will manage it on your own. I did when I was sixteen and you will too. And now please for once respect my needs and leave." She spoke more quietly now. Her eyes apologizing for saying that she hated him.
"Please Chris, I think you owe me big-time from the past and now is the time you can make it up to me. I´´m begging you, please leave!"
"I´´m sorry Lorelai. I didn´´t mean any harm by coming back... Well, call me when you´´re… when this is over." His eyes reflected his hurt, but he understood her. He nodded his goodbye and left.
Lorelai sighed deeply and sat down again, feeling so tired…

"You can go and see him now. But I don´´t expect to see him in his normal beauty, okay?"
She nodded slowly and let the nurse lead her to his room.
Lorelai stood in front of the door, staring at it, seeing his face appering in front of her. She lifted her left hand up to run her finger tips over his cheek. Trying to feel his stubble, trying to capture the feeling of his warm skin running along under her fingers.
Instead she came in contact with the cold door that was telling her where she was and why she was there.
Inhaling deeply she reached for the door handle and slowly opened the door.

Lorelais head was resting on his chest. He was absently stroking her hair while he watched her sleeping. She had a content smile on her face, her legs were entwined with his. He enjoyed his skin touching hers. And he enjoyed finally being able to watch her without having to hide it.
He watched her back moving up and down and deep down inside, he thanked God for giving him the oportunity to do so. It was amazing. The wonder of life.
How can she be so perfect? What did I do to deserve this? How can she make me feel so good, simply by breathing?
Aw geez, how can she make me think like that???

When she first saw him, she couldn't believe it was him. She wasn't prepared for a sight like that. She had thought that he wouldn't look too bad because exept for the laceration none of the injuries he had would normally leave any visible signs.
But there he was, lying infront of her, with tubes coming out of his body, looking pale, with dark circles under his eyes, looking so small and unprotected.
His eyes where glassy, she noticed when he opened them as he heard her come in. He tried to smile but he obviously wasn't strong enough to get his muscles to move. He wanted to give her a reassuring look and tried his best to do so.
"Lore..lai…" His voice was throaty from the tube that had been rubbing against his vocal chords when he was in surgery. The tube that had provided his lungs with oxygen, while he couldnt do it himself…
She knealed down besides his bed and took his hand in hers, being careful not to move it, so he wouldnt feel any pain from the movement. She started to wisper, tears running down her cheeks.
She tried to tell him what had happened but all that came out was a mixture of her feelings and last nights events. She wanted him to promise that he would never leave her but she couldnt form the words in her mouth. The thought of him leaving her was too painful.
He slightly lifted his thumb and ran it over her palm.
"Shhh… Im fine…"
She put her forehead on the edge of the matress and quietly sobbed into it.

Sometime later, she was sitting on a chair next to his bed, holding his hand and staring at him. Their eyes had been locked until he slowly closed his and fell asleep. She lost all sense of time watching him, making sure that his chest was moving up and down regularly.
Every once in a while she had to wipe her cheeks. She couldn´´t stop the tears, no matter how hard she tried. She also couldn´´t stop imagining what could have happened, how her life could have changed.
What if……
She knew why she couldnt stop thinking. She took a deep breath.
"I love you, Luke" she wispered slowly.
And then she said it again. It got easier with everytime. Her voice became stronger as she said it again.
And again, her voice soften, until she felt her own eyes shut but still seeing his image in front of her. Never forgetting any of his beatiful features.

Meanwhile, the person that had come into Lukes Diner hours ago was slowly recovering from anaesthesia:
Sina recognized the place where she was. The one place she never wanted to be again. The place that brought up so many memories of which she had tried to get rid off for some time and had only succeded after discovering the wonderful world of sleeping pills. Before that she hadnt been able to sleep for over three weeks.
The bags under her eyes wouldnt hide under make-up after the first week passed. But no one wondered why, back then...
And now, here she was. Terrified of falling asleep, too exhausted to stay awake.
Maybe, if I just take a nap, I wont see it...?
She closed her eyes and woke up again, half an hour later, sweating hard. The horrible immages were still going through her head, tears were still running down her cheeks. She should have known better. She should have stayed awake.
I just hope I didnt sceam. Or else Ill have to explain this.
But she had screamed and the nurse that entered her room was highly alarmed.
