Gilmore Girls: One Shots/Story Ideas

You Are The Reason

When Rory calls for car to pick her up in New Hampshire, she doesn't know that the service was demanded to not send a car to one Rory Gilmore. An old friend steps in to help. Once a song comes across the radio, it gives perspective to Rory's mind.

Song: You Are The Reason by Calum Scott feat. Leona Lewis

***

Rory was in the car, she called for, driving away from King's Head Inn in New Hampshire. Silent tears fell from her face knowing it was the end and she could never be with him again. It was silent in the vehicle until the driver turned the station over. Static filled the air until a song started to play, and a male's voice started to sing.

There goes my heart beating
'Cause you are the reason
I'm losing my sleep
Please come back now

The last lyrics caught Rory's attention, she turned, tear-faced to the front of the car seeing displayed on the screen, the song title: You Are The Reason by Calum Scott ft. Leona Lewis.

There goes my mind racing
And you are the reason
That I'm still breathing
I'm hopeless now

Rory sat up straight, wiping her tears off her face. She was listening intently to the lyrics.

I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean

Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken

Oh, 'cause I need you to see
That you are the reason

Rory's mind was spinning, thinking, processing the words that were being sung.

There goes my hand shaking
And you are the reason
My heart keeps bleeding
I need you now

If I could turn back the clock
I'd make sure the light defeated the dark
I'd spend every hour, of every day
Keeping you safe

Rory had a small smile grace her lips.

And I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, 'cause I need you to see
That you are the reason, oh
(I don't wanna fight no more)
(I don't wanna hurt no more)
(I don't wanna cry no more)
(Come back, I need you to hold me closer now)
You are the reason, oh
(Just a little closer now)
(Come a little closer now)
(I need you to hold me tonight)

Rory's mind finally clicked, "Excuse me, driver, but can you please turn the car around. Right now. I, uh, forgot something at the Inn." Rory said rushed as she tapped the driver's seat. The driver nodded, with a small smirk on his face, though Rory didn't notice.

I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
'Cause I need you to see
That you are the reason

The car stops a minute later in front of a black SUV. Logan was talking to the boys as they went to the car. Their backs were to the car that Rory was in.

As Rory hurriedly exited the car and slammed the door. Only one person heard it.

Colin glanced back and saw Rory heading straight to Logan. Colin smiled and nudged Finn.

Finn looked at him weirdly then saw what he was looking at.

And in the blink of an eye, Logan stopped in his place.
