Chris' home:

Lorelai Gilmore blinked as the sun shone through the window. When her eyes were focused open she saw Christopher laying beside her. Inside she panicked. What am I doing? She thought as she sat up in the bed. What am I doing here with Chris? After a thought she recalled yesterday's events.

She remembered telling Luke to elope with her, but he said it was too fast. She told him that she loved him and was ready, and Luke replied that he loved her too, but it would take time, especially since he had April to consider. She was tired of waiting to start her life…she loved Luke. If that's the case, she thought in response then why did I come to Chris? This was obvious. Rory was still at school, she couldn't go to her parents and Sookie was more than likely in bed. Chris was the only person she could talk to. She only wanted comfort from the shock of the moment, but didn't expect to let herself go. She vaguely remembered telling Chris her problem and out of comfort he let her cry in his lap. The rest she forgot but gathering where she was she knew what had happened.

She knew that she had made a mistake. How would she tell Luke? Was it over between the? Did he not love her anymore? Lorelai groaned and let her legs drop to the edge of the bed and stood up. Quietly she got her clothes and went to the bathroom and put them on. Now clothed, she left the room and headed back to her home. Only time would answer the questions running through her mind concerning how the relationship between her and Luke would stand.

Gilmore Home:

"Hey, Sookie." Lorelai said. She was home and now on the phone.

"Hey, Lorelai, what's going on?"

"I need coffee. I'm out. Do you mind if I come over?"

"Uh, yeah. But why not go to Luke's. you always go there."

Lorelai sighed, "It's complicated. Details when I get there. Right now I suffereing from a lack of caffeine."

"right…caffeine first, then details."

"You know me well."

"What else does a best friend do?

They both laughed though Lorelai struggled to. "Bye" she said.

"See ya soon."

Lorelai sighed as she recalled yet again the past events. It was hard for her, though, since the experience was painful, and the fact that she couldn't function fully without her coffee and so, she headed to Sookie's home.

Sookie's:

The fresh smell of coffee met her as she opened the door to sookie's home. along with breakfast she was cooking.

"hey, coffee's in the pot. help yourself. I almost done cooking breakfast." sookie said upon seeing Lorelai in the kitchen doorway.

"Great, Thanks." Lorelai replied heading to the coffee. "You know sookie you really don't have too make me breakfast."

Sookie turned and looked toward her friend. "I know, but i figured since you aren't getting breakfast at Luke's you need some kind of breakfast. Don't feel guilty I'm happy to make this for you." With that she continued to cook.

Lorelai didn't say anything and returned to her coffee, thoroughly enjoying it. When she was finished eating Sookie dove in to the question she was dying to ask.

"So what's going on?" she asked

"What?" Lorelai replied

"What's going on with you and Luke?"

"I don't know what you're saying." Lorelai defended though she knew that she was lying. she had hoped that Sookie would avoid that question, though she didn't quite expect her not to be interested in her relationship with Luke, being her best friend.

"You always go to Luke's and when today you didn't go, there has to be something going on that makes you not want to see him."

Lorelai sighed, "Well, I guess you should know since eventually it will be spread throughout the town. Yesterday i went to my mother's home and found out that she had invited Christopher and this other woman over in hopes of making a match. Turns out, the woman was a physiatrist and I ended up talking to her about Luke and my family. It was when I talked about Luke that I realized that I really loved him and I began to become impatient. I wanted to marry Luke, and start my life. So latter I went over to Luke's and suggested that we elope. He told me that we'll eventually get married. I remember telling him that I love him and that if he loved me as well he would elope with me. I didn't really know at that time what I was asking but he replied that he had April to consider. I was hurt.

"You mean you were going to elope and not have Rory come. i though you wanted Rory to see you get married, and what about your best friend."

"I don't know all I wanted really was conformation that he really did love me. I'm sure if he had said yes arrangements would have been made."

"What did you do then?"

"Well, I left very upset, and wanted someone to talk to. The only person that was available was Chris. This morning when I woke I found myself beside Chris."

"You didn't!"

"Yes, and I can't tell him. As of now I don't know what he thinks of me, and him knowing about his would only make the situation worse." Lorelai replied.

"I understand, but he'll find out eventually. It might as well be from you."

"I guess. we should get to work, do you mind driving?"

"Sure, I'll drive, let me finish cleaning the dishes and we'll head off."

Sookie got up and took the dishes to wash them. Just than Lorelai's phone rang. She opened her purse and brought the phone out. Flipping it open she answered.

"Hello."'

"Hey." The person answered.

"Chris?" Lorelai asked in a whispher, she didn't want sookie to hear.

"Yeah, just wanted to check on you, you seemed awful last night."

"Well, I had to talk to someone."

"Yes, and you came to me."

"What do you want chris?"

"Why'd you leave?"

"because I have a job."

"You could have taken the day off, you know."

"Well, Michel just wouldn't allow it. I came to you yesterday just for comfort, I didn't mean anything by it, just a spur of the moment thing."

"Are you going to throw away our relationship we have now?"

"Well, no offence,but you don't have the best future of staying with me. And you forget…I'm engaged."

"Are you sure, because the way things appeared yesterday it didn't seem that the wedding was going to happen. to happen. I thought it was over between you too, and maybe, just maybe I had a chance. Apparently you still love him."

"Chris-"

Before Lorelai could continue she was interrupted.

"No, it's ok. I understand. Just to let you know though, I really thought we had a chance. See you around, I guess." With that she heard a click.

Lorelai just stood there full of unrelenting emotions, but with the little self control she had left calmed herself down before sookie could realized thatsomething elsewas wrong.

What was wrong with her relationships that are always destined to fail. It happened with Max, and Chris several times, and now Luke. She seemed destined to have a full share of problems with her relationships. Still torn and broken she got upand headed to work with Sookie.

Luke's Diner:

Lorelai stood outside of Luke's diner wondering if she should go in. She was bound to have to talk to Luke sometime and to her it seemed like she might as well get it over with. Luke was standing there working the cash resister, and with all the strength she had left walked in.

"Hey, stranger" Lorelai weakly said.

Luke looked up and smiled. This comforted her greatly. "hey, you weren't here this morning...do you want coffee?"

Lorelai nodded, "yeah, sounds great."

Luke got her some coffee, and she took a sip. "Luke, i need to talk to you."

"Don't worry about that, i know you didn't mean anything by your spurt last night. you were at your mother's and you more than likely had something to drink"

Lorelai sighed. If that was only all i had to talk about, she though painfully. "No, i really need to talk to you. possibly outside."

Luke paused from cleaning the counter, "yeah, sure, ok. Let's talk."

Both went outside of the dinner as Lorelai requested.

"What, what's the matter?" Luke asked.

"I don't know how to say this but when we had our little argument last night i was hurt and confused. I needed someone to talk to and, well i went to chris' and...well i don't remember much but when i woke up i found that i had slept with him."

"do you mean that just becasue i refused to elope at that moment you asked to you went to Chris' and was stupid enough to sleep with him?"

Lorelai painfully nodded.

Luke looked frustrated and was upset. He seemed to be asking himself why.

"I...I'm sorry." she replied

"sorry doesn't cut what you just did. i don't think that it is a wise decision that the first thing you do when your upset is to go to his house!We are engaged...doesn't that mean anything to you?"

Lorelai felt that she was on the verge of tears as she saw the man she loved really upset. she knew all he said was true and she really was sorry. it was her mistake and she had to suffer the concequences. She didn't want to lose him though.

"I know, i was stupid i felt empty. i felt that you didn't love me."

"Love you? do you think when you propsoed that i just agreed to marry you for the heak of it? No! I already went through one marraige maybe nota long one but long enough to know i don't enter into one so hastly. That alone should prove how much i loved you"

loved, she thought, loved, as in the past and no more.

"I, I love you." Lorelai stampered through tears running down her cheek.

"I'm not sure you do, and i not sure how i feel anymore now. I think we should call off the engagement."

Luke turn and walked into the diner without another word and left Lorelai with streaming tears. With her hands shaking, lorelai took out her cellphone and punched in some numbers.

"Hey, Sookie, can you come over and help me pack?"

Well that's the prolouge. don't worry this is a LL story. this is only the prolouge
