Title: Down To You
Summary: When a new guy comes to Stars Hollow, he hits things off with Lorelai. They seem like the perfect couple, and Luke is happy for them. Ha! Yeah right.
Pairings: L/L L/D(undertones) R/J L/?
A/N: I usually just write a story and after like three chapters or so I'm done with it, not this time. I want to take a different approach and actually finish one of my stories. Yay! , Well I'm going to try to get a lot of R/J action - and of course get some L/L action too. Oh yeah one more thing, I'm not going make Luke spontaneously kiss Lorelai or do something like that - (well I AM going to make them kiss but you get it) because if Luke was a spontaneous kind of guy then trust me Luke and Lorelai would be together by now. Okay folks sorry for boring you with my enormous Author's Note - okay whatever on with the story!

Lorelai was in the diner when she saw him, tall - with dark brown hair and killer eyes. He was wearing a leather jacket and from a distance she almost mistaken him as Christopher. He walked towards the diner and she almost fell backwards off her chair.
The door opened and the stranger walked in. The cold from the outside gave Lorelai a chill; she tried not to stare at him so she quickly grabbed a menu when he walked past her.
"Coffee please." The stranger asked Luke when he reached the counter. Luke turned around to pour him some coffee. Lorelai stood up from where she was sitting and walked casually to the counter. The stranger smiled at her, and she returned the smile.
"Hi, I'm Charlie." Charlie said reaching out his hand. Lorelai shook his hand as was surprised to see him have a strong grip. She smiled again - still holding his hand. From behind the counter Luke cleared his throat and Lorelai quickly took his hand out of Charlie's.
"I'm Lorelai." Lorelai finally said. She sighed; it took her a long time to tell him her name, which made her feel stupid. "So, Charlie huh? Like in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory"?"
"Yeah, I guess. But I don't think my parents had any intention of naming me after a character in a movie, and I have nothing against the movie - I love it."
"Me too, it's my all time favorite movie."
"Really? But I have to admit the first time I saw it I was scared of the oompa-loompas."
"What? How could you be afraid of those cute things?"
"Well, they freaked me out."
Luke couldn't believe the conversation these two were having. Oompa-Loompas and movies? He was really uncomfortable standing in front of them. 'Geez, can't they talk about normal things?' He thought. "Here's your coffee." He said to Charlie.
"Oh, thanks. Here you go." Charlie said handing Luke money. "I'll see you around." Charlie said to Lorelai. He left and Lorelai watched him cross the street and she sighed. He seemed really perfect and he liked "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory." He also was good-looking and had a great personality he also drank coffee!
Luke snapped his fingers in front of her. Lorelai looked up and saw Luke looking at her. "What do I have something on my face?" Lorelai grabbed a napkin holder and looked at it like a mirror.
"Lorelai, relax. There's nothing on your face. You were just in a daze." Luke said grabbing the napkin holder from her.
"Oh, well then okay."
"He seems like a nice guy right?"
"Who? - Oh, you mean Charlie? Yeah, he's seems nice."
"I mean you were talking about oompa-loompas and chocolate factories."
"Aw, poor Lucas feels left out. I'm sorry for not including you in our conversion. It's just I don't think you've seen "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory."
"Actually the movie is called "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory". The book is called Charlie and the Chocolate Factory." Luke said
"Oh, wow. Aren't we the movie and book guy now?" Lorelai said smiling.
"No, well I read the book when I was younger and I saw parts of the movie."
"Oh, and did oompa-loompas scare you too?"
"No, I thought they were stupid."
"Ah, Luke how could you say such a thing?" Lorelai said sarcastically.
"Well they were orange little people popping from the screen."
"No, they were cute little people that looked adorable in the movie." Lorelai said defensively. Luke rolled his eyes at her and he picked up an old rag and began scrubbing the counter. Rory and Lane walked in the diner and sat on opposite ends of Lorelai.
"Hey mom what's up?" Rory said putting down her backpack.
"Nothing, but I did meet this handsome guy. He liked coffee and "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory." She said excitedly.
"Really? Well there's a good catch." Rory said
"Hey, don't you have a boyfriend already?" Lorelai said looking at her daughter.
"Yes." Rory said smiling.
"And what about you Lane? Tell your mom about Dave yet?" Lorelai said now facing Lane.
"Well Momma DOES know about Dave, but she knows him as David, member of a Christian Combo. But she doesn't know about my Dave. The Dave that plays in the same band I'm in and is a great guitar player."
"Since when was he YOUR Dave?" asked Rory
"Well I don't know." Lane said
"I think you should tell her soon. I mean she's going to find out." Lorelai said. "Yeah, I know." Lane said "Uh-oh. It's already 7:00. I'm late for bible class."
Jess came inside the diner looking tired. Rory walked over to him and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.
"Hey, what's wrong?" she asked him
"I'm just tired."
"Too tired to go out tonight?"
"No, of course not." Jess said smirking
"Hey you too." Lorelai called out to the young couple.
"Sorry mom."
"Yeah, yeah. Just be back by 12 okay?"
Rory and Jess left the diner, Lorelai turned back to Luke who was getting ready to close up.
"Isn't it early to close up?"
"Yeah, but there's a stupid town meeting remember?" Luke said wiping the tables.
"Oh, yeah. Well hurry up and lets walk to Miss Patty's together."
