Summary: Takes place during Nag Hammadi is Where They Found The Gnostic Gospels. What if Lorelai had gotten a guy to take her like her mom wanted...a guy being Luke. No Nicole but there is a Jason for now. LL

Disclaimer: Guess what . . . . . I don't own Gilmore Girls. I know shocking.

Lorelai's house, her and Lane are trying to fix the broken window with saran wrap and barbie band-aids when the phone rings.

"Hello?"

"It's a complete disaster!" Emily's voice states.

"My existence?" Lorelai rolls her eyes wondering what is happening in Emily's world.

"Not everything is about you Lorelai!"

"Oh, Sorry"

"The rare manuscripts acquisition fundraiser is tonight and we still haven't filled our table. I'm four people short."

"The Burles are going to visit their daughter in New Hampshire." Richard said in the background.

"Well then they can just go straight to hell, then can't they?"

"Mom, I already said I'd go."

"But we still have a half empty table."

"Well, fewer people to fight over the centerpiece."

"Stop it! This is not funny. The last person who didn't fill her table was Loretta Bobbins. Do you remember Loretta Bobbins?"

"No." Lorelai sighed.

"Exactly! Once you do not fill a table, you don't get another table to fill. You are off the list."

"Mom, that's not going to happen to you."

"You said you would come."

"I am coming."

"And you're bringing someone?"

"I never said I was bringing someone." Oh great she thought now I am going to have to find someone.

"Well, I'm telling you to now."

"Bring Rory too then we will only have 1 empty seat."

"Fine."

"All right I'll see you tonight at six o'clock sharp and don't wear those pantyhose with the seams up the back, you look like 10 cents a dance."

Lorelai hung up the phone.

"Great how am I going to find a date in 6 hours?"

"What?" Lane asks.

"My mom has this thing she is dragging me to tonight and now she tells me I have to bring a date."

"How about Luke? He would do it for you/"

"I guess I just don't want to bug him."

"I think you should ask him."

"Yea I will, thanks Lane." Lorelai leaves and heads towards the diner.

At the Diner

"Hey Luke?" Lorelai asked as Luke walked by with a bunch of plates.

"I'll be with you in a minute."

"Ya okay"

"Ok so what's up?" Luke asks as he leans against the counter across from where she is sitting.

"Well mm mom is dragging me to this thing tonight and now she wants me to bring a date so I was wondering if maybe . . . you would come, now before you say no, I understand that you don't want to do it but I really need you to, please, I'll do anything . . "

"Okay."

"Ok what?"

"Ok Ill go."

"Ehhhhh!" Lorelai screeched as she jumped up and hugged him. "Thank you thank you thank you."

"No Problem."

"K Rory and I will pick you up at 5:30"

"Sounds good."

"Thank you Luke." With that Lorelai was out the door practically skipping down the street.

At the Party

Lorelai, Luke, and Rory walk in the party. Emily spots them and runs over.

"So Lorelai you did actually find a man to bring"

"Yes mom, this is my friend Luke, Luke this is my mother, Emily Gilmore."

"Nice to meet you Mrs. Gilmore."

"Oh call me Emily."

"Ok Emily."

"Well we can't just stand here lets go." The four walk to the table.

"Lorelai you said that you and this man are just friends?" Emily whispered

"Yes mom." They go to the table and sat down.

"Ok Luke and Lorelai pretend you guys are together."

"Um Ok mom." Lorelai grabs Luke's hand, surprised by the spark that she feels. Wondering if he felt it to.

"Marjorie, Shawna, this is my daughter Lorelai, her boyfriend Luke, and my granddaughter Rory."

"Nice to meet you." Rory says

Jason walks up and sees Lorelai and Luke holding hands.

"Hello everyone" he says coldly glaring at Lorelai and this man she was holding hands with.

"Jason" Lorelai says surprised.

"Hello Jason." Emily says. "Lorelai introduce you're friend"

"Jason, Luke, Luke, Jason."

"Nice to meet you." Luke smiles politely wondering why he was glaring at Lorelai so intensely.

"Jason sit over there next to Shawna and pretend you are together."

"Good idea Emily." Richard says as he comes and sits. Jason puts his arm around Shawna still glaring at Lorelai who is glaring right back.

"Richard this is Lorelai's friend Luke."

"Nice to meet you Mr. Gilmore."

"Ah, please call me Richard."

Lorelai and Jason continue to glare at each other. Jason scoots closer to his 'date' and starts flirting with her. Lorelai's face turns to hurt which does not go unnoticed by Luke.

"Are you ok?" he whispered in Lorelai's ear.

"Um yea."

"Ok. . ." Luke says not believe her but dropping it anyway. The dinner starts and everyone chats comfortable. After dinner people start getting up and dancing.

"Lets dance." Luke stands up offering his hand to Lorelai. She takes it and they walk to the dance floor.

"I didn't know you danced, you've been holding out on me Lucas Dances."

"I don't dance, I wanted to talk to you alone and figured this was the way to do it. So I know you aren't okay. What's wrong?"

"Well Jason and I are-were kinda dating."

"Were?" Luke asks as he pulled her in closer. She felt the spark again and looked up seeing his expression she knew he had felt it too.

"Well are I guess but not for very long." She looked past Luke at Jason who was now busy kissing Shawna.

"I'm sorry Lorelai, you don't deserve that." Lorelai looked back up in to his eyes see how much he cared for her.

"Wow." she commented.

"What?"

"Ummm. . . nothing" Lorelai blushed not realizing she had said wow out loud.

"Would you . . . ummm. . . . like to go out. . . with me sometime? I mean if its not too soon and all." Luke looked at her and seeing her expression panicked. "I shouldn't have asked, of course its too soon. What was I thinking. I'm sorry. . . " As much as Lorelai loved ranting Luke she put her finger up to his lips.

"Shhh." she whispered "I would love to"

"Really?"

"Yes really" she leaned closer now resting her head on Luke's chest.

"Okay good." Luke smiled one of his rare full smiles.
