Due to all the comments on the ONE PARAGRAPH thing, I've fished it
hopefully. Just for the record, it did not look like that when I typed it
in Word.
Hey, I'm a really big Java Junkie fan but unfortunately, this is my first
Gilmore Girls fanfic so bare with me. If you wanna read a really good Java
Junkie fic read the substitute, that's the best. Here we go, I don't own
any of the characters etc.
It was a normal Monday in Stars Hollow. It was still pretty early and Luke was cleaning the counter while he kept one eye on the door hoping to see her come in. It was early December and you could already smell the snow in the air. He wasn't in a particular good mood today. Jess had failed one of his classes, again. Note to self, he thought, get Rory to help him out. There was no way he was going to let Jess ran a dinner for a living. That boy could do so much more. The bell tingled and he briefly looked up, seeing Rory and Lorelai walk in. He looked down in order to hide the small smile that was involuntarily crept on his lips. It was amazing how one small whiff of her sent could change his attitude like that. He grabbed his pad and went towards the table the two girls, 'cause really, Lorelai was still a girl, had chosen next to the window. It was an unwritten code known by all of Luke's employees that if he was in the dinner, he, and only he, would serve Lorelai.
"So, what would you have today? By the way, don't even bother asking for coffee, you're not getting any," he told them, without even bothering to say hi. He was their food provider, that was all. Why should he kid himself? Plus, he always liked to hear Lorelai rant.
"Well, hi to you too Luke, and yes it is a very fine day we're having," Rory said with a cheerful smile.
" 'Morning to you too Rory." Luke had to admit he had a weak spot for this one.
"Hey Luke, is ummm," Rory said blushing slightly and stuttering a little, not a Rory trait.
"Jess? Yeah, he's upstairs. You can go if you want to, but tell him that I say he has to remember the RULES."
"Rules? Sure I'll tell him. Mom, I'll be right back." Rory took off her jacket and ran upstairs.
"So, what will it be today? Pancakes, bacon, and sausage? Maybe some eggs? I mean, your arteries are already so clogged up why don't we just finish them."
" HA HA, very funny Luke. I think I'll have a danish today and, of course, coffee; I need coffee," she said, adding her sexy smile making it harder to resist.
" No, no coffee. You're caffeine levels are already five times as normal." No Luke, no. Don't give in to the sexy pout.
"Luke, it's Monday, give me coffee. NOW."
"Oh yes, using the magic word, NOW, huh? That always works, doesn't it?" Come on Luke, take one for the team.
"But.." She started to say something but Caesar called Luke to the phone and he just walked away smiling. He then gave Caesar a glance that said "If you say something, I'll kill ya."
He grabbed the phone and said, "Luke's dinner, this is Luke, how can I help you?"
"Well, hello Luke, how does the day find you?"
"Rachel?!"
" Good one genius! Listen up, I don't have much time. The natives here in Toluca let me borrow their phone."
"Isn't that in Mexico somewhere?"
"Did you miss the listen part? So anyway, I'm going to Peru in two weeks and I was wondering if you'd like to go with me since Jess is going to be with his mom I presume, I mean, it's Christmas!"
Luke couldn't believe she could say so much with only one breath, "Umm I don't know, I'm not sure Jess is leaving actually. How long are you staying there for?" Of curse, old Luke could not do one spontaneous thing in his life, everything was now a routine.
" That's the beauty, we can stay as long as we want! Look, I've gotta go, but I promise to call you back soon. Think about it, its summer down there. Well, bye, I'll talk to you soon."
With that, Rachel hung up. Luke had to take a minute to collect his thoughts and evaluate everything that had happened in the past two seconds, it seemed. Why shouldn't he go? He was still a pretty young guy who had never been out of the country except for that one time he went to Canada for a ball game. Hanging out at the beach wouldn't be that bad and anything involving Rachel would be fun. Then, he turned around and saw the one thing that was making him doubt, sitting there, smiling; because she had somehow gotten coffee.
.
What will happen next? Will Luke leave and forget about Lorelai? Will he be captured by some Incas? Stay tuned!
