So in Love with You

When she saw his face, some sort of deep longing in her heart just welled up and pestered her continuously. She'd tried to ignore it, and for the most part had been successful.

They were broken up, and she wasn't about to give in to those desires to hold and kiss him.

That's not the way things worked, and she wouldn't let herself be that way.

Lorelai Gilmore had avoided her ex-boyfriend Luke pretty well these past couple of weeks, considering the size of Star's Hollow. But almost every day, there was a reason to pass close to the diner, and memory after memory assaulted her when she saw the swinging sign and curtained windows.

It was like a dagger in her heart every time.

Now you were after me for so long
But I would walk by ignore you and roll on
Had all I needed just thinking I'm so strong
Just believing that nothing could go wrong
But never seeing just really what goes on
You'd start speaking I was like hold on

The days were long and lonely, the nights were longer and more forlorn. Her mind wouldn't stay away from Luke, no matter how she tried.

She just kept remembering good old times between them, both ancient ones before they'd been in a relationship and more recent ones when they were the happiest couple in the world.

Tonight, working with the elementary school on their play, Lorelai was even worse off. Luke was there, not too far away and her heart was doing absolute flip-flops, as was her stomach.

But she was brave, and she wouldn't give in.

I'm just fending like I could do no wrong
All that time I'm out cheating just all along
But looking back I was treating you so wrong
I admit that it's seeming I chose wrong
But I've been meaning to change now for so long
And this is the reason I wrote just the whole song

Tap, tap, tap!

She heard the insistent knocking on the front door from where she was absent-mindedly sitting at the kitchen table. With a sigh, she stood and wandered to the foyer.

When Lorelai saw Luke standing outside through the glass, she couldn't describe the surge of feelings that completely ambushed her, no matter how she tried. If her stomach and heart had been doing flip-flops before at the school, now they were going in knots and doing crazy gymnastics.

Oh, God, let him be here to apologize! Lorelai silently begged.

As, she swung open the door, she could've sworn she was fainting.

If she had been, Luke gave her no chance to fall to the ground as he stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her, bringing his lips to hers in a passionate kiss.

Lorelai forgot her worries and her crazy stomach, feeling all of the weeks' past longing turn into passion as she responded to the kiss.

You are all I ever need
You are my everything
You are my only thing
And the reason why I sing

Subconsciously as she continued kissing Luke, Lorelai slammed the front door shut.

Just like that well everything changed
And I started looking at you in a whole different way
And its kind of strange but really I'm amazed
How you caught my eye and you called my name
I'm the type of guy who thought he had it made
But I can't lie ain't nothing been the same
Since the time I changed and you came my way
Re-arranged my whole space in such major ways
The way I feel… I just can't explain
And this is the only way I can sum up what I'm saying

It was heaven to wake up for the first time in a while with Luke at her side. Sweet bliss. She couldn't even begin to describe the surge of relief in her heart, or the depths to which it went.

She just smiled at him as he continued to sleep away.

You are all I ever need
You are my everything
You are my only thing
And the reason why I sing

The days weren't quite as long and endless anymore. They were happy again, and just as finely crafted as they'd been before the whole messy break-up.

Whole.

Lorelai's heart was finally whole again.

Now we been together for a while now
And every day you find a way to make me smile now
So all I gotta say just every time now
I don't ever want to stray just any time now
I just want to know all your ways just every time now
And just for all my days I want to find out
That your love and your grace well it's all mine now
And this is all I can say in every rhyme now is that...

As her partner stirred, Lorelai found herself smiling even brighter to his opening eyes.

"Mm, good morning," he muttered sleepily.

"Good morning," she replied a little brighter. "Let's make a habit of this making up—we'll just have to skip over the breaking-up step. That one was no fun."

Luke nodded in agreement. "That was no fun at all. The worst weeks of my entire life, I think."

"Oh, good. Mine too." Her smile slowly grew smaller, until she thought of one of her trademark quips and let her smile grow big again. "Let's see if we can get the Men in Black to erase that particular part of our memories."

As his smile belied his rolling eyes, Luke yawned.

"I love you," Lorelai murmured.

Luke smiled in return as he replied. "I love you, too."

I can't get enough
So in love with you
This is what I want to do
Is be so in love with you

THE END

Ok, now you review. NOW!
