Disclaimer: I don't own Gilmore Girls, I wish but I don't.

Summery: Loralai and Luke have been dating for 2 year. They go on a date for their two-year anniversaries. Not to good at summaries but you get the point.

Ties, dresses and I love yous

Luke Danes, coffee supplier by trade. But under the flannel T- shirt and backwards hat was a great guy, dare I say, a perfect guy. And right now he was sitting on the Gilmore girls couch fidgeting with his tie. He hated ties. A LOT. " So why am I wearing one?" He asked himself.

For her. It wasn't a very hard question to answer. Everything was always for her. The coffee addict that he had grown to love and adore. Ahh, Loralai Gilmore. One of a kind. Of course he wore a tie for her. He glanced down at his watch, 7:30. "Are you ready yet?"

Loralai stood in front of the bathroom mirror, carefully applying her eye make-up. She had been getting ready since 5 and was so rapped up in it that Luke had to let himself in. She stood back from the mirror to see how it looked when she heard him call from the living room. She rolled her eyes. " Don't you know that it is a tradition for the girl to take forever and the guy to sit and wait? Where have you been?" She called.

" Oh, okay. I forgot to read the Dating Manual. I should pick that up." He said as he reached for the remote. He might as well check the score.

She brushed her hair out of her face. No, maybe it should be down. She actually felt nervous, for the first time since… forever she was nervous about a date with Luke. That kind of scared her a little. "Okay, we can pick it up for you after dinner. Meanwhile, you could give me a minute."

It took him a total of two seconds to see what the score was, and then he was in silence, again. His foot vibrated impatiently. He had this night planed and it had to start at 8. "Now are you ready?"

She had finally decided to leave her hair down when he called to her for a second time. " Has it been a minute?"

" Yes." It came out of his mouth as a reflects. He didn't even look at his watch until he had answered. It had actually been 30 seconds.

"Okay then, I am ready." She walked out of the bathroom towards the living room. She went around the couch and Luke stood to meet her.

"How do I…" She wasn't able to finish her sentence. He was wearing a tie!

Luke stared at her. She was wearing a plane black dress, but it was beautiful. It took him a little to finally open his mouth. "Wow."

Loralai smiled, almost giddy. " Luke Danes, you are wearing a tie!" She cocked her eyebrow, " you look good in a tie." She wanted to kiss him, or at least touch him.

" Thank you." He said as he slipped his arms around her waist. " You look good in that dress."

" Why thank you. But I have to say, for the first time since we have dated I think you look prettier than me." She teased as her arms took their place around his neck.

Luke blushed. He wasn't really used to getting compliments, not that he didn't enjoy them. All he could do to reply was kiss her. He pressed his mouth on hers, gripping her tighter. She responded instantly, pushing her body into his. A moan escaped her throat as the kiss deepened. When they parted they were breathing heavily. Luke pressed his forehead against hers, needing to regain some sort of function. " I love you."

Loralai smiled and looked up at him. " I love you too."

Luke pushed her hair out of her face and kissed her forehead. He glanced at his watch and jumped. 7:45! He grabbed her hand and led her to the door. " Come on, reservations are at eight."

She squeezed his hand hard and when he turned around her eyes took up half her face. " Reservations?!? Where? Ohh, is it Maize and Buddy's?"

He opened the door and smiled back at her. " Maybe, come on we are going to be late."
