This is my first Fanfic story, so it might not be very good. I just wanted to know what you thought so please review. Even if you tink it's rubbish. Any way here goes:

"Hey, you love Garfield don't you Luke?" Lorelai questioned him as she entered the diner for her daily coffee fix.

She was followed by Rory, of course, and some guy he had never met before. He was tall and looked a little scruffy, he was wearing a leather jacket of a blain blue top and a pair of faded jeans. Maybe he's dating Lorelai. He thought, No. He can't be. She would have mentioned him. Wouldn't she?

He was brought back out of his thought when she started talking again.

"Nick and Rory don't believe me that Garfield is The Worlds Best Loved Cat! He thinks it Tom from Tom and Jerry. Rory doesn't believe that there was ever a programme to actually decide who was most beloved by the nation."

"I don't believe the was ever a show; but if you ask me Garfield wins hands down." He smiled at her, which she happily returned.

Nick and Rory sat down at a table by the window and Lorelai walked over to join them. A few minutes later Luke came over to take their orders.

"I think I'll have blueberry pancakes please?" Rory asked sweetly.

"Same for me please?" Nick told Luke

"And can I have… umm… WAFFLES?" Lorelai smiled up at him.

"Sure, and I'm guessing you want coffee?" He asked but he was already filling up there mugs. He walked away to give Caser their order. Why didn't she mention that she was dating someone? He wondered as he watched the three of the chatting from his position behind the counter. Why would she, you're just the guy at the diner with the coffee, that's all you'll ever be. So stop imagining it could ever be anything more.

Ring Ring

Rory fished out her phone from her bag and looked at the caller ID. It was Lane. She got up from the table and started towards the door, but stopped when she heard her mother call her name.

"Yeah?" She span around

"Can you ask Lane if she has that CD for me?"

"Sure." She replied and walked out of the diner.

Rory rejoined the couple a few minutes later, she told the couple that she was going to miss her bus if she didn't leave within the next five minutes. Just then Luke walked over to the table carrying a cup of coffee and a bag containing two brownies.

"Here." He handed them to Rory

"Thanks," She was looking in the bag to see what she was having for breakfast.

"Cool! Brownies! Thanks!" She hugged him. It was a little awkward but she didn't seem to mind.

"See you later Mum." Rory hugged Lorelai and left.

Lorelai and Nick carried on chatting about everything form their previous conversation about Garfield to the Hurricane warnings on the news this morning.

About half an hour after Rory had left Lorelai bounced over to the counter.

"Luke," She sang

"Yeah?" He replied in his usual grumpy tone

"How about we go on a double date?" She asked casually

"What?"

"You know. Me and Nick and You and…umm…"

"Ellie." He finished for her.

"Yeah Ellie. I was thinking we could go to the cinema or bowling or something. What do you think?"

"Um…. I don't know if that's the sort of thing Ellie is into."

"You've been dating for three months and you don't know if she likes bowling?" She smirked

"I'll ask her."

"Good! Bye Luke!" She quickly ran out of the diner to meet nick by his car. He saw Nick was on the phone, probably a business call. Luke couldn't help but notice that he didn't open Lorelai's car door for her. After the car pulled away he turned to get back to work.

2 Days Later. Friday Night.

He looked up when he heard the bells above the door, and as usual Lorelai walked in after another Friday Night Dinner with her parents. Tonight she was alone though, no Rory.

"Hey. Where's Rory?" He started pouring her coffee for her as she sat down at the counter.

" She wanted to go see Lane quickly. Guess what. Didyou know that I have been voted the worst daughter ever?" She took a sip of the magical liquid and set it back down on the counter.

"What?"

"Yeah, my mother told me tonight that everyone at the club had been talking about how teenagers these days are going completely off track, then someone mentioned me. They agreed that all the stuff their grandkids were up to these days nothing compared to what I did to my parents. It's not like I intended to get pregnant!" She sighed heavily and downed the rest of her coffee.

He refilled her cup,as she continued. "And she mentioned this about two minutes into to dinner. I just sat there listening to all of this, and then my Dad started talking about Christopher. About how we could have sorted it all out, If only I had listened. And that he is doing brilliantly now." She fought back the tears that were pricking at her eyes. "They have told me all of this thousands of times, but…" She trailed off. How can they humiliate me in front of Rory like that? Why did I let them humiliate me like that? Why do they always do this?

Luke walked over to her and hugged her close. He hated seeing her like this. How could her parents treat her like this?

She cried into his flannel shirt. She felt safe there. When he had his arms around her she felt as if no one could hurt her.

She pulled away suddenly and grabbed her coat. "I… um… I have to go!" She was still slipping her coat as she ran through the door of the diner towards her car.

She sat in the drivers seat of her jeep, which was still parked across form the diner, thinking about Luke. About what she had just felt, what she had thought. We are just friends! She kept telling herself. Just friends. But what if he felt the same? What if when he touched me he had felt the same? She mentally slapped herself. Of course he didn't. Everything about me bugs him. My eating habits, my addiction to coffee. So no more what ifs. She told her self as she started up the engine and pulled out into the road.

Luke stared at her; she was sitting in her car. He had no idea why she had run out like that. Her car pulled away but he stood there staring after her for about five minutes. He was mentally going through what had just happened, over and over again. He didn't think he had done any thing wrong. So then why had she just bolted like that?

The Next Night. Saturday.

Lorelai hadn't gone to the diner that morning. She was still wondering about all the feelings that she had felt the night before. She spent almost all night up thinking about everything, but had still not come up with any answers.

As she entered the diner ready for their double date she felt slightly awkward. "Luke" just then he walked down the stairs and pulled aside the curtain. She was speechless. He looked Hot! She felt a pang of jealousy shoot through her; but ignored it.

No, we are friends that is all. I'm not jealous! Just keep telling yourself that. What's that supposed to mean? Nothing.

She could feel the voices in her head arguing over how she felt, but when she heard Luke's voice she came back to reality.

"Um… Lorelai, about last night…"

She knew this was coming and had been thinking about what to say all day, but had come up with nothing. Well I'm nothing if I'm not creative. She thought.

"I… I just… I had to get home. I... forgot something." She stammered.

Yeah like he'll buy that. She mentally kicked herself for not being able to come up with a better excuse.

"Um… ok." He walked towards the door and held it open for her "I think we should get going then."

She walked out of the door and headed for Luke's truck. Before she could open the door he was by her side, he opened the door and shut it for her before walking round to the driver's side.

They drove in a comfortable silence, when Luke stopped his truck in front of the cinema he quickly walked around to help her out. Is this what it is like to go on a date with Luke? She couldn't help but wonder.

Please review. Should I carry on with this?
