"Lorelai Gilmore" Emily snapped at the dinner table dropping her knife and fork that was deeply pressed into steak.
"I'm sorry mother but I do not want to go to some stupid old people party with my parents and their business people" Lorelai groaned trying to shove all her food in her mouth in a polite manner. Her stomach growled wanting more.
"This party isn't full of old people, and besides it's out of town so what are you suppose to do for the weekend if you don't go?" Richard asked.
"Gee I wonder dad, what a teenage girl like me could do in a big house"
"Great Richard, she plans on throwing a party herself."
"No, I was talking about staying home, watching television, doing my nails."
"You can spend time with Christopher" Richard suggested making Lorelai sigh. A frustration filled her stomach once the name was mentioned.
"Yeah, see I have a lot to do, just leave me for the weekend and I will be fine." Lorelai smiled and innocent smile while flashing her bright eyes at both of her parents as they finally sighed and agreed.
Straight after dinner Richard and Emily got to packing making sure they have everything plus more. Then went to bed. Lorelai was restless and couldn't go to sleep so she got up and decided to call Chris to maybe call it truce.
"Hello?" A tired voice mumbled into the phone.
"Chris? It's Lor" She whispered biting onto her bottom lip afraid he would yell then hang up.
"Oh hey, you do know how to tell time don't you?" He asked sighing and sitting up.
"Sometimes its hard, I get confused with the big and small pointy thing" She grinned hoping the joke would let him know she doesn't want to fight.
"So what do you want?"
"Oh, uh so I was wondering, if maybe you wanted to hang out and talk this weekend. My parents are leaving for some stupid party. Leaving me all alone in this big scary house"
"I don't know" He moaned. Then an awkward silence fell over them. "yeah, I'd like that. I just don't want to fight with you." He replied making a smile appear across Lorelai's face. But still an uncertainty filled her gut, telling her Chris is a no go. A bad seed. "There is even a party this weekend. Let me take you. Tomorrow night"
"Okay, that sounds nice" She smiled.
"Have to go Lor, I've missed you" He said then clicked the phone off ready to pass out.
"Yeah" She mumbled into the phone receiver then slowly clicking it off. She sighed feeling a weight getting lifted off her shoulder but still confused and un sure feeling filled her. She just rolled over and closed her eyes forcing herself to fall asleep.
"Luke!" Liz, his sister walks into his room. "Hey big brother" She smiled sitting on his bed as he ran around looking for things.
"I'm kind of busy Lizzie" He sighed pushing things aside trying to make a walk way to his closet.
"Yeah, I see. Well there is a party down the street at a friend's house. Carrie, you know" She grinned then winked. "Dad said I can't go unless you go. So"
"No" he interrupted her.
"Aw common Luke! Just one little party we won't stay long I just want to see a few people that are in town for only a day or so. Please" She begged, grabbing his arm to make him stop and look at her straight in the eyes.
After a few short moments he sighed in defeat and nodded agreeing to take her to crazy Carrie's house later that night.
Liz smiled in triumph, knowing he couldn't resist his younger sister. "Thanks big bro, you'll have fun. I can feel it."
"Lor, I'm sure you look fine. It's just a little party with some beer probably" Chris yelled up her stairs as he watched his watch. "We were suppose to be there by now, remember it's a 20 minute ride." He hollered again.
"Chill out, we are just going to arrive fashionably late" Lorelai came skipping down the stairs in a short summer dress that ended a little above her knees. It was a black dress and her hair laid naturally wavy on her shoulders. She smiled and kissed Chris on his cheek slightly.
"You look dazzling. But there was no need everyone else will be in jeans and tennis shoes."
"Then it's good to know I'll be the best looking one there" She smiled grabbing her jacket and walking out getting into his car. The ride was silent and awkward, an elephant still rested in the atmosphere around them but neither wanted to mention until at least the party was over.
"Hello Luke, great to see you again" Carrie opened the door. Liz touched her shoulder then went past Carrie as she stood there getting closer to Luke making him shift around trying to think of a reason to leave.
"Excuse me" Lorelai's voice appeared behind him. Luke turned allowing her to pass, he kept an eye on her realizing he hasn't seen her around anywhere.
"I'm going to get a drink" He pushed past Carrie, and finally made it to the 'punch' table. He poured himself a glass and started to munch on some carrots that was un-touched. Carrie must have known Luke was coming, no other teenager would eat carrots at a party.
"Some party" Lorelai stood next to him as she got herself a glass also. He grinned but didn't look up at her. "I don't even live in this town. My friend, well I guess boyfriend. I don't know. Well he brought me here and I don't even know where he is" She rambled on picking up a cupcake and licking only the frosting off.
"I'm sorry" Luke managed to mumble out. He glanced up to her and noticed her bright blue eyes and dazzling smile.
"Thanks" She starred back at him. Silence fell over them then she jumped and sighed. Obviously looking past Luke now. Tears formed in her eyes but she didn't let them out. Luke turned but only saw a boy making out with Carrie.
"Is that. Your friend?" He asked once it dawned on him the possible situation due to her response.
She grinned and looked down. "Yeah," Lorelai then looked up to the ceiling and smiled. "Just great. We just started talking again. This same thing happened before and, well I'm stupid to fall for the same act twice" She grumbled. Luke wanted to comfort her but didn't even knew her name.
"Luke" he said. She jumped and glared at him. "My name is Luke"
"Oh, Lorelai" She replied sticking out her hand, once he touched her soft skin he started to melt. He hated most people and socializing and doesn't warm up very easily, but whenever he got a certain gut feeling he knew if they were going to be friends or not. Right when they looked at each other again his gut felt like it was doing flips.
"You wanna come back to my place for some pop or something? Then maybe I can drive you home or my father who ever you want" Luke kindly asked. Lorelai glanced over to Chris who was getting very friendly with the crazy looking girl.
"Yeah, that's sounds nice. Thank you" She smiled allowing him to lead her out. "wow this is your place?" She questioned once they got there.
"Yup, me, my dad, and sister live here. It's okay I guess." he smiled unlocking the door. "So you want some pop or tea?"
"Do you have any coffee?" Luke then glanced at her and sighed.
"yeah, even though coffee is bad for you, I guess I can get you some." He mumbled. She smiled at him for a response.
"Where is your dad?"
"Must still be at work."
"You sure you can take me home? I live in Hartford" She asked taking a sip of coffee. "O MY GOSH" She suddenly busted before he could reply. "This is amazing coffee" She closed her eyes and took another sip letting the flavor and everything flow into her system.
Luke shook his head and sighed. "Yeah I can take you home whenever you want I guess."
"So what would you do if I said I didn't want to go home?" She asked pouring herself another glass of coffee.
"Then, well. I don't know? I guess you can crash here. we have another bed or couch whatever you prefer." He informed her.
"Bed please" Luke started at her confused.
"Take mine then, I'll sleep on the couch"
"No, then never mind I'll take the couch" She insisted.
"Really It's fine, it's just for one night anyway. Just take it." He commanded. She then smiled and nodded.
"Thanks Luke. You really saved me tonight. I felt like a lost puppy. But someone took me in" She smiled.
"As long as your housebroken it's no problem" he grinned. Luke got lost in her eyes again, just amazingly bright blue orbs of light making him the fly and falling for it.
"Do you have a shirt I can borrow?" She asked breaking the silence. He quickly woke up from his trance and quickly gave her a red button up flannel shirt. Luke left and a couple moments later she opened the door revealing her small frame in only his shirt which ended at her thigh showing off most of her body still.
"I have shorts if you wa-"
"No this is cozy" She interrupted, "it's fine. It is for only one night" She smiled then skipped back to his bed and jumping under the covers.
"Good night" Luke said turning the lights off and turning around.
"WAIT!" She called forcing him to stop and turn towards her again. "Thanks again for everything" She smiled. He just nodded and went into the living room. Once he took of his shoes and laid back a sudden wave of sleepiness hit him. His eyes grew heavy and then decided to shut.
"Luke" Lorelai whispered sitting next to him on the couch. "Luke, wake up" She slightly shook him forcing him to moan.
"What is it?" He asked forcing himself to open his eyes. He glanced up at her frightened eyes.
"This is going to sound extremely stupid, but do you have a stuffed animal?"
"What?"
"See I had a bad dream and well I need something to cuddle with to fall back to sleep." By now Luke sat up rubbing his eyes noticing both his dad's and sister's shoes are put by the door. Indicating they are both home and asleep.
"Uh, no sorry. Not really a stuffed animal type of guy." Lorelai slightly smiled, but was still scared. "I'll lay next to you for just a little bit. Okay?" Lorelai quickly smiled and nodded her head yes.
Luke got up and walked aimlessly around trying to gain balance. Lorelai finally decided to grab his hand and help him. Luke felt himself stiffen up once their hands entwined with each other. She led him to his room and she laid down first underneath the covers.
He allowed himself to fall on his bed, next to her on top of the covers. They started off not touching but once Lorelai fell asleep her head went up against Luke's shoulder. After several minutes she threw her arm around him and moved herself closer to him. Within ten minutes of laying down Lorelai was now sleeping with her arm around Luke and her head on his chest.
He couldn't help but smell her, a great strawberry scent with a hint of coffee with it. He usually hates coffee, but he didn't mind this smell. Luke wanted to move once she fell asleep but her even breathing gave Luke this safe feeling and he instantly fell asleep with his hand protectively on her lower back.
"Luke, wake up" Lorelai sang. She laid next to him, his arm wrapped around her waist. She woke up several minutes ago but wanted to lay there with him. She glanced up at him. Luke looked so peaceful, and young but the prickly hair some who call a beard (shadow) made him look mature and older. Lorelai leaned closer to him resting her head on his chest again.
His even, heavy breathing caused her head to go up and down, but she didn't mind. After several short moments of Lorelai watching him sleep he slowly opened his eyes and stared right into hers. Once Luke realized what happened he jumped up forcing her to roll off of him.
"Uh I'm sorry, you hungry? I'll be back" He stuttered leaving the room quickly. A smell of bacon filled the house, he quickly walked into the kitchen bumping into his father. "Sorry, hey a girl spent the night." Will's gaze shot up quickly.
"What do you mean? Were you guys safe? I don't want to find out that you-"
"No, we didn't sleep together, I mean we slept next to each other but no sex." Luke interrupted. "She was at the party, boyfriend ditched her, had no way home. It was late and she didn't want to go home alone so she stayed here. It started off her on the bed me on the couch. But she woke up with a bad dream and needed me. I accidentally fell asleep next to her, that's it." Luke quickly rambled, William just blankly stared at Luke until he was done.
"That's fine" he said and turned to finish taking the burnt bacon off of the burner.
"That's it?"
"That's it. She needed a place. You gave her a place. She was afraid. You comforted her. Why would I be mad if you helped someone who needed it?" He asked his back to his son.
"Ok. Thanks for understanding" Luke mumbled then walked away. Luke was always close to his father but sometimes he was a mystery, a puzzle. Someone that doesn't open up sometimes. Sometimes they couldn't tell each other anything, other times they spill their guts like girls usually do.
Luke walked into his room to find Lorelai back into the short black dress she was wearing the night before, and the bed made. "You didn't have to do that" Luke mumbled. She smiled up at him.
"I know, but I wanted to" She sang swinging back and forth like a child. "And I want to thank you" she continued.
"No, really it's-." Luke started but was cut off with a gentle kiss from Lorelai. His body tensed up and froze. She stopped swinging but continued to smile her dazzling smile and shine her bright eyes up at him. "What was that for?" Luke finally blurted out.
"For helping me, don't get too upset it was just a peck. Nothing special hot stuff" She winked jokingly then walked past him.
