Lorelai Gilmore sat curled up on her couch, wrapped in a massive doona, watching re-runs of The Munster's. She hated being sick. Lorelai had woken up with a massive headache and stumbled downstairs, in hope that drinking some coffee would sooth her head; she was mistaken. Not only was there no coffee to be seen, but also when she tried to go to Luke's, she only made it to the living room.

So Lorelai sat, with a stuffy nose and a croaky cough, with no coffee, no food, and no boyfriend. She hated being sick.

Lorelai reached for the phone next to the couch and dialled a number. "Luke's" Luke answered from the diner. "Luke. Can you come over?" Lorelai said over the phone, her voice croaky as she sniffed. "Lorelai? Are you ok?" He asked, sounding worried. "I'm sick." "I'll be over soon." Luke said, hanging up.

Blowing her nose and throwing the Kleenex on the floor, Lorelai sighed, snuggling up closer to the blanket, her eyes watching the black and white T.V screen in front of her. She couldn't help but think that with all this coffee deprivation, this may actually of been the longest time she had gone without a caffeine fix.

Sniffing, she suddenly heard footsteps up her porch. Then came knocking. "Lorelai?" Luke's voice rang through the living room. Lorelai slowly forced herself up and still wrapped in the doona, She hobbled over to the front door. Opening it, she was faced with Luke, who looked worried, and was carrying a cup of coffee.

"Are you alright?" Luke asked, inspecting her face. Lorelai buried her face in his chest as he led her back to the couch. She sat down and Luke sat down beside her, holding out a cup of coffee. "You brought me coffee." Lorelai smiled. "Yeah, well you sounded pretty bad on the phone. I kinda figured you were sick when for the first time in your life you didn't show up for your morning intake of caffeine." Luke replied. Lorelai sipped her coffee. "I woke up and managed to get downstairs, but then there was no coffee left, so I tried to go to the diner but I got as far as the living room and then I crashed on the couch watching re-runs. I hate being sick." Luke kissed the top of her head as she lay on the couch and rested her head on his chest.

"Don't you have a diner to run?" Lorelai asked, as Luke gently stroked her hair. "It's ok, I left Caesar in charge, and I've got Lane there so I'm all yours." Luke replied. "Do you want some food?"

Lorelai looked at him, "There's nothing in the kitchen except some funky smelling cheese." Luke rolled his eyes and smiled, "Why am I not surprised." "Come-on. I'm getting you up into bed." Luke grabbed Lorelai around the waist as she leant on him and he took her up the stairs.

Luke set Lorelai down on her bed and tucked her in. Luke sat on the edge of her bed as she sniffed. "I'll go get you something to eat." He kissed her on the cheek and exited. Lorelai sighed happily and switched on the mini T.V.

Luke came in about 30 minutes later, carrying a bowl of soup and some coffee. "How did you manage to cook at get coffee in a kitchen which has nothing but green cheese." Luke smiled, "I have my ways."

Luke lay next to Lorelai while she ate her soup, watching the re-run of Oprah she had put on. "These kids are majorly screwed up." He surmised, by watching the 14 year old who was smoking dope and sleeping around. "Nah, they are just very good actors." Lorelai replied, setting her tray on her bedside table. "Jerry Springer has actors, these kids just have trailer trash parents who don't give a crap." Luke replied.

Lorelai smiled and turned over to face him. "Thank you for coming over. I loved the soup." "Its my pleasure." Luke replied, putting his hand on her waist. "I'd better get back to the diner and make sure Caesar hasn't burned the place down." Lorelai nodded. Luke stood up and Lorelai followed him down the staircase, still wrapped in a blanket.

They stopped at the doorway. "I'll come over after work. With food." Luke said, holding her around the waist. "Thank you for feeding me. I may have died of coffee deprivation if you hadn't come. I was starting to hallucinate…" Lorelai replied. "We wouldn't want that." Luke said, kissing her softly.

As Luke started his truck and drove out of the driveway, Lorelai looked on, smiling to herself. "I'm going to marry that man." She said softly.
