IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN...
COFFEE & A QUESTION
Here is a little Recap from "It should have been Lorelai"
LORELAI: I'll get it! Hello?
CHRISTOPHER: Hey Lor, it's Chris.
LORELAI: Hey you, how's it going?
CHRISTOPHER: Good, good. I'm on a little business trip here and I thought I'd call and check in on Rory.
LORELAI: Oh, she went to some biker party a few days ago and never came back.
CHRISTOPHER: Again?
LORELAI: Yeah, we gotta start disciplining that girl.
CHRISTOPHER: Hey, who's got the time?
LORELAI: Actually, she's right here. I'll pass you to her. So where'd this business trip take you?
CHRISTOPHER: Your neck of the woods, actually. I'm in the Litchfield area.
LORELAI: Really? How long?
CHRISTOPHER: I don't know, a couple of days, or for as long as it takes for them to succumb to my infinite charms.
LORELAI: Well, if you're still here on Friday, you should come on down and see Rory in a debate at Chilton.
CHRISTOPHER: Really?
LORELAI: Yeah. It starts at 3:30 and it's first come, first serve. They're expecting like 20,000 people so I'd get there early.
CHRISTOPHER: Wow, Chilton up close, huh?
LORELAI: Yeah, it's your chance to see the famous Paris in action. There might even be casualties.
CHRISTOPHER: Okay, tell Rory I'll be there.
LORELAI: Really?
CHRISTOPHER: Why not?
LORELAI: Aw, she'll be excited. Here, tell her yourself.
CHRISTOPHER: Pass me on.
[Lorelai stands at the doorway to Rory's bedroom
AND MY STORY BEGINS...
Rory talks to her dad for about fifteen minutes. When She hangs up she goes into the living room to talk to her mom.
"So, dad is coming Friday huh?"
"Yup, that is what he said."
"He said he is bringing Sherri with him." Rory said.
"Oh, really? That is um...thats great."
"Wow, you might want to work on your reaction a little before they come."
"What? I am happy for your dad."
"Yea right. Why don't you ask Luke to come to the debate too, then you won't feel like the third wheel."
"Hmmm, like ask Luke to pretend to be my boyfriend?"
"No, I mean like as a friend."
"I think I like your first idea better."
"That wasn't my idea that was you putting words in my mouth." Rory yells to Lorelai as she walks back to her room to work on her debate with Paris.
"Hey hun I am going to Luke's to get some coffee do you guys want anything?" Lorelai asks standing in Rory's doorway.
"Nah We are all set, thanks mom."
Lorelai leaves and walks down the street to Luke's dinner. The bells over the dinner ring Luke is in the kitchen cleaning up.
"We're closed!"
Lorelai ignores the comment and sits at her usual spot at the counter.
"Luke! Please I need coffee."
Luke comes out and pours Lorelai some coffee. Not saying anything.
"Hey Luke, how much do you like me?"
"Your only getting one cup, you will never get to sleep otherwise."
"No I don't want coffee...well I do but what I was talking about was I need a favor. A big favor."
Luke looks at her with a straight face and says "I bought your basket last week for fifty-two dollars! What else could you possibly want?
"Well, Rory is in a debate at Chilton on Friday and her dad, Christopher, is coming. He is bringing his new girlfriend, Sherri. So, I was wondering since you are my best friend...you could pretend to be my boyfriend while he is here." She says the last part very fast even for Lorelai.
"What?" Luke asks Making a face.
"I want you to pretend to be my boyfriend while they are here."
"No."
"Come on Luke please."
"No Lorelai. Can't you get some other sap to do this."
"No I would feel stupid asking someone else."
"But you have no problem asking me?"
"Well Luke you are my best friend." She said in a flirty tone.
Luke just rolls his eyes and starts to wipe down the counter and the tables. He does this for about 10 minutes.
"Fine." He said as he walked back to the kitchen.
Lorelai smiles and yells "Thank you!" She takes one more sip of her coffee and leaves.
As soon as she leaves Luke leaves the kitchen and locks the door. He shuts the lights off and goes upstairs.
"Wow pretending to be Lorelai's Boyfriend. I hope I can handle this. I probably shouldn't have said yes but how can I say no to her, especially when she looks at me with those amazing eyes." Luke thinks to himself.
LORELAI'S HOUSE
"I'm home."
"Hey mom."
"Paris leave?"
"Yes but I had to promise to work on my WPM."
"So, I asked Luke." She says as she sits at the table near Rory.
"Oh boy."
"He said yes."
"Well of course he did."
"What do you mean of course?"
"Well we all know Luke can't say no to you."
"And what does that mean?"
"Mom...come on." Rory says as she gets up and goes to her room.
Lorelai gets up and goes to get ready for bed.
"Rory is crazy. Right? I mean Luke doesn't like me. He can't even tolerate me for more then the duration of a meal. But he is always there for me...but thats just because we are friends. Right?" Lorelai thinks to herself.
