Okay, so those of you who have me on Author Alert know that I write mostly Bones stories but I've recently come to be obsessed with Gilmore Girls since Bones went on break. A break which will end in two days but that doesn't matter. I saw the last episode and thought about how their life would turn out and if they would ever get those kids that they thought would be 'nice' and tied the knot. So this is my version of what happens. Please enjoy!
Chapter One: Wedding Bliss
Twelve years. Twelve years and five months. Twelve years, five months, and two days that I've known Luke Danes. Eight of those years were spent as his friend. As we grew closer, our relationship grew more intimate, until, finally, he made a move. Then, we started dating. My mother and ex broke us up. We spent a little time apart. Then we got back together. Then my kid dropped out of college, and when he started to make plans on how to keep her there, as if he were her dad, I knew he was the one for me. So I asked him to marry me. He said yes without a second thought, and we were engaged.
Our engagement wasn't exactly a long one, or a fairly easy one, at that. Then one night, I asked him to just elope with me, and he didn't, so I went back to my ex. That was the biggest mistake of my life, as I later found out, and it ended sooner than I thought it would, to my relief.
And then, not long after that, my kid graduated from Yale (making me feel prehistoric) and he threw her a surprise going away party, making sure that everything was perfect, even though it rained that day. And he did it because he liked seeing me happy. Then we were back together again, because we both realized that we couldn't stand living without each other.
Then one year ago, exactly 6 months after we got back together, he proposed. The right way, with Rory there, and his daughter, April, at our shared house, with the most beautiful ring I'd ever seen, looking at me with eyes full of patience, love, and complete adoration.
Of course, I said yes, and now here we lay, in bed, on our Honeymoon in Oahu, with my head laying on his shoulder and his hand rubbing smooth circles into my back, happier than we've ever been before.
I look up at him and all I see is the love and adoration radiating off of him, and all I feel is the soft thudding of his heart as it beats in sync with mine. All I smell is his scent, which is undeniably Luke. All I hear is his deep, even breathing which is slowly lulling me to sleep. All I taste is the sweet lingering taste of his lips, when they were on mine a couple of minutes ago.
All these emotions and feelings that I feel are what I can honestly describe as bliss. Bliss because I'm with the man I love.
True. Wedding. Bliss.
So, how do you guys like it? I think this may be exactly what Lorelai feels when she thinks of Luke now, and though this chapter will be one of a kind for this type of story, I felt it appropriate to start off with how a first person narrative to tell you what the character feels. Anyways, please REVIEW if you want more!
