Love, Confusion, and Bert (Set in Love, Daises, and Troubadours- in Season one)
Luke's POV
I step out into the hot autumn air, and start walking towards Lorelai's house. I left my toolbox there earlier, so I'm going to pick it up. That's not the only reason though. I want to tell Lorelai how I feel about her. I guess Rachel leaving and telling me that she left because of Lorelai really got me stirred up. Rachel's right; I do need to tell her that I love her. I practically flew up the front steps, as my finger hit the doorbell. I wait a few seconds and ring again. This time the door flings open.
"I told you to be at least five minutes late. Oh, Luke. Sorry I didn't know it was you." Lorelai says apparently expecting someone else. She is all dressed up, which means she's going out on a date. 'Nice timing Danes.' I think to myself
"Hey. Were you going out?" I ask wondering with whom.
"Oh, uh… yeah. It's okay, though. Come in." she says stepping aside, and I spot my toolbox on the floor.
"Thanks. I just came to get my toolbox."
"Here it is. I think Bert is gonna miss us." She says and I stare at her strangely.
"Bert?" I question.
"Me and Rory named him Bert. We'd say Goodnight Bert. And then he'd say Goodnight girls." Lorelai says in a high-pitched tone. I roll my eyes as I pickup my toolbox. I think I better tell her now. I set 'Bert' down on the desk, and take a deep breath.
"So, Rachel left last night." I say looking at her for a reaction.
"No, Luke. I'm so sorry. Why?" Lorelai says and touches my arm for comfort. I look down, and touch her arm. As I look back up, she's looking down at our arms touching, as if something was wrong.
"Because… because, she thought I loved someone else." I say not taking my eyes off of her face. 'She is so beautiful.' I thought to myself. It takes her a few seconds to respond.
"R- really? Who?"
"You." I state simply as I watch her head pop up and she looks deep into my eyes. "And she's right." I add.
"What?" Now she's confused.
"I love you, Lorelai, and always have. For the eight years I've known you, I've loved you, and just been too scared to tell you." I confess.
"Luke…" she starts. "I-I love you, too."
"Really?" I ask flabbergasted. Wow, I had no idea.
"Yeah, I guess it's just been right in front of my face this whole time, and I chose to ignore it. I mean Rory told me that you did, but I didn't believe her."
"Well, now you can." I state as I pull her closer and kiss her. It was an amazing kiss. We must not have heard anyone knock, because I hear some guy say something. We both pull apart, and see who I suppose is Lorelai's boyfriend standing in the doorway.
"I guess this means we're over." He states simply.
"I guess so." Lorelai says and looks down at the floor, staring at her shoes. He just walks out.
"Hey, are you okay?" I ask pulling her head up with my finger.
"Yeah, 'cause now I've got you." She says and I think 'This has to be the best day of my life!' She smiles as she pulls me in for another kiss.
