Oh Baby! Chapter One
Lorelai was sitting in her favorite spot at the counter in Luke's diner, drinking her cup of coffee. Luke's was mostly empty today, which was OK to her because she got her husband all to herself. She sipped her coffee slowly, waiting for Luke to come downstairs.
" Lorelai! You're still here? That cup of coffee has taken you an hour to drink! I love you and all, but GET OUT!" Lorelai turned her head towards the stairs leading up to the office that was Luke's apartment before they got married, to see him coming towards her.
" Sorry, Charlie. Someone's a little touchy this morning. Wake up on the wrong side of the bed? Oh wait; you weren't IN bed this morning mister. I missed you. Where'd you go?" Lorelai asked.
" I came to open early. Caesar couldn't come in and Lane's doing some church thing with her mom," Luke replied.
" Oh, ok. I thought you were cheating on me with some blonde hooker," Lorelai said, "I could go blonde if you want…"
" You did not think that, Lorelai. And if you go blonde, gross."
" Love you too."
" Ha Ha Ha. Now get out," Luke said, leaning down to kiss Lorelai softly on the lips. She kissed him back, deepening the kiss until he pulled away.
" Bye," Lorelai said, standing up and walking out the door.
"Mom!" Rory's voice called out.
"Hey kid. What's up?" Lorelai responded, pulling Rory in for a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
"Oh, nothing really. I just wanted to show you this!" Rory said, putting her left hand in Lorelai's face.
"Omigod! Logan proposed? When?" Lorelai asked, eyes wide open, admiring the giant princess-cut diamond on her daughter's hand. Rory nodded.
"Last night over a candlelit dinner. It was amazing."
"Aw Ror, I'm so excited for you!"
" Thanks, mom. See you at home?"
"I'll be home late. I think Luke and I are going to go out for dinner and a movie tonight. Totally first date, but it'll be nice to get out of the house and away from work for a change." Lorelai said.
"Yeah, that sounds like fun. I have to go tell Lane! Bye!" And she was off, running down the street towards the Kim's antique shop. Lorelai didn't have time to tell her she wasn't there. She would figure it out. She was a smart kid. Lorelai smiled to herself and kept on walking. She had to go get her car and get to work before Michel took over. That wouldn't be pretty.
