Hope y'all like!

Once at the airport, they checked in bags and went through security. It had been quite some time since Luke had flown on a plane, so the new security measures freaked him out a bit.

"What the hell was that?"

"Aw, don't worry, Luke. That's standard now."

"Standard? Standard my ass!"

Lorelai and Sookie laughed it off, while Jackson simply chuckled.

However, Lorelai was on a mission to get caffeine.

"Lorelai, Jesus, would you slow down?"

"Babe, you know me all too well. You should know that I am obsessive when I need coffee."

"I guess you're right. Look, there's a Starbucks right over there."

Lorelai groaned.

"I like your coffee better!" She whined.

Since marrying Luke, she saw Starbucks and other coffee chains as literal poison.

"I'll make you a cup when we get home to make up for this."

"I'll hold you to that. Love ya, hon."

"I love you, too."

They shared a sweet kiss before walking in and ordering black coffee.

After receiving their drinks, they met up with Sookie and Jackson. Rory was on her computer and typing away. While the trip was a vacation for the rest of her extended family, she was there to start graduate work.

"Rory, do are you ever going to stop?"

"No, I never stop. You know that."

While the others laughed off the comment, Rory didn't pay much attention.

Thirty minutes later, they were boarding their Honolulu-bound flight. At Emily's persistence, they had been bumped up to first class.

Luke was next to Lorelai, and down the aisle and to the left was Sookie and Jackson.

Rory sat towards the middle and lucked out because she had the whole row to herself.

She had the view, though, of her mom and Luke. The past few years had a few bumps to get over, but through it all, they had survived. She'd never seen Lorelai so happy.

It made her think of the staunch reality that was her love life. She'd been on a dry spell of sorts over the last year, but that didn't stop her from hoping for the future.

Meanwhile, Lorelai had snuggled up in Luke's arms.

"Can you believe we are coming up on five years?"

"It's been the best five years of my life."

"Aw! You're so sweet. You are going to make someone very happy some day."

"I sure hope so. Now you get some sleep, Junkie."

"I will, Angel."

After Lorelai's jabber became soft snores, he allowed himself to think of the girl that he yearned for all of those years. While the pining was sometimes desperate, seeing her face over that stupid audio tape made it all worth it. It was crazy to think that five years had gone by so fast. Even though his perfect vision of a wife and kids hadn't worked out as planned, Lorelai, and the life he had with her, was so worth it.

Seven hours into the flight, Sookie and Lorelai sat together to talk about new additions to the Dragonfly. This vacation was a precursor to the new additions that would soon embrace the Dragonfly's property. The main one, however, was changing the street name. Even though all had come to love Sores And Boils Alley, Sookie made the decision to change the street name to "Gilmore Way" after Richard's passing.

That surprise was unbeknownst to Lorelai, however, until Sookie handed her the paperwork that was nearly finalized.

Lorelai, upon seeing it, was in a state of total shock.

"Sook, did Taylor sign off on this?"

"Yep! We were waiting on you!"

"I-I can't tell you how much this means to me." Lorelai said, on the verge of tears.

"Luke and I did this."

That was when the full-blown tears started.

"I have the best husband and best friend, you know that?"

"We know!"

Lorelai then stood up and sat next to Rory

"Rory? Sores and Boils Alley had a name change."

"Really? To what?"

"Gilmore Way. Sookie and Luke did that in honor of grandpa."

Riry let out an audible "aww" before hugging her mom.

"I miss him, too."

After talking with her daughter for a while, Lorelai went back to her seat. Luke soon followed suit.

"Luke, thank you for choosing me and for loving me. And for renaming 'Sores and Boils Alley' to 'Gilmore Way.'"

"I knew how much you missed him. And it wasn't just for him, but for you. You've poured your life into Stars Hollow. You've made it better for everyone else. Why not show that?"

On the verge of both gushing and tears, Lorelai kissed the man she loved. If it wasn't obvious to others, it was definitely obvious to her. Luke was her soulmate.

Thirteen long hours after takeoff in Hartford, the plane finally touched down in Honolulu.

The warm, picturesque Hawaiian beaches were a welcome change to the snowstorms that Connecticut was known for at this time of year.

However, the time change was astronomical. Even though they'd taken off at six in Hartford, it was just barely ten in Honolulu.

A tired group of five opted for a cab to take them to their resort. When they got there, Luke and Lorelai, Sookie and Jackson, and Rory retreated to their respective rooms.

The suite overlooked a picturesque Hawaiian coastline. The beaches, lightly adorned with flowers, highlighted the flora and fauna of Hawaii.

Luke pulled his wife out onto the balcony.

"Gilmore Way. The street with the Inn is going to be named 'Gilmore Way.'" Lorelai said, breathing in the scent of his embrace.

Luke smiled.

"Best husband award?"

"You bet."

They shared a quick peck.

"I'm tired, love."

"Me, too."

Taking the memo, Luke pulled Lorelai even closer than his current embrace, and led his wife into bed.

Later on that evening, they all met up at the nightly luau.

Rory had to miss because of an impending deadline, so it was more of a double date than anything.

All four had ditched the long sleeves and now looked relaxed. It was amazing what a few hours of rest in a new place could do.

"I want a drink that is out of a fruit and has one of those cute umbrellas." Lorelai said, sitting down

"Ooh, me too!" Sookie squealed.

They ordered their drinks and enjoyed the dinner and luau. However, at the end, couples were invited to dance. Lorelai stood up and looked at Luke expectantly.

"I'll never live this down if I don't, huh?"

"Yes!"

Reluctantly, he followed suit.

As they swayed to the music. Lorelai was transported back to the first dance she'd shared with Luke at Liz's wedding.

It was the perfect start what would be an amazing vacation.
