SORRY
I know most of you will be cursing me for taking so long and making an incomplete chapter but I figured I should post this now seeing as how it might take eben longer SORRY.
I don't have a computer anymore so I'm gonna start writing at school (that will put a damper on my M rated stories, though I'm still making one right now) I also just recently got a job so that'll make everything go slower.
Also to all the parents out there I bow before you. Oh my God is it hard to make a birthday party for a little kid. Last weekend was my friend's daughter 3 birthday and since my friend is 6 months pregnant right now I was the one running around doing everything and I got to notice how hard it really is.
Heres the next chapter on Unexpected Result, sorry if its too short.
I might just post the rest of my stories, what i have so far, even though they arent as long as i like them to be (tell me what your opinion is)
Enjoy! and SORRY again
.o0 Friday Around Noon 0o.
"Damn it, Luke! I said with ruffles!" Lorelai shrieked when she pulled out a bag of ships out of the Doose's brown bag.
"No, you didn't" Luke said calmly, he was used to her cravings and her mood swings.
"Yes I did, the ones with ruffles hold more dip" Lorelai stated tossing the bag at him, and she saw him wince but it wasn't because the bag had hit him. "You bought the dip didn't you?" she narrowed her eyes at him.
"They were out of bean dip" Luke defended himself.
"Good, because I wanted the sour cream one!"
"No, you said you wanted beans, and I remember because you called me a bean head while telling me what to get" Luke reminded her and Lorelai was quiet for a second before he heard some sniffling.
"You're not a bean head" she said sobbing. Oh boy Luke mentally rolled his eyes before walking over to her, he would never know why sometimes her mood swings were full throttle and sometimes nothing would get to her. "You… you're…" her sobs wouldn't let her talk.
"Shh, it's ok" Luke hugged her and rubbed her back soothingly. "It's ok" he kissed her temple. "Why don't we go down to Doose's together and you can pick out what you want?"
"I don't… wanna… walk… all the way there… and… all the way back" Lorelai said sobbing.
"Of course not, we need to save energies for tomorrows Dance" Luke agreed with her. "Let's take your funky new beetle" they had, since recently, bought a new Beetle, it was lime green and convertible because Lorelai had picked it out that way; Luke didn't mind as long as she was getting around in something safer than her Jeep.
"Can you drive?" Lorelai asked with puppy eyes.
"Yes, I'll drive"
"Can we get some ice cream also?" she asked quietly.
"Of course we can" they were walking to the door, Luke still had an arm around her.
"Ok, let's go" she resolved once they were outside; Luke mentally patted his back for keeping his cool during, yet another, of her weird mood swings.
"Could you snap at Taylor once we get there?" Luke asked quietly near her ear and Lorelai smiled. "He placed a couple of flyers on my windows this morning"
"I'll make him cry" Lorelai assured with a big smile and Luke helped her in the car before running to the driver's side.
"Lorelai, why is the car seat in the backseat?" Luke frowned.
"Because it looks pretty there, and it's getting used to its new home" Lorelai offered with a smile while looking back to the backseat.
"So you're just gonna leave it there until the baby is born?" Luke asked and Lorelai nodded.
"Inside is my hospital bag, all ready to go"
"Seriously?"
"Yep, everything is all set just in case I go into labor at any moment"
"Wow" Luke was shocked that she was so prepared.
"I was bored yesterday" Lorelai shrugged.
.o0 Minutes Later At Doose's 0o.
"…Are you denying a pregnant woman what she wants?" Lorelai sounded appalled; she was having trouble not laughing, just like Luke was.
"No, no, it's just…." Taylor sounded scared, everybody was looking at him.
"Just what! Huh, huh, huh?" Lorelai was all over in his face.
"I… I... I..." Taylor was cornered. Luke was smirking in the distance; everybody was enjoying seeing Taylor sweat.
"You what?" Lorelai snapped.
"We're out of pistachio ice cream, I'm sorry" Taylor stuttered.
"How can you be out? This is the market!"
"But it's the end of November" Taylor stated.
"So…?"
"Normally people don't eat ice cream in November…"
"You're saying I'm not normal?"
"No, no, no, it's just that you're pregnant" Taylor rephrased.
"Oh, so, my baby is the one that's not normal then?" Lorelai glared at him.
"Is that true?" Luke finally composed himself and walked over to where they were and asked Taylor.
"No! This is being blown out of proportion" Taylor took a protective step back.
"So, now you're saying Lorelai's lying?" Luke twisted Taylor's words; he was having way too much fun with this.
"What, no! I just… I… I'd like to reimburse you" Taylor suddenly said. "Pick any other flavor, it's on the house" Luke turned to look at Lorelai and she nodded smiling.
"Thanks Taylor" Luke said and walked after Lorelai, she had walked off towards the freezers. The people there kept looking at Taylor.
.o0 The Freezers 0o.
"How was that?" Lorelai asked with a big smile once Luke standing next to her.
"Better than I thought, thanks" he smiled at her.
"It was fun" she shrugged. "Can you grab two chocolate pints please?" Luke nodded and opened the freezer.
"You didn't want pistachio, did you?" Luke frowned and Lorelai shook her head with a devilish smile which made Luke chuckle.
.o0 Around Seven 0o.
"Mom…?" Rory walked into the house, Jess was over at the car getting their stuff, Luke was over at the Diner, and Lorelai had fallen asleep upstairs in their room. "Hello…?" Rory looked around and everything seemed pretty much dead. "Mom, I saw the new car, its cute" silence.
"Where do I put these?" Jess asked lifting their duffle bags.
"In my room. I'll go look for my Mom" Rory said walking upstairs, Jess didn't respond. "Hey, Mom, we're home and I thought you'd like…" Rory stopped when she saw Lorelai sleeping peacefully with a small smile gracing her face, one hand on her stomach; her shirt rising a little and Rory could still see it.
.o0 Couple Weeks Before 0o.
"Isn't Luke gonna flip?" Rory wondered while opening a package.
"Yes he is" Lorelai said with a smile while sitting down on the couch wearing her bikini top.
"Then why do you insist on doing this?"
"Because it'll look cool" Lorelai stated, her hands rubbing the sides of her stomach. "Besides, I would never do the real one because for one, they use needles, and because when this one comes out it'll look all raisin like"
"Still…" Rory wasn't convinced yet.
"It's ok, I researched it Rory, and henna tattoos are harmless"
"I know the tattoos are, I doubt Luke will be though"
"Relax, if he gets mad I'll take full responsibility for it" Lorelai waved it off.
"Of course you will it was your idea after all" Rory said in a little moment when she tore her eyes away from the instructions.
"Rory, honey, relax, I don't want a crooked tattoo"
"Ok, ok" Rory took deep breaths. "Did you take the picture?" Rory asked after a couple seconds and Lorelai nodded. "Did you zoom into it?" again Lorelai nodded. "Did you print it?" Lorelai thought about it before nodding. "Where is it?"
"Neatly folded inside my purse" Lorelai declared proudly.
"Ok" Rory stood up and went to get Lorelai's purse. "Perfect!" Rory exclaimed when she saw how the mysterious picture turned out out.
"I know"
"How did you take it? I would've thought Luke would've been against it" Rory frowned walking back and sitting down on the coffee table directly in front of Lorelai.
"I have my ways" Lorelai smiled.
"Was he asleep?" Rory cocked an eyebrow towards Lorelai's direction.
"No" Lorelai said non-convincingly and Rory laughed.
"Ok, I'm gonna copy this to the special paper, with the special ink now"
"Go ahead… and make it a good copy" Lorelai warned. Rory shook her head but kept her focus on the job at hand.
"You do know this'll take a lot of ink, right?"
"Yep"
"You still want to make it so big?"
"Yep"
"You're not gonna change your mind?"
"Nope"
"Not even when it takes forever to get done?"
"Nope"
"Ok then, here we go" Rory lifted the paper where she had copied the tattoo. "Don't move or I'll miss the bellybutton"
"The middle square goes on the bellybutton" Lorelai reminded her.
"I know, now, don't move" Rory said and then focused so she would get it right. "There" she gently pressed down so it would set. "Hey" Rory giggled when the baby pushed back out.
"Baby, don't move your sister or she won't get the tattoo right. We don't want an ugly tattoo, now do we?" Lorelai talked to the bump.
"Look" Rory said and peeled off the paper. "Now if you don't like how it looks then I can change it now, otherwise let's keep going because what's next is what takes the longest"
"I like it" Lorelai said with a big smile looking at the outline of her future tattoo.
"Ok then, let's get going" Rory said while reaching for the henna pen.
Over an hour later Rory was still putting the finishing touches to Lorelai's new tattoo; they were almost out of ink, since she was supposed to put a lot of it so it would stick and the outer part had to dry, which would take close to another half hour because it was such a big tattoo.
"There, now it needs to dry and then we peel it and voila" Rory said stretching a little. "Don't touch it, I'll go get the blow drier so it'll dry faster" Rory got up, placed all the used henna tattoo stuff on the table. "Don't touch it!" Rory called from the upstairs bathroom right as Lorelai's finger was getting closer to the henna ink.
"Gah!" Lorelai got startled. "You know me too well, kid"
"Yes I do" Rory said walking back down, blow-dryer in hand.
"Where did Jess find this henna kit?" Lorelai wondered.
"I don't know" Rory shrugged. "I just asked if he knew where they sold them, he asked me why, I told him why, and next thing I know he gives me the kit"
"Aw, look at Jess sucking up" Lorelai teased.
"Mom…" Rory glared at her. "I can still mess the tattoo up" Rory threatened.
"No, no, no! Sorry" Lorelai shot Rory her brightest smile.
"I'll let it slide… just this once" Rory added with a smirk.
Lorelai had insisted on letting the ink dry for over forty minutes, just to make sure. Right now Rory was almost done with the peeling process. Once all peeled she ran a damped clothe over Lorelai's stomach to make sure she had gotten everything.
"And we're done" Rory said tossing the rag somewhere near the table. "I must say, I'm good at this" Rory said with a firm nod.
"Help Mommy up so she can see how 'good' you actually are" Lorelai said reaching her arms out.
"You're being mean just because I can't ruin the tattoo anymore, aren't you?" Rory narrowed her eyes but helped Lorelai up.
"Nope, I'm not being mean, I'm just teasing you" Lorelai said before going upstairs to her room where she had a full body mirror. "Ah!" Lorelai shirked.
"What?" Rory made a mad dash upstairs. "What's wrong?" Rory ran into Lorelai's room.
"It's so cool! It looks just like Luke's only way bigger!" Lorelai was all giddy. "Thanks Babe"
"No problem" Rory smiled. "I'm glad you like it because it took forever to make"
"It looks so real" Lorelai ran her fingers over it. "It's so cool!" Lorelai still had the smile there, it'll probably be a permanent feature, until next mood swing.
"And it'll last about two-three weeks" Rory informed.
"It'll be stretched out before it fades anyways" Lorelai waved it off.
"Lorelai?" Luke's voice was heard.
"Go stall him" Lorelai pushed Rory towards the door of the room.
"But…"
"I'll put a shirt over it; I don't want Luke to see it right now" Lorelai kept pushing Rory out.
"Is that Rory's car outside? Or do you have a guy up there" Luke teased, he had gone straight for the kitchen without giving the living room a glance.
"Go, go, go" Lorelai gave Rory one last push.
"Fine" Rory said and hurried downstairs. "Luke?" she called out loud hoping he hadn't seen the living room.
"So it is your car and not some guy's" Luke teased when Rory walked into the kitchen.
"No, just plain old me" Rory said and nodded weirdly with her hands shoved in her back pockets.
"Are you ok?" Luke frowned, she was acting very weird.
"Me? Yes.., great… just visiting" she looked all over the kitchen avoiding Luke.
"Aha" Luke narrowed his eyes at her. "Lorelai?" he called.
"Just a minute!" Lorelai's voice came from upstairs.
"What's going on?" he asked Rory.
"Nothing" Rory said and added an overdramatic head movement.
"Right" he narrowed his eyes more. "What did you guys do?"
"Nothing" Rory said quickly and Luke leaned on her a bit and that's when Lorelai came downstairs. "Bye!" and Rory ran out of the kitchen, said a quick 'bye' to her Mom and left the house.
"Hi, Hon" Lorelai said brightly and gave him a small kiss.
"What were you two doing?"
"We were upstairs looking at some… stuff"
"Stuff?"
"Yep, some stuff for you. Well it's for me but I bet you'll like it also"
"Something for you, that I'll like, and that Rory helped with? I'm intrigued"
"Sit down…" Lorelai pulled out a kitchen chair. "And close your eyes" she was giddy again. Luke sat but kept his eyes locked with hers. "Luke…" she whined. "Either you play along or I'll have to cover your eyes with something" she warned.
"Fine" he sighed and closed his eyes. Once Lorelai made sure he wasn't looking she lifted her shirt over her belly.
"Open them" she had a big smile. When Luke opened his eyes they were focused on her face but they slowly traveled down and once they noticed Lorelai's new decoration his face was a combination of shock and anger.
"Wha…" he ran a finger over the ink to see if it was a marker, when there was no ink residue on his finger he snapped. "What did you do?" he shot up from the chair. "How could you get a tattoo without telling me! You marked your body for life! And you're pregnant, did you even think of that! Of how it could affect the baby, our baby! Did you even think of the baby? Where did you get it done? Was it even sanitary? God knows how those needles were! God I can't believe you did this!" Luke was angrily pacing the kitchen ranting.
"Luke…"
"What? You thought it'd be cool? Or was it a craving you got?" Luke asked sarcastically and Lorelai was a little taken aback.
"I knew you were gonna be mad, I never thought you would be an ass!" Lorelai said near tears before leaving the kitchen and going up to their room and slamming the door.
"How could she be mad at me?" Luke wondered out loud still mad, in his head he was still ranting and in the kitchen he was pacing. After a couple of minutes he took his cap off and tossed it to the table so he could run his finger through his hair.
Upstairs, after slamming the door, Lorelai sat on the edge of the bed crying. 'He didn't even let me explain, he just ranted and yelled. What a hypocrite, did he forget he has the same tattoo on his arm, yes it is way smaller but still' she kept crying.
After a while Luke got tired of being in the kitchen, he felt like a lion at the zoo; going round and round on the same spot. Luke also cursed a little remembering he had taken all the beer out of the house. He grabbed his cap an walked out of the kitchen towards the main door, when he passed the living room something caught his eye and he walked over to look at it better.
"Crap" Luke mumbled looking at the mess that was on the coffee table, he deflated a little, his anger quickly leaving his body. He started cleaning up to give Lorelai a couple moments alone, and giving himself time to get out all the anger he had had; that time also being used in forming a good apology.
"Go away" Lorelai said when she heard the door open; she was now lying on her side, her back to the door. The door closed but she heard him moving inside the room. "I don't feel like being yelled at right now, so please leave me alone. Write everything on a piece of paper so you won't forget anything" she whispered. Luke moved around the room and then she saw a note fall right in front of her face, she grabbed it and crumbled it before tossing it behind her back. Lorelai heard Luke de-crumble the paper and then he held it in front of her face so she had to read it… 'SORRY'. She turned to lay on her back and Luke sat on the edge of the bed sideways facing her.
"Why didn't you tell me it was a henna tattoo before I made an ass of myself?" he wondered with the faintest smile.
"Because you didn't give me a chance to talk" she said in a monotone voice.
"Well, that's a first" Luke teased, Lorelai rolled her eyes. "Can I see it again?" he tugged a little on the hem of her t-shirt.
"No" Lorelai said quietly.
"Come on, please? I didn't get a good view before but… I think I recognized the design" he kept tugging at her shirt.
"Luke…" she said a little annoyed and pushed his tugging hand away.
"Please?" Lorelai's face was still facing away from him. "Don't make me pout" he threatened playfully, Lorelai snorted shaking her head a little so she wouldn't smile. "Come on, you know you wanna" he said in a playful voice, tugging hand back to business.
"Promise you won't get mad?" she finally turned to look at him and he noticed the moisture on her cheeks, he whipped the remaining tears with his thumb before answering.
"I'm sorry I yelled at you" he whispered looking at her eyes and Lorelai smiled a little. "I was an ass, just like you pointed out" he added with a little smiled before giving her a small kiss. "I promise I won't get mad again"
"Ok" Lorelai said smiling; she reached down and pulled her shirt up. Luke's eyes had stayed with hers until the shirt was all the way up. He gave her another kiss before making a move to look at the tattoo again.
"Yep, I was right" Luke said nodding. "I did recognize the design the first time" he teased and Lorelai gently pushed him. "It's bigger though… way bigger" the tattoo took up most of the room on her baby bump. The center square was right on her bellybutton and from there the tattoo expanded.
"Yeah, I blew it up on the computer before printing it out" Lorelai admitted.
"You took a picture of my tattoo?" Luke frowned and turned to look at her.
"Yep" she smiled. "I took it while you were sleeping. I also took some 'different' ones, but those are just for my pleasure" she teased and Luke groaned.
"Erase them"
"No way" she giggled. "So… do you like it?"
"As a temporary tattoo, I love it. But… don't go get a real"
"Don't worry" she assured.
"How did you do this?" his index finger was tracing all the designs.
"Rory did it" Lorelai smiled at the feeling.
"Oh, so that's why she was being weird"
"Yep, she said you were gonna get mad once you saw it… and I guess she was right"
"Wait! She didn't… see the other pictures, did she?" Luke suddenly looked scared.
"No…" Lorelai giggled. "I printed the tattoo one and just handed it to her. The other pictures are safe"
"Where?"
"If I tell you then they won't be safe, now will they?" she smirked and Luke gave her his patented I'm-not-amused glare.
.o0 Back to Friday 0o.
Rory smiled at the memory and the view before walking back down after closing Lorelai's door so they wouldn't wake her up. Lorelai had been right, the tattoo had stretched out before it started to fade, right now it could still be seen, it was a little on the grayish side but it was still noticeable.
After leaving Lorelai a note Rory and Jess went over to the Diner to get some dinner since they would be going to bed early so they could wake up early and still win that trophy for Lorelai; hopefully now that Kirk was grounded the marathon wouldn't last the whole 24hours.
You've been LoVeLuKe-ized
again sorry, I have it all planed out. I know when and how this story is gonna end, and if I do it how I want it then it'll be 2-3 more big chapters (10000 words is what I like doing) if not then it'll be a bunch more chapters only smaller.
Tell me what you thought of this one, and if you feel like yelling at me for taking so long then go ahead.
