April 26th 2000- Lorelais 32nd Birthday-

Lorelai jolts out of her sleep to feel the spot next to her where Luke is supposed to be, and feels nothing. She sits up with a yawn and rubs her eyes tiredly. Suddenly, the door opens with three blue eyes staring at her. Luke with a breakfast tray in his hands, smiles at Lorelai, "Good morning beautiful. Happy Birthday. Thirty-two today? I can't believe it. Just yesterday, you were four years old, and stealing my heart away." Lorelai chuckles, "Oh I remember, babe. Oh my god! Did you make me breakfast in bed?! Well you are the perfect man. No doubt about that."Luke puts the tray over her lap and gives her a quick but sweet kiss. Lorelai smiles at him, then looks over at her two daughters. Rory looks lovingly at her parents with a smile. Rory is now fifteen years old and a freshman in high school, and she is hoping to go to the prestigious Chilton Preparatory School. Luke is very positive that she will get in, and so is Lorelai. Rory has always been very smart. She has a lot of Lorelais spunk and a lot of Luke's stubbornness. Lorelai then looks over at April, who beams up at her from behind Rory. She is now ten years old and the top scholar out of every child in the fifth grade. She is so sweet and the town loves to gush about her all of the time. April hopes to go to Chilton someday, just like Rory.

Rory smiles at her mother, "Happy birthday mom! I have something for you." She turns to Luke, who hands her a small box, then she turns back to Lorelai and hands it to her, "Here you go." Lorelais eyes go wide, "Oooh. I love presents." She opens the box to find an rose gold infinity pendant on a silver chain, with all four of their birthstones incrusted into the pendant. April giggles, "Mom? Why are you so quiet? Don't you like the necklace?" Lorelai puts out her arms to the girls, "Come here angels." Both of the girls go into Lorelais arms as they sit beside her. Lorelai kisses both of their foreheads, "Girls, I love it. So much…" Lorelai pauses with a sob at the back of her throat, "… I'm just so lucky to have the both of you, and your dad. I never thought that at thirty-two, I'd be this happy. I mean, I knew I'd be happy with your dad. Don't get me wrong." April raps her arms tighter around Lorelai and leans her head on Lorelais shoulder without saying word. Rory looks over at Luke and they share a glance, which Rory sees as a cue, "Hey April. Let's give mom and dad time to their selfs. Let's go to Lanes and hang out with her." April pouts, "No. Why do we have to go to Lanes?" Rory groans, "I didn't want to have to do this." Rory picks up April and drags her out of the house kicking and screaming.

After the girls are gone, Lorelai looks up at Luke with a smirk, "Mr. Danes, what are your plans?" Luke grins, "I've got some ideas. Dirty ideas." He walks up closer to her and puts a hand on her waist, and runs it up to her cheek causing Lorelai to get goosebumps. Lorelai gulps, "You are such a tease. You know that?" Luke smiles and then bites his lip, "I've been dying to get my hands on you all morning." Lorelai takes a deep breath and starts unbuttoning Luke's flannel, "That makes two of us." Luke runs his eyes over Lorelais body as he slips off her tight fitting pajama shirt, to find nothing underneath, "Damn you are so beautiful." Lorelai bites her lip and gives him a sexy stare, "Are you gonna kiss me or not babe?" Luke giggles, "I'm gonna kiss you, crazy lady. I'm just taking my time to admire the goods." Lorelai lies down on the bed as she watches Luke take off his jeans, "Admire the goods?" Luke blushes, "Yes. The goods." Lorelai giggles, "Babe, don't be embarrassed. I love it when you admire the goods." Luke smiles as he walks back over to her and starts unbuttoning her jeans, "This is so much easier when you are laying down…", he pauses when he gets her jeans down to her ankles, "… my my my. I see you decided to wear the leopard print lacy thong that I love." Lorelai smirks, "Ah. I see that makes you and Bert very happy." Luke looks down at the bulge in his boxers, "Lorelai. Geez. Did you have to name it?" Lorelai giggles, "Yes. I did. He deserves a name." Luke rolls his eyes as he throws her jeans on the floor, "Woman you are crazy. But I love you anyway." Lorelais voice suddenly turns husky, "Baby, please. Stop teasing me. Make love to me. No more foreplay." Luke's eyes turn a shade of dark blue and lust as his lips meet hers, "As you wish my love."

Hours later-

Luke and Lorelai are laying at the foot of the bed, sprawled out. Pillows are strewn all around the room, and so are the blankets.

Luke wakes up to find Lorelais head on his chest and her naked body against his. He kisses her forehead gently, making her stir slightly, "Hey crazy lady. Wake up. I have a surprise for you." Lorelai opens one eye and looks up at him, "Hmm. What kind of surprise? Is it coffee? Cause I want some desperately." Luke laughs, "Turn around and look over at the closet." Lorelai turns over to look at the closet, to find the most stunning evening gown, and her mouth drops open, "Oh my god. Luke. Sweetheart. Woah." She gets off the mattress and walks up to the dress. The dress is a black, long sleeved matte satin, floor length, vintage bateau neck, two piece lace evening gown. Lorelai looks back at Luke and smiles, "Babe, what's this for?" Luke grins, "Well, I thought that, you, the girls and I, could take a family portrait. Hang it up above the fireplace. Send it to family members, put it up at our wedding." Lorelai is giddy with excitement, "Baby. You are just too perfect aren't you?" Luke looks back at her then at the dress, "I saw this dress, and thought you'd look really sexy and sophisticated. It looks like something you'd wear." Lorelai smiles, "It is something I'd wear. I'm going to go put it on." Luke chuckles, "Go ahead and put it on. I'll go make sure that the girls are getting ready." Lorelai heads into the bathroom, but before she shuts the door, she peeks her head out and blows Luke a kiss, "I love you backwards baseball cap. Always and forever." Luke blows her a kiss back as he walks out, "Always and forever crazy lady."

Luke heads down stairs to Rorys bedroom, to find both of the girls getting ready, "Hey girls. So do you have the engagement ring?" Rory laughs with a snort, "Really dad? You have to ask me that. Do you not remember how good I am about not losing anything?" Luke laughs and says dryly, "Sorry for askin'. My mistake. You are so your mothers clone sometimes." April bounces up and down, "Daddy, why are you asking mom to marry you again and giving her a new ring? Aren't you two already engaged?" Luke smiles at his youngest daughter, "Well Apricot. I felt like your mom needed to be asked properly. I also know that she needs a bigger and better engagement ring, since the ring she is already wearing is a promise ring. So, I figured that this would be a great way to give it to her." April laughs, "That answer is good enough for me."

Luke looks at both of the girls and gives them a smile, "You both look just like your mother at those ages. Striking resemblances." Rory smiles and looks in the mirror. She is wearing a black, A-Line/Princess scoop neck, floor length chiffon and lace evening gown, along with black heels. Her long curly brown hair is placed in tight bun on the top of her head, with a small diamond pin in the middle of the bun. When Rory feels that her outfit is complete, she heads out to the living room. April walks over to look at herself in the mirror. She is wearing a three-tiered chiffon floor length evening gown with a sequined belt, with black ballet flats. Aprils long brown ringlet curls, are styled into a fish tail braid, with small diamond pins styled into the braid. April smiles at herself then looks over at Luke, who has been quietly observing his youngest daughter, "Daddy, you have to go get ready! Your stuff is in the guest room upstairs. Go! Hurry! Mom will be ready soon." Luke laughs, "Alright. I'm going, Apricot. By the way, you and Rory look beautiful." April laughs as she pushes him out the door. Luke walks up stairs to the guest room, where he finds his charcoal black tuxedo sitting on the guest bed. As he gets dressed, the photographer gets the equipment set up and gets the living room ready for the portraits. After dressing, Luke goes into the bathroom to fix his hair and to make sure that he looks picture perfect.

After a once over, Luke heads down the stairs, to find the girls talking a million miles a minute. Luke looks around the room for Lorelai, then back at the girls, "Hey girls, where's your mother? Shouldn't she be down here by now?" Just as the girls are about to respond, Lorelai appears at the top of the stairs, "Looking for me?" Both of the girls squeal in delight, "Mom, you look so beautiful!" Luke turns around to see Lorelai looking like she came off a runway, and he suddenly looses his ability to speak. Lorelais dark curly brown hair is down to her hips in a waterfall braid, her make up looks perfect and professionally done, and as for her dress, it hugs her curves as it cascades down to the floor. Lorelai smiles at Luke, "Babe, you look like a model. Seriously. I love when you are GQ'ed up." She then looks at her two daughters, who are standing proudly in the middle of the living room, "My angels. You two are stunning. I just can't believe that you two will be eleven and sixteen this year." When Luke finally finds his words, he is in awe of his fiancées beauty, "Lorelai Victoria Gilmore. You are the most gorgeous woman that God has ever created. You literally knocked the breath out of me."

After a few minutes, the photographer asks them to stand in front of the fireplace. Rory turns and whispers to April, "Go get moms ring and hand it to dad. It's in our special hiding spot." April runs into Rorys bedroom and grabs the ring box. She runs back to her father and hands him the box quietly. When Lorelai turns around to talk to Rory, Luke gets down on one knee. April looks at Lorelai, "Mom turn around!" Lorelai turns around and gasps, "Oh my god Luke. Baby." Luke smiles as he opens the little blue Tiffanys box, to reveal a beautiful diamond encircled by a double row of bead-set diamonds. Lorelai is in shock, "That's the Tiffany Soleste. I've had my eye on that ring since I was three. How did you know?" Luke smiles, "I picked it out with help from the sales ladies. I knew that this was you from the moment I saw it. I've been saving my money for many years to be able to buy you an official engagement ring." Lorelai feels a tear at the corner of her eye and she whispers, "Luke." Luke takes her hand and places it on his heart, "Lorelai Victoria Gilmore, I know I did this twenty-nine years ago, but we were children then. I couldn't wait then to tell you how I felt, and I can't wait now to tell you again. Lorelai, look at all we have now: We have two beautiful daughters, we both have amazing and successful jobs, great cars, this amazing house, our friends and family, and so many other things. Out of all of that, we have each other. You are my rock, my Ava Gardener, my queen, you are everything that I am. No matter how much coffee you consume, or how many times I catch you trying to give the girls a big cup of that stuff, I'll never stop loving you. Quirks and all. Lorelai Victoria Gilmore, will you marry me?" Lorelai nods, "Yes. Yes. Yes. I will marry you, my lovely coffee god." Luke smiles and slips the ring on her finger as he stands up. Luke takes Lorelai in his arms and kisses her passionately, as the photographer takes pictures. What they didn't know, is that the photographer was taking pictures and video the whole time. Both Rory and April cheer and hug Luke and Lorelai, once the couple pulls away for air.

After the official proposal, the family of four gets in position to take their family portrait. Luke and Lorelai stand next to each other, while Rory stands behind Lorelai, and April stands in front of Lorelai and Luke. After the family portrait, The girls get photos done of just themselves, Luke gets a one of just himself, and so does Lorelai. After the individual photos, the girls get to go to Lanes house to show off their pretty dresses, and hang out with her.

As soon as they're gone, Lorelai turns to Luke, "Hey babe, lets get a photo of just us for our official engagement photo." Luke smiles and turns to the photographer, "Would you get one more shot of us?" The photographer smiles and pulls his camera back out. Luke goes over to their fireplace again, and stands with his body slightly turned to left. Lorelai comes over and leans her body into Luke, as he raps his arms around her middle. She takes his hands in hers, and positions her left hand correctly so the ring can be seen in all of its glory. They both smile for the camera as it flashes brightly few times, before the photographer puts it away.

After the photographer leaves, Luke smirks at Lorelai, "Happy birthday crazy lady. You want some birthday cake?" Lorelai grins, "Oh. Backwards baseball cap. Well, only if you feed it to me." Luke laughs, "I can make that happen. Up stairs. In bed." Lorelai giggles, "Dirty." Luke grins with another smirk, "I learned from the best." Lorelai grabs a couple pieces of cake, and runs up the stairs giggling with Luke behind her, trying to tickle her.
