Attention: I don't own Gilmore Girls! I wish I did!

It's All God Given Talent

4 Years Later- June 18th 2010

"Welcome to the Victoria's Secret Summer Fashion Show. We have top models from all over the globe. Our most recognized Angel, is Lorelai Victoria. She is a four year veteran on our runways, and a kick ass Angel. Out of our Angels, she is the oldest; at forty-two, Lorelai looks like she is actually in her twenties. She is a mentor for every new Angel. Lorelai, please lead the girls out here."

As the first few bars of 'OMG' by Usher ft. will. play, Lorelai comes out from behind the glass leading to the runway, with a trail of younger models behind her.

Sitting in the front row, Luke is grinning with a proud look on his face.

Lorelais body is adorned by a new black lacy strapless bra, tiny little black panties and large sparkly angel wings.

As she gets to the end of the runway, she winks to Luke and mouths, "I love you.", and flips her newly dyed black curls as she heads back up the runway.

Luke can't help but almost drool as he watches his gorgeous wife make her way back up to the front of the runway.

Her long soft and silky legs moving down the runway in perfect time to the music, her beautiful luscious hair swinging back and forth against her perfect ass that shakes to the beat of the music.

The suductive smile on her face, made him want her even more.

Four years ago, a few weeks before she gave birth to their youngest son, Nate, Lorelai had told him that she was going to be a model.

Luke thought it was just the demerol and that she wasn't serious.

But once she gave birth to their son, the modeling agency called and confirmed that Lorelai was serious.

Luke couldn't blame them for wanting her to be a model.

He always thought she'd be a natural. And his thoughts were right.

At first, he didn't want to share his wife with the world and the runway, but once he saw how much she loved it… and that she'd bring home everything she wore, he gave in.

Lorelai is the most respected and highest paid model out there.

She has been able to raise the last three children at home, run her inn with Sookie, and be a model.

Luke thought she was wonder woman.

An Hour Later-

Lorelai comes from the backstage area, in a strapless sundress, over to Luke, "Hey baby. I think today was a success."

Luke pulls her close to him and runs a finger over the tiny freckles on her shoulder, "Bert and I enjoyed it very much."

Lorelai blushes, "You've embraced Bert now I see."

Luke smiles, "I had to eventually. You wouldn't stop talking about it"

They walk out of the stadium, arm in arm to Lorelais jeep.

New York, New York-

20 year-old Aprilanne Marie Elizabeth Danes walks out of her new apartment, to head to her Mercedes Benz to go to the studio in Brooklyn to work on her album with Katy Perry.

As she drives along the road, she pulls out her iPhone and calls her mom over her Bluetooth.

When the line picks up, a giddy Lorelai answers and doesn't give April a chance to answer, "It lives!"

April giggles, "Hi mommy."

Lorelai laughs, "Did you forget about the woman who gave you life, and missed the first seven years of your life?"

April rolls her eyes with a chuckle, "Yada yada ma. I've been in the studio non stop! Like I've been living on coffee and donuts. And I've been wishing I got them from the diner."

Lorelai smiles proudly, "Kid, I'll get your father to bring you some Luke's stuff this weekend."

April grins wide, "You guys are coming to visit me?!"

Lorelai nods happily, "We may bring your siblings too, if you're nice."

April pulls into her parking space and notices her mother get quiet, except for the sounds of tongues colliding on the other end, "Mom, what the hell?! I'm guessing dad is home from work?! Cause I hear some gross sounds."

Lorelai hits Luke playfully then says into the phone, "Your dad was feeding me ice cream. Of course it was gonna sound gross."

April shakes her head, "Those are lies. All liessssss."

As Luke sits down, he yells into the phone, "Hey! She had her hands all over me! I couldn't get her off!"

April rolls her eyes and laughs, "Why the hell you always lying daddy? I know you both were making out with each other."

Suddenly, a familiar voice fills the air when Rory comes in the house and she realizes who Lorelai and Luke are talking to, "APRILLLLLLLL!"

April laughs again and shouts back, "RORYYYYYYYYYY!"

Lorelai giggles, "How long has it been since you two have seen each other?!"

April frowns, "It's been a year mom."

Rory nods with a frown too, "Yes! It's been a year! I'm so coming to see you this weekend! I promise!"

A few seconds later, a new pair of blue eyes appear at the table.

Eight- year- old Mel smiles at her mother, "Mom, is that Apricot?!"

April grins, "Is that my fave beauty queen?"

Mel giggles, "Yassss. It's me. Who else would be as awesome as me?!"

Rory shakes her head and sticks her tongue out at her little sister, "Clearly I'm a lot more awesome than you."

Lorelai and Luke both roll their eyes in sync, making Luke laugh.

April smiles wide, "Okay kids, I have to go in now. I have to finish these last two songs by Friday afternoon, or I'm out of money. And I'm homeless."

Mel giggles, "I miss you April!"

April smiles as she looks out the window of her car, "Back at cha kid. I love you."

Mel smiles back, "I love you too!"

After April hangs up, Mel takes Rory outside to talk with her about the cute boy she likes.

Inside the house-

Lorelai looks from across the table over at her husband, who is going over the deliveries for the diner.

Luke notices her eyeing him and blushes, "Stop it."

Lorelai shakes her head and tries to act innocent as she runs a hand over the milky skin of her chest, "I don't know what you are talking about."

Luke puts down the paper and gives her a look, "I know what you're doing Lorelai."

Lorelai bites her finger and bats her eye lashes, "What am I doing, sweetie?"

Luke gulps and furrows his brow, "You are teasing me. Baiting me. That's not fair. You look so gorgeous today. You're turning me on."

Lorelai chuckles as she stands, "Oh come on babe. You're not being fair. By the way, I'm not wearing any underwear."

She runs out of the room and up to their bedroom, making Luke follow her and pull off his shoes in the process, "I'm not wearing any either!"

When Luke hits the doorway of their bedroom, Lorelai is standing in the middle of the room, with a sweet look of love and longing on her face, and her icy blue eyes turning into sapphire.

As he steps closer to her, the only thing he can hear, is both of their soft but heavy breathing.

Lorelai walks closer to him until their bodies touch, causing Lorelai to shake from the strong sexual tension that exuded from her husbands body.

Luke suddenly feels Lorelais arms rap around his waist as she presses her forehead to his.

The only word able to escape his lips is her sweet name, "Lorelai."

Lorelai looks into his eyes and runs her hands along his spine, causing him to tense up, "Luke. I love you."

Luke smiles as he plants a soft kiss onto her lips.

Lorelai softly tugs at his bottom lip with her teeth causing Luke to moan, "Oh Lorelai. I love you too."

Luke deepens the kiss as he runs his hands over her hips.

As his tongue enters her mouth, Lorelai starts unbuttoning his flannel, "Mmmm. Luke."

Suddenly, their bedroom door flies open, with a very confused Junior behind it.

Luke and Lorelai both break apart with a scream, "What the hell?!"

Junior screams too as he puts his backwards baseball cap over his eyes, "Oh my god!"

Luke buttons up his flannel as Lorelai glares at their oldest son, "Out. Now."

Junior runs out of the room, and Luke shakes his head, "I swear, we never have time for each other anymore."

Lorelai kisses his cheek, "I'm sorry baby."

Luke looks at his watch and rubs his eyes, "I have to go to the diner."

Lorelai smiles, "Hey, you should take Nate with you. He can see daddy on the job, andddddd he can annoy the shit out of Taylor."

Luke leans in and kisses his wife, "You are a genius. I'm so lucky to have you, and to call you my wife."

Luke's Diner-

Luke opens the diner door, with his three year old son in his arms, and smiles at Ceaser, "Hey Ceaser, is Taylor around?"

Ceaser chuckles, "He is in the restroom. He should be out in a minute."

Luke nods, "Where is his seat?"

Ceaser points to the table, that happens to be Lorelais favorite table in the whole diner, "That's his seat."

Nate looks up at his daddy, "Mommy is gonna be mwad."

Luke sits Nate down on his feet and points to the table, "Remember what I taught you?"

Nate nods, and Luke smirks with an amused look on his face, "Go get him kid."

Ceaser comes up behind Nate, and hands him a can of whipped cream, making Nate grin with excitement.

The little angel faced boy, runs to the table and shakes the can, then says before spraying it all over the cushion, "This is for you mama."

Luke tries to hold back a laugh as Nate runs back over to him, "Daddy, this is so much fun."

Suddenly, Taylor makes his way over to his seat and sits down.

He sniffs the air and stands up, "Oh my god. Who put whipped cream on my seat?!"

Luke picks up Nate and snickers, "Nobody Taylor."

Taylor groans, "Lucas, I know when you are lying to me. And now you're training your three year old son, to lie as well."

Nate shakes his head and frowns, "You were sitting in my mommies seat. She always sits at that table. I don't think she'd be happy if she were to have found out about this."

Taylor glares at Luke, "I can't believe you let your son get away with this. I am ashamed."

Luke gives a glare back to Taylor as he motions to the table, "That is my wife's favorite table. I know you know it Taylor. It is very sentimental to her and I."

Taylor raises his eye brow as Luke continues to rant, "That was the table she sat at and claimed, when we first opened the diner together with our first born daughter, seventeen years ago. Every day, for the past seventeen years, my wife has sat there with five generations of Danes children. She has ordered pancakes, bossed me around, fed our children, gave me really cute kissy faces, and many other things at this table."

Taylor goes to speak but Luke keeps ranting as tears fill his eyes, "She even carved LVD + LWD Forever, in the wood on this table the day we bought the damn thing."

Taylor clears his throat, "This is a public place. I don't care if Lorelai loves this table or not. Unless she reserved it, it's not her table."

Suddenly, the woman of the conversation walks in and she notices the tension, "What's going on in here? Why is Luke crying?"

Nate looks up at his mother and shakes his head, "Mommy, Taylor stole your table. And daddy was trying to get it back."

Lorelai grabs Luke's hand from across the counter and gives it a gentle squeeze before turning to Taylor, "Excuse me. But, did my son say what I think he said? That's my table, mine. I don't care if you don't like that, but this has been my table for seventeen years. I'm not giving it up for nothing."

Taylor snorts, "Maybe you should stop trying to make everything about you, Lorelai. Nothing revolves around you, twenty-four seven."

Lorelai feels an aching pain in her chest and heart as she remembers the first time they had brought seven year old April to the diner.

It was the day after they had got her back from Anna and the police, after seven years of waiting.

They had sat right at that table, as the whole town flocked to it, excited for the official return of Aprilanne.

Lorelai snaps back to reality, and snaps at Taylor, "Screw off Taylor! I don't want to listen to you tell me, that I, The owners wife, who also is the co owner , that I can't let this be my damn table."

Taylor shakes his head, "I'm writing you up Luke."

Luke's eyes grow wide, "Why in the hell are you doing that for?!"

Taylor smirks slyly, "You are being rude to me and I won't stand for it. Just because she is your wife, doesn't mean she deserves special treatment."

Lorelai feels the rage build up in her body, and finds her voice, "DAMNIT TAYLOR! STOP BEING SUCH AN ASS! THIS IS MY DAMN TABLE! DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?! THIS IS MY DINER AS MUCH AS LUKES! GET THE HELL OVER IT!"

Taylor shrinks down a bit as he gets his coat and leaves without a word.

Lorelai crosses her arms and wipes her eyes, "That's what I thought."

After a few quiet moments, Mel and Junior walk into the diner, talking about what they learned in school that day.

Mel notices her parents are as quiet as a mouse and she raises her dark brown eyebrow, "Mom, dad? Was Taylor just here? Need me to kick his ass?!"

Luke's mouth drops wide open, "Melody Victoria Rose Danes! Do not even use that language young lady."

Lorelai holds back a chuckle and Luke looks over at her, "Don't encourage her. She's almost nine! She looks like you, but she doesn't need to act like you."

Lorelai crosses her arms over her chest and glares at him, "What's that supposed to mean? What if I said the same damn thing about Junior?!"

Junior looks at his dad and shakes his head, "Dad, did you really have to go there, just to prove a point to mom?"

Luke shakes his head and raises his voice, "I'll be damned if she comes home to me at sixteen and says that she's pregnant."

Lorelai throws her hands up in the air in anger, "I'm not the one who got me pregnant. YOU DID!"

Junior raises his voice, "Dad stop! We all know damn well that you helped bring Rory into the world too. So stop blaming it on mom."

Luke scoffs, "Not you too goddamnit. No cursing for you too. I mean it, Lucas."

Junior crosses his arms, "Don't treat mom like she doesn't have a say. She's just as important as you are."

Lorelai looks at her son with pride and sadness, "Kid, it's okay. You don't…"

Junior stops her midway through her sentence, "It's not! Stop pretending everything is okay! Look, y'all are going to therapy! That's final!"

Luke scoffs, "Hell no. Danes' don't go to therapy. When your grandparents had problems, they worked them out on their own. They didn't go to a therapist."

Lorelai crosses her arms again, "Sweetie, I appreciate the idea. But it's not a good idea."

Suddenly Rory, Marty and Mia walk into the diner, "You two are going. I made the damn appointment."

Mia looks at Lorelai and smiles her special Mia smile, "Plwease mamaw. Plwease papaw."

Luke looks at Lorelai and whispers, "She's got the Mia face. We cannot deny her."

Lorelai grits her teeth and a fake smile appears, "Fine. We'll go. For Mia."

Rory looks at her little sister and nods, "We thank you for listening to us. This is important. Not just for you, but for us."

Luke squints his eyes, "What are you taking about?"

Mel looks at Rory and nods, "I'll take it from here…" She pauses and clears her throat, "… Daddy, we have to have a stable home life with parents who are still together. Otherwise, we will become lowlifes or addicts. Do you want that?"

Luke's eyes grow wide at his daughters seriousness, "Of course not."

Rory and Mel both nod and say at the same time, "Then you are going to therapy."

The next day- Therapy-

Rory pulls up the therapists office and turns to look at her parents, who are in the backseat looking out each of their windows, "Alright, we're here. Please exit the vehicle. I have to go pick up my daughter and my sister. And I don't want to be late, otherwise I'll never live it down."

Lorelai sits there for a minute before getting out and planting a kiss on her eldest daughters head, "Bye kid. I love you. Give the girls love for me."

After Lorelai walks into the building, Luke turns to look at Rory and sighs, "Pumpkin, are you sure this will help us get past all our problems?"

Rory smiles and pats her fathers shoulder, "Daddy, this is all you can do. Forty-two years. That's a long damn time. You guys have been through a lot. Five kids, evil grandmothers, blasts from the past, you and mom both almost dying. It's time to go against what grandma Rebecca and grandpa Will, would want you to do."

Luke chokes back tears, "How well do you remember your grandpa?"

Rory smiles as she feels a tear roll down her cheek, "I remember him just like it was yesterday. I miss him dad, so does mom. I know you do too. I wish April would have gotten to know him like I did. And I wish the same thing for Mel, Junior and Nate."

Luke finally gets the courage to get out of the car and smiles back at Rory as he shuts the car door, "Thanks kid. I hope this works. I love you very much."

Rory smiles back, "You're welcome daddy. You better hurry, mom will get mad if you leave her alone. I love you more than anything."

Luke waves back at Rory as he heads inside.

Inside-

Luke walks into the lobby to find his wife siting in a leather chair, waiting for him, "Hey baby. How long is the wait?"

Lorelai nods and says curtly, "Not much longer."

Luke gives her a look, "What's your problem?"

Lorelai groans, "You know. Don't play dumb."

Luke shakes his head and rubs his temple, "Honey, why are you acting like this?"

Lorelai glares at him, "This is dumb. People do not need to know about our problems."

Luke chuckles, "You never know, this could be good for us."

Lorelais demeanor changes and she laughs, "Really? Just yesterday, you bitched about how Rebecca and Will, didn't do therapy. That Danes' don't do therapy."

Luke smirks, "Well, my ideas changed since yesterday."

Lorelai grins, "Okay. If you say so babe."

Luke pats her knee lovingly, right as the therapist walks over to them and extends her hand, "Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Danes. I'm Sandy Irving, your therapist. Nice to meet you."

Both Luke and Lorelai, shake her hand, "Nice to meet you too."

Sandy waves towards her office, "Shall we?"

Luke and Lorelai get up and follow Sandy to her office.

Sandys office-

Once Luke and Lorelai sit down, Sandy slips on her glasses and smiles, "Tell me about you both and how your relationship started."

Luke smiles as he pulls out the aging forty-two year old Polaroid and smiles, "We actually met forty-two years ago, at the birth of my wife. She was just a few minutes old, when my mom stoped and saw her as we were walking down the hallway."

Lorelai smiles wide, "After that day, we didn't see each other again until the first day of elementary school, August 1972. I was in kindergarten, he was in the second grade. I had just turned four that April, and Luke was five going on six in October. I'll never forget getting pissed at him. Can I curse?"

Sandy nods, "Yes. You may. Please continue."

Lorelai giggles, "I got pissed at him for running into me in the hallway. He was pissed off because one of the teachers wouldn't let him read his book, and made him go straight to class."

Luke smiles, "It was truly the best day of my life, having Lorelai yell at me. She was such a little spit fire. Her wild brown curls, that beautiful smile that took my breath away even when she was across the room. I remember askin her, 'What cha readin?' and after that, history forever changed for the better."

Sandy nods, and Lorelai speaks again, "Hon, I think you should take this part."

Luke grins wide as he pulls out the worn box and opens it to find the promise ring that he had given Lorelai, seven months after they officially met, and what she wore until Luke could buy her an adult engagement ring. It had been sized so many times up until 2000.

Luke speaks again but keeps an eye on the ring, "It was seven months after we officially met, and I knew I loved her right then and there, the day we met. I knew that it was strange because we were so young, but my heart told me that this was it. That she was it. But I asked her to marry me, when we got older, and to move to Stars Hollow too. She accepted. I couldn't have been a happier boy…," He pauses and pulls the ring out of the box and holds it up to let Sandy see, "… She wore this for twenty-eight years. My dad had helped me pick this ring out, once I had told him that I wanted to marry her someday. He was so excited for me, so we went out right away and purchased the ring. My dad loved Lorelai so much. He took so much pride in her. And my oldest daughter. Even though I couldn't know about Rory, my dad could. He had pictures of her all over his office, and he would pretend like she was a town members kid. Not his granddaughter. I always tried to brush it off. No matter how I tried, I couldn't help but wonder if that baby was mine."

Sandy finally speaks, "Lorelai, he wasn't supposed to know about your daughter?"

Lorelai rubs her forehead, "I knew this was coming eventually. So, Luke and I had our first time together, when I was fifteen, almost sixteen, and he was seventeen going on eighteen. I didn't give birth to Rory until October 8th 1984. I was definitely sixteen then. Before she was born, my mother hated Luke with a passion. I guess she hated that he wasn't a Hartford man. But what's crazy, is that, Luke went to Harvard for a track scholarship, and came out of there a lawyer and at the top of his class. But I guess she thought that he wasn't good enough either way."

Lorelai pauses to collect the thoughts and emotions that are running through her head, then takes a deep breath before starting again, "Luke couldn't be there for Rorys birth or the first four years of her life. I remember the first word she said was… d-daddy…," Lorelais eyes fill with tears as she remembers Rorys very first word, and the determination from her first born.

Luke watches his wife break down and he can't help but feel his eyes grow wet as he listens to her speak again, "She kept on asking about him, but if I didn't want to lose my baby, I had to keep quiet. I kept dodging questions. I felt so guilty. And angry. My daughter wanted her father, and I couldn't let him even know she existed. I felt so helpless. I drank every night. Sookie and Mia had to watch her for me. I was pretty much all alone."

Lorelai wipes her eyes and grimaces, "The only reason Luke even found out about his daughter, was the day our middle daughter Aprilanne, was kiddnapped."

Luke shakes his head, "Fuck no. This is not going to be one of those times where we bring that shit up again, is it?!"

Sandy frowns, "A sour subject between you two I assume?"

Lorelai turns around to look at Luke, "YOU SHOULD HAVE NEVER BROUGHT ME THOSE DAMN PAPERS AND THEN THE WHOLE THING WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED!"

Luke's face turns red, "I THOUGHT I WAS DOING THE RIGHT THING DAMNIT!"

Lorelai crosses her arms, "Fuck no. Trying to give another woman, our child? That's not even doing the right thing. You pretty much betrayed me. You hurt me. I trusted your ass!"

Luke stands up and points a finger at her, "ME? BETRAYED YOU? HOW ABOUT HOW YOU BETRAYED ME BY KISSING CHRISTOPHER?! DID YOU NEVER THINK I'D FIND THE HELL OUT?!"

Lorelai turns as white as a sheet, "The fuck. I never kissed him!"

Luke slams his hands on the table in front of him, "Goddamnit. Do not lie to me! I FUCKING SAW IT! THE WHOLE DAMN TOWN SAW IT! WHO FUCKING KNOWS. RORY PROBABLY ISNT MINE!"

Lorelai stands up, "WHY IN THE HELL WOULD YOU EVEN QUESTION IF SHES YOURS?!"

Luke groans and spats back, "BECAUSE IM PRETTY SURE SHES NOT MINE!"

Lorelai feels the tears burning at the corners of her eyes as she spats back loudly, "YOU FUCKING SLEPT WITH RACHEL!"

Luke nods and points a finger into his chest, "FUCK YEAH I DID!"

Lorelai shakes her head as she throws the rings on her finger into his face, "YOU LIAR! YOU WERE TESTING MY TRUST! YOU KNOW THAT I NEVER KISSED THAT ASSHOLE! YOU FUCKING MONSTER! BUT I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU WOULD LIE TO ME FOR THIS LONG! WE'RE DONE! GO TO HELL!"

Lorelai grabs her coat and stumbles out into the lobby in a blind panic.

Barely able to hold back the sobs building in the back of her throat, Lorelai runs out into the parking lot, breaks down and falls to her knees and cries.

Luke holds Lorelais rings in his hand and grips them tight, "Sandy, we must be going. I don't think we'll be back for a while."

Sandy nods with an apologetic frown, "This is my fault. I am so sorry."

Luke shakes his head, "No, we needed to get that out. Thank you."

He gets up and rushes out of the building, but is too late when he watches a truck hit Lorelai as she was standing up.

He hears her strangled scream, but then nothing afterwards.

Lorelai is knocked down and sprawled out on the pavement, her wild black curls spread out behind her.

Luke feels his heart stop and the world start moving in slow motion, as he runs as fast as he can to her side.

An ambulance pulls up along with police cars, and a few people block Luke's path.

Luke tries to get past them, but they all push him back and tell him to not get anywhere near the body.

Luke rubs his forehead in frustration and starts to yell, "THAT'S MY WIFE! PLEASE LET ME GET TO HER!"

Sandy walks over, her make up smudged, "Luke, I am so sorry."

Luke grinds his teeth together, "She could be dead. She looks dead."

The police chief puts up the bright yellow tape and looks over at Luke and sighs as he motions for him to come over, "Luke. I'd never thought we'd meet again."

Luke nods, "Me either. How is she?"

The chief shakes his head, "I don't know. But it doesn't look good."

The head nurse comes over to the chief and whispers, "It's time for the body bag."

The chiefs eyes fall as he whispers back, "Should Luke get a good look at her, beforehand?"

The nurse nods, "Only if he wants."

Chief turns back to Luke with tears in his eyes, letting him know that she is gone.

Luke feels the anger build up in his body, as he asks the question he already knows the answer to,"She's gone isn't she?"

Chief nods as he wipes his eyes, "I'm so sorry Luke. They really tried to save her. They really did."

Luke clenches his teeth together as he holds the tears back, "Can I see her?"

Chief nods again, "Yes. You may see her."

Luke turns away from the chief, lifts up the tape and walks under it.

The nurse hovering over Lorelais covered body, notices Luke walking closer and sighs, "Are you ready?"

Luke shakes his head as he gets on his knees by Lorelais body, "No. But yes."

The nurse pushes the sheet down to Lorelais waist and Luke's eyes fill with a billion tears as he covers his mouth, "Oh my god."

Lorelais lifeless face is peaceful and her beautiful blue eyes are wide open and staring up at Luke.

Luke feels his heart break into a million pieces as he shakes his head, "No. No. NO! GODDAMNIT! YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO DIE!"

He looks deep into her lifeless eyes, "I should have followed you out of there! IM A DAMN FOOL!"

Luke puts his hands on her cheeks as he sobs, "Lorelai. Please. Come back. I'm sorry. Please. I made a mistake. I shouldn't have. You are everything to me."

Luke's voice starts to break, "A- -always and f - - f - - forever."

Suddenly, Luke falls apart completely, "What am I gonna tell Melly? She's going to fall apart."

Luke leans against the tree behind him as he sobs, "Lorelai. Please. Come back to me."

Weeks later- The Funeral-

Luke arrives at the graveyard in Hartford.

He gets out of the truck and carries his three year old son to the casket of his mother.

Rory walks over with Marty, Mia, April, Melody, Junior and Nate.

All three of the girls notice their usually strong father, break down for the first time in years in front of their mothers casket, making them cry as well.

Rory feels the most guilt for trying to force them to go to therapy.

As the casket is being lowered into the ground, Luke pleads with the guy from the funeral home to let him go down with it.

Rory and April have to practically pull him away as he tries to jump into the hole with the casket.

As Marty takes Luke by the arm and pulls him away from the gravesite, Luke passes out from the stress.

XXXTHE END OF LUKES DREAMXXX

Luke's eyes open and a sob escapes his lips.

His eyes grow wide as he notices where he is and who he is sitting beside.

Lorelai is staring at him with wide eyes and a gaped mouth.

Luke looks at down at her left hand, and notices the rings are there and not still clinched into his hand.

Sandy is the first to speak, "Luke, you were asleep for a long time. You seemed to be in distress. Lorelai tried to wake you several times."

Lorelai grabs his hand, "Baby, did you have a nightmare?"

Luke nods with a stream of tears running down his face, "You died. We were in the middle of this session, and we got into a fight. A bad one. You threw your rings at me and told me to go to hell, and…," Luke pauses when the memories of the dream run through his head and bites his knuckle to hold back the sobs.

Lorelai shakes her head, "Honey, it's okay. You don't have to talk about it."

Luke nods and feels his voice break, "No. I want to."

Sandy nods, "Luke, tell Lorelai how you feel. What you feel is important."

Luke turns to Lorelai and takes her hands in his, "Lorelai Victoria Danes, I love you so much. We have been through so much in the past forty-two years. I need you to understand that, no matter what, I'll keep loving you."

Lorelai lowers her voice and squeezes his hand, "Luke. What's wrong? You can tell me anything."

Luke looks down and lowers his voice too, "It's just… I'm afraid your mother is coming back."

Lorelai shakes her head, "No. she's in prison. She is going to be there for a long time."

Luke gets frustrated, "No. Lorelai. I can feel it. In my dream, she made me say that I slept with Rachel. She somehow manipulated me. She really got in my head this time."

Lorelai stands up and paces the floor, with silent tears rolling down her cheeks, "This is impossible. Truly impossible."

Sandy looks at Luke, "Will you be ready this time? Will you do everything and anything to protect Lorelai, your kids, your granddaughter and future son in law?"

Luke clinches his teeth together, "On my life. I swear to protect them."

Lorelai stops pacing, her blue eyes full of fear, "Oh shit. What about Anna?"

Luke's eyes grow wide as he looks at Lorelai, who is standing still and barely breathing, "Lorelai. I don't know about Anna. As a guess, she could be free too."

Lorelai starts hyperventilating, "My babies. We have to get them out of Stars Hollow. Right now. As fast as we can. I don't care about anything else. I don't care about the house, the jeep, the trucks, the girls cars, the inn or the diner. I care about my girls, my sons, my dog, and my husband. That's it. And I intend for them to be safe. Even if that means we have to leave our home for a while."

Luke gets up and takes her softly by the shoulders, "We need to go to the police. We can't risk our lives Lorelai. You know that."

Lorelai grimaces, "Luke, it isn't safe at home. You know it. The police can't help."

Luke shakes her by the shoulders a little bit and his voice gets bit louder, "Damn it Lorelai. I'd rather die in the house that we grew up in and built from the ground up, together. You, me and the kids. Not in a fucking safe house!"

Lorelai sobs loudly, "So, you want us to die in that house and not be safe? Oh, real smart. You are pathetic!"

Luke shakes his head and barks back at her, "Real mature. Running away from your problems?! Is that what we teach our children?! You're the one who's pathetic."

Lorelais voice lowers as she wipes her eyes, "Says the one who wants to die in our house."

Luke says nothing back but lowers himself down on the couch.

Lorelai looks at him, her eyes full of pain, "We are leaving tonight. You can stay in that house and die alone, or you can come with me? Is that clear?!"

Luke shakes his head, "No. We are going to the police. Is that clear?!"

Sandy clears her throat again, "Luke is right Lorelai. It's safer to go through the police."

Lorelai sits back down and crosses her arms, "Fine. Since apparently, you are the only one who makes the decisions in this family."

Luke turns around to her, "Don't start with me. We both are supposed to make decisions. I am making the right ones, because I'm not as paranoid as you."

Lorelai goes to speak and Sandy cuts her off, changing the topic, "Okay. Well, Lorelai, you had something to say earlier before news broke. Go ahead. Tell Luke how you feel."

Lorelai turns to Luke again, his eyes washing away the anger in hers, "Baby. I love you. I'm sorry that I'm a pain, and I tend to piss you off more than usual, but I love you more than I can explain."

Sandy smiles, "Ah. Calm. So, I've been wondering, have you all thought about having another child?"

Luke laughs as does Lorelai, and they hit the other on the knee at the same time.

Luke is the first to speak, "God no. We haven't."

Lorelai nods, "I'm getting too old anyway."

Sandy nods, "You two could always adopt or get a surrogate."

Lorelai sighs, "That's something I wasn't ready to talk about."

Luke sighs too, "We don't have to now. How about we end it and go home."

Lorelai stands up and grabs her purse, "Thanks Sandy."

Sandy smiles and stands too, "When would you like me to make your next appointment?"

Luke shakes his head, "We aren't coming back."

Sandy frowns and sighs, "Okay. If that's what you wish. Good luck, and I hope you get to have another baby soon."

Luke and Lorelai run hand and hand out of the building, to Luke's truck, and Luke races home.

Crap Shack-

Luke and Lorelai walk into the kitchen still holding hands.

Lorelai looks at Luke for a minute before jumping into his arms and kissing him passionately.

Luke is shocked, but holds her body close to him as his tongue enters her mouth.

Lorelai whimpers into Luke's mouth as she unbuttons his flannel, "Luke. Now."

Luke nods as he sits her on the counter, and helps her unbutton the worn, old, but soft fabric on his body.

As both of their fingers hit the very last button, Lorelai looks up into his eyes, the same as she does when they make love, "Luke. Please. I need and want you so bad"

For the two of them, they have barely made love in months, they both have been so busy. But that night was going to change that.

Luke can feel the heat radiating from between her legs, when his baby blue eyes looked into her eyes, "Oh Lorelai. You have no idea how bad I want and need you."

Lorelais voice grows low and husky just for him, "Show me baby."

Luke pulls off her shirt quickly as he kisses her neck, "Shouldn't we call the police?"

Lorelai cups his chin in her hand and looks him in the eyes, "That doesn't matter right now. I don't care."

Luke leans in closer to her and puts his lips on hers and kisses her hungrily, but then pulls away slowly, "Lorelai, we can't do this now. Not when our life is at stake."

Lorelai pushes his lips back on to hers, "I don't give a shit about that right now."

Luke pushes her down on the counter so she is laying down flat, "Hold still."

Lorelai watches Luke unbutton her skinny jeans and throw them into the floor, "Luke, where are the kids?"

Luke is very focused on getting her thong off when he chuckles, "At Sookies. They are safe. Don't worry sweetheart."

Lorelai closes her eyes as Luke runs his hands down her stomach, "Oh, Luke."

Luke takes a deep breath as he leans down to press a kiss to her thigh, "Hold still baby girl."

Lorelai watches Luke take off his jeans and boxers, and notices his length when he's fully undressed, making her moan and say in a raspy voice, "Fuck. Me. Now."

Luke licks his lips as he grabs her soft hips in his hands as he gets ready to fill her, "You have no idea how long I've waited for this moment."

Lorelai closes her eyes, before shooting them open again when Luke's length fills her, making her scream in pleasure, "AH FUCK!"

Luke can't help but smirk as his wife whimpers, "Oh god. Lorelai, you're so wet."

Lorelai gulps as he moves slowly, almost teasing her to the core, making her scream again.

Luke pushes her further back on to the counter and gets on top of it, not breaking his rhythm.

He pushes himself down on top of her body and wraps an arm around her neck as he looks into her eyes, and his voice turns seductive and gravelly, "You want me to go faster?"

Lorelai nods and can barely get out a word as Luke sucks on the sweet spot on her neck, knowing the bruises would be there by morning, "Please."

Luke pulls away from her neck as he starts moving faster, and he watches her gorgeous face.

Lorelais hands rap around his neck and her fingernails dig into his shoulders as Luke moves even faster, "OH MY GOD! YOUR DICK FEELS AMAZING INSIDE OF ME! LUKEEEE!"

Luke feels himself and Lorelai reaching their climax, and his hips buckle, "Holy fuck! Oh god! Lorelai! Mmmmm."

Lorelai feels herself feeling shocks going through her body as she comes, "Luke. Baby. I'm coming too."

Luke takes his hands and places them on hers as her hips buckle too, making Luke shake, "Lorelai!"

Luke and Lorelai ride out the ecstasy of their shared climax, together.

As one.

As Luke pulls out of Lorelai, she looks into his eyes again with tired but sexy smile, and pants quietly, "Don't let go of me. Hold me in your arms. Right here. I want to keep this moment alive."

Luke smiles and pulls her back into his chest as he kisses her damp hair, and tries to regain his breath back, "God. That was amazing."

Lorelai giggles as she plays with a stray curl that is laying on his forehead, "Have you been holding out on me?"

Luke chuckles with an eye roll, "Lorelai. I never hold out. I go all out during sex."

Lorelai gives him a look that screams, liar!, "Don't lie. Especially since we haven't had sex in months."

Luke sighs in defeat, "Fine. I was holding out. Are you happy?"

Lorelai laughs and pushes him gently, "Aha! I got you there bucko."

20 minutes later-

Luke watches Lorelais eyes start to shut, "Lorelai, are you sleepy?"

Lorelai mumbles as her eyes slowly shut again, "Mmmmhmmm."

Luke chuckles while running a hand through her wild curls, "You wanna go to the bed or are you okay here?"

Lorelai buries her head in his neck as she mumbles again, "Mmmmmhmmmm."

Suddenly Lorelais phone rings from across the room in her pants pocket, making her jump out of Luke's arms, and off of the counter.

She walks to where the ringing is and picks up her phone, and presses answer as she puts it to her ear, "Hello? Oh hey Sookie. What's wrong?"

Luke watches his wife's face turn from happy, to concerned, then to terrified.

Lorelai puts a hand over her mouth as tears start falling down her cheeks, "Oh my god. Did you call the police?!"

Luke gets off of the counter and pads over to Lorelai and watches her mouth, "Melody", to him.

His face turns to shock and worry as Lorelai tries to get Sookie to tell her what happened, "Sookie. Hon, please slow down. Tell me everything. Please. My baby is missing. Yes Sook. I know she's almost nine. But she's still a baby to me."

Lorelai puts her hand over the mouth piece and turns to Luke, "Mel wanted to take Nate to the park and play. Sookie had turned around for two seconds to feed Nate, when Junior came over to her, asking where Mel was. They searched high and low."

Luke looks angry and growls with low voice, "I had told her to keep them in the house at all costs."

Lorelai put the phone on speaker and Sookies voice is soft and broken, and she is in tears as she speaks, "I- I'm so so sorry Luke. I tried, but she kept insisting. She gave me the Mel face. I had to or she'd pout like Lorelai."

Luke turns away and paces around the room but then a tiny voice from Lorelai stops Luke in his tracks, "Emily. She took Mel."

Luke gulps, as he feels that his premonition was coming true.

Emily was free, and Anna could be as well.

Luke felt as if they were a packaged deal.

Luke pulls out his phone and dials Rory, "Rory! You need to get Mia and Marty, and make a run for it! Don't come home. Okay? Please. Emily took Mel."

When Luke hangs up with Rory, he calls April and tells her to run, and to call Rory and make a plan to meet her wherever.

Lorelais heart is pounding as she dials 911, "Hello, I'd like to report a kidnapping. An eight year old girl, brunette, extremely curly hair, with blue eyes. Her name is Melody Victoria Rose Danes. I'm her mother, Lorelai Victoria Danes."

Luke is on the phone with the police chief practically in a blind panic as he pulls on his pants,"Hey Frank. Yeah. Melody has been kidnapped. We need everyone to be on a lookout for Emily Louise Gilmore and Anna Nardini. Yes. They both escaped from prison. I am very positive that they took my daughter."

Lorelai feels her body go numb and falls to her knees.

Luke pulls on his flannel and shuts his cell phone, before turning around to look at his very strong wife who is falling apart, "Lorelai?"

Lorelai looks up at him, her makeup smudged and eyes full of pain, "Mom took her, because she reminds her of me. From her hair, eyes, and sarcastic jokes, she is my mini me."

Lorelais body starts to shake as sobs escape her lips, "I feel like I'm missing a piece of me. My beautiful baby girl. I feel like I did the day she was born. She was so helpless in her incubator. Chris told me that if I didn't go with him, that he'd kill her. Except this time, my mother has her and there is probably no way out for her. I don't want her to die."

Luke shuffles over, sits next to her and pulls her into his arms, "Lorelai, she won't die. I promise you that."

Lorelai looks up into his eyes, "You can't promise me that she'll be fine this time. There is no guarantee that she'll be alive. We kept getting lucky in the past. But, I don't think we'll get lucky this time."

Luke shakes his head and tries to stay calm, "I think she'll be okay."

Lorelai rips her body out of his arms and jumps up with anger showing in her eyes, "MY DAUGHTER WONT BE FINE AT ALL! MY MOTHER DIDN'T WANT ME TO HAVE HAPPINESS AND TO LIVE, SO SHES TAKING IT OUT ON MEL!"

Luke can't convince himself that Lorelai is right, so he walks out of the room with his head down.

Lorelais leans her body against the couch and cries hard.

Upstairs-

Luke quietly shuts the door to their bedroom and goes to their photo album drawer.

He notices a picture hanging out of an album and pulls it out.

It's a photo of Melody and Lorelai when their youngest daughter was five.

They had just went to showing of the Lion King on Broadway, and Lorelai had picked up Mel like Rafiki did to Simba in the movie.

Both of them, radiant and happy, gazing into the camera, but actually, they both were looking at Luke.

Lorelai and Melly both looked like each other. It was evident.

Their eyes, nose, lips, even their smile were the same.

Their laugh matched the others perfectly.

Luke could have never imagined the most perfect daughter, but Mel was it.

Lorelai loved all of their children equally, but Mel had become her everything.

Luke felt guilty for trying to convince Lorelai to believe that everything was going to be fine, when in his heart, he finally started to understand that it wasn't going to be fine.

Not this time.

He sits down on his side of the bed, and finally… the tears fall.

Downstairs-

Lorelai dresses herself before slipping on her shoes and grabbing her car keys and rushing out the front door.

Outside-

Lorelai turns the keys in the ignition and the jeep starts to run.

She wipes her eyes as she looks at the house, "I'm going to do this on my own and he can't stop me."

Lorelai looks back to the driveway in front of her as she pulls away.

30 Minutes Later-

Lorelai pulls up in front of the Gilmore Mansion and puts the car in park.

She reaches into her purse and takes a deep breath as she dials her husbands number.

Luke picks up in a panic, "Lorelai, where the hell are you?!"

Lorelai leans her head against the head rest and sighs, "Babe. I'm at Emily's house. I'm still in the jeep. Please come. I need you. I thought I could do this alone. But I can't."

Luke steps on the gas pedal, "I'm already on my way. Listen honey, I'm sorry I tried to tell you that this was all gonna be okay this time. I know that it won't be okay."

Lorelai smiles a slight but tearful smile and nods, "Thanks baby. I love you."

Luke blinks back tears as he grips the steering wheel, "I love you too."

When they both hang up, Lorelai let's out a deep breath before saying a silent prayer to herself.
