CHAPTER FOUR
Jason woke at his usual time, happy that he had nothing to do until meeting Richard for lunch. By then the snow would be plowed and he could get home in plenty of time to change and talk business. . He didn't want to leave. He wanted nothing more than to spend the day with her. In her bed, in her arms.........he felt a hand stroke his leg. She climbed on top of him taking total control this time. She lowered her body on his, starting the process. Teasing, bringing him to the brink and then letting him catch his breath, only to start again. This was the Lorelai he had seen in his office that day. The wild cat, who needed to be in control, who would do anything to take it. When he could stand it not longer he flipped her on her back and plunged deeply into her. Taking her more intensely this time, making sure she was enjoying it............and this time it was sweaty and more physical and they were both panting heavily when it was over. She swung her leg over his, snuggling as they let their heartbeats come back to normal. Then he pulled her out of bed and into the shower. He proceeded to wash her hair, wash every inch of her body, saving the best for last........and she returned his actions. The water was hot, their soapy bodies sensual, and the bathroom steamy. This time their lovemaking was gentle, looking into each other's eyes, slow and steady movements, almost too intense.
They stepped out of the shower, laughing and drying each other. He dressed and went down stairs to give her time to dry her hair and pull on her clothes.
She came down the stairs smiling, making him feel really good. She looked beautiful as usual but there was a sense of contentment there. He knew it was more than the snow.
"I'm starving......need coffee, need food"
"Yeah, well good luck with that one. The only thing in your frig is cold pizza and some strange thing in a carton. How do you survive?"
Lorelai laughed, "Hey, I can't be good in every room. You pick it..."
Jason grabbed their coats, "Choice made. Where do you go for breakfast around here?'
"Luke's, only Luke's......best coffee in town. He's kept Rory and me alive for all these years."
"He did a very good job." Commenting as he opened the door.
They trudged the short distance through the snow. Lorelai's checks were rosy and her smile undeniable. They stopped several times to kiss and throw snowballs. and soon arrived at the diner. Lorelai had a strange feeling come over her. Maybe this wasn't the best idea, but she didn't know why.
Luke looked up as they came through the door. It wasn't early but somehow it looked early for them. There was a certain look about her and the guy........who was this guy?
He brought them mugs and poured the coffee. Lorelai introduced them and quickly ordered two regulars. Eliminating the need for small talk.
"So, a regular, what's a regular?"
"You'll find out soon enough."
"OK, you haven't steered me wrong so far." Slyly smiling, "So about last night......and this morning.........especially this morning."
Lorelai giggled and looked up to see Luke coffee pot in hand. Luke cleared his throat, poured more coffee and turned to the next table. He wished he hadn't heard that comment. Didn't know why it bothered him, but it did.
Jason noticed Luke's discomfort and thought he saw a small Lorelai reaction too. "So, you two, any history there?" he motioned toward Luke.
"Me and Luke.......you're kidding, right? He's my friend, supplies the coffee, the food, and ............he's married, newlywed, actually."
It was Jason's job to read people, know what they are thinking..........and he didn't like what he was getting here. He took another look at Luke. He seemed to be about his age, built like an athlete, bearded, rugged, and definitely had more than 'friendly" feelings toward Lorelai. Married......maybe.......happy.......a definite no. He moved closer to Lorelai making sure Luke got the 'total picture'. It wasn't lost on Luke even though Lorelai was oblivious.
When Luke brought their food, Jason laughed at its enormity. "You eat like this everyday?"
Lorelai smiled but it was Luke who added, "No, this is a light day." He left feeling smug about his remark. Two could play that game. Although, he wasn't sure why.
Jason had to admit the food was good and he enjoyed watching her eat. Most of the women he dated picked at their food and resembled war refugees. Lorelai was soft and curvy and knew how to enjoy life. God knows, she had brought him much happiness in just two days.
He paid and they were on their way. He really did have to get back to Hartford and his luncheon with Richard. He wasn't sure he could look Richard in the eye right now, thinking about last night with his daughter.
Jason noticed that Luke was watching them, so he pulled Lorelai close and whispered something in her ear that made her giggle and Luke visibly cringe. Yep, Jason had his number, even if Lorelai didn't.
