Don't Go Away
Part 5: Here's to the Night…
Rating: Um, I'll leave it at the PG13/R for right now, I guess. Does it really matter that much to anyone, though?
Summary: Rachel was killed in a car crash. Luke regrets that he never got the chance to tell her (Rachel) how much he loved her before he died. A dream made him realize that that is what has been haunting him and stopped him from mourning Rachel's death. Luke finally told Lorelai that he loved her, in hopes that if he ever lost her, she would at least know the truth. She answered that she loved him too (Aww!!! :) Anyway, this chapter: Luke and Lorelai spend the night together... (It's another chapter for java junkies!)
A/N: Story updates may come less frequently. I've been sick this week and I've had nothing to do, so this is what I've been doing, but I plan to be back at school tomorrow so I won't be able to spend all this time writing. Also, the title for this chapter was taken from Eve6's song "Here's to the Night" from their *Horrorscope* album. Please review! Thanks! :)

Lorelai turned in his arms. "I don't want you to be alone tonight."
"Then stay." He said, softly.
"I need to call Rory." She slipped out of his arms. He pushed himself up on one elbow and watched her cross the room. *I can't believe I told her. I can't believe that this is happening… God, she's beautiful. But is this too soon?* He thought.
She picked up the phone and dialed. Balancing it between her shoulder and chin, she turned from Luke and re-buttoned her shirt. "Rory? Hey sweetie… I'm at Luke's… Yeah… It went well, I guess… Um, I'm going to be home late… Uh…tomorrow? Yes, at Luke's… I'll see you in the morning… I love you, too… Goodnight." She poured a cup of coffee from the pot on the counter before returning to Luke in the bedroom.
Lorelai sat down on the edge of the bed and looked at him over the rim of the mug as she sipped at the coffee. "You look good."
Luke smirked. "Good, how?"
She smiled and placed her mug on the night stand. "You look better than you did earlier."
"I feel better than I did earlier." He answered, his voice still soft. He reached for her and pulled her down beside him. She kissed his mouth gently. He smiled again. "You taste like coffee."
"Ah, well that's the price you pay for kissing me." She smirked. He put his hand behind her head and pulled her lips to his. He kissed her passionately. "Luke, are you sure?"
"If you are."
She paused. "I am." She kissed him again. Thoughts raced through her head, *This is Luke! Luke…your backwards-hat-wearing-coffee-provider. What are you doing?* She opened her mouth to allow his tongue, which was already poised on her lips. *Oh, God, this feels so right.* Her hands were running along the collar of his shirt then down along his suit jacket. She slipped her hands beneath the black fabric, over his chest and shoulders. His jacket slid over his shoulders and she moved her hands along his arms. He pulled away so he could un-do her shirt again and she was reaching for his belt.
When he had gotten her shirt off, he pulled her close to him. Her skin was so warm. He buried his face in the space between her neck and shoulder. *Strawberries* he thought, noticing her shampoo or soap. He kissed her neck softly and she held his head to her, her fingers getting lost in his hair. Luke felt her fingertips travel over his back then around to the front of his body, fingering the buttons of the oxford shirt he was wearing. She reached for his tie, first though, remembering it was there. It had been loosened some from before and she easily pulled it undone. His mouth searched for hers. The room was silent, except for their heavy breathing and the occasional sound of fabric being removed. She took off his shirt as he worked at her skirt. He murmured something against her skin and she trembled. He pulled away from her.
"Lorelai…" he held her at a distance from him. "You're so…"
"Beautiful?" Her smile turning into a brief laugh. "I get that a lot."
He smiled. "I love you." He drew her to him again. "I love you so much."

A/N: Yes, this is a very short chapter. Now I am totally stuck. I know last chapter I was thinking about ending it, but I really thought I'd probably continue. Now I'm not sure. I don't know if this chapter really fits with the rest of the story. Please review. I'd love to see what you have to say. Thanks!
