Dreams- The new dream

~*~

"Hey." Luke smiled as Lorelai entered the empty diner.

Lorelai leaned over the counter and kissed him, "Good morning." she smiled.

"How were your dreams?"

Lorelai attempted to frown, "Horrible."

"Oh really?" Luke said disbelievingly, "What about?"

"Um, Hannibal Lector, and, um, he tried to, um, eat my brain?" she lied obviously.

Luke smirked, "Nice try. What were your dreams really about?" he asked as he poured her a mug of coffee.

Lorelai breathed deeply as she took the first sip, "They were perfect."

"Way to be descriptive." Luke said sarcastically.

"Amazingly perfect." she grinned.

"So what was it about?" he asked curiously.

"You really want to know?"

"Let me guess, we got married and Sookie made our cake and not only was it a coffee cake, it was shaped like a cup of coffee?"

"Wow." was all Lorelai could say.

Luke smiled, "She's speechless, I have to write this down. Actually I had the same dream."

"Shut up. Wow, that's really, really weird."

"Yeah. So you want to get married?" Luke asked curiously.

"Maybe eventually, especially if Sookie makes that cake." she grinned.

Luke rolled his eyes, "You are so odd."

"But you love me anyway."

"Yep."

"Oh no!" Lorelai gasped.

"What?"

"In my dream, I was wearing the perfect dress,"

"You were really, really, amazingly beautiful in it too." Luke interrupted.

"It was perfect, and you saw it!"

"So?"

"So?! The groom isn't supposed to see the bride in her dress before the wedding; it's bad luck!" she pouted.

"Lorelai, we aren't even engaged yet, I'm sure it's okay. It was just a dream. I bet it'll be even better when it actually exists."

"Why are you so smart?"

"Because I have to keep you at a reasonable level of sanity."

"Sanity is so overrated." she smirked.

"The jacket you'd have to wear would be very uncomfortable."

"They're ugly too!"

"Glad to know you have your priorities in order."

"But I do! Rory, you, and coffee!"

Luke shook his head, "I can't believe I am followed directly by coffee."

Lorelai grinned, "You used to be on the same level but you've moved up in the world."

"Well, that's good." Luke smiled and leaned over the counter and captured Lorelai's lips in his own as Jess walked down the stairs.

"Ugh!" Jess groaned and rolled his eyes going back to the top of the stairs, "I'm going to try this again." he announced as he walked back down. Lorelai pulled Luke into the storage room before Jess came back down, "That's worse!" he yelled, "You're leaving too much to the imagination."

Lorelai giggled, "When did Jess get witty?"

Luke rolled his eyes, "He's always been like that."

Lorelai put her arms around his neck, "How long do you think he'd let us stay in here?" she asked.

Luke wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer to him, "Not long enough." he answered as he leaned in and kissed her.
