Summer in Stars Hollow- The news/Useful disease?

Author's Note: I couldn't decide what to name the chapter but I think I like the disease part better ;-)

Disclaimer: Not mine, Luke would be slightly different if it was mine.

~*~That Friday night~*~

"Hello girls." Emily smiled as she answered the door.

"Hi Mom."

"Hi grandma." Rory smiled as they went inside.

"Come on in to the dining room, Richard and I have something we'd like to tell you."

Rory and Lorelai complied and went to the dinner table and sat down where salads were waiting for them.

"So mom, what's up?"

"Richard and I are going to Europe this summer. Therefore, Friday night dinners will be cancelled."

Lorelai attempted to not be too happy, "Actually that's good because Rory is going away to summer camp and wouldn't be able to come."

"Summer camp? What kind?" Emily asked curiously.

"It's a good program grandma, they're paying me to go to camp and I'll be taking college courses." Rory answered.

"Interesting. Well Lorelai, your father and I will be back in one month, you still have to come to dinner."

"Alright." Lorelai answered, not in the mood to argue.

They finished dinner civilly and Rory and Lorelai went to Luke's.

"She's EVIL!" Lorelai whined to Luke in the empty diner from across the counter.

"What now?" Luke sighed.

"She's making me go to Friday night dinner unarmed."

"What?" Luke asked in confusion.

"She's making me go, without Rory!"

"I'm sure it'll be fine."

"No it won't! I only have a month and a half to contract a disease. Do you have any useful ones you could share?" She asked jokingly.

Luke thought of something crude and attempted to suppress the smirk threatening his lips.

"What? Why are you smiling like that?"

"Nothing." he smiled.

"No, Luke Danes smiling isn't 'nothing'."

He smirked and leaned closer to Lorelai so Rory didn't hear and whispered, "Think about what you just asked me for a minute."

"Ugh!" She said in disgust but then she began to nod and looked at Luke approvingly, "Luke, I'm impressed. I never thought of you as the type of guy who thought with the wrong head."

Luke shrugged, "You learn something new everyday."

"Yeah, so what should I do about dinner?"

"Suck it up."

Lorelai pouted, "Meanie."

Author's Note: More chapters coming soon. I have 2 more written on paper but I need to write some more in between kinda chapters. It's still gonna be a few chapters before major Java Junkiness begins. I hope the little amounts you've been getting will suffice.
