AN: I made up Luke's middle name cause I don't know if he has one. I can just imagine it being something like Clarence... but I wouldn't do that to Luke. Sorry about the chapter mix up… I hope it's fixed now… I did my best… anyway… to continue…

Lorelai walked into the diner, armed with a witty and intelligent speech she was completely prepared to say to Luke in a quiet, calm voice. What she actually said came out somewhat differently.

"Lucas Alexander Danes!!" Lorelai exclaimed loudly. "Why didn't you tell me?!"

Luke looked up, shocked to see Lorelai back so soon, and wondering what the hell she was talking about.

"Um, tell you what?" He asked innocently. Lorelai suddenly realized that she had screamed her thoughts out into the somewhat crowded diner. She had completely forgotten her eloquent speech and now just looked at Luke, dumbfounded.

"Can we... talk?" She said. This was not working out the way she had planned.

"Why didn't I tell you what?" Luke asked, ignoring her last statement. Lorelai looked around the diner. People were looking at them, and she knew every thing she'd say would be all over town if they didn't go somewhere more private.

"Can we not talk about this here?" she asked, feeling all of a sudden, very small.

"Talk about what?" Luke asked, still confused.

"THIS..."

"Oh... Kay..." Luke said and sauntered off toward his apartment. He wasn't sure if he and Lorelai were still fighting or not, and he couldn't read her facial expression. She looked... worried; Luke for the life of him couldn't figure out why.

They got to his apartment and he opened the door, letting Lorelai step in before him. She sat awkwardly down on his couch, and he sat on the coffee table, facing her.

"Lorelai?" He said

"Yes?" She replied.

"What did you want to talk about?"

Lorelai realized that Luke had no idea what was going on. She froze. What if Sookie was wrong? What if she had been imagining every lingering stare or jolt of electricity? What if Luke never saw her as anything more than an annoying customer who practically paid his food bills with the amount of money she'd spent at his diner? The what ifs swam through her mind as she felt herself chicken out. "Umm...I..." she stammered.

"What?" Luke asked gently.

"What did you mean when you said you didn't want to be my friend anymore? Do you really hate me that much?" She blurted.

"Excuse me?" Luke said, shocked. "You think I hate you?"

"I was kinda hoping I was wrong." Lorelai said, refusing to look into Luke's eyes. Looking anywhere but at him.

"Lorelai..." Luke started.

"If this ends with anything even resembling 'you were right' I'm leaving right now," She said, looking at the floor.

"Lorelai..." he started again.

"Luke... I don't think I can do this."

"Do what? I still have no idea what the hell you're talking about!"

"How can you not?"

"Well, seeing as though you haven't actually told me, it's kinda tough"

"You want me to tell you?" She said slowly.

"I think right now I'd settle for you looking at me" Luke replied tilting his head so that he could get a better view of her face, "Come on"

"Sookie said..." Lorelai trailed off. She sighed and started again. "And my mom..."

"What did they say?"

"They keep saying the same thing, and I don't know what to think of it because I always assumed they were wrong until very recently"

Luke let her continue at her own pace, still confused.

"The thing they were saying is... that, they keep saying that you like me"

"Of course I like you" He said calmly.

"But they say that you like me more than just in that friendly 'witty- banter-diner-guy' type way"

She finally looked up at Luke. His face was a blank slate. Lorelai quickly looked away. "I just wanted to know whether this was true."

Luke didn't say anything. Lorelai didn't look up.

Luke didn't know what to say. Should he tell her? Should he wait for her to say something? Should he run? Should he... it was just... confusing.

"Lorelai," he finally said. Lorelai looked up and into Luke's eyes. "Do you want it to be true?"
