Jewls AN: hello all. We're back. As I posted in a review, everything that
is done, is done intentionally. Questions will be answered within the next
three or four chapters. Since there isn't much action in the chap
(although I happen to think this is the funniest chapter) we will post
chap6 as soon as it's been beta read by our fab, wonderful, and talented
beta-reader, (thanks Dana we looove you)
We are halfway done kiddies. Originally, we were going to have 10 reviews for a chapter, but I really don't want to make that kind of requirement. So, I'm just going to say, please review. We live off of this stuff. We love this fic sooo much (in time you will come to see just how much we love it) and seeing that other people enjoy it as much as we do...well, it means a lot.
Also, I want to say how happy I am that you have taken Bree and Dom into your hearts. The biggest fear with bringing in new characters is that people are going to hate them. Especially when they (seem, *hint, hint*) to come between a couple that fans are rooting for. It means a lot to me that you guys don't hate Bree. I think she's cool too. If you couldn't tell before, Bree and Dom are based on real people. The guy that Dom is mostly based on, thinks he's a celebrity now. SO don't be surprised if there is a review written by a guy claiming to be Dom. And the person that Bree is based on...well.....there isn't much I can say about that. So take it away Taylor!
Taylor AN: We like to keep you guessing. Seriously, I'm giggling at some of your reviews. I'm glad you're think the way you are, it means we've done what we wanted to do! LOL. And I agree with Jewls. I'm so happy you guys like Dom and Bree. They're so fun to right, and I'm happy you all like them as much as we do!
So please please please keep reading, and giving us your lovely reviews that mean so much, and thanks you all!
Now, on with the story……

"No."
"What are you talking about?"
Dom sighed, "You know this stuff will burn up your insides and slowly kill you? You shouldn't drink it."
Lorelai stared at him. "You're joking."
"I'm completely serious."
She continued to stare at him. "LUKE!" She cried.
"What?" Luke asked, exasperated, walking over from one of the tables.
"You ruined him."
"What did I ruin?" Luke asked, glancing at Dom.
"Him." She said, pointing to Dom, who stood there looking confused. "You turned him."
"I turned him into what?"
"Coffee Nazi. He won't give me coffee! He says it's bad for me!" Lorelai complained, not believe there could be two people with these insane ideas about coffee in the world.
Luke nodded at Dom, "Good man."
Dom nodded solemnly.
Rory entered just then, saying hello to Dom as she sat down next to her mother.
"Coffee, please," she said to him.
"Not you too! Coffee will ruin your skin and that beautiful face!" Dom replied.
Rory looked puzzled. Lorelai whispered to her, "Coffee Nazi."
Rory and Lorelai were engaged in an argument about the Friday night dinner as they sipped on the coffee they'd convinced Bree to give them. Bree was happily washing off the dirty tables, Luke was figuring something out on a calculator, Jess was fixing the broken toaster oven and Dom was talking to one of the few customers in the diner.
A loud smack came from the corner of the room. Lorelai and Rory looked behind them as Jess, Luke, and Bree all looked up from their separate jobs.
Dom walked away from the girl at the table, rubbing his cheek. The group all stared at him, raising their eyebrows. He shrugged, and said, "We're just going to be friends."
The diner that evening was packed. High school students filled the tables in joy of having freedom from school; Rory and Lorelai were there, as their house had no food, even Lane was there with a "get out of jail free" card from her mother.
"Dom, stay away…very, far away," Jess murmured to Dom as Miss Patty strode into the diner, her boa trailing behind her.
"Why?" Dom asked, looking the woman up and down.
"She's the female you."
"Oh!" Dom exclaimed.
"Hello, my lovely. What can I get you?" Dom asked as he walked to her table, adjusting his thick chain necklace.
Miss Patty stared at him in shock, "No thank you."
"Are you sure, sugar?" Dom smiled, batting his eyes. "I'm sure I could work out some sort of discount."
"Yes, I'm sure," she said, burying her head in a menu.
"Well, if you change your mind, I'll be waiting." Miss Patty remained silent.
Dom shrugged and walked backed to Luke and Lorelai.
"How did you do that?" Luke asked, looking over at the subdued Miss Patty.
Dom said indifferently, "I'm gifted."
"I wish I had that gift!" Jess said.
"That woman harasses every male within a two mile radius. And she hardly spoke to you!" Luke continued.
"Hey, you dress like me, maybe you can ward her off, too," Dom advised him.
"Okay, but he has to wear one of your dog collar things," Lorelai said with a grin. "AndI get to hold the leash."
Luke looked at her and smirked. A low growl erupted from his throat, then he walked away, leaving a stunned and speechless Lorelai.
"Did he just growl at me?" she asked in a disbelieving voice.
"I think he did," Jess smiled.
Bree leaned on the counter top, taking orders from the customers. "Can I help you?" she smiled at a teenage guy who was next in line.
"I think you can," the guy flirted.
Dom rolled his eyes at Jess, who laughed. "He has no idea who he's hitting on," Jess murmured as he passed Dom, taking three plates to a table.
While the guy tried in vain to get Bree to go out with him, Luke hastily cooked in the kitchen, with Dom's helpful assistance.
"Oh, shit," Bree said after the crack of a falling plate resonated throughout the diner. Applause shook the building, and Bree curtseyed, her tight top allowing the high-school boys a gratifying look when she bent over to pick up the spilled food and broken ceramic.
"Umm, we're ready to order!" a blonde guy called from an all-male table in the corner.
"I don't think they want me to take their order, Bree," Jess whispered to her. She laughed gaily, and walked over, adding a little swing to her hips.
"What can I get you?" she smiled.
"I think that's the third time they've ordered!" Luke exclaimed.
"She can make men do anything," Dom said, then turned away from him.
"Hello, beautiful," Dom smiled at the girl waiting at the counter. "I work here. I can get you a discount."
"Dom," Luke said warningly. Dom glanced at him, and looked back at the girl. Leaning over the counter to her, he said quietly, "Want the discount?"
Luke sighed and turned to Jess, saying, "That has to be the millionth time he's given a discount! And only to the females!"
"Hey," Jess said, "You may be loosing money on him, but you're gaining with Bree." They looked over at her as she started reciting the boys' order, "Five cheeseburgers, five cokes, five fries, and three pies."
The diner moved at that pace the whole night, Rory and Lorelai occasionally lending a hand. The steady flow of traffic finally died down, leaving just
the Gilmores, the Danes, and the newcomers.
Bree went into the kitchen with Luke, while Dom was stuck with the grueling job of wiping down all the tables. Grumbling all the way about the grunt work, he reluctantly gathered the towels and tubs to clean.
Jess was organizing the front counter, where Rory was still sitting.
"I haven't talked to you much lately," Rory said to him.
"I know, I've been so busy," Jess smiled at her.
"Did you read it again?"
"I told you, I didn't like it!" Jess laughed, and they fell into their comfortable rhythm of banter and insults.
Bree came out into the diner to grab a pen for Luke, and quietly observed the conversation between the two.
A small smile on her face, she returned to the kitchen.
