Author's Note: Sorry about the Big Kirk Little Kirk/ Cat Kirk Human Kirk mix-up. I guess I'll have to watch those scenes more carefully next time! ;) Tell me if you think I wrote Christopher out-of-character this chapter please. Be sure to read the author's note at the bottom! R&R!
Chapter 14: Christmas Endings - For Now.
Lorelai quickly pulled away from Luke and said, "Christopher? How did you know that we moved?"
"Emily told me. What are you doing?" Christopher asked.
"Are you here to see Rory?" Lorelai questioned.
"No. What are you doing?" Christopher persisted.
"I'm kissing my boyfriend, is that so horrible?" Lorelai finally blurted out after an awkward silence.
"You're dating?" Christopher finally choked out.
"Yes. Remember, your girlfriend is pregnant. You've moved on. I think that gives me the right to kiss another man, Christopher." Lorelai explained.
"But I still love you. I want to be with you." Chris told her and he reached for her hand. She withdrew her hand before he could grab it and firmly gripped Luke's.
"I don't love you like that anymore, Christopher. I'll always love you as Rory's father, but nothing else. I've moved on to Luke. I love him now." Lorelai said.
Luke squeezed her hand, and said, "And I love her too."
"So you think that you can just pretend that we never happened?" Christopher said in disbelief.
"No, I'll always remember you and our love and our time together. But I can't pretend that we aren't in this situation, and I can't pretend that I don't love Luke." Lorelai said gently.
"Well I refuse to believe this." Chris declared.
"Well, you can refuse it all you want, but at some point you have to realize that what I am saying is true." Lorelai told him. "Now I think you need to go. Our family is about to decorate the house for Christmas, and your family probably wants you over there helping them."
"Lor, come on, you know that you and Rory are my family." Chris defended.
"No, Sherry and your new kid are your family now." Lorelai said, trying to keep her composure. "Now please leave."
"But Lorelai-"
"Hey, she asked you to leave Dad. I think you should respect her wishes in her own home." Rory interrupted.
"Fine. Rory, I'll call you later." Chris said as he walked out.
"Bye Dad." Rory said.
"You guys wanna put off putting up the Christmas decorations until tomorrow? We can call up all our friends and enlist their help." Lorelai joked to lighten the suddenly dreary mood.
"Sure Mom." Rory said. She kissed her mother on the cheek and said, "Goodnight."
"Night, honey. Luke, you tired too?"
"Yeah, let's go to bed." Luke said, and they headed upstairs. Luke had his arm around Lorelai's shoulders, and she leaned her head on his shoulder. "So, did you mean what you said downstairs?"
"Everything." Lorelai replied instantly as they rounded the corner to their room.
"Any regrets?" Luke asked apprehensively.
"Nope. I love YOU and I want to be with YOU. For as long as my caffeine- filled life shall be." Lorelai told him.
Luke chuckled, and said, "Good. Me too."
The next day.
"Alright, we forgot. But we came now, doesn't that count?" Jess asked Lorelai as they walked into the house. Lorelai had told Luke and Jess to be home by 4:00. It was now 4:45, and they had just arrived after forgetting and working at the diner instead.
"Don't forget again, you two." Lorelai warned. "There will be dire consequences."
"We've seen the light." Luke said in a mocking tone.
"Good." Lorelai said. They entered the living room, where Rory was sitting with Lane, Paris, Alli, and Sookie. "Time to do some decorating!"
"Hey Ror," Jess said. He leaned in and gave her a short kiss.
"Hi Jess." Rory replied.
"Ok, enough with the mushiness. On to the decorating. Now this house is very big, so we got a bunch of decorations. Sookie and Luke, come with me. Rory, Jess, Paris, and Alli go decorate somewhere else." Lorelai instructed. "Jess, do you think you can handle being in charge of all these girls?"
"What?" Paris and Alli exclaimed.
"Mom!" Rory protested.
"Chill out, I was just joking. You all can do fine without any supervision." Lorelai said. The three girls turned to grab a box, and Lorelai mouthed to Jess, "You're in charge."
"Ok." Jess mouthed back, and gave her the thumbs up.
"Did you say something, Jess?" Rory asked as she turned around to face him.
"No." He defended. He quickly put his hands in his pockets and looked up with a guilty face.
Rory just rolled her eyes, and said, "Let's go." Rory leaded Alli, Jess, Lane, and Paris to the study, and set down her box. "Ok, this box has a bunch of," Rory glanced down into the box, "garland and stuff in it. So let's just hang it up around here." She pulled out a long strand of red garland, and Jess grabbed the other side. They began to hang it on top of the bookshelves, with the help of ladders of course. Paris and Alli grabbed a strand of green garland, and began to weave it in with the red after Rory and Jess put it up. Lane grabbed some silver bows and hung them up on the garland as well. As they were working, Rory said, "So Lane, how's Dave?"
"Great. My mom still thinks that he's a church-boy, so I can go out with him whenever I want!" Lane squealed.
"Really? That's great, Lane." Rory replied with a smile.
Later on, Lane, Paris, and Alli had all left for dinner. Rory and Jess were finishing off the garland (their study was very big). Rory slipped and fell off the ladder. Luckily, Jess was standing just below and caught her in his arms. Their noses were inches apart, and he gave her a sweet kiss. "Merry Christmas, Rory."
"Merry Christmas Jess." Rory said happily.
Author's Note: Ok, I'm really sorry, but for now that's the last chapter. *ducks behind a nearby staircase to avoid being pelted with bad fruit* I'm sooooo sorry everyone! I will try to write a sequel in a few months, so be on the lookout! I'll write something in big bold letters in the summary so that you'll know. Thanks for reading this; it's been my first attempt at any fan fiction, not even to say Gilmore Girls fan fiction. I appreciate all of you bearing through my bad work and all that stuff. Thanks so much! Happy Holidays!
