Chapter 5- The will she, wont she game

[KIM'S ANTIQUES] "So Lane do you think it will work."

" I think so. Lets go ring David now."

" Can I go now? You've exhausted my brain."

" Fine you can go for now. Thanks Jess"

" Rory can you look out for my mother? She is inside doing something."

" OK but don't be long. Your mum always sneaks up on me."

" Alright I'm already ringing him now. David, Lane. I need a big favour." As she explains the plan to David, Rory keeps an eye out for Mrs. Kim.

" He can he said. He would ring here in another five minutes and talk to mum. I'm so excited I hope it works."

" I'm sure it will Lane."

Five minutes later the phone rings and Lane picks it up.

"Kim's antique. Lane speaking."

" David here. Put her on."

" Ok thanks David."

" You do realize you owe me."

" Yes I know that. Hang on for a moment and I'll get her."

"Mum. Phone for you." Lane cries out to her mother.

" Bring it here Lane."

" Here you go Mamma."

As the girls listen to Mrs. Kim they actually realize that Lane might just get to go to the ball.

"OK David I will tell her. Bye See you then" hanging up the phone she turns to find two sets of eyes staring at her.

" What did David want "

" He wants you to met a friend of his who is going to become a doctor and is Korean. I told him that you could go and that he would pick you up at 7 to go to the ball with him to met this friend. That's all." With that she turned and walked away.

Jumping up and down the girls realize that they both can go to the ball. Suddenly a thought pops into Lanes head and she stops jumping immediately.

" What am I going to wear? I have nothing."

" You can borrow something of mine. Lets go see what we have to chose from."

" Ok" and with that they walked down to Rory's house to try on clothes.

[LUKE'S APARTMENT]

"Uncle Luke do I really have to go to this ball."

"Yes you do."

" But can't I look after the dinner."

" All of Stars Hollow is going to be there, so there is no need."

" Great what am I meant to do at it any way."

"Dance. Not get into any trouble"

"Dance! I think I will read."

" And no reading" Luke pronounces as he walks out the door to feed the late night customers.

"Great"

[HARTFORD- GILMORE HOUSE]

"Richard. Did you send that tux to Luke today."

" Oh what. Yes the tux. I sent it this morning."

"Good dear. Now hurry up dinner is almost served."
