Chapter 8- and the nightmare continues part 2
[HARTFORD- THE BALLROOM]
"Lorelai you're late."
"I'm sorry mum. Rory here was running late too," says Lorelai a bit out of breath
"Don't make excuses Lorelai. Now come on I want to introduce you to someone."
"Coming mother. Rory save me."
"Sorry Lane and I have this mystery date of hers to find. Remember."
"Ugh horrible girl."
"Yet you still love me."
"Oh who couldn't love that face."
"Lorelai, hurry up" came Emily's voice from somewhere in the crowd.
"Good luck mum."
"I'm going to need it."
"Bye."
With that they parted on their separate ways.
[HARTFORD- SOMEWHERE IN THE DANCE HALL]
"Hello gorgeous," Dean told Rory as he slipped his hands around Rory's waist and kissed her.
"Well hello to you too."
"So where to start."
"Oh I know. Over there by the bar trying to be a bad boy," chirps up Lane.
"Not fair Lane," replies Rory
"What the hell is he doing here, " mutters Dean
"I don't know. Let's find out." Lane says and starts to drag them over to where Jess is standing.
"Lane, don't you look now." Rory grabs her hand and turns her back to face the entryway.
"Oh no. My one night out to have some fun and she is here to ruin it. Why? " Says Lane shaking her hands in the air.
" Well you better hide and quick," running quickly up to where Jess is pulls onto the dance floor.
"Well I think we are alone for a little while." Holding out his hands to Rory asking for a dance they head out to the dance floor and dance.
[ ACROSS THE DANCE HALL, ONCE MORE PLEASE]
"Lorelai I want you to met someone. I just know you will like him."
"Mum I really don't want to be set up by you."
"Lorelai you will like this man. I'm sure of it. You have a lot in common and that is hard to find for you now days."
"What do you mean nowadays?"
"You know."
"No I don't know so please explain. Now."
"You aren't as young as you used to be."
"Oh is that all. I think that is a turn on you mum."
"Whatever Lorelai. Now come here." Walking behind her mother they head towards a gentleman in a clean pressed tux facing away form them having a conversation with Richard.
"You look to have done alright mum. This time."
"You will love him. I'm sure of it."
"He looks really good from this angle and I can only guess what he looks like from the other angles." Smiling broadly she pulls at her dress
"Richard. I found her. Late as usual."
"Here I would like to introduce you to my daughter Lorelai." Interrupts Richard before Lorelai can answer. Facing his wife and daughter he waits for his guest to turn around. Slowly turning round Luke reveals himself.
"Luke Danes. Nice to met you." Smiling broadly he holds out his hand whilst holding a drink in the other.
"Lorelai Gilmore," responds Lorelai who is also smiling broadly and following suit.
"Richard, I want you to meet someone I just met. He is looking for some business advice." With that Emily and Richard walk off leaving Luke and Lorelai alone hoping for a miracle.
