The next morning, Rory woke up early. She went to her mom's room and saw she was still sleeping. Rory woke her up , and Lorelai groaned.
"Too early. Must sleep." Lorelai said
"How was your date?"
"Fine, boring but fine."
"Boring?"
"Yeah, I mean Alex is a fun guy but I guess it's my fault for making boring since I didn't really focus on the date." Lorelai said sitting up on her bed
"And you were focusing on?"
"People and things."
"People? Like?"
"Is this 20 questions?"
"No, just wanted to know."
"Okay, fine I was thinking of someone okay?"
"Okay. I'm hungry. Lukes?"
"Yeah."
*****
"Good Morning, coffee?"
"Yeah, hold on."
"No lecture?"
"Nope."
"No refusal to give us coffee?"
"No."
"Wow."
"Yeah."
"Luke has always been a man of few words." Rory added
"Yeah."
"And lately so have you." Rory said , "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm just fine."
"Okay, you know you can tell me anything."
"Yeah."
"Okay."
"He set the date." Lorelai said
"Alex?"
"Yeah, in two weeks I'm getting married."
"Two weeks? Isn't that too soon?"
"Yeah, exactly what I told him."
"I'll make invitations."
"He's already one step ahead of you kid." Lorelai said taking out an invitation and showing it to Rory.
"Whoa, he got invitations ready?"
"Yup. He's rushing all of this."
"Are you going to invite Luke?"
"Yeah, I mean he invited me."
"He's coming." Rory said , "With our food."
Luke comes and put their food on the table. Lorelai thinks about if she should give Luke an invitation or not. She looks at Luke.
"Um, Luke?" Lorelai said
"Yeah?"
"Here", Lorelai said giving Luke the wedding invitation.
Luke takes a while to read it. He was amazed at what he saw. He sighs sits down next to Lorelai and looks out the window.
"It's an invitation."
"Yeah, to my wedding."
"Isn't it too soon?"
"I said that about your wedding too. Must be ironic how we both think it's too soon to get married."
"Yeah, I mean we're adults. We can handle it." Luke added
"Are you going?"
"Yeah, I guess."
"No flannel, no hats, nice shirt, tie please and --."
"Hold on Lorelai -- I know all of this already."
"Just making sure."
"Okay, just to let you know, I'll rent a tux. Just you make you happy."
"Okay, um I better get to work."
"Yeah, my bus is here."

At the Inn, Lorelai was writing something out for one of the guests when Emily came with a huge smile on her face.
"Lorelai I have wonderful news"
"Let me guess, you're moving and never coming back?"
"No, I've hired a wedding planner!"
"Mom."
"What?"
"A wedding planner?"
"Yes, all the way from France."
"I don't need Parisan wedding planners at my wedding mom."
"Well I've already hired him and he's coming."
"This is my wedding and I don't need you're help planning it!" Lorelai yelled and she left the Inn and headed for Luke's.
*****
"Coffee!"
"What's wrong?"
"My mother hired a wedding planner from France!"
"Ouch."
"Yeah, everyone's rushing my wedding. I mean Alex just told me yesterday about it being in two weeks."
"Oh."
"This is really annoying."
"You're gonna get through this."
"Really?"
"Yeah, I mean you've been though worse things."
"Like?"
"Things, like you're dad being in the hospital, and you know."
Lorelai thought about it for a minute about what Luke said and smiled. Luke had been there for her through all her tough moments.
"Yeah, thanks."
"Anytime."
Lorelai didn't know what had come over her when she did this but she didn't care, she went to Luke and hugged him.
"Bye." Lorelai said, "and thanks."
"Yeah, bye. and you're welcome.
****
"I hugged him." Lorelai blurted out when Rory came home after school.
"What?"
"Luke I hugged him."
"Why?"
"I don't know it just happened. I just hugged him."
"You love him don't you?"
"I don't know. If I do I can't."
"What?"
"I can't love Luke. I'm getting married to Alex in two weeks."
"Follow your heart young grasshopper. Many good things will come your way." Rory said
"Where'd you get that?"
"Paris is making us read about Buddism, for a project."
"Oh."
"Yeah, so I'll be saying things like that for a while."
"Please don't" Lorelai said laughing.
"I'll try."
