Luke couldn't believe his eyes. The kid he had been following was none other than Brad. Not only was it Brad, but it was Brad walking to the Gilmore house. 'That kid has no idea what the hell he just got himself into…' Luke thought as he quickly and swiftly made his way toward Brad. By this time, Brad was almost at Rory's house and Luke broke into a run after him. There's no way this jackass is going to see Rory again…' thought Luke. Just then Brad stopped at the end of Rory's driveway and tilted his head sideways as if he was looking for something in the Gilmore's jeep. That's when Luke saw that Rory and Lorelai were in the car, obviously talking about something and getting ready to leave for there road trip. Luke was to busy looking at the Jeep to notice that Brad had glanced over and saw Luke running towards him.
That was when Brad broke into a sprint, towards the jeep and Luke broke into an even faster run after Brad.
"Get back here you psycho!!!" Luke yelled, "Lorelai! Rory! Lock your door!!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lorelai and Rory heard Luke and looked back to see what he was doing when they heard him yell to lock there doors. They had just done so when a loud bang came Rory's side of the jeep. It was Brad banging on her window.
"Rory! Rory!! Its me, Brad! Please open your window, I love you Rory! You cant just ignore that, you know I love you and I know you love me! Rory please open your window!" Brad was yelling this and banging on her window profusely when all of a sudden, he disappeared. That's when Lorelai and Rory saw Luke.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Luke had seen Brad banging on Rory's window and the terrified look in her eyes, that's when Luke became enraged and decided he was going to let Brad have it.
"…Rory please open your window!" Luke heard Brad yell, but that was the last thing he had gotten out before Luke grabbed his legs and pulled them out from underneath him, causing Brad to fall hard on the ground.
"What the hell are you doing Luke?!" Brad screamed.
"I'm giving you exactly what you deserve!!" Luke hollered back, then he proceeded to pick him up by his shirt and slam him against the jeep. "What the hell were you thinking when you hit Rory? Huh? Were you thinking, 'wow I must be a hard-ass because I can hit a girl?' was that it?! Do you have any idea what kind of mistake you made when the thought of hitting her even crossed your mind? DO YOU?" Luke slammed him even harder against the jeep, trying to force an answer out of him.
"I love her! It was a mistake but I love her! I got help, ok? I got help!" Brad exclaimed, sounding like he was on the verge of tears.
"Oh you got help? Well then…" Luke said calmly, placing him back down on the ground. "Why didn't you say that before?"
"Because man, you never gave me a chance…" Brad said, brushing off his shoulders and shirt, and obviously trying to regain some of his dignity.
"So… I guess now that your getting help that should just erase what you did to her?" Luke asked.
"No not really but, It should help her to get over it you know?" Brad stated, thinking that Luke was converting to his side of the story.
"Right. So what your saying is, you can hit someone but as long as you get help afterwards then its like nothing happened?"
"Uh, yea I guess. Well not like NOTHING happened but she can stop making such a huge deal out of it."
"Good."
"Good?"
"Yup."
"Why good?"
"Because now I can do this!" Luke punched Brad with all his might and sent him flying across the driveway. Brad was on the ground and Luke walked back up to him, "But I mean, as soon as this is over im going to get help and then everything will be better so you shouldn't worry!" Luke yelled, picking Brad up and punching him again. "Your and IDIOT for thinking Rory will EVER take you back!" Luke screamed at Brad, and kneed him in the stomach, causing Brad to double over in pain and fall to the ground. Luke was just about to throw another punch when Lorelai screamed at him not to.
"Luke! Luke!!! Stop it! Please Luke!" Lorelai screeched. She had been yelling at Luke since he threw the first punch, but the adrenaline was so high that Luke couldn't even hear her. But then he did, and immediately stopped. He back up and looked at Brad, who was holding his stomach on the ground and had blood streaming down his face.
'Oh my God, what did I do?' Luke thought. Then he looked back over at Lorelai, who was covering her nose and mouth with her two hands and staring at Brad in disbelief.
"Oh God, Lorelai, I'm so sorry you had to see that. Are you Ok?" Luke walked over to Lorelai and she grabbed him and held on to him tightly.
"Thank you…" she whispered in his ear.
Luke smiled and replied, "Your welcome" he whispered back. "Ill be right back…" Luke said, making his way towards Brad.
Luke picked him up and stood him upright. He got an inch away from his face and then said in his deepest, manly voice, "If you come - back I'll kill you." With that, Brad bolted away from the Luke and didn't look back once. Luke looked back over to where Lorelai had been but she wasn't there, she had walked over to Rory's side of the car and was comforting her.
"Hey sweets, are you Ok?" Rory was crying and shaking, seeing Brad banging on the window and screaming had brought back memories - bad ones.
"Yea, uh, yea Mom I'm… ok." Rory stuttered. She looked over and saw Luke standing behind Lorelai looking around sheepishly.
"Excuse me Mom," Rory said, making her way out of the jeep. Lorelai had gotten out of her way and Rory ran to Luke and gave him a huge hug.
"Luke thank you so much. You… you've always been there. Your like a Dad to me, and I cant even tell you how much what you just did means to me." She smiled and him and he smiled back, confirming that he felt like a Dad to her as well.
"Well, uh, yea well I should probably go. I left Jess to watch the diner and God knows whats going on there now…" Luke stumbled to say, he was never good with words and never really knew what to say, "So, you guys have fun on your road trip and I'll watch the house for you."
"Thank you so much Luke, we love you!" Lorelai said, which caused Luke to blush a little but he hid it well.
"Yea, um, see you later." Luke began to walk back towards where he left Jess's car.
'Dammit!' he thought, 'I forgot to get the part to that stupid stove…"
