*Disclaimer: I don't own the series Gilmore Girls or the characters. All I
own is my imagination and the plot.
*A/N: Hey!!! :-D I can't believe how wonderful you guys are! Thank you so much for all the reviews! I know I should just tape this message, so I can play it over and over, but I really appreciate it that you guys take the time to review. On to something else. After this chapter there's only one more chapter left!!! I'm so excited!!! Anyway review and let me know what you think of this chapter first, okay ? That way I know if you guys want the last chapter or not. ;-) It may be a little predictable, but I swear it's going to be a really sweet ending.
*~*~*:-)*~*~*Bye, smile :-)
As soon as the two Gilmore Girls got off the bus in Stars Hollow, they went over to Luke's, dragging their bags behind them. When they pushed open the door of the diner, Luke didn't even turn around, thinking it were just some of his usual customers.
L: ''Lukey, we're home !''
Luke stopped with what he was doing and finally looked up at the woman who he had missed so much. More than he would ever admit.
L: ''Get it ? I changed Lucy with your name.''
Lorelai dropped her bags on the floor and immediately Luke shot her an annoyed look.
Luke: ''Lorelai...............''
L: ''Yes Lukey ?''
Luke: ''You can't just drop your bags in the middle of the diner.''
L: ''What do you mean I can't ? I just did.''
Luke: ''We'll pick them up again and take them home.''
R: ''Can't, they're too heavy.''
Rory dropped her bags next to her moms and smiled at Luke.
Luke: ''So, you can carry them all the way over to my diner, but you can't carry them home ?''
L: ''Exactly. Besides we dragged them.''
Luke: ''You two are unbelievable.''
L: ''We missed you too Luke.''
Finally Luke cracked a smile and went around the diner, shaking his head. Lorelai was the first one to walk over to him and hug him.
L: ''Told you we would be back.''
Luke hesitated before he put his arms around Lorelai and hugged her back. It was an awkward hug, but awkward or not, it felt nice to have her in his arms. He would never tell her, but he had actually missed her begging for coffee and her annoying comments.
R: ''Just like The Terminator.''
Luke let go of Lorelai and looked up at Rory. The girl that he thought of as his own daughter. He walked up to Rory and met her eyes for a second before he pulled her into a hug. Rory smiled and hugged Luke back.
Luke: ''I missed you too, but if you ever tell your mom, I'll never give you coffee again.''
R: ''I missed you too Luke.''
By the time Luke let go of Rory and turned around, Lorelai was already behind the counter, pouring coffee into one of his biggest cups.
Luke: ''Lorelai, what are you doing ?''
L: ''Baking a cake.''
Luke sighed and pretended that he was really annoyed by her actions.
Luke: ''Asking would probably have worked too.''
L: ''Hah, you said probably which means that there was an actual chance that you might not have given me the coffee that I missed so much while I was in New York.''
Luke: ''I'll take that as a compliment.''
L: ''You do that. And this................''
Lorelai pointed at her coffee.
L: ''............will never happen again. From now on I'll just beg for coffee again.''
Luke: ''You're pathetic.''
But Luke didn't really mean it. He was happy that they were back and that everything was back to normal again.
L: ''I can say it in a seductive voice, if that works for you.''
Lorelai walked around the counter and sat down at the counter next to Rory.
Luke: ''If you want me to have nightmares.''
He took his place behind the counter and poured some coffee for Rory, who eagerly took it.
Luke: ''So, how was New York ?''
L: ''Oh, you know, same ol' same ol'.''
R: ''New York was okay Luke.''
Luke: ''Okay huh ? Then why did you guys come back ?''
L: ''Cause we missed this place silly.''
Luke: ''What about the Inn ?''
L: ''Got it covered. The whole town is holding a fair to raise money.''
Luke: ''Right, I think Taylor brought it up at the last town meeting.''
L: ''You think ?''
Luke: ''Yeah, he started about it at the end of the meeting. But before that he was talking about how there were not enough trees in Stars Hollow or something and everyone kind of blacked out.''
L: ''Say no more.''
Luke: ''You know, my sister and her nephew used to live in New York.''
L: ''Used to ? As in the past sense ?''
Luke: ''Yes Lorelai.''
L: ''Well, where do they live now ?''
Luke: ''No, I mean my sister still lives there, but my nephew doesn't.''
L: ''Where does he live ?''
Luke: ''He's still in New York.''
L: ''Luke, please remember that this is my first cup of coffee today.''
Luke: ''Liz is sending my nephew over here.''
R: ''Here as in Stars Hollow ?''
L: ''Cause personally I think he's better off on the streets than living with you.''
Luke: ''I agree. He has a better chance of surviving there than here with me. I'll probably kill him and it's going to be Liz's fault.''
R: ''How can it be Liz's fault when he's here ?''
Luke: ''Cause she has no parental skills whatsoever.''
L: ''And you do ?''
Luke: ''Because if she did, she wouldn't be sending him here to live with me.''
R: ''Why is she sending him here anyway ?''
Luke: ''Apparently she can't handle the kid. But really she just has a drinking problem and can't admit that she has to go to the AA or something.''
L: ''Does your nephew need to join the AA too ? Or another club where you have to start a sentence with, hi my name is Lorelai and I'm an somethingholic.''
Luke: ''Coffeeholic.''
L: ''That word doesn't even exist.''
R: ''So, if you wanna go to one of those clubs you have to change your name to Lorelai ?''
L: ''Yep.''
R: ''You must feel special now.''
L: ''I do. I've gotten all warm and fuzzy inside.''
Luke gave her a look.
L: ''Not that feeling Luke.''
Luke: ''God, Lorelai.''
R: ''So, why can't your sister handle him, except for her drinking problem ?''
Luke: ''Let's just say that he isn't the most easiest kid to handle. Apparently he hasn't been attending classes.''
R: ''He's been skipping school ?''
Luke: ''No, that's the weird part. He goes to school, but he just doesn't attend his classes.''
R: ''Then what does he do ?''
L: ''Yeah, why go to school when you're not planning on attending classes ?''
R: ''That makes no sense at all.''
L: ''Except if he wants to get detention, because his girlfriend's there too and.......''
R: ''Don't finish that sentence.''
L: ''Why not ?''
R: ''Cause I don't wanna know what they did in detention.''
L: ''They.................''
R: ''Mom.''
Luke: ''Lorelai.''
L: ''Fine, I'll change the story. They talked. There, happy ?''
Luke: ''Extremely.''
R: ''That story sucked.''
L: ''First of all if you're happy you're supposed to smile and second of all how can you say that the story sucked when you forced me to change it ?''
R: ''I didn't force you to change it.''
L: ''Yes you did, you said that you didn't wanna know what they did in detention.''
R: ''It was a request.''
L: ''You suck.''
R: ''Hey, Luke's the one who isn't smiling even though he said that he was extremely happy.''
L: ''You're learning fast.''
R: ''I've had 17 years to observe you.''
L: ''You observed me ?''
R: ''Yep.''
L: ''Why ?''
R: ''So, I can learn everything there is to know about Lorelai Gilmore.''
L: ''You do realize that that's creepy, right ?''
R: ''I know, but I just want to be like you when I grow up. You're my role model.''
L: ''Ah that's flattering, but still creepy.''
R: ''Luke, extremely happy, not smiling.''
L: ''Right. You've never watched me while I was asleep, right ?''
R: ''Focus on Luke.''
L: ''If I have to.''
Lorelai turned her head so she was looking at Luke again.
L: ''Question, why do you say that you're extremely happy when you never meant to smile in the first place ? There's not even a hint of a smile on your face. Nothing.''
Luke: ''Lorelai.''
L: ''N-o-t-h-i-n-g.''
Luke: ''I'm smiling on the inside.''
L: ''Really ? Can I see ?''
R: ''Why do you have to be my mom ?''
Luke: ''Yeah, why do you have to be her mom ?''
L: ''Not fair, it's two against three.''
R: ''I think it's pretty fair.''
Luke: ''Me too.''
A small smile appeared on Luke's face.''
L: ''Now you smile.''
Luke: ''My inside couldn't keep it for himself anymore.''
R: ''Nice visual.''
L: ''Hey, woman drinking coffee here. Don't ever talk about someone's inside when a woman is drinking coffee.''
R: ''How about if I'm talking about someone's soul ?''
L: ''Then just use the word soul instead of that other word.''
R: ''Inside ?''
L: ''That just sounded as if you were trying to ask a guy to................''
R: ''Someone's inside.''
Luke: ''I think that's it.''
Lorelai covered her ears.
R: ''She's sensitive.''
Luke: ''Don't make me laugh.''
L: ''We couldn't even if we wanted to. You probably wouldn't even laugh if we filled you with laugh gas.''
Luke: ''Someone's inside.''
Lorelai pressed her hands tighter against her ears.
L: ''You're liking this a little too much Luke. I don't like it.''
Luke: ''Now you know what I feel everyday.''
R: ''Like someone's inside ?''
Lorelai gave Rory an evil look.
Luke: ''I swear I'm never going to forget this day.''
R: ''Me neither.''
Rory took a sip from her coffee and smiled. She was glad that she was back and that things were back to normal. Translation, that Luke and her mom were bickering again and that she got to play the innocent bystander drinking her coffee. But for some reason she still felt a little sad. She may be smiling on the outside, but on the inside she was a mess. Her feelings were twisted, making her feel different things at the same time. One of those feelings was regret. Even though it was hidden at the bottom of her stomach, every time she thought of Jess it started to rise. And if she didn't stop soon, she would end up crying and ruining everyone's day. What was wrong with her ? She wanted to move back to Stars Hollow, she told her mom and she told Jess. But still she was almost sure that she lost a piece of her heart back in New York. She lost it to him. It was a little piece, but it was still big enough to make her feel horrible about leaving him.
L: ''When is your nephew moving here anyway ?''
Luke: ''Somewhere tomorrow.''
L: ''Very precise answer.''
Luke shrugged.
Luke: ''Liz only told me his name and that she would put him on the bus to Stars Hollow early in the morning.''
L: ''Is she crazy ?''
Luke: ''Pretty much.''
R: ''What's his name ?''
Luke: ''I think she said Jess.''
Immediately Rory's heart started to beat faster and it started to beat so loud that she could hear nothing else but her own breathing. Jess........... Could it be ? Rory shook her head when she realized that it couldn't be. The Jess she met attended classes, she saw it herself. Her heartbeat started to fade until it was back to normal. She quickly took a sip of her coffee to get rid of the cold shiver that was running down her spine. It couldn't be him, there was no way. It was impossible. She had to get her mind off of him. She left him in New York no matter how much she wished that he would magically appear. Wished weren't meant to come true anyway. She finished the last of her coffee and looked at her mom.
R: ''Are we going to the fair ?''
L: ''Of course we are.''
R: ''When ?''
L: ''Right now.''
Lorelai got up and quickly put on her coat. Rory did the same, but it took her longer than usual, cause her mind was in a different place.
L: ''Are you coming Luke ?''
Luke: ''Nope, I've a diner to run.''
L: ''But there are no people, everyone's at the fair.''
Luke: ''This place still has to be runned.''
L: ''Runned ? Did you just say runned ?''
Luke: ''I meant ran.''
R: ''Please come with us Luke ?''
Luke: ''Why ?''
L: ''Cause we want to spent some quality time with you.''
R: ''Those are her words.''
L: ''Just for a little while Luke ?''
Luke sighed and gave in.
Luke: ''Fine, but if someone comes in here while I'm at the fair it's your fault.''
L: ''How ?''
Luke: ''Cause you forced me to come with you.''
L: ''How can we force you when we have no gun ?''
R: ''Or a knife ?''
L: ''Or a water gun ?''
R: ''A water gun ?''
L: ''Yeah, or a whip ?''
R: ''A whip ?''
L: ''Sorry, slipped my mind.''
R: ''What were you thinking off ?''
Lorelai shrugged.
L: ''Just one of my fantasies.''
R: ''Eeeuw ! Luke can I move in with you ?''
Luke: ''I'm beginning to doubt your parental skills Lorelai.''
L: ''Look who's talking. Besides I never do it when Rory's home.''
R: ''God.''
Luke: ''Let's go.''
L: ''I thought you didn't wanna go to the fair.''
Luke: ''I don't wanna listen to you talk about your fantasies either.''
R: ''I vote for the fair too.''
Luke: ''Two against one.''
L: ''You guys are part of a conspiracy, aren't you ?''
R: ''Maybe.''
Luke sighed as he followed Rory outside, Lorelai close behind them going on about 'their conspiracy'.
By the time they reached Sookie's stand, Lorelai had finally dropped the subject and smiled at her best friend. Sookie started to yell something that neither Luke or Rory understood and then the two women hugged each other. Sookie and Lorelai started to talk about New York and the Inn and Taylor came over and started to argue with Luke about something. Rory looked around and smiled. This was how it was supposed to be. She knew that she couldn't stay here forever, but until that day came when she was going off to college, she would be here, surrounded by all the wonderful people in this strange, little town. Suddenly Rory heard someone shriek. She quickly turned around and smiled when she saw who it was.
Lane: ''Rory !''
Lane ran up to her and threw her arms around her best friend.
Lane: ''You're back !''
Rory hugged her best friend back and grinned.
R: ''I'm back.''
Lane: ''I missed you.''
Lane let go of Rory and looked at her.
R: ''I missed you too.''
Lane grinned.
Lane: ''I have so many things to tell you.''
R: ''Well, tell away.''
Lane: ''First you have to meet Dave.....................''
