*Hi! I know that I haven't updated in a while, but I was working on my other story.
*Luke is staying at Lorelai's house b/c she doesn't want to be lonely. They will find out their feelings shortly.
Once Luke had left to go back to the diner, Lorelai decided to call Rory.
'Hey babe! How was orientation?'
'It was so great mom! I learned everything that I needed for my classes, how to write faster for the notes, and then we took a tour of the school so we wouldn't be lost for classes on Tuesday.'
'That's great Hun. I'm glad that you like it there.'
'So what have you been up to in the past ten hours that I haven't seen you?'
'O well you know, I went to Luke's, had coffee, criedonhisshoulderandnowheisgoingtostayhereforawhile. You know, that sort of stuff.'
'Mom, what did you just say? Something about should, Luke, staying over…what was that all about?'
'Fine, but don't make fun of me for it though.'
'I won't.'
'Ok, well once I came back to Stars Hollow, I didn't want to go back to an empty house, so I naturally went to Luke's.'
'Naturally.'
'Well my eyes were red from crying in the car, and he asked what was wrong, so I told him that I just came back from leaving you. He closed the diner down till six since no one was in there. Then we went upstairs and sat on the couch, and I told him everything, which made me cry.'
'Luke actually handled you crying?' Rory said, pretending to see an uncomfortable Luke and a hysterical Lorelai.
'Shush my child and let me continue.' Smiled Lorelai.
'Yes my master.'
'Well eventually I said that I couldn't handled it like he does, and he didn't know what I was talking about. So I said that I couldn't handle being alone…'
'O mom, I'm sorry.'
'Don't be Rory, this is good for you. Now here comes the shocker…he says that if I want, he would stay at the house with me for a while so I wouldn't be lonely.'
'Luke said that?'
'Luke said that.'
'Oh my god, so what did you tell him?'
'Umm well I…'
'You let him stay at our house?'
'Are you mad?'
'Mad? Why would I be mad? This is great, I was so worried that something would happen to you, and no one would no.' That was the excuse she made, but she really wanted the two to finally see their feelings for each other, and that this would be the best way to see it.
'O great. I'm glad you don't mind. O hey! Guess what your grandma told me, well told Frank (the answering machine).'
'What did she tell Frank?'
'She said that since you won't come home till Thanksgiving, that I don't have to come to any dinners on Friday till then! Yay!'
'Mom! O well, just wait until Thanksgiving. Hey mom, I have to go ok?'
'Ok sweets. Bye, love ya!'
'Love ya to, bye!' and then they hung up.
Lorelai looked around the house, and decided to clean up a bit since it was messy. Not that she would do it on a regular basis, but it was pretty messy; things just lying all over the place…wasn't too attractive at all.
After she finished cleaning up, it was ten o'clock, time for Luke to come home. 'Coming home…hmm doesn't sound bad for Luke. Wait a minute, were am I getting at this?' thought Lorelai. 'Do I want him to stay here and call it his home? Or what?' Thought Lorelai, but there was no more time to think because she heard Luke's truck pull in.
'Hey Lorelai.' Said Luke walking through the front door with two cups of coffee and a bag of food in his hand.
'COFFEE!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Oh my god! I worked like no other when you were gone.'
'You worked? What did you do?' said a disbelieving Luke.
'Ugh Luke! I'm hurt that you don't think I can work! Can't you see that I cleaned the place up? Joked Lorelai.
Luke then looked around and gave a 'nod' saying that he saw what she had done. 'Are you hungry?'
'Do you even have to ask?' said Lorelai as they both walked into the kitchen.
'Your right, what am I thinking?' smiled Luke.
As they ate, they just talked about Rory and Yale, and then 'flirted' as they naturally do when they are at the diner. After dinner, they sat on the couch flipping through the channels to see what was on. After a few minutes of seeing nothing, both were tired and ready to go to bed.
'Lorelai, umm where am I sleeping tonight?'
'O right. I totally forgot that. Hmm lets see. Well after the fire at the inn and having the 'Poes' sleep in her bed, I highly doubt that Rory would want you to sleep there.'
'Ok…the Poes?'
'Well the same time as the inn's fire, we had a Poe society convention, and some of the society stayed here at my house. Then I joked with Rory that hopefully the couple sleeping in her bed, didn't get a little happy that night. Since then she didn't want any one sleeping in her bed.' Explained Lorelai.
'O…so that means that I get the couch then.' Luke wished that he could actually be upstairs with Lorelai, but knew that would never happen.
'Well actually, this couch will kill your back if you sleep on it for too long.'
'So that leaves me to sleep…'
'In my bed.' Said Lorelai without skipping a beat. Luke just looked shocked and just kind of blushed.
'Please. We are both adults here, and all we will be doing is just sleeping in the bed.' Stated Lorelai, as she emphasized the word sleeping.
'Ok well then should we go to bed now?'
'Sure, bring your bag up.'
Soon they were upstairs, and Luke went into the bathroom to change. Once Lorelai was done, she knocked on the door to tell Luke that he could come out now.
Each of them surprised each other by what they were wearing. They didn't mind because that was what they always wore to bed. Lorelai was wearing a bedtime dress from Victoria's Secret. (I forget what the heck you call those, but it was exactly the same thing she wore on the first episode of the third season…the one were she and Luke kissed.) Luke came out wearing just only his boxers…that were plaid! Lorelai just laughed at that.
'What's so funny?' Luke said feeling a little uncomfortable.
'Haha! You were plaid during the day, and now u were plaid boxers!'
'Yea well…' He couldn't think of a comeback.
'Good one!' said Lorelai still laughing.
'Whatever lets just go to bed.'
'Fine you grinch.' Snorted Lorelai. Luke just glared at her. Lorelai took the left side, and Luke took the right side. Luke couldn't believe how calm she was. 'I mean, I'm right next to her, in my boxers…and her in that dress…' Thought Luke. Lorelai thought back to earlier that day when she liked the thought of Luke staying here and calling it 'his home.' 'I never thought Luke could be that muscular! All I ever see him is in long plaid shirts…hehehe, plaid boxers! O this is crazy, Luke doesn't like me like that…does he?' With that thought in mind, Lorelai fell asleep.
Pretty soon both adults fell asleep. Luke only woke up twice to Lorelai's kicking because she moves so much in bed. And when they woke up, Lorelai's head laid on his chest, with her right arm draped over him. Luke had his right arm protectively behind her back when they were sleeping.
A/N- Hi! I'm not really sure on how good this chapter was written, but just bear with me…I'm new at this. I think I am better at writing Trorys!
R/R!
