better than most so please when you finish reading it review and tell me
what you thought. I write the best when I get reviews so I really need
reviews. Thanks! So now on with the story!
It had been a week since Lorelai had given her explanations to everyone, or at least Luke and Rory. Those were the two that needed to know the most. Everyone else could wait a while. Lorelai slowly walked into Luke's diner. She and Rory's relationship had taken a small turn for the worse. Rory was still upset with Lorelai for keeping this from her but she was talking to her so Lorelai took that as a small start. She would be back to normal sooner or later, though Lorelai hoped it would be sooner rather than later. She walked up to the counter and sat down. Luke looked up from washing the counter and went back to work.
Luke: What can I get you?
Lorelai: (thinking) Um I'll have an egg white omelet with a glass of orange juice.
Luke looked up, surprised at what Lorelai ordered.
Luke: You are Lorelai right? Cause the Lorelai I know would.....
Lorelai: Yeah I know but I figured I would see what you liked in that specific order.
Luke: Oh....yeah well um here's your order.
5 minutes later Luke came out of the kitchen with her order. He sat it down in front of her and she just picked at it for a moment. Finally Luke decided to make conversation.
Luke: So how's Rory?
Lorelai: (surprised) Oh Rory, she's fine. School should end soon so she's been studying for those finals that they give her.
Luke: Oh yeah well studying is good. Rory's a good kid.
Lorelai: (quietly) I know
Lorelai started to eat her food for a little bit but then stopped. She looked at Luke who she could tell was really trying to avoid talking to her. Well that was to bad because she wanted to talk to him.
Lorelai: I'm sorry Luke
Luke looked at her in confusion. He couldn't think of why she would say that she was sorry but then realized what she was saying.
Luke: Lorelai I know that you're sorry. You don't need to tell me.
Lorelai: I just figured...I mean (Quietly) She thinks of you as a father figure
Luke: (confused) What?
Lorelai: (quietly) You have always been there for her. I mean before you even knew she was your daughter you still cared about everything. You still cared about her school and her life, and I thank you for that. I think its great that you still want to be involved and...
Luke: (suddenly) Will you go out with me?
Now it was Lorelai's turn to be confused. Wouldn't Luke be mad? Why wasn't he mad? Was he insane? She tells him that after 16 years he fathered a child and he never even knew it and now he asks her out!
Lorelai: What?
Luke: I like you Lorelai. I always have and I want to be apart of your life. I want to be apart of Rory's life. So please will you go out with me?
Lorelai: (shocked) Yes
Luke: You will?
Lorelai: Yes
Luke: Thank you so much. How about Friday night around 7? I'll pick you up.
Lorelai: Sound's great.
A/n: Ok so not much longer but, it is 2 pages long. Anyway please don't forget to review and tell me what you think. I really need to know.
