What The Heart Wants 23



Usual Disclaimers Apply

Around seven o'clock Rory and Jess went to the Inn and loaded all their suitcases into Jess's frontier. Then they drove back to the diner, figuring Luke would have opened up by now. Jess pulled up in front of Luke's diner, seeing the people inside eating, he put the truck in park and climbed out. Before he could get around to open Rory's door she was already out. He walked up beside her.

Jess: Told you Luke would have to open.

He said smiling and putting his arm around her. They walked up to the door and Rory turned the knob. It wouldn't open. Rory looked back at Jess.

Rory: But.but. Their all in there, eating. It's locked.

Rory looked back at the diner, into the windows and saw a full diner.

J: Their letting people in.

Rory looked back at Jess, giving him an aggravated stare.

R: Pointing out the obvious there buddy.

Her facial expression all of a sudden changed, changed to one of almost surprise.

R: Do you think the storage room is open?

J: Don't know.

He peered through a window, he saw the door wide open. He brought his gaze back to her.

J: It's open.

R: Do you think Luke shut the back door?

Jess grinned, she was finally catching on. Thinking street, well not really. But she really hasn't been using the brain he knows she has.

J: It's worth a try.

He took her hand in his and the two headed toward the alley that would bring them to the hopefully opened storage room door.

Inside The Diner.

Lorelai was upstairs asleep, while Luke was taking a shower. He had gone downstairs to let Caesar in and tell him who to let in, then went back upstairs to change.

Lorelai had fallen asleep on the couch watching TV. Luke wasn't going to wake her, so he just left her there. Anyway it gave him some time to think.

All of a sudden there was a loud noise that brought Luke out of his train of thought. He turned the water off and jumped out of the shower throwing a towel around his waist and running out into the apartment. He looked at the couch but Lorelai was gone, and so was his table and lamp that stood beside that couch. He lowered his gaze to the floor and saw Lorelai with the lamp and table next to her. A smile forced its way onto his lips before he walked over to her. He then realized that she was entangled in the lamp cord, he reached down and helped her.

Luke: Are you ok?

Lorelai: Yea, yea fine. I do this all the time.

Lorelai just waved her hands at him, he then helped her stand.

Luke: Sure you do.

L: Well do you always walk around in a towel?

He had forgotten about just getting out of the shower. His cheeks turned a light pink. He casually stood up as if nothing was wrong he headed back to the bathroom.

Luke: So what if I do? It's my apartment.

Lorelai just laughed as Luke closed the door to the bathroom.

Downstairs.

The two were standing right outside of the storage room, the back door wide open.

Rory: Yay!

Jess: Now let's see if we can sneak in.

Rory grinned and followed Jess through the storage room. When they came to the front of the storage room they could hear people talking. Jess turned to Rory and told her to stay while he went up to see if Luke and Lorelai were out in the diner. When he saw they weren't he motioned for Rory to come on out, they went up to the counter and sat down. Rory asked Caesar for a cup of coffee, Jess asked for water. Rory and Jess looked at each other and grinned.

Rory and Jess both looked up when they heard someone coming down the stairs about five minutes later. It was Luke and Lorelai. Their faces turned from grinning to shock in a matter of seconds when they saw Rory and Jess sitting at the counter. They couldn't believe they were sitting there, they had been locked out.

Rory: Hey mom, sleep good?

Lorelai finally pulled her mouth closed. She walked over and sat beside the grinning Rory.

Lorelai: Yes I did, how about you?

R: I slept good. Luke?

Luke: Yea fine.

Rory and Jess grinned.

L: What was the point in locking us in there?

Rory looked at Jess, it had been his idea, he should answer.

Jess: There was no point.

L: Ok, then what was the reason for locking us in?

Jess just shrugged.

J: No reason.

Lorelai sighed.

L: Rory how could you do that to me?

R: Well it really didn't look like you and Luke minded, didn't mind at all.

Lorelai's mouth again dropped open, she knew exactly what Rory was talking about. Lorelai lifted a finger and pointed at her and then Luke.

L: You... Saw.. You saw us?

Rory just nodded her head and took a sip from her coffee.

L: How?

R: We heard something loud and opened the door to see what. We found out that it was you against the shelves.

J: I didn't know you knew how to kiss Uncle Luke, I was starting to think you were a little.. Well you know.

Jess grinned. Rory and him defiantly were getting the best part of this. Luke turned from talking to Caesar and leaned on the counter right in front of Jess, he put his finger in his face.

Luke: Listen, my personal life is none of yours or anybody else's business for that matter. Got it.

J: Hey don't worry Uncle Luke, I won't tell anyone.

Jess again smirked. No matter what Luke said Jess always had a come back. Luke just turned around and went to go take more orders.
