Merry Thanksgiving-Chapter 10
________________________________________________________________________
After they were all bundled up, Luke and Lorelai left the house for a walk to the lake.
"So have you heard from Rory since last night?" asked Luke breaking the silence.
"No, I probably won't talk to her until she gets back; she knows better then to run up her phone bill," said Lorelai. "Gosh, I wish she could see this, she'd think it was great."
Lorelai began to shiver as the snow began to fall.
"Here take my jacket," said Luke peeling off his top layer.
"No, I'm fine" said Lorelai rubbing her hands on her arms.
"Fine? You're wearing a jean jacket over a T-shirt, you must be freezing. You should know by now that those clothes won't cut it with a Connecticut winter."
"Yes but don't I look cute?" said Lorelai taking Luke's jacket and putting it on. "Thank you for the jacket.

The lake took Lorelai's breath away the second she saw it. It was half frozen over, and it was surrounded by trees.
"Wow, your aunt was right, this is gorgeous," Said Lorelai, leaning against the wooden fence that surrounded the lake.
"Yeah," said Luke looking up at the sky. "I've definitely had a lot of fun out here."
"Clean fun or DIRTY fun," asked Lorelai jokingly. As she said this she picked up a snowball and threw it in Luke's direction.
SPLAT
Luke was covered in icy snow, and Lorelai was laughing hysterically.
"Oh, you shouldn't have started this!" Said Luke gathering up some snow in his gloves. Before Lorelai could protest there was a snow ball flying her way and a war began.
"Hey be nice, I'm a girl!" said Lorelai, ducking behind a tree.
"Yeah I could tell by the way you are throwing," said Luke coming up beside her and pelting her with a snowball. Lorelai ran after him tackling him into a snow bank by the wooden fence.
They both lay there breathlessly staring at each other. Luke leaned over Lorelai and slowly lowered his face.
Lorelai looked up at him, inviting what was about to come, and then she looked up and saw something carved into the fence. "What's this? She said pointing to the fence post.
Luke pulled away embarrassingly and looked at the fence that read LD+JW=LOVE.
"Well I guess it was dirty fun you used to have down here," said Lorelai looking at the carving. "Hey we should head back, I bet your aunt needs some help in the kitchen."
"And what would you help her do? Said Luke slowly standing up and helping Lorelai to her feet.
"Not me silly, you can help her!" laughed Lorelai.
