CHAPTER 2

That Monday morning Luke's diner buzzed with customers; chatting, buying coffee, the usual. Kirk sat at the counter, a large plate of eggs in front of him.

"Luke?" Kirk moaned, picking at his breakfast.

"What is it, Kirk?" Luke grunted, pouring a mug of coffee for the customer that sat next to Kirk.

"Do you have a limit on salt and pepper?" Kirk asked the diner owner.

"Why?"

"It's just that today I woke up and decided I was in an egg-y mood. So where's the better place to go for eggs then...?"

"Right here?" Luke supplied.

"Right here," Kirk agreed. "Anyway, now that I'm here, with the big plate of eggs in front of me, I'm in a salty and pepper-y mood. Now I ask you, is there a limit on salt and pepper?"

"No, but there is a limit on how many brain piercing stories are allowed in here," Luke replied.

Kirk remained silent for a few seconds before saying, "But no limit on salt and pepper, right?"

At that moment Lorelai entered the diner, causing the bell above the door to go off. Rory followed her and got the two of them a table while Lorelai went up to the counter, standing in between Kirk and the man Luke had been pouring coffee for.

"Hey," Luke greeted her casually.

"Hey," Lorelai returned the greeting. "Listen, I needed to talk to you about that thing. You got a sec?"

"Oh, sure," Luke sat his coffee pot down. "Come on." He led her up towards his apartment.

"What was that all about?" the man next to Kirk asked.

"Oh, Luke, had to go get freaky with his girlfriend," Kirk answered.

"Oh!" the man nodded.

Luke shut the door of the upstairs apartment as Lorelai entered behind him. They stood looking into each other's eyes for a few seconds, neither one of them saying anything. Finally, not breaking the silence, the grabbed hold of each other and locked lips tightly in a kiss.

"Why do we have to keep sneaking?" Luke asked, his voice muffled through the kiss. "Practically the whole town knows about us."

"It makes us look like sluts," Lorelai replied, running her fingers through his hair. "And I love it."

Finally stopping the kiss, Luke just held Lorelai close to him for a moment. "Good morning," he said.

"Good morning," Lorelai smiled mischievously. "We really need to learn to say that before the passionate kiss thing."

"Gotcha." Luke headed over to the table, picking up a newspaper. "There's a double feature playing at the theatre. I thought we could..."

"Go on a date?" Lorelai supplied. Luke only nodded. "Wow. You came so close to saying date that time. I'm really proud."

Rosa ran into the diner excited, followed by Jess and Rory, who both had to go to work soon. The trio sat at a three seater table, waiting on Luke to come by and spread his usual sarcastic sunshine on them.

"It's cold outside," Rory noted. "November weather is wild."

"No kidding," Jess sighed then glanced around for his uncle. "Now where's Luke?"

"I think he's busy trying to perfect his grunting," Rosa said, getting her a look of confusion from the adults that sat at the table with her. "What? I heard Aunt Lorelai say it."

Rory smiled amused at the girl while Jess simply shook his head.

At that moment, Luke and Lorelai came down, causing Rory and Jess to glance over at them.

"Speak of the devil," Jess muttered.

"Shush," Rory hushed him gently.

"Hey." Lorelai pulled up a seat at the table that they sat at. "When did you get here?"

"Couple minutes ago," Rory replied. "So where were you guys?" she asked the question casually.

"We..." Luke trailed off.

"Had to take care of a thing," Lorelai quickly added.

"So you gonna stop sneaking around any time soon?" Jess asked directly.

"Not likely," Luke replied.

"Too much fun," said Lorelai.

"Apparently," Rory nodded.

"You're all stoned," was all Jess said.

Rosa looked around at the four of them in confusion. "Huh? Sneaking around? What are they doing, anyway?"

"I think it's time for school," Jess said immediately.

"Yes, school, definitely," Rory agreed as quickly as Jess. "Come on, Rosa. I can drop you off."

"Oh," Rosa realized it then smiled. "They're doing 'that'."

Lorelai smiled at her while Luke shook his head, just the way Jess had earlier.
