CHAPTER ONE - VERMIN FOR COFFEE
--- Luke's diner ---
She couldn't believe how she was feeling. It was just Luke, it wasn't like she cared, yet while drinking her third cup of coffee since she arrived this morning, she couldn't help but feel somewhat jealous by the way he was talking to that women. It wasn't the usual way he would talk to someone, more of the way he would talk to her, she even caught him smiling a few times. Luke never smiled.
Rory: "Mum? You even listening to me", she butted into Lorelai's thoughts.
Lorelai: "Huh? oh yeah, sure sweetie", Lorelai answered, without taking her eyes off Luke.
Rory: "No your not", Rory began. "You could at least look like your interested instead of staring at Luke and that women he is talking to". Rory stopped. "Do we know her?" She questioned.
Lorelai: "No I don't think so". She still had her eyes on her, trying to figure out what Luke saw in her, if he saw anything at all.
Taylor: "No one knows who she is", he said as he turned from his table and looked at Lorelai. "She came in this morning by bus, and as soon as she arrived she went straight here and hasn't leaved this spot since".
Lorelai: "How long ago was that?" She questioned.
Taylor: "Since seven this morning".
Rory: "Early". Taylor nodded and turned back around, sipping his coffee trying to make out what Luke and this Women were saying.
Rory: "Her and Luke look pretty friendly", she went on to say.
Lorelai: "Too friendly" Lorelai replied bitterly.
Kirk: "Wish they would stop being so friendly so I could get a refill of coffee. I have been asking for it for an hour", Kirk interrupted, from the table across from the booth that they were sitting at. It seemed as if everyone wanted to know what was going on, but since when was that unusual.
Lorelai: "You will have to wait in line, bucko. I have been waiting just as long".
Kirk: "You have not. I see there is still coffee in your cup".
Lorelai: "No there isn't", as she finished the last of it. Rory smiled. "Luke", she called from her table.
Luke: "Yeah more coffee, gotcha", he screamed back, as he went back to talking to the mystery women.
Lorelai: "Today", Lorelai began impatiently. After waiting about a second she started to tap her fingers on the table.
Luke: "Just be one sec", he told the women. Picking up the jug of coffee, he walked over to Lorelai's table. "Can't u wait?" He questioned, as he refilled her cup.
Lorelai: "Do you even need me to answer that question" Luke looked at Rory.
Rory: "She has a point", Rory said smiling cheekily, as Luke just rolled his eyes.
Luke: "There is your coffee now can I get some peace?"
Lorelai: "Yes, I just wanted my coffee, now we can all sit in silence and hear the little to the pitter patter of the rats running around this dinner.
Luke: "You implying that I have rats?"
Lorelai: "Oh no, I didn't mean that. Quiet now, have coffee" Slowly she began sipping her new cup of coffee.
Luke: "Whatever". He placed the coffee pot down on their table and walked back over to the counter.
Lorelai: "Thankyou", she screamed over towards him. Luke just nodded.
Kirk: "Well where is my coffee? You serve Lorelai before me and I have been waiting twice as long as she has".
Lorelai: "Your just not as pretty as me", Lorelai commented, flipping her hair back.
Rory: "And you didn't mention that Luke has rats", Rory laughed.
Taylor: "Luke has rats?" He overheard turning around.
Rory: "Big ones", she nodded. Taylor got up and walked over to Luke.
Taylor: "This is an outrage. You have venom running around this diner. It's unsanitary. I have been telling you for over a year now to get this placed sprayed, but no, and now you bring the rats in. I am talking to the council about this".
Luke: "You do that". With that Taylor angry left the Diner. Luke glared and Lorelai and she just quietly placed her fingers to her lips and drank some more coffee.
Kirk: "So now there is favourites", he started as he went up to Luke.
Luke: "Kirk, get out".
Kirk: "What? This is a diner, you are suppose to serve the customer".
Luke: "You are no longer my customer. You came, you ate, now leave".
Kirk: "I just wanted some more coffee. You promise free refills. I want my refill".
Luke: "I said out. Now move it or I will throw you out".
Kirk: "You see the way he treats me", he said looking at everyone around him, only no one really took much notice, instead they all continued eating or drinking what was laid out before them. "Fine I'll go".
Luke: "Good".
