Later that afternoon, Jason got out of a marathon teleconference with a client and decided to check his voicemail. He saw that he had a message from Lorelai and smiled.
"Hi Jason, it's me again. Since you might be in another marathon meeting of boredom I just wanted to fill you in on the plans tonight in case we keep missing each other. We're still on for dinner tonight but we have a change in venue. Instead of me coming to Hartford, can you come to Stars Hollow at 7? I'd like us to meet at Luke's so you can try his coffee and the best burger in the state of Connecticut. And then we can go to the preview of the new Mary Kate and Ashley movie since I know you've been dying to see it. Oh and by the way, Luke is coming with us on our date. Call me and I'll explain, bye!"
Jason was surprised to say the least. Luke was coming on their date? Was he a fan of the Olsen twins? Or did Lorelai have something kinky in mind by bringing another guy on their date? He immediately dialed her number.
"Hey Jason." She answered.
"Lorelai, hi. I just got your message and there were two things I wasn't quite clear on. First of all, you are the one with the strange fascination with the Olsen Twins, not me. And secondly, I thought I heard that you wanted to bring Duke on our date."
"Not, Duke. Luke."
"Right, Luke. I understand if you want us to eat at the diner, that's fine. But why on earth are you bringing him on our date? Is he a closet Olsen Twins fan?"
"First of all, they now want to be called Mary Kate and Ashley, not the Olsen Twins. And the reason Luke is coming with us is I forgot I made plans with him tonight when I agreed to have dinner with you. He's going through a divorce and I've been trying to cheer him up. So I thought he might want to come out and take in a movie to get his mind off things."
"That's so thoughtful of you Lorelai, but I was kind of hoping to spend some time alone with you tonight."
"Oh come on Jason, it'll be fun. It's just one night. It's not like I'm planning to make a regular thing of this. And you and Luke can finally meet."
"I didn't realize that Luke was such a good friend of yours. I thought he was just the burly coffee guy who drives his pickup truck too slow. And what if he wants to beat me up for that tailgating thing?"
"Jason, don't worry. I'll protect you if Luke gets aggressive." She teased. "Hey, I realize that I'm springing this on you, but just do this for me, okay? If you do, you'll get a nice reward."
Jason sighed. "Does that mean that you'll be coming home with me after the movie?"
"Maybe." Lorelai said suggestively.
"Okay, Luke can come with us to the movie. But when the Olsens have a sequel, I get to bring Crystal with us."
"Oh Jason, you're the best. But you're kidding about Crystal, right?"
----------------------------------------------
During the mid-afternoon lull at the diner the phone rang. "Luke's."
"Hey, it's me."
"Lorelai, what's up?"
"I just spoke with Jason and he's cool with everything. He's coming to the diner for dinner around seven, so you guys can finally meet. Then when we're done, we're gonna go out to the movies."
"So Jason's okay with this? Are you sure?"
"He's fine. Don't worry, Luke. And don't you want to know what we're seeing?"
"As long as it's not Kramer vs. Kramer."
"Dude, you need to update your movie references. Anyway, we're seeing "New York Minute" starring the richest teens in the world, Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen!"
"Never heard of them."
"You've never heard of the Olsen twins?"
"Is that like the Barbie twins?"
"Well since you're not a twelve year old girl, I'll give you the scoop. Back in the day of TGIF on ABC, they played the painfully precocious Michelle Tanner on "Full House." Since then they have starred in many straight to video classics such as "When in Rome" and now sell everything from clothes to makeup at Wal-mart. They're self-made multi-millionaires and they're not even 18. But now every dirty old man is waiting for June 13th when they become legal. Did you know that there are over 3,000 countdown websites for the big day?"
"Lorelai, you frighten me. So you want to drag me to this movie so you can call me a dirty old man?"
"Well, you want to get your mind of your problems, don't you? There's nothing like a little Olsen magic to do that for you."
"I guess."
"Come on, it'll be fun. This will be an evening to remember! See ya around seven, Luke."
"See ya."
Luke hung up the phone and sighed. It was going to be an evening to remember all right.
------------------------------------
A/N: I'm not obsessed with the Olsens but I read an article in the NY Post how many hipsters are obsessed with the twins and that's where I got my info. And Lorelai is somewhat of a hipster, I could see her being into them. Plus CuteDean is in the movie so I'll have to put in a joke about that. Next up, the date!
