The song ended, but there positioning sure didn't. It's like they were stuck in each others arms. Luckily another slow song followed or else they would have looked, stupid...suspicious...anything but normal. Lorelai felt so comfortable, she didn't want to end the dance. She had to take advantage of Luke dancing. Come on, how often does that come along? And Luke certainly didn't want to end it. Even if it was dancing, it was dancing with Lorelai. They made mutual eye contact that both screamed, 'again?' This time though, Luke held her closer. Lorelai's head rested on his shoulder. She smelled the cologne on his neck. She brought her nose very close to it, causing him to feel ticklish. He almost jumped. Almost. She laughed softly at the stubble on his cheek slightly brushing against her cheek. They danced the whole time, not once looking at each other. Part of Lorelai was scared to see his face. She was scared to see if he looked happy. She knew he was. She was too, but scared. All these sudden feelings for Luke started shoving themselves in her face. She had such strong feelings, too. Not, 'hey it'd be cool if we went out,' kind of feelings. More of a, 'I want this. I want this a lot,' kind of feeling, and they all came so randomly. Since when has she seen Luke in this new light? It scared her. The possibility of loosing him as a friend? It scared her. 'What are these feelings? Does he feel any of them, too?' The song ended, they broke apart simultaneously. She was nervous as hell and just wanted to go home to sleep and not think about whether or not Luke felt it too.

"It's getting late." She hinted.

"I can walk you home..." He offered nervously.

She smiled sweetly at him. 'He's such a great guy.' "Sure." She said, nodding her head.

They said their goodbyes and started walking back towards Lorelai's. Not sure just when...but sometime Lorelai linker her arm through his. They looked like a couple, they acted like a couple, but they weren't, were they? They talked small talk on their way back until they reached her front door. 'Gosh this feels weird...now what? Bye, thanks for a fun time, great food and a good dance? Oh yeah and thanks for making my legs go weak and turning me into this puppy loving 8th grade girl?'

"So this was fun..." He started, trying to break the silence.

"It was." She smiled.

There was an extremely awkward silence, they both just stood there, looking at each others eyes. 'Perfect time...' he thought.

Luke took advantage of their 'moment.' He leaned in very slowly, just to make sure she didn't back away and very clearly, she did not. She leaned in further, and quicker. Anxious you could say. Their lips finally touched. It was a very soft, slow kiss. They were holding each other loosely. Luke had his hands on her waist hanging, and she gripped her hands around his arms. It lasted long, but not long enough. For either of them. Luke pulled away first, more or less, and stared her straight in the eye. It was a mutual contact and he leaned in and kissed her again, quick but sweet and pulled away again. She started to stare down at her feet, she spoke quietly just above a whisper.

"So, this was a date." She said more as a statement than a question.

"I guess." It was all he could mumble out. "If you wanted it to be." He added quickly.

"I did." The words came out quicker than expected. "I didn't know if you did."

"Why wouldn't I have?"

"I don't know Luke. You asked me but I didn't know if it was as friends, and then we danced. And I felt something...uhm...yeah something. I'm not sure what but...something...different. Something good. I just didn't think you felt the same, and now I feel so stupid for just rambling about how I have feelings for you, and you probably think I'm a complete idiot so I'm going to stop now."

He smiled. He had too. "I've always felt something for you." Did he really just say?

She smiled; 100 lbs. had just been removed from her shoulders. "Good."

She stared at the door, and turned back to him. "Want to come in for a cup of coffee?"

"When do I ever drink coffee?"

"Good point. Hmm...do you want to come in and watch me drink a cup of coffee?"

"Or 8 cups of coffee...sounds thrilling."

"We'll talk."

"Sure."

She opened the door and walked in first, holding the door open for him. He walked in and she just stood their smiling at him, although his back was to her. 'This is what I want. I'll take my chances.'
