Love notes and yellow daisies
Part 4
The next morning, Lorelai ran down to her porch but there was no note, not even a flower. A wave of disappointment washed her to Luke's for breakfast. Still thinking of her mystery man, she sat at a table, dreaming
"Morning" he said pouring her coffee, she didn't answer "Lorelai" he tried again
"Ha...?"
"What's going on with you?"
"Nothing..." she pouted and sipped her coffee
"What's with the face?"
"Nothing, get me my breakfast"
"Fine" he said and left
After she finished her breakfast which was served to her by lane she went to the counter to pay "I'm sorry" she said looking at him
"What for?"
"For not telling you what's bothering me..."
"It's ok... you don't have to..."
"I didn't get a note today..."
"Ahh..."
"I hope he didn't bale on me..."
"Uh ha..."
"Hey listen I need to the bathroom is it open upstairs?"
"Amm, no, it's locked" he said nervous "and I can go up there with you because I'm busy, sorry..."
"So give me a key..."
"I'm busy Lorelai..."
"Why are you like this? Do you have a girlfriend up there?"
He didn't answer and went to take orders but she chased him "you have a woman up there? Answer me Luke"
"What if I do...?"
"Oh my God... I can't believe this..." she ran to the door and left the diner
"Lorelai" he called after her but she didn't answer "shit" he said to him self
Two days went by, Lorelai didn't go to the diner, there were no notes and she was beginning to think she was never going to hear from her mystery man again. She came home that evening to find a note and a daisy lying on her porch, she smiled, she missed his words, she picked it up and went inside
"I want to tell you but I'm afraid, I want to make your sad blue eyes shine again and hold you forever close to my heart, I want to show you how much I love only you, I want to tell you but I can't"
The tears started coming down, she could feel him as if he was there kissing her tears away but she didn't want him. How sad was it that she got those beautiful notes from this romantic guy and all she wanted was to be in Luke's arms
She picked up the phone and dialed
"Luke's"
"Hey..."
"Lorelai"
"Did you really move on?"
"Lorelai"
"I think I deserve to know, I'm not mad, I just need to know"
He didn't answer
"So I take that as a yes"
"Lorelai, I..." he wanted so much to tell her but she cut him off and said
"I have to go" she hung up before he had chance to say anything
The days went by and the notes were a regular part of her day, all those lovely word about how he dreams about her every night, how he imagined what her touch would feel like, her lips, her hands...
It was amazing, it was like he made love to her with words
And now that Luke moved on she didn't have a choice but to move on as well. She waited for that one note that would ask her to meet him but it never came.
Rory came home that weekend and Lorelai was so happy. She felt she had to put Luke far from her mind and heart. He had moved on, she didn't blame him, she loved him for waiting for as long as he did.
"Mom" Rory said finely after a long silent "I missed you, I'm so sorry"
"Oh honey, I'm sorry too..." Lorelai replied and hugged her daughter as tight as she could
"I will never hurt you again... and I'm never leaving this house"
"Ohh, Rory... I love you but honey, you have to go back to Yale..."
"I know"
"But... you're here now and we're gonna make up for all those hours I've spent alone in this house"
"Sound like a plan"
"So do you wanna see the notes?"
"Ohh, yes... I wanna see what's up with your Casanova..."
"He's ok"
"Assuming it's a he..."
"Rory!"
"I'm kidding, just show me already"
After Rory read the notes and laughed at how corny they were she said "let's go to Luke's, I missed him, God I missed his coffee more..."
"I'm tired honey, why don't you go"
"Are you going to tell me what's been going on between you two?"
"No"
"Why not?"
"Because it's old news and... arr... forget it..."
"Mom, what is it?"
"I love him"
"At least you're admitting it... that's a start"
"Funny"
"So you love him and he loves you, that's great"
"Not so..."
"Why not?"
"Because he moved on"
"Were you guys together and broke up?"
"No we weren't together"
"So how did he move on exactly?"
"He has a girlfriend"
"Sorry mom"
"Yeah well, it's my fault..."
"How is that?"
"I asked him to wait for me, when everything was a mess between us"
"Oh, mom... why did you do that?"
"I couldn't just be with him Rory... not when we were in this huge fight"
"Mom, you have to tell him how you feel... girlfriend or no girlfriend he loves you, he always have... even a blind man could see"
"I can't... I won't do that to him"
"So what? You're just gonna do nothing?"
"I missed the train... there's nothing I can do"
"Aren't you going to fight for him, for his love? Why are you giving up?"
"Because... he made up his mind, he waited and I didn't make a move, he deserves to move on... he can not wait forever"
"I'm sorry mom... this is all my fault"
"No Rory, it's my fault, I should've reacted differently"
"I love you mom"
"Oh, honey, me too very much"
"So are you hungry?"
"Yes"
"Pizza?"
"Why not..."
