Disclaimer: in my own little imaginary world I own the Gilmore girls and this wonderful creation called Luke Danes, but since this is real life, I do not own any of the characters I'm using for this crazy fiction. Which is very sad because who wouldn't want to be the owner of shirtless Luke.
Author's note 1: to In-Need-Of-Coffee, Gilmoregirl1979, Miss Lionesse and all the rest, thank you so much for the kind words and the feedback I got for changing the rating. I'm glad I did it and its all thanks to you. Hope you have fun reading the rest of the story. I have so much sex planed for these two but I'm afraid of being bent again so I'll try not to get too dirty.
Author's note 2: to ProFfeSseR don't worry, I have a lot more to write, I know, and trust me – when I end the story you will know. As long as you all read it, there's always what to write about these two without over doing of course.
New guy Luke
CHAPTER 19
The following day was somewhat hectic, I didn't have time to sit down and think about Luke and about how making love to him became my new addiction the coffee must feel neglected but to be honest my new addiction was a little healthier after all I needed some kind of exercise to make up for that unhealthy diet I was on
I was going through some bills when I heard the bells jingle, somehow I didn't need to look, I smelled him miles away.
That's how it was with him, I always knew it was him, maybe from the way he gently opened the door or the way he closed it behind him. I knew it was Luke.
"Hey there diner girl" he said from the other side of the counter
"Hey there mister backwards baseball cap" I smiled
"Whacha doing?" he asked and leaned in to kiss me
"Just bills and things" I said
"Almost done?"
"Yeah, almost"
"Your friend came by the shop today"
"Who?"
"Sookie"
"Oh… what did she want?"
"What could she possibly want with me?"
"Well if I had to put my money on it I'd say she would probably want a piece of that Luke stamina I've been bragging about"
"You know your jokes are less funny by the minute" he said walking around the counter
"No they're not… you like my jokes" I kissed him
"Not when they're dirty"
"Especially when they're dirty" I brushed my hand on his cheek "you need to shave"
"I like it this way and so do you"
"I do, no arguments there, especially when you do that thing with the…"
"I get the point…"
"Oh sweetie… am I embarrassing you?"
"Like you care…" he said and I kissed him again
"So what did Sookie want?"
"She wanted a new night stand, a manly one since Jackson is moving in"
"Oh… manly ha…" I giggled thinking about the talk she and I had about Jackson finally moving in
"Yeah…" he said
Then, we heard the bell made its sound again and this time I had to look up surprised and shocked at the same time.
I stood there staring at the person at the door unable to speak, I didn't know what to say or how to react and then Luke finally opened his mouth and said "Mrs. Gilmore, come in its cold out there" she closed the door and walked up to us "mother" I said
"Lorelai" she said formally
"So… I'm gonna go, let you two talk, I'll call you later… Mrs. Gilmore, nice to see you again"
"You too Luke"
I didn't say anything to Luke, he left and my mother looked at me trying to figure out what was going inside my head
"May I?" she gestured to the table
"Sure" I said and went to pull a chair down for her to sit
"How are you?" she asked
"Good, you?"
"Alright"
"What are you doing here mom?"
"I came to apologize"
"I don't want your apology" I was always stubborn
"Well I need to say it and then I'll leave…"
"You can leave now"
"I made a mistake, I know that ok… I know I was out of line and I apologize for that"
"Fine, now I need to close and go home to Rory"
"Rory is fine she's at home with her dad"
"What is Chris doing there?"
"He came to apologize as well"
"You two are like Elizabeth and Michael… inseparable"
"Is this another one of your jokes?"
"It's not a joke, it's like you like Chris more then you me… and I'm your daughter"
"Nonsense, I never liked him"
"Could've fooled me"
"I never liked him, I think it was never a secret but that doesn't mean I don't think he belongs with you"
"He doesn't belong with me, I don't love him"
"He loves you and Rory so much you must know that"
"I don't care, and I don't want to hear it… this is some weird way you chose to apologize…"
"Listen to me for a minute will you" she raised her voice
"What" I answered angry
"Rory called me last night, we had a very long conversation about you and Luke, and she said many things that made me realize I made a mistake. she said she'd never seen you happier, she said everyone in this town can see it and that I should accept it if I ever want to see you again, Rory is a very smart kid who loves her father and I thought that if she says such wonderful things about a man who's not her father then there has to be a reason" she took a deep breath "what I'm trying to say is that I want to get to know him, and I want to be a part of your life"
"You will never like him mom... he doesn't wear suits and he's not rich"
"I know that, but I realize I was wrong before, give me a chance, all I want is for you to be happy Lorelai, and if its with Luke then I should accept it"
"I don't know mom, I need to think about it… I know Luke and he's wouldn't want to go through all this again"
"He seemed fine just now"
"That's because he's nice, but he's still hurt, it only happened three days ago"
"I suppose it's only fair that you'd think about it. I'm going to wait for your call"
"Ok" I said and she turned to leave "mom wait" she looked at me "did you park here or at my place?"
"I came with Chris's Volvo"
"Oh… well let's go together"
"Alright"
The walk home was very quiet, I didn't say much and since my mother said what she came to say there was really not much left to say.
I was still angry, I was still hurt, and the thought of seeing Chris back at my place made me wish I closed earlier and went out with Luke.
Luke the thought of him made me smile, I'll call him as soon as Elizabeth and Michael will leave… they do act like Elizabeth Taylor and Michael Jackson… its like my mom is suddenly Chris's best friend…
We arrived at my place and found Rory and Chris in her room
"Hey guys" I said
"Lor, hi" he said
"Hey mom…"
"You child, will have to answer to mommy later"
"I know" she smiled
"So, Chris you should've called before you decided to come here"
"I know. I'm sorry… but I knew you wouldn't talk to me"
"Can you blame me?" I said and did my way to the kitchen
"No, I can't… I'm sorry Lor, I was out of line…" he followed me
"You damn well you were" I turned to face him
"But I meant it… I want to marry you" he said eagerly
"Stop right there Chris, I don't want to listen… you and my parents caused enough problems… I don't want to hear it" I countered
"But Lor…" he tried
"Chris! Just leave… I'm tired and I don't want to listen to your stupid proposals…" I suddenly became angry and raised my voice
"Fine… just know that he's not good enough for you… you belong with me… you and Rory…" he responded louder then me
"What? how dare you claim her after all this time? You are a nobody… you should be so lucky to even talk to her on the phone let alone see her"
"I'm her father" he pointed to himself
"You are everything but her father"
"How can you say that?"
"I have her entire life to back me up… you were never around… I did it all by myself you didn't do anything, and then one they you come rolling on your bike out of nowhere and you claim that we belong with you? You're crazy if you think I want you in my life and as a husband? There's only one man I will always be with… someone who's always there, he's great to me and to Rory… he's everything I never had"
"He can't give you what you need" he closed the gap between us and grabbed my arm
"And you know what I need?" I pushed him off
"I know you don't need him"
"That's enough" we heard Emily say "lets go Christopher"
"I won't leave until I get some sense into her, I will not let this man be around my daughter"
"I said that's enough Christopher" she raised her voice "you told me you are coming here to apologize when clearly you had other things to say, Lorelai knows what is best for her daughter and she certainly knows more then you"
"Emily…" he gave up at last
"You heard me, now let's go its late"
"Fine"
"Go wait in the car" she ordered and he left
"Thank you mom" I said after Chris left
"Nonsense, he was out of line and this time I had nothing to do with it. I will leave you now to your thoughts… tell Rory I said good night and I'll be waiting for your call"
"Good night mom, thank you for coming, really"
"Good night Lorelai"
After they drove away I went to Rory's room
"Hey babe"
"Mom hi, did they leave?"
"Yes they did, how are you feeling?"
"Ok…" she hesitated
"So how much did you hear?" I sat on the bed next to her
"All of it I think"
"Sorry about that"
"I can't believe him… suddenly he cares who you're with…"
"Don't worry about it"
"Where is Luke?"
"At his place" I smiled to the thought of him
"Oh…" Rory smiled back amused by my childish behavior
"Your grandma wants to give him a chance after a strange phone call she received last night"
"Did she say who it was?"
"Yes she did"
"You must be really angry at this person…" she looked down
"Not really angry but angry enough to make this person pay for it"
"What did you have in mind?"
"Well, I don't know yet but I'll think of something"
"I'm sorry mom… but I felt bad… everything was ok with you and Luke and I hate when you fight with grandma… I had to do something"
"She told me you said some nice things about Luke"
"Well, he did build me nice strong selves"
"Uh huh" I agreed smiling again
"And you're happy mom… happier then I've ever seen you before… I mean someone says Luke and you cant stop smiling"
"I know… and I am very happy"
"So everything is ok now…"
"Don't even try… I don't like it when you go behind my back you know that… and for that you must suffer a whole day of junk food and wonka"
"Jee mom, your punishments are so severe… I don't know how I could live after that"
"Well that's why I'm the cool mom. just don't do it again… just because it worked out this time doesn't mean it will be the same the next time ok…?"
"Ok"
"Good… now I'm gonna go take a shower and go to bed, I'll see you in the morning"
"Good night mom"
"Night kid"
I went upstairs still smiling, Luke has such an effect on me…and filled my bathtub. I undressed while the water ran and stepped in with the phone in my hand
"Hallo" I heard his sexy voice answer
"Is this who I think it is?"
"Who did you call?" he asked seriously
"The handsome guy who left my diner without kissing me good night earlier"
"Yes, this is who you think it is"
"Come over" I asked
"I can't"
"Why?"
"Because I have to get up early tomorrow"
"So do I, come over" I implored
"What did your mom want?"
"She wanted to apologize"
"That's good"
"Yeah… come over" I pleaded
"Lorelai"
"Are you alone?" I inquired
"What? Why you ask?"
"I don't know… is there a reason you're saying no to a naked woman in a hot tub"
"You're… uhh… well, maybe I… ok… I'll be right over"
"Thought so"
Ten minutes later I heard him knock on the bathroom door
"Hey handsome, did you lock the door?"
"Yeah…"
"Get in"
"You look tired" he kissed me
"I am… very tired"
he took his cloths of completely and stepped in behind me "come here" he said and I leaned my back against his chest "feel better?" he asked as he let his hands travel my arms up to my chest and neck
"I always feel better when you're around" I brought his hand to my chest and held it tight
"Right back at you" he kissed the top of my head
"Thank you for coming" I closed my eyes
"I wouldn't wanna be anywhere else"
Do you guys really think I should end this story? Just tell me what you think. I would love to go on, but you have the last word. I just don't want to over do it.
Thanks for reading and reviewing. Especially for reviewing because that's how I get my motivation.
Thank you ASP for the greatest character that ever walked my TV screen - Lucas Danes. Thank you for every word, every rant, every look and every smile. Thank you for making him grumpy, cranky, moody, sad, sexy and sweet. And finely, thank you for casting this amazingly beautiful and sexy man for this great role.
This line – its mine! And ASP's… but that's beside the point.
GO GO GET to review because your review is what keeps me going.
############ No sack of potatoes needed here.
Incase I didn't mention it before – I love Luke, Probably too much. I can't help it… he's too hot for me to handle.
