Still own nothing.

Chapter Two

As Luke turned the shower on full blast he caught sight of himself in the mirror. The grin on his face was priceless. He had pulled it off; he had fooled Lorelai Gilmore into thinking he had not given a thought about a Christmas gift for her. A laugh went along with that grin because that had been the only thing he had been thinking about for weeks. He'd found the perfect gift for them to share but he needed something personal just for her. Liz should have warned him that if he gave her jewelry early on it would be hard to top for Christmas. So he had thought about it and actually gone to the mall and well, he had picked something up that he still wasn't sure about.

Luke stepped into the shower and ducked his head under the stream of water. He reached for the soap and started to rub it between his hands when another hand took it away from him.

"Hey!"

"It sounded like you needed help. I could have sworn I heard a giggle coming from in here."

"Men do not giggle and I in particular have never giggled in my whole life."

"Okay, chuckle then. I heard you chuckle, a manly chuckle. Do men chuckle? Because woman certainly do not, I have never chuckled."

Lorelai moved the soap between her two hands making Luke think of some other things she did with those hands. And soon she was doing them…running their smooth soapiness down the back of his neck, down his back, giving a little extra attention a little lower. She ran her soapy hands between his legs and up his shaft. She didn't linger (he wouldn't have minded) but continued her movement up his chest. Luke reacted to her touch and she smiled as she noticed his reaction.

"Umm…."

Luke took the soap away from her and rubbed it between his two hands. He started at the base of her neck and gently rubbed downwards, reaching her butt and cupping it and pulling her close. She giggled as he then moved his hands to the softness of her stomach. From there he moved slowly up to her neck and then back down to first one breast than the other. Making sure to massage them gently and give them equal time…time enough for her nipples to grow hard. He smiled, she smiled back. Then his hands worked down between her legs, gently separating them and moving slowly and methodically. She was totally aroused and practically purring in his ear.

Luke pulled her close and kissed her. She was confidant of other things. All systems were go for both of them. Then he pushed her gently back until the water was pouring all over them.

"Wow, you sure know how to kill a moment." Lorelai whispered.

"Better the moment than the man."

Lorelai giggled as Luke turned the water off. "I have no intention of killing you. You're too much fun to have around."

"Oh, so I'm fun? I feel used." Luke got out of the shower and grabbed two towels, throwing one at her.

She caught it and wrapped it around her hair and started to rub it dry.

"Lorelai I think you are missing something."

Lorelai continued drying her hair…teasing him with the slow easy movements of her naked body.

Luke watched and watched and watched…he gulped a couple of time and tried to turn away but she was just too hard to resist. With one swift movement he had her pulled against him and his mouth was working its way down her neck. She moaned and they were off. Luke swooped her up into his arms and almost threw her on the bed. He entered her hard and fast and she welcomed the intrusion. Her nails dug into his back as he moved swiftly and deeply within her. Their breathing grew heavy and fast, when they could breathe at all. And when his final explosion came (because with Luke that's how it always felt to her) Lorelai gently bit his shoulder to keep from screaming. Then they looked into each others eyes and all Luke could say was, "You are going to be the death of me woman. I am much too old to be acting this way….and it is entirely your fault. You have turned a sensible man into a sex crazed, tree hauling, shopping idiot."

Lorelai coyly smiled and whispered, "Just remember this moment when you are shopping." And then she pushed him off and went into the bathroom and closed the door. Luke pulled the sheet over himself and closed his eyes with a sigh.

Lorelai soon reappeared hair dry, make up on, dressed and looking very prim and proper. Luke took one look and shook his head.

"What?"

"You….who would guess looking at you…"

"I repeat what?"

"That you are insatiable… and that you could possibly feel anything for a guy like me." Luke mumbled the second part but she heard his words.

Lorelai walked over to the bed and pulled him out. She put her arms around his neck and kissed him lightly on his nose and then his lips. Pulling away she spoke very slowly and very intensely. "I'm insatiable because you make me feel that way. You make me feel complete and loved and cared for. I'm the lucky one…because she feel anything at all for me."

Luke heard her words also, especially the being loved part. He did love her but he couldn't tell her just yet. That was part of the Christmas master plan. So instead, he kissed her back, patted her butt and playfully pushed her away – before he screwed up his surprise for her.

"Then I guess we are two lucky people. Two people finding a little happiness in this mess we call life."

"Ah, such a nice way to put it." Lorelai laughed and pulled on her coat. "I'm going now….in case you have important diner things to do…or shopping things…"

"I think the first thing might be to get dressed."

Lorelai laughed because there she was all dressed and ready to go and there he was with nothing on but a smile, a very loving smile.

"Bye babe. That's a picture I'll will carry with me all day."

Luke blushed and reached to pull on his shirt.

"No, don't spoil my parting image."

"Goodbye Lorelai. I'll call you later."

"Bye naked man. I had a good time."

Luke winked, "Yeah, me too. Hope to do it again real soon."

"Give me a call. Maybe we can arrange it." She pulled the door closed behind her, happy but feeling disappointed that neither could say the all important words. Maybe soon...or maybe never? What if....ignoring her doubts she pulled her gloves on and went out into the bright morning sun.
