Chapter 5 - Surprises, Kirk and the Side Effects of beer.
After they had left her house Dean had driven Rory to a surprise destination.
"Where are we going?" asked Rory for the 50 millionth time
"It's a surprise. And if I tell you, it wont be a surprise anymore" said Dean, smiling cheekily.
They pulled in a small park. The trees were covered in fairy lights, and the stairs lit up the sky.
"Wow this place is….beautiful" exclaimed Rory, as Dean, being the gentleman he was opened her door for her.
"And this is not all"
Dean took her hand and led her through the trees. They walked in silence. Rory marvelled at the beauty of the place. Trees towered overhead, hiding the stairs. Then the trees opened up to reveal a clearing, lit by the moonlight. And in the middle of the clearing was a picnic. A blanket with a huge picnic basket to one side. Candles all around.
"Oh my god" said Rory shocked " You did all this for me?" She looked up at Dean.
"I'd do anything for you"
He kissed her softly on the lips. "Surprise"
Meanwhile….. The next morning.
'Mm this feels really nice' thought Lorelai as she snuggled in closer to Luke. To Luke! She sat bolt upright – mistake. Her head throbbed as the result of the amount of beer she'd drunk last night.
Luke lay peacefully beside her.
We kissed. I mean, me and Luke, we kissed. I can deal with that. That's ……cool. She rubbed her head. I am never drinking again.
She took a deep breath, slowly layback down. Her head resting in Luke's shoulder. 'Mm' She allowed herself to relax to being with Luke. I mean this could work. Couldn't it? Her mind started racing. What if we broke up? Her initial thought went to –no more coffee. But then she thought. What if we broke up, I'd be crushed.
Luke was a really great guy and Rory liked him. 'Oh my god Rory!"
For the 2nd time that morning she sat bolt upright. 'Rory! She wont know where I am!' This time Luke stirred in his sleep. He mumbled something and tried to pull her back in towards her. She resisted and stood up.
"What's up?" asked Luke sleepily.
"Rory!" said Lorelai, she pacing around the room, running her fingers through her hair.
"She doesn't know where I am"
"Ohh" said Luke recognition dawning on his face, he realised how distraught she was. He cringed as he slowly sat up. Grabbling at his head. He too was obviously feeling the effects of the beer.
"What time is it?" he asked, pulling himself up to stand. His hands still rubbing his head.
"Ah.." said Lorelai, looking at her watch.
At that moment they heard the bell ring as someone entered the Diner.
"Hello?" a familiar voice called out
"Kirk!" Luke and Lorelai both yelped. Lorelai ran to the door and started banging on it.
"Kirk! Help its Lorelai, were locked in the store room!" They head footsteps and then the door creaked open. Lorelai quickly grabbed the door, so it didn't shut. She couldn't stand the idea of being stuck in the storeroom with Kirk.
"Hi Lorelai. Hi Luke" said Kirk, peeping his head round the door.
"Hey" said Luke gruffly.
Lorelai had rushed out the door, grabbing her bag and was about to leave. When Luke called her name.
"Lorelai" She stoped and turned
"Luke, I have to go. Rory!"
" I know. But you might need these" he said, holding up her shoes and her coat.
"Oh yeah. Thanks" she said rushing over to him. She grabbed them and quickly put on her coat and shoes. And then she was out the door.
Luke turned around, and was face to face with Kirk.
"So do you think I could get some pancakes?" Kirk asked
Luke started blankly at him before pushing past and heading upstairs.
Oh what a night
I hope you liked it. I'm not sure if I'm completely happy with this chapter. But tell me what you think. More soon to come. So please read and review.
