Maybe Now: Chapter Six: Meeting a Friend
Disclaimer hasn't changed. Name's Lauren, last name's not Graham. So just don't sue. Susan I am glad you are enjoying this. Thank you everyone for the reviews. I have decided these are getting posted pretty quickly, so here's a challenge I want 50 reviews before chapter 7 will be posted.
Anyone want to be a sounding board, still looking for applicants.

Lane got ready to go. She had called Caesar earlier to find out when she had to work, but he had told her that Luke's was closed, Luke had left no other information, only that the diner should remain closed for the day. So she had the day off, and it was the perfect time to hang out with Rory. She decided she would call Luke later to find out what was going on. She grabbed her coat and then grabbed the keys to the band car. They had all decided that they would share the vehicle, just happened that today it was Lane's. Then she was off to see Rory.

Rory was just saying goodbye to Logan when her phone rang. Logan waved and saw himself out. Rory answered her phone without glancing at the caller ID. Thinking it was just Lane checking up.
'Hello?'
'Hello Rory, this is your grandmother.'
'Hello grandma.'
Her tone was exasperated. She did not want to be talking to her grandmother.
'I hear you are still not happy with me, I just wanted to know if you had yet to speak with your mother.'
'Yes, this morning.'
'Oh, well good...'
'Let me stop you right there, grandma. I'm not going to be your go between. You want to know how she is or what she's doing then you need to call her, you need to talk to her. I will not tell you about her. I'm sorry, but that's how this is going to be. I need to go I'm meeting a friend soon.'
'Will I see you Friday?'
'We have an agreement and I will not break stated previous agreement, so yes I will be at Friday night dinner.'
'Well alright, Rory.'
'Goodbye, Grandma.'
Rory hung up. She checked her watch. Quarter till noon, she grabbed her bag and headed out the door.

Luke and Lorelai end their kiss.
'Now I really missed that.'
'Oh yea?'
'Definitely.'
Lorelai looked at the clock on her mantle. 12:05.
'Don't you need to open the diner?'
'Not today.'
'No?'
'No. The townspeople can go one day without Luke's being opened.'
'Oh.'
'Yea Luke has something better to do.'
Lorelai smiled.
'Dirty.'
'Geez Lorelai.'
Lorelai just laughed.
'Oh you know you love it.'
'Don't you have to go to the inn?'
'What trying to get rid of me?'
'No, no not at all, but if you continue with those lewd comments I might change the answer.'
'Mr. Danes, would that be a threat?'
'Yes, ma'am.'
'Call me ma'am again and you will be alone pal.'
'Gotcha.'
'So we are free all day to do whatever we want?'
'Seems that way.'
'Well what should we do?'
'No clue.'
'Give me a few minutes alright, I'll be right back.'
'Lorelai...'
'What I'll be right back.'
He finally let her out of his grasp and she disappeared upstairs.

Rory was sitting at the table in the sun with her book, Angels and Demons. She, unlike Logan, was actually reading. There was a cup sitting on the small table in front of her. Someone approached the table shadowing her book. Rory looked up.
