Lorelai was waken suddenly the next morning by a ringing telephone. She opened an eye and remembered that her and Luke had moved out to the living room couch after the previews for the feature presentation. She rolled over and came to a stop when her body hit the floor. She wrapped the blanket around her body to keep from freezing to death and crawled to the telephone that was ringing off the hook. Rubbing at the pain in her hip in the process. She was beginning to regret not turning on the answering machine. She finally reached the phone and was able to answer it.
"Hello?" She moaned, slowly climbing into the desk chair.
"Oh, thank god your home! For a moment there, I thought you had gotten stuck someplace like that dirty diner." Emily's voice came from the other end of the line.
At the mention of the diner she turned her gaze to a surprisingly still sleeping Luke. A wide grin spread across her face. "Yes, mom, I'm fine."
"That's good news. Every place in the city has been snowed in. Luckily, the snow plows were able to depart and save the pour souls. They should be out your way soon, hopefully."
"That's great. Um…is that all you were calling for?"
"Pretty much, why?"
"Well, I need to make a few other phone calls to clear this mess up. Call you later?"
"Okay, I'll talk to you later."
"Bye, mom." Lorelai hung up the phone and carried the cordless into Rory's room and closed the door. She didn't want to take the chance of waking up Luke. She quickly dialed her number at Yale.
She rolled over in bed, blindly reaching for the phone on the bedside table. "I hate you." Rory answered grumpily.
"I just wanted to make sure you were all right." Lorelai excused, digging through Rory's drawer.
"Well, I'm fine. Now goodnight." She was about to hang up the phone.
"Wait! I want to tell you about what happened last night." After much searching she finally found a night gown of that would fit her.
Lorelai's comment had her intrigued. "Go on."
"Well, Luke came over last night…" She told her about the events leading up to the climax.
"And?" Rory sat up in bed.
"We kissed!" Lorelai broke the news in a high-pitched voice. Big smiles.
"What!" Rory screamed so loud she had to check to see if she hadn't waken Paris. She just mumbled something incoherently and rolled over to her other side.
"Well, we eventually did a lot more then that…" She tangled herself in the Pajamas as she attempted to dress while holding the phone to her ear.
"Stop. I don't need the gory details."
She managed to dress. "Like I've ever shared that part of my life with you."
"Just a warning. Now that you've gotten that out of your system, can I go back to bed?"
"I was expecting you to be so ecstatic that you wouldn't be able to." She pouted. "I guess so."
"Thank you and good night." She went to hang up the phone, again.
Lorelai managed a "Love ya hon" before, she too, hung up. She tip-toed out the doorway carrying the sheet with her.
"Well, Good Morning Sunshine." Luke greeted her as she walked into the living room. He had put his boxers back on and was sitting up on the couch. She moved to squeeze underneath the arm that was hanging over the back of the couch.
A/n: I know it's short and I apologize...I've kinda hit a wall. I'll keep thinkin'!
