DAYDREAMS

- Part 4 -

Luke woke up the next morning with Lorelai still sleeping by his side. Her head was resting on his chest and her left hand was on his stomach.

Luke's fingers traced lazy circles on her soft back, feeling her smooth skin underneath his fingertips.

He looked at the sleeping beauty besides him and his eyes moistened. How long did he wait for this to happen?

Luke had been in love with Lorelai for the past 5 years, maybe even longer. First he didn't admit it, telling everyone they were just friends. No one ever said anything about the chemistry between Lorelai and him, or the "thing" they had for each other at this time, although they all knew that there was something going on. But then the incident with Rachel happened.

Rachel was his first love. The only woman he'd been with in a serious way. He was madly in love with her during high school and after. But then she left. She left him and Stars Hollow, leaving him heartbroken.

And suddenly, years later, she came back, the same old Rachel, as beautiful as ever. She came back into his life telling him that she would stay this time – for good.

Luke had dreamed about this moment for a very long time, wishing for her to come back to him, but now that it really happened, he didn't want her back. He moved on and fell in love with another woman – Lorelai. He didn't have the guts to admit it to himself, but in his heart he knew it was true.

It wasn't long until Rachel realized that there was more between Luke and this crazy coffee lady than just simple friendship. But the weird thing was, Rachel actually liked Lorelai. Luke had caught them in his apartment, talking like they were friends.

Then the day came, the day when Rachel left – again! He remembered that day exactly.

He was just coming back from a town meeting.

Rachel was standing behind the counter

"Oh, you're back."

"Yeah, nothing much pressing at the town meeting." He replied while looking at her.

"Okay. Well, the bread shipment's all put away, and I sent Caesar home since it was pretty dead." She started to wipe off the counter, but pulled the napkin away.

"Good. Good Call"

"Thanks."

Rachel picked up her bags and walked out from behind the counter.

"Oh…So you're leaving huh?"

'This can't be happening … not again!' he thought .

"Yeah."

"Were you even gonna tell me?" he asked in disbelief.

"I was waiting for you to get back so I could say goodbye." She took a few steps forward.

"Yeah, you at least always do that. So go." He was looking down at his shoes now.

"Don't you even want to know why?"

"I know why."

"I don't think you do." She was a bit angry now.

"It's just like all the other times, Rachel. You're the anywhere but here girl, you're restless, you're bored, it is what it is."

"That's not it." Rachel said as she walked towards him.

"Then what is it? Is there another guy?" He asked, but not really wanting to know if he was right.

"No." Its not another guy, she thought.

"Then what?" Luke was annoyed.

"It's another girl."

Luke's eyes widened

"What? You telling me you're. . ."

Rachel almost laughed sarcastically at his statement

"The other girl isn't for me, Luke, it's for you." She said a bit louder than actually planned.

"Okay. Now that's crazy." Luke said and turned around

"Oh Yeah?"

"Yeah."

"No, it's not." Rachel mumbled shaking her head.

"You feel you need a different excuse this time to mix things up a little, fine. But you are not leaving because of me."

"I'm sure you tried Luke. But admit it, you're heart wasn't in it." She was calmer now.

"My heart was in it. I was here, I didn't leave. . . .I don't get this."

Luke really didn't know what she was saying.

"Luke."

"And what are you talking about, another girl. What other girl?"

Rachel looked up at him with an "oh you know damn well what girl I mean" look.

"Oh Rachel, no, you don't mean. . . She and I are just friends. I told you that a thousand times." Luke told her trying to sound serious

"No. You told it to me once. And you could barely get it out then."

She touched his arm looking him in the eyes.

"Okay, this is crazy. You've got it wrong here. It's not. . .She and I are. . .uh. . ."

He had to admit it, she was right.

"I'm gonna go. I'll miss you." She hugged him goodbye. "Stay in touch, 'kay?"

"Rachel, come on." He begged.

Rachel walked to the door. Then she stopped and turned around to look at Luke.

"So don't wait too long, okay."

"To what?" he gave her a curious look

"To tell her."

And with those words, Rachel left – forever.

He snapped out of his daydream.

Rachel was right. He loved Lorelai. He smiled. He didn't get a chance to tell her back then but they were together now, and that's all that mattered to him.

Lorelai meant everything to Luke. She was the one for him, the woman he wanted to marry, the woman he actually wanted to start a family with – soon. He loved her more than anything else in his entire life.

But he never told her. He never said those magical three words to her.

Luke wasn't good at explaining his feelings, he let his actions speak. He bought her a TV for his bed room, so that Lorelai was able to watch TV when he had to go to bed early because of early deliveries. Luke even built her her own shelf in the bathroom. He remembered the look on her face when she noticed these things. And the smile of her made it worth it. To see her happy made his heart melt.

Again he looked at the sleeping form of Lorelai besides him, caressing her face. She shifted slightly and slowly opened her eyes.

"Hey," she said in a still sleepy voice

"Hey. Sorry, I didn't want to wake you up. Go back to sleep."

He kissed her lightly on the lips.

"Hmm. I don't want to go back to sleep. How about breakfast and coffee? I'm starving." she grinned.

Luke smiled and kissed the top of her head.

"You're always starving. But I'll make you some breakfast, and yes, I'll even make you some coffee. I just wish I could get you away from that bad habit."

"Never, coffee is my drug, I'll never get rid of it,"

"I figured."

He moved the covers and wanted to get out of bed.

"Hey, where are you going" Lorelai pouted.

"You said something about breakfast remember?" Luke reminded her.

"But you're not going without a kiss."

She pulled him back and kissed him passionately.

Luke kissed her back with everything he had. He deepened the kiss letting his tongue slip into her mouth. Their tongues danced around each other and a soft moan escaped from him.

Lorelai grabbed him, pulling him down on the matress, her hands running up and down his back finally resting on his gorgeous butt.

"Lorelai…"

"Sorry." She pulled away blushing. "I didn't want to distract you." she grinned.

Luke got up, running his hands nervously through his hair.

"Uh, what was I going to do? Oh yeah, breakfast."

He glanced down at Lorelai, who lay naked beneath the covers. The covers were barely
covering Lorelai. Covering enough of her to qualify as being 'decent', but not enough to keep Luke from wanting to climb back into bed with her.

"I'd better go," he said trying not to look at her.

Lorelai laughed. "Blueberry pancakes please."

"Ok… sure, I'll call you when they are done, 'kay?"

"Thanks, Luke."

Luke made his way down the stairs while Lorelai snuggled down under the covers.
