"Ok, well, um enlighten me. Why would you lie about that?" Lorelai asked, confused.

He didn't answer her question. "I never did tell you why Rachel left, did I?"

"No." Lorelai said. "Max interrupted and you two got into a little back and forth match." Lorelai said pointedly. "But, I think that you were gonna tell me then. Are you gonna tell me now."

"Yeah. She, um, left because she, well, um, she said that my heart wasn't in it. She said that I…that my heart was with someone else." He answered.

"Ok, well was it. And if so, who?" Lorelai pried.

"Yes, she was right. It was um, you…you don't know her." Luke chickened out.

Lorelai was slightly disappointed at his answer and was slightly envious at the woman. But she snapped back fast. Lorelai knew that she was getting really close to Luke on this trip and her feelings for him that she always hid behind denial were finally starting to surface. "Oh…ok. Well, Luke has is secretly in love. Ooh this is good. What is the name of this mystery woman?" Lorelai asked.

"Um," He thought. He had to make this a believable story. "Well, I'm not in love with her." At least he didn't think so. "I just, like her. Her name is, um, Lor…Lor-etta. We met at, um, a grocery store and we talked and then she left…and then…um…she…" He thought.

Lorelai wasn't believing his story. "Luke, if this woman is a stripper or something, I completely understand." She joked.

"She's not a stripper, it's just complicated." He shot.

"Ok, well, why is it complicated?" Lorelai said and then moved over to a bench, where they could get out of the middle of the walkway. Luke followed.

"She probably doesn't want to be with me." He really didn't want to talk about this, because, well, it was about her. Lorelai didn't want to talk about this either, because she was jealous, and she was actually admitting it to herself.

Lorelai smiled. "I find that hard to believe."

Luke smiled, also. Her comment kind of made him brave. So he decided to ease himself into telling her. "Yeah, she um, is a really good friend."

"Oh really, that's always a good start." Lorelai commented.

"Yeah. She has a kid. A freshman." He figured that it wasn't a lie. Because Rory was a freshman, just not in high school, but a college freshman.

"Ah, she married? Cause that would be a huge problem." She pointed out. Although she would be really relieved if this woman was married. Unless…

"No, she um…" How should I word this? "She…broke it off…with the…dad. Cause, my personal opinion, he was an ass."

"I'm sure he was. Is she…pretty."

"Beautiful. She's got wavy, brunette hair. Blue eyes. I like girls with pretty eyes." Lorelai smiled at his comment. "Skinny, but not twig. I don't know how she keeps that figure, cause she eats a LOT."

Lorelai was starting to understand what he was aiming at. "Is she completely obsessed with coffee, because if so, I know this lady very, very well?"

"Yes. I think that you know her, now that I think of it." Luke and Lorelai both smiled.

"Hey, Luke, now that I think of it. I know someone that I want to be with." Lorelai said. "You might not know him, though."

"Oh yeah?"

"Yeah. And trust me, he is hot?" Lorelai giggled a little bit. "I also happen to be a sucker for eyes, and this guy has beautiful eyes. And he has a nice shape to his body. Oh, did I mention his very odd, but sexy wardrobe. Flannel and backwards baseball cap." Luke smiled at her. Lorelai giggled a little. "And he has a great smile."

"Oh really? Does he also make the best coffee in the world?" Luke asked.

"Yes."

"Then I think that I might know the guy."

They both sat on the bench, smiling at each other. Luke began moving towards Luke, as the same time that Lorelai started moving towards Luke. They stopped about 90 percent of the way there, stared into each others eyes, then went the rest of the 10 percent and met in a soft kiss. The kiss ended quickly, but it still had a lot of meaning to it. They stared into each other's eyes again, which lead to another passion filled kiss. This one was a lot more heated though. Tongues were involved.

"Mom, Luke!" Rory yelled.

Ok, sorry. I really didn't mean this to be a cliffhanger and so short, but it is late. And I've been chatting on AIM all night. And I also was doin something weird with my livejournal. So read review. I'll update soon.
