I forgot to mention in the previous chapter but, I DON'T OWN GILMORE GIRLS!
Thank You to every one who reviewed! It was nice to hear so much positive feedback, keep it coming. (Dirty)In answer to LL Lover's question, I'm female and I'm 14 years old.
Here is the next chapter:
After helping Lorelai out of the car he lead her into the cinema. She had a smile plastered on her face; she enjoyed feeling like she was on a date with Luke. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if… She was shocked out of her thoughts as Luke left her side. He walked over to a blonde woman standing by the entrance of the cinema. Lorelai watched Luke kiss the girl she now guessed was Ellie. She felt jealous again, but once again she ignored it.
"Lorelai, this is Ellie." Luke introduced them.
"Nice to meet you, Ellie." Lorelai forced a smile as she shook Ellie's hand.
"You too, Luke has mentioned you before," Ellie was being polite, even though she hated the look Luke had in his eyes whenever he mentioned Lorelai.
"Well, it's nice to be mentioned." Lorelai told her.
"Lorelai," Nick called as he made his way over to the group that were standing just inside the cinema.
Lorelai quickly kissed him on the cheek and then turned to Ellie and Luke.
"Guys this is Nick. Nick this is Luke, who you met the other day and his …" She paused before continuing "girlfriend Ellie."
Luke and Ellie greeted Nick.
They got the tickets and arranged to meet outside their screen in 10 minutes, giving everyone time to go to the toilet and buy snacks for the film.
"Got enough to eat?" Luke asked Lorelai as she and Nick joined him and Nicole in their seats.
"No, they ran out of corn dogs." Lorelai pouted, Luke couldn't help but laugh.
The movie was about half way through when Nicks cell phone went off.
"I have to take this, sorry." Nick apologised and walked out of the cinema.
Lorelai sighed and turned back to the movie.
They had decided to go and see the new horror film. All through the movie she had been hiding her eyes from the horrible scenes by burying her head in Nicks chest.
Luke noticed that she was scared and out his arm around her so she could hide her face again, but this time in his chest. She did so almost immediately.
Ellie was not scared easily so she had not needed to avert her eyes from the screen like Lorelai. Luke was glad that she felt comfortable enough to do this.
He absentmindedly played with her hair. This didn't go unnoticed by either of the women but no one mentioned it. When Luke realised what he was doing he quickly pulled his hand away, and waited for the scary scene to finish.
Lorelai was listening to the film and heard that the scene she had not wanted to see was over but didn't want to pull away.
"Lorelai," She felt Luke's warm breath against her ear and it sent shivers down her spine. "It's finished."
She reluctantly pulled back and smiled nervously at him. "Sorry," She was blushing but she thanked God that it was so dark in the cinema that he didn't notice. She turned back to the movie, a couple of minutes later Nick returned.
He placed his arm around Lorelai and she snuggled into his embrace.
After The Movie Has Finished
"So, do you two want to come back to the diner, you know have some tea or…" Luke was cut off
"Coffee! Yes please!" Lorelai jumped up and down like a little kid.
"Okay, we'll see you there." Luke walked off with Ellie, and Lorelai followed Nick to his car.
Nick and Lorelai didn't speak on the way home. She wanted to say something but didn't know what she could say. Her thoughts kept wondering back to how it felt to be wrapped up in Luke's arms, again, in the dark cinema.
Luke drove on his own back to the diner, as Ellie had brought her own car. He thought about Lorelai the whole way home, he thought about everything, especially about when he had told her that the worst part of the movie was over. Why did I tell her? She would have moved if she had wanted to. Maybe she didn't know it had finished. But… What if she knew but wanted me to keep my arm around her. Maybe… She is going out with someone else. And so are you I might add. But… No! No what ifs! It's not going to happen. He felt like a there was a game of tug-of-war taking place in his head. With both teams reading different things into the nights events. But the night isn't over yet. He sighed and pulled up next to the diner.
As he got out of the car he saw Nick pull into the parking spot behind his truck. Lorelai was staring out of the window; she seemed to be deep in thought. Luke saw Nick start talking to her; he decided that he should unlock the diner.
Ellie walked in moments before Lorelai and Nick. Luke gave everyone their beverages and they sat down at one of the tables by the window.
"So Ellie, who do you think is The Worlds Best Loved Cat?"
"Lorelai…" Luke groaned.
"Well, I found out that there was a show and that Garfield did win…"
"How did you find that out?"
"Kirk." She replied simply. "Anyway, there was a show and Garfield won, but I'm now trying to find out Stars Hollow's Best Loved Cat!"
"You must have a very boring life if that's what you do in your spare time." Luke commented, but he couldn't hold back his smile.
They both thought the same thing. The thought that popped up in both their heads over the night on more than one occasion. Is this what it would be like? They continued smiling at each other until they heard Nick's phone.
"Not again!" Lorelai sighed, but he took the call anyway.
Ellie, Luke and Lorelai sat in silence for a minute until Lorelai ran behind the counter and into the storeroom.
"Lorelai? What are you doing now?"
She remerged carrying an old radio; she set it down on the counter and started to play with the buttons.
"Lorelai?" Luke asked her again. He walked up to the radio and hit a button. "ever think about turning it on?"
"Could help, huh?" She played around with the radio for a little bit longer until she heard a familiar tune playing.
She walked away from the counter and started dancing around the diner, singing as loud as possible:
Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think that the physical things
Define what's within
And I've been there before
But that life's a bore
So full of the superficial
Some people want it all
But I don't want nothing at all
If it ain't you baby
If I ain't got you baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain't got you, Yeah
The reason she loved this song so much was because it was true. She wanted someone that made her feel like that. Someone to make her feelspecial, safe, loved.Like Luke does. She thought. That was when she realised it.
She loved Luke!
