Thank you for all the reviews, they are my favourite part of writing fan fiction. Tell me what you like and what you would like to see and I'll try and add it into the story. I have another 7 or so chapters ready waiting and the more reviews I get, the quicker I'll post.
"Hey Kirk!" Lorelai greeted cheerfully as she entered the diner later that afternoon.
"Congratulations Lorelai" He replied, "I just want to take this opportunity to offer myself"
"When don't you take that opportunity?"
"As you know I have many skills available so if you need anything for the wedding I am ready and willing for you"
"I'll get back to you on that" Lorelai moved past Kirk and up to the front counter. She greeted Luke with a quick kiss.
"What was that about?" He asked, automatically pouring her some coffee.
"Just Kirk telling me he was ready and willing"
"Of course" Lorelai picked up the mug and headed for the staircase. "Where you going?" Luke asked as he followed her.
"To go pack your stuff up, I fulfilled number five as per your request, number six is packing"
"But you want to pack up my things?"
"You're working, I'm not. Look it'll be easy, all I'm going to be doing is chucking things into boxes"
"It's the chucking that's bothering me"
"Don't worry, I'll be careful"
"And what about the heavier things?"
"Like what?"
"The bed"
"We're not taking your bed; I have a perfectly good bed."
"But when the boxes are full they'll be heavy. Wait five minutes and I'll help you"
"You sure?"
"Lane and Caesar can manage"
"Okay" Lorelai waited patiently with her coffee. It was a chance to just watch Luke work. Watch her fiancé work. She knew things were right this time. With Max, everything was too forced. From the daisies to the wedding cake. She knew she didn't love him and was now thanking god that she had called off the wedding. If she had gotten married to Max, then she would have never gotten together with Luke and right now that was a scary prospect. For the first time in her life she could imagine spending the rest of her life with a man. She could imagine spending the rest of her life with Luke. She smiled wildly as she watching him move from table to table. Pouring coffee and taking his last lot of orders before helping her pack his things up. He placed his notepad on the worktop and headed towards her. He put down her cup and lead her upstairs, keeping his hand firmly on the small of her back.
"So where do you want to start?" She asked, as they surveyed the room.
"Lets start with essentials, I'll start with the kitchen and you start with the bathroom. That way if we don't finish tonight at least we can eat and I can brush my teeth" Lorelai laughed.
"Oh I almost forgot!" Lorelai opened her handbag and pulled out a single silver key, newly cut.
"My key?"
"This isn't just any key Luke"
"It isn't?"
"This is the first ever key I have ever given to a man, you'll also be the first man to live in the house"
"I feel honoured"
"So you should be, treasure that key with your life…or you could just break in, you've done that before"
"I won't lose it" He reassured her, putting it away in his trouser pocket. "You ready?" He asked. She grabbed his shirt and pulled him in for a kiss.
"Does that answer your question?" Luke returned the kiss.
"Bathroom now, before we both end up in the bedroom" He spoke. She pulled away and pouted.
"Would that be such a bad thing?" Luke shook his head. Pushing her gently in the direction of the bathroom.
"Go, the sooner I'm packed, the sooner we'll be living together" She walked away, leaving Luke alone in his kitchen, knowing it would be torture knowing that she was so close by.
