Chapter #2:

She knew she had to get out of the house. She had been reading her diary almost all night. She had started at the very begginning and finally got to where she had first met Luke and then she drifted to sleep, around 2 A.M

She got up, got dressed and went to Luke's for some of that amazing coffee that she was suddenly craving.

"Hey," she said as she put her purse on the seat beside her at the counter.

"Hey." He said as he poured her coffee.

"Aww how'd you know?" She smiled referring to the coffee.

"Only eight years of serving you." He smiled back.

"Hey, do you remember how we first met?" Lorelai asked wondering if he remembered the day she had just been reading about.

"Uhhhhh...It was at Luke's right?" He said even though he remembered. Of course he remembered, how could he forget? He just didn't want to let her know that he still remembered. He wondered if she remembered.

"Yeah. It was that day that Weston's was closed and I was in a panic because I didn't know where else to get my coffee. I barged in here and annoyed the hell out of you until you yelled at me and told me sit and wait my turn...And then I gave you this horoscope and I told you to keep it because it would be good luck...Remember?" She asked.

"Yeah, It's coming back to me," he told her. She smiled.

"Do you still have it?" She asked him. "I mean it's OK if you don't, I won't get mad...I'm just wondering."

He hesistated for a few seconds not sure if he really wanted to tell her that he had kept it for eight years. But then he reached in his back pocket and took out his wallet. He opened it up and pulled out the tiny piece of paper and showed it to her.

"You kept it?" She smiled.

"Yup." He said. "You will meet an annoying woman today, give her coffee and she will go away..." he read aloud."You know...You never went away..." He told her.

"Well I didn't know your coffee would be this amazing. If you wanted me to leave you shouldn't have gotten me addicted to this cup of heaven." She told him.

"You mean that death in a cup your drinking?" He asked.

She nodded.

"That stuff will kill you, you know." He told her as he always did.

"Yeah I heard something about that..." She said.

He laughed.

"Shit, I have to go." She said as she looked at the clock. "I'll see you later?" she told him.

"Yeah... I'll miss you," He said sarcastically.

"I know you will...Tell you what, I'll walk in slow motion and then you can sing that song...There She Goes by the La's...You know? And you can watch me and just start to sing or hum, whichever you prefer. It will be just like a movie, you know? Like when the guy watches the beautiful girl walk down the beach and she has this amazing tan and her hair is all flowly. Or when the guy watches the beautiful girl drive away forever, or..." She said.

"Everything is a movie to you, isn't it?" He said interupting her.

"Yes." She said and then he watched her go out the door.

"There she goes... There she goes again..." she began to sing as she walked extra slow down the street and flipped her hair in the wind.

Once she had turned the corner she smiled to herself. She always enjoyed going to Luke's in the morning. The coffee was great, but she liked talking to Luke, too. She smiled when she remembered that diary entry she wrote about his butt. She laughed and walked to work still humming the song.

March 8th

So I haven't written in awhile, Luke's old girlfriend Rachel came back to town. It's weird, I can't imagine them together. She is so I dont know. It seems like her life is so exciting, she takes pictures around the world, I mean she's probably seen a zebra up close and I dunnno, everything. Then there's Luke who, all day, just serves food to people like Kirk or physco coffee addicts lik me. They are so different, I guess opposites attract, right?

She keeps hinting that there is something between Luke and I. I heard her saying something about it to Taylor this morning.Whatever. She says she's going to stay for awhile. Luke doesn't seem too happy about it, I wonder why. I don't really know much about what happened with them all those years ago. Something about how she wanted to leave Stars Hollow and well, Luke, of course he stayed.

My mother tried to fix me up tonight. She was trying to get me with this guy whose mother is in the DAR with her. I escaped out the window, it was like deja vu. I had escaped through that window many times before, usually running from my mother trying to set me up with another Yale bound boy, or a fight between my mother and the maid, or I was just running... But this time my dad caught me, surprisingly he let me go, thank God!

And, Dean broke up with Rory. She was heart broken. I don't know what happened with them, but how could he do this to her on their 3 year anniversary? What a jerk. I thought he was such a great guy, guess I was wrong. I usuallly am.

Lorelai

March 15th

Well, today. Let's see,

I visited Max today. I'm not sure why, well yes I am. I missed him, a lot. So I went to see him. I think we're together.

Rachel is still here.

Luke tried to get in a fight with Dean. I know he had good intentions but Dean is 16 years old. I have to admit it was cute though, how Luke went all Dad-like on him and he got so mad. Luke really does care about Rory. It's cute.

And Rory went to a party tonight, she came home crying. I don't know what happened, but I won't ask, not yet. She just needs to get over Dean first.

She flipped the page.

April 26th

I can't really write much but, today was an interesting day, I spent most of with Rachel... She showed me this abandoned Inn. I'm so in love with it. But anyway, she asked me to put in a good word for her with Luke. I don't know why I have to do it. I don't know what I'm going to say. I'll just, I don't know, say something. "Hey, Luke, be nice to Rachel, she likes you and she has a nice rack and with your ass, you guys will have beautiful babies." I can just see his face after I say that. He'd probably blush or something. "Hey Luke, maybe you should give her a chance...Maybe she's changed." That sounds too cheesy, like too predictable.He would just ignore it anyway. I have no idea.

I think she really likes Luke. I think she's really serious about him now. I don't know. He is a great guy, a really great guy.

Lorelai stopped reading. Why did she talk about Luke so much? Sure they were friends, great friends, but there is more about Luke in this then there is about Sookie or even Rory.

She shrugged and kept reading.

May 10th

Well...I have no idea what just happened. I was just standing in my doorway with Max and Luke listening to them bitch at each other, I'm not really sure what was going on there. It defiantly seemed like two jealous boyfriends having a lil bitch fight in my front hall. They both were acting like jealous boyfriends. Luke is not a jealous boyfriend, he's not jealous and he's not my boyfriend, but I don't know that's the only way I can think to describe the way he acted tonight.

Anyway,

Then Max and I started argueing about Luke and other things. He thought we used to be a couple. Why would he think that? Luke is just my Mr Backwards Baseball Cap, he feeds me, he gives me coffee in the morning, he's my friend. I mean, he feeds me! he gives me coffee! he is my hero! I want to break out in song everytime I see him. "Don't you know that your my herrrroooo..." Wow, I'm getting way off track...

But anyway, then we started yelling and ...well, one minute we were arguing and yelling and then he's like "I think we should get married." The words still give me chills. Married? Married to Max? Wow. I told him that an engagement had to have more than that, more than just a way to stop the yelling. He agreed and then today I come to work and there in the room are exactly one thousand daises. I called him up and he told me not to answer, to think about it first.

Max. Me. Mrs Max Medina? Wow, Mrs Max Medina...Sure it has a ring to it, a really great ring...but, married? I was perfectly happy with how things were. Max is great, amazing even. He's a great guy, a nice guy. I mean he's Rory teacher...I just don't know how I feel about this, married? Ugh, just the word makes me start to twitch.

Lorelai Gilmore doesn't do commitment, she's afraid of it. She doesn't even have the samecell phone ringtonefor more than a few weeks, let alone a husband? The only things I have ever commited to are Rory and going to Luke's every single day. I mean duh,Rory and I practically go to Luke's religously.That's all the commitment in my life, that's all the commitment I want...

It's just, Forever? That's a long, long time. But...He is a great guy... I just need to think about this.

Lorelai sighed when she read this. It was true, her only commitments were to Rory and of course going to Luke's every morning. And well, you could count her Friday Night Dinners, but that's only because she had to. She sighed because she knew what she was going to read next. She turned the page and read on.

September 9th

I talked to Luke about marriage today. He gave me a lot to think about, but then I ended up saying yes to Max. I'm not really sure why, I mean why today. I just, well I just said yes. I really have no idea what made me say yes, especially today. But I did.

I'm getting married. Oh God. I'm going to have to make room in my closet, and give him a key and someones going to have to park their car in the garage, either that or on the lawn. And are we going to have kids? Am I going to have to buy a mini van and put up a white picket fence in my front yard? Are we going to get a dog? Are we even going to live in Stars Hollow or are we going to live near Chilton?Married. Oh wow...I said this before and I'll say it again. Lorelai Victoria Gilmore is the queen of no commitments. I suck at commiting. Sure, I have my share of talents, I can curl my tongue and I can open a starburst in my mouth, but making commitments? That's not exactly my strong point, but, I guess that will all have to change now because... Lorelai Gilmore is getting married...

Lorelai

She turned a few pages ahead.

October 16th

Well, that's it. The wedding is off. I don't want to talk or write much about it. This isn't something I want to remember when I'm old, wrinkly and have blue hair. I don't want to be sitting in a rocking chair with tiny glasses that sit on my nose,reading this thinking about my life. I don't want to remember how I broke Max Medina's heart.Ijust, I kept thinking about what Luke said and what my mother said. I just kept thinking of the bachelorette party where I sat there listening to everyone talk about their husbands or boyfriends, and well, the rest is history.

I guess I'll just have to go back to only commiting to Rory and Luke.

Lorelai

She stared at the page for awhile, reading the last line over and over again. She had to have meant to write Luke's Diner not just Luke. She just had a friend kind of commitment to Luke, just a 'hey, hows it going? Wanna give me some coffee? I like your butt' type of thing...They were just friends, it was his coffee she was commited to, or more like addicted to.

She sat back in her bed, reading the last couple of entries she had skipped over before. They were all about Max and how great he was, but they also were about her fears of commitment and marriage.

She began to wonder...

Maybe Max was the one but she had completely blown it because she was afraid. She knew she didn't love him, but maybe if she had given him a chance she could of. Maybe he was the one for her. Maybe if she had just married him they would have been happy. Maybe if she had just called of the wedding, but stayed with him things would have turned out OK. Maybe she would have been happy.

She grabbed her cell phone and then took out the phone book in her drawer. She flipped through it until she found his cell phone number.

She hesistated before calling him, but she finally did. It rang about six times before he picked up.

"Hello?" She heard his voice on the other line.

"Max, hi, it's Lorelai."

"Lorelai...Hi." He said. She could hear the confusion in his voice.

"I - um just wanted to see how you were," she said.

"Well, actually, I'm good." He said. "And how are you?"

"I'm good." She said. Then there was that ever so famous awkward silence between them.

"Umm...yeah..." Lorelai said. She had no clue what to say next, she wasn't sure why she called. She wished she would think before doing things like this. Why hadn't she thought of what to say to him, first?

"Yeah..." He said.

"I just, well... Do you think that, maybe I was just being stupid?Do you think I was running away from a good thing? Do you think things would have ended up OK, you know like... do you think we would have been happy?" She asked him not even truly realizing what she was saying until after it was said. She knew she had crossed the line, she couldn't just call him years later and ask him all of this. She knew it wasn't fair.

"Lorelai..." He sighed. She knew he had no idea what to say. "I'm over it, Lorelai... It's um, too late..." He said knowing how horrible it probably sounded. "It's just um, I'm engaged." He said hesitately.

"Engaged...Oh wow...Uh yeah I'm sorry, Max, I shouldn't have called. I'm not even really sure why I did- I was just- I was um, well I was reading an old diary...And yeah, you can guess the rest..."

He was silent.

"Bye, Max."

"Bye, Lorelai."

She sat there, staring into space for awhile. Then completely randomly, she got up, grabbed her coat and went out the door.

She had no ideawhere she was going. 'All that matters is where going.' She remembered the conversation she had with Rory when she left Max and they went on the roadtrip to Harvard.

And then,she bumped into Luke. He was putting the trash out in the cans.

"What's it like to be married?" Lorelai asked before even saying hello.

"Lorelai? I'm busy." He told her.

"Is it fun? Is it hard? Is it even any different that just dating? I mean, of course it's different...I mean, marriage. Wow. But is it very different?What's it like?" She asked. She wasn't sure why she was even asking him this, it's not like she wanted to be married or anything. She was just asking...And he was just there.

"I doubt you could call what me and Nicole were, married..." He told her. She had forgotton, she had completely forgotton about the divorce. Poor Luke, she wished she hadn't brought it up. Stupid Lorelai! Stupid, stupid, Lorelai.

"Sorry..." She apologized.

"No, it's fine. Don't worry about it... Hey you didn't come by for your usual nightime coffee fix." He told her.

"What do you stalk me? I bet you watch me and keep track of my caffeine needs, you probably have a chart and everything. You get Kirk to snap pictures of my ass when I'm not looking and soon I'll turn around and you'll be watching me through my window. I'll go up to your apartment and find tons of pictures of me plastered all over the wall..." She babbled on having no idea what she was even talking about, she was still thinking about her diary.

"No...I- I just, you always come in before I close..." He said. She loved when she made him nervous, it was so cute. Cute? Oh God, Lorelai stop saying that Luke is cute.

"Well, how much would you hate me if I came by now?" She asked hoping he would let her, she was craving some of his coffee now.

"I don't mind." He told her.

"Great. Let's go."

She opened the door and put her purse down on the table.

"Hey." She said as she sat down. He came over to her with a hot pot of coffee. He poured it in her cup and sat across from her.

"Hey," he said.

"So aren't you going to ask me why I didn't come by tonight?" Lorelai asked, she wanted to talk to somebody and well...she kne Luke would listen.

"No."

"Why not?"

"Because I don't really care."

"Luke!" She gasped.

"Oh fine... Why didn't you come by Lorelai?" he asked pretending to care even though, he really did.

"Well...I told you how Jason and I broke up." Suddenly he sat up straighter, like she had actually caught his attention.

"No." He answered.

"Oh, well we did... But anyway, I came home and I found my old diary...Well fine, it's not that old. I haven't written in it in a few months, though. So I started reading it and I guess I just lost track of time and then well I called Max and then I went for a walk and ended up here." She said.

"You keep a diary?" He laughed.

"Yes... And I even wrote about the day I first met you." She told him.

"Oh, so that's why you asked about it today." He said.

"Yup. Don't you want to know what I said about you?" She asked.

"Sure." He said casuallyeven though he was dying to know.

"Welll..." She thought for a long time. "I said I liked your butt." She smiled at him.

He raised his eyebrow. "Gee thanks." He said sarcastically.

"I knew you'd appreciate that." She smiled at him.

"Soo what's with all the marriage questions?" He asked her after a small silence.

"Well, I was reading about my engagement with Max and I don't know, I was just thinking about it." She said.

"So, I'm guessing that's why you called Max, too." Luke said.

She nodded. "He's engaged."

"Oh..." He said not really knowing how to respond.

"Why didn't you just ask Sookie?" He changed the subject.

"I don't know." She shrugged and then smiled at him. They sat in silence for a few minutes but neither of them seemed to care. They were just smiling at each other, every once in awhile Lorelai would take a sip of her coffee.

Luke finally broke the silence. "Well, I better go, I have early deliveries tomorrow," he said even though he didn't really want her to leave.

"OK." She said getting up and grabbing her purse. "Bye." She smiled.

"Bye," he smiled back. He opened the door for her and watched her start down the street. "There she goes..." She sang softly, but loud enough for him to hear.

She turned around and flashed him a smile and he waved goodbye.

Hmmm...Soo... Tell me what you think guys! Suggestions always appreciated!

Yeah, I don't really know why I did that 'There she goes' thing in there, but well, I was listening to the song and I was like, OK. And well since I had the song, JUst Like Heaven in the first chapter I just kind of decided to make these chapters have song titles, who knows I might do it again. It's a lot easier than trying to find something creative lol. Anyways.

It's hard to explain but I was really stuck on this chapter. I know exactly what I want to write and how I want this story to turn out, but for some reason I was pretty stuck on this chapter. So, I hope it didn't suck too bad. Please tell me whatcha think, good or bad.

Oh and if you care I posted the newest chapter of Stand Still about 10 minutes ago, so check it out!

PLEASE REVIEW!
