October 1st
So ...I don't even know...
Kirk asked me out on a date today.
Something to do with Luke. I don't know.
I'm a little bit horrified at the moment...
It's Kirk...
He still lives with his mother, he's still in the boy scouts, he collects things you find at the bottom of a cereal box...He doesn't step on cracks because he truly thinks they will break his mother's back... He probably wears footie pajamas and spider man underwear...
Ugh, anways...
I haven't written in awhile. The summer. Well...I don't want to talk about it...It just sucked. It was how I expected to be. I was lonely without Rory. I did spend a lot of time with Luke, though. And that was nice. He always cheers me up, and makes me laugh. So, it was good. That was the only good part.
I had this weird dream, though. I woke up to a million alarm clocks and then I went downstairs and Luke was there, making me breakfast. He handed me some coffee, but it was decaf. Then, I ran around trying to find my coffee, cuz he hid it. Then, I found it, and we went over the grocery list, and he started talking to my stomach, because, wellI was pregnant...Twins...With Luke...Cuz we were married. Yup, Me- Luke- Married. And we kissed...
It's confusing. I tried to get Rory to analyze it, but she was no help.
She says it's all about Christopher and his baby and Sherri. I don't know. Stupid dreams...
Lorelai
Lorelai sighed. The dream. The one where she was married to Luke and they were having twins...Oh God...
She flipped the page.
October 20th
Nothing much to report here...Luke fixed the oven today...That's about it.
Wow. My life is exciting. I should have my owe reality tv show...
And next week...Luke fixes the oven! (says in announcer voice tone)
Oh boy.
Lorelai
She rolled her eyes and read on.
November 11th
The Stars Hollow Dance Marathon.
I spent days, weeks, months! trying to find the perfect dance partner...The one who I could win with this year...I could finally beat Kirk...It wasn't going to be another Henry Ho-Ho McAphie the third type of incident again. I was going to have the perfect dance partner. And some Mcdonald's apple pie in my back pocket,just in case...
Rory.
It was going to be perfect. She wouldn't back out on me, not Rory, not my own flesh and blood.
And, it was going great...But then Jess shows up...Dean gets jealous...A true, Dawson's Creek type of love triangle was happening there...
But, I missed it.
My shoe broke...
And so I ran over to Luke to fix it. We had a conversation about kids and things...I'm not sure why...Just small talk, I guess. Fixing my shoe, talking about kids...Sure, small talk...OK.
He's my prince in shining flannel, that man. He fixed my shoe...Just in time for Dean to flip out and break up with Rory. Causing us to lose the marathon! TO KIRK! Ughhh, damn shoe!
And well, now...Rory and Jess are together...
Let the games begin...
Lorelai
Lorelai laid the book down in her lap. Prince in shining flannel...Yes, he sure was. He always helped her out...Always. He came to her rescue over and over again.
"Hey there, Prince." Lorelai chimed in as she ignored the closed sign on the door and came inside, to see Luke doing the never-ending-job of, wiping down the counter.
"What?" He asked.
"Wiping down the counter, I see..." She smiled and sat down in front of him.
He nodded.
"Hey, do you remember the dance marathon?" She asked.
"Oh God...Lorelai...I've heard the Ho-Ho story..." He said, rolling his eyes.
She giggled. "Nooo...Last year's...When I was partners with Rory." She said.
"Oh, yeah...Why?" He asked.
"And I broke my shoe...Then you fixed it.." She went on.
"Yeah..." He said.
"Cuz you always fix things..." She kept going.
"OK, Lorelai.." He told her.
"Everything. My back door lock, the window, the oven...You and Bert...You always fix everything.." She babbled on.
"OK." He repeated. Where was this going?
"Even when you don't want to. Even when it means you have to listen to me crack annoying jokes or make movie refrences you don't understand."
"I don't mind." He shrugged.
She looked up when he said that.
"Thanks." She sighed.
"What?" He asked. She was so confusing...and hard to follow sometimes.
"Thank you." She repeated again.
He shot her a very questioning look. "Huh?" He said.
"Thank you...For being there..." She told him again. "You're always there...For me, and for Rory."
"Um...No problem?" He said.
"No, I mean it. I mean, you brought the ice...and you try and feed us vegetables...even though they are disgusting...it's nice you don't want us to die." She smiled.
Luke wasn't sure what she was talking about, but whatever. Her smile was so beautiful...
"Your welcome?" He said.
They stood there smiling for a few more minutes.
"Soo..reading the diary again?" He asked teasing her a little bit.
"Yup." She said.
"I was reading about that dream...and the marathon." Lorelai said.
"Dream?"
"Yes...Remember when the Inn caught fire and I told you about that-"
"I remember." He said smiling.
"Yeah..." She said, blushing a little bit. Was Luke making her blush? Oh God...
She was quick to change the subject, thought. "But, anway, thanks..." She smiled.
"No problem." He said shrugging.
"How do you do it?" She asked, but quickly regretted it once she let it slip.
"What?"
Don't say it, Lorelai...Don't say it. "You always make things better." Damn
"What?"
"The oven, the window...You fix it...Whenever I'm sad...You make it better..." Stop, Lorelai. Stop
"I-I don't know..." He was gettin uncomfortable.
"Hey, remember when Kirk asked me out?" She said attempting to make things more comfortable.
He looked up at her smiling. "Yup."
"Not funny." She said. "The man wears spiderman underwear."
"You would know." He laughed.
"Oh, shut up."
"I've always thought of him as a power ranger underwear type of guy." Luke smiled.
"What? You spend all day thinking about Kirk and his underwear? ...Man, wait 'til Miss Pattie and Babette hear about this! Luke has a thing for Kirk!"
"Lorelai." He said.
"Just kidding...Geez...Your secret's safe with me." She smiled.
And with that, she was out the door.
Sooo, how'd you guys like that episode?
I personally, thought it was great! Much, much better...Luke and Lorelai actually touching each other, and OMG a kiss...The way this season was going, I thought it'd be a long shot for that. Them, talking about committing and being married, spending the rest of their lives together...And Luke playing with her hair...cute...
And Lorelai and Rory talked! That was great...Rory calling Luke her step-father...wonderful...And I'm glad that Richard seems to be getting the picture, and I'm happy he now knows that Lorelai was right.
The ending was sweet, too. Luke saying that Lorelai could pull sausage out of her.
Anyways,
please review...I'm not getting too many reviews, so I might just stop the story and delete it. Tell me whatcha think.
