Ring Ring
"Hello?"
"Lorelai, It's your mother"
"Hi mom"
"I'm having trouble finding a new maid and I probably won't in two days so we'll go out for Friday night dinner this week."
"Okay. Hey why don't we have dinner at my house this week?"
"Can you cook?"
"Yes," she lied quickly
"Well okay we'll be there at 7"
"Okay mom see you then." CLICK What have I gotten myself into! I can't cook, where am I going to learn how to cook? Who do I know that can cook? Sookie's busy…..LUKE! Luke can cook! Lorelai looks at the clock, its 9:50 p.m. She grabs her purse, puts her shoes on, and goes to Luke's.
Outside Luke's
Luke is wiping down the counter as usual and even though the sign says closed she walks right in as usual.
"We're closed." Luke said not even looking up when he hears the bell ring.
"You're never closed for me!"
"Oh, hi Lorelai."
"Luke you can cook right?" Duh nice one Lorelai!
"Ummm yeah"
"Can you teach me how to cook something simple but elegant by Friday?"
"Why?"
"Because Friday Night Dinner is at my house this week."
"Okay, I'll close early tomorrow and come over with everything at seven p.m."
"Thanks Luke," and with that she left the diner.
---------------Thursday 6 p.m Lorelai's house-----------------------
Luke's coming over in one hour! This place is a mess. Wait why do I care if it's a mess or not? Its Luke. Suddenly she was really nervous and she didn't know if it was because if it was the Luke coming over part or the cooking part.
"It's the cooking part." She told her self over and over again. She rushed around to clean up a little. Lorelai wanted it to look like everything was just casually placed there. At 6:45 she ran upstairs to change. She tried on five different outfits before she heard a car door shut outside. She decide what she was wearing was fine, he Bangle's tee-shirt and her favorite pair of jeans. She pulled her hair out the ponytail it was in, brushed her hair a little, and let the curls hang. DING DONG she ran downstairs and open the door. There was Luke standing there with two brown paper bags in his hand. He had on a pair of jeans, a blue flannel shirt, and his blue baseball hat.
"Hey come on in." she said easily
"Hi." they walked into the kitchen, where Luke put down the two Doccie's Market bags on the table.
"So what are we making?" she asked trying not to sound nervous.
"Chicken parmesan," when she gave him a confused look he said, "grilled chicken over pasta with a red sauce."
"Sounds yummy" she said and easy
"Okay lets get started," Luke said as he pulled out a skillet and went looking through her kitchen. He found what he need in two tries, a big pot.
"This is fairly easy. The only difficult part may be the chicken. Now fill this half way up with water." He instructed pushing the pot toward her. As she filled up the pot, she decided it was too quiet. So when she was done with that, she ran up to her room nad grabbed her radio turning it to her favorite station.
An hour and half and one messy kitchen later
"Okay eat up." Luke said. The two of them were standing next to each other at Lorelai's counter with a plate full of chicken parmesan in front of them. They both took a bite and immediately liked it. Lorelai was so happy, before she knew what she was doing she had her arms around Luke's neck in a hug. Before Luke knew what he was doing he was hugging her back, his arms around her waist.
"Thanks Luke," she said as she pulled back slightly to lok him in the face. She loked into and eyes and noticed how blue they were. Maybe it was the blue flannel he was wearing, but they looked great. Lorelai saw love nad passion and pride in his eye and got nervous. Rory always said Luke had a thing for her, but she never considered it, till now. She just shook it off as she slide out f his arms and turned back to eating and listening to the music. The finished the meal in silence. As they were finishing up, Lorelai reconzied the song that began to play.
"Oh my gosh. This is my favorite song." She cried
"What is it?" Luke asked
"I'll Be by Edwin McCain, dance with me Luke?" she asked pleadingly.
"No"
"Just one dance please Luke" giving him the famous pout.
"Fine," he said giving in. Lorelai put her left arm around his neck and held up her right hand for Luke as he slipped heis fright arm around her back, onto the small of her back. And took her right hand in his left
The strands in your eyesThat color them wonderful
Wow Luke has amazing eyes Lorelai noticed for the second time. Wow Lorelai has amazing eyes Luke noticed for the millionth time in his life
Stop me and steal my breathEmerals from mountains thrust toward the sky
They were still arms length apart but a little more comfortable as the danced together in the kitchen. Luke slowly started t move, leading Lorelai. Wow, Luke can dance
I'll be your crying shoulderI'll be love suicide
I'll be better when I'm older
I'll be the greatest fan of your lifeLorelai and Luke were slowly moving closer together as Luke led them around the kitchen, the electricity between them amazing. By time the chorus came around again there bodies were pressed against each other, Lorelai's arms around Luke's neck nad Luke's hands on the small of her back.
I've been dropped out, burnend up, fought my way back from dead"Follow my lead," Luke wispered. Puling back into their original position, but closer. Luke lead Lorelai throught a sequence Lorelai never would have seen Luke as doing let along knowing. As the last chorus ended Luke brought Lorelai over in one of those backbending moves, never slipping, dropping her , or letting go of the eye contact. Lorelai was amazed Luke could do that. As the last strands of the music ended Luke leaned down to help her up, but lorelai lifted her face up to meet his nad kissed him. Surprised Luke almost dropped her, but the hand that was connected caught her. Luke kissed her back and depended it. They kissed as Lorelai stood back up and brought her other hand to Luke's neck. She was standing all the way up when they finally broke, only for the lack of air. Wow! Luke can kiss! Who knew! Wait why'd I do that? Its Luke! Well there goes the friendship. Maybe I'll move into more. Do I want that?
Wow! What the hell just happened! Well there goes our friendship! Maybe it'll move into something more. That what I always wanted right?
