They totally broke apart.

"Wow," for once Lorelai was speechless, something Luke noticed. The silence returned as they cleaned up. Lorelai swayed to the music as she washed the dishes. Once they were done, there was an uncomfortable silence. It was about 9 o'clock.

"Hey want to stay and watch a movie," Lorelai said to break the silence.

"Sure, umm where's Rory?" Luke asked realizing she wasn't there.

"Oh she had late school stuff and then went to her grandparents for dinner. I don't know when she'll be home. What movie do you want to watch? We have the classics, Sound of Music or Willy Wonka?"

"Ummm I've never seen Willy Wonka so lets watch that." They walked into the living room where Luke sat on the couch while Lorelai put the movie in. She sat down on the other side of the couch as the movie started. Soon she was singing along with the Oompa Lompas, something Luke didn't enjoy all that much. Finally the Veruca Salt song came on and Lorelai didn't start singing.

"I don't like this part," Lorelai said to no one in particular. "She's too spoiled." She sat there watching the screen, thinking more about what had happened earlier. "That was a great kiss," came out of her mouth. She turned red, they saying meant to be a thought.

"Yeah, it was," Luke said kind of distantly. Lorelai turned to face him.

"So umm we can just like forget it happened if you want because it was like just between friends and all. And if you want to forget it we can because like I won't care if you want to.." she trailed off realizing she was rambling. She hoped he didn't want to forget it, she didn't think she would be able to hide her disappointment if he wanted to.

"No Lor, I don't want to forget it." He said earnestly.

"Good because either did I because it was a great kiss and it would be kind of hard to forget and kind of weird if we did because would we go back to being friends or wh" she was cut of my Luke's lips on hers. She didn't realize that while she was rambling Luke had moved closer to her till he was close enough to kiss her; then he did. They started slow but with each passing moment the kiss grew more and more heated. Lorelai pushed Luke down on the couch while still kissing him. She started to unbutton the flannel, wanting to know what was under there. He broke the kiss.

"Not tonight," he growled. She placed her legs on either side of him, sat on her knees with her hands by his head leaning over him.

"I just want to know what's under the flannel," she said giving him the puppy eye and the famous pout.

"Fine but that's all," he said giving in. She laid down on him as she started unbuttoning the flannel, kissing again. The weightlessness feeling of her surprised Luke. As soon as she had the flannel off she broke the kiss to look. She let out a gasp at what she saw. Luke's body was perfectly toned 6-pack and all.

"What is it that bad?" Luke asked.

"No, its just wow." She said speechless again. She ran her hands around her torso absentmindedly while they kissed more. Slowly Luke brought his hands up to roam around Lorelai's body, something he wanted for a long time. Suddenly Luke was overcome with the urge to take off Lorelai's clothes, so he broke the kiss.

"What?" Lorelai asked surprised.

"No more for tonight." He said sitting up.

"Fine the good part is back on anyway," surprising Luke at how easy she gave in. She sat up much closer to Luke. Luke's arm was around her, her head resting on his shoulder. At the end of the movie Lorelai got up and turned the TV on. The whole time they never said a word. Lorelai, getting tired, lay down with her head in his lap. He stroked her hair sleepily as they both feel asleep quickly. Rory soon arrived home to find Luke and her mom asleep on the couch with the TV on. She tried not to wake them up but Luke woke up.

"Sorry," she apologized.

"Oh its okay. I need to get home anyway."

"Umm yeah okay. What should we do with your mom?"

"I'll take her up to her room." Luke said. He picked he up, her back and head supported by one hand and her legs draped over the other. She was once again light as a feather. She stirred lightly but he shoossed her as he carried her up the stairs. When he reached her room, he lightly set her on the bed. He un-tucked the covers around her, picked her up and pulled back the rest of the covers. Luke gently set her back down and covered her.

"Night Lorelai," he whispered, kissing her forehead not expecting a reply.

"Night Luke" she replied shocking him. He leaned down to kiss her goodnight on the cheek but she moved. He ended up missing the crashing on her lips. They started slow but the night grew passionately as Luke climbed I bed with her.

--------------------Next Morning-------------------------

"MOM!" Rory yelled up the stairs. Lorelai's eyes shot open. He head was rested on Luke's shoulder, her right arm around his torso and his left arm around her shoulders and back. She was surprised to find Luke in bed with her but as the night before flooded back: she was happy. She glanced at the clock as Rory shouted her name up the stairs again. It was 7:30 am. Lorelai put her hand over Luke's mouth to muffle the sound he might make.

"Yes Rory?" she asked, Luke sort of woke up.

"Come on we're gin to be late to get to Luke's." at the sound of his and Luke fully woke up and tried to talk but it came out muffled. Quietly Lorelai tried to shoot him but rory yelled up " Hi Luke! I figured you were here because your truck is still here and Ceaser called earlier to see if you were here."

"How did we miss the phone?" Luke asked Lorelai

"I don't know, I was pretty tired from last night," she said with a sly smile on her face.

"Come on you two we're going to be late!" Rory called up impatiently.

"We're coming!" Lorelai shouted down to her daughter. "Good morning Luke." She contiuted now quieter.

"Good morning," he said kissing her. It was a quiet kiss but reminded her of everything she wanted. "I'm going to go. I'll see you two at the dinner later?"

"Yeah we'll be there soon," she told him and he left. Lorelai took a shower, got dressed, and did her makeup in about 15 minutes. She went down stairs to her awaiting girl.

At Luke's a little later

Lorelai and Rory walked up to the counter. Luke saw them walk in and had the coffee ready for them.

"Why thank you Lucas," Lorelai said putting on her best Southern accent.

"Whatever," he said gruffly but for a moment they locked eyes and smiled. Luckily no one noticed but Rory noticed, or they would have thought something was up. The two girls ordered and ate quickly, as usual.

"I got to go Mom," Rory said as she grabbed her backpack and left the diner. Luke walked up just as she left and cleared the empty plates.

"Hey I left something upstairs last time I was here. Can you come with upstairs with me to get it?" Lorelai asked.

"Ummm okay," Luke replied confused but as the women he loved but would never tell bounded up the stairs, he got it. As beat him up stairs and when he closed the door her lips were crashing into his. When they broke apart for lack of oxygen Lorelai said, "You left without that."

"Oh sorry. To make it up here," he said kissing her again.

"I love it when you do that," she said after he had kissed her.

"Yeah we'll I have to get back down there so come around at lunch or after diner tonight okay?" he asked knowing she would anyway. They left with one last kiss.
