A little Christmas spirit, love and mischief
Two smug smiles on two beautiful brunettes entered the newly decorated Luke's diner
"I mean what's wrong with these people? Have they no respect! This is a Mans property! A mans diner is not a thing to be toyed with!" Luke ranted to Kirk who was admiring the tinsel adorning his table for one "It's just not moral, let other people get all caught up in this Christmas crap why enforce it on people who have to spend hours taking it down?"
"Well maybe you shouldn't take it down" said Kirk without thinking
Rory and Lorelai picked the table beside to get a good view
"What did you just say?" said Luke staring at Kirk
"Maybe…you shouldn't…take it down!" he said slowly watching Luke "I've gotta go!" he yelped and ran out of the diner
"What are you two smiling at?" said Luke gruffly coming over to take their order
"Decide to get in the holiday spirit last night Luke?" asked Rory
"Who are you trying to impress?" asked Lorelai innocently
"Both of you know that those menaces 'the decorator elves' or whatever this nutcase of a town calls them did this and I for one am a man on mission to find out who they are and hunt them down"
"Ohh man on a mission I like it" said Lorelai looking him up and down
"Do you want coffee?" he asked sternly
"With a side of pancakes and bacon!" chirped Lorelai
Luke looked over to Rory
"Scrambled eggs, orange juice and a coffee to go would be great thanks Luke"
"Fine"
Luke stalked behind the counter
Lorelai very conspicuously hid her head behind the menu
"Do you think he's seen the outside yet?"
"No way, he's only at ranting stage" replied Rory in a whisper
A bell over the diner door announced the arrival of Taylor in his favourite grey cardigan
"This is gonna be good" said Lorelai watching him approach Luke
"We need popcorn" said Rory, she too following Taylor's potbellied figure
"Luke" he announced
"Taylor" said Luke not ever looking up from his notepad
"The mayor of Stars Hollow is not a joke"
"What?"
"I am very glad you decided to join in the Christmas cheer this year although your decorations are rather gaudy and ostentatious but that aside the Mayor of Stars Hollow is not a joke" said Taylor pompously
"Why do you keep referring to yourself in the third person? And yes you are a joke"
Taylor grabbed Lukes arm and hauled him outside the diner
"I am not a joke!" said Taylor furiously pointing at the Luke/Santa who's elf was happily hugging his back
"Oh my god" said Luke slowly
Rory and Lorelai came outside the diner
"What's going on?" asked Rory
"That monstrosity" replied Luke
"Hey that elf is really cute!" said Lorelai "And look it's getting a piggyback from Santa!"
"The elf is Taylor, Taylor is the elf" said Luke his face turning redder and redder and boiling over in rage "Out of my way!" he yelled at passing pedestrians
Lorelai giggled
Rory joined in
"So time to go?" asked Lorelai as Rory looked at her watch
"Yep my one way bus to hell" said Rory as she spotted her bus in the distance
"I'll go get your coffee" said Lorelai
Rory adjusted her rainbow scarf as she waited for her mom to come back
"Out of my way! Out of my way!" yelled Luke again returning with a ladder underneath his arm
"Coffee" said Lorelai handing her the cup and turning to watch Luke "Pity" she said as he began to furiously tear at the sleigh and reindeer
"You've got the Polaroid though right?"
"Of course" replied Lorelai giving her a hug as the bus pulled up
"Be bad!" she yelled as the bus pulled up "Do something I would do! It's your last week of term!"
Rory waved to her as she greeted the bus driver
Lorelai smiled and turned to watch Luke tearing off Elf/Taylor's head
