A/N—Hey yall..! Thanks again for all the great reviews! This next chapter isnt the most exciting, but I wanted a chapter with some Rory/Lorelai stuff because I feel that their friendship is important. Next chapter will have Logan in it though!!
Chapter Three- It's a Gift
"So, you know, I was thinking that we could wake up early today, hence me coming in you room at 7 in the morning, and we could go to Luke's and get some coffee and pancakes, then make our way to the mall and get an early start on Christmas shopping and we could shop till we drop, then we could come back here to the house and we could invite Logan and Luke to come over and join us in a wonderful movie marathon that contains of Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer, Frosty the Snowman- I want to see if Luke and Logan will cry when poor ol' Frosty melts, hehe-, and then we could finish it off with A Christmas Carol, Muppets way, and then A Christmas Carol, Mickey's way. How does that sound to you?" Lorelai rambled in one big breath as she sat on Rory's bed in the Gilmore home.
"Bah, humbug," Rory grumbled as she rolled over in bed pushing a pillow to her ear.
"Come on Scrooge! Get up!" Lorelai whined, "You don't want me to have to sick the Christmas Ghosts on you, do you?"
"It's so early," she mumbled.
"I'll buy you lots of coffee," Lorelai said in a sing-song tone, bargaining with Rory.
"Get clothes ready for me," Rory said from under her covers. Lorelai smiled.
"Oh Lukey! Where's my handy dandy coffee man, well, handy in other ways too, but right now handy in coffee," Lorelai said mischievously.
"Ew, gross mom," Rory said.
"Don't talk like that here Lorelai. My customers do not want to hear that kind of talk," Luke accused as he brought a coffee pot to their table.
"Rory doesn't want to hear it either!" Rory chimed in.
"But come on Lukey, you know you like it!" Lorelai said playfully.
"Not in my diner I don't," Luke said gruffly.
"But on top of your diner you do," Lorelai said, knowing she was getting to Luke.
"Daughter still at the table!" Rory cried. Finally Luke and Lorelai seemed to notice Rory.
"Oh hey Rory, what can I get you to eat?" Luke said, taking out his order pad.
"Umm, how about some chocolate pancakes with bacon on the side."
"And you Lorelai?"
"Same as Rory except I also want some eggs and sausge."
"Oh, I want some too!" Rory said.
"I still don't see how you two can eat so much and be so skinny," Luke said astonished.
"It's a gift." Lorelai and Rory smiled.
"So should we buy gifts for the boys now, or should we go ahead and get to buying gifts for the grandparents now?" Lorelai asked.
"I think we should go ahead and try to find Grandma and Grandpa something now, incase we see Grandma in here later because then we won't be able to get her a present if she is with us," Rory explained.
"Aww, good idea, Emily does have a way of showing up at any time."
"Yep, so any idea on what you want to get her?"
"Not a clue."
Sixteen stores, 7 bags, and eight cups of coffee later, the girls were finally done with their Christmas shopping, except for each other's gifts of course. They had managed to find Emily, Richard, Luke, Logan, Paris, Marty, Lane, Sookie, Michel, and Christopher all gifts in only five hours. The girls also got themselves some clothes as a reward.
"I think I'm dead," Lorelai said as she and Rory walked through Stars Hollow, on their way to Lukes.
"We should have had some coffee from home."
"My feet hurt."
"My feet can't move."
"My body is aching."
"I need coffee."
"So. Far. Can't. Make it." Lorelai said. They finally got to Luke's door and stood there.
"Rory babe, would you like to open the door?" Lorelai asked sweetly.
"Arms too stiff. Carrying bags all day," Rory mumbled.
:"Mine too. Maybe if we stand here long enough, Luke will open the door for us."
So the girls stood, and stood, and stood.
And stood.
"I'm cold," Rory whined.
"Why isn't Luke opening the door? And how come no one is coming out of the diner?"
"They're all eating. But don't they see us?"
"Luke is being evil. No play time for him anymore."
"Gross mom."
Lorelai smiled.
Luke finally opened the door for the two girls, afraid they would freeze to death. He gave them each a huge cup of coffee, and then told them that he would meet them at their house at 6 for the movie marathon. Rory had also called Logan and he said that he would love to come. The Gilmore Girls were now safely back home after making a quick pit stop to Doose's for some emergency junk food.
Rory was laying on her bed thinking about, well at first she was thinking about how she would have to go back to school on Monday, but that kind of led to her thinking about Logan. She had been thinking about him a lot lately. Ever since she and Dean's breakup, she and Logan had been very good friends. But there was something about their relationship that didn't quite satisfy Rory. She knew that she wanted something more from Logan then just friendship, but she hated admitting it to herself, and she would never say it out loud. If Logan had liked her, then he would have asked her to be his girlfriend a long time ago. I mean, this is Logan Huntzberger. If he wanted a girl then he would have her, he wouldn't just sit around and be friends with her.
"Ugh," Rory sighed.
A/N- yeah, I know, this was a really bad chapter. There was no Logan in it! But I promise he will be in the next chappie! The movie marathon!! Please review! Those things keep me going!
