Chapter Three-Talking, and more
Lorelai was waiting patiently by the phone waiting for Luke's call, imagining what she was going to say to him, playing all sorts of conversations and situations in her head. I hope he won't change his mind, I hope we can tell Rory soon, "I hate not telling her things" she though to herself. The telephone rung, giving it a few rings to get her thoughts together she answered, "Luke, is it you?"
"Ya, I was thinking, and I have got all my…… thoughts together, so um, can we talk now, you...you wanna come over? To...to talk and stuff."
"Well, I really do want to talk, but afterwards, can you come back home with me so we can tell Rory, I really hate lying to my kid Luke."
"Sure, sure, just come over; I have a few things I want to tell you."
"I'll be right over!"
The drive to Luke's was short, but gave Lorelai just the amount of time she needed to replay all of the scenarios she had thought about. Replaying every situation she could think could happen, and how she would react to each one. As she approached Luke's her stomach started to feel like there were butterflies in it. Hoping this was just her being nervous, not morning sickness, she resumed going inside.
She was about to knock on the door to Luke's apartment upstairs when the door suddenly came open and a sweaty handed, nervous Luke answered the door.
"Lorelai, come in, please, sit, here ya go, I made some coffee, and …… and, let's talk. First off, I am going to be here for you every… every step of the way, haha, you can count on me for that, so um, ya, and I'll help pay for things for…. For…. For our baby, Lorelai, we're having a baby."
Finding this a bit odd, but sweet she answered, "Yep, we're having a baby, together, I really need you for telling Rory, I have no idea how she's gunna react. Knowing Rory, I doubt she'll be to mad, but you never know, I just.. I'm afraid it'll change our relationship, I'm just… I'm scared Luke."
"I know, so am I, but we can handle this together, I will always be here for you Lorelai. I also want to talk about one other issue that's been on my mind though. Where is Christopher going to be in all of this, how is this going to change our relationship?
Lorelai, not ever imagining this scenario, was a bit taken aback by this question, she never really thought about it, she figured the would just start to date, or become more then friends, she really wanted Luke to be involved in every part of this baby's life, since Rory never had any one like that in her life. She slowly answered,
"I… I thought we would become closer, or date, but, only if you want… I just assumed. I'm sorry, is that stupid of me to just assume that?"
Luke, happily stunned at this answer quickly replied, "No, no, that's not stupid at all, that would actually be kinda nice, you know, dating, for the baby of course, ya, for the baby." He said with a smirk creeping across his face. The thought of kissing her went through his mind, but he quickly refused it, he didn't want to do anything that would screw up what they could possibly have. He didn't want her to think he was too eager about the idea; he just wanted to be there for her.
Lorelai, thinking about kissing Luke also, had a bit more courage then he did, and followed through with her thought. She slowly moved in closer to Luke, glancing at his look to make sure this was okay with him also, from the look on hi face he looked quite happy. So she leaned in and just softly brushed his lips then pulled away waiting for him to return the kiss, and after a short pause, he did. Then, they started to lean back lying down onto the couch, with the kisses getting more intense, more passionate. Lorelai un-tucked Luke's shirt, sliding her hands up his lean, muscular body.
