Sing For Me
Chapter Four
About a week had past and everyone in town had been talking about the talent showcase. A person couldn't walk ten feet without seeing signs up or actually seeing someone practicing some crazy routine outside.
This irritated Luke to no end.
He was wiping down a table in the diner when Kirk burst through the doors.
"Luke," he shouted.
"What Kirk," Luke yelled back. "And never yell in my diner."
"Sorry," Kirk said slightly quieter. "I have a favor to ask of you."
"I'm not putting your sign up, Kirk."
"I wasn't going to ask you to put the sign up. At least it's not the same sign. I made a brand new one."
Kirk hold up a brand new sign that now says, 'The Amazing Kirk is no longer attempting to do a feat never before seen in Stars Hollow due to an outbreak of paper cuts.'
"What the hell is this?"
"I realized that I got a lot of people's hopes up for a great show and now that I had my unfortunate accident I feel the need to let them know."
"I'm not putting this sign up, Kirk."
"But Luke, this sign not only let's people know that they won't see the 'Amazing Kirk' but it also let's them know that they can still see me do a variety of other acts at the talent show. I juggle Luke. Did you know that?"
"That's great. Now get out."
"Luke don't deny the people this knowledge," Kirk yelled back to him as Luke pushed him out. "Don't deny them their joy," he called out before the door closed behind him.
Luke went back to wiping the counter when Lane came through the doors. "Hey Luke," she said to him.
"Hey Lane," he said back. "Good thing you're here. Listen, can you watch the place for a few minutes. I need to go upstairs and make a couple of phone calls.
"Yeah, sure."
"Thanks. Call me down if you need me."
Luke went upstairs leaving Lane to tend to the diner. There were only a couple of people there and neither one needed anything so she just stood behind the counter tapping two spoons together.
The couple got up from their table and the man threw a few dollars down on it. They left the diner leaving Lane by herself. That was something she had gotten used to, especially within the last year.
Lane noticed that Luke needed some more napkins so she walked into the back room to grab some. She opened up a box and picked up a handful. That's when she heard the sound of the bell from the door ringing; implicating that someone was there to get something. She took the napkins and walked back to check on the customer.
Except it wasn't a customer.
Lane's eyes grew open wide.
"Dave," she whispered.
"Hey Lane," Dave said back to her.
Author's Note: Sorry this chapter was so short and light on the funny. Plot movement, people. Plot movement.
