Chapter 4

So many people have asked why I do short chapters.

Answer- Because when I open a fanfic. I get really annoyed when the first chapter takes an hour to read! I wanna find the juicy stuff..so I do short chapters...but i will do longer ones, but now tonight because I am too tired! Enjoy. I could not figure out if Lorelai and Max were living together so...I made it up. They aren't. YAY

He was watching The Simple Life when he heard a knock at the door. He ignored the knock. 'Damn People' he thought as he continued to watch his show. 'Lorelai?' he thought as he heard the clopping of high heels going down the hall. He raced to the door and opened it to see Lorelai waiting for the elavator.

"Lorelai!" He called startling her.

"Oh hi. I figured you were asleep or something so I was going to just head home."

"No I was watching tv." he replied.

"Ah. Anything good on?" she said, trying to make conversation.

"Nothing that kept my mind off of you." he said flirtatiously.

'Oh come on' she thought. 'Excuse me while I barf.'

"Mmm." she smiled. "So uh. I thought maybe we should talk about what happened tonight. We left things in kind of a weird place."

"Yes we did. Do you want to come in?" he asked hopefully.

She was about to step inside when she said, "Not, tonight. This shouldn't take very long."

"This?" he responded "You have an agenda?"

"Well, I thought that you should know the truth about what really happened tonight. It did not go down the way that Luke said." she said.

"What do you mean the truth?" he asked, then he realized, "He didn't kiss you did he? You kissed him..."

Tears started to form once more. 'God, why am I such a tear shedder tonight?' she thought annoyed at herself for being so breakable.

"Yeah. I did kiss him." she said.

"Why?" he finally said. "Why did you do that, especially at our engagement party."

The tears started cominge even faster now. "I don't know. Max, I am so sorry. I know it is really bad timeing but I "

Upset by her selfishness he interupted and said, " Well it's not all about you! I was going to be a part of this marriage too. My whole life has just changed because your timeing was bad!"

"I know. I know. I'm so sorry. I dont think I can marry you. Not if their is someone else that I care enough about to kiss during our engagement party. Luke has been my best friend for so long, but maybe he is more than that now. I don't know. But I do know that I am so sorry. I never meant to hurt you."

"Well you did." he replied coldly.

"Yeah. I should get going. I'm so sorry, Max." she said.

"Me too." he replied closing the door as she was starting to leave.

She was waiting for the elavator when he came outside and said, "Lorelai..the ring please."

That hurt her the most. "Oh right." she said slipping the rock off of her finger. "Bye, Max."
