Disclaimer: Sadly, it is not mine.

Author's Note: After thinking about it, and thinking about it, and thinking about it, I have decided to continue this story. I wrote this at the beginning of this year, literally, I wrote this on Jan 1 2006. In thedraft I wrote, there was more to this. It had like 10 chapters. It had Lorelai finding out and stuff.But I didn't post those up cause it wouldn't make much sense to you, unless you were me, in that case, Hello my twin.

-meant to be a one-shot

But I decided, why not. I'll just rewrite some stuff. And maybe it'll be good enough.

CHAPTER 2: IS HE MAD AT ME?

The diner didn't open until late. But no one really cared. Rory successfully loaded her stuff before anyone, meaning Kirk, had noticed her presence. Rory started to unpack some essentials, clothes, toiletries. Though Luke refused for her to do any home cleaning, no matter how much he like organization, he'd want Rory to rest as well. He knew that she had been up all night packing her stuff.

Rory thanked him, again. She still couldn't believe that Luke had let her stay in his apartment. He loved him for it. She did obey his wishes, she rested for a while. But then got up eventually and started with her resume. As much as she wants to stay above the diner, she really didn't want to be a burden to Luke.

The breakfast crowd had died out. There were only a few people left, including Lorelai. Luke hadn't talked to her much since she came in. the only thing he had said to her were coffee, and that was it. He felt a bit uncomfortable, knowing that his fiancé's daughter was only upstairs. And he knew just how much Lorelai misses Rory.

He didn't want to have to feel guilty not telling her about Rory. Cause if he did, then he would tell her cause he can never lie to her, he hated lying to her. And he didn't know if Rory wanted Lorelai know about her situation right now. And he didn't want to loose Rory's trust. So, he just avoided Lorelai at all cost. Which was really hard to do considering she's in his diner, and he can never ignore her.

He tried to be busy all the time, when there wasn't anything else to do, he went behind the counter to count up some receipts. Lorelai watched him intently, trying to figure out why he hasn't said anything to her yet. She was beginning to worry. What could she have done?

"Luke?" she said.

Luke grunted in response without looking at her, which cause Lorelai to be scared.

"Are you mad at me or something?" she choked.

"What?" he said, finally looking at her. This was the first time he has ever really looked at her this morning. She looked beautiful, yet her eyes filled with fear.

"I don't know, it just seems like you're avoiding me or something." she said, trying not to tear up.

Luke immediately went by her side and hugged her. "Lorelai no. I'm not mad."

"Then why were you avoiding me? You haven't spoken to me. You haven't even kissed me yet."

Luke bent down and gave a reassuring kiss. "I'm not mad. And I'm sorry if it may seem like I was avoiding you. I'm just very busy. We had a delay this morning so I really needed to work."

"Why what happened?"

"Just, we had a delay with opening. It's nothing really. Don't worry about it. And, I'm not mad, remember that."

"Ok." she smiled and kissed him again. "Don't scare me like that again ok?"

"I'm sorry I wont."

"Alright. Well, I have to go to the inn." she said, standing up. "You're coming at lunch right?"

"I'll be there." he smiled and kissed her once more, longer this time.

"Ok, bye." she smiled then left.

Luke sighed. He didn't mean to scare Lorelai. He didn't want her to think that he was mad at her. He really needed to talk to Rory.

A/N: Second chapter, short I know. What I had originally written it was long. But I couldn't find it, so I had to re-write it, and I forgot what I had wrote on the original one. Hope it's still good.

-I know I should also be updating on my other stories. But I'm having a writers block right now (a rare occurrence). And I've been so lazy lately, if I write anything right now, it would be so crappy. I hope this wasn't too crappy.
