School was winding down Lucas and Rory was looking forward for time by there self's. Rory was working for Logan's father and she loved it. Lucas was sitting on his couch when Rory walked inside crying. Lucas walked over to her and hugged her.
"What is wrong Rory?" She didn't answer him just cried into his chest. "What happen Rory please tell me."
"He fired me." Lucas already knew what she was talking about.
"What happened?"
"He said that I don't have what it takes to do this job. Maybe he is right maybe I don't have what it takes to do this Lucas." Lucas cupped her face and whipped her eyes.
"Listen to me Rory you are a great writer he is just a dick."
"Lucas I think I'm going to take a break from Yale."
"No you don't want to do that Rory, just think about everything before deciding on what you want to do. You don't want to run into this thing and make a bad decision." She nodded and they sat down on the couch. "How was your last final?"
"It went well how about yours?"
"I done okay on it. Are you going to tell your mom what you just told me?"
"Yea I think I am I should be headed over to talk to her."
"Good luck with everything." Rory kissed him before walking out of the door.
Lorelai busted into Lucas's apartment and he jumped off the couch.
"What the hell are you doing here?"
"Do you tell Rory to drop out of Yale?"
"No she talked I listened you might want to try that some time."
"She will go back to Yale no matter what you do."
"It's not up to you or me it will be up to her in the end. Rory will do what ever she wants to."
"Since you came along it has all been bad."
"What are you blaming all of this on me? I had nothing to do with Logan's dad firing her so don't blame this on me." Lorelai walked out of the apartment slamming the door.
Rory walked into the apartment with a box of her things she sat them down and looked at Lucas.
"Can I stay here with you for awhile?"
"Yea you don't even have to ask. Your mom paid me a visit today."
"What did she say?"
"That all of this is my fault."
"None of this is your fault Lucas I need to think about things right now."
"Just make me a deal that you will really think about going back to Yale."
"I need some time to think that is all Lucas."
"Have you registered for classes next semester?"
"Yes I have just in case I decided to go back."
"At least your options are still open." Lucas helped Rory move her things inside and put them away.
"You moved in with him?"
"Yes Lane I'm living with Lucas right now."
"Wow this is the first time you have ever lived with a guy in your life." Rory was pouring herself a cup of coffee.
"I know it's different."
"So where is Lucas at?"
"He had to go left weights today."
"Your mom hasn't been too happy lately."
"I know but I need to do this." Lucas walked inside the apartment, putting his bag down on the floor. "Lucas is back I need to go I'll talk to you later Lane."
"Bye Rory." Rory put the phone on the counter as Lucas walked over to her and kissed her.
"How was your workout?" Rory knew that Lucas hated lifting weights since he told her everyday.
"Funny girl."
"I try what do you want to eat?"
"Are you cooking?"
"Funny boy no I'm ordering."
"Anything but Indian food the smell is awful."
"Come on we haven't had it in a while."
"We had it a few days ago." Rory walked over to Lucas and put her arms around him. "This isn't going to work Rory." She kissed his neck and Lucas closed his eyes. "I'm going to take a shower."
"I'll order the Indian food."
"No order Chinese food."
"We just had Chinese food the other night."
"You know they do have this thing called a stove which does more then what you use it for."
"I know Luke has one at the diner."
"You do know we sound like an old married couple right now."
"Something wrong with that?"
"Not at all." Lucas kissed her while walking to the bathroom. "Take a shower with me and I'll let you order Indian food." Rory nodded as she pulled his shirt off.
Rory was throwing the empty boxes away while Lucas was opening the windows. Rory walked over to him and put her arms around his waist. Lucas turned around and kissed her.
"Are you going to visit your family?"
"Why should I they have Nathan the great son."
"Lucas."
"When the game was over they never came over to ask me if I was okay. They were to busy with Nathan, Keith was the only one to talk to me."
"And that is why Keith is like a father to you."
"Yea it is instead of Dan doing his father things he was to busy talking about the good son not the loser son." Rory took his hand and kissed it.
"Lucas you are not a loser you won all the awards and Nathan won none of them."
"But he won the big fancy ring and I didn't."
"You have three more years Lucas you will win one."
"I know quite getting down on myself I know and this will be the last time I do it." Rory nodded and sat down on the couch. "Are you going to your grandparents Friday?"
"I might if someone goes with me."
"Your mom will go with you."
"I was talking about you."
"Okay."
"Really you would go and have dinner with Emily and Richard Gilmore." Lucas nodded and sat down beside Rory. "Do you remember earlier when I said about being married?"
"Yea what about it?"
"Do you want to do it?" Rory looked over at Lucas and he was serious.
"You want to get married to me?"
"Why not we already live together way not get married."
"I'll play along when do you want to do you want to get married?"
"Now." She looked at him again and he shrugged his shoulders.
"We don't have rings or anything. My grandmother will kill us."
"Well we will go and apply for the licenses and get the blood tests and what ever we have to do."
"You're serious."
"Yea why not."
"What if it doesn't work I don't want to be another number. I still don't know your middle name."
"It will work I love you and you love me right." She nodded and he smiled. "The middle name isn't important right now."
"Lucas tell me or I'll call your mom and tell her we're getting married."
"So we are going to do these then?"
"Not if you don't tell me your middle name."
"Eugene."
"Lucas Eugene Scott." Rory laughed at this and Lucas was looking at her. "So are we really going to do these?" Lucas nodded and got off the couch and reached his hand out to her.
"We need to find a doctor who will give us a blood test and then find some rings." Rory nodded and walked out of the apartment with Lucas.
Rory was getting ready for Friday night dinner. Lucas was coming with her but they were not going to tell them that they are getting married. Lorelai was still mad at Lucas but not with Rory when she told her that, she might be going back to Yale. Lucas has gotten Rory a very simple engagement ring a 14 k gold band with a ΒΌ-carat diamond heart. When they pulled, up to the house, Rory was nervous and Lucas smiled at her.
"Everything will be okay Rory."
"I know I'm over reacting for nothing."
"If you want put the ring on another finger." Rory nodded and put the ring on her right hand. Lucas leaned over and kissed her before getting out of the car. They walked up to the door and the maid let them in. Lorelai was sitting on the couch starring at Lucas who was looking right at her.
"So Lucas what are you up to right now?" Emily asked bring him and Rory club soda.
"I'm just working out and getting ready for the season."
"Are you working?" Richard asked and Lucas nodded.
"A garage here in Hartford a few hours a week."
"Who taught you to work on cars?"
"My Uncle Keith owns a garage in Tree Hill."
"So are you going back to Tree Hill anytime soon?"
"We haven't talked about it yet. We might go for a week or something before school starts."
"Rory is that a new ring on your finger?"
"Yes grandma it is Lucas got it for me." Rory hold out her hand and Emily looked at it.
"Is Lucas treating okay?" Lorelai asked looking at Lucas.
"Yes mom he even lets me eat Indian food."
"How can you stand the smell of that stuff?"
"You get use to it when we eat it every week."
"You eat take out every week?"
"No grandma he is just says we do but we don't really."
"So Rory how is your job going for you?" Rory got a job at another paper in Hartford she was doing the same thing she did for Logan's dad.
"It's going great grandpa I love it."
"So does that mean you're going back to school then?" Lorelai asked and Rory looked over at Lucas. She already knew the answer but wanted to here from Rory again.
"Yes mom we talked about it and I'm looking forward to school again." Lorelai smiled at this knowing her daughter's life is almost back on track. Richard and Emily were both smiling also.
"Richard don't they sound like an old married couple?" Lucas and Rory both laughed nervously.
"Yes they do Emily said like we do." Lorelai saw Rory playing with the ring on her right hand while Lucas was looking at the floor.
Thank you for the reviews from the last chapter. The Lucas and Rory getting married just came to me on night of righting I wasn't planning on that happening but it did. Like before I took some things from the show so that was not my idea it belongs to them. The moving in seemed better then her living with in her grandparents poolhouse.
Next chapter will Lucas and Rory get married and what is Lorelai's reaction to the posible wedding.
