Hello!
I just saw that I didn´t answer any of your reviews so far, I´m ashamed and soooooo sorry! I will change that now. There are also some from dpdm which still need to be answered, I will also do that now nd hope that the people also reading this one.
One more thing: I wrote a short songfic to "Angel of mine", which has nothing to do with these two fics, but is just total fluff. If you´re interested, the fic is called like the song, or you´ll find it in my profile. And I would be thankfull for reviews as well!
Now to your reviews, lets start with the last ones from dpdm:
to javajunkie4ever: This book does not exist. It´s just a kind of a story a friend of mine wrote, which is still not finshed, because she doesn´t have anymore time. That´s also why there aren´t more recites out of the bookin this story. But I can send it via email to you if you are interested in what happened so far... Just contact me via email, and i will send it to you!
To all the others that read the story: Thank you som much for reviewing and reading! You already found the sequel...
Now to this story:
to JoEySaNgEl1534: Yes, this bookis really existing. It´s an arabic book for children which I brought from Cairo. It´s so cute with a lot´s of pictures.
to lilienprinzessin: She apologized, because Saras crying was heartbreaking and she felt bad that she caused it. And because she thought that maybe she overreacted. But I thinkher problem will become clearer if you read this chapter!
to orangesherbert7: Waiting is over, here is "The Talk!" ; )
Ok, I hope you´ll like it and please review! It´s the feedback thatkeeps me writing!
Chapter 5: Talking
"So, uhm.. Luke? Can we talk now?" Lorelai asked when she was already lying in bed. Luke was just changing into sweatpants and T-shirt, then lay down next to her. They hadn't had the time to talk all day. Every time Lorelai wanted to talk, something had happened: the twins needed a new diaper, Will was crying, Rory had called, Caesar needed help...
"Yeah, sure!" He said and rolled over on his side. She did the same, so that they were facing each other.
"After you left for the diner this morning, I called my mother and she came over so that we could talk..." Lorelai said carefully, waiting for Luke's reaction, but since he remained silent she went on.
"She apologized and told me that she didn't mean what she said. She was stressed and kind of freaked out when Sara wasn't behaving again."
"She spilled orange-juice on her dress!" Luke said quietly, but with anger still apparent in his voice.
"Actually, Emily told me that she didn't exactly spill it. It looks like she emptied it on her dress on purpose and it was not the first time she did this."
"I highly doubt that! For gods sake, she is two years old!" Luke said a little louder.
"Luke, you know your daughter!" Lorelai said just as loud.
"She is two years old!"
"Luke, you know her!"
"So, you are also saying that she's evil now. A smart devil who is trying to manipulate us!"
"Luke, I am not saying that. Don't put words in my mouth I haven't said!"
"But it sure sounded like it!" Luke said, let out an annoyed groan and rolled on his back.
"Hey we're not finished here! Actually I'm not talking about Sara only, but let's talk about her first. If you think she is just a nice little girl, then tell me why she is throwing herself on the floor all the time. Or why she is kicking and hitting me? Or let's talk about Will: He is crawling on top of everything, no matter how often you tell him not to. He throws things around when he gets angry, or do I really have to remind you of that beautiful whole he has in his door for a month now. He throws his plate through the room when he doesn't like the food just like Sara empties her drinks all over her clothes or throws it on the floor when she doesn't like it!" Lorelai was yelling now and had tears in her eyes. It made her furious how Luke reacted, just like there was no problem at all.
"Oh, and let's not forget our princess who is first pouting, then just stops giving any reaction until she gets what she wants, which annoys me sometimes even more than the screaming and kicking of the other two."
"So you are telling me that our kids are horrible. I don't think so! I think they are too small to behave like perfect little angels. Rory might have been one, but she decided to go crazy later. So it seems like she's not that perfect either. What do you want to do? Let our kids move to the pool house or the garage until they are behaving the way they should again?" Luke yelled back. Lorelai's eyes grow huge and the tears spilled.
Luke regretted the words the moment they had left his mouth. Lorelai stood up and wanted to rush out of the room, but Luke was faster and grabbed her arm.
"Lorelai, I'm sorry! I didn't mean that. I'm just... I'm sorry!" he said softly and hugged Lorelai tight, but she tried to get out of his grasp.
"Lorelai, please. I'm so sorry. You know me, you know that I tend to lose it when I'm upset!" Luke said and stepped a bit back, so that he could look into her eyes.
"Well, that you did this time! Was this really necessary? I just wanted to talk Luke! About our kids. And you're acting like I hate them. I love them, they are everything to me, our family means everything to me. But we can't go on like this. We need to change some things. Do you know why I am so understanding about this Emily incident? Because I understand her, funny enough! Sara hit her and kicked her and she provoked her. They are doing that all the time. Today Sara tried to throw her pens at me and when I told her to pick them up, she refused. When I carried her up to her room, she hit me in the face Luke. I had to hold her hands with one hand and her with the other, so I could make it to their room. Luke, one more slap in my face and I might have hit her, too!" Lorelai cried now.
"Hey, calm down. We will figure it out!" he said and took her in his arms again and stroked her hair.
"Luke they are driving me crazy. Sometimes I'm happy when I can escape to work. You spend the whole day in the diner and I'm here alone with these three. And when dad can't come it's just too much for my mother. She can't handle them alone. God, I can't handle them alone! And it's not really helping when you come home and allow them to do everything they want just to be the nice daddy."
"What do you want me to do?" Luke asked, led Lorelai over to their bed and lay down, pulling her on top of him.
"I want you to be home more often. I want both of us to be home more often. I want us to start setting rules. I want them to stop this horrible screaming. They have to do what we say and not the other way round. I want us to spend more time with just one of them, and I want that we do more as a family. And I want to spend more time with you too, not just breakfast in the diner and then when we come home exhausted from work we both fall into bed, sleeping right away. What do you say? What do you want?" she asked and lifted her head from his chest to look at him.
"That sounds good to me. And I want us to spend some more time with them. I hardly see them, or you. But I think you have to help me with that. I can't stand it when they cry or pout. I just have to give in! And you know that. I mean, you use this pouting-thing as well when you want something!" Luke smiled and Lorelai had to smile back.
"So, it's a deal? You will be home when I am home? And we will look after them together?"
"Deal. I think Caesar can handle the diner after lunch." Luke confirmed.
Lorelai smiled when he reached out and stroked her tears away.
"I can't remember the last time we did this!" Lorelai said.
"Did what? Arguing so that you had to cry because I was an insensitive ass?" Luke asked with raised eyebrows.
"No, talked. Really talked. Not just about what we need to fix around the house, which new bruises Will has or why you threw Kirk out again. But talked about what we want and how we feel." she said and looked into his eyes. "And that although sometimes you act like an insensitive ass, you are my incredibly sweet husband and I love you!"
"I love you too!" Luke smiled and kissed her. When the kiss heated up and Luke's hand slipped under Lorelai's top she moaned, but then pulled away and grinned at him.
"I also can't remember the last time we did this!" She kissed him again and her hands started to pull his shirt up.
"Then I think we should refresh our memories!" Luke said and rolled her over, so that he was on top of her.
She pulled his shirt further up and then pulled it over his head. He did the same with her shirt and then kissed her again, while his hands roamed over her body.
"Luke..." she mumbled between the kisses.
"Mmhh?" he kissed along her collarbone and then slowly further down.
"Just two more things that I want!" she tried to stop him and smiled at him, her hands playing with his hair.
"Yeah?" he said, without stopping what he was doing.
"Apologize to my mother!"
"God Lorelai, do you have to talk about you mother while I am in this position?" he asked and stopped immediately.
"Please Luke!" she said and started to pout.
"Ok, you win! And the other thing you want?" he asked, waiting for her to say something related to coffee.
"You! Now!" She smiled before she pulled him up and crushed her lips to his again.
TBC... Review please!
