RING RING
"Hello,"
"Hi Dad, its Lorelai,"
"Hi Lorelai, what's up?"
"Umm I was wondering if me and Luke could come to dinner this Friday?" Lorelai asked getting right to the point.
"I would like that, I haven't seen you or Luke in a while, but you'll have to call your mother,"
"Okay Dad, I'll call her when I get off the phone with you,"
"Okay Lorelai well I have to go I'll see on Friday,"
"See you Dad," Lorelai hung up and got ready to call her mother. She dialed the number and waited for her to pick up.
"Hello,"
"Hi Mom, its Lorelai,"
"Hello Lorelai nice to here from you. How are you?'
"I'm great Mom, how are you?" Lorelai asked making polite conversation.
"I'm good," there was a moment of awkward silence.
"Umm Mom, you know I'm still dating Luke right?" she asked.
"Yes Lorelai I figured you two were still together, weather I liked it or not. Maybe I'll come around sometime," Emily said in slight defeat. Lorelai was shocked but only for a moment.
"Well thank you for trying because I love him a lot and I want you to at least accept him," Lorelai replied sucking up just a little to try and sway her mother's ideas before they told her that they were engaged.
"So any other reason why you called Lorelai, other than to tell me you were still dating Luke," Emily asked in true Emily fashion.
"Oh yea me and Luke were wondering if we could come to dinner on Friday,"
"Any particular reason?"
"We haven't seen you guys in a while I thought it would be nice," Lorelai said sucking up some more.
"Well that's a nice change," Emily said slightly suspicious, "And sure we'd love to have you two for dinner. Come around seven?"
"Sure Mom we'll be there, see you then,"
"See you then Lorelai," They hung up and Lorelai let out a sigh of relief. She got up and left her house to go to Luke's.
She walked into a mostly empty Luke's. Lorelai sat at the counter and Luke gave her a quick kiss and coffee.
"So I called them," Lorelai said.
"And?"
"We are going to dinner at my parent's house on Friday night,"
"Okay," They talked some more then Lorelai left for work.
---------------------------Friday night at seven---------------------------
"Okay Luke are you ready?"
"Yea Lorelai I am,"
DING DONG
"Hello Lorelai, hello Luke. Nice to see you two," Emily said when she answered the door.
"Hi Mom,"
"Hi Mrs. Gilmore thank you for having us for dinner," Luke said. Lorelai had her hands in her coat pocket so not to tip them off, but the maid had to take their coats so Loreali had to find another way to position her hands. She decided to put them on her hips with her thumbs facing forwards while standing there. She put them behind her back when they started to walk into the living room.
"Hello Lorelai hello Luke,"
"Hi Dad,"
"Hi Richard," Luke said. Lorelai and Luke sat down the couch while Richard got them their drinks.
"So how are you Luke?" Emily asked trying her hardest to be polite.
"I'm good, how are you?" Luke replied.
"I'm good thank you for asking,"
"And Richard how are you doing?" Luke asked.
"I'm doing just fine, the business is great. How is your diner?"
"Oh the diner is going great, just fine,"
"Lorelai how is your inn?"
"The inn is great, business is going very well. I expect to break even by the end of the first year,"
"Wow Lorelai that is great, most businesses don't even come close to that,"
"Yea we're pretty excited about that,"
"You should be Lorelai, we are proud of you, you've done great with the inn," her dad said. Lorelai was shocked. That was the first time her dad had ever said anything that came close to saying that they were proud. Usually it was the opposite.
"Yes Lorelai, we are proud of you, you've done great with your life. Though it isn't the lifestyle we wanted for you it is a great lifestyle you've made for you self. Rory has grown up to be a great kid and you've surrounded yourself with the right people," Emily said talking about Luke, "You seem very happy in your life with Luke, he seems like a very nice man, just right for you." Emily said showing that she was finally accepting Luke. Lorelai was even more stunned with this newfound information. She glanced over at Luke and saw he was just as dumbfounded.
"Wow, umm thank you Mom. Umm Mom Dad we um have something to tell you," Lorelai said. "Luke and I are engaged." At first they were shocked, but then the information sunk in.
"Thanks great," Richard said standing up to shake Luke's hand and give his daughter a hug.
"Yes Lorelai, I'm glad you have finally found someone your happy with," Emily said smiling and sincere. "Let me see your ring." Lorelai showed her mom the ring Luke had gotten her. "That is beautiful. Good choice with a man who knows his jewelry," Emily said referring back to when she told Lorelai the best men can pick out jewelry. Lorelai broke out in a smile and hugged her mom.
"Okay my turn," Richard said. Lorelai turned to her dad and hugged him.
"Dad will you walk me up the aisle?' she asked.
"Yes Loreali I would be honored," he said. The maid came into the room to tell them dinner was ready. The four walked into the room happy and smiling. They ate dinner over talk of the upcoming wedding, Rory, and other things. Lorelai and Luke left after dessert.
"Well that went a lot better than I planned," Lorelai said on the way home.
"Yeah I did," Luke said taking her hand in his. They rode home in a nice silence. They arrived home and went to bed, though not to sleep perhaps.
