Author's Note: This is my first fic, so don't expect too much of it. I've got no idea where the stories heading, but we'll see.
Btw I'm still looking for someone to beta my chapters, cause English still isn't my first language, so I still make horrible mistakes! If you'd like to beta, e-mail me:D
Chapter 1
Lorelai walked into Luke's diner, which was closed but of course she didn't care. She needed her coffee. She just had an interview with a travel magazine about the Dragonfly Inn which she runs with her best friend Sookie. She was still mad at Emily for trying to get her and Christopher back together and so she told the woman who interviewed her some good stories about Emily. Of course the stories weren't positive, but she didn't care at the time being, but now she felt kind of embarrassed.
"Luke, where are you" she called.
Luke came out of the storage room and saw the look on Lorelai's face. He knew that look, he knew something happened and she tried to be strong. She tried to hide it from him.
"Hey, you want some coffee?" He said, trying to be as normal as possible.
"You read my mind" She said.
He placed a cup of coffee in front of her and looked at her. Even when she wasn't feeling to good she still looked amazing as always. He remembered when she came to the diner when she forgot about their date to paint the diner. She wore her pyjamas and had no make-up on and she looked so good. Unfortunately they never went on a new date.
"How was your day?" She asked.
"Pretty much the same, people wanted coffee, I served coffee. Taylor annoyed me, I yelled at him"
"So just the usual"
"Pretty much"
"I had that interview today, you know"
"Oh yeah, how did it go?"
"Pretty good."
"But?"
"Well, I became so mad at Emily at some point, I don't know why but I couldn't stop myself from telling her some good Emily stories."
"What kind of stories?"
"You know, some juicy Emily stories and she probably isn't going to be too happy about the fact that people will now actually know those stories. But I was so mad at her and it felt so good telling those stories, it made me feel so much better, but now…"
"You are feeling guilty?"
"Yeah I am, don't ask me why, cause I still hate her, but I didn't want this to happen. I don't know maybe I'm just scared of her reaction. I know I'm an adult and I can say whatever I want, but I'm so scared of her reaction."
Lorelai broke down and started to cry. Why did she always break down in front of Luke? Was it just because she was so comfortable when he was around, was it because he was such a good friend or was it something else? She couldn't tell. She has had this feeling for years now, but she still couldn't tell what it was
"It's just so weird you know, I'm 36 now, so why am I still afraid of her reactions?" she said between tears.
"Hey" Luke said and came from behind his counter and walked to Lorelai. He hugged her. It felt so good to hold her. He knew he couldn't think like this, but he couldn't help it.
Lorelai hugged Luke back. She loved his arms around her. He always calmed her down a little, but this time it was different. The feeling she has had for years seemed to grow a little bit.
"It's just, she has always tried to control my life and if I did something that didn't fit into her life she became so mad and you know it happened a lot that I did stuff that she didn't approve of so I have to be used to it by now, but I'm still not. I know I sound really stupid right now" She said.
"No, of course you don't sound stupid and you no that!" He said, still holding her. "Just think of her as Taylor and you'll be alright"
She laughed, wiped her tears and looked at him. She so loved his eyes. He always had sort of a sparkling in his eyes. He looked back at her and thought exactly the same. Her blue bright eyes always blew him away.
"Thanks Luke" She said "I don't know how you do it every time, but you always make me feel so much better"
"Anytime" He said.
She hugged him again and wanted to walk away, but Luke pulled her back and kissed her.
He knew he needed to do it now. If he didn't do it now he probably would kick himself later on, cause he now had enough courage to do it.
"Wow" she said.
"I'm sorry, I don't know what I was thinking or doing. Lorelai I'm so sorry!" Luke started to rant.
He took a deep breath and wanted to apologize again, but she interrupted him by kissing him again. The kiss turned from simple to passionate. Finally they got to do what they both wanted to do for so long.
"Wow" Luke said and grinned at her.
"Wow" Lorelai said and grinned back at him.
"I've wanted to do that for so long now" he said.
"Right back at ya" she said, still smiling. "But I really have to go now, Rory's waiting for me at home"
"Sure"
They kissed again for one last time and Lorelai went home. "Why didn't I do that a lot earlier?" Luke thought to himself. If he had known she would have responded like this he would have done this a long time ago.
Lorelai couldn't stop thinking about what just happened when she walked home. Finally everything fell into place. This was the strange feeling she had for years. She was so in love with Luke. It only was another kind of love, which she didn't experienced before so that's why she didn't knew the feeling, but she liked this feeling. Much better then she had known before.
When she got back home, Rory was already there. She entered the house, still smiling.
"Why are you smiling?" Rory asked curious. She knew something happened, cause duh, she knew her mother longer than just a few days and otherwise she didn't smile like this.
"I just kissed Luke" Lorelai told her.
I know, its kind of a short first chapter, but I'll promise you my next chapters are going to be longer! Please review :D
