Chapter 7: A girl's conditions to her lover

AN: I'm so fast today… And still in a funny mood… But what the heck… Review:

meagan4dominic: Thanks for reviewing again! You want to marry Sawyer too? Wouldn't that be great? dreamy smile

I totally own Lost and Gilmore Girls… IN MY DREAMS! Not in real life, don't sue me!

I don't own "Wannabe", that's the Spice Girls… (Can't believe I'm using that song)

Another appearance of a few Lost ladies… And some Lost guys… Read and enjoy…

Claire felt all hyper and giggly after the kiss. She felt as if she drank five bottles of Spaz Juice in the last five minutes, and she was as hyper as Lorelai normally was.

When she entered her house, Rory and Jess were sitting on the couch, looking like they had been sitting there for hours, really casual. Too casual.

"I know you two were making out two seconds before I came in," Claire giggled, "so don't try to look so casual. It doesn't matter. I already expected it. Just glad I didn't run into the two of you in the middle of something good. Almost seeing Kirk naked is enough for one day!"

Rory and Jess looked at her in shock, then both started laughing along with Claire, who was giggling really loud, holding on to the walls, trying not to fall down.

"Kirk was naked," Jess asked, still laughing.

"Again," Rory asked, laughing even louder.

"What do you mean, again," Jess wondered, looking at Rory. Claire did the same, cause she wanted to look at Rory's face when she explained that. Didn't Jess knew?

"I haven't told you about the test run of the inn," Rory said. "Kirk was also invited, and just as mom and Luke were kissing, he ran by, with just a strategically placed pillow. And another time, when Luke walked mom home, Kirk was sleeping in the boat. Naked, only covered with a blanket, which he dropped once. Mom still claims she is scarred for life!"

The three of them laughed even louder, all thinking about Lorelai saying that. Nobody was thinking about the naked Kirk part, because that would cause to dirty visuals.

"That's one of the reasons that makes this town worth it," Jess said. "The funniness. And of course, the lovely ladies we have here."

Rory and Claire blushed and giggled, while Jess smiled.

"Talking about lovely ladies," Jess said. "There are some people at the door, and there are some mighty fine ladies with them. Unfortunately, I think they're all taken."

Rory smacked him on the head with the DVD-box of Pippi Longstocking, which they had been watching apparently. Claire laughed, and walked to the door.

When she opened it, she was definitely surprised. There they were, her friends from the island. Jack and Kate, looking really happy together, Shannon and Sayid, all lovey-dovey, and Charlie, alone and wearing a lot of eyeliner.

"Hi Claire," Jack said, smiling. "You probably didn't expected us, but we were all up for going here, since Kate and Shannon told a lot of stories about this village. We also heard stories about some of your friends. We'd love to meet them."

James had to be here too, Claire thought. Nobody of the group particularly liked him, except for Kate of course, but he also survived the crash, and was there on the island.

"Hello everyone," Claire said. "Come in! Aaron is sleeping, and I was just coming home. My friend Rory and her boyfriend Jess have been watching Aaron. If you all hold on a moment, I really need to call some people. Including your mom and Luke, Rory. I will do introductions later, so don't go anywhere."

She watched Rory and Jess smile at the survivors, and quickly called Lorelai. Claire told her to come to her place, and bring Luke and James. They were going to have a little party.

"I'm back," she then said. "Rory, Jess, the rest is coming soon. Don't leave yet. For the introduction part: these people are the people who were also on the plane. The blonde is Shannon, who Rory might know."

Claire smiled at Shannon, as did Rory.

"Hi Rory," Shannon said. "Nice to see you again. And Jess, is it?"

Jess also smiled at Shannon, and shook her hand, which revealed the ring on Shannon's hand.

"Is that what I think it is," Claire said.

"Yes," Shannon said, looking happy. "Me and Sayid here, we're getting married."

Sayid was also introduced now, and that left Jack, Kate and Charlie.

"Hello Kate," Rory said. "Nice to see you again. Is that the Jack you were talking about?"

Everyone smiled. Claire almost forgot Rory knew Kate already, from the girls night.

"That's me," Jack said. "Doctor Jack, the one Kate keeps talking about."

Kate blushed, and everyone else laughed. Now, Charlie was the only person who still needed a proper introduction. Claire sighed. She hoped James would be there soon.

"And the other guy, over there," Claire pointed at Charlie, "is Charlie Pace. Bass player from the band Driveshaft. I don't know if you two know the band."

You could see Rory and Jess were thinking about it, but didn't know the band.

"Claire," Rory said. "I think I hear your other guests coming."

When Rory winked at her, Claire realized Rory must know about her and James. And that she really liked it. Both of the girls were smiling, as Claire walked to the door.

"Come in Lorelai, Luke," she said as she opened the door. "James, the survivors are here. I was hoping you would wait a few seconds, and make it a surprise."

James nodded, and Claire let Lorelai and Luke in, while James stayed in the hall, invisible for the rest of the visitors, who were talking and laughing loudly.

"Everyone, meet Lorelai and Luke," Claire smiled. "Lorelai is the owner of the local inn, and Rory's mother, and Luke owns the greatest diner in the country. Lorelai, Luke, these are the survivors I told you about. From left to right: Shannon Rutherford and her fiancée Sayid Jarrah, doctor Jack Shephard and his girlfriend Kate Austin and Charlie Pace, bass player of Driveshaft. Of course you know Rory and Jess. Luke is Jess' uncle by the way."

Lorelai and Luke greeted the survivors and went up to Rory and Jess.

"Wait a minute," Luke said. "Doctor Jack. I've heard someone talk about tha…"

Lorelai stepped on his toe, probably on purpose, to make him shut up about James. Claire giggled and cleared her throat, to get everybody's attention again.

"And I have a surprise for all of the survivors," Claire said loudly. "Someone is here to see all of you. I hope you like it. Surprise, surprise."

Then, James entered the room, and all the survivors stood there, jaws dropped.

"Hello everyone," James said. "Sticks, Ali, Jackass, Freckles and the has been."

Everyone still looked at him in shock, until Lorelai started laughing.

"You're pretty good with the nicknames, pretty boy," she said. "Too bad for you almost everyone here knows about your nickname. Steamrolled Harry Potter, wasn't it?"

The survivors started laughing, and so did everyone else, except for James, who looked at Claire, kind of mad. Claire knew Lorelai would bring that up once.

"That was Hurley," Jack said. "He gave the nickname. About that hideous glasses we made for Sawyer. Don't you remember that Sayid?"

The Iraqi man laughed along with the doctor, and almost everyone else.

"I remember," he said, smiling.

"Okay, enough fun at my expense," James said, slightly showing a dimpled smile.

"Let's do something fun," Shannon said. "Something with the girls, and the boys do something else. I already have an idea."

Every single person in the room agreed to the idea. So the girls went upstairs, and the boys stayed downstairs. They both had an hour to prepare. And then, it would be time for a performance. Claire was already looking forward to it.

--

An hour later, the girls were done with the song they were going to perform. Claire thought it was a silly song, but it turned out to be a lot of fun. They were going to dance, sing, and just have a good time. Have a laugh and stuff like that.

"We'll go first," Shannon said. "Because it was my idea!"

The guys agreed, not seeming to mind at all. Claire spotted all kinds of emotion on the guys' faces, from happiness to disgust in Jess' eyes. He probably hated it, Claire thought.

Kate put the music on, and the girls started in their poses. Showtime!

Lorelai:Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
I love the Spice Girls, Lorelai thought, smiling. And she knew Luke hated them. It always made him look very grumpy when she mentioned it.

Rory: So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
Jess would hate it, Rory knew that. But who knew what kind of song they were going to perform later. It could be even worse.

Lorelai: I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
Yep, he hated it. The song at least, cause he seemed to like her and Rory singing.

Rory: So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
Yep, he hated it. He hated the song, Rory thought, and giggled.

Lorelai: I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna really
really really wanna zigazig ha.
Lorelai hoped Kate would do good, because she had been really nervous. She didn't even want to sing a few lines by herself, but everyone thought she had to.

Kate:If you want my future forget my past,
If you wanna get with me better make it fast,
Thank God that was over, Kate thought, and looked at Jack. He looked proud and very happy, and she smiled at him. She really loved him.

Shannon:Now don't go wasting my precious time,
Get your act together we could be just fine
Shannon didn't think Sayid would know this song, but she caught him lip-singing. She smiled at him, truly happy. He knew the song, she loved him.

Rory:I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
Rory smiled at Jess, giggling at the look on his face.

Lorelai:So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
Lorelai loved grumpy Luke, it made her want to cheer him up.

Rory:I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna really
really really wanna zigazig ha.
Wait a minute, Rory thought. Luke and Jess were silently singing along. Right, Liz was an enormous Spice Girls fan. Or was it something else? She giggled.

All:If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends,
Make it last forever friendship never ends,
If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give,
Taking is too easy, but that's the way it is.
Nervous, Claire thought. Definitely nervous. She looked at James, who smiled encouragingly.

Claire:So what you think about that now you know how I feel,
Say you can handle my love are you for real,
I won't be hasty, I'll give you a try
If you really bug me then I'll say goodbye.
Go Claire, Lorelai thought, happy with how the song was going so far. The guys seemed to like it, because three of them were singing along silently. Luke, Jess and Sayid.

Lorelai:Yo I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
Jess was still singing along. Rory looked at her mom, and they shared a knowing look.

Rory:So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
Lorelai was so having a good time, doing cool stuff. Dirty, she giggled.

Lorelai:I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna really
really really wanna zigazig ha.
The song was slowly coming to an end, Kate thought. She almost felt sad about it, but was also curious about what the guys were going to perform.

All:If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends,
Make it last forever friendship never ends,
If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give,
Taking is too easy, but that's the way it is.
Loving this, Lorelai thought. Her kind of rap was coming, and Lorelai really liked that part of the song. Was it there yet? Almost. Now? Almost. Now!

Lorelai:So here's a story from A to Z, you wanna get with me
you gotta listen carefully,
We got Claire in the place who likes it in your face,
we got K like LL who likes it on an
Easy S doesn't come for free, she's a real lady,
and as for me you'll see,
Shannon loved the fact they adapted that few lines for them. Everyone agreed for her name in the real lady part, because she was the most like Posh Spice. They had a good laugh about that when they were all practicing.

Claire, Kate, Shannon:Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around.
In the beginning, James didn't seem to like it, Claire thought. But now, he was smiling and laughing the whole time. He really seemed to enjoy it now.

All:If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends,
Make it last forever friendship never ends,
If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give,
Taking is too easy, but that's the way it is.
Rory giggled as they were dancing. She didn't dance often, but when she did it, she had loads of fun. Especially if her mom was also involved.

Lorelai, Rory:If you wanna be my lover, you gotta, you gotta, you gotta,
you gotta, you gotta, slam, slam, slam, slam
This really was a lot of fun, Claire thought. Now she really wanted to know what the guys were going to do. It had to be something good.

Claire, Kate, Shannon:Slam your body down and wind it all around.
Slam your body down and wind it all around.
Slam your body down and wind it all around.
Why did she have to do this line, Kate wondered. Everyone clearly thought she didn't have enough lines or something, but she really didn't mind. She just did it.

Kate:Slam your body down zigazig ah
Almost done, Shannon thought. Get ready for the last pose.

All:If you wanna be my lover.

And with that, the song was over. The girls started laughing, as the guys were cheering and were also laughing. Claire thought it was time for their song.

"So guys," she said. "What are you going to perform?"

Everyone stayed quiet, until Jess answered, looking not so happy.

AN: Evil cliffhanger, right there! giggle

Got a question for all of you: What song will the guys perform? … I have a few ideas, but not really good ones… I was hoping someone has a few ideas… smile

And there's that pretty purple button at the bottom of the page… It loves you… And to all of the lurkers, that are not going to review: Still, thanks for reading…
