Luke and Lorelai are driving to Lorelai's house.

"I told you six." She said getting out of her car. He got out also.

"I just tried to help." He replied.

"And thank you. You're the best friend ever. But seriously I also needed my window-" She stopped in her tracks.

"What?" He asked looking over her shoulder. There sitting patiently was: Emily Gilmore.

"Mom." Nice stating the obvious Gilmore. She yelled at herself.

"Lorelai. Luke." She nodded in greeting.

"You. She. Still." She couldn't get a sentence out.

"Which window is it Lorelai?" He asked.

"The latch in my bathroom." She said.

"So you want it fixed in case Babbette has a sudden urge to go to your bathroom?" He asked.

"Or Morey." She smiled getting herself together.

"Scary image." He muttered walking up the steps. Lorelai giggled.

"Lorelai?" Emily said. Lorelai forgot that her mom was there.

"Right. Mom. Why are you here?" She asked her mother. "How did you get in here?"

"I did what Luke did." She replied. So Luke's aloud in here but I'm not. I'm her mother!

"Climbed through the winder?" Lorelai asked. Emily gave her a look. "That's how the window got broken." She said with a straight face. Her mother looked at Lorelai like she had seven heads. "Kidding." She said stifling giggles. "Ok. So, you used the door."

"Yes Lorelai we've established that but thank you for the recap." She said.

Lorelai rolls her eyes. "Mom. Care to tell me why you're in my house?" She asks going into the kitchen. She picks up a pop tart and un-wraps the foil.

"That's what you're going to eat?" Her mother crinkles her nose.

"I already ate. At Luke's. This is more of a dessert. Nope. I had that. This is a post dessert snack." She shrugs and puts it in the toaster. It doesn't do anything and she lets out a groan of frustration. "LUKE!" She called out. He comes down.

"Fixed your window." He says shortly.

"Now it's time to fix my toaster." She says in a mock-cheerfulness voice.

"This house is going to collapse one day." He sighs.

"Don't forget the wings, baby." She winks and turns to her mom.

"Work Lorelai." He says. "Wow." He says looking at her. "I always thought of you of at least a semi smart person at least." He says shaking his head.

"Thank you. I think." She pauses. "No. That was mean. Ok I get it. Not the fastest person around. So?" She asks.

"It's not plugged in." He says.

"Oops." She giggles. "We haven't sued it in forever." She shrugs and plugs it in.

"Goodbye Lorelai." He says walking away.

"WINGS BABY!" She calls out to him laughing. Emily watches them. They're hiding something and she knows it. "You look like you're on CSI mom. Chill. Why are you here?" She asks for the umpteenth time. She picks up her pop tart and takes a bite.

"I called Chris." She says.

"That was YOU?" Lorelai asks, pop tart falling onto the floor. "Please mom. Don't ever do that. Ever. Again." She says. Her voice was eerily calm and her eyes showed no emotion.

"I was just trying to-" Emily started but Lorelai attacked her.

"To what? Ruin my life? Get me hurt again?" She asks. Still no emotion in her face, voice, or body language.

"Help." Emily gets out desperately.

"Want to help?" Lorelai asks seriously. Emily just stares at her. "Then next time you call him tell him I never want to see him again." She says walking away up the stairs. Emily sighs and walks away.

Stubborn.

That's what her daughter was. Stubborn.

"She called him." Lorelai dead panned. She plopped down on a stool and laid her head on the counter. Luke understood exactly what she was saying. What she was getting at. It was the next morning and she Lorelai woke up thinking one thing: Chris is going to come back many more times. "Doesn't she understand that every time Chris is involved so does hurt? It's like they're a package. You can't have one without the other." She sighed. "It's Lane's day off isn't it?" She asked and he nodded. "Rory. Spending the day with Lane." She got that much out.

"Coffee." He handed it to her.

"Thank you." She smiled and drank it.

ANNA'S POV

That girl. Her name. What's her name? It's pretty that's all I know. Lulu? No. Lori? Yes. No. What is it? Lorelai! That's her name. Lorelai. I hate her. Every time I see Luke she's with him. The once time she isn't with him he goes gruff again but around her he isn't. She just walked in, head hung down, feet dragging behind her. I feel for her but I still hate her. Not just because it seems like she can eat or drink whatever she wants without gaining a pound, or she has a successful business (mind you she did also have a successful business. But it was basically a pillow store!) But the reason she hated her was because: She had Luke wrapped around her bony finger.

"Hi Luke." I say as I walk in. I sits down next to Lorelai. He nods at me but keeps talking to Lorelai.

I hear the whole conversation. At least I think I did.

"You sure it was her?" He asks. She nods in return head still on the counter.

"Positive. She said so. I needed to tell Rory. But I couldn't she's with Lane hence the searching for Lane." She says.

"Figured as much." He said taking her cup and refilling it.

"No Luke rant. What did I do to deserve this?" She asks in mock shock.

"You need it." He says.

"Why thank you." She rolls her eyes.

Flirting. They were flirting. I will never forget that. Luke Danes is never a flirt. That's as far as the conversation went before I couldn't take it. I cleared my throat.

"I have to go. Dragonfly. I should tell Sookie. I didn't tell her anything. What kind of friend am I?" She asks panic stricken.

"Lorelai. You're an amazing friend." He says placing a hand on her arm. She sighs and smiles.

"Thank you. I should go before Sookie disowns me." She says taking her purse out.

"No." He says she looks at him blankly and so do I.

She gets it first: no he wont take her money.

"Yes." She banters.

"Chris." He reminds her.

"Thank you, Luke." She says and saunters off.

She didn't pay.

"Coffee?" I ask. Luke nods and gets me a cup. Old Luke is back I sigh. Flirt. Maybe he'll get the message. I lean across the counter and whisper in his ear. "Burger. No cheese." He nods and turns around. Not a second glace. Frustrated I look around the diner. They all stare at me like I'm hitting on another woman's man. Which I'm not cause he's single. He is NOT Lorelai's man. "Luke?" I ask.

"Hold on. Cooking your burger." He calls out.

Lorelai runs in the diner and yells for Luke.

"What'd you need?" He asks peeking his head out form the kitchen.

For her. Not for me.

"Pen. Paper." She says. He nods and points to the cash register.

"Where should I leave it?" She asks.

"With me." He says. She hands it to him and smiles. He knows what she's thinking. What she's doing. She doesn't even have to tell him

What is this?

He puts the paper down on the counter and I lean over to take a look

it says:

LANE&RORY

AT DRAGONFLY INN CALL WHEN U GET HERE

XOX LORELAI

She turns around and starts talking to some people from the town. The town never really liked me. It seems like everybody likes her. April likes her. I haven't been clicking with April lately. I never click with anybody.

She turns around and adds something on the note. She added: EMILY IS DEAD.

She giggled to herself while she wrote that. She places the paper on the counter and turns to me.

She puts her hand out, "Lorelai." She says.

"Anna." I say. I don't smile. Maybe that's why I don't click with anybody I don't smile. I try to smile but it comes out a grimace so I just keep a straight face.

"I added to the note Luke." She says.

Her comes out of the kitchen and hands me food and reads it. He laughs.

"No. I won't give it to them." He says still laughing.

"Luke if I did that every time I said it then I would have done it when I was 6." She says. I lean over and look at it. Emily is dead? Emily? Somebody she doesn't agree with.

"You're the one with the work." Lorelai says shaking her head. "Give it to them." She says walking away. Luke sighs and tapes the note to the wall so he doesn't forget about it.

I forgot why I came and I sigh. To get Luke. This looks harder then I thought. Do I still want him? Of course I do. Am I so in love with the idea of love that I'll go to an old flame? No…I still love him. Right?

NORMAL POV

"So she did it. She called him?" Rory asked. She was hurt that her dad didn't come because he wanted to see her but simply because Emily called him. As if reading her mind Lorelai squeezed her daughters shoulder.

It was the night of the day that Lorelai left Rory the note. It was a quite night. Rory and Lorelai linked arms and walk out of their house.

"Um, Rory. Sookie told me she talked to you about Jess." Lorelai said with hesitation.

"I know. He told me he was coming. We're friends. Remember?" She asks staring up at her mom. Lorelai nods slowly.

"Well then you've got to tell me why!" Lorelai says taking her arm away from Rory gesturing her arms towards the sky, "because you, God, Jess, and Luke, are the only ones that seem to know. She slipped her arm through her daughters again she looked down at her.

"You know TJ and Liz right?" Rory asked. Lorelai nodded. "Well, they're looking for homes here and they sent Jess out to look." She said shrugging.

"That's what I was waiting to hear?" She asked screwing up her features to show Rory she was upset that the news wasn't juicier, "They did the same thing when they got married."

"And after their honeymoon." Rory said shrugging.

"I'm going to go do work because I haven't done some in about a week. And I have a lot of work to do." Rory says.

"Ok. Put the Doose bags away sweets?" She asks walking away.

"Sure. Where are you going?"

"Luke's I'll bring you coffee and dinner." Lorelai smiles.

"Nah. I'll order pizza."

"Same some for me."

LUKE'S

"Where's Luke?" Lorelai asked after sitting at the counter for 5 minutes. Lane pointed to his apartment. Lorelai walked up the stairs and knocked on his door. "Luke?" She asks.

"Come in." Luke replies.

"What are you doing up here?" Lorelai asks.

"Nobody was down there so I decided to pay bills." He says pointing to the table.

"I'm here now." She mocks a creepy voice.

"Say that one more time and it'll sound like you're about to attack me." Luke laughs and Lorelai joins in. He gets up and she follows him to the door. He turns around to make a sarcastic comment but gets caught in her eyes. Blue meets blue. Blue gets closer to blue….
