Chapter 14 Lets Talk About You and Me

by CripticWolf

Luke stood outside staring at the house trying desperately to find the easiest way to do this. He had a hammer and nails in one hand and a huge box filled to the rim with Christmas lights resting by his feet. It was only 4 more weeks till Christmas and they were supposed to be getting a huge snowstorm later in the week so Lorelai had pouted and got him to agree to put the lights up before then. Luke sighed and shook his head, 'The things I do for this woman...' Taking a deep breath of the chilly air he exhaled loudly before hauling the box up by the ladder. It was getting colder out and he hated this the most about Christmas but he knew Lorelai loved it and he would stand on his head out here all night if it made her happy. He bent down, grabbed the first batch of lights, and walked up the ladder to begin putting them up. He had to smile as he worked because she didn't know that he was doing this today and he hoped that it would surprise her.

Two hours later and Luke walked down the ladder inspecting his work from the bottom of the driveway. He had to admit, even though he was frozen to the core at that point, it actually looked great. He hoped Lorelai thought so also. Luke felt bad for not being able to see her as much lately and knew that she wasn't as giddy as normal. He looked at his watch, it was 6:28, and Lorelai would be home in about two hours. Sighing he decided to run over to the diner and work for a bit. Luke took one more look toward the lighted house before hopping into his beat up truck and driving in the direction of the diner...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lorelai was driving home from the Inn around 6:50. She decided to leave work early tonight so she could go home and be with Luke. She had missed him alot all day, especially because he left before she woke up for work, like most days, only today she didn't get a chance to stop at the diner at all. Lorelai sighed, them missing each other was happening more and more recently and she definitely didn't like it. She missed being around Luke all the time. Recently every time she saw him, she was swamped at the inn or he was completely in over his head at the diner, or when they both got home late and went directly to bed together and that was all, most of the time he was gone before she woke up in the morning anyway. Lorelai sighed again, a sad frown on her face as she turned down the road leading to the Gilmore house. She couldn't see the house yet though, that's why she was shocked when she got closer to it. Lorelai pulled up in the driveway and quickly turned the car off. She jumped out, not even caring that her feet sunk into the snow and that her high heels and stockings didn't like it, and just stared at her house.

It was decorated. It was decorated in all different color Christmas lights, even those icicle lights. The strands were wrapped around the porch poles and there was even one of those inflatable balloon Frosty's in the yard. 'Who the heck...Luke' Lorelai felt tears welling up. It was freezing outside today and he put up the Christmas lights for her despite that. "Oh Luke..." She smiled and took another look at the house before shuffling down the road as best she could in the snow, ice and heels toward the diner.

On the way there Lorelai thought about nothing but how great Luke was to her. She knew he wasn't a fan of Christmas decorations and that kind of stuff, yet he put them up and put up with them for her. All because he loved her. They'd only been dating a couple months and he'd been everything she'd ever hoped for. He made her happy everyday. Making her coffee in the morning, putting up with her insane tendencies, buying her things, being nice and compassionate just for her, and Rory to of course, but for no one else, sleeping with her wrapped tightly in his arms at night making her feel amazingly loved and safe, and of course the sex, she couldn't forget about the amazing sex. She could live with Lukes kisses alone, they were like heaven to her... like coffee, and she just couldn't get enough. Lorelai had a goofy loving grin on her face and people were giving her strange looks as she ran past them in heels and a skirt but she didn't care, she just wanted to see Luke. She wanted to thank him. With his one nice gesture today he had made her fell happy and giddy again. Her feet were freezing as was her legs but she kept trudging toward the diner. She let out a happy sigh of relief when she stepped through door and entered the heated diner. However everything changed when she walked through the door.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Luke looked up when he heard the bells above the diner ring and smiled immediately. He was actually in a crappy mood because of Taylor annoying him that it looked ridiculous for his shop next door to have lights and other decorations, along with the other shops in town but his was bare and 'unchristmas-spirty'. Still to this day there were five things that amazed and baffled him the most in his life, one, Taylor being so stubborn even though he never won, two, Rory being such a smart and amazing kid, tree, his life turning out so well, four, how he never could win or say no to the Gilmore Girls, and five, how Lorelai managed to make his bad mood fall away completely by just looking at him.

Luke stood there for a moment and looked her over. She had an odd expression on her face, halfway between a smile and a frown. Her cheeks, nose and ears were beat red; she was out of breath, shaking slightly and in heels and a skirt. Luke rushed out from behind the counter and met her halfway. He immediately wrapped her into a hug which she excepted willingly and burrowed into.

"Lorelai baby, your freezing!" He hugged her to him as close as possible and swiftly moved his hands up and down her back and arms to warm her up. "What were you thinking? Its 20-degree's out! Come on," Luke took her hand and lightly pulled her upstairs to his apartment. "Its warmer up here."

When they got upstairs Luke sat down on the couch and pulled Lorelai down onto his lap. She hadn't said anything since she got here and he was getting a little worried. "Lorelai, you okay?" Luke asked still trying to warm her up. He took her freezing hands in his and rubbed them. 'Why the hell hasn't she said anything? Why is she so cold? Did she walk here?' He tried to think when she didn't answer him right away.

"Lorelai?" he tried again this time he got a response. She looked him straight in the eyes and silently started to cry. "Lorelai...what the matter? Why are you crying? Come on here Hun your scaring me, what's up?" All of a sudden she just threw her arms around his neck and buried her face into his shoulder still sobbing. He was utterly confused but hugged her back just as tightly. She had him in a death grip, like if she let go he would be gone.

Lorelai didn't know what had happened. She had planned on walking into the diner going up to Luke, kissing him and thanking him. But then she saw how worried he looked when he felt how cold she was and thoughts of what she'd do without him flooded her mind at once. She knew for a fact that she would die if it weren't for him. He was her pillar, her anchor in the storm, literally at one point, and she needed him. He was the perfect man and she started thinking that he was way to good for her. She started thinking that maybe he deserved better. She took advantage of him alot, he was one in a million and he was her one but she took that for granted. She wished he would tell her that once in a while, not do everything she asked so that he could do something for himself for once but he never did and she felt guilty. She had no clue where this had come from, where these thoughts had all come from but as she sat on his lap she just broke down.

"I love you so much Luke." She said through her now subsiding slightly sobs.

Luke was taken back by that statement. 'Where was all this coming from all of a sudden. I already know that, she knows I do.' "I love you to Lorelai, more then ever, it's overwhelming how much but whets wrong. Honey you 'gotta tell me what's up so I can make it better."

'There he goes again. Wanting to make everything right for me all the time. He's great.' "Luke I... I just wanted you to know that im sorry."

"Sorry?" He asked her softly, still confused now more then before. "What are you sorry for? You didn't do anything." He told her but she shook her head.

"No Luke. I take you for granted." He started to protest but she continued forcing him to wait for her to be done. "You do everything for me all the time. Anything I ask you to do, no matter how silly or embarrassing it is for you, you still do it. Why? Why don't you ever just tell me no? How come you never make me do things you like to do when I make you do things you don't like to do all the time. Why do you love me so much?" She was sobbing again, she couldn't help it and Luke was comfortingly rubbing her back.

After Luke was sure that she was done he started to object. "Lorelai... you don't take me for granted." She lowered her head away from him so he gently took her face and moved her head so that she was looking straight into his intense blue eyes. "I love doing things for you. You don't understand that by now? I would do anything for you because you are the love of my life, everything I could have ever hoped for. I wanted you to notice that for so long, for eight years I wanted to tell you that I loved you but I didn't want to ruin our friendship because you and Rory were always the people I cared about most and I didn't think I could handle it if I lost the two of you. You and Rory are my life. I may grump alot when it comes to the things that you ask me to do but I would never disagree to do them because they are what makes you happy and when your happy, im happy. Now I don't know where this is coming from but I assure you that if it weren't for you I would be lost got it? I love you Lorelai Gilmore with all my heart and like I said before im in." He looked her straight in her teary beautiful eyes and whispered, "Im all in..." Before he kissed her, showing her how much he loved her. Lorelai responded to the kiss almost immediately and they didn't break it until the need for oxygen became a factor.

They sat there in each others arms for a little while before Lorelai broke the comfortable silence. "I saw the lights..." She said a smile playing on her face.

"You did?" Luke asked happy to see the start of a smile.

"Yeah. They looked amazing Luke. They made me so much happier, thank you." She kissed him lightly before leaning back into him. "I love you."

"I love you too Lorelai, don't ever forget it, and your welcome. I was shooting for a smile and some happiness." Luke grinned at her. He was proud of himself, he didn't care how annoying it was or how cold it was out cause it had mad her happy and as he said before what made her happy made him happy.

The fell into another comfortable silence. A little while later Lorelai disentangled Lukes arms from her and grabbed his wrist to see his watch. "How about in an hour we pretend that we just had an argument and make up?" She flirted with him, mischievously.

Luke raised an eyebrow and watched her amusedly. "One hour huh?" He kissed her, then pulled back and said, "How about we make that 25 minutes instead?"

Lorelai smiled at him, kissed him, then let him go down and kick the people out of the diner so that they could 'make up' for their 'imaginary' fight.
