Pictures of you by the Cure

i've been looking so long at these pictures of
you that i almost belive that they're real i've
been living so long with my pictures of you that
i almost believe that the pictures are all i can
feel

remembering you standing quiet in the rain as
i ran to your heart to be near and we kissed as
the sky fell in holding you close how i always
held close in your fear remembering you
running soft through the night you were bigger
and brighter than the snow and
screamed at the make-believe screamed at the
sky and you finally found all your courage to
let it all go

remembering you fallen into my arms crying
for the death of your heart you were stone
white so delicate lost in the cold you were
always so lost in the dark remembering you
how you used to be slow drowned you were
angels so much more than everything oh hold
for the last time then slip away quietly open
my eyes but i never see anything

if only i had thought of the right words i could
have hold on to your heart if only i'd thought of
the right words i wouldn't be breaking apart all
my pictures of you

Looking So long at these pictures of you but i
never hold on to your heart looking so long for
the words to be true but always just breaking
apart my pictures of you

there was nothing in the world that i ever
wanted more than to feel you deep in my heart
there was nothing in the world that i ever
wanted more than to never feel the breaking
apart all my pictures of you

"Rory left for Yale again." Lorelai said sadly. She was sitting in the diner talking to Luke. Apparently whenever she had a problem she liked to dump it on Luke. She wasn't into the whole girly talk she usually just liked to tell him her problems and then never talk to them about them again. She doesn't like to obsess over her problems or analyze and think about them for too long.

"It's ok. She'll come back." He said pouring her a sympathy cup of coffee.

"Then she'll leave again." She pointed out.

"And come back again." He said.

"True." She said. "Come over tonight. Another movie night. Please." She said looking up at him.

"Sure." He shrugged.

"You, of course will provide the coffee and burgers." She said smiling.

"Of course." He said rolling his eyes.

"Thanks Luke." She said smiling up at him.

"What are friends for?" He asked. It killed him to call her a friend but he knew that's what she was and he learned to ignore the feeling she gave him. Well almost ignore it.

"Exactly." She said smiling. Her stomach sank down but she covered up well. "I'll see you tonight." She said smiling putting money down.

"Tonight." He said smiling.

"Sookie." Lorelai called ignoring Michel's remarks about her being late. As if she didn't have a watch! Well she didn't but that was beside the point. "Coffee. Hit me up baby." She said going to the coffee machine. Sookie poured her coffee and Lorelai smiled at her. "Angel." She said.

"I've heard something of the sort." Sookie smiled chopping onions.

"Did she angel make cookies?" Lorelai asked.

"In the oven." Sookie said.

"Oh! Amazing! She really is an angel. Where are the wings?" She asked.

"At home." Sookie said playing along.

Lorelai gave her a smile and was about to say something when her phone rang. "Hello." She answered walking out of the kitchen.

"Lorelai." Emily said by way of greeting.

"Mother. How lovely to get a call from you." She said rolling her eyes.

Emily either didn't hear the sarcasm in her voice or chose to ignore it. "I was wondering when I could come to the inn. I need to schedule a DAR function." Emily said.

Lorelai groaned and drank her coffee. "When's good for you?" Lorelai asked.

"Tonight." Emily said.

Lorelai remembered that she was watching a movie with Luke tonight. She couldn't just blow him off. "I can't do it tonight sorry mom." Lorelai said.

"Why a date?" Emily asked.

"No." Lorelai said rolling her eyes.

"What I can't presume? It's Saturday night." Emily said.

"I'm watching a movie with Luke." Lorelai said rolling her eyes again.

"The diner man? You have a date with the diner man?" She asked disgusted.

"No. I'm watching a movie with a friend." She said checking how full they were that weekend.

"Fine." Emily scoffed. "Tomorrow ok with you or do you have to watch another movie with another friend?" Emily asked.

Lorelai ignored this. "Nope." She said.

"Tomorrow for lunch it is." Emily said.

"Tomorrow it is." Lorelai said hanging up rolling her eyes. Michele came up behind Lorelai. "Jeez." She said putting a hand over her heart. "Next time you plan on killing me do it with a gun. Simple point and shoot don't go through all the extra trouble of making my heart go 100 miles per hour." She said.

Michele rolled his eyes and took over the front desk.

8888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888

"What to wear?" She asked herself throwing clothes around her room. "Argh!" She yelled at herself. She had called Rory a bunch of times but she hadn't answered her phone. What's the point of a daughter if she doesn't answer her phone during a crisis? Lorelai was debating over her ripped jeans and her skinny jeans. She threw them both in the air and sighed. Why did it matter? It wasn't a date. It was just Luke.

If it was just Luke then why did she feel like this?

Lorelai sighed and chose her skinny jeans. She found a plain white sugar lips tank top and put it on.

Next stop: Hair. She never knew what to do with her hair but she remembers once when she wore it curly and Luke had let it slip that he liked it better curly. She sighed happy that she remembered. Wait a second Gilmore…happy? Why the hell does it matter?

It doesn't she reasoned with her self

She did her make up and went down stairs. She checked the clock fifteen more minutes. She got out all of the junk food and looked into the mirror. She was going to run up and change her jeans when she heard a knock.

Calm down Gilmore.

She opened the door and smiled. "He comes baring food." She said opening the door to let him in.

He smiled at her. "Wouldn't think to enter this house without it." He said.

His smile made her melt. Yes, as cliché as it sounded it did and she didn't hear any words come out of his mouth. "Of course." She said hoping this was the correct thing to say. Apparently it was because if it wasn't he didn't complain.

"What are we watching?" He asked almost afraid of the answer.

"A godfather marathon!" She said clapping her hands excitedly.

"Of course." He said handing her food.

"Yum." She said taking out her burger and putting it on 'her' side of the couch. She put the first movie in and turned towards him. Now aware of how close she was to him she felt fidgety and awkward. She shuffled a bit away from him and smiled. "Now…do you remember the rules?" She asked.

Luke rolled his eyes. "Of course." He said.

She nodded and put the movie on. She had no idea how but during the movie she had shifting positions and so had he. They were both much closer to each other now and Lorelai was getting nervous. Why? She had no idea. This was Luke. But maybe that was why she was nervous. Because it was Luke. That made no sense to her. It was Luke! Every question she asked herself about why she was nervous came back to: It was Luke. What an answer right? When the first movie ended she was still thinking about this.

"Lorelai!" Luke called.

"Whoa, sorry. I zoned." She said. "What is that in your hand?" She asked her mouth open.

"Remote?" He tried.

"Yes. You never touch the remote!" She said trying to grab it from him.

"Or what?" He asked raising an eyebrow.

"It will get very…very…very ugly." She said.

"Really?" He asked.

"Oh yeah." She said inching closer.

He put his arm up and she reached for it. She toppled on top of him and she giggled. She pulled back and looked into his eyes. Big mistake Gilmore. She got caught in his eyes and it scared her at how intense his gaze was. He tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear but kept his eyes on hers. She was inching towards him and he was tilting his head up. They met and their lips touched. Lorelai had never felt anything like it. It was amazing. Whenever she kissed somebody else it was always awkward but when she kissed Luke it was like…whoa. Just totally different and exiting. She pushed down harder on his lips and he let her. He pulled her down with him. She felt hi off his kiss she felt bold so she opened her mouth. It took a moment for Luke to get what she was doing but when he did he moaned. She gracefully stuck her tongue in his mouth and pulled back looking him in the eye.

She sighed and stood up not sure of what to do. He was staring at her wondering what she was doing and quite frankly, she had no idea. She wanted to apologize but that didn't seem right. She had a feeling he didn't have anything to say either so she just stood there awkwardly letting the tension rise between them. She couldn't stand it anymore so she sighed and looked at him. "What do we do?" She asked him.

He looked at her, look down, and then at her again. "I don't know." He said sighing. "We can- can- we can forget it happened." He got out with much difficulty.

She looked at him. "I can't" She said simply. She sat down and put her hands in her lap. "I mean if I were a frog that kiss would have had major consequences." She said looking up at him. It was then she knew that they crossed the line. That line they both knew was there. Sure they put one foot over the line when they flirted but they never actually crossed it. That invisible line was now crossed and they both knew they could never go back.

"Good to know." He said sitting down next to her.

"What do we do?" She said looking at him.

"I don't know." He said looking down. He shook his head to clear his thoughts up.

"Neither do I." She said looking at him. She had no idea how but she ended up under him with her tongue in his mouth and his shirt half buttoned. Don't get the wrong idea though…their problems weren't resolved. Far from it. They had a lot to talk about but the only thing she could concentrate on was the way his tongue massaged hers. "We should probably take this upstairs." She breathed into his ear while sucking on his lobe. A mystery how she did that but she did.

"Maybe…we…should talk." He said. Of course Luke was the sensible one there. He grounded Lorelai immediately. She sighed and he got off her. She pulled her top down and buttoned her jeans. He buttoned his shirt and fixed his collar.

"We should." She said looking at him. But she had to look away because one more look into his eyes and she would probably be under him again. Or on top of him again. Either way she'd end up with his tongue in her mouth. "I want us." She said still trying to get her normal breathing pattern back.

"Good." He said. "Because I do too." He said.

"Maybe we should keep us, you know, on the down low." She asked praying for a yes.

"Sure." He said smiling.

"Good." She said. "Maybe…I shouldn't tell Rory." She said looking down.

"I think you should but if you want to wait it's up to you." He said genuinely.

"Thank you." She said looking at him. "Let's watch the second movie." She said.

They never got to the second movie. They did however make it to her bed.

She woke up to the alarm but she couldn't turn it off because there was a body in the way. She looked at the person in front of her and smiled as the memories of last night flooded back to her. She got out of bed and took the sheet with her. She wrapped it around her toga style and went to Luke.

She kissed him on the mouth and he stirred. "Morning." She smiled when he finally opened his eyes.

"Morning." He said grabbing her and pulling her on top of him. She shrieked and giggled.

"Luke." She said.

"What?" He asked.

"Are you going to kiss me?" She asked. That was all the encouragement needed he kissed her and she melted into him. Cliché but that was how he made her feel. Basically he made her feel like a trashy hallmark card. "Work." She said rolling off of him. He nodded and got changed. She took a shower and changed also.

"I'm going to go." He said.

"Kiss." She said.

He went over to her and gave her a kiss. "See you for coffee?" He asked.

"Of course!" She said. He left her to do her hair and make-up.

88888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888

"Good morning!" She called to Sookie.

"Who's the guy?" She asked.

"What guy?" She asked trying to wipe off the grin forming on her lips. "No guy." She said shrugging.

"You had sex last night and the last time I checked you were straight. Who's the guy?" Sookie asked.

"No guy." She said drinking coffee.

"You didn't even have a date last night." Sookie said.

"Hence the whole no guy, no sex thing." She said rolling her eyes. Sookie nodded but she wasn't convinced.

8888888888888888888888888888888888888888

"Michele how's the occupancy rate this season?" She asked turning towards him.

"You mean winter that has not yet started?" He asked.

"Yes Michele." She said.

"Look around we look plenty full." He said shrugging.

"You are seriously impossible." She said. Her phone rang. "You check and I'll get my phone." She rolled her eyes at him and answered her phone.

"Hey." Luke said softly.

"Hi." She said smiling feeling like a 13 year old.

"How's it going?" He asked.

"Michele giving me crap and my mother's coming soon." She said rolling her eyes walking to a secluded corner. "But ya know last night made up for all the crappy things happening today." She said grinning. She could feel him blushing at the other line.

"Lorelai." He groaned.

"You called me." She said. He could hear her smiling that sweet smile she always smiled when she was trying to get out of something.

"True." He said sighing. "Um, Lorelai your mom just came in here." Luke said.

"No. She's meeting me here." Lorelai said confused.

"Lorelai I know what your mother looks like and she just came in here." Luke said.

"Ask her what she wants then." Lorelai asked.

"Mrs. Gilmore?" Lorelai heard Luke ask. "Yes. She's at the inn." She heard. "Sure." He said. He turned around to talk to Lorelai. "She's going to meet you there." He said.

"Angel." She said going to get all the menus and things her mother would need.

"Who you talking to sweetie?" Sookie asked trying to get a clue as to who she slept with.

"Luke." Lorelai said. Sookie didn't put two and two together and just shrugged.

"Tell him I say hi." She said. "Oh and tell him about the problem in room 6." Sookie reminded her.

"Heard that. When do you want me to come?" He asked.

"How about when my mom leaves…like during your lunch lull." She said.

"Sure. See you then." He said smiling.

"Ok." She said trying not to smile. She turned around so Sookie wouldn't see her smile. She hung up and sighed. "Here comes Emily." She said leaving with all the stuff she needs. "Mom." Lorelai said smiling. "Find the Dragonfly ok?" She asked her mom.

"Just fine." Emily said lying.

"Good." Lorelai said plastering a fake smile on.

"Very good." Emily said an equally fake smile on.

888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888

"Hey." Luke said coming up behind Lorelai and Emily.

"Oh good you're here." Lorelai said. "And you brought Burt." She said flashing him a smile.

"Burt?" Emily asked.

"His toolbox. One day he left it at our house and Rory and I wanted to bring it back to him but we couldn't because it was just too heavy. So we got accustomed to saying Bye Burt, night Burt, morning Burt." She said smiling.

"I'm sorry I asked." Emily said rolling her eyes.

"We all make mistakes." Lorelai said smiling brightly at her mother.

"Room six right?" He asked.

"The room with the problems." She said sighing.

Once he left Emily gave her daughter a pointed look. "Is he certified?" She asked.

"I don't think so." She said shrugging.

Emily nodded slowly. "I better be going."

"Bye mom. See you Friday." She said heading up to the desk. Once she saw her mother leave she headed up to room six.

"Hey there. Almost fixed?" She asked shutting the door.

"Yeah." He said bending down in front of the desk.

She couldn't resist. She just couldn't. When Lorelai Gilmore saw an opportunity she went for it. She pinched his butt and he yelped. "Sorry." She said giggling.

"You, Lorelai Gilmore are going to pay for that." He said putting his tools down. He walked towards her and lifted her up. He placed her on the bed and began tickling her.

"Stop…" She said breathlessly. "I'm sorry. Stop." She said giggling.

He raised an eyebrow. She nodded. "Ok." He said and crashed his lips down onto hers. She moaned at how fast he did it.

He probed his tongue into her mouth and she moaned again. She stuck her hand in his back pocket and put the other was playing with the ends of his hair. One of his hands was in her hair and the other hand was on her back.

Sookie hearing noise naturally wanted to check on the room to make sure Luke hadn't killed himself. Neither of them heard the door open they were to busy moaning and making out. Sookie's eyes widened and she shut the door.

Oh…my…God…impossible. Luke and Lorelai making out. Oh. My. God. She didn't want to tell me. Sookie thought sadly. She better have a good reason. I just heard Lorelai moan. Ew I just heard my best friend moan. I just heard Luke moan also. Wow I am going to need extensive psychiatric treatment. She sighed and shook her head trying to get the sounds out of her mind.

"You know…" She said pushing him off of her sitting up. "We shouldn't be making out in an inn room during a work day." She said flashing him an evil smile.

"We shouldn't." He said pushing her down. She giggled and rolled him around going on top of him. "But we are." He finished. She gave him one last peck and got up.

"Time to get back to work." She said trying to fix herself up. "I look like I was just making out." She said complaining about her blistered lips and messy hair. Her hair she could fix but the lips needed lipstick and that was downstairs.

"And I wonder why." He said grabbing her waist. She loved this side of him. The playful side.

"And I do too. Hmm I'll get back to you." She said giving him one last kiss. "Fix the desk." She said leaving putting in that extra bounce because she knew he was watching.

She walked into the kitchen and got some coffee. She put the cup back still wanting to taste Luke.

"How's Luke?" Sookie asked as nonchalantly as she could.

"Almost done." She said smiling.

Sookie smiled knowing Lorelai was happy. "Good." Sookie said getting back to her food.

Lorelai nodded. She really needed coffee. She poured herself a cup and drank it. "Amazing." She said to the coffee.

Sookie giggled at Lorelai and rolled her eyes. "Done." Luke said coming into the kitchen. Lorelai walked up to him.

"Good." She said smiling. They walked away and Sookie clucked her tongue.

"Those two." Sookie muttered.
