IMPORTANT NOTE: In this story Lorelai is going to be two weeks older then Luke...on with the story thanks.

A few weeks later at the Gilmore house during breakfast "Lorelai, have you thought about any ideas for what you want to do on your birthday? Emily asked sipping her tea "I'm not sure yet actually" Lorelai replied thinking that she just wanted to spend it with Luke "How about we throw you a party here, you can invite all you new friends for Stars Hollow and even some from Chilton" Emily said "I'm not sure..." Lorelai replied hesitantly "Why not?" "Because its just this is not really there thing and I don't want a big fancy party" "How about a simple party or even a cookout in the back yard and we can hire one of those men that plays music and it will be casual dress" Emily said thinking of ideas that would make her daughter happy since they have been on good terms since Lorelai transfered to Stars Hollow "Well, a cookout does sound fun and we could hire a DJ, but please no fancy meal just hamburgers,hot dogs...stuff like that" Lorelai said finally agreeing "Excellent!" Emily said truly excited "Do you think I can have a few people sleep over?" Lorelai asked while pushing her food around "Absolutely we have plenty of room but only about 5 or 6 people" "Only girls?" Lorelai asked hesitantly "Well of course what boys would you want sleeping here?" Emily asked surprised "I was thinking maybe Luke and Jackson...they could sleep one of the guest rooms and the girls can all sleep in my room together...please mom" Lorelai said clamping her hands together and giving puppy eyes "I guess it's fine but they are to stay in the guest room and I will have to talk to their parents" Emily said sternly "Of course!" Lorelai agreed and jumped from her seat hugging Emily "Just don't mention the boys sleeping here to your father" Emily said and was surprised by the hug. She was also relieved Richard was in California for a few week, he surely would not agree with this "No problem, see you later" She thought over her shoulder as she ran to her room to get her book bag for school.

Later that morning

"So who are you inviting to sleep there?" 'Luke asked as they were sitting on a bench in front of the school waiting for the bell to ring. Luke had his arm around her shoulders and she was snuggled into his chest, to everyone around them this was a normal view. "Well Sookie, Liz and Maddie for girls" She said snuggling deeper into him "Who's Maddie?" Luke asked while gently running his hand that was around her shoulder down her arm "Friend from Chilton, I still talk to her on the phone every once in awhile" "Did you say for girls?" Luke suddenly asked "What?" She asked confused and moved to look at him "You said Sookie, Liz, and Maddie for girls...are there going to be guys sleeping there?" Luke asked getting worried

"Actually, I talked to my mom and she said that you and Jackson could sleep in the guest bedrooms if she talked to your parents" Lorelai said waiting for Luke's reaction

"Really" He smiled

"Yes, I didn't want the guys to feel left out so..." She smiled back at him

"Good" He kissed her softly

"I just came up with a great plan, we can both sneak out of ours room and meet up in the middle of the night" She said excitedly

"Yeah, yeah let's go the bells about to ring" Luke laughed and helped her up then they walked hand and hand in the building

Night Before Lorelai's 18 Birthday

"Are you excited?" Luke asked as they laid on Lorelai's bed watching a show

"Yeah, but I don't really like some of the people coming from Chilton but I'll have you there to distract me from them" She smiled

"Yes you will" He smiled and kissed her softly, then adding a little more to it

Lorelai crawled on top of Luke and started to kiss down his neck while her hands tugged his shirt off. Before anything could go further Luke stopped her

"Lorelai we can't" Luke said stopping her hands

"Oh yes we can" She smiled devilishly at him

"Yes we can but not now it's already passed nine and I have to get back to Stars Hollow" Luke answered and reluctantly got Lorelai off of him

"But Lukeeee" She whined and and pulled him into the sitting position on the bed and sat in his lap

"Lorelai I promise tomorrow we will spend the whole day together when you get back from getting your nails done with the girls O.K?" Luke said and hugged her tight

"O.K" She smiled and gave him a kiss the climbed off of him

"Good night, I Love you baby" Luke said and kissed her forehead

"Love you too" Lorelai said and went under the covers as Luke left the room

At The Nail Salon The Next Day

Sookie, Liz, Maddie and Lorelai were all at the nail salon getting pedicures at the moment

"I can't believe you mom is actually letting guys sleep at your house" Maddie said because she knew how Emily was

"Well lately we have been really getting along I think she realized I'm not the bad kid she always thought I was, I was just not happy at Chilton" She said and flipped to the next page in the magazine she was reading

"I can't wait for the party!" Sookie said and everyone laughed

"Miss Jackson already?" Liz asked her and smiled

"No" Sookie said and blushed they all knew she was lying

"Your almost as bad as this one over here" Liz said pointing to Lorelai

"What's wrong with her" Maddie laughed

"Wait until tonight you'll see her and my brother together it will make you sick" They all laughed

"Come on we are not that bad" Lorelai blushed

"Yeah Right" Sookie and Liz said together

"Well what can I say I love him" She smiled and looked down at her magazine

They all just looked at her amazed and smiled

A little Into The Party

Everyone was in the backyard having a good time. Stars Hollow high students and Chilton students were talking and getting along. Some where dancing others were talking or making out. Emily decided that she would stay in the house and let Lorelai have her party in peace and come out only if she was needed. Everyone that Lorelai invited was there already except Luke, he called 20 minutes ago saying sorry he was running late and he was leaving the house now.

"I can't believe he's late" Lorelai said sadly and looked at Liz. For being about 4 months pregnant she was still pretty tiny and look very pretty in her cute red satin tank and jeans.

"He will be here don't worry" Liz reassured her

Just when Lorelai was about to answer her she felt a pair of hands come around her waist and someone kiss behind her ear.

"Happy Birthday, I'm so sorry I'm late" Luke whispered

"Yeah, yeah you better make it up to me later" She smiled and turned around to face him and gave him a simple kiss

"And on that note" Liz said and walked away laughing at the two

"Hi" Lorelai said as she broke the kiss

"Hi, come with me I want to show you something" Luke said and grabbed her hand and pulled her towards the pool house

"Why are we in here" Lorelai asked as she Luke opened the door to the pool house and brought her to sit on the coach

"I wanted to give you your present in private" He said and pulled out a small present from his pocket and handed it to her

Lorelai took it from him and slowly started unwrapping it, while doing so Luke took a seat next to her and watched with amusement as she took her time

"Luke, what..." Lorelai started when she saw a beautiful silver ring with three small diamonds on it

"It's not an engagement ring or anything, it's a promise ring' He answered and looked at her for the reaction

"It beautiful" She said and kissed him hard on the lips

"I just want to promise you know and this goes with what I said when we were in your room the night you were sick, I promise you that I will be here for you no matter what and that I love you" He said and smiled

"I love you too and thank you" She said and gave him the box

"Why are you giving this to me?" He asked confused

"Are you going to put it on me or not?" She smiled and put her left hand out

"Of course" And he took the ring out of the box and slid it on her ring finger on the left hand

"Did I tell you yet how beautiful you look tonight?" Luke asked

"No" She said simply and stayed hugging him

"Well you look beautiful" He answered and looked down at her. She was wearing a simple light pink strapless dress that went just above her knees

"Thank you, know let's get back to the party" Lorelai said and laughed when they opened the door and saw Sookie and Jackson making out near the pool house in the shadows

"Looks like someone's having fun" Luke laughed

"Hey Luke, hold on" Lorelai said and stopped him before they got back to the party

"Sure what is it?" He asked while still holding her hand

"Tonight around 11 meet me in the kitchen" She told him

"Why?" He asked curiously

"Because I want to spend the last hour of my birthday with you, alone" She said and smiled

"Where are we going to go, theres people in all the rooms and your mom will get mad if she see's were not in our rooms"

"Simple" She said pointing to the pool house

"Good idea" He said and gave her a simple kiss before they started walking back to the party

10:55 That Night

The party was a success and everyone went home about an hour ago, now all the girls were in the room watching a movie Maddie and Liz feel asleep on the floor in the sleeping bags and it was only Sookie and Lorelai lying on her bed.

"Hey Sookie would you mind if I left?" Lorelai asked taking her attention away from the clock since she's been glancing at it every few minutes for the past hour

"Where are you going?" Sookie asked intrigued

"I'm meeting Luke" She said simply

"Isn't he sharing a room with Jackson?" Sookie asked confused

"Yeah, but were meeting in the kitchen and were going to go in the pool house..." Lorelai ended shortly hoping she would get the point

"oh...ohhh O.K" Sookie realized and gave Lorelai a big smile

"You know what else?" Lorelai said and smiled

"What?"

"If Luke's with me that means Jackson will be all alone in his bed" Lorelai smiled at Sookie

"Umm..." Sookie said nervously

"Wait you and Jackson have had sex before right..." Lorelai asked confused

"No, it's not like we don't want to we've tried it's just we always get interrupted because there's always people at our houses" Sookie said sadly

"Sookie why don't you go to his room tonight even if you guys don't, you can still spend some time with him alone" Lorelai said

"Yeah let's go" Both got off the bed Lorelai wearing a pair of skimpy sweat shorts and a tank top that was low and showed a little of her stomach and Sookie was wearing a pair of sweatpants with a tank top

"O.K so just make sure that you are back in the room by five because my mom gets up early and she might look in the rooms" Lorelai said as she pulled on a pair of ugg boots since she would have to walk outside

"O.K" Sookie said and hugged Lorelai

"Happy Birthday, and have fun" Sookie smiled and walked quietly to Jacksons room

Lorelai just smiled at her friend and started walking quietly down the stairs and into the kitchen. Just as she entered the kitchen she tripped over her shoe and made the chair she grabbed onto scratch against the floor

"Very graceful" Luke said laughing quietly and helped her regain her balance

"Thank you" She said and gave him a kiss

"Let's go before your mom finds us" Luke said taking her hand and walking out the kitchen door to the pool house and opening the door slowly. In the pool house there was a full living room and kitchen with all the accessories needed. There was also a big bedroom with a king size bed and plasma T.V

"I love your outfit" Luke said pulling Lorelai to him and kissing her

"I knew you would" She smiled against his lips and slowly started pushing him into the bedroom
