Loreali woke up to sunshine and blue sky, with the sound of birds twittering. It's so nice here, I almost feel guilty .Next she smelled coffee and hopped out of bed, Rory was sitting it the kitchen table staring at the phone, her face was down.
"Hey, Kid, you alright?".
"Ya, mom I'm fine, have some coffee". But by the sound in daughter's voice she knew she was not fine, she deserted the coffee for now and walked closer to Rory, she noticed her face was tear stained.
"Hon, things don't look fine". she sat down and pulled some hair away from her daughters face.
"I miss him so much".
"Logan? that's a touchy subject".
"I don't know what's wrong with me every little thing I do reminds me of him, he always made the coffee, mine tastes like crap".
"Is there something else hon?".
"Mitchum phoned me, just now".
"Mitchum, as in Mitchum Huntzburger, big time jerk, who thinks he rules the world?".
"Ya that one".
"What did he say? Oh no! if he has anything to say, it's not good I'm sorry".
"He said I should not phone Logan anymore, thatI need to let him go and, his son does not need ties from home to slow him down, he probably phoned Colin and Finn too, but they will call anyways".
"Oh, rory you know that's not true, Logan loves to talk to you, I bet it is the best part of his day", she pulls rory into a hug.
"This is kinda funny", said rory pulling away from her mothers hug." Both of the Gilmore Girls with a love life that sucks".
Loreali smiled, and she remembered last night. Her and Luke were on the way to getting back together, and it surprised her, how emotional he had been, crying too.
"Let's try some of this coffee". She got up and poured herself a cup, she put some milk in and tasted it, and put the cup down and put some more milk in."Mmmmm...tastes like..."
"Let's go out and get some coffee".
"Good Idea".
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Later on, Lorelai went to the Inn to check on things.
"Hey Sookie!"
"Oh my Gosh! Hi Loreali! how are things?", she ran up to her best friend and gave her a hug.
"Luke came to see me last night".
"And...", Sookie prodded.
"He said he was sorry, and he might sell the diner".
"What, I can't imagine Luke without his diner, it's like his identity!".
"I know, and since I am not quite ready to forgive him, I don't know what to do!"
"I can't say much in the way of advice, just don't wait to long or one day you may find Luke is gone".
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Loreali stood outside the diner, contemplating going in, she watched as Luke began to put things away and tears stung her eyes, there was a 'For Sale' sign in the window.What am I going to do if he leaves? I still love him, but I don't know if he still loves me, and even if he still does I don't know if things will be the same. Ok, there is only one way to do this, and that is not chicken out, so she walked in to the diner, as Luke looked up, and shesat there at the counter as if nothing happened as if this was just another day, but it wasn't.
"Coffee?".
"Sure", for some reason Luke knew she was coming, and had a fresh pot of coffee waiting, she wanted to savor it, just in case this was the last cup of coffee, she drank from Lukes.
"So, how are things with you and Rory?".
"Well, Rory is having a pretty tough time, Mr. H is being a bully once again".
"What did he do this time?". Concern in his eyes.
"He uh.. told Rory she should not phone Logan anymore, because she is somehow slowing him down, what else does she have to look forward to?".
"What do I have to look forward to?".
"Luke you don't have to sell the diner, don't make me be thereason of that ,you love this diner, and were else am I gonna get good coffee", she tried to make it sound light hearted but it came out shakey. "And April, she is your daughter I bet she wants to see you as much as you want to see her".
"I know and I am going to no matter what Anna says, but I have to wonder, if she really like me, or she just puts up with me you know?", a smirk played across his face.
"Oh she likes you, everybody like you Luke Danes, it's hard not to.
