Chapter 12
Please Listen to me
Editor's note: from now on the actions that the characters will be doing will be read in paragraphs. When the characters are speaking they will be given their own lines like this,
Lorelai: Sookie what are you doing? But spaced away from the paragraph like so:
Lorelai: "Sookie what are you doing."
Sookie: "Making you chocolate." I hope that's easier to follow. And thanks for the reviews I appreciate them!
Luke knocked on Sookie's front door her car was still there but he hoped she hadn't gone to work yet. He needed her help and badly. Sookie answered the door sleepily and yawning.
Sookie: "Luke what is it?"
Luke: "I need your help with Lorelai. She wouldn't answer the door when I knocked on it."
Sookie: "Try fixing something early in the morning that way she has to come out and talk to me."
Luke: "You mean yell at me because in the morning she doesn't talk she yells. She's not a morning person our sleeping beauty."
Sookie laughed: "All right but try fixing something and come to the Inn to take her out or something I'll talk to her."
Luke: "Sookie you're a marvel I'd better go though and open the diner before I have an angry breakfast crowd."
Sookie: "Bye Luke."
Sookie got ready for work. Jackson had finally woken up and was pouring some coffee. We got the kids ready for their baby-sitter.
Jackson: "Sookie why don't we go on a real date tonight? We can pay the baby-sitter extra to do a night job."
Sookie: "Sounds good honey where will we meet?"
Jackson: "Here I want to take you to a really nice restaurant for a change."
Sookie: "Don't tell Luke that you'll hurt his feelings."
Jackson nodded hugging his kids: "I won't I promise."
Jackson left for work. The baby sitter was late and Sookie had to dash in to the Inn. Michel was at the front desk smirking, Luke was sitting in a chair in the front room and Lorelai was nowhere to be found. Sookie looked at Luke. Luke shrugged.
Luke: "She ran off the moment I came in."
Michel: "Ah so the handyman is in love with Lorelai. Pity. Too bad she does not love him."
Sookie: "Michel your not helping you'll be under um Inn arrest to help every French group that comes in here. I'll make sure Lorelai agrees with it."
Michel: "You're a very evil woman child of Satan."
Sookie: "Hey leave my mother out of this if you ever want your blueberry pancakes again!"
Michel sighed: "I'm sorry there."
Sookie: "My mother was a very noble woman I'm talking to Lorelai about the French men."
Michel: "No!"
Michel glared at Luke: "This is your entire fault."
Luke: "You started it."
Sookie shook her head and walked into the kitchen. Lorelai was staring blankly ahead she looked like she had been crying. In her hands she held two cups of coffee.
Sookie: "Lorelai! Yo Lorelai snap out of it!"
Lorelai: "Oh hi Sookie."
Sookie: "So Michel volunteered to be tour guide to all his fellow French men when they come visit us."
Lorelai laughed: "I'd have loved to hear him say that."
Sookie: "We can go get a quote if you like."
Lorelai: "Is Luke still there?"
Sookie hesitated: "Why don't you at least to what he has to say?"
Lorelai: "What if he breaks my heart again? Sookie I couldn't bear that! I want to get married."
Sookie: "He does to! His biggest regret is not going after you."
Lorelai suspiciously: "How do you know?"
Sookie: "He talked to me." She admitted.
Lorelai: "When?"
Sookie shrugged: "A couple of days ago he knows that both you and April will both be apart of his life."
Lorelai struggled for a moment: "I guess it can't hurt to talk to him but I want chocolate when I come back."
Sookie grinned excitedly: "Anything you want!"
Lorelai walked out into the lobby with trembling hands.

Rory stepped into the Limo with Logan. All day while she had been in Paris with Paris, Louis and Madeline she couldn't stop thinking about what tonight could possibly mean. Logan looked at Rory with pride. How he loved her. He hoped she liked the well the thing he had picked out for her.
Logan: "Hey Ace!"
Rory: "Logan I missed you all day."
Logan: "How was the Eiffel Tower?"
Rory: "Paris turned it into a regular event yelling at people who got in our way at the top. I believe I have now heard the phrase ugly American in French. Well I only heard them muttering but it was definitely French and they were definitely muttering and I know some French."
Logan laughed and placed his arm around Rory.
Logan: "Trust Paris to do something like that. Still I have a question should I ask you in front of everyone and risk being humiliated by your answer or ask you now."
Rory: "Ask me now."
Logan kissed her then he bought out of his pocket a small box: "Lorelai Rory Ace Gilmore will you marry me?"
Rory's eyes opened wide: "Of course I will!"
Logan: "Good! What do you think of the ring? Because I can get you another one if you don't like it." Logan said kissing her.
Rory looked at it. It was a silver ring with medium sized princess cut diamonds all around it. It was breathtaking.
Rory: "I love it Logan."
Logan: "Well then here you go Ace in Amnia Paratis."
Editor's note: if anyone knows how to correctly spell that I'll be forever grateful to them. I don't know Latin for shit.
Rory: "Amen."
Logan: "I'll leave the wedding details to you then. Anything you want you name it and you've got it."
Rory: "I want to call my mother and tell her tonight."
Logan: "Sure Ace."
They arrived at a very fancy restaurant. Logan escorted her in and Rory felt like a princess. It was so magical. She felt she was floating.
Editor's note: okay was it easier or harder to read?
