Four days later it was Halloween, and at Seven o' five Luke showed up.
"Luke! Fashionably late I see." Lorelei said.
"Yeah, well I brought the usual stuff, you know I have, yeah, stuff…"
"Ah, good we'll start with…'IT'!"
"No thank you." Luke said.
"Why?" Lorelei whined.
"Because I didn't get that one." Luke said.
"Why?" Lorelei whined again.
"Because I don't like clowns, they are stupid! Evil clowns are even worse! So I did not get any movie's with clowns."
"Well, okay then. Did you get anything horrifying or do you not like those either?" Lorelei said.
"Well, I did get horror movie's, just not to terribly horrifying movie's, like barney—"
"Oh, well that's good." Lorelei said in fake relief.
"But I'm just kidding, I got 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre' and stuff, you know…?"
"Yeah, I know did you get 'I know what you did last summer'?"
"I got that one, yeah."
"Good that's what we're watching first!"
"I never agreed to that, but I guess we can watch it first." Luke said looking at the other movies he had."
"Good, because I won't settle for anything else than that." Said Lorelei poking her tongue out.
"Yeah, I don't really care to have you upset." He said putting in the movie.
"Oh, I completely agree! You don't want to see me angry!" Lorelei said.
"Well, I have, remember? With, Jess and yeah—"
"Oh, right…I really am sorry about that you know."
"Yeah, I know." He said.
"Yeah, well!" She said clearing her throat, "Are we here to talk about the past, or are we
Supposed to be watching some movies?"
"Watching movies, so lets get started."
"Oh, too late, it's already started." She laughed.
"Yeah." Luke said looking at Lorelei.

Rory crept into the house at about mid-night and was surprised to find Lorelei had snuggled up and fallen asleep against Luke. And was slightly more surprised to see that Luke, who was not asleep, was stroking her hair and looking down at her with a small smile on his face.
"Hi." Rory said.
"Oh, hi Rory." Luke said.
"Did I interrupt?" Rory asked looking at the scene.
"Oh…Uh, no." said Luke who suddenly stopped stroking Lorelei's hair. "No. She's asleep I was just…umm…being here…"
"Right, well, I'll be in my room." Rory said.
"Should I—"
"No, let her sleep for a little while longer. I'm sure she would like that if she were conscious." Rory said, and apparently Lorelei woke up at that exact moment because she opened her eyes and smiled at her daughter and Rory went to bed.
