The next morning it was Christmas day, and Lorelai and Rory woke up early like every Christmas, only this year was different, Luke was going to their house for the day.
It was Seven thirty and Luke still wasn't there.
"Where the crap is Luke?" Rory whined to her mother.
"Well, he could either be sleeping, or what he better be doing, which is getting us very fancy gifts." Lorelai said yawning, "No! I'm getting tired again!"
"Do you want me to make coffee?" Rory asked.
"Yeah, I guess…but Luke's coffee is so much better!" Lorelai said.
"Well, he is not here, so I am making coffee, if it happens to be sucky coffee so be it." Rory said standing up and walking to the kitchen.
"Ah! Where's Luke? It's almost Seven fourty!" Lorelai yelled to Rory, all the sudden there was a knock on the door.
"Luke!" Rory yelled running to the door, and opened it to find Luke holding two small presents in his hands, Rory's present slightly bigger than Lorelai's, but Lorelai still had a fair sized bag.
"Hi Rory." Luke said.
"Okay, umm Luke, my mother is going to kill you." Rory said.
"Why?"
"We don't wait any longer than Seven Thirty to open presents, either you slept in or you were buying really good presents for us and you apparently didn't buy us fantastic presents, did you sleep in?" Rory said.
"No. I had to get your present." Luke said walking into the living room.
"Oh! In that case I totally forgive you! Oh phone be right back." Rory said.
"Luke! You saved me! I can finally open your present! Because I'm sure it's great, because you kept me from opening all the rest of my presents!" Lorelai said.
"Sorry, I was getting Rory's gift." Luke said kissing Lorelai.
"So you got Rory's gift and not mine?" Lorelai said.
"I knew exactly what I was going to get you weeks ago." Luke said.
"Oh, great I'm the easiest to shop for." Lorelai said.
"Yeah you are." Luke said.
"Hey mom?" Rory said.
"Yeah?"
"Umm, can Tristan come over?" Rory asked.
"What you mean today? Right now? Before presents? Before your dead? No." Luke said.
"Luke…yes of course Tristan can come over." Lorelai said.
"Thanks!" Rory said running back to the phone.
"Luke…"
"What?" Luke said.
"Don't be so protective!" Lorelai said.
"Mom! He will be over soon! Thanks, now presents!" Rory said.
"Okay, you guys can open the ones from me first." Luke said.
"Alright, me first!" Lorelai said, she opened the bag, inside there was a few veggies and fruit, and a gold bracelet, "Luke, what the—"
"Oh, umm…do you not like it? I can return it…well I can't but I can try." Luke said.
"Luke, I love it!" Lorelai said.
"Oh, good I'm glad." Luke smiled slightly. Lorelai all of the sudden frowned her eyes widened, she grabbed Rory's arm and pulled her out of the room.
"What?" Rory said.
"Rory! Remember what I got Luke?" Lorelai said.
"Yea-oh my heck. I'm sorry! He's going to be disappointed." Rory said starting to go back to the living room but Lorelai pulled her back.
"Rory. What do I do?" Lorelai said.
"I have no idea, just give him the gift and hope he can take a joke." Rory said. They walked back into the living room.
"Luke, here." Lorelai gave him a small gift, he opened it, and he laughed.
"You know what's funny about this gift?" Luke asked.
"What?" Lorelai said.
"That even if it was meant to be a gag gift, I ruined one of my spatulas and needed another." Luke said holding his brand new spatula in his hand. Lorelai's mouth dropped open, she closed it, as there was a knock on the door.
"I'll get it!" Rory said running to the door.
"Hey Rory." Tristan said as she answered the door.
"Hey." Rory said, "Oh umm…My mom's boyfriend is here so yeah."
"Oh, you mean mister over protective." Tristan said nodding.
"Oh shut up!" Rory said. "Lets go, I haven't opened Luke's present yet." Rory said as they walked into the living room.
"Alright." Tristan said.
"Okay Luke I'm ready for your present now!" Rory said.
"Okay here you go." Luke said. Rory opened the gift, it was a book and coffee.
"You know exactly what to get me." Rory said.
"Hey Rory." Tristan said.
"Yes?"
"Here." Tristan handed her a small box, inside was a diamond necklace.
"Wow, that's pretty expensive for a kid your age." Luke said.
"Right." Tristan said. They finished opening presents at around Nine o' clock, when there was another knock on the door.
"Oh, I'll get it." Rory said.
"Alright." Lorelai said. Rory opened the door, standing in the door way was Christopher.
