We're not going to take this!
Disclaimer: I own nothing! I am just obsessing about it per usual. I also don't own twisted sister or Dee Snyder. Although that would be pretty cool if I did.
Summary: why won't Lorelai assert some control over her spinning out of control life? What if she does? How would Luke take it?
Dedication: to my favorite authors on here, who write amazing Luke and Lorelai stories, and inspiring my to write my own.
Lorelai managed to make it two full days before she really accepted that her and Luke were over. She had avoided Sookie and pretty much everyone in town. If she needed something she drove to Hartford. She was even temped to just run away, but Gilmore's just didn't run away from their problems.
Luke had called her the day after their fight, and he had tried to insinuate that he would forgive her, she just had to call him, but Lorelai had reached that boiling point. How happy could she be while ignoring her feelings?
She had watched her parents while she grew up, and even though she hated their life, thinking how fake everything was, she knew her mother loved her father and vice versa. Emily knew Richard loved her, and he told her. Is it so much to ask to be told?
She had briefly forgotten her anger, and then it came back after a brief lapse of regret. How dare he treat her this way? Maybe she was right in not seeing Luke for so many years. He was the one, the only one who could hurt her like he did.
She didn't want to go through that again. Christopher had caused enough havoc in her life.
Life had gone on without much change. She avoided going into town that much and had managed to avoid much interactions with the town's people. Not even Sookie really knew what was going on with Lorelai. She just knew that a certain pair were both very grumpy and strangely anti social.
Lorelai was even more miserable and it didn't help that by each day that there was silence on both sides, it makes her heart cry out. Was it ridiculous that she wanted him to feel a little bit of the pain he had caused. Did he even understand why she cried at night? Did he even know?
She suddenly heard Twisted sister in her head and she started walking towards the Town Square and Luke's. She sees Luke standing behind the counter staring at his daughter. And she stops. Can she go in there and yell at him in front of his daughter?
She is now standing in front of the Diner and he looks up at her and their eyes meet. Her pulse raises and her hands are clammy. Everything her body normally does when she is in front of Luke. But the pain in her heart screamed out at the sight of something that she would never be a part of.
She had only been supportive and happy for him. He finally had that family he feared he would never have. So she stalked into the Diner.
'Lorelai what are..' Luke said and she stepped up behind the counter and started poking him in the chest as she yelled. 'I have the right to be angry, you are never in the home that you and I paid to make our home. You keep things from me after you promised we would have no secrets.'
Luke grimaced and rubbed his chest. 'Lorelai I don't know what to tell you.' Lorelai just sighed and crossed her arms. 'I can't live without you Luke. As much pain as your inflicting, I can't seem to imagine my life without you.'
She sighed and looked at him in a heartbroken way. 'I guess you just don't feel the same. The last time we kept secrets it broke us up, and we were miserable for the entire time. Why are you doing this to me Luke?'
She turns around and is about to leave when April stands up. 'I'm April, I'm guessing your going to be my step mother?'
Lorelai just looks at Luke and shrugs. 'According to him I'm not even supposed to be here. Nice meeting you April.' She left and April looks at her new found father. 'What are you going to do?' she asks.
Luke just stands there watching her run towards her house. 'I don't know.'
