Okay. Well thank you to the people who reviewed the last chapter, but I hope I get more for this one because I live for reviews;) No, but seriously, please review!
Disclaimer: Nope, still nothing
Okay, so for the wedding part, it isn't going to be in the typical wedding order of things (I haven't really been to a wedding since I was about two years old) so it might be a little off, but just go with it. Not all weddings are typical! Enjoy!
On with the Festivities!
After choosing rooms, Luke and Lorelai went their separate ways to start getting ready for the rehearsal dinner. Luke finished first (of course) and went to watch some sports on the TV while he waited for Lorelai.
"Okay, Flower dress, green dress or blue dress." Lorelai muttered to herself. She had narrowed it down to three choices, and needed to pick the best one. Who knows who I might run into when I go out in public? Not to mention, Luke will be there, Lorelai thought.
Once she was clothed in tasteful, floral patterned dress, she stepped out of her room, ready to leave.
"Wow, Lorelai, you look beautiful." Luke commented.
"I did out do myself this time, didn't I?" Lorelai joked.
"Well, we should get going we don't want to be late."
"A lady can be fashionably late. She needs all the time she can get to… err…powder her nose?" Lorelai said with a giggle.
"Well my nose is already powdered, so I think we are good to go." Luke said, sarcastically.
They got into the elevator, and stood in silence. Lorelai thought she could sense Luke's eyes on her through the reflection on the metal door, but she didn't dare turn to look at him.
The elevator stopped on the main level, and the doors slowly slid open.
"Hey!" Brett said, popping out in front of the elevator doors.
"Oh, umm hey Brett." Luke said.
"Well, don't stand in the elevator all night. Go on, have fun. The parties over there!" He gestured towards a large room with tacky centerpieces and tablecloths.
"I thought this was just the rehearsal dinner." Luke added.
"Same difference: Party, rehearsal dinner. Who cares! Go and celebrate!"
Luke and Lorelai were making their way over to the "party", as Brett had put it, when Lorelai remarked, "That guy is everywhere isn't he? Don't you think he would be spending time with his fiancé, at least for some of the evening?"
"Brett always was the weird one in our family… You never knew quite what was going on in his head. He was the wild party guy. I have no idea where he got that from." Luke trailed off at the end as he caught site of somebody across the room. "Hold on I will be right back." Luke said, and walked over to an attractive woman with dirty blonde hair. Lorelai felt a twinge of jealousy in her stomach.
Lorelai was watching the two interact, when she felt something brush her forearm. She turned around and found herself standing face to face to an extremely attractive man.
"Hey, my name is Jake." He stuck out his hand for her to shake.
"Hi, I'm Lorelai." She took his hand and he gently shook it. "Nice to meet you."
"So, are you friends of Shannon's?" (A/N: the bride to be) Jake asked.
"No. I actually haven't even seen her yet."
"Oh, so then you must be friends with Brett?"
"Actually no, I'm just here with a friend."
"A boyfriend?" Jake inquired.
"Nope, not a boyfriend, just a friend." Lorelai answered.
"Well in that case, may I have this dance?" Again, Jake held out his hand and waited for Lorelai to take it.
I guess one dance won't hurt. He is sort of charming, in a kind of cheesy way. I'm here to have fun right? And Luke won't mind, I'm sure he is too busy chatting up that blonde over there to even notice… And Jake is really cute…
Lorelai took Jake's hand, and he led her over to the dance floor.
Meanwhile…"Luke!" Caitlin screeched and ran over to give him a hug.
"Hey Caitlin," Luke said. He looked over at the woman with the dirty blonde hair standing in front of him. Wow. She looks really happy to see me… I'm glad she doesn't hate me… But why would she? She was the one who broke it off with me… Well that isn't entirely truthful, Luke told himself, it was both of us who decided to end it... God, its great to see her again.
"So, you're looking good. Whats new with you? Maybe a new girlfriend?"
"No…" Luke trailed off.
"A boyfriend maybe?" Caitlin giggled.
"No." Luke answered quickly. That comment reminded him of something Lorelai would say. He glanced over and saw her dancing with some guy. The guy looked vaguely familiar, but he was probably just one of Brett's friends that Luke had met one time or another. Luke couldn't even remember his name. But he was dancing with Lorelai. They were standing close, and Lorelai wasn't pushing him away either.
"So what about you Caitlin, do you have a boyfriend?" Luke brought his attention back to Caitlin.
"Not at the moment…" Caitlin was silent for a second. "So, do you want to head over to the bar and get a drink with me?"
Luke glanced at Lorelai again. She was still wrapped tightly in the arms of that guy. "Sure." He answered.
At around the same moment…"So Jake," Lorelai started, "Do you have a girlfriend?" Hey, if he was being forward, so could she.
"Nope, I'm single." Jake answered, guiding her around the dance floor. "So, why doesn't a beautiful girl like you have a boyfriend? Is there something I should know about you?" Jake laughed.
"No," Lorelai glanced over to where Luke was standing, but he was no longer there. "I don't know. I guess I just haven't found the right guy."
"Hmm." Jake thought for a second. "Come with me." He said, grabbing her hand in his.
"Where are we going?" Lorelai asked.
"You will see." Jake said, and led her off the dance floor.

So, what did you think? You know you can tell me really easily. Its as simple as clicking on that tiny little button and leaving me a comment. Good or bad, I would like to hear it. Please review, or I won't continue. And I have two ideas for what I might want to do. I don't want to spoil them, so I will just ask you if you want me to do something just a little conflict-ish, or do you want a major thing to happen? I will only know if you review, so hop to it! Thanks for reading!
