Small pointless but fluffy. If you know where the quote is from you get… well the satisfaction of knowing where it came from. Plus a prize I've yet to think of.

THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE STORY…

- set on Halloween on Rory's first year at Yale, Lorelai's not dating anyone, Luke went on the cruise but instead of getting married the broke up when Nicole cheated with one of the cruise workers-


.o0 The Diner 0o.

"What are you doing here?" Luke frowned from the counter, he was counting receipts. The Diner was dead due to the fact that everybody was at their houses or out with their kids trick-or-treating.

"That attitude is the reason why the Dinner is booming right now" Lorelai, dressed as a clown, said while taking a seat on a stool in front of Luke.

"I meant, why aren't you out trick-or-treating with the rest of the loons out there"

"Because I'm lonely. Rory bailed on me, she's over at Yale handing out candy to drunken college boys"

"That still doesn't answer my 'why aren't you out there' question. I mean, this is like the only 'holiday' made specifically for candy, I'd thought you'll be crazy for it"

"I can't go trick-or-treating alone! That's embarrassing!" Lorelai scoffed.

"Ok" Luke lifted his hands in surrender. "My own fault for asking" he returned to his receipts.

"I know! Why don't you go trick-or-treating with me!" she smiled a little bit.

"No"

"Well, put on a costume for my amusement at least" puppy eyes.

"I am wearing a costume" he said, eyes on his receipts.

"No your not" Lorelai scoffed after giving him a once over.

"Yes, I'm in my burger boy costume" he stated flatly. Lorelai snorted before moving on.

"Can I at least get some coffee to de-sadden me?"

"I don't think that's a real word" he narrow his eyes at her but still went to get her coffee. "Besides 'Sad clowns on a lonely day only smile when the weather is nice'…" Lorelai smirked, Luke was definitely trying to cheer her up he knew how hard it was for her to have Rory so far away. "… and considering it just started raining I doubt you'll cheer up" he placed the mug in front of her.

"Dork" she mumbled before drinking her coffee. "This is good, but not good enough to cheer me up"

"Told you…" he smirked and reached for something under the counter. "Here" he handed Lorelai a Hershey's bar, she shrieked and smiled. "Will you look at that, clowns do smile even though it's raining"

"That's a stupid phrase" Lorelai said with a mouth filled with chocolate.

"That it is" Luke nodded. Silence fell and Lorelai devoured the chocolate.

"Do you have another one?" Lorelai asked after it was all gone.

"You already ate it?" Luke had a grossed out expression.

"Yeah, I would've asked if you wanted some but I already knew the answer to that. So… got another one?" she shot him her sad puppy eyes.

"Sorry it was the only one"

"How about coffee?" she smiled.

"Tell you what, I'll lock up, you go wait upstairs, and we'll have a couple of beers, that'll cheer you up for sure"

"Seriously?" her smile grew a little more.

"Yup"

"Hurry up burger boy!" with that clown Lorelai dashed behind the curtain and upstairs.


You've been LoVeLuKe-ized.

Told you it was pointless fluff.

Now tell me if you knew where the 'Sad clowns…' thing came from, and if you want me to do one more chapter. If you do it'll probably be 1 or 2 more, and most definitely turn into an M, but that's only if you want more.

New Diferent Start and Oh Baby chapter to be uploaded by the end of the day (if fanfiction would let me upload them!)

Tell what you thunk.
