Author's Greeting- Hi guys. So I see you all finally see how evil I am. LukeNlorelaifan was the first to figure that out.
Franala- There is no point if it's not LL. And you are really smart, I'll but save that information for the story!
epona9009- I might do two in one day, but for me to do that you have to review.
Disclaimer- I own Mike, lots of clothes and a 'No Brothers Allowed' sign I got for my birthday. So, I have nothing you'd want 'cause why would you want any of that?
Okay, I'm done rambling. On with the story!
The next day, Luke went to the Dragonfly for lunch like promised. When he got there a man at the front desk told Luke to wait for Lorelai at a table. After being showed to a table, Lorelai came shortly after.
"Sorry I'm late."
"It's okay. I just got here."
"I love this job," Lorelai said while trying not to crack up. "This man came here for a convention, but he did not specify what the convention was for over the phone. So when he got here he just burst into the room singing. Instead of just saying what name his reservation was under when Michel asked him, he sang it. Michel got really annoyed and said he was going to hit him if he didn't stop singing, but he kept singing. Well, they kept fighting for awhile with me siting there thinking it's funny 'cause I knew Michel wouldn't do anything when like 20 other men came in singing. Apparently it was Broadway Musical convention," that was all she could take before she burst out laughing.
God I love that laugh! And that smile!
"Come on, that was funny stuff," Lorelai said after she finally stopped laughing.
"Yeah, I know, I was just… looking at the menu."
"Ookkayy. I think I'm going to get the pot roast and coffee," she said to the waiter.
"I'll just have a Cesar Salad."
"You can't have just that," the waiter and Lorelai said at the same time.
"I can't? Why not?"
"Sookie will either take it as an insult or she'll give you a salad with a prime rib on the side. Order something with the salad."
"Fine, I'll have lasagna with a Cesar Salad and ice tea. Better?"
"Much."
When the waiter finish taking their order he left taking their banter with him leaving only awkward silence. Lorelai finally decided to break the silence.
"So, I wanted to talk to you about Mike."
"Okay…"
"I know you said you were okay with it, and I just wanted to say thanks. You see his brother died last year, and told me why he wanted you to be his best man he 'cause you were always there for him and you're a really good friend and I knew what he meant. I mean you were one of my best friends 8 years, and for all 8 years you were always there…It just sounded really important to him and I didn't want to get in the way of you two…"
God, she makes it's really hard to even think about saying no. "I know,and this is the last time I'm saying this" 'cause if someone asks me one more time I don't think I can lie about it again "I'm fine with it," he said making sure to enunciate.
"Okay. Good. Just checking."
And making this harder for me.
"So how'd you two meet," changing the subject.
"Well, actually we work together."
"Oh yeah. Mike said something about hotel consultant."
"Yeah. A man named Mike Armstrong wanted to either invest in the Inn or buy and I'd travel and be a consultant. I didn't want to sell the Inn so he made an investment of 30,000 so he wouldn't have an majoring share and I could pay you back."
"You really knew what you were doing," Luke said impressed.
"Yes, well I am the business portion of the company and a I teach it, so I should."
"So, your boss and your fiancé have the same first name?"
"Yeah. It's very confusing, but I call my Mike Dave. And well, we don't talk to him much while we're together, but we call Mike Armstrong Lance. Hetakes it more as a compliment than as a joke. Anyway, Mike and I met three years ago. A year later he asked me out, I said 'What the heck' and the rest is history."
It kind of hurt Luke to hear her say 'my Mike', but he bounced back fast.
"Why Dave?"
"Well, I couldn't think of a pop culture reference that anyone would get including and that's no fun. So we played 'the first name that comes to mind' game, but the first name to mind was Gertie. He didn't like that name of course. So, we played 'the first boy's name that comes to mind' game which would have worked a lot better if I hadn't picked the name Eliot. We then proceeded to debate whether or not Eliot was a girl or boy's name. So then we comprised and we came up with Dave since his middle name is David. Kinda boring, but what can you do?"
"How did you get from Gertie to Eliot? Wait. Hold on. How did you get Gertie in the first place?"
"I was watching ET the night before."
"You're very weird."
"Thank you for noticing."
Hi! Okay I could have made it longer, but I liked that ending so I didn't. Might update today. Thinking about making one where they start planning the wedding and Emily shows up, but I haven't decided yet. Please review! Thanks in advanced!
