Okay-

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! (gasps for air)

I have been really busy! I DO have a life, okay? (sometimes) And the whole, back-to-the-ol'-grind hasn't been working for me. I hate routines.

Plus, I have had SO much homework, and I actually HAD A LIFE this weekend. And, GASP, I won't be able to update this weekend, cuz I am going to (tehehe) Connecticut!

And, we also, broke the previous/new record for reviews. Okay, by one, BUT STILL.

And, I have a confession...Before writing this; I had NO IDEA how to play Yahtzee. Honestly. Alright? I said it, okay. And frankly, I tried on-line tutorials for about an hour the other night. And I now know why I don't play. Because I sucked. Dice usually don't like me during board games. Like, "I need a three you win the game!... 6!"

You probably all hate me now...but, hey, new chapter, so put down your voodoo dolls and spell books.

"You KNOW..." deep breath, "that I love you, dammit!" A/N: Cue 'Psycho' music)He yelled it, but he said it.

---------

"I love you, too!" she shouts after him.

--------

"Go get her!" A/N: x3)

--------

She sighed and opened the door to reveal, none other than Luke.

They looked at each other for a quick beat, and then Luke suddenly came in through the door. He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her with all he had... They stayed like that for a few more seconds; until Lorelai slipped her arms out from around him, and closed the door.

-----

"Babette, I can't sleep, we need to settle this Yahtzee thing, in the dining room, 5 minutes." He said, and walked away to prepare for the big game ahead.

Rory poked her head outside her room's door to see that Luke followed her advice. She grinned. It was true, when her mom was happy, she was happy.

But not THAT happy.

She certainly wasn't gettin' any tonight, (A/N: Thank GOD! Lol) unless Paris suddenly turned into...

Comparison stops there. She thought.

"I beg to differ Mister President!" Paris yelled from her bed, while waving a hand in the air.

More of her dream-debates. Sometimes, I really wonder what goes on in that head of hers.

"I said that the third party insinuated that I had sexual relations with that man!" Paris yelled again.

"Woah!" Rory said to herself. There's no way she'd be able to sleep with Paris's dirty conversations to herself. Maybe she could walk around or something. That's when the neighboring door-Lane's single room opened.

"Rory? Do you hear that? Someone's being attacked or something!" Lane looked scared.

"No, that's just Paris. She has long, in-depth conversations with herself in her sleep when she's really tired-I forgot."

"I think Kirk was screaming before, too. Well, there's no way that I can sleep with that in the background. Some of it's pretty disturbing."

"Paris' mind is probably already disturbed. Let's go downstairs, maybe we can sleep on the couches or som-...Babette?" She stopped short when she saw Babette try to weasel her way out her door and close it quietly.

At the sound of her name, Babette, naturally jumped slightly. Surprised that people were still awake and that they caught her.

"Hey, dolls! Whatcha doing up at this hour?" she said trying to act innocent.

"We could ask you the same question." Rory put on her 'interrogate suspect' hat.

"Okay, listen." She walked closer, and talked in her 'I've-got-a-secret' voice. "Taylor and I are gonna have a Yahtzee rematch, cuz the first time I kicked his ass."
"Why would you need a rematch, then?" Lane asked.

"Oh Sugah, he thinks I cheated. He's such a man with his ego and all."
"Hey! Can we watch then? Lane and I can't sleep."

"Sure! Just let's not let this get out of hand okay? Come on! I'm gonna go kick Tayla's ass at Yahtzee!"

All three women crept down the dark stairs, and walked into the pitch-black dining hall. When they got close enough, Taylor, sitting at a table with the game already set up, quickly turned on a desk lamp that shone only on the table. (A/N: Seriously, how creepy would that be?)

"Are you ready to lose your title, Babette! Oh, and I see we brought a whole possie with us." meaning Rory and Lane.

"Just shut up and roll first Taylor!" Babette commanded as she sat down at the table for an intense game of Yahtzee.

About 5 minutes later, Taylor was slightly ahead it seemed. But that's when Kirk's butt was all bandaged up in the kitchen, thanks to Sookie.

"Hey, it's a slumber party! What's everyone doing up?" Sookie asked, cheerfully.

"Ow." Was all Kirk could get out as he winced in pain.

"Shhh! It's Babette's roll!" Rory shushed Sookie. Both opponents were so into-it, both girls would allow no one to break their concentration.

"Oh! Yahtzee!" Sookie whispered as she walked over to the table to see what was happening.

"Hey, everyone! Have you seen Kirk? When we fell asleep he was-"

"SHHHH!" Lulu came downstairs in her Dragonfly Inn bathrobe, only to be shushed by Rory, Rory's friend, Sookie, and a table-cloth-wearing Kirk.

"What's everyone doing?" She looked at Taylor and Babette at the table. "Oooo! Yahtzee!" She also joined the crowd of people at the table.

Soon, Jackson and Davy came down, looking for Sookie, Michel came down for his 5 midnight blueberries, and relaxation sessions, Richard and Emily because Emily could have sworn she heard a 'thump', and Miss Patty because she knocked on Babette's door to find that she was gone-and brought Morey with her-and was looking for her.

It was no longer quiet either, but it wasn't loud. There was talking and cheering and encouraging and taunting and everything. The people had made teams and were cheering either or Taylor or Babette on.

Except for Kirk. At the adjacent table he was holding bets, while standing of course.

They thought that everyone as down there. Funny, how they forgot about Luke and Lorelai, just upstairs.

Well, they both descended down the stairs at the end of the last round. Lorelai-clad in Luke's flannel shirt, and Luke in sweats and a tee.

"Seriously, you didn't have to come. You could have saved the time by NOT getting dressed; it's only going to take a seco- Oh my God!" She stopped-short when she came to the dining hall. Luke stopping behind her. "What are you all doing here?"

"It's the final round, and Babette seems to have it in the bag! Place your bets here!" Kirk called out.

"Honey, what's happening? My inn is suddenly gone crazy." She asked her daughter, walking over to her.

"Yahtzee rematch!" she said in a 'duh' tone.

"In the middle of the night?"

"Well, it's not like you were busy or anything!" she winked.

"Well, excuse ME for assuming that when it's past 1 in the morning, everyone would be SLEEPING. I need to remember that I live in Stars Hollow." Rory nodded and left to go cheer on Babette.

"Oh, Lorelai! What took you so long to get down here?" Miss Patty called out, with that 'I-want details' look on her face.

"That's what you get for only wearing my shirt." Luke whispered to her.

"It's the Yahtzee rematch, George!" She playfully hit him on the arm. "Everyone's in bathrobes, sweats with tees or, if you're Kirk-eww, shirt-less! Besides, I am the one who gets to tell Patty who was on top!" she teased.

"Jeez."

"I'll be back soon! Don't worry that manly head of yours." She gave him a peck and walked away.

"Let's say we make this a little more interesting, Babette." The crowd gasped.

"What'd ya have in mind, Taylor?"
"If you win, then I will give you 60 off at any thing at the Market for two days, but if I win...then you have to sell your gnomes and donate the money to the 'Save the Parker House Foundation.' Deal?"

"No way! I knew you were threatening my gnomes! If I win then you have to dress as a gnome and stand in my yard for 2 hours, and if you win then I'll give you Pierpont and you can do whatever you like with him."

Taylor thought for a moment. He was SO going to win this."Deal." he said, fully confident in himself.

2 minutes later...

"I WIN! I WIN! I kicked your ass TWICE in one day!" Babette shouted, along with her side of the table's fans. The opposite side groaned, and Kirk cheered, he made some money tonight!

"How can this be? I demand a recount!"

"We already recounted, rerecounted, and then Kirk did it on his calculator! I WIN! You better clean your gnome costume there, cuz i WON!"

But it's gonna get good. Trust me. I'll try and update as soon as I can.

Not a lot of

You know what to do.
