DISCLAIMER: I still own nothing! I wish I did, but I don't!

A/N: Hey! Thank you for all the great reviews, normally I am never able to finish a story, but now that I'm hearing your input, it really helps! And yes I do realize how cheesy that sounded. DON'T MOCK! THIS IS A MAYBE CHAPTER! If you guys don't like it, tell me and I'll make a new one!

FYI:

Rory's talking to Lorelai now. After a couple of days she gave in. She absolutely refuses to speak to Christopher and she has yet to here from Luke.

Chapter 2:

Rory was on the phone talking to Lorelai when there was a knock on her door (A/N: She is still living at her and Logan's apartment)

"Hey, mom, there's someone at the door. Can I call you back later?" Rory asked.

"Sure, just leave your poor, heartbroken mommy to fend for herself. I get it. You're going to choose John Doe over me." Lorelai said in mock hurt.

"Well, of course." Rory said.

"I see where I stand."

"Bye!" Rory said.

Rory hung up the phone and ran to the door. She opened it.

"Luke!" Rory whispered stunned.

"Hi Rory, can I come in?" Luke asked, obviously a little uncomfortable.

Rory nodded, and Luke entered the apartment.

"Nice place." Luke said.

"Thanks." Rory said. "Um…Luke, why are you here?"

"I need your help." Luke said.

"How could you possibly expect me to help you? You hurt my mother and you hurt me! I mean this is the first night that mom has been able to stay in her house alone. I have had to be in Stars Hollow comforting her for her to fall asleep! Do you know how hard it is for me to see her like this? She really loves you Luke! Why can't you just forgive her! I'm mad that she slept with Chris too, but…"

Luke cut her off. "I want to ask Lorelai to marry me!"

"WHAT!" Rory yelled.

"I do forgive your mom. It took me a while to get to that point, but I think that's understandable." Luke reasoned. "But, I love your mom too much to let her go again. So I came here to ask for your blessing and your help to ask Lorelai to marry me."

"I need to sit down." Rory said pacing the room.

"Listen, I know this is a lot to take in, but I never got my moment. Sure, her proposing was one of the greatest moments in my life, but when I think about it, it was all wrong." Luke explained. "Your mom was upset when she asked me, it was my job, and most importantly, you weren't there to celebrate with us. I know that was hard for your mom, and it was hard for me, too." Luke said.

"Why now? Why do you want to marry mom now, and you didn't before?"

"I have always wanted to be with Lorelai and you know that. It' just that things got so complicated with April and everything." Luke defended.

"Yeah, but they didn't have to be that complicated." Rory said.

"Yeah, you're right. But when I focus on something, all of my attention goes to that, and I didn't realize how much I was hurting the people I loved until Lorelai made me realize it. As much as I hate to admit it, I basically drove Lorelai into bed with Christopher. I hate that I did that to her. But, I think I've gotten everything under control with Anna and April. I have joint custody of April. Everything's been great with Anna and April, except that I'm missing the other half of my family…you and Lorelai. I need you guys." Luke said so desperately.

Rory was now holding back tears. She walked up to Luke and gave him a hug.

"I think that's the most I've ever heard you talk." Rory said playfully.

Luke chuckled, still returning the hug.

"So what do you say?" Luke asked with a hint of a smile.

"Count me in" Rory said with a smile that Luke gladly returned.

A/N: Okay, so I know it's kind of short but this was just an appetizer, if you will, for the next chapters…I think. I know Luke wanting to still marry Lorelai is kind of shocking and it's probably because I'm still in denial. Plus, it's my story and I can do what I want! JK! I need you guys to review…be gentle.

Thanks,

Cleopatra (get it…Queen of denial…LOL I crack myself up)

P.S. MegLT, I'm sorry if you hate this chapter! I know you said that my last chapters sounded like they could actually happen and this one, as much as I hate to admit it, doesn't. Please don't hate me! Love you!
