AN: It has come to my attention that the last chapter was a little hard to read. In light of this I will be separating the dialogue so it will look a little different. The pairing on Rory will either be Jess or Dean so sorry to all the Tristan and Logan fans out there. Thanks for all the reviews.
Disclaimer: On the advice of my lawyer I maintain that I have never heard of the show Gilmore Girls
Chapter 2: A One Time Thing
During her lunch break the next day Lorelai saw Luke struggling to carry a lot of food out of the market.
"Need help?" Lorelai asked picking up some of the dropped food.
"No, I'm just re-painting the sidewalk" Luke said sarcastically as he continued to walk to the diner.
"Why are you, Luke Danes, buying Frosted Flakes?" Lorelai asked wondering what Luke was up to.
"My nephew is coming to live with me" Luke said gruffly as he started setting up the inflatable bed.
"So you're giving him a raft?" Lorelai asked in false confusion.
"It's a bed for the time being I haven't been able to buy him a cot or mattress yet" Luke said kind of angry. In all truth he was happy that he was talking to her.
"So why is he coming here?" Lorelai asked.
"Why do you care?" Luke asked right back at her.
"I want to know more about the mysterious Luke Danes" Lorelai said in her sexy voice.
"Well his mom is a flake and he needs a change of scenery" Luke said simply and he continued to inflate the mattress.
"Are you sure that you can handle having a kid here?" Lorelai asked. 'Luke doesn't know a thing about raising kids' Lorelai thought.
"First of all he's 17, second of all I think I can handle him" Luke said as he finished blowing up the mattress.
"Well all right but I'll hope for you that he's not Hannibal, Fredo, or any villain from a Stanly Kubrick movie" Lorelai said smiling.
'I love it when she smiles' Luke thought to himself. "Well thanks, just for that I won't spread any lies about you to him" Luke said.
They stood there in silence for a about a minute "I was wondering why didn't you change Rory's last name to Medina too?" Luke asked. Ever since the wedding he wondered why Rory stayed a Gilmore.
"I guess because we didn't want anybody to think that Rory was getting special treatment at Chilton because of Max" Lorelai said.
"I can see that, well I have to go and buy some sheets for this bed" Luke said getting up off the floor.
"That's good, I have to get back to work but I'll talk to you later" Lorelai said happily as she left the diner.
'I love her so much but she'll never know it' Luke thought sadly before going back to setting up the room for Jess.
Later that night Lorelai was working late so Rory was home alone with Max. It was six and Lorelai wouldn't be back until eleven so they had sometime to kill.
Rory was all dressed up she was going to go out and meet Dean for a little bit since all of her homework was finished.
"I'm going out with Dean for a little bit, I'll be back at eight" Rory said to Max as she started to leave.
"Hold on a minute Rory" Max said looking up from his papers.
"Yeah, what is it?" Rory asked confused, she usually just said she was going out and no questions were asked.
"I don't think you should go out tonight" Max said standing up and moving closer to Rory.
"Why is that?" Rory asked a little intimidated. She had never seen Max act like this before so she wasn't sure how to respond.
"It's a school night and I don't want you going around with some boy" Max said with no emotion in his voice.
Rory couldn't believe this her mom had never done this to her. Then Rory remembered the argument where Max said he felt that he should have some control over Rory.
"Fine, I'll stay in tonight" Rory said defeated.
"Good, you can go out on the weekend" Max said proud that he had shown his dominance over her.
Rory sighed and went back to her room to call Dean and tell him that she had to cancel their date tonight.
"Hey, Dean it's Rory" Rory said as she sat down on her bed.
"Hey Rory are you ready for our date tonight?" Dean asked excited about the date in a little while.
"I actually have to cancel tonight Dean" Rory said sadly.
"Why do you have to cancel?" Dean asked a little confused and angry about the fact that she was canceling.
Rory sighed she knew that Dean would be angry "My dad is making me stay in tonight" Rory said sadly.
"Why is he doing that?" Dean asked very annoyed about the fact that he couldn't see his girlfriend tonight.
"I think it's some kind of thing where he thinks that he has to have some control over me" Rory said as she went over to her computer to check the news.
"Why didn't you just call your mom and ask her?" Dean asked hoping that he may still be able to see her tonight.
"It wouldn't do any good, my dad feels like he has to have some control in my life so if I give into him now he'll slowly ease up on me" Rory explained.
"I guess that makes sense" Dean said sadly.
"Don't worry we'll go on a date this weekend" Rory said trying to lift his sprits.
"Fine, I'll talk to you late just remember that I love you" Dean said.
"I love you too" Rory said as they both hung up the phone for the night. 'I wish I could have gone out tonight but this is just a one time thing' Rory thought to herself as she once again looked over her article for the paper.
