Gilmore Girls
Oh god, I'm so sorry.
"Okay what can I get you two tonight?" I asked Lorelai and Rory.
"Hey I thought you were going out tonight?"
"I am in about an hour or so."
"Rory and I have gone on a baboon diet."
"A baboon diet," I asked as if they were insane.
"Yep, we eat very small portions of food and banana's."
"You have no idea what a baboon eats do you?" Rory asked her mom.
"Okay hold on a second."
I walked behind the counter, used the tongs to grab to cinnamon buns, and put them on plates. I set them down at their table.
"You two are the last people on earth who need to be on a diet so here."
"You're a goddess!"
"We will build a statue of you and worship it!"
"Don't your grandparents feed you?" I asked knowing they came from Friday night dinner.
"Yes but tonight all they had was some gross goose or something so we barely ate."
"Dallas, mom's on the phone," Jess called from across the counter.
"I'm busy."
Jess looked around the diner where there was only the Gilmore's and Kirk. Uncle Luke was in the kitchen making Kirk's very unique dinner. He motioned to the phone again.
"Jess, I don't want to talk to her."
"If you do it now you won't have to do it again for like two months."
"You know a relationship with your mother is a very important thing to have and cherish," Kirk stated.
"Well, of course he thinks so his mother supports him," Lorelai whispered.
"Listen Jess; tell her I call her back. I have to go get ready."
I took off my apron, put my pad and pen down, and went upstairs. I chose to wear my Metallica T-shirt because it's fitted but it also covers me… well unless I reach for something then you can see some stomach. I kept on the jeans I was wearing because they're my favorite pair and they're the most comfortable. I was in the bathroom trying to figure out if I should put my hair up or down when Jess came in behind me.
"She has a new boyfriend."
"Who? Mom? Yeah, I figured. What's his name?"
"T.J. sounds like a real moron too."
"Great, is that why she called to tell us about him?"
"She wants to know how you're fitting in and stuff like that."
"What did you tell her?"
"I said you were doing fine and that you had a date tonight. She was very excited about that…What the hell are you doing?" He asked upon seeing him put my hair up and then take it back down.
"First of all it's not a date we're just hanging out and second of all I'm trying to decide if I should put my hair in a ponytail or not."
"Well since you're just friends," Said with pure sarcasm, "Put it up."
I rolled my eyes at him but took his advice anyway.
"Okay I have customers down stairs and no server's hello?" Luke yelled into the apartment.
"Jess' fault I'm done now!"
Jess gave me a sarcastic smile and went down stairs. I followed him down about ten minutes later.
"Alright, I'm leaving. I'll be back later."
"Isn't he picking you up?" Jess asked.
"Picking me up to walk down two streets? No, Jess. I'm meeting him there."
"Huh…."
I sighed and walked out the door. When I got to the movie theater he was standing outside waiting and smiling.
"Hey."
"Hey I got the tickets. The only thing playing is some weird movie Devour."
"Something tells me that's not very Star's Hollow-ish."
"Well, Kirk isn't running it tonight his mother is and apparently she has a dark side."
I laughed and walked inside with him. We bought some popcorn and sodas and sat in the front. It didn't really surprise me that no one else was there. I mean half the town is asleep by 8:30 except for what five teenagers? The movie started and I must say the lead actor, Jensen Ackles, is gorgeous!
"Okay is it just me or is this movie disgusting?" I asked Dean within the first ten minutes.
"That's just wrong," Dean said watching the scene where the guy is taking out an animals organs.
During the movie several parts caused me to turn away because it was so gross. Dean laughed playfully at me most of the time but even at some parts he had to look away. Afterwards we walked out and just looked at each other.
"That was by far one of the weirdest movies I've ever seen." I stated as we walked back to the diner.
"It had no point and it was confusing." Dean added.
When we got to the diner all the lights were turned off so I assumed Jess was either out with Rory or upstairs reading and Uncle Luke was either watching his mini TV in the storage room or upstairs cleaning.
"I had a lot of fun tonight Dallas," Dean's voice broke my train of thought.
"Yeah, I did too. We should hang out more often."
"I would like that."
We were just standing there looking at each other. He smiled and I laughed lightly. Then I did by far the stupidest thing on earth. I leaned up and kissed him and not just one of those fast sweet kisses. I kissed him for a good 40 seconds then I realized what I was doing. I pulled away quickly.
"Oh god, I'm so sorry. I know you just wanted to hang out as friends and I totally screwed that up. Jesus, I can't believe I did that. I'm so sorry. I'm going to go now."
Before he could say anything I whipped out my keys and ran inside. I went up the stairs without looking back. Before I went inside the apartment I tried to think of what to tell Jess. I couldn't deal with him right now so I went back downstairs and saw Uncle Luke in the storage room.
"Hey Uncle Luke, can I spend the night at the Rory's?"
"Yeah sure, how was the movie?"
"Horrible."
"Sounds about right, remember you have work tomorrow at 9."
"I know I'll be here. Thanks Uncle Luke bye."
"It's just Luke!"
I smiled as I walked out the door. I got to the Gilmore's and figured since it was only 11 I could still knock. Lorelai came to the door and smiled when she saw me.
"Hey Dallas, what are you doing here?"
"Hey, I came to talk to you guys."
"Come on in. Rory! Dallas is here!"
Rory came out of her bedroom and into the living room. We all sat down on the couch.
"I thought you were going to call me afterwards."
"I did a really stupid thing and I couldn't deal with Jess so I came here instead."
"Let me stop you real fast does Luke know you're here?" Lorelai asked switching into parent mood.
"Yeah, I told him."
"Okay continue, oh wait are we going to need ice cream?"
"I think so…"
"I'll get it don't start without me."
She got up and ran into the kitchen. She came back with what looked like a gallon of ice cream and three spoons.
"Okay, go ahead."
"I kissed him."
"I'm failing to see a bad part."
"Yeah, if I remember correctly he was pretty good at that." Rory laughed.
"Yes but this whole night was just about me being his friend! He didn't even give me any sign that he wanted to kiss me. We were standing outside the diner and we said we had fun and we should hang out again some time and then he smiled…"
"Aw there's the clincher, a guy's smile will get you every time." Lorelai said digging into the ice cream.
"Yep, then I kissed him then…I apologized and I might have cursed or said Jesus or something. Oh god it was horrible."
"Well, did he kiss back?"
"I don't think I even gave him a chance I pulled away after about forty seconds then started rambling then ran inside. I didn't even give him time to react."
Lorelai shoved the ice cream towards me and Rory handed me the phone.
"Speed dial seven, order a large pizza with everything on it. I'll go get the candy."
