If One of Us Had Been a Frog

Chapter Eleven: Virgin

Disclaimer: Duh.

Summary: Luke apologizes.

A/N: Incase you haven't noticed, I'm not doing this in order. Where's the fun in that anyway?

Please review.

He took a deep breathe before knocking on the large wooden door. He looked around the busy halls as he waited for someone to answer. Students were walking past him. Some had coffee. Some had books. He couldn't help but notice how fast the kids there walked. And they had a lot of books. They drank a lot of coffee, too. College is unhealthy. Maybe he should get Rory one of those roller backpacks. It'd be so much better for her back.

After a few minutes, nobody had answered, so he knocked again.

"Keep your pants on!" He heard someone yell from the other side. He hoped he had the right room. He looked down at the tiny piece of paper he had brought with him, and checked the room number. Yep. It was right.

Suddenly the door opened. "Jeez, you know, I was just trying to clip my toenails and you decide to start pounding on my door at..." She stopped to check her watch. "11 o'clock! Who are you anyway?" She asked.

"I'm-" He began, but she interrupted him.

"If you're going to try to sell me something I swear I will go get my super pointy shoes and kick you in the you know where... I hate when people come and interrupt me early in the morning to try to sell me some useless crap! What do you think Paid Programming is for? I can get enough useless crap from channel 2... or 5, or 7, or 12, or any freaking channel I want. I don't need guys like you, with your fancy vacuum cleaners or your pasta makers to come knocking on my door, trying to sell me stuff like that cuz I'm not interested, pal!"

"Uh... Is Rory home?" He asked, completely shocked.

"Oh, no, she went to the library a couple hours ago." Paris said, calmed down.

"Oh... Uh... Okay..."

"I'll tell her you stopped by?" Paris questioned.

"Uh... yeah, sure thanks..."

"And... who are you again?" Paris again.

"Luke. My name's Luke."

"Okay, I'll tell her you came by." She said, before closing the door.

Luke sighed, and turned around to head back towards his car.

He was almost there when he heard someone calling his name.

"Luke?"

He turned around. "Rory?"

"Hey, what are you doing here?"

"Uh... Oh, well, I brought you these brownies." He told her, handing her the plate.

"Brownies? Aww, thanks Luke." Rory told him.

"And coffee." Luke told her, handing her the to-go cup.

"You're a prince." Rory told him, taking the coffee and taking a sip. "Mmm... I'm missed this. The coffee here isn't half as good."

"Yeah, well, I figured you'd be going through withdrawal... I mean, if you're anything like your mother..."

Rory smiled. "So, you came all this way to feed me?" She asked. "I hope Mom knows what she's got." Rory commented.

Luke smiled. "Actually, I wanted to apologize, too... for the other night... I shouldn't have acted like that... I just-"

"I know. It's Okay." Rory told him.

"I'm really sorry." He told her.

"I know, Luke. Don't worry about it." She told him.

"I'll apologize to Dean, too."

"You don't have to."

"I want to." Luke told her.

"Okay." She smiled. "Thanks."

"And hey, maybe we can do it again sometime?" Luke asked.

Rory looked at him skeptically.

"Your Mom dusted off the Twister yesterday." He told her.

Rory smiled. "I'll think about it." She told him.

"Good." He nodded.

"Good." Rory repeated.

"So, I better get going." Luke told her.

"Yeah, I have a paper to write anyway."

"Okay, we'll I'll see you this weekend, maybe?" He asked.

"Probably." Rory told him.

"Bye."

"Bye." Rory watched him leave, and when he pulled out of the parking lot, she grabbed her phone and dialed her mother's number.

"He just come by?" Lorelai answered the phone.

"Yep, you were right. He apologized." Rory informed him.

"I knew he would." Lorelai told her, smiling. "He felt horrible." She told her daughter.

"You've got yourself a good man, Mom." Rory smiled.

"I know. I think I'll keep him."

Sorry this has taken me so long. I just sort of forgot about this story, and forgot that I hadn't updated in a while... I'll try to be better.

Reviews motivate me:)

I'm going to try to post Fades to Black tonight... Look out for it... Maybe not, but I hope so.

Did you guys hear that Dan Palladino is going to play one of the troubadours in next week's episodes. I read in Ask Ausiello that he sings some song about a beaver biting his toe or something? Lol... I know it has something to do with a beaver... Thought it was cool, though.

Please review.
