Chapter Three:
After Lorelai said this. Rory immediately sat up in bed. "Luke!" "Yes Luke" Lorelai said. Rory questioned, "Our Luke, as in flannel, backwards baseball cap, god of coffee, Stars Hollow Luke!". Lorelai sat quietly for a minute, then spoke, "No, Luke from the Bible, yes rory, Stars hollow Luke!" she said sarcastically. Rory looked at her mom puzzled. "How? I mean, Why? What happened?". Lorelai got up and sat next to Rory on her bed. "You know the horse drawn sleigh ride around the town?". "Yeah I do" Rory said. "Well as you know, It's two per sleigh, So I asked Luke to ride with me. So he got in and we were talking about God knows what and before I knew it I was snuggling into his chest like we were Joanie Loves Chachi or something!". Rory sighs. "Kid, I never felt so safe in my life, not with your dad, not with Max, not with anyone but I did when I was….with Luke in that sleigh". Rory looked at her mom and said. "Well if you feel like it might be something you want but if you two date and something happens then our whole town is going to be in trouble." Rory said sweetly. As everything Rory said sunk into Lorelai's head, she sighed. "Let's just get some sleep okay?" They both layed down and went to sleep. In Luke and Jess' room, they were already asleep.
The next morning, Lorelai got up extra early to help set up everything so the people that stayed that night could have a good breakfast before they went home. Sookie was already cooking her breakfast feast. As hour had gone by, and people were starting to sit down in the dingin room for breakfast. Rory, Dean, Luke and Jess were sitting at one table. Rory wondered why because Dean and Jess absolutely hated each other. There was an extra seat between Rory and Luke, so Rory saved it for Lorelai. After the food was served, she sat down in between them . Luke looked at her and grinned. She smiled back, "Good Morning, Burger Boy". She felt so safe and comfortable next to him. "Good Morning" He said softly back to her. They all started eating. Rory, Dean, Jess, Lorelai, and Luke were all quiet, when Lorelai felt a hand touch her thigh. She looked at Rory and then at Luke and smiled. After a minute she reached her hand down and interlocked her fingers together with Luke's. This went on until everyone was done eating. All the people went to their rooms to gather their stuff and they all got ready to go home.
Lorelai was sitting at her desk, checking people out. Luke waited for everyone to leave until he checked out. "Hey", he said as he walked to the desk. "Hey", she said smiling. "Lorelai, I …can we go to dinner sometime? Or whatever you want to do? A movie? I can be a movie person." Lorelai smirked. "Are you asking me out?". He smiled and leaned over and kissed her cheek softly. "maybe", he whispered.
