She thought that opening up to someone as much as she did might have caused a lot of unrealised feelings to come out. When they didn't she was more than a little shocked and decided that it was because she knew they were there she just chose to ignore them. Jess had decided to go home shortly after Lorelais confession and with confirmation from Lorelai that she would call soon. It was the best she had felt in ages and was even better when she remembered that it was Sookies day to visit. She let Libby stay in bed for as long as possible, or until she woke up and decided to make her self breakfast. Ultimately ending in the destruction of two plates, a frying pan and a spatula. With Libby awake and blissfully unaware that Sookie was making a visit she couldn't help but keep the smile off her face that had been missing for to long.

It was almost twelve when the buzzer for the apartment grabbed Libby's attention away from the TV she was staring intently at. She was the type of child who had to be aware of everything that was happening, just like her mom. Lorelai was sitting in the kitchen calmly drinking her 4th cup of coffee slow day when Libby came skidding into the kitchen coming to a halt in front of her mother, almost colliding with her knees, which were about Libby's head height.

Lorelai looked down with bemusement on her face and placed her coffee mug back on the table. "What is it baby girl did you hear something?" she knew exactly what Libby was reacting to but thought that for her own amusement she would see how long it took Libby to lose her patients. "Door!" shouted Libby trying to get her mothers attention.

"I didn't hear anything Hun…..are you sure that it was the door?" Lorelai was now full on smiling looking down at Libby as she hopelessly tried to pull Lorelai towards the front door.

"MOMMY! Door" Libby had officially lost her patients and was standing almost out of the kitchen with her arms folded in front of her chest giving the best pout a two year old could give.

"ok ok ok I believe you lets see who it is shall we?" she walked over to where Libby was standing and picked her up, it didn't take long for her daughter to relax into her embrace showing her forgiveness towards her mother. Placing a series of small kisses on her cheek Lorelai headed towards the door.

Pressing the buzzer for the door down stairs without checking who it was she stood back a little watching Libby excitedly staring at the front door almost as if it was going to explode. It wasn't long before there was a short knock on the door and Libby spun her head around to look at Lorelai and then fixed her gaze back to the door and began to move in Lorelais grasp working as fast she could to free herself. Lorelai moved to the door and opened it swinging it wide to show her red headed best friend and her two children.

"OOKIE!" Libby exclaimed as she saw who was waiting behind the door. She successfully jumped out of Lorelai's arms and ran straight towards Sookie looking for her usual greeting.

"Hey muffin" Sookie practically shouted as she bent down to embrace Libby in a tight hug almost ignoring Lorelai. "You have grown again! I swear if you keep growing at this rate your not going to fit thought the door" Libby let out a series of loud uncontrollable giggles at her aunt Sookie's silliness and soon realised that she had more visitors in the shape of Davey and Martha. Placing Libby back down Sookie moved through the front door and approached Lorelai and was almost shocked to see the huge smile on her face. Sookie knew that she was better after what had happened before Libby was born but some part of her had been last forever and Sookie didn't think that it would ever come back. Although today there was the tell tail smile on Lorelai's face that had definitely been missing from the last two years.

Once everyone was greeted and Libby had sufficiently calmed down Libby, Davey and Martha retreated to Libby's room to let the 'grown ups' talk. After the usual gossip had been exchanged and Lorelai was informed of the entire goings on in Stars Hollow she brought up the one subject that hadn't been spoken about in years. "How's Luke?" The conversation had gone quiet and it was probably the last thing Sookie was expecting, judging by her reaction to the question which was her violently chocking on her coffee.

Lorelai knew she had taken Sookie by surprise mainly due to the fact that she was now staring at her as though she had a carrot growing out the side of her head. "Well I just wondered how he was after three years. I don't think we have even mentioned him." Lorelai felt like a school girl who had just brought up the wrong conversation topic at the dinner table and was now looking directly down averting Sookie's bemused gaze.

"I just…..didn't think that you wanted to talk about him….I mean after what happened and how good you're doing its just strange that you should bring it up now."

Sookie had now switched into full suspicious mode and knew there was something Lorelai wasn't telling her.

Lorelai was privately waging a battle with herself. Should she tell Sookie about Jess and what had happened? Should she go back to Stars Hollow after everything that's happened? Could she really see Luke again? Finally all of the questions that had been running around her head erupted in a not so coherent rant.

"I don't know what to do, I want Libby to know Luke I mean he has a right, he's her dad and what about Rory? Libby's got a big sister who's amazing and a successful journalist …. Why is it so hard? Why am I so scared? It shouldn't be like this, I'm just afraid that if I go back he won't want to see me….or Libby and I don't think I could handle that again. But after what Jess said…..he was right….My God I never thought I would say that….but I shouldn't be the one who decided if Luke sees Libby. After all I do still love him and I think he loves me….but why would he say he never wanted to see me again. What is he going to think if he finds out that I tired to kill myself?"

If Sookie hadn't stopped her through utter confusion she would have gone on until she had literally passed out from exhaustion. "WHOA…..ok to start with breath….calm down and sit down….second you saw Jess?...third where the hell did all of this come from?"

It took nearly four hours until Sookie was finally clear on all of the details of Jess's visit, and to say she was more than slightly shocked would have been an understatement. She knew what she was about to ask would get one of two reactions. Lorelai could say yes and be extremely happy that Sookie had asked her or she would just straight out laugh in her face.

"Ok so I have an idea and I don't know what you're going to say! And I didn't want to ask you because I didn't think you would be ready for something like this and it's a big deal….and your doing so much better and it would be really nice……well do you want to come to Daveys birthday party?" it was like asking so out on a date, she didn't think she could be more nervous if she tried, she took in a deep breath and held it until she heard Lorelais answer.
