Lorelai's POV
"Yes."
As soon as the word passed my lips, Luke leaned down and kissed me with more love and passion then we had shared in months. Only all to soon Luke pulled away ending the kiss, and as my eye's fluttered open all I saw was his loving smile and a light in his eye's that had been missing for far too long while his palm still held my cheek. All I could do was stare into his eye's and smile back as a sense of being complete washed over me. Taking a breath I steeped out of Luke's hold, ready to sit and talk everything over with him; only to have Luke put a manila envelope in my hands. "I met with a lawyer two weeks ago, these are the custody papers I was telling you about." Luke stated as he rubbed the back of his neck. "Before we get into the Anna and April problems, we have other things we need to discuss." I said tossing the envelope onto my desk with a sigh. "Last week I went through the house boxing up whatever you had left, and do you know what I found?" I asked turning to face Luke who had sat on my couch. "You were boxing up my things?" Luke asked sadly as he hung his head. "Well actually it was kind of hard to box up what was not there." I stated angrily placing my hands on my hips and starring him down. "What's that supposed to mean?" Luke asked confused as his head popped up. "All I found was three flannel shirts, two pairs of jeans, a disposable razor, and a travel stick of deodorant!" I exclaimed narrowing my eye's at him. "Luke you don't live there. You kept your apartment. You watch TV, eat the food, and keep basic's for when you spend the night." I explained sadly as I leaned on the edge of my desk.
"We can fix this Lorelai, every time I come over I can bring a box full of stuff, and we can go on date's again. "Luke stated getting excited. "I think we have the beginning of a good plan, if we just focus on communicating better we will definitely get there." I said with a smile as I sat next to Luke on the couch. " Now can I tell you about April?" Luke asked quietly. "Please do." I said with a grin taking his hand and giving it a squeeze. "She loves science, and books, and swimming. She likes baseball, but only because she likes figuring out the players statistics." Luke said becoming more and more animated as he talked. I couldn't help it, I just sat there smiling at him, watching him talk about his daughter. "What?" Luke asked as he caught me starring at him. "Your a wonderful dad." I said smiling. "You think so?" Luke asked worriedly. "I know so, after all you have been the closest thing to a father Rory's had and look how she turned out." I stated giving his hand a squeeze. We sat there just starring at each other slowly leaning together about to kiss, when the door was opened and Mia walked in smiling like the cat that got the cream. "Now that the two of you have finally figured things out, why don't the two of you spend the rest of the day together." Mia stated placing her hands on her hips.
We walked around the town square holding hands and just catching up. Luke took me to Sniffy's for dinner that night, and we had fun talking to Maisie and Buddy. Then when we got back to my house, we sat in the kitchen setting up a time for Luke to bring over his first box from the apartment. By the time night had fallen, we were well on our way to a better place; although Luke was adamant that he go back to the apartment for the night. Once he had climbed into his truck and left, I was on the phone with Rory. Rory and I ended up talking well into the night as we discussed everything under the sun, until finally we both fell asleep in the middle of a serious debate between cereal flavors.
