Luke sees Lorelai then runs downstairs.
"Lorelai!" He yells and jumps out of bed after her.
"GO to hell Luke!" She says and walks faster.
"Lorelai... Please..." he begs.
Lorelai whips around and faces him with tears streaming down her face.
"Go back to your girlfriend! I hate you Luke Danes, how could you do this to me! I thought you loved me!"
"I do love you!"
"You wouldn't have been up there screwing your ex girlfriend if you really love me. Take your stupid ring and go the hell!"
She yanks the ring off her fingre and throws it at him, and runs home in tears.
Luke goes upstairs.
"I'm so sorry, Julia."
"Luke, I can't believe I just helped you cheat on your girlfriend. I am so sorry." She feels awful.
"I don't know why I did this, I just didn't...I didn't want to ...I don't know".
"Maybe it would be better if I just left." She gets up and begins to get dressed.
Meanwhile at Lorelai's house.
Lorelai slams the door and runs to her bedroom, slamming that door too. She crashes on her bed and starts sobbing.
Paulanka comes up on the bed and licks Lorelais hand. Lorelai cuddles with Paulanka while still crying, she can't believe he would do this to her.
Back to Luke's apartment.
Julia is still getting dressed.
"I'm sorry...but I still do have feelings for you." Luke tells Julia as they both finish getting dressed.
"Its okay Luke and I still have feelings for you too. SO what does this mean you want to do, because you really need to decide." She says as the sit down and starts to talk.
"All of my old feelings came back for you...but I do love that crazy lady that walked in here."
"I understand that. I just want you to know that I still love you, very much." She gives him a little peck on the lips.
Luke doesn't kiss her back.
"Julia, I still love you, but it's a high school love thing, I will always love Lorelai, she means the world to me, her and her daughter Rory... So...I don't know."
She backs away.
"It's alright, I understand Luke, and really I do. Do you think she is going to forgive you?"
"No...no, I don't...but I couldn't expect her to."
"I'm so sorry Luke. I never meant to mess up your life like this." She says sadly.
"It's not your fault." Luke gets up and hugs her. "Good-bye, Julia."
"Goodbye Luke, and maybe keep in touch, I would love it if we could be friends." She hugs him again.
Luke tries to let go of his feelings for her in that short hug.
"Yeah, me too, another 15 years?"
"Let's not wait 15 years to talk to each other again, I don't think I can wait that long." They are still standing close.
"OK, 7, that's my final offer."
"You got a deal." She laughs and stares up at him.
"Well, you better go... "He says then backs away from her.
"Okay bye Luke, and thanks for tonight." She begins walking to the door.
Luke goes and fixes his bed then sits down, rubbing his forehead.
Back and Lorelais house.
Lorelai is still crying. She gets up and throws the necklace and the earrings that he got her out the window. Then Lorelai takes all his flannel shirts and throws them out the window also.
"I hate you Luke, I hate you!" She screams to nobody and falls back on the bed crying.
Babette hears her screaming and comes over. Babette rings the doorbell.
Lorelai doesn't want to answer it, thinking that it might be Luke.
She looks out the window and sees that it is babette; she doesn't want her to think anything right now so she wipes away her tears and walks down to answer the door.
"Hey babette."
"I heard you scream something about Luke, Sugar. Is everything ok?"
"Uh yeah everything is fine."
"Are you sure, cuz Taylor would go nuts if you guys broke up again!"
"Babette listen I'm really tired so I think I'm just going to go to bed. Goodnight." Lorelai shuts the door, and slides down to the floor, crying.
Rory comes into the house because she needs to do her laundry.
"Mom, are you here?" See just then realized That Lorelai was lying on the floor crying. Rory kneels down.
"Mom, what's wrong?"
Lorelai leans into Rory and talks through her tears.
"L..u...Luke, girl..in bed." She starts sobbing again.
"Mom, common, lets get you up to your bed." Rory gets Lorelai's hand and try's to pull her up.
"No Rory just leave me here." She pulls away from Rory and curls up on the floor.
"Mom, you have to go upstairs."
"Rory can't you understand that I don't even want to move. I feel like my heart was just ripped out of my chest and stomped on!" She yells and jumps up, grabs her coat and runs out of the house with a box labeled Luke's stuff, on it.
Rory runs after her.
"Mom! Mom! Where are you going?"
"To give the little cheater back his stuff!" Lorelai yells and continues walking.
"Mom, what are you talking about?"
She stopped and looked at Rory from a little distance.
"I'm talking about Luke! He cheated on me, look out back Rory and you'll see his stuff on the ground, please get it and bring it to me."
"What stuff?"
"I threw his flannel shirts, and the necklace and earrings he gave me out my bedroom window and in this box is some other stuff I gathered up. Now please just go get the stuff and bring it to me!"
Lorelai moved on from crying, for now, and moved to angry, frustrated, disappointed and upset.
"Ok, I'll get it, Mom, don't go anywhere!" Rory's trying to put the pieces of the puzzle together but can't come up with anything because she now Luke wouldn't cheat on her mom. She grabs the stuff and goes back.
"I got the stuff, Mom."
Lorelai pacing back and forth in the driveway while waiting for Rory, when Rory comes back she grabs the stuff from her.
"Thanks kid, now I have to go. I don't expect to be very long, so you can wait here for me if you want. Unless you have to leave." Lorelai says as she puts the rest of the stuff in the box.
"No, I'll be here when you get back."
"Okay, I'll be back."
Lorelai runs to the diner as fast as she can, it's dark inside so she sneaks in and sits at the counter and starts writing Luke and note, as she is writing the lights come on and Luke comes out from behind the curtain.
"I'm just returning some of your stuff then you can go back to...her name was Julia right? Yeah go back to her."
"Lorelai, can we talk?"
"Where did you take her when you went out tonight Luke?" She asks her question out of the blue.
"Uh, does that matter?"
"Yes Luke, it matters a lot! Because I swear to god if the next words out of your mouth are Sniffy's you will be in more pain then I am in right now!" She yells holding back her tears.
He really didn't want to lie to her so he went with the truth, "Yes,...it was Sniffy's."
"Figures." She runs out and goes home and gets in her Jeep then goes to Chris' house. She rings the doorbell crying.
Lorelai rings the doorbell.
"Hey Lor, are you okay?"
"I just really need someone to talk to right now. Can I come in?"
Yeah, common.
She comes inside and sits on the couch. Chris sits down beside her.
"What's wrong Lor?" He says as he puts his arm around her.
She sniffs back her tears. "Luke, he cheated on me, I mean it's true I don't know the whole story, but when I walked in on them I got a pretty good idea."
"I'll kill that jerk!" He stands up angry.
"No Chris, sit down, let me talk to him first, then you can kill him." They both laugh a little.
"I'm so sorry this happened."
"Lorelai, that guys a jerk, you shouldn't be with him if he's going to treat you this way!" Chris get up grabs his keys.
"I'm going to have an interesting drive." Then goes out the door and heads for his car.
"Oh god!" Lorelai says to herself, grabs her jacket and gets into her car driving back to Stars hallow.
Chris arrives at the diner.
It says closed but he knocks on the door until Luke answers.
"Chris? What the hell are you doing here?"
Lorelai pulls up too and heads towards the diner.
"So I head you cheated on Lorleai! You jerk!"
"I didn't cheat on her!"
"You sure the hell did!"
Lorelai walks in crying.
"Didn't he cheat on you?"
"Yes! Luke don't lie, I know you did!" She says as she cries, not moving from her spot, standing near the door.
"See! Why would you do this?"
"She is the one that gets all worked up over everything and thinks that I don't love her! And if I remember correctly Lorelai pretty much cheated on me with you before Emily and Richards vow renewal!"
"Shut up!"
"NO!"
This time Lorelai steps in.
"I do not get all worked up about everything! And I know you love me; I never once doubted that, you just hear whatever you want to hear! And you know I didn't cheat on you at the Vow renewal, you know that! and you did cheat on me, for you information I came here tonight to say I was sorry but instead I found you naked in bed wrapped up next to your ex girlfriend!"
Chris get mad and think that if he does this it will make Luke feel crappy. Chris puts his hands on Lorelais shoulders then turns her around and kisses her for a really long time. Lorelai kisses him back.
But then she pulls away because she knows in some way or another she doesn't want to hurt Luke because then she would be just as bad as him.
"Uh Chris..Would you mind leaving Luke and I alone for a little while?"
"Yeah, I would mind! I don't want you around this lair creep!"
"Chris please!" Lorelai begs him to let her have a moment alone with Luke.
"Fine but I'm coming back in later!" Chris leaves and goes out to sit in his Volvo.
"So I guess you'll always go to Chris with all of your problems, won't you?"
"No Luke stop it! You don't get to say that! do you know why, because I didn't sleep with Chris, we talked for a minute and then we came here. There is something I want to know, who made the first move, you or her? And were you thinking about me or us at all doing the whole evening! Please tell me!"
"We both kissed each other and we both sleep together, I thought about us once, and that was when she asked me if I was married."
Lorelai shakes her head in shock and more tears form in her eyes.
"How could you do this to me, do you know what it felt like to see you two in bed like that! Do you! I can't believe you only thought about us once, how could you! I trusted you Luke."
"Yeah, I bet I did know whet it felt like, it probably felt the same way when I saw you kiss Chris! That was the worst minute of my life. I no what I did, but you no I didn't mean to do that, it just happened, and yes the truth is that I only thought about us once!"
"OH please Luke did you not see what happened, he kissed me, I didn't kiss him back and I pushed him away! Because I didn't want to hurt you the way you hurt me. I need to know something else too; did you kiss her first, and ask her to come upstairs? Oh and one other thing before you answer, I think I may be pregnant, I'm not sure but I just have a feeling!" She says the last part to scare him.
"Like I said we both leaned in at the same time and kissed each other! And I asked her upstairs!" Lorelai just glared at Luke, then she did something neither one of them expected, she ran upstairs to Luke's apartment and looked down at his bed, never moving her eyes off of it.
Luke went up there beside her. "What are you doing?"
"Remember our first date, we ate at sniffy's then I remember you invited back up here, you put on some music and we..well..Here in this bed...the same one...well you get the point." She says softly, not yelling anymore.
"Lorelai, I don't know what to say I mean I'm glad I did what I did with Julia because..." Lorelai cuts him off.
"Wait a minute your glad you did what you did, why?"
"Because it made me realize how much I love you and Rory and how much I want to marry you and be Rory's step father, but I would understand if you didn't want to do that now." He walks back downstairs to leave her alone for a few minutes.
Lorelai continues looking at the bed until he leaves, she thinks for a few minutes and then goes back downstairs.
"But Luke, I don't understand, I mean, you could have just talked to me, or at least stopped yourself from sleeping with her. What if the same thing happens with Anna?" She doesn't raise her voice this time.
"But that's not going to happen."
"I...I...don't know Luke. I just keep picturing your lips all over her and then I keep picturing other stuff too, I don't think I can handle getting hurt again."
"But I know that I don't like Anna, I've always had feelings for Julia, just like you've always had feelings for Chris."
"But you slept with another woman." She says quietly.
"I know I did, but they were feelings that I had to see if I still had."
"You could have kissed her, because I may have understood that. Why did you guys have to take it so far, I mean sleeping with someone is a bigger deal than just kissing someone, wouldn't you agree?" She asks calmly.
"Yeah, it is. But I did kiss her and I still couldn't tell, to tell you the truth, I did have feelings for her, and I had for a really long time, but I had to see if I still did."
"And you are sure you have no more feelings for her Luke? I mean if you do, then go after her if you don't then by all means stay here, I'm not saying I'll still be here, but I'm here now aren't I." She smiles only a little.
"Do you still have feelings for Chris?"
"No, I swear to you the only feelings I have towards him are friendly. He finally understood that I was engaged to you and that I loved you."
"I'm talking about the first love thing; since he was your first love doesn't that mean that you still love him? And don't lie, please, I swear I won't get mad."
"Well that depends, you know our situations were different Luke. Love that he helped create Rory, but I think most people get over there first love, Rory got over Dean, they are friends and talk to each other, but they are both in relationships and are very happy. Maybe it just takes some people longer to fall out of love then others, not that, that is a bad thing. Luke, if you really do love her, please do go after her, I promise not to get in the way of your happiness." She says sadly and sits on the bar stool of the diner.
"That's just it Lorelai, I don't have feelings for her anymore, I had to figure that out. I still thought that I did, but I don't anymore. I pined for her forever, but I'm over her now. I've never felt anything for her like I do for you. Even though you're the strangest person I've ever met I still will always love you, so, so much."
"I'm scared Luke. You scared me tonight Luke, I want to trust you I really do, I just...I don't know how to. I do still love you, but at the same time I hate you for breaking my heart. I don't know what to do anymore." she starts crying softly.
"Like I said before, I just need to test if I still had feelings for her, but I found out something even more important."
"Which is what?"
"That I love you more than anything, you and Rory both. And I feel something with you that I've never felt with anyone before."
"I know you do Luke, I just want this feeling to go away."
Luke comes over and kisses her gently. "Did that help?"
Lorelai starts to kiss him, after a minute she pulls away, crying.
"What...?"
Lorelai finally let's more of her anger out.
"How could you kiss me after sleeping with someone else? Why did you do that to me why! Why!" She screams and keeps punching him in the chest, he stands there and let's her do it. Then she stops and cries into his chest.
Luke hugs her. "I'm so, so sorry, Lorelai, but it wasn't intentional." He says while pulling her hair out or her face.
"Please don't do that again, please. If I'm not good, I'll try and be better Luke, just tell me what I have to do; Luke and I'll do it."
"I don't want you to do anything; I love you just the way you are. I swear that I will never, ever do that again. I love you, Lorelai, so, so much."
He hugs her again.
"Luke I love you too, and I'm sorry I told you to go to hell twice before."
"Who cares about that? Lorelai, I'm so sorry I just needed to no something."
"You know, you never did say you were sorry for cheating on me, is that because you aren't sorry you did because you found out you no longer have feelings for her?"
"I am sorry for how I did it, but I needed to no if I still had feelings for her, and I didn't no how else to do it."
"Okay, I'm trying really hard to forgive Luke, and I do in a way forgive you. I guess it will just take time. So can I have my ring back? The one I threw at you in the street."
Luke pulls the ring out of her pocket and takes her hand then put it on for her. "Does this mean you want to post-pone the wedding?" He says sadly.
"I...I... really don't know Luke. I just want to wear the ring and feel like none of this ever happened. I'm going to go home now; we can talk more tomorrow, okay?"
"Ok, I get that." Luke leans in to kiss her.
Lorelai moves away from his kiss. "Not yet Luke." She walks to the door. "I'll see you tomorrow, goodnight."
Luke goes upstairs and goes to bed, but doesn't fall asleep.
