A/N: Lorelai and Luke don't know about Jess and Rory talking when Jess came back to town to get his car. Luke and Lorelai are not together.

Lorelai hopped into the diner on one foot, her hand tugging at her the top of her boot.

Luke stopped what he was doing and stared at her. "What in the world are you doing? Or should I even ask?"

"Haha. Very funny, flannel man. Something was scratching my leg and I was trying to fix it." Lorelai replied as she plopped down on a stool at the counter.

Luke just raised an eyebrow and shook his head. "I think that you get stranger by the day."

She just wrinkled her nose at him and picked up the clean coffee mug that was sitting in front of her. "Give me coffee now!"

Rolling his eyes, he sighed in defeat and set the pot in front of her. "Here I give up. Just take the pot. You're going to bug me until you drink the whole thing anyway."

"Yes! I win!" Lorelai threw her arms up in the arm, hopping off of her stool to do a happy dance and sat back down when she noticed that no one was celebrating with her. She pushed the pot away from her and shook her head. "Nah. Take it back, it's no fun when Rory's not here."

Luke shook his head and leaned slightly on the counter. "Speaking of Rory, she hasn't been home in a while. How's she doing?"

Lorelai gazed at the counter for a minute and then around at the crowded diner. "She'll be fine." She replied nonchalantly, but Luke could easily detect that something was wrong.

"What do you mean, she'll be fine? Be fine, isn't saying that she is fine. Is college getting to hard for her to handle?"

Lorelai sat up straighter and glared slightly. "I don't want to talk about it. And, no, college isn't getting to hard for her. She's getting all A's actually."

"Well, I do want to talk about it. You know Rory's like a daughter to me. What's wrong? Even when she has been home, which she hasn't in the past month, she doesn't seem like herself when she comes in here."

Lorelai rolled her eyes and shook her head at him. "Think about it, Luke."

"Huh? Think about what?"

"Why wouldn't Rory be the same when she comes in here of all places?"

"How am I supposed to know that?" Luke asked disgruntled.

Lorelai leaned closer to him and half whispered. "Jess, Luke."

"What! What do you mean? He isn't even here. What are you talking about?"

"She has never gotten over Jess. Gee, Luke, keep up why don't ya."

"But…" Luke trailed off and a helpless look crossed his features.

"I don't know why either, Luke. Except that she really was in love with him. Still is, if I had to guess."

"I don't even know what to say." Luke responded quietly.

"Don't blame yourself, Luke. Have you even heard from him?"

"Not since he came back for his car about six months back. Why?"

"I just wondered. Rory seemed to get worse after that visit. I don't know if seeing him around town, upset her that much or what."

"Did they talk? Cause if they did he didn't tell me." Luke said.

"I don't think so. I mean she didn't say anything about that. She would have told me wouldn't she have?"

"I don't know. Would she?"

Luke and Lorelai stared at each other for a moment wondering silently if maybe the two of them had talked.
