Ok, some things I forgot to mention:
-Luke is a little younger then he should be, 15ish instead of 17ish, sorry if that offends anyone and I'm sorry I forgot to mention it before
-Liz isn't in this story, I just don't feel like putting her in, they might mention her, but I won't make her a character. I don't know, maybe I'll change my mind later…
-Chris is in the story as Lorelai's friend ( but don't worry, he's a not a threat) but he won't be in it until later
-I don't know Taylor's are, so I'm saying he's about ten years older then Luke, so if Luke is 15is in this story, then Taylor is 25ish
SiStAz4EvA- I'll try to make Luke less excited, but I was going for the fact that he's a teenage boy happy that a girl is interested in him
Bianca89- Sorry about the outfit, I forgot about the plaid, I'll add it in somewhere.
That's it, I think, thanks for the reviews, but I expect MORE next time
Luke lead Lorelai through the snow-covered town, it seemed more beautiful now then ever before.
"So…" Lorelai said cheerfully "Are their any good places to get coffee around here?"
"Coffee can kill you" Luke responded
"Hey, we're all leaving this place eventually, the sooner the better" Lorelai responded happily
"Hey, it isn't so bad here"
"You obviously haven't met my mother…"
They continued walking along the snowy path around the town. A cheerful younger man marched over to them, calling to Luke.
"Lucas! Oh, Lucas!" the man called to Luke waving his hand in the air. Luke turned and led Lorelai in the other direction.
"Luke, who is that?" Lorelai whispered to Luke as they raced away from the man.
"Taylor Doose, he's the new owner of the market, and let me tell you, that man is crazy"
"Lucas!" Taylor called out "Ah! Now Luke, you better listen to this." Luke sighed, and turned around.
"I'm listening Taylor" Luke said annoyed
"As you know, Star's Hallow is celebrating their Annual Valentines Day Festival in a couple of weeks, and I would be delighted if your father would help out in building the decorations. I would be honored."
"So all you want me to do is ask my dad to help out at some stupid carnival?" Luke said, surprised he would get out of this situation so easily
"That would be absolutely fabulous! And who is this we have here?" Taylor said motioning toward Lorelai.
"Taylor this is Lorelai, Lorelai Taylor, Now Bye Taylor" Luke said, turning around and heading in the other direction.
"A festival, that doesn't sound too bad. That actually sounds fun!" Lorelai said, fascinated in the peculiar town.
"There's the spirit Lorelai! Now I expect to see you at this festival!" Taylor said enthusiastically.
"I'll see what I can do." Lorelai replied
"Great!" Taylor said before marching off to ramble on to another townsperson.
"Lorelai, they have a damn festival for every damn holiday ever created, they even make up some of them their selves, just for a chance to hang up banners and colored lights and all those damn balloons. It's insanity!"
"Luke, it doesn't sound horrible, it sounds horrible, it actually sounds kind of nice…"
But before the argument could continue any longer, a teenage girl ran squealing up to Luke.
"Butch? Is that you?" A blonde girl ran up, who looked like she had an IQ of about five. Not because she was blonde, but because of the way she acted.
"Butch, it is you!" she said flirtatiously completely ignoring Lorelai. "So what are you doing? Training for baseball season already, well you can't let all that muscle go to waste all winter long. That's practically forever." The prissy girl cooed. "You're so dedicated!"
"Um… I suppose so…"Luke replied nervously
"Well great, maybe we could hook up sometime"
"Maybe… sometime…."
"Great… well I have to go, I getting highlights, and I have to hurry, you know how that is, Tootles!" said the blonde as she strutted though the four inches of snow.
"Yeah Butch…" Lorelai mocked "Maybe we could hook up sometime, you know, when the temperature is higher then my IQ"
"Oh shut-up." Luke blushed "She's just a girl from school, you know, she's nothing" Luke changed the subject. "Hey" he said, pointing to a building "This is Weston's, it's a bakery, they serve pastries, coffee, whatever"
"Sounds good!" Lorelai said happily as they entered the cheery bakery. Lorelai stood studying all the pastries. "I'll have a cherry Danish and a medium coffee." She said to the cashier.
"Just a water for me" Luke told the cashier.
"Luke! How could you come into a bakery and now order anything!"
"I'm not really hungry…"
"Suit yourself!"
"That will be $5.00" the cashier told Lorelai. Luke pulled a bill out of his pocket and passed it across the counter.
"…I have money…" Lorelai said, but Luke cut her off
"Don't worry, it's on me" Luke said smiling
They sat down at a table near the window, and Lorelai happily chewed her Danish.
"Thanks Butch." She said, mouth full of food.
"For what?"
"This is really, nice, like really really, nice, you just saved me from an afternoon shopping with my mother! You're a hero"
"Well you're not so bad yourself"
"So you have a dad?" Lorelai said, desperate for conversation
"Yes"
"I have a dad too, but he's the kind who practically lives at the office, and thinks a good conversation involves chatting about stock markets and money. I rarely see him, and when I do he's usually on the phone."
"That's how it was with my mom" Luke took a sip of his water "She was always busy with one thing or another." Lorelai smiled, happy he understood. "My dad's dream is for me to take over the hardware store one day, but I'm not really a hardware kind of guy…"
"Oh, well then what kind of guy are you, butch?" Lorelai smiled wider.
"Well, lets see… I play baseball and track, and I like to cook…"
"Hmm… a man with a spatula, sounds good to me!" Luke smiled too. Her thoughts drifted out the window
"Oh my god!" she almost choked on her Danish
"Lorelai, what is it?" Luke worried
"Look at all that snow! It has to be seven or eight inches, and it's still falling!"
"We get a lot of snow here"
"I love snow," Lorelai said as she collected her belongings and headed outside. "Come on!"
They stood in the lawn, Lorelai was the first to create a small ball, and aim it at the back of Luke's head when he wasn't looking. Score!
"What the hell?" Luke turned around to see Lorelai laughing and quickly, he pelted a snowball at her too. The fight had increased and soon snowballs flew across the yard. Slipping on a patch of ice, Lorelai fell to the ground, but instantly Luke caught her. Lorelai lay in the snow, in Luke's arms, looking directly into his eyes. Pure silence followed as they looked longingly into each others eyes. Their faces moved closer together and…
"Lorelai Gilmore, What on earth are you doing?" Startled, Luke almost dropped Lorelai before turning around to see Emily. Both Lorelai and Luke stumbled to get to their feet.
"My word, Lorelai, when I told you to stand outside the antique store, I meant for you to stand outside the antique store not… not run off with some… boy!"
"Mom! I wasn't doing anything, I just got hungry so I would this bakery and then I fell in the snow!"
"Lorelai, if you would have done what I told you then we wouldn't be stuck here!"
"What?" Lorelai said confused
"Lorelai, do you really think I'm going to drive an hour in a foot of snow! I won't be able to, it's too dangerous! We'll just have to find a hotel of something and stay overnight." Emily paused to scowl at her daughter "Hey you" Emily said, pointing to speechless Luke "Is there a hotel or something in this town"
"Yes-" Luke said "but my dad's friend works there and he say's there hasn't been any rooms free in days."
"Oh great! What are we suppose to do now? We're stranded in this town!" Emily said hopelessly. Lorelai stared at Luke, hoping he could think of something.
Hahaha- a Cliffhanger! What will happen next wit Emily and Lorelai stranded in Stars Hallow??
PLEASE REVIEW!!!!!!!
