A/N: I would just like everyone to know that I am a Luke/Lorelai person 100 percent, but there are so many Luke/Lorelai stories out there that I just wanted to try something different. But who knows, maybe it will turn into a Luke/Lorelai fic. You'll just have to read and find out.
Lorelai was still smiling as she closed the door. Then suddenly, the smile disappeared from her face and she all of the sudden felt dirty. As quickly as she could she ran up to her shower. How could she do this to her daughter? What would Rory say when she found out? How would she tell Rory? She scrubbed her head harder. She dressed in her pajamas and then lay on her bed, thinking about ways to tell Rory and that's how she fell asleep.
The next morning Lorelai was in her kitchen digging through her cabinets and her fridge, but there was no coffee to be found anywhere. Lorelai groaned, this is just what she needed. The morning after she had tried to make a big decision and no caffeine. She grabbed her keys and ran out the door.
"Lane I need coffee now!" Lorelai threw her purse on the nearest table. The couple sitting at the table looked up at her. "Hi," Lorelai smiled at them. "Sorry about this, but you see I really shouldn't be walking around that much. The doctor says that it makes me cough more, which makes me spread this bacteria quicker. And I really don't want to inflict other people with the fever, the nausea, the diarrhea, the…" But Lorelai didn't need to finish because the couple had already gotten up and fled the diner. She smiled, satisfied with herself. Luke looked up at the sound of the bell as the couple exited. Lorelai smiled, hesitantly at him. He sighed and walked over to her.
"What do you want?"
"Look, Luke I know things didn't go so well for us the last time we talked…"
"The last time we talked you dumped me like last week's trash and then never came back."
"And I'm sorry Luke, but I was hoping we could put that behind us and then get back to our old routine, you know how you used to criticize what I eat and I would give you some witty comment in return and flash you my dazzling smile and you would leave."
"And I repeat, what do you want?"
"I want Lane to come take my order." Lorelai crossed her arms like a child.
"She can't."
"And why is that, do you specifically want to take my order so you can torture me?"
"No."
"Well then why?"
"Because she's at the hospital."
"She's at the what?!" Lorelai stood up.
"The hospital, been there since last night."
"Is everything ok?"
"If you consider bringing two kids into an already overcrowded, polluted, crime infested world ok, then yes she's just fine."
"Ah there's the old Luke." Lorelai began to head out of the diner, but Luke stopped her.
"Don't you want anything to eat?"
"No I think I'm going to go see Lane. And besides you won't take my order."
"You can't. Mrs. Kim specifically asked for no visitors."
"And I wouldn't dare to defy her." Lorelai stood, hand reaching for the door, not sure what to do with herself. "So do you want to take my order?"
"Yes and I'll even throw in a condescending comment if you want, free of charge." Lorelai smiled.
"In that case I'll have pancakes with extra whipped cram and some bacon and eggs and coffee."
"And would you like the clogged arteries on the side?"
"I missed that." Lorelai closed her eyes for a moment as she sat down at the counter. "So what have you been up to since we last talked?" Lorelai asked Luke as he poured her coffee.
"Not much, I've been going to see Liz and the baby a lot."
"Aw, that's nice."
"Yeah, yeah. So what about you?"
"What about me?"
"What have you been up to since we last talked?" Luke called over his shoulder as he moved into the kitchen area.
"Not much." Lorelai began to sip her coffee. She set the cup down. "Luke can I ask you something?" Lorelai began to trace shapes on the counter.
"No I would never have another man's name tattooed on my butt," Luke said as he set her plate down in front of her.
"Oh well thanks for that. That totally answers my question."
"Really?"
"No." Luke walked off and set plates on another table.
"What were you going to ask me?"
"Well I was going to ask for your advice on something."
"Ok shoot."
"Let's say you're dating someone that you really shouldn't be dating…"
"Ok I have to stop you right there. Is this a hypothetical situation or are we talking for real?"
Lorelai opened her mouth to lie, but then realized that she might as well tell the truth. "For real."
"Ok so who is this person?"
"I don't really think that's any of your business."
"Well if I'm going to be dishing out advice I might as well know who it's for."
"You don't need to know."
"So you really shouldn't be dating this person."
"Yes that's what I said before."
"What, is he in prison or something?"
"No."
"Is it a woman?"
"No!"
"Then what's the big deal?"
"He already has a girlfriend." Luke nodded. "So do you think I should continue seeing him?"
"It depends, is this girlfriend someone you're close to?" Lorelai hesitated,
"Yeah, we're real close."
"It's not Sookie is it?"
"No."
"Michel have a hot new boyfriend?"
"No it's…" but Lorelai's cell went off at that very moment. She picked it up out of her bag as Luke went to take another table their food. Lorelai read the text message she had just gotten.
I'll be at your house tonight at eight with food. Chinese or pizza?
Lorelai didn't need a name to know who had sent the message to her. Quickly she typed a response to Logan.
"I love you!" Lorelai sighed as Logan spread the wide variety of Chinese food out across the coffee table.
"Wow this relationship is moving kind of fast."
"That's not the way I meant it. I just meant that it was really good of you to bring all this food."
"Relax, I know what you meant." Logan cupped her chin in his hand and then kissed her on the lips.
"Besides I don't think that a couple of dates can really count as a relationship."
"You like me and I like you, that's all that matters." Lorelai sighed.
"So for tonight we have Save the Last Dance and Step Up."
"Into the dancing and forbidden love thing tonight aren't we?"
"So which should we start with?" Lorelai held up the DVD's.
"You choose."
"Fine then, Step Up it is." Lorelai put the DVD in the player.
The couple on the television were spinning over and over. "I tell you if I was a few years younger Channing Tatum would be mine."
"He's pretty much the same age as me," Logan said as he shoved the last egg roll in his mouth. Lorelai looked at him and then began to get a bit nervous. "So if you had to choose which one of us would it be?" Logan looked deep into her eyes.
"I don't know, have you seen that guy's body?"
"Yes, but can he do this?" Logan kissed her.
"Oh I don't know, I'll have to test that later." Lorelai smiled and Logan leaned in to kiss her again. Lorelai giggled and the two of them began to engage in a heavy make out session.
"Oh my gosh mom," Rory gushed as she shut the door behind her. "The baby's are beautiful. Two sons. They look just like…Zach." Rory stopped when she saw her mother and Logan on the couch. "What is this?" Lorelai and Logan looked at one another. "Oh my gosh." Rory looked from her mother to Logan. "The two of you. Behind my back. My mother!" Rory began to lack the ability to form a complete sentence.
"Rory, I was going to tell you," Logan tried.
"Don't talk to me!" Rory held her hand up to Logan.
"Rory, sweetie. It's not what it looks like."
"It's not what it looks like? Are the two of you dating?"
"Yes," Logan said before Lorelai could even open her mouth to speak.
"Then it's exactly what it looks like." Rory turned on her heel and began to put the coat she was taking off back on. She opened the door and pulled it shut hard behind her. Logan tried to put his hand on Lorelai's. She just shook her head and then walked out the door after Rory.
