Okay, since a lot of people who sent me messages or reviews just said do whatever I want to do, & some people just said to update fast. I'm just going to do this chapter my way. I hope you enjoy it!
3 1/2 years had pass since Luke & Lorelai had first met, Richard & Emily had invited the Danes family to a dinner & Richard & Emily had got to meet everyone. (Luke, Liz, William, & Amelia.) After Lorelai kept going over to the Danes house, & Liz & Luke kept coming over to the Gilmore household, William & Amelia suggested Lorelai have a room of her own at their house, so she could spend some nights at their home. Richard & Emily accepted the warm gesture. They didn't want to seen rude, so they suggested the same thing for both Liz & Luke. So, every other weekend, Lorelai sleeps over at the Danes house, & every other other weekend, Liz & Luke would sleepover at the Gilmore household. At first, Emily didn't like her daughter "hanging out" with these "un-socialized" people, but she got to know William, Amelia, Luke, & Liz, & she found that they were kind & friendly people, now she didn't like them because in her book, they were still "un-socialized" people, but they were just, well, okay.
-Gilmore Household-Lorelai's Room-Sunday-A Week Before Lorelai's 10th Birthday-
"Luuuuukkkkkeeee!" Lorelai whined. "Why won't you teeelllll meeeee!" She continued. Luke grinned. " You're not getting it out of me Lorelai." He replied. "Liz?" She tried. "Sorry Lorelai, he wouldn't tell me." Liz answered, giving her a look that said "Sorry." "Aw man!" Lorelai crossed her arms & pouted. Luke laughed. "That pout really works, but it won't work this time, I want your birthday present to be a surprise." Luke said. He was determined to make her birthday present the best one at her birthday party, & he couldn't do that if she knew the surprise! "Alright." Lorelai sighed. She had admitted defeat. "Come on, lets see if Ralph will sneak us a cookie!" Lorelai suggested. Liz agreed. "No thanks." Luke answered. "I think I want to live until I'm 20, thank you." Lorelai rolled her eyes. "Fine we'll ask for 2 cookies & an apple, happy?" Lorelai asked. Luke sighed. "Okay."
Ralph was Lorelai's new cook, he was really cool! He would sometimes sneak them candy or some cookies or something, but not too much, he could swear that Emily would smell the sugar on their breaths if they ate too much.
-The Kitchen-
"Pisst! Ralph!" Lorelai whispered. Ralph looked down at his feet to see Lorelai, practically crawling on the floor. "Ms.Gilmore, what are you doing here?" Ralph whispered back. "Is my mom in here?" She asked, ignoring his question, "I'll tell him later anyways." She thought. "No. Mrs.Gilmore is not here." Ralph answered. Lorelai stood up. "Now, tell me, Ms.Gilmore, why are you in here?" Ralph question again. "Well, Liz & I wanted some cookies." She answered. "May we have some?" She asked politely. "Only 1 each." Ralph replied. "Okay." Lorelai said. "& can Luke have an apple?" "Sure." Ralph said. He had no problem with Luke's healthy eating habits. It was Lorelai's & Liz's sugar addiction that he was worried about.
"Thank you." Lorelai said. "No problem, Ms.Gilmore." Ralph smiled. He liked Lorelai, even though her mom was a, well, lets just say, a tad strict. Lorelai was a fun loving kid, who just happened to have, well, unfun loving parents.
Lorelai skipped out of the kitchen happily. As she saw Emily just around the corner, she stopped dead in her tracks. She looked around desperately, trying to find a place to hide the cookies, she quickly hide them behind a vase. Just at that moment, Emily spotted her. "Lorelai, what are you doing by the kitchen door?" she asked suspiciously. "Uh, getting an apple." "Well, it IS true, I was getting an apple, just not for me." She thought. "Why?" Emily asked, still suspicious. "I wanted a snack." Lorelai answered. "THAT was true too, I did want a snack, just, not an apple." Lorelai thought. "Alright…" Emily said, still a little suspicious.
Emily went into the living room, while Lorelai grabbed the cookies, ran upstairs, into her room, & closed her door. "Whew!" Lorelai said, leaning up against the door, & wiping her forehead dramatically. "What happened?" Luke sighed, Lorelai was such a drama queen sometimes, it could have been that she squashed an ant with her foot, & she'll say that now she's going to turn into a big ugly ant! "My mom saw me!" she said. Luke's eyes widened, this was serious! He knew how Emily Gilmore could be. "Did she catch you!" Liz spoke up for the first time since Lorelai had entered the room.
"No, she didn't catch me, I made up this great cover story. I put the cookies behind the vase in the hall, & when she spotted me, I said I went into the kitchen to get an apple because I wanted a snack, which isn't a lie, because I did go into get an apple, just not for me, & the part that I wanted a snack, was true too! I did want a snack, just not an apple, so technically, I didn't lie." Lorelai said, explaining her side of the story. "Okay, soooooo, Lorelai." Liz said, "Can I have my cookie now?" she asked. Lorelai laughed. "Sure." She answered. She gave Liz her cookie & Luke his apple…..
After a while they finish eating, & they just sat in silence. "Soooooo, Luke." Lorelai said, breaking the silence. "Yes Lorelai." Luke said, rolling his eyes. "Whatcha get for my birthday?" Lorelai asked, with an innocent look on her face. "For the millionth time, I'm not going to tell you." Luke said, as calmly as he could. "Whyyyyyyy?" Lorelai whined. Luke grinned, " Because I don't have to." He teased. "Meanie." Lorelai said, pouting. Luke & Liz just laughed.
