I realize it's been a while since I updated, so if you don't want to go back and read, let me remind you of what even I had to go back and reread (that's how terrible I am about updates!!!!!!!)
Lorelai found the Death Note, Luke doesn't want to set up for Halloween, Lorelai got bored and tested out the Death Note causing Old Man Twickham to die forever, Rory was useless to the world because she stoopid!!!! Yaaaaayz!!! What will happen next?!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"It's all my fault." Lorelai whispered, tears gathering in her eyes.
"How can it be your fault, he died of a heart attack?" Lorelai turned as white as a ghost. "Mom, what's wrong."
"It's the Death Note. It worked..."
"The what?" Rory asked, dumbfounded.
"The Death Note!" she shouted, pointing at the black book, still sitting on the coffee table. "I knew I shouldn't have tried it! I should have just thrown it away...."
Rory picked up the Death Note off of the coffee table. She read through the rules before glancing up at Lorelai, who was still freaking out. "You don't actually believe this, do you?" when Lorelai didn't answer Rory rolled her eyes and said, "Come on mom. It's just a chain letter. Mr. Twickham is 1000 years old. He was always 'dying.' It was bound to happen for real eventually, right." when Lorelai just shrugged Rory suggested that that they go to Luke's and get coffee. "My treat. I'll even buy you pie."
When Lorelai agreed, Rory went off to her room to change and Lorelai grabbed the Death Note and threw it into the trash. When Rory came out Lorelai grabbed her purse and Rory just told her to leave it, reminding her that it was her treat. They walked to the diner in companionable silence. When they walked through the door, Luke glanced up and asked, "Why are you here?"
"Coffee." Rory answered simply before both Gilmore Girls sat themselves at the counter.
"Weren't you here an hour ago?" Luke asked. Lorelai just nodded, the usual playful light in her eyes gone. "You're awfully chatty today." Luke tried to joke. When she just looked up at him pathetically Luke immediately reached under the counter to grab a cup for her, pouring coffee until it was practically spilling over the edge. "We're out of cherry pie but we have pumpkin and pecan. Two good things that start 'p.'" he said, trying to evoke a 'dirty.' When she just muttered "pecan" he began to get nervous.
"Hey Luke, can I talk to you?" Rory asked. Luke plated a slice of pie for Lorelai before following Rory about halfway up the stairs. "I don't know what's wrong with mom. She's been like this since I got home. I have to go study with Lane but I can cancel."
"I can keep an eye on your mom."
"You sure?"
"Absolutely. You go to Lane's." She thanked him before going back into the diner. She told Lorelai where she was going and said that she would be back soon and then gave her mom a hug and dashed out the door.
When Luke walked back down, he noticed Lorelai had hardly touched her pie. He went back into the kitchen and came out a few minutes later and dropped a plate in front of her with a smirk. He saw a flicker of joy in her eyes and immediately felt better as she realized what he had made for her. "Chili topped pringles?" He simply shrugged and she stood up and pressed a kiss to his cheek before sitting back down and demolishing her pringles.
He noticed a customer and went to take their order while Lorelai was already feeling a little brighter.
Later that night, Rory walked in the house to see Lorelai sitting at the table while the scent of chicken nuggets filled the house.
"Hi Mom." Rory said cautiously, hoping whatever Lorelai was going through had blown over.
"Hey kid. How was Lane." Rory sighed happily before telling Lorelai about how much work they had done.
"Good thing you have dinner going. I was almost stuck with something made out of tofu."
"Yuck! Chicken nuggets are much better!"
"I see you are much calmer than earlier."
"I realized it can't be my fault. I can't control death through a notebook."
"Glad you came to your senses!"
