Chapter 5

Sookie bought out the caserol. "What if Jess doesn't like Caserol what if he likes Grilled cheese sandwhiches instead?" Sookie asked. Jackson and Lorelai exchanged a look and sighed. "Then he can have roast beef that Max made and the Italian dish or you could just make grilled cheese sandwhich." Lorelai said. "I'm slicing the cheese right?" Jackson asked. Luke knocked on the door. "Why bother you're just coming in anyways." Lorelai said. "If I was a seriel killer would you say that to me?" Luke asked. "Yes." Lorelai said. "Wrong answer for negative two hundred Alex." "You watched Jepordy?" Lorelai asked. "Yes but I'll bet so have you." Luke said. "Only when I was going with mood swings when I was pregant with Rory." Lorelai said. "Everyone has their guilty pleasures besides it makes you smarter." "I had no idea TV did that then why on earth am I in business school." Lorelai said. "Oh you hush. Jess this is Lorelai Lorelai Jess. Max Medina her boy I mean husband." Luke said. "Whatever." "Where's Rory?" Luke asked. "In her bedroom with Dean." Lorelai replied. Max knocked on the door and pushed it open. "This stays open until I leave got it?" Max asked. "Yes sir. Hey Jess how's it going there?" "Well nowhere since you can't do anything in this hick town you love the bagger boy?" Jess asked. "Yes I do. Hi Jess." Jess walked into Rory's room.

Luke followed Lorelai into the kitchen. The others had bought plates and drinks outside. Max and Jackson were laughing about something. Lorelai looked at Luke. "Oh here's your gift." She gave him some chocolate. "What? You know I don't eat - "You will once you've tried chocolate from Spain baby." Lorelai said. "Thanks I'll give some to customers at the diners." "Awe it lets us know you love me." Lorelai said. "Us meaning Rory and me. I mean me Max and Rory." "Right cause I do." Luke nodded. "Let me get you a plate." Lorelai grabbed one down. "No I can do that." Luke tried to take the plate from her but as he reached up they leaned against each other. "Uh here." Lorelai said nervously. Luke looked at her longingly. "Lorelai I missed you alot." He said. "Yeah well friends miss friends right?" Lorelai asked. Luke bent down to kiss her. "Luke!" Jess snapped coming out. "Don't make me hit you." Dean was saying as they walked into the room with Rory in tow. "Guys there is absolutely no need for this Dean I told him he could borrow a book if he wanted! Mom. Luke." Rory said stopping in her tracks. "You told him he could borrow. Borrow not steal I highly doubt he's planning on returning it." Dean said. Luke stepped back from Lorelai. "Well I should yeah. Maybe Max would like a drink." Lorelai nodded and went outside. Rory stared at Luke. "What was going on?" "Nothing." "Didn't look like nothing Luke." Jess said. "What?" "It looked like she was about to give you a lap dance and a married woman." "Jess shut up stop it or go home." Luke snapped. "Fine. I just tell the truth." "Yeah cause stealing is a sure sign of honesty." Dean growled. "Night Rory you could come along and bail this shit." Jess said. "She could if she didn't enjoy it." "I've seen enough." Jess stomped outside with a plate and sat next to Lorelai. "Hey." "Hey." "Where's that game of strip poker you promised me?" "You're a creep." "You offered. Maybe Luke would like it better. Yeah that must be it." Jess said. Max gave Lorelia a look. Rory who had come outside burst out laughing. "My mom and Luke please." Rory said. "Luke's been a good friend and if you hurt him I'll kick your ass." Lorelia said. "No denial I'd be very concerned if I were you." Jess told Max. "Luke doesn't like me anymore than a friend Max." Lorelai said. "I know I believe you. Give me our plate back and get out of here." Max told Jess. Luke came outside. "Do not tell him what to do." "He will not disrespect me in front of company in my home. Get him out of here." Max said quietly. "Fine. Lorelai it was good to see you. Max sorry." Luke stomped off dragging Jess by the cuff of his sleeve. "Ow ow let go!" Jess snapped. Luke did once they got the truck. "Sookie Jackson it's been a lovely evening your welcome to stay of course but I need to retire. It's early."
