Chapter 6
"Lorelai I think that was highly unnecessary", said Luke as they sat in the empty diner eating burgers and salad (burger for Lorelai and salad for Luke).
"Well I don't" stated Lorelai as she bit into her burger.
After Lorelai had spotted Luke talking to that other woman, things had gone rapidly downhill. Lorelai's mind and any trace of civil behavior seemed to vacate her body as she walked over to the pair and "accidentally" dumped a glass of champagne onto the woman who let out a loud screech causing everyone to turn towards the trio. Emily who saw what her daughter had done to the woman who was in fact the head of the DAR immediately took Lorelai by the elbow and dragged her to the door telling her that she should leave in which Lorelai replied, "gladly".
"It's not like she was doing something unsavory, we were just talking", said Luke.
"Yeah well…" at this point Lorelai realized that she really didn't know why she got so jealous, but more to the point jealous over Luke. Monosyllable, flannel wearing, ranting, coffee cake making, if-you-eat-that-your-going-to-die Luke.
"Well what?" asked Luke.
"Well nothing" those were the words which came out of her mouth but her head was saying things more along the lines of, 'OH MY GOD!! I like Luke, but I can't like Luke were just friends, friends who tell each other everything and do each other favors like going to Balls and wear tuxes even though they hate tuxes and rescue people from their crazy mothers. Lorelai now realized that if this list continued it would never stop and she would be stuck staring at Luke like a lunatic for a very long time.
"I have to go" with that Lorelai turned to the door and walked out and she was halfway down the street before Luke had recovered from the shock of her sudden exit.
Luke jumped up and ran after her catching her at the gazebo. "Lorelai wait!"
Lorelai wanted to keep walking but a hand on her arm stopped her and made her turn around to face the hand's owner, Luke.
"Let me go!"
"Not until you tell me what the hell is going on!"
"What are you talking about?"
By this stage the couple had produced quite a crowd who were all vividly watching the drama unfolding before them between two of the most loved residents of Stars Hollow.
"I'm talking about tonight, you ask me to be your 'pretend date' for a Ball and then you become this crazy lady the moment you see me just talking to another woman!"
"I was not a crazy lady!"
"No your right, you were a crazy JEALOUS lady! I mean was I your date or just your 'pretend date'?"
The scene went quiet as Luke and Lorelai looked at each other for a long time. It seemed everyone in the crowd, which by now had become the whole town, was holding their breath.
"This is ridiculous", Luke sighed.
"Well you start…" Lorelai never got to finish her sentence as Luke had brought his lips down to cover hers. Lorelai was stunned and just stood there for a few moments at which point Luke thinking since she wasn't kissing back that he had just done the stupidest thing ever pulled away and bowed his head.
The crowd around them let out a disappointed "Awwwww" but Luke and Lorelai weren't paying attention.
Luke looked up at Lorelai and said, "Sorry I shouldn't have done that" then turned and began to step away when…
"Luke wait"
Luke turned back to face Lorelai and found she had a massive smile on her face. Luke facial expression became one of confusion until Lorelai leaned forward and whispered, "My real date" before capturing his lips with hers. Luke raped his arms around Lorelai's waist as the kiss intensified while she snaked her arms around his neck threading her fingers through his hair. Soon air became an issue and the couple separated but kept their foreheads touching.
At that moment something clicked and they both turned their heads to the crowd who were cheering and a deep blush crept onto their cheeks.
