Lorelai walked around town. She was restless and needed to do something, anything, to be kept busy. Noticing Luke in his closed diner, refilling ketchup bottles, she walked over to the glass windows. "Luke! Hey, Luke! Luuuuke!" She knocked repeatedly on the glass.

"Wha- Lorelai?"

"Hey, Luke! Let me in!"

"What the-" Luke walked over and opened the door. "Lorelai? What are you doing here?"

"Chris and I… we were never married."

"You weren't? What?"

Lorelai sat down at an empty table. "I should probably explain from the beginning, shouldn't I."

"Yes, yes, you should."

"Chris and I- we got 'married' in Paris." She put finger quotes around married. "But the 'priest' that married us, he was a fake." She again put finger quotes around priest. "Just a- a random guy looking for some money, in a church.? I mean, first of all, a church. Dude, you could do so much better. How 'bout a soup kitchen? Or- or dress up as an injured person after a hurricane? Or just go to the pope's front yard and tell him that you're poor and need him to buy some poisoned ice cream cones and give them to little children?" Luke laughed at this.

"And so Chris found this out. And we broke up."

"Oh- Lorelai, I'm sorry-"

"No, no, don't be, it's fine, we were never meant to be. It was just a fling."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Okay."

"Well…"

"Coffee?"

"Yes, please."

Luke poured Lorelai coffee. He brought it over and she drank it thirstily.

"So my coffee's still good?"

Lorelai swallowed. "Is the world still round?"

"Yes."

"Okay."

They smiled at each other, sharing a moment. All of a sudden, Lorelai looked into his eyes and told him the words that had been on her mind. "I still love you, Luke."

Luke stared at her. He knew that he should have been shocked, but he had always known that the feelings that they had had together were always going be there. They were meant to be together. Luke brushed the hair out of her eyes and kissed her. Surprised, Lorelai broke off.

"What are you doing?"

He smiled. "Would you just stand still?"

Rory groaned as she woke up. All of the nights events came back to her in a rush and her heart sank. Her father… he didn't want to see her anymore. She was being abandoned by her own flesh and blood. Well, it's not like it's never happened before.

That didn't mean it didn't hurt. She took a deep breath and rolled out of bed.

After she'd gotten ready for the day, she went out for some good coffee, not the disgusting crap she'd made. She wished she could go to Luke's, but it was just too far away. And just thinking of Luke… he was like a father figure… it just hurt too much to think about all of it. Finally at the coffee place, she ordered a mocha latte and sat down. Picking up her cell phone, Rory pressed speed dial five without thinking. It rang and rang, and she knew that no sane person with a hangover would let a phone go that long without picking up if they were home. But she still let it ring… not to leave a message, just to tell try and make herself believe that it was never true. Finally, she just gave up and hung up. She was almost relieved that she wouldn't have to confront him now… she wouldn't have to find out whether or not it was all real. But still, waiting for it was almost like slowly pulling off the band-aid instead of quickly ripping it. She knew that it eventually had to come off, and the longer she waited, the stickier it would get, and it would just hurt more. Only the wound under it wouldn't start healing until she let it get some air. Hopefully it wouldn't be too deep, but no matter what it would always leave a scar. Rory smiled. She was back to making horrible clichés… but it was almost like the situation disserved it. It was her father, after all. She picked up her phone and dialed the number again.

Lorelai smiled as she played with Luke's chest hairs in bed. "We should really do this more often."

Luke smiled back at her. "I know."

They laid in a comfortable silence.

"So… what's been going on in your life?"

"I'm trying to get custody, of April."

"Really? Oh, Luke, that's great!"

"It is, isn't it? But… I don't know, taking her away from Anna…"

"Well… it'd be partial custody, right?"

"Yeah, of course."

"I think you should be able to… I mean, if it was a different situation, I might have my doubts. Like, with Rory and Chris… I mean, I told Chris. He was never there. But with you… Anna never told you. You would've been there, you would've been a great dad, if you'd had the chance."

"You think?"

Lorelai smiled again. "I know."

"Thanks."

"Do you ever… do you think we could go back to the way things were?"

"Now? Lorelai… I have no idea. Things happened, we happened… we had to have been split up for a reason, right?"

She cut him off. "I was scared, and I was confused, and I know how clichéd I'm sounding right now, but Luke, I love you. And I will fight like hell to take you back."

He looked at her in the eyes. "I know you will."

A/N- I know, this chapter's short, and late, I'm sorry! Here in the frozen (and trust me, FROZEN) New Hampshire, power has been out everywhere. So… I couldn't get on my computer and write till yesterday, because my power went out Monday, and didn't come back until Wednesday… so I was unable to access anything at all… and I was cold. So… that's my excuse. But still… review!!!
