Chapter 5 – People Eat There, Ya Know.
So, here is my next chapter. Sorry for the wait…again. I hope you like it:
Oh and also, thank you soooooo much for your reviews! I love them!
"Gaaaah! I hate this." Lorelai said as her and Rory approached the doors of the Gilmore mansion.
"I know." Rory said.
"We can still leave."
"Mom…"
"I'm sorry. I'm just really not in the mood for this."
"Are you ever in the mood for this?"
"Well, no. But I can deal with it. Now I just want to leave."
"And be with your mystery man?"
"He's not my mystery man."
"You, me and him are the only ones who know about you guys. And you've been sneaking around town all week."
"Can you imagine if the town found out about us? It would be horrible."
"So, you're just going to keep it a secret forever?"
"For now. It's kind of fun sneaking around. It makes me feel like we're really doing something scandalous."
"Whatever makes you happy."
"Are you just going to stand there all night?" Emily said as she opened the door.
"Hi mom. Nice to see you too."
"Come on. Come in."
"Hi grandma." Rory greeted.
"Hello Rory."
"Do you think she heard us?" Lorelai whispered to Rory as they walked into the living room.
"I don't know."
"She was obviously listening. Right?"
Rory shrugged and the sat down on the couch. Richard appeared out his study to greet everyone.
"Hello girls." He greeted.
"Hi grandpa."
"Hey dad."
"So, what drinks can I get for everyone?"
"Martini." Lorelai said.
"Manhattan." Emily said.
"Rory we have Pepsi. Is that alright?"
"Yes that fine. Thanks grandpa."
"So, Rory, how's school?" Emily asked.
"School's good. It's hard, but good."
"Yes, well they always challenge you at Chilton."
"Yes they do."
"Here we are." Richard said.
He handed the drinks to everyone and sat down in a chair next to Emily.
"So, Lorelai how are things with you?" Emily asked.
"Good."
"And the inn?"
"Good."
"Any men in your life right now?"
Lorelai almost chocked on her olive when she heard the question.
"Nope."
"Are you capable of giving complete sentence answers?"
"Yes, mother. I am."
"You should get back out there, you know."
"I know mom, thanks."
"I realize your recent ruined relationship is hard to get over, but you must move on."
"I know mom. Really I got it."
"Alright."
"Dinner is ready." A maid said.
"Thank you Shrieva." Emily said as she led everyone into the dining room.
------
"I hate Fridays!" Lorelai yelled as she walked into Luke's.
"So dinner went well?" He asked.
"It was fine. I guess. My mother doesn't think I can get a man."
"I see."
"She thinks I'm still hung up on Max."
"Right."
"But I'm not. I'm hung up on someone else."
"Really?"
"Yeah." She leaned in and kissed him.
"So, I guess it's me, huh?"
"You're a quick one."
She leaned in again and kissed him again. This kiss was deeper and longer. He reached around and put his hands on her back and pulled her closer.
"This counter has to go. It only gets in the way." She said.
"Or…" He walked around to stand next to her. "I can just do that."
"I guess that's good too."
She jumped up and sat on top of the counter.
"People eat there, ya know?" He said.
"I know. But I've always wanted to make out like this."
"Ok."
He placed his hands on her hips and wrapped her arms around her neck. They kissed softly at first, but the kisses became longer and harder. She tilted her head back and he began kissing her neck and she let out a soft moan of satisfaction. He was pushing her back so she put her hands on the counter to hold her up.
"Are you trying to push me over?" She asked breathlessly.
"Sorry."
He turned her so that she was lying down on the counter.
"Luke…"
He crawled on top of her and began kissing her again.
"People eat here ya know." She said.
"I know. But I've always wanted to make out like this."
She smiled and resumed kissing him. She wrapped her legs around his and ran her fingers through his hair. She couldn't think of a time she had enjoyed this so much. It was so spur of the moment. So romantic.
Outside Miss Patty was walking past the diner when she saw Luke and Lorelai making out on the counter. Her eyes widened and she ran back to her studio to tell everyone what was happening.
Luke and Lorelai were completely oblivious to this. They were just focusing on each other and how great it felt.
A few minutes later Lorelai decided it was time to stop. She didn't really want to, but she didn't want to do everything so soon.
"Let's save some for tomorrow." She said.
"Ok." He said as he climbed off of her.
She jumped off the counter and grabbed her purse.
"That was amazing."
"Yes it was."
"I never knew you were so dirty."
"I'm not dirty."
"Luke, we just made out on top of your counter."
"Yeah, well, I wasn't about to just let you leave."
"And I'm glad for that."
"I'll see ya tomorrow?"
"Definitely."
She gave him another quick peck on the lips and left the diner.
The next morning Lorelai and Rory walked into Luke's for some breakfast and they kept getting weird looks form everyone.
"What is going on?" Rory asked as they sat down.
"I have no idea." Lorelai said.
"Did we commit a crime or something?"
"Maybe they just think we're so pretty and they want to gaze upon our beauty."
"Right. That's it." Rory said sarcastically.
"What can I get you?" Luke asked.
"Pancakes and coffee please." Lorelai said.
"Same for me please."
"Do you know what's up with everyone?" Lorelai asked Luke.
"No. But Patty keeps giving me a weird look."
"I know. Everyone is looking at us weird."
"Whatever. There all on medication anyway." Luke said. "I go get your food."
"Lorelai, I have to know. How was it?" Patty asked as she walked over to the table.
"How was what?"
"Luke. I can't even imagine. Oh, that ass."
"Whoa whoa. What?"
"I saw you and Luke getting' busy on the counter last night."
"That explains the looks." Rory said.
"So, this may be a stupid question, but does the whole town know?" Lorelai aksed.
"Of course they know, honey."
"Right. Great."
"So, how was…" She was interrupted by Luke coming with their food.
He placed the food on the table and looked at Patty.
"Can I help you?" He asked.
"Oh no honey. I'm fine."
"Ok…"
"Tell me later." Patty said as she left.
Lorelai slammed her head on the table.
"Oh no."
"Mom, come on. You knew it was going to come out eventually."
"She saw me and Luke making out on the counter."
"Yes."
"This was not your average make out. This was…it would have gone all the way if I hadn't stopped it."
"Whoa ok. You can stop there."
"Oh geeze. I can't believe this."
"Eat your pancakes."
"That was…it was really…different. I mean it felt so real. So right."
"Sorry mom."
"Maybe at the next festival we can just make out in the square and have everyone watch us."
"As long as we can charge admission."
Lorelai glared at her daughter.
"They are just excited. The whole town knows you're perfect for each other."
"Whatever."
"I'm gonna go to Lane's. I'll see ya later."
"Ok. See ya later."
After Rory left Lorelai walked over to the counter and sat down.
"They know." She said.
"They know what?"
"They know about us."
"Who? The town?"
"Yep."
"How?"
"Patty saw us last night."
"Ah geeze."
"Yeah. So naturally the whole town knows."
"Of course."
"Well it was worth it."
"It was pretty good."
"Yes it was."
"I guess I can do this now."
He kissed her softly.
"Yes you can. By the way Patty likes your ass."
"What?"
"Yeah she told me."
"Ah geeze."
"I'll try not to get jealous."
"Right…"
"I know you've always had your eye on her."
"See ya tonight."
"Yep. And bring that fabulous ass with you."
