A/N: Sorry for the long wait. Is it just me or now that this school year started, people rarely update anymore…Last year, people updated all the time in the school year, maybe its because Gilmore girls ended already. But still it's sad…
So yeah… am I the only one who noticed?
Rory and Lorelai returned to the Diner later that night, but it was already closed.
"I guess your father already went home." Lorelai shrugged.
"Yeah well, come on. I can show you where it is." Rory told her as they got back into Lorelai's car.
Rory guided Lorelai to their house, and they both got out of the car when they reached it.
"This is where you grew up?" Lorelai asked amazed.
"For most of my life." Rory shrugged.
"You lived somewhere else?" Lorelai asked.
"Yeah, I guess you could say that." Rory told her quietly.
"Hm…can't imagine your dad living anywhere but here." Lorelai mumbled quietly. "I love your house though. Very cozy." Lorelai smiled.
"Yeah. I like it too! Come on inside." Rory said pulling Lorelai into the house.
"Dad! We're home!" Rory yelled.
"Honey! We're home." Lorelai laughed as she looked down at Rory who was giggling.
Luke appeared at the foyer with an apron wrapped around his waist. Lorelai tried to hide her smile but couldn't help but laugh. Luke just rolled his eyes and bent down so Rory could hug him.
"Daddy!" Rory shrieked as she ran into her fathers' arms. Lorelai smiled as she watched the display.
"Hey there kiddo, how was your day?" Luke asked.
"Great! We went to the music store, and then we went to eat and then we went to the movies, and Lorelai took me around Hartford, and we went to the mall, and guess what! Sookie was there too!" Rory said all in one breath.
"Wow, breathe." Luke instructed her. Rory smiled and took a deep breath in through her nose.
"Daddy! You're making spaghetti?" Rory asked.
"Just for you, there are some cookies on the counter, you can have one, but only one." Luke warned her. Rory gave him a devious smile, but walked off quickly.
"Thanks a lot, you gave her coffee!" Luke said folding his arms across his chest.
Lorelai smirked. "Now why would I give a young girl coffee?" Lorelai said innocently.
Luke shook his head. "Junkie. And now you are turning my daughter into a junkie." Luke told her.
"She was a junkie LONG before I met her." Lorelai told him.
"If you say so." Luke said. Lorelai smiled and walked closer toward him.
"So…I hope she wasn't any trouble." Luke told Lorelai.
"No, she's great." Lorelai smiled.
"That she is." Luke nodded. Luke leaned closer in and they were centimeters apart.
"DAD!" They both jumped away at the sound of Rory's voice.
" Yeah?" Luke asked.
"I'm hungry! Can I get some spaghetti?" Rory asked.
" Yeah sure, I will be right there." Luke called back, and turned back to Lorelai who was blushing red.
" Uhm…I should…probably go." Lorelai said pointing toward the door.
"Wait, uh. Want to stay for dinner?" Luke asked.
"Is the food good?" Lorelai asked with a big grin.
"Well, I do own a successful diner, that you eat at 3 times a day."
"Who says I go for the food?" Lorelai flirted. Luke blushed and looked down. Lorelai leaned in closer and said right above a whisper. " I go for the coffee." And with that Lorelai was pulling back.
"Sorry, but I've got dinner with the parents. But, I will see you Friday right?" Lorelai asked biting on her lower lip.
"Yes. Most definitely." Luke nodded.
"Meet you in the lobby of the inn?" Lorelai asked.
"Seven?"
"Sounds good." Lorelai nodded and walked out of the house.
30 minutes later. Lorelai burst into her parent's house and immediately ran to the living room to find her dad reading on the couch.
"Where's mom?" Lorelai asked frantically.
"Hello to you too Lorelai." Richard said looking up from the newspaper.
"Hi Dad." Lorelai sighed. " Where's mom?"
" Upstairs, she is running abnormally late tonight." Richard said returning to the paper. Lorelai run up the stairs to her mother's room.
"Oh my gosh Mom!" Lorelai yelled.
"Lorelai! Inside voice." Emily told her.
"Jeez, you would think parents would stop bugging their kids after they hit the age 25!" Lorelai laughed.
Emily rolled her eyes. " With you anything is possible."
" I don't know if I should take that as compliment or an insult." Lorelai smiled. "Anyways I spent the day with the most amazing little girl mom. She is so intelligent I was able to actually carry on a conversation with this 8 year old." Lorelai laughed.
" Maybe it's because you still act 8." Emily joked.
"Gee, thanks mom. Well, anyways, her father is the most gorgeous man I have ever seen!" Lorelai gushed as she fell onto her parent's bed.
"Lorelai! The maid just made the bed." Emily sighed.
"Sorry." Lorelai sat up. "He asked me out! We're going out Friday night!" Lorelai smiled.
"That's wonderful Lorelai." Emily smiled.
"Yeah, and he is wonderful mom. He lives in the town I live in." Lorelai smiled.
"Oh so you just met him?" Emily asked
"Well, I met him a week ago or so. But I see him three times a day." Lorelai laughed.
"Why so much?" Emily asked.
"Because he owns the local diner." Lorelai laughed.
"Diner?" Emily said raising an eyebrow.
" Yep, with the most amazing coffee." Lorelai told her mother.
Emily rolled her eyes. " Well I can't wait to meet him, and his wonderful daughter." Emily smiled.
"You will love them!" Lorelai gushed.
Friday came, and Lorelai was so nervous.
"Hello?" Emily said as she answered her cell phone, she was in a fancy bathroom.
" Mom! Oh my gosh! I have no idea what to do! What if I make a complete fool out of myself?" Lorelai hit her hand against her forehead.
"Lorelai, I can't talk long. We are at the Barnette's house for dinner, but since when do you get nervous?" Emily asked.
"Since I met Luke." Lorelai told her mother.
"Oh Lorelai, don't be silly, if he is as nice as you said, than I am sure he is a smart boy, and if he is a smart boy, than he will love you." Emily told her daughter.
"You sure?" Lorelai bit her lip.
"Yes." Emily smiled.
" Thanks mom. Bye." Lorelai hung up.
An hour later Lorelai walked out into the lobby and looked around and saw Luke in the corner talking to an elder lady who she assumed to be Mia, the owner. Luke smiled and waved Lorelai over.
"Hey." Lorelai greeted him.
"Hey. Lorelai, this is Mia, Mia this is Lorelai." Luke introduced them.
" Hello, Lucas was telling me about how your moving here." Mia smiled.
"Yeah! I am." Lorelai nodded.
"You should go check the town homes on peach. They are just beautiful!" Mia told her.
"I will." Lorelai smiled.
"Well, we better go." Luke guided Lorelai to the foyer of the inn..
" So where we going?" Lorelai asked.
" A very special place for me and Rory." Luke smiled as he opened the door for her as they exited in Inn.
Lorelai smiled as he walked out the door, Lorelai turned back to him and smiled.
" You have great eyes." Lorelai blurted out as she started into his eyes.
He grinned. "Yours are prettier." Luke smiled as he moved closer to her.
" Before we start "your pretty, no you're prettier." Will you just kiss me," Lorelai laughed.
" As you say." Luke smiled and leaned in and kissed her passionately. And that's where they shared their first kiss, on the steps of the independence inn.
