ok here we go! ENJOY:)
"It's about Jess...he…he's back" Luke said nervously, waiting for her reaction.
Lorelai remained silent in shock. His statement playing over again in her head.
"Lorelai?" Luke asked.
"What…What do You mean, 'He's back'?" She managed to say, looking him in the eyes, trying to find the answer.
Luke took a deep breath, closed his eyes for a second to concentrate on how to explain it all to her.
"Well…he was waiting for me in the diner" He started. "This morning when I came back from...from the inn" Luke smiled shyly remembering what had exactly made him stay at the inn all night.
"Ok so he came to you…and?" Lorelai tried to understand it all.
"He...he asked me if he could stay" Luke said sincerely and paused closing his eyes. Then added: "And… I…I agreed he could" He finally admitted looking back at her.
"You…you did what?" she asked more shocked than before, not wanting to belive what was happening.
"I told him he could stay here" Luke repeated adding. "But under some conditions!" Luke saw she wasn't liking this idea at all... "Listen Lorelai, I know you're not thrilled about it..."
"Not thrilled!" She cut him off "Luke for God's sake! This kid is a punk! Hes nothing but trouble! No-one can control him, not even you! You know how it all ended last time and still you want to risk it all again?" she was breathing heavily now. "What if something worse happens this time? Huh? Did you think about that?" She was getting really mad now.
"How on earth could he agree to such thing? What was he thinking? Now that we FINALLY started something together, hes doing something that stupid, that can tear us apart again!" Lorelai thought
"Ok Lorelai! I understaind you! I know hes not your favourite person in the world..."
"The hell he isn't!"
"But please try to understand!" Please Lorelai! How can you not understand me? "He is my familly! He needs me! He's the one that had came to me! He's not doing this because his mother or anyone else had forced him to…he really needs me there"
"Yeah I know one thing...well one person that made him want to come back here...Unfortunately" Lorelai added in her mind.
"Luke just please think about it again! Do you really think he's going to listen to you? Hes a punk hes not going to change! "
"I need to try, ok! I just need! He's my family!" Luke repeated. "Family is all we have, the most important thing" He took a deep breath. "I can't turn him down just because my girlrfiend thinks that there's no hope for him."
"Girlfriend ? Lorelai Gilmore is my girlfriend?" Luke thought.
"Well it's not saying much that my boyfriend is not even going to consider my opinion, and what I'm thinking about this all." Lorelai stated back. "A boyfriend? Luke as my boyfriend ? Are we at this level ?" She thought too.
"Of course I'm considering your opinion" Luke tried not to get any madder. Why can't she understand me and what I'm saying?
"No Luke! I don't think you do." She crossed her arms in front of her, defensively.
"Ok, if you're going to act that way, then there is nothing for us to talk about!"
With that Luke turned around ad walked away.
Lorelai sighed heavily, trying to calm herself down
'Whatjust happened? Everything was so perfect just few hours ago? Then first Hurricane Emily and now this!' Lorelai closed her eyes and then went in the direction of where she was going to meet Rory before the wedding started.
"I can't believe this!" Luke muttered to himself, walking really fast. One second everything is better than ever and another everything is falling apart. He thought.
He really couldn't believe Lorelai didn't understand what he was doing, she didn't even want to try. All he wanted right now was to leave as fast as possible. But to his horror Miss Patty and Babette appeared before him.
"Oh Jeez" Luke thought. "Not this right now..."
"Hello doll" they greeted him.
"Hi" he replied dryly, He desperately wanted to avoid this "confrontation", definitely not in a mood for this right now.
"You look great honey" Patty winked at him. "Who would have thought we'd see you here in a suit? And that shirt! Great colour for you, and look at this! It's even matching someone else's dress..."
And here we go. Luke sighed.
"Oh by the way, where is the beautiful woman herself?" Babette raised an eyebrow at Luke.
"I dont know, somewhere there" Luke said and motioned his hand in the direction of the crowd of the guests, not looking at them.
"Oh" was all they said.
"You made a hell of a show" Miss Patty pointed after a second.
Luke just rolled his eyes.
"We're proud of you sweety" Babette added.
"Finally" Patty smile, patting Luke on the shoulder.
"Yeah right, listen..."Luke started.
"We knew it was going to happen sooner or later! We just hoped it would be sooner, but it's still great" Babette cut him off, Miss Patty nodded her head.
"Yes it is, but…" Luke tried again, wanting to end this conversation. But then they heard the music started playing again, informing everyone that the wedding was about to start.
Luke wanted to keep walking but Patty grabbed his shoulder.
"Oh come on doll it's starting" Babette said, pulling Luke with them. He couldnt help it, so he just gave in and went with them.
As everyone settled, ready and waiting for the bride, the reverend mentioned for them to stand up. As the music started to play Lorelai and Rory walked down the aisle.
Lorelai was smiling brightly at everyone, not wanting show that something was wrong, or think about what happened between her and Luke. She thought he wasnt going to stay at the wedding and had left a long time ago, but then she spotted him sitting there and looking slightly at her, acting like he didn't want her to see that.
She really tried to understand him. She knew how important family was for him and how much he believed that Jess could become a normal person one day. But Lorelai still couldnt forget that Jess was the one involved when Rory ended in the ER with broken wrist. She really thought that Rory was the real reason for Jess to want to stay in Stars Hollow. And the only thing she wanted and always had was to protect her daughter.
When the ceremony started Lorelai tried to turn around a little and steal a glance at Luke, he looked really great in his suit, and she still couldn't stop thinking about what was under all this clothes.
Stop that Gilmore! Its Sookie's wedding, concentrate! Its not the most important thing how great Luke looks naked! Voices in her head reminded her. But he does look great without clothes on! She added. But still you can't think about it Lorelai, you're mad at him remember? The voice insisted.
Just then for her surprise she found Luke staring back at her with the same intensity.
Now she knew one thing no matter what just happened the last thing the wanted was to fight with him or lose him and end what they just had started together as a couple.
God forbid that. She thought. Maybe with Rory in Washington we can survive this after all...?
After the ceremony all the guests and the newly married couple went to a place in the yard where the reception was going to take place.
Both Luke and Lorelai hadn't talked since their dissagrement, and Lorelai thought she needed to make the first move to finish it.
Just as Jackson and Sookie started their first dance, she walked to Luke who was standing near the bar. After the ceremony he decided to stay at the reception. It would be rude to leave without saying something to Sookie or Jackson, and he hoped that maybe he will find a way to talk to Lorelai.
"Hey" she said to him quitely.
"Hi" he replied.
"Listen Luke I'm..." Lorelai started.
"I'm sorry" Luke cut her off. He thought about it all during the wedding. He knew she was somehow right. He had no power over Jess, he couldn't control him in any way, but still he wanted, he needed so much to try and help the kid. But he didn't want to fight with Lorelai as well. It was too good to screw things up in the very beginning.
"No Luke, I am sorry, I shouldnt have reacted like that" She said looking him in the eyes. "I know how much you want to help him, but still I couldn't forget what happened before. I just don't want him to hurt anyone else, Rory…or...you" She added shyly in the end.
"I know" Luke smiled relieved. "I don't want it either. But I need to try again."
"I know that. That's what makes you such a great guy" she grinned at him as she ran her hand run down his muscular chest. Oh God! His body is wonderful. She thought.
Luke looked at her enjoying her touch:
"So…are we ok now?" he ask looking her straight in the eyes.
"Yeah we are" she replied looking up at him. Their eyes locked. Both wanted nothing more than just feel the other one's lips. They couldn't help this feeling so they did it. They met in a sweet, long kiss… they soon wanted to deepen the kiss, but they heard people behind them.
"Aren't they adorable together" Miss Patty said pointing at the couple before her.
"Oh these two crazy kids are so cute" Babette confirmed
Luke and Lorelai broke apart. And Luke rolled his eyes at the comments of the towns gossips queens.
"Aw Jeez" he started to feel unconfortable with Miss Patty and Babette watching their every move.
"Oh we don't want to interrupt you two" Miss Patty smiled. "Carry on"
Luke shook his head and Lorelai laughed at him as his face turned a little red.
Just then everyone heard
"Everyone who would like to, Sookie and Jackson will be happy if you'll join them on the dance floor."
Both Luke and Lorelai hadn't made a move, still standing near each other.
"Oh Luke! You should ask Lorelai to dance!" they heard Babette again.
"Jeez" Luke muttered under his breath. Lorelai looked at him with an expectant look.
"It would be nice to dance with Luke. I wonder how he dances?" Lorelai thought wanting to feel his strong arms around her once again.
"Yeah Luke, you two should definitely dance" Miss Patty encouraged him too.
Luke just rolled his eyes and then looked at Lorelai, not knowing what to say. Sure he wanted to dance with her, feel her in his arms again. But he knew everyone would be watching them together.
It's not like you haven't kissed Lorelai infront of everyone. Twice! Just do it Danes! It can't be that bad right. You know you want it! He heard a voice in his head.
He looked at her again at took a deep breath.
"Lorelai?" he started.
"Yes?" she said with a small smile.
"Would...would you like to dance? With me?" He finally asked.
Lorelai smiled brightly taking his hand.
"I thought you would never ask" she replied as he took her on the dance floor.
He put one of his arms on her waist bringing her closer to him. She put then her hand around his shoulder as he took her other hand with his. They swayed to the sounds of the music. Feeling calm and right in each others arms. They hadn't heard or seen people pointing at the two of them. Again there was only Luke and Lorelai. She put her head on his shoulder, near his neck, closing her eyes and savouring the perfect moment.
"Everything is going to be fine" They both thought.
