“Wow, your babies are gonna look really pretty!” Mia smirked in Luke’s direction “Excuse me?” “I said-“ “No I heard what you said, but I didn’t quite catch the joke there!” “There was none, I’m totally serious” “MIA!” Luke looked at her incredulously “There’s nothing there, honestly!” “Lucas, I’ve known you for almost your entire life so don’t try to bullshit me here. I’ve seen the sparkle in your eye and the expression on your face when you look at her, I notice the way you smile at her, you hardly ever smile at anyone. So don’t tell me there’s nothing there!” he sighed, she knew him too well

“Look, Mia, she’s out of my league. She’s a goddamn high-society lady and what am I? A diner-owner who can barely make enough money to keep himself alive! She could have any guy she wanted, I mean: look at her, she’s dazzling, she’s smart, she’s funny… She sure as hell would never choose me, what would her friends say if they knew she dated a poor guy like me! And it would never work out cause she could never be sure if I’m just in it for her money and there would be constant mistrust in our relationship.” “Whatever you say Lucas…..” Mia trailed off and walked towards the door. With her hand on the doorknob she turned around “…but you can never decide where Cupid decides to strike” she smiled at him and closed the door behind her.

Half an hour later, Lorelai had changed from suit into her light blue “I heart PHD” T-shirt and some Capri Jeans and walked back to the Diner. Luke was just busy with a customer but couldn’t help but notice her stepping inside; seeing her casually attired was something new to him but he didn’t mind at all. Lorelai spotted Luke with a customer and gave him a quick wave. He finished taking the order and handed it to Caesar. “Are you gonna be okay here Caesar? Alone?” he asked for the umpteenth time today “YES and now get the hell outta here before I have to kick you you-know-where!”
So Luke complied and joined Lorelai outside. He offered her his arm and she wound hers around his. “Soooo, where are we going now?” “Aaah yeah I haven’t really decided on this one yet, cause there’s not much to do around Stars Hollow, so I figured I’ll just make up the schedule as we go along” “Sounds fair to me” He could take me to a garbage dump, I wouldn’t even notice let alone mind

“Okay, there’s the gazebo over here” he pointed towards it
“It’s really old and we rarely use it, but it’s nice to look at. Over there’s Miss Patty’s, she’s a dance instructor and probably the most gossipy woman in town next to Babette. But I’ll tell her about Babette when we pass her house. This is the Stars Hollow High, I only went 3 years, then I transferred to Chilton ‘cause I got this scholarship and I really enjoyed it there, you know, uniforms, no peer pressure where clothing is concerned and so on. Anyway, they have a killer hockey team, so if you’re interested in sports-“ “I’m not” Lorelai interrupted immediately “Oookay, not interested in sports. Wow. How can you not be interested in sports?” “Aaah, I’m no guy?” “No kidding! Thank God you pointed that out, I wouldn’t have noticed it!” he smiled at her and she couldn’t help bit grin back at him lop-sided.
