Chapter 7: Green Eyes

Rory's P.O.V.

The kiss continues until suddenly my work phone begins to ring. I hear Jess grunt as I pull away and quickly answer it.

"Hello?" I ask with a surprisingly normal tone. "I'll be right there." I inform my boss after he explains the reason for his call and then I hang up. "I'm sorry but I have to go." I tell Jess. "The president is giving a speech at a function tonight and the guy that was supposed to cover it got sick, so I have to. I'm sorry." I explain to him.

"It's fine." He replies and I stand up before walking into the bathroom to make myself presentable. Once I'm done and I exit the bathroom, Jess has already gathered his things. "I guess I better get going. We'll catch up some more another time okay?" He says to me and I nod with a small smile. After he leaves I grab my bag and hotel room key and leave to go to work after glancing at the clock which reads 11:46 pm.

Lorelai's P.O.V.

As I walk through my familiar inn I watch as people try to fix the mess that Michelle made yesterday. When I enter the kitchen Sookie spots me and greets me.

"Good morning!" she says.

"Morning! Coffee?" I ask.

"Just brewed some." she nods toward the coffee maker and I go get myself a cup. "So what was wrong with Michelle yesterday? Why'd he go all crazy?" she inquires. I take a sip before answering her.

"He is losing his house." I inform her before taking another sip.

"What? Why?" she wonders in a surprised tone.

"He bet a bunch of money of some cosmetology thing and now he needs a place to stay."

"Where's he gonna go?"

"My house." I sigh.

"Really?" she asks, surprised again. "How did that happen?"

"I felt bad, Rory's room is empty, there ya go." I explain.

"And you're sure you can stand constant Michelle? I know I couldn't be with near him for that long."

"It'll only be for a little while. I just have to remember to stay sane." I joke.

"Ha. That'll be challenging." she jokes back. "Want anything to eat?"

"Got any chocolate?" I ask hungrily.

"Sure do. Cake, cookies, or fudge?"

"Yes." I reply with a smile.

"Right." she gets some of each on a plate and hands it to me.

"Thanks hun." I say before taking my coffee and the plate back to my desk to continue working.

Luke's P.O.V.

"What do you want to eat?" I ask Andrew.

"Omelet please." he replies, putting the menu away before shifting on his chair in front of the counter.

"Anything besides the usual?"

"Nope. Thanks." he concludes and I take the ticket to Caesar. I hear the door open and close as I continue taking orders.

"Luke I have to talk to you." I hear someone say to me.

"I'm busy Taylor." I say in an attempt to get him to go away, which he never does.

"This is an urgent matter."

"Shouldn't you be paying painters to repaint my diner?"

"It's your diner. You pay it."

"It was painted without my consent!" I yell.

"It was an accident." Taylor tries to defend.

"It was idiocy and needs to be fixed."

"Fine, I will pay for it."

"Thank you." I sigh, but wonder why he gave up so easy.

"On one condition." he says and I grunt, now knowing the reason.

"What do you want Taylor?"

"A favor." He tells me a bit too calmly.

"What?"

"A favor. I want you to owe me a favor."

"What kind of favor, Taylor?"

"I don't know yet." He says.

"Well when you figure it out, let me know and then I'll decide if I'll do it or if you'll have to pick something else." I fire.

"Deal." He replies cheerfully and then practically prances out of the diner. I just roll my eyes and continue with orders.

Rory's P.O.V.

I listen to the president talk as I quickly scribble notes all while recording him through a professional voice recorder. Once he is done I write down a few more thoughts on my notepad before I hear someone approach me.

"Wow you write fast." An unfamiliar voice tells me.

"You kind of have to when it comes to this job." I reply. Once I'm done writing I look up and see a man. I recognize him from our bus that we've been on while following the president. He usually sits two rows ahead of me.

"I couldn't agree more." He chuckles. I nod with a smile. "So you got stuck with the night shift too?" He continues.

"Unfortunately. I'm usually not the one who is but the guy apparently got sick and well, here I am." I laugh a little as I put my things back into my bookbag.

"Yeah I feel you. I have to take the 1-2 am shift tonight. I got the "the guy who's supposed to do it is sick" reason as well." He says curiously.

"Seems like there's quite a sickness going around. Wonder how much of that is coincidence." We both laugh when I say this.

"Would you like to go get a drink or something? I know it's late, but we are up and out so why the hell not?" He chuckles again. Honestly all I want to do it go to my hotel, read then sleep soon after. But, I feel like this is a good time to do some networking.

"Alright. Why not." I agree. We work our way through the thick crowd, trying to dodge limbs left and right as we walk. I let him lead me to what looks like a little cafe across the street. Once inside we sit down at a table and we both order coffee. The server brings us the cups and we thank her politely. Then there is a somewhat awkward silence.

"So what did you say your name was?" he asks, breaking the silence suddenly.

"Oh I didn't, my name is Rory. Well technically my name is Lorelai but I go by Rory." I sort of ramble. I didn't get to see his face in the dark, outside and now that we are in the light his features become clear. He has light brown, caramel hair with soft green eyes and a nice smile. He's a bit fit but not grossly. When he smiles his dimples become prominent and his eyes shine.

"Well it's nice to meet you Rory, I'm Harry." he smiles at me and it makes my heart flutter a little.
