Flowers in December, a mini series

Luke Danes x fem!reader ☕🧣🧤🌨️

Summary.

A gal in her early twenties moved to Stars Hollow three months ago and since then, Luke's Diner has practically become her second home. Twice a day, like clockwork, she's sat at a table, sipping her coffee... Not to mention all the to-go cups.

Warnings.

slow burn, jealousy, possessiveness, sexual content, big age gap, cunningulus, size kink, touch-starved!Luke, dom!Luke, virgin!reader, sassy!reader, selfish!reader, grumpy x sunshine trope, hurt, comfort, angst, feelings of inadequacy, alcohol consumption

Author's note.

Not me entering ANOTHER fandom. I can't be stopped and I so declare myself a public threat. Yep, I'm new to the Gilmore Girls fandom, so nice to meet you all! <3 Um... I just finished S1, so my knowledge isn't very broad and I'm also trying to avoid spoilers. I haven't even read any Gilmore fics... YET. Luke is Dilf material and this fic is very self indulgent… I can't help myself. But hey, maybe that is good for you 👀

Can you do a Jess Mariano blurb where the reader is helping Jess with his homework but he keeps trying to distract her by kissing her lips and neck? 😄 (think of the episode “teach me tonight” but with Jess and the reader dating and he’s kissing her like he kissed Rory in S3 EP10 when they’re walking and kissing)

a/n! took me forever ‘m sorry!!! this is also not my best work but back & writing for my boy is good enough for me. <3

the diner was quiet on the particular evening. despite the typical eight o'clock late dinner rush, the door were locked and a red 'closed' sign hung from the blue painted door. the only sound erupting throughout the small former hardware store was the sound of your voice reciting the words from the textbook balanced on your thighs. you were leaned back in your chair, your legs pressed against the table with the book pressed into them. your hair was falling in-front if your face which kept the attention of the boy who sat beside you everytime you pushed it behind your ear.  "and the trail of tears was what year?"

your head bopped up from its current slouched down position as your eyes caught glimpse of the dark haired boy sat beside you. he was leaned on the table, specifically over his book. his head rested on his palm as he held his head up from falling down in boredom.

"is your hair shorter? it looks shorter." your boyfriend was far from an idiot. but in this moment you honestly doubted him. jess was one of the smartest people you'd ever had the privilege of knowing. hell, he was way smarter than you. but here you were sat helping him with history... and geometry, and biology. it wasn't like you were the smartest person in school, but you got your fair share or a's. plus you knew how serious luke was about his nephew passing the twelfth grade. and you'd do anything to get your boyfriend on a good path.

"1828 and 1829." you explained to him simply before continuing onto the next page, him leaning closer to you. it wasn't hard for the smell of cheap cologne, cigarettes, and luke's laundry detergent to catch your attention. especially when you glanced up at your boyfriend's face far too close to your own. "i like it." he mumbled as he lightly pressed his finger to your face, pushing back the strand of hair that fell once more. no matter how long you'd been together, the small touches and glances still made you go mad. "you liked president andrew jackson's racist speech against the cherokee?"

"no," he rolled his eyes at your statement as you tried to diffuse the way he was making you feel on this tuesday evening. "your hair. it's a good length... and you know — i know all about good length."

his comment resulted in a laugh escaping your lips with a smirk growing on his face. jess felt accomplished for making you laugh, especially when you'd just spent half an hour explaining nonsense to him. "okay cmon, back to work." you ordered as he stayed in his exact position. you were about to scold him for not taking this study date seriously. but you lost time when his lips pressed to yours. your eyes immediately shut as your hands cupped his face. he deepened the kiss and leaned over the table to press into you even more. you found yourself getting lost in the kiss that warmed your soul. but before you could be taken by him, you pushed away and pressed your lips together. "jess, we're studying."

"okay we can study," he nodded as he positioned himself back on the chair and balanced a pencil between his fingers. which immediately caught your attention. "i'll start with the inside of your mouth and you can start with mine."

"jess," you hinted with a tone reaching annoyed. he let his smirk grow a bit before glancing around for a moment. "'mkay tell me more about the Indian Removal Act," he shrugged. you gave him a proud smile and muttered a "gladly" before opening the next page and reciting the next paragraph. you were only two and a half sentences in when you felt him move closer to you. and then some more... then some more.

it was when you finished the first paragraph that you felt his dark curls against your jaw as his lips connected with your neck. his arms wrapped around you as he continued to harass your neck with several kisses that would definitely leave a mark. something jess was certainly good at. "jess! we have to study!”

"no, i think you've got this stuff pretty much down." he mumbled as he pulled away for a second before you felt the feeling of his lips reaching your sweet spot. you held in a breath as you found yourself not fighting the feeling for a moment. "you need to learn this stuff if you're going to graduate, jess. please, work with me." you begged as he drew his face away slowly. just enough so that you could face one another. "and after, if you get a b... you might just get something starting with a b.”

the glow on the boy's face suddenly erupted with slightly wider eyes. he simply sat back as he sat his textbook in his lap, leaving only one arm behind your shoulders. "mkay, teach me tonight."

i can see you, 𝒈𝒊𝒍𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒆 𝒈𝒊𝒓𝒍𝒔.

✫ 𝐬𝐲𝐧𝐨𝐩𝐬𝐢𝐬 . . . y/n cromwell was nothing if not a sophisticated, pampered, and ambitious socialite. she had lived in manhattan for about five years with her workaholic mother since her divorce with from her father. in the five years she had lived in the upper-east side, she had conquered the elites and made them her minions. she was living her best life until she heard the worst news she could ever fathom...

tristan dugray was nothing like y/n, in any sense other than maybe the fact they were both rich, spoiled and rather confident - okay, maybe they had more in common than what meets the eye. they hadn't seen each other since she had moved away with her mother five years ago and they were happy that way.

until of course, her mother decided it would be best for y/n to spend the next few months with her father back in connecticut after y/n got in trouble with her friend group. what y/n didn't know until she eventually got to connecticut was that her father was engaged to none other than tristan dugray's mother. how could her year get any worse?

[wonderlandleighleigh]

Schniders in Stars Hollow Lenny arranging bouquets from flowers in his garden for his loved ones.

They eventually retire to Stars Hollow fully. Midge refuses to sell the brownstone in the city, but it's mostly for the kids and grandkids to use now.

This, of course, means that Lenny gets to tend to his garden all year round. Plants beets in the fall, and in the spring, by May, most everything is in bloom.

Probably a little too much this year, so Lenny clips and prunes and soon, the kitchen table is covered in Dahlia and tulips. Coneflower, lilies and marigolds, petunias and alium.

The roses won't pop for another month or so (in time for Midge's birthda), but there are plenty of beautiful flowers that aren't as well known to go around.

He settles a bunch into one of Midge's vases with some water and carries it into her office, settling it on the little coffee table in front of the couch she's sitting on as she takes a phone call. She beams up at him and tugs him down for a light peck, pulling away quickly. "Susie, I was not making out with Lenny."

"She was a little," he says into the phone.

"Stop trying to get me in trouble!"

He chuckles as he heads back to the kitchen. "Gonna drop off more flowers."

And he does.

*****

The Dragonfly is busy this weekend, and Lorelai grins at him from behind the front desk after handing a couple from Milwaukee the key to their room.

"Hi, Stranger, Midge kick you out?" She teases.

"Not yet," Lenny chuckles. "I wonder when she'll get around to it. No, I come with a gift." He holds out a bunch of flowers, held together with a little hemp rope.

"Oh, wow," Lorelai marvels as she takes them. "These are amazing. Let me grab a vase out of storage, these are going right here at the desk."

He chuckles as she hops off and comes right back with the promised vase, a little water in the bottom. "Rory home? She can have one, too."

"No, Rory is still in New York," she tells him. "She'll be home next weekend."

"There are always more flowers," Lenny promises. "See you later, kid."

"Bye, Lenny, thank you!"

He waves her off and heads out.

*****

He finds Liz at thr diner and hands her a batch, and she gasps, hugging them.

"I swear you're a whiz in that garden, Lenny. I don't know how you do it. I wind up killing all my flowers."

"Patience," he says. "Attention. It's like raising kids, but instead of being mouthy, flowers just wilt if they're pissy."

Liz laughs at that. "Don't get me started. Dula is four going on twenty-four, I swear."

"She's a little firecracker," Lenny agrees. "Speaking of mouthy, how is Jess?"

"Good, I think," Liz smiles. "He's been busy on that book tour, though. He's supposed to be back in another week or so."

"Yeah, he texted Midge before he left, but we haven't heard from him since," Lenny nods.

"He's fine," Luke tells them, bringing over a coffee cup and filling it for Lenny. "I annoyed him into calling me yesterday. He's in Raleigh. He'll be here next weekend after the tour wraps."

"My baby's coming home!" Liz crows. "I should cook him something special."

"You should not," Lenny tells her.

"Hey!"

He sips his coffee. "Buy him a nice sweater. For the love of God, do not cook."

"What he said," Luke agrees. "Don't I get flowers?"

"You don't own a vase," Lenny reminds him. "Until you buy one, you don't get flowers."

*****

Babbette and Mory get a bunch. Miss Patty, too, against his better judgement. Taylor gets a few. Kirk is allergic to everything so he gets none. He drops a batch off with Jackson for him and Sookie.

He's tired when he gets home. Winded in the way that comes with old age. He blows out a breath and wanders around, finding Midge in the kitchen.

"How'd it go?" She asks.

"Fine. Rory and Jess will both be home next weekend," he informs her.

"I'll have to do up a nice dinner for them," Midgr grins.

"I know that grin, Mrs. Bruce."

Midge smirks. "Do you, Mr. Weissman?"

"Oh yes," Lenny nods. "That is a look much like your mother used to give when she thought she was being terribly clever about her matchmaking."

"I have no idea what you mean."

Lenny chuckles. "Of course you don't."

“I just can’t do it anymore, I can’t handle everything all on my own. I was supposed to have people, wasn’t I? And where are they? Why aren’t they helping me, why didn’t they want me? Why didn’t anyone love me enough to keep me? Why am I killing myself just to prove a point to the universe that I’m—I’m worthy of something, that I’m not bothered by it when I’m so bothered, and I don’t get it, I don’t get how anyone can just give their kid up like they don’t matter. What did I do wrong, y’know? What’s wrong with me?”

Jess pulls her back into him, and he says, “Nothing,” with so much conviction it almost knocks the wind out of her. “Nothing is wrong with you.”

“Something has to be,” Rory sniffles. “I’m defective and they could smell it on me.”

“You’re not defective.”

“Then why didn’t they want me?”

[zoya-withthepoodlesalready]

A fun cut scene from my java junkie fic on AO3, accidentally (how'd we go from friends to this?)

Lorelai's eyes well with tears, and her dream from months ago flies into her head with a surprising amount of force. She and Luke, in a kitchen together, with Rory and another kid on the way. It actually almost scares her now, how beautiful that dream feels. She can't feel that way about Luke, he's her best friend, the person who's saved her life in a million little ways. She'd ruin things if she tried to be with him like that.

"Are you alright?" Luke asks worriedly, kneeling beside the bed. "Do you need one of the nurses? I can get you more ice chips if you want to throw them again. Or-"

She shakes her head, afraid to speak.

But fear loosens her throat, makes her words spill out before she can even try to stop them. "I'm sorry for making you do all this stuff for me and making you think you had to drop everything to be here for me. Please tell me you were dating or something while I wasn't there, because I can't stand the thought of ruining your life and-"

"Lorelai." Luke puts his hand on top of hers, so that little Rory's leg is now covered. His voice is firm and when his other hand brushes back hair from her damp forehead, she almost sobs again. "Before I met you, I was living like a hermit above my diner. I mean, how many twenty year old hermits do you know?"

Sniffing, Lorelai answers with the ghost of a smile, "Just you."

He shrugs as if he's grown accustomed to this. "Exactly. I was lonely, you know? And don't get me wrong, for the most part I was okay with that because I think most people are stupid. But…" his gaze drops to Rory, snug against Lorelai's chest, like he can't look at her for this. "But then I met you. And sure, you talk more than everyone I know combined and your obsession with coffee is just ridiculous. But… you reminded me that… not all people are bad, I guess."

From Luke Danes, this is practically a declaration of love. Lorelai glances down at Rory too, watches her tiny chest move up and down as she breathes. This is Luke, she mentally tells her daughter. This is the most important person in the world to me and I know you're gonna love him.

Luke is still looking at Rory, awe in his eyes. Lorelai presses her lips against his cheek, soft as a butterfly. She watches his gaze flicker back to her, a grin appearing for a beautiful moment. "I think you're a great guy, Luke Danes," she says softly.

He lifts a shoulder again. Shrugging, combined with a hesitant flush of his cheeks, seems to be his way of combating emotion. "You're not too bad yourself," he teases.

[wonderlandleighleigh]

Lenny officiating a stars hollow wedding

(in an alt universe where these dumbdumbs get married in season 7)

"Thank fuck, you've both made it here."

Lorelai giggles as she hands her bouquet to Rory, and Luke drops his head, shaking it in mirth.

He grins at them both kindly and clears his throat. "We're gathered here at this gazebo to celebrate the love of Luke and Lorelai. Love is a big, important, weird thing. It sneaks up on you when you least expect it, but you need it the most."

Midge smiles at him from her seat next to Liz and TJ.

"Sometimes it comes on fast, and sometimes it takes time," Lenny goes on. "I think it's best when it takes a little while. You question it less. You know it's the real deal because that feeling developed over time. It's not fleeting. It's with you, and it's not going anywhere."

Lorelai beams at Lenny before looking at Luke, who only seems to have eyes for her.

"Sometimes, there are hardships. Sometimes things don't always go as you planned. Love isn't about planning. It's about weathering the hardship and the overturned plans together. And the two of you have certainly done that. I've known both of you since you were kids, and when you met each other, it was obvious to everyone watching that there was something there. It was a joy - sometimes a terribly frustrating joy - but a joy to watch it unfold."

Rory giggles from next to Lorelai, and gets a playfully pointed look from her mother. Jess, for his part, rolls his eyes from next to Luke.

"So finally," Lenny goes on. "Here we are, in front of friends, family, and God, if they're up there, to witness the next step."

Emily huffs softly and leans into Richard, whispering softly. "I don't know why they decided on Lenny to officiate. He's too witty."

Richard pats her hand and shushes her gently.

"So let's get to these vows," Lenny grins.

They do, reciting the given vows one after the other, exchanging rings.

Lenny clears his throat again, this time to clear out the emotion from his throat. "Now, I'm going to assume that there isn't anyone present looking to object to these nuptials?"

He gets no response.

"Thank god. By the power vested in me by the states of New York and Connecticut, I now pronounced you married! Kiss!"

They do, and the large assembled group cheers.

[frazzledsoul]

Allowed?

A long, long time ago, I put out some asks for fanfics I was half-heartedly writing. I randomly decided today that I was going to work on them some more, so I'm digging out this old ask.

From an unfinished chapter of my Luke-and-Lorelai-rebuild-their-relationship-in-the-wake-of-the-series-finale-and-are-fine-with-not-getting-married-or having-kids story, Boundaries, wherein Luke, Lorelai, and April visit Jess at Truncheon Books in late summer of 2007:

Lorelai was reminded of herself when she started running the front desk at the Independence. Rory had been in the third grade at that point. Sure, she had kept Rory fed and clothed and amused and loved for six years all by herself but becoming a professional woman had been a struggle she had to overcome bit by bit until it eventually felt like it was hers. She wasn’t the outcast teenage mom or the maid all of the other kids hated because she was allowed to live on the property or the person who was barely learning how to work in in an office. She was an independent, accomplished individual who finally had succeeded at being something other than Rory’s mother. It had felt good to know she could do it and prove to everyone else that they had been wrong about her.

Her parents had never really accepted it.

Lorelai could fully understand why Luke had been so proud of him, even as he adamantly refused to consider that any of his influence had worn off of Jess.

However, there was one place that Jess refused to let any of them go near.

April retreated to a bookshelf to read as Lorelai pointed in the direction of the loft upstairs.

Luke scoffed. “Trust me, you don’t want to go up there.”

Lorelai glanced over at April who chuckled and shook her head.

“Didn’t Liz and T.J and your baby sister stay with you earlier this summer?” Lorelai asked.

“Yeah, and that’s why the entire place still stinks of lavender and patchouli six weeks later,” Chris remarked from his desk.

“Lightly scented Lorelai squalor is worse than regular squalor?” April asked from behind them.

“The smell of baby vomit on top of everything else didn’t help,” Matt said as he strolled by and retreated into the back office.

“It’s not – “ Jess defended himself. “I never should have let you guys up there back in November,” he remarked.

“Oh, I’m sure it’s not half as bad as what our apartment looked like before we knocked that wall down,” Luke said, putting an end to that strain of conversation. He picked up a photo on Jess’s desk. “Is this new?”

“Yup,” Jess confirmed as Luke turned the photo around so that April and Lorelai could see. Jess sat in an armchair, an infant Doula on his lap wearing an oversized War on Drugs T-shirt as he read to her from a copy of Allen Ginsburg’s Kaddish and Other Poems.

“Oh, that’s adorable,” Lorelai said. “That’s going to totally sully your reputation around here.”

“Liz run out of baby clothes?” Luke asked.

“They were only supposed to stay six days,” Jess replied. “They hung around for ten. If my buddy Kurt hadn’t given me some extra shirts, I was going to have to wrap her up in some old work uniforms.”

“And the early education on the Beats?” Lorelai asked. “There’s nothing wrong with broadening her horizons early,” Jess retorted.

If anyone else wants to read the rest of the story, it's told from Lorelai's POV and is mostly Luke and Lorelai hashing out their baggage. I told the story I wanted to tell, but it was divisive, to put it mildly, because I didn't go easy on Lorelai at all.

I'm not sure if or when I'll finish the rest of it, but it's there.
