A/N: Hey guys this is my first story and I would really like some reviews. Good bad, doesn't matter. I just want reviews. Now I know this is done a lot, but give it a chance. I also need title ideas and pairings.
Note: This is completely different from the actual show. Lorelai and Rory moved to Stars Hallow and Lorelai met Luke and they got married and now live at their house. Rory never dated Jess or Dean. Dean would always try to get her to go out with him, but she wouldn't. Jess is her best friend and step-cousin. Jess would beat Dean up for bothering Rory.
Chapter 1- The visit
I am so excited; today I am graduating from Chilton Boarding School in France. My mom, step-dad, dad, my best friend/ step-cousin and my grandparents, Richard and Emily Gilmore, were all flying to France for it.
Ring. Ring.
"Ug! Where the hell is my cell- SHIT!!"
From my position on the floor I could hear footstep and my door opening. I had been in the middle of packing my last boxes when my cell phone had rung. I heard someone trying to stifle their giggles. Looking up, I saw my three room mates, Paris, Louise, and Madeline trying not to laugh. I glared at them and they broke out laughing. Paris was leaning on Louis and Madeline was rolling on the floor laughing her head off.
"Shut up, you guys!" I whined from the floor, "It isn't funny!"
This, of course, just causes them to laugh even harder.
"What happened," Paris asked as she helped me off the ground.
"I was packing up the last of my boxes when my phone rang, and I couldn't find it, so I was trying to get to it when I tripped over the bed and fell. UHHH! I still can't find my…"
Paris picked up my cell phone off of the bedside table and waved it around.
"Oh… Thanks."
Ring. Ring.
I picked up the phone.
"Hello?"
"Bonjour, mini-me!!" My mom, shouted back at me.
"Hey mom. Are you guys here yet?" I asked
"Yes, plus a few extra people." She said really fast, but used to it I understood.
"Who?" I asked suspiciously.
"Well, your father had some business he has to take care of in Paris, so he had to bring some of his 'people' with him, to help him."
"Oh, come on!!" I groaned, "Can't he take a little break every once in a while."
"I know babycakes, but he is just doing this so he can get rich, and buy you all kinds of expensive things. By the way, you want a pair of Jimmy Choos, size 6 1/2 . Got it?"
"Got it," I laughed.
"Well we are stuck in traffic right now so we won't be able to see you before you graduate but you will definitely be there to embarrass you when you receive your diploma thingy."
"Okay mom. See you later."
"Bye, love ya. Kiss. Kiss."
"Love ya, too. Kiss. Kiss."
"That you mom?" asked Louis.
"Yeah. She and Luke, and Grandma and Grandpa are on their way. They'll be here in time for the ceremony."
"What about your dad?" Madeline questioned.
"He is bringing some of his 'people' because he has some business in Paris to attend to, so they are leaving right after the ceremony."
"Ooo, that sucks," said Paris.
"You're telling me." I said back, irritated, "I mean seriously, can't he take a break for his only child's graduation."
"I feel your pain," said Paris, sadly.
"Oh, Paris. I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like that."
"I know, I just wish they would care about me for once."
"Paris, think about it this way," said Madeline, "if they don't want to be there than you don't want them there. Besides parents just get in the way of having fun."
"Except for Lorelai," commented Louise.
"Yeah, except for Lorelai, she's cool," agreed both Madeline and Louis.
"So is your dad," added Madeline.
"Mmhmm," said Louise, nodding.
"Maddi, Lou, you just think my dad is hot," I pointed out, "which is wrong on so many different levels."
"Well, guys we better get ready," said Paris, having recovered from the earlier conversation, "We only have three and a half hours before the ceremony starts."
"That's not enough time," shrieked both Maddi and Lou, both running for the bathroom. Lou shrieked out "No fair" when Maddi elbowed her and got into the bathroom first. Paris and I were sitting on my bed giggling at the site before us.
"Wow. Think about what would have happened if their parents were here," I said, still giggling.
We both looked at each other and started to laugh even harder. Lou turned around and said, "Fine, Paris, I'll just have to use yours" and she took of for Paris' room. With Paris at her heels screaming "Oh, no you don't!! Get back here Barbie!!"
Wow, I have weird roommates, I thought to myself.

"Rory Gilmore," said Headmaster Charleston.
I walked across the stage, got my 'diploma', and shook his hand. I looked out into the parents and friends of the people graduating and I immediately saw my mom, she was dressed in a bright red dress that stuck out like a sore thumb. Next to her was Luke, and next to him was Jess. I looked at mom and made the face we had decided to do when I first started Chilton. My mom made the face back at me and my Grandma elbowed her and rolled her eyes. On the other side of my mom, were my Grandma and Grandpa. I craned my neck to try and find my dad, but I couldn't find him any where, I looked at my mom, wondering if maybe she knew where he was, but she just shrugged her shoulders and looked apologetic. I kept repeating over and over in my head what Maddie had said, "If he doesn't want to be here, that you don't want him here." Yeah, I thought, I don't need him. It's always the same thing, he comes back, begs mom to take him back, she does, he promises me that this one will last, they get into one little fight (usually about Luke,) he leaves and mom is left crying and he's not there any more. So I'm left to pick up the pieces of mom and myself.
"…and now Chilton Boarding School's graduating class of 2004."
Everyone was standing up and clapping, all of the students threw their hats up in the air. Now we were all talking when all of a sudden I was practically knock down as someone rammed into me.
"Congrats!!" screamed my mother in my ear.
"Ow!! Mom!! I need that ear, and both of them as a matter of fact!!" I complained.
"Sorry! I'm just so excited!! My baby is all grown up and graduated high school" Lorelai said, faking crying at the end.
"Lorelai, stop it! You embarrassing yourself, Rory and us!" said the proper voice of Grandma.
"Hey, Grandma, Grandpa. I'm so happy to see you guys" I said trying to smooth things over.
Mom shot me a thankful look, and I looked around again to try and find dad, but he still wasn't there. Sighing, I turned back to the conversation that the four grownups were having.
"Congratulations," a voice said in my ear.
I jumped, then turned around and I jumped in to his arm.
"Jess!!" I squealed, "I haven't seen you in forever."
Before he could answer somebody rapped on my shoulder.
"Excuse me, miss, but do you know where I could find a Miss Rory Gilmore," said a voice in my ear.
"Yes, I'm Miss- Dad!!" I replied turning around and jumping into his arms as soon as I figured out who it was.
"Hey kiddo!" he said, "Great to see you!"
Eying Jess, he asked, "And who is this young man? Your boyfriend, perhaps??"
Jess and I took one look at each other and burst out laughing. The other grownups heard us looked over and wondered what was so funny and why we were laughing so hard, because I was literally on the floor laughing and Jess was bent over with his hands on his knees.
"Did someone think Jess was your boyfriend again?" Lou asked, as she Maddie and Paris made their way over to us.
"Yeah," I said wiping the tears from my eyes, "Dad this is Jess, my best friend. Jess, this is my dad, Christopher."
As they shook hand I noticed four boys standing behind him. I wondered if they were his business associates but, then four older men walked over from talking with Headmaster Charleston, they were obviously the fathers of the four boys. They all looked like they were bored.
After grownups has exchanged 'hello' and 'how are you' dad turned around and said, "I would like you to meet my business partners and their sons; Mitchum and Logan Huntzburger, Josiah and Tristan DuGrey, Maxwell and Finn Morgan, and Joseph and Colin McCrea. Guys this is my daughter Rory."
A/N: Okay guys there you go. The first chapter and I want reviews. I also have no idea who should get together with Rory. I am between Finn and Tristan. Please not too much drama. I am a very simple kind of girl, I like mini problems. Not big breakup makeup problems.
