Hey guys. This is my first fanfiction, so my ability to write will be put to the test soon enough. I hope you enjoy this fanfic and R&R. -


Lorelei Gilmore lay awake in her bed forming a plan, a plan that she had been thinking about for a long time. She turned her head slightly to look at the crib at the other end of the room and the sleeping maid next to it. She wondered whether she could pull it off or not. She then made a life-changing decision and went for it. She gently crept out of bed and made her way to her closet. She picked out a few simple outfits and put them in her backpack. Lorelei picked up her baby Rory and tip-toed out her room for the last time for many years to come.

They only stopped for a little bit of food, a baby bottle, a jacket, and some money. Then she wrote a note and left it on the kitchen table before walking out of the mansion without looking back.

They made it to the bus stop without any problems, and only had to wait about a half hour before taking a one way bus out of Hartford. The bus was empty except for an old woman in the back and the sleepy bus driver. Lorelei didn't know where she was going, but she knew she was free .That was her last thought before she fell asleep.

Lorelei awoke with a start and realized the bus had stopped. She looked out the window groggily and saw a sign above a gate that said the Independence Inn. She stood up stiffly and walked out without thinking very much. Rory gurgled in her sleep and her mother smiled and placed her hand on her baby's head and realized that Rory's hair was starting to grow.

A couple of minutes later she walked up the white steps of the Inn and nearly fainted in nervousness. But she collected herself and strode up to the front desk where a woman was writing something down while talking to a man with a toolbox. She finished up and Lorelei faced and looked her directly in the eye as she said, "I need a job, any job."


R&R and I'll try to update soon.
