Author's note: Hello all! Welcome to my story. This is the first one that I've written for Gilmore Girls. I hope that it's alright. Don't forget to read and leave some reviews. I want to hear what y'all think.
I don't own Gilmore Girls or any of the characters. I wish I did, but I don't.
It was a typical day sunny spring day in Philadelphia. A petite brunette female with a purple knit hat was walking to the park to meet her friend. The girl was wearing a black skirt, a cute sweater and her favorite pair of converse sneakers. It wasn't long before she was in the park, walking past people doing various things. One of the people Zoey noticed was a guy who was sitting on a bench, reading a book that Zoey couldn't see the title. Whether or not it was a book that she'd heard of, Zoey was somewhat impressed. Not too many guys seriously read anymore, it was refreshing. And to top it off, he was cute.
That was when she spotted her friend, sitting on a half wall with his guitar. Zoey smiled and quickened her pace. "Hey Stefan. Sorry I'm late. I'm still getting used to being here and I was looking at apartments." She explained as she leaned against the half wall, straightening her outfit and getting comfortable. "Not a problem at all, Zo. This city takes a little time to get used to." Stefan smiled and adjusted his acoustic guitar. "What would you like to start with?"
Zoey thought for a moment. "How about that cover that we've been working on? 'Wake Me Up' Avicii." She offered. Stefan nodded and agreed. He soon started to play the opening chords to the song.
Feeling my way through the darkness
Guided by a beating heart
I can't tell where the journey will end
But I know where to start
Couples that were close by started to turn around and pay attention.
They tell me I'm too young to understand
They say I'm caught up in a dream
Well life will pass me by if I don't open up my eyes
Well that's fine by me
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself, and I
Didn't know I was lost
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself, and I
Didn't know I was lost
More people were gathering around them, bobbing their heads to the beat.
I tried carrying the weight of the world
But I only have two hands
Hope I get the chance to travel the world
But I don't have any plans
Wish that I could stay forever this young
Not afraid to close my eyes
Life's a game made for everyone
And love is a prize
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself, and I
Didn't know I was lost
So wake me up when it's all over
When I'm wiser and I'm older
All this time I was finding myself, and I
I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
I didn't know I was lost
So wake me up
Once the song was over, the people who had gathered started to clap. A couple of the people had song suggestions. Stefan and Zoe smiled at eachother and fulfilled a couple of the requests before continuing on with their set. Their set varied most of the time. It was usually whatever the two of them were in the mood for or what they had recently worked out. The two were nearing the end of their set a while later when Zoey told the crowd that they would doing another acoustic cover. It turned out to be "Broken" by Seether.
The handsome stranger who had been reading slowly rose from the bench before folding the book and putting it in his back pocket. As he walked away, Zoey casually watched him. Stefan leaned in before starting the song, "See something you like?" He paused before adding, "Don't forget about your boyfriend back in Michigan.." Zoey could only bring herself to nod as the time quickly approached for her to sing her part.
The stranger passed behind Zoey when she started to sing. He paused for a brief moment to listen. He made a face that seemed to look like he was at least a little impressed before walking off. Little did he know, he would be seeing the girl again soon.
Two weeks later
Zoey hoofed it up a couple of flights of stairs before finding the hallway that she needed. She slowly walked past each door, looking at them. Once she found the right door, she stopped and knocked hard to compensate for the music she could hear through the walls. A minute or two passed before the music was turned down and the door opened. It revealed the mysterious stranger that Zoey saw in the park when she and Stefan were performing.
The guy raised an eyebrow as he looked her up and down. "Um. Hi. I'm Zoey, and I'm responding to your roommate ad. The spot is still open, right?" She tried to confirm. The guy just looked at her for a moment before speaking. "Oh, yeah. The spot is still open. Come on in. I'm Jess by the way. Jess Mariano." Zoey smiled and walked past him into the apartment. 'Jess. it suits him.' She thought before the door closed.
So, that was the first chapter. I hope that you all enjoyed it. It would be lovely to get some reviews to see what you guys think. You guys are awesome!
