Disclaimer: I don't own the Gilmore Girls, if I did Rory would have said yes to Logan and Luke would not have been a pain in the 6th season. But I think I can place claim on Ella and her friends when they come up.

Things you need to know: after the I love you incident between Rory and Dean they didn't get back together. She did go out with Jess during her senior year.

Chapter 1: Coffee at Three in the Morning

Rory wakes with a start, she had that dream again. It was so real and so vivid. The dream was of a flashback that changed her life. That night before the morning that broke her heart.

She never meant to fall in love with him; it had only been one night. But if she was honest with herself she would admit that she always had feelings for him, deep down she did love him before, but she would never be honest with herself.

Rory gets out of bed and slowly walks out of her room and down the hall to the kitchen to make coffee, knowing that she would not be able to fall back to sleep. As she moves to the living room with her coffee she sees her blue eyed, blond hair angel sitting awake on the couch.

Her daughter, Lorelai Elizabeth Gilmore IV, or more fondly Ella, was 14 going on 25 and heading to Chilton following in both her mother's and father's footsteps. She was a product of the night that still haunts Rory in her dreams.

"Hey, little girl, what are you doing up?" Rory asked her daughter.

"What do you mean I am always up… and I'm reading," Ella said in an obvious tone while holding up the book she was reading, Catch-22. Ever since Ella was about 12 she had insomniac tendencies and as she got older the hours at night that se didn't sleep had becoming slowly longer.

"I can see that and I know, but what are you doing out here 3:00 in the morning?" Her mother questioned sitting down next to Ella, as she puts her head on her mother's shoulder. Whenever Ella couldn't sleep she would either stay in her room or climb into her mother's bed knowing that she was most likely awake.

"Oh you know had a nightmare about great-grandma sending me to a finishing school, which grandma said is a fate worst than death." Ella joked sarcastically finishing off in a whisper. In return she got a pointed look form her mother telling her she didn't believe Ella. "Ok, I was just thinking about the party great-grandma made us attend and the father-daughter dance tonight and now that I start to think about and I didn't want you to worry or know." Ella started to ramble

Rory wrapped her around her daughter, she knew how hard it was for Ella, especially looking and acting so much like him.

"Can you tell me about him please mommy," Ella asked quietly

Rory sighed, "Okay," she whispered.

Tell me what you think and review!

Thanks, Nikki
