Her life was flashing before her eyes. Ending, no that wasn't right. Disintegrating. Slowly and painfully disintegrating. Emily was still talking animatedly but only one word stuck in her head.

Marriage.

Rory.

They didn't even seem like they belonged in the same sentence together. Like every girl, she already had a picture in her head of how she wanted this to happen. They were supposed to have things common and be able to talk about anything and everything and nothing in particular. They were supposed to like the same movies, the same books, music, not…this. She wasn't supposed to have an arranged marriage. Not at twenty-five. Maybe if she was fifty and had no prospects, but she…she didn't even know his name! Emily didn't want to "ruin the surprise". Ha! She couldn't be more surprised if she wanted to. She was supposed to date, to be wooed and swept off her feet. He was suppose to send her flowers and candy and open doors for her and—

"Rory, are you even listening to me?" Emily sighs, frustrated.

"Huh?"

"You'll be having a ball in your honor." Lorelai announces in an overly polite tone.

Rory glares at her. "How can you sit there and let this happen? Say something!" Lorelai sighs defeated.

"Her saying something is exactly what got you in this 'mess' as you so politely put it." Emily says smugly.

"What? How?"

"Lorelai was to have an arranged marriage." Rory looks stunned. "Because she put up such a fuss she said that we could marry you—her first child."

"So, you just fed me to the wolves?" She turns to Lor.

Lorelai looks apologetically at her. "I didn't know they'd take me seriously!" She throws her hands up in defense.

"You're rarely serious Lorelai." Emily starts. "That's why the few times you are, I take you very seriously. That's why I still have a copy of it."

"You signed over my life?" Rory exclaims.

"I must've been really upset." She reasons. Rory groans and gets up.

"He's a very agreeably fellow." Richard starts. "Intelligent, about to take over his father's company."

"Richard, you'll give everything away!" Emily scolds.

"She doesn't know who I'm talking about from the two things I said, Emily." Richard rolls his eyes.

Lorelai catches Rory's eye and smiles apologetically. "If you're lucky maybe he'll be hot!"

Rory glares again before walking off. "What?" Lor calls after her. "I can't afford to have ugly grandchildren!"
