Disclaimer: I do not own these characters.

A/N: This is my first fanfic. It starts after "A Family Matter". It's general at first because I didn't want to write out of character, but it soon turns to Lit and JJ. :) I will be adding more chapters soon.

R&R, please!

Lorelai and Rory Gilmore sat quietly on the couch both wondering who would speak first. They had just seen Jess for the first time in a year, sleeping in a car outside of Lukes. They were both unsure of why he was there and especially why he was sleeping in his car.

"Do you think he is staying?" Rory spoke up.

"I don't know." Lorelai replied.

"Well, I don't know either..why do you think I asked you? Gosh, I am so mad!
Why would he come back? Why would he do that?"

"I don't know". Lorelai said, staring at the wall.

"Mom, okay, not helping here..and what the hell are you staring at?!"

"Alright, geez, take a chill pill..the wall didn't do anything."

"Sorry, im just a little confused."

"Its not that confusing..I just told you what I was staring at."

"MOM!"

"Okay, honey calm down I was just trying to lighten the mood." she said with a slight smile.

"I know, im sorry...it's just the worst time for jess to come back, I mean I was getting to the point where I was going to completely forget about him and me and Dean were finally starting to become friends again..and what if Dean sees Jess? They may get into a fight and Dean might get the wrong impression and think he's here with me...and what if I run into him? What do I do then?"

"....I don't know honey..all I know is you're worrying too much."

"No Im not mom, you know Im going to run in to him somewhere its STARS HOLLOW remember?!"

"No you won't...just try to avoid places he might go..plus you'll be back at Yale on Monday anyway.."

"How am I supposed to "avoid" the places he'll go? This town is a friggin' peanut and he's the shell! He goes everywhere I go, Luke's, the square, the bookstore, Fran's..Doose's!"

"Okay..first, that whole peanut and shell thing...bad analogy..and second,
calm down and I'll order some pizza."

"We just ate."

"No..you just ate, I pretended to eat while I was coming up with different scenarios on how to be reborn to a new family." Lorelai said with a smile.

"..so whats the prognosis?" Rory said with a smirk.

"Adoption....yeah, it was either that or turning back time and I figured that be a little more difficult..plus if I get Joe's family to adopt me then we'll get a lifetime supply of free pizza and Im gonna make him give me half of his profits...and of course I'll be the favorite in the family so our mother will make him agree.....so what do you think?"

"I think you're weird....and I wouldn't want to be your sister.."

"Hm..you may think im weird, but some how im the one with all of Joe's money..." Lorelai said and then picked up the phone to order the pizza.
