CHAPTER ONE: HELLO PHILADELPHIA
Stop number 6 of the Barack Obama presidential campaign. The bus stops, and Rory Gilmore opens her eyes upon feeling the bus stop motion. Waking up in Philadelphia. She had been nervous for most of her trip so far, her first real job as a journalist, but this stop filled her with themost anixety. Rory stepped off the bus and headed towards the hotel where she and the rest of the other reporters were staying during their time in Philadelphia. Jennifer, another journalist who was working on the campaign with Rory and whom she had developed a quick friendship with, turned towards Rory noting the look on her face.
"Woah. Gilmore you look like you've seen a ghost. Now I've heard rumblings that this town is haunted but I've always still been a little skeptic of the unknown." Jennifer said, in a ramble which resembled the work of a Gilmore, "You okay?"
Rory shook her head trying to regain consicious thought, "Um yea. I'm totally fine." she lied and it was evident to all around her, Rory Gilmore never had been good at the lieing thing, her eyes always gave her away.
Jennifer opened the door as they reached the room they would be staying in and both girls drops their bags on a bed, as to claim it for their own. Jennifer turned towards Rory placing her hands on her hips and stared her down, "Youre lieing to me Gilmore, I don't appreciate that."
Rory rolled her eyes with a bit of a laugh, "It's fine. Don't worry mother. I'm just a little nervous is all."
"You weren't even nervous on your first day of the campaign. You were that freak sitting at the front of the bus so excited to get started. You spent hours going over your notes and articles until they were perfect. You weren't afraid to talk to anyone get any dirt. And now you're starting to feel nervous? Why do I not buy it?"
Rory shrugged her shoulders, "I'm not sure why don't buy it, but it's the truth." she said reaching for her bag again. "Actually there was a pool here, yes? Think I'm just gonna relax by the pool tonight I'm gonna go change."
"But Gilmore, we have a ritual, first night in every new town we hit a bar and scope out the hotties. The joy of being single on the road. Are you really going to break the tradition already?" Jennifer asked Rory with disappointment and worry in her voice.
Rory gave her new friend a small smile, "Sorry, just this once I promise." And with that she took her bag and headed out the door. Unable to be around anyone right now, she just needed time to herself to think. Think about what? She wasn't quite sure, there was just something about being in the same town as Jess Mariano again that made her nervous, and excited at the same time...and she didn't know what to think about that.
