Chapter 2 "The Party"
Rory was adjusting to her new job pretty well. She had this one co-worker, Natalie, who has become a good friend. It was Natalie, who had been at the paper along time, who invited her to the yearly company Halloween party. This year it was going to be a masquerade party. Rory has just gotten back for a long work day, and on her way home she picked up some take-out. Since she couldn't make it home this weekend, she called her mom.
"Hey" said Rory
"Hey Kiddo" Lorelai said "How have you been?"
"Fine and you?" said Rory
"I'm about as fine as you can be six months pregnant with twins. "said Lorelai " I can hear Goodyear calling"
"Let me know when they arrive so that I can get the strings hooked up" joked Rory
"Don't tease the mommy" Lorelai said
"Sorry, I'll try to be more sensitive" Rory said
"Thanks" said Lorelai "Any future plans?"

"That you will be going with friends" said Lorelai "I can't believe it has been almost three years, and you haven't been on any dates or have been seeing anybody"
"Well, I have been concentrating heavily on my career" said Rory
"Yeah, I know, but if you happen to meet a nice guy, don't be afraid to say yes if he asks you out. I think you have your career in a good place, and you could use a good man" said Lorelai
"If I do come across a good man, I will try and take your advice" said Rory
"That's all I ask" says Lorelai as they hung up the phone.

Rory was at the party and she was having a pretty good time. Her friend, Natalie has helped her find a mask that she was extremely happy with. She was dancing and enjoying herself, but she still felt a little weird, as she was more of a slow dancer type. She went to sit down, and the place she chose has a good view of the entire dance floor. She had been looking around the dance floor, when she spotted a familiar face…
