Chapter 1

Lorelai was preparing a ton of junk food, anxiously awaiting the arrival of her one and only daughter, Rory. They were having an impromptu movie night and Lorelai was excited. The past week was midterms for Rory, so Lorelai hadn't seen or talked to her in a while.

'Wow, a random movie night. Haven't had one of those in a while, let alone a movie night on Friday! Thank goodness Emily and Richard had a ball or something to go to tonight,' Lorelai thought as she tried to decide what movies they would watch. While she was doing so, Rory was unlocking the door of the house quietly, wanting to surprise her mom.

"Hi Mom!" Rory yelled as she jumped on her mother's back.

Lorelai put her hand over her heart and glared at Rory, saying, "Rory! You could have given me a heart attack! Wait, I think you did. Oh no, I'm dying and it's all because of you! Plus you made me drop Johnny Depp."

There was a moment of silence before the mother-daughter pair broke out into laughter. Rory picked up the dropped Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest DVD while still laughing hard. They finally calmed down and Rory said, "Mom, I don't think we should watch POTC tonight. I'm in more of a chick flick, romance kind of mood. Didn't I tell you why I wanted a movie night so badly?"

Lorelai looked thoughtful for a moment than replied with a "Ah hah! I remember. You finally realized that you're not over Logan. It only took you two years."

"What do you mean finally realized?" a flabbergasted Rory replied.

Lorelai just looked at her with that 'duh' look and Rory sighed, saying, "You are so right."

Lorelai glanced at Rory with a somewhat sad look in her face. Her daughter was in love and she didn't even know it. So Lorelai decided to help her out in whatever way she could and support Rory's decisions as long as they weren't going to screw up her life.

As Lorelai was thinking all these deep things, Rory chose the movies for the night. On the itinerary was "A Walk to Remember", "Romeo and Juliet", "John Tucker Must Die", and the totally random movie "Accepted." Lorelai approved and they both watched movies all night, talked, and filled themselves with junk food and sweets of all sorts.

The next morning, Rory woke up to the sun shining in her face and the smell of freshly brewed coffee. Sleepily, she got up and felt her way to the kitchen. She arrived with her eyes half-closed and she downed a whole cup of coffee in just one gulp. She closed her eyes and after a few minutes and three coffee refills later, she was wide-awake.

"So, my dear daughter, now that you are fully energized, just like me, might I add, why don't you tell me about that song you promised you'd tell me about last night?" said a very energetic Lorelai.

Rory had a blank look on her face and after a couple of seconds she replies, "Oh! There's this song I heard, "All Hail the Heartbreaker", it reminds me of Logan so much! It's a great song, though. Here, I have it on my iPod. Let me play it on the Bose speaker."

The song blared out through the speakers. The two were listening to it so intently that it was almost funny. When the 5-minute song ended, Lorelai said, "Wow, it does remind me of Logan. I just have no clue what specifically does. That's what you said last night, right? Whose the artist again?"

"A1 Invasion"

"Okay"

They stopped talking about the song and started planning their day. They first decided to eat breakfast at Luke's Diner. Then they would head over to Yale to get Rory's stuff for Christmas break. After they would go on a shopping trip to get at least a few Christmas gifts.

----

Over the next few days, the two girls, along with Lane, just hung out and relaxed. They also listened to more A1 Invasion songs, which was a surprising change from their usual taste in music. One day, only a couple of days before Christmas, Lorelai and Rory were sorting through some of their old things when Lane burst into the house screaming and jumping.

"Ah! What's wrong?" said Rory, standing up startled.

"Guess what!" said Lane happily.

"Dave's back?" tried Lorelai.

"No! But I wish he was back. Anyway, A1 Invasion is coming to Hartford and I got three front row tickets! Concert's on the 23rd!"

The three of them got all excited like little schoolgirls. It was a hilarious site, especially since the three girls, well women, were people of high standards. Lorelai ran the prominent Dragonfly Inn, Rory was a top student at the prestigious Yale University, and Lane was part of the famous band, Hep Alien, and here they were acting like they were teenagers screaming for Jesse McCartney.

"Oh my word, guys, were acting like immature 13-year old who just got their first kiss," said Lorelai, abruptly stopping their little victory dance.

"You're right. We are respectable adults. We shouldn't be doing this," Rory tried to say with a straight face, but failed miserably.

They all gave up on trying to be mature and started jumping around again. They talked about what they were going to wear and all that fun stuff for the rest of the afternoon. Yes, they were that excited.

----

The days before the concert passed by quickly. They were filled with last minute Christmas shopping, gift wrapping, and that holiday rush everyone seems to feel during the Christmas season, whether we like it or not.

And, finally, the day of the concert came.

It was Saturday afternoon at the Gilmore house. They were in a rush, getting ready for the concert that would take place that night. But, before the concert, they had to drop by Richard's company, since according to Emily "their presence was absolutely required at the company Christmas party." Their plan was to drag Lane along, eat as fast as they could, and have Lorelai pretend to be sick, her specialty.

Thirty minutes later, they were ready. They picked up Lane and headed to Hartford. "I can't wait until we get there!" yelled Rory.

"I know!" replied Lorelai happily.

Lane looked at the two strangely, wondering why in the world they would be happy about seeing Richard and Emily. She gave up on wondering and just asked them, "Why are you guys so excited about seeing Richard and Emily?"

"Apple puffs!" they both said, well, more like screamed, simultaneously.

Lane just nodded her head in understanding, laughing at her friends' crazy antics.

The trio arrived at Richard's office 45 minutes later. They got down and rushed in, trying not to trip since they were wearing high heels and formal dresses. And, as soon as they entered, Emily's radar went up and she started towards them.

"Oh no," sighed all three of them.

"Girls! I'm so glad you made it on time!" said Emily cheerfully.

"It's not like we had a choice since you threatened to bring us to ten other Christmas parties if we were late," muttered Lorelai under her breath.

"What was that Lorelai?" was Emily's strained reply.

Lorelai sighed yet again and just said, "Nothing, mom."

Emily then dragged the three girls off, wanting to introduce them to their huge amount of so-called friends.

The hour went by slowly, and twenty apple puffs later, Lorelai was faking a bad migraine. Richard, to Emily's dismay, quickly allowed them to leave. He even offered them the key to their house, in case Lorelai couldn't make it to Stars Hollow. They declined, and by 7:00 they were off to the Alan Parker Stadium for the 7:30 concert.

----

"Hey, you guys ready for this?" said the drummer of A1 Invasion as the band was preparing in their dressing room for the concert.

"Absolutely! It's our last concert of the year, and it's in our hometown! It's going to be our best," replied their crazy bassist.

The rest of the band just agreed happily while they all got into their little "pre-show rituals." They were all pumped up and ready to rock.

----

Lane, Lorelai, and Rory arrived at the stadium five minutes later, after they had changed at the nearest gas station. The girls were very excited since they had grown to love the band so much in a matter of days. They didn't know how the band members looked like, so they were trying to figure it out.

"I bet the singer is hott. He sounds hott," said Lorelai.

The other two agreed and Rory also said that she thought the bassist would be cute because, well, just because. Lane said the same about the drummer.

The girls arrived at the entrance and gave their tickets to the big bouncer looking guy. Another worker escorted them to their front row seats. They excitedly waited for the band to come on, ready to experience one of the best concerts of their lives, since A1 Invasion was known for awesome concerts.

And minutes later, the band walked onto the stage to the sound of screaming fans and three audible gasps…
