Chapter Two- New Start

"Luke I need coffee!" cried Lorelai.

"You just had a cup like two seconds ago."

"I know but I need another." Lorelai said putting on her brightest smile. Luke just rolled his eyes and poured another cup into the sky blue mug she was waving in the air. Moments later the phone rang.

"Geez why do people always call when I'm getting busy?" Luke grumbled as he made his way over to the phone and picked it up.

"Luke its Liz." The women on the other end said. Luke's eyes widened.

"Liz, uh hey what's up?" he asked.

"It's Jess…he's gone." She cried.

"Wait a minute, what?"

"He's gone!"

"Where? Why?" Luke asked.

"I don't know!" Liz said frantically.

"What happened?" Luke asked.

"We got in this fight, he got mad, he walked out, and I have no idea who else to call, or where he is, Luke help me!" Liz said going into hysterics.

"What did you get into a fight about?" Luke asked.

"I…nothing Luke, just help me-"

"No don't pull that oh it's nothing Luke crap on me now Liz what in the heck did you guys fight about!" Luke yelled, and causing some customers to turn their heads and stare.

"Fine, if you really want to know, we had a fight about me not being smart, and….smoking pot, making wrong decisions with boyfriends, Luke…please help me fix this, help me find him, and bring him home to me," Liz pleaded.

"Smoking pot…boyfriends…geez Liz what are you thinking!" Luke snapped.

"I don't know Luke I don't know all I know is you have to-"

"Help you, I know, well the only thing I will be doing is helping you get Jess out of your hair." Luke replied.

"No Luke you can't take him away from me, please he's my son," Liz cried.

"He's my nephew, I can and I will it's for Jess's own good," Luke said. "Liz I've got to go ok I'm going to say something I will regret later if I continue this conversation." Then he hung up.

"Luke what was that all about?" Lorelai asked taking a sip of her coffee.

"My uh…sister called, she's in some trouble, and my nephew Jess is going to be living with me for awhile, well when I find him that is or until he finds me." Luke said as he wiped down the counter.

"Oh, well if you need anything just give me a call or whatever." Lorelai said.

"Yeah, thanks." Luke replied giving Lorelai a small smile.

The sunlight shown brightly through the window and the sound of the drill accompanied the singing birds outside the Kim's house. Rory Gilmore was sleeping soundly next to Lane when the drill sounded again. Rory cracked an eye open and moaned.

"Lane what is that?" she mumbled into her pillow.

"Huh? What?" Lane grumbled as she rolled over.

"That sound, what is that?" Rory groaned as she tried to sit up. Neither one even needed to guess who it was making that atrocious noise.

"Kirk." They said in unison exchanging glances.

"What time is it?" Rory asked her best friend. Lane smoothed back her jet black hair and rolled over to see that the clock read 9:29am.

"9:29." Lane replied.

"I should get going I guess." Rory said as she pulled her nut brown hair into a pony tail and started to get changed into some blue jeans and a blue zip up sweatshirt.

"Oh ok, um Rory listen I'm really sorry about-" Lane started.

"I know me too." Rory said quietly as she finished dressing and grabbed her purse. "I'll uh see ya later Lane, and thanks for letting me stay the night." Rory said and was about to go out the door.

"Rory if you ever need to talk about what happened; you know you can call me." Lane said giving Rory a smile. Rory just nodded and shut the door quietly.

The bell rang as Rory entered Luke's diner. Lorelai turned around and smiled as she saw Rory come and sit by her.

"And here comes mini me!" Lorelai cheered.

"Hey mom, Luke can I have some coffee please?" Rory asked.

"Your little mini me is more polite than you are." Luke mumbled grabbing a cup and the coffee pot off the burner.

"What can I say." Lorelai said smirking. Then the bell to the diner door rang again, and Luke looked up to who it was and locked eyes with a pair of brown ones.
