A.N.: Hey guys sorry it's been a while since an update, but hey, life is hectic. Especially since it's my birthday on Sunday!!! Anyway, here's chapter four. It's title The Next Morning. Very self explanatory. Sorry the chapters so short, but whatever, at least it's a chapter.


Chapter 4: The Next Morning

It had been after three in the morning when everyone had finally gotten to sleep, except Lorelai, who had gone up to bed at twelve thirty, leaving the teens alone.

Flashback:

"Your mom seems really cool, but I'm sure you already knew that," Steph told Rory.

"Yea, I know. She trusts me too, which is always nice," Rory replied, focusing on the movie, which was proving difficult with Logan in her ear and Finn's head on her shoulder.

"She should adopt us!" Finn suggested.

"Yea, I'm sure that would work out well," Colin responded sarcastically.

"It could mate, those Gilmore girls' already love us, don't you love?" Finn declared.

"That's right Finny!" Rory answered.

END FLASHBACK

Wakey, wakey! It's a new day! And I made coffee!" Lorelai announced at eleven am.

"Bless you mom," Rory groaned.

"No prob, now get these lazy bums up! We're going to Luke's!"

Hearing something about going to Luke's, Rory sprang into action and got everyone up and dressed within twenty minutes.

"Honey, we're home!" Lorelai announced as the group walked into the Diner.

"Ugh. Lorelai, what have I told you? Other people like to eat here, and they like to do it in peace!" Luke scolded. "Hey Ror, do you want your usual chocolate chip pancakes and pot of coffee?"

"Hi Luke, yep, that's exactly what I want!" Rory smiled at her main coffee supplier. "What do you guys want?" She asked, turning to her friends.

"I want eggs, tea, and toast!" Finn declared.

"I'll have toast and coffee please," Steph answered.

"Same as Steph thanks," Colin said.

"Blueberry pancakes and coffee please," Logan told Luke.

"Lorelai, I know that you want the same as Rory, don't talk," Luke commanded, causing Lorelai to pout.

"Let's just get a seat over here," Rory suggested before leading the group to the three tables pushed together.

"So what happened after I went to bed?" Lorelai asked. "Did anyone have hot, passionate sex?"

Before Rory could answer her mother, Logan jumped in, "Oh yea, tons."

"Between who?" Lorelai played along.

"Him and Rory," Finn jumped in.

"Finn! Why I oughta…" Rory muttered.

"What Ace, are you embarrassed to admit that you want me?" Logan smirked.

"Oh yea, that's it; I'm completely embarrassed and now you now that I want you," Rory retorted sarcastically.

"At least it's out in the open now."

Rory just scoffed.

"I hate to break up the love fest," Lorelai interrupted, "But Rory, isn't that Lane? Why don't you invite her to join us?"

"Ok!" Rory jumped up and ran out the door to get her other best friend.

She returned five minutes later, however, without Lane. "Her mom wanted her," Rory explained.

"Dirty!" Lorelai exclaimed making everyone laugh, and Luke to roll his eyes.

The large group talked for another couple of minutes until Luke came back with their orders.

"You guys are going to die from all of the coffee you consume." There was Luke, always watching out for "his girls."

"So boy toys, which one of you is going to stake a claim on Rory?" Lorelai joked. "I mean, I know Colin likes Steph so he's out, so is it blondie or the exotic one?"

"Hasn't been decided yet," Rory answered for the other two.

"Yea, we haven't had our rock-paper-scissors contest yet," Finn agreed.

"I've got it!" Lorelai shouted. "How about you have the contest now?"

The boys just shrugged and got ready to play.

"Rock-Paper-Scissors shoot!"

Finn pulled out a fist for rock, and Logan held his hand flat.

"I win!" the blond boy yelled. "Looks like you're stuck with me Ace."

"We'll see what can be done about that," Rory replied before winking at him.

"I'm sure we will." Logan winked back.
