Hey…thanks for reading my story….reviews appreciated…would like some constructive criticism

I was bored out of my mind. Everything was so wrong about my life right now, and I felt that I really needed Jess to put it into place. Everyone around here was so depressed, and it was starting to get really annoying. Rory had been spending every night possible at Logan's place, and Mom was trying to make up for her lost quality time with Luke. However, I could tell the pain that she was in when she got up for work in the morning and realized that there was none. There was so much stuff going on in my life then that I really needed some time to relax and think.

I remembered my first impression of Mom. She was this beautiful, funny, smart woman that I immediately wanted to be around. The one reason that I let down my guard with her was that she had had a baby at 16, like my mother, but she kept Rory and raised her. Melissa, my so called birth mother, could care less about me. She was a high school dropout before she had me, but she already had a new boyfriend, and keeping me would make him jealous or something. Way to make me feel wanted. In contrast, Lorelai could've gone to any college she wanted to, and had a very successful life. Instead, she kept Rory, and it paid off, because she now lives in this fairy-tale like town. I feel so loved because she was willing to take me when no one else was, and if I was actually her birth child, she would've kept me.

When I first saw Rory, she was this smart, older girl who actually liked me. Yes, she had an annoying boyfriend, Dean (shudders), but I soon steered her in the right path when everyone's favorite bad boy came to town. Which reminded me, why isn't he here yet?

Now, everything's changed. Mom is severely depressed, and Rory has just thrown her life away to be with Logan. I know, if she marries him, all she has to do is attend DAR meetings. But I will not let that happen. Even though Rory's been a selfish person lately, I'm going to make sure Jess sweeps her off her feet, and that she remembers what a real man looks like.

I checked my email again, and found a surprise message from Melissa. Oh, great. What does she want now? Emailing me just reminds me that Lorelai is not my real mom, no matter how much I want her to be.

Allegra,

Darling! I have amazing news! Your father has come back to town, and we spent a lot of time together. He wants to meet you, and is really sorry that he never did. I, however, am having a bit of a problem. See, when I saw your father I got a little excited, and might have accidentally started something romantic up again. The problem is, this fabulously rich man is hopelessly head-over-heels for me, and just think how much Chanel he could buy me!! So, he doesn't know about your father. Here's your father's number (453-232-4548). Call him!! Unfortunately, I know you live in a dump, and your father has no money. Maybe when things b/w me and Brett(rich guy) work out, I'll send you a check.

Ciao, bella

Mom

Melissa,

Just so you know, I already have a father. And it's definitely not the high school jock who you were stupid enough to sleep with not just once, but twice now. And tell Brett to shove his money where the sun don't shine. Please stop contacting me. All the Chanel in the world couldn't possibly stop me from living with my REAL mom.

Allegra (sorry if the truth hurts, but I'm not a phony)

You might think that I'm cold and heartless or something. Well, try having a mother who never cared about you, and only had you because she found out she was pregnant too late to have an abortion. Yes, the prospect of meeting my father is intriguing. But too much is a mess now in my life. I think that Lorelai would be so insulted if I tried to find him. Also, from what it sounds like, he can't be that smart. Who on earth would sleep with my mother? Ew.

I quickly forgot about my thoughts when the doorbell rang. Too late I realized that Rory was home, in her room, and closer to the door. Crap. She wasn't supposed to see him first. I ran downstairs, and it was him. He still was the same old Jess. Rory was sort of frozen at the door. I ran downstairs and jumped into his arms.

"Jess, I missed you so much!" I almost started crying, because if anyone could fix my life, it was my big brother.

"I know, babe, it's so awesome to see you. Let's get out of here."

Rory glared at us, "Oh, no. Don't tell me you're dating. That would be the icing on the cake."

I rolled my eyes, "Please. You know Jess can only date one Gilmore, and you know who that is. I've missed Jess. He's my big brother. Actually, Jess, I'd love to spend some time with you, but I think I'll let you catch up with Rory."

He wasn't even looking at me anymore. He only had his eyes on the beautiful, blue-eyed princess who needed major rescuing. And I was fine with that. I leaned up and kissed him on the forehead. "Let me know before you head of to the wilderness. I want to say goodbye."

I watched them leave, and I knew exactly where they were going. I smiled at the thought of their romantic bridge hideaway, and skipped off to Luke's. And I don't skip often, either.

"Mom! Guess who's here? Jess. Isn't that awesome?"

"What? I don't see how. He's just going to hurt Rory all over again. Luke, why didn't you tell me he was coming? Does he know about us?"

Luke reassured her as I had one of his salads (something that Mom and Rory had never tried).

I looked around the diner, and saw Kirk trying to sell Miss Patty and Babette something. Everything was at peace in Stars Hollow. For now.
