EMILY & RICHARD

Lorelai and Rory walked home from the store. Lorelai gave Rory a bath and dressed her in a dark blue corduroy jumper with a white t-shirt underneath and white tights and black Mary Jane shoes. Lorelai got dressed in a black skirt that hit her at her knees, black boots and a light blue sweater. She wore her hair down and curly and put Rory's hair in pig tails. Lorelai left the house an hour early so she could stop to develop the pictures of when Luke and Jess were there. She got the pictures and threw them in her purse without looking at them. Her and Rory jumped into a cab and headed to the Gilmore house.

"OK sweets." She says picking up Rory. "Now mommy needs you to be very good in here. OK?"

"Otay mommy."

Lorelai rings the doorbell and waits for someone to answer. The maid comes to the door and greets them.

"Hi, I am Lorelai...the daughter."

"Come in please." The maid says moving aside to let them in. "Can I take you coats?"

Lorelai hands the maid her coat and purse and Rory's coat and diaper bag.

"Oh wait can I just grab her sippie cup out of there." Lorelai says.

"Your parents are in the living room." The maid says.

Lorelai takes Rory by the hand and heads into the living room.

"Hi mom. Hi dad." Lorelai says.

Richard was on the couch reading the paper and Emily was across from him trying to get him to put it down.

"Hello Lorelai" Emily says. "Come on in sit down. Would you like a drink?"

"Uh I'll take a coke."

"What about Rory?"

"Um she has her apple juice."

Emily gets up to get Lorelai a coke.

"Well Rory is certinly getting big." Richard says.

"Yes she is." Lorelai answers.

"Well we haven't seen her in quite a while so it was expected." Emily says as she hands Lorelai her drink.

Lorelai takes her drink "This is going to be a long night." She says to herself.

"Rory, go say hi to grandpa." Lorelai says gently pushing Rory toward Richard.

Rory goes over to Richard, both hands in front of her mouth and says a very quite "Hello." Richard picks her up and sits her on his lap.

"So...Lorelai."

"Oh boy." Lorelai mumbles.

"What was that?"

"Um oh yes..."

"Where are you living?'

"We live in Stars Hollow...it's a small town about twenty minutes from here.

"And you work?" Richard asks.

"Well no...not really me and Rory just rob local stores when we are down on cash." Lorelai pauses and realizes that no one is laughing. "Yes dad, I work at an inn 3 days a week...I am a maid."

"A maid three days a week?! How can you possibly afford a place to live and support Rory?! Emily asks.

"Well, mom, dad. I met some really nice people in Stars Hollow. William and Luke. I live with them."

"William and Luke?" Richard asks concerned.

"Yes, Will is Luke's dad. Luke is two years older then me...actually...i am...we are kind of... dating.

"So...you and your daughter from another man live with your new boyfriend. How nice."

"Mom..."

"Lorelai what do you know about these people?" Richard asks.

"Well Will is the nicest man I have ever met. He owns the hardware store in town and Luke works there also. They also helped me get the job...they are friends with the owner of the inn."

"Lorelai how could you move in with a man that is not the father of your daughter?" Emily says as she stands up."You just love to embarrass your father and I!"

"Mom...that is not true. I am happy. I have friends, I have a good job..."

"As a maid."

"Yes as a maid...what is wrong with that? I go to work and earn money there is no sham in that."

"Lorelai you come from better! You and Rory deserve better then living with a hardware store owner and his son!" Emily yells.

Rory gets scared and jumps off Richard' lap and runs to Lorelai.

"Mom...please."

"Lorelai if you don't care about yourself think of Rory. Don't you want a good life for your daughter?"

"Mom...she has a good life. She is around people who love her all the time."

"Lorelai come on your a smart girl do you really think a twenty year old man wants to be a father to his girlfriends kid?"

"Luke loves Rory more then anything. He would do anything for her." Lorelai tries to hold back her tears. "Just because people in your world would never help out other people doesn't mean the rest of the world is like that."

"Now Lorelai calm down. There is no need to raise your voice." Richard says.

"What kind of mother are you to just move yourself and your daughter into a strangers house?!" Emily asks.

"Mom...look the reason I called you was because I wanted Rory to know her grandparents...I didn't want to keep you from her. But if all your going to do is put me down and talk bad about the people I love most, and call me a bad mother then we are not going to be able to come here anymore."

Emily and Richard are both silent and stare at Lorelai who is obviously upset.

"Lorelai I know if we go and talk to Christopher he will still be willing to marry you." Emily says.

"You just don't give up do you." Lorelai says as she stands up and picks up Rory. "Mom I am with Luke...I love him...he loves me and Rory. I don't want to be with Chris!"

"Lorelai you had his child the proper thing to do..."

"Dad stop I am not interested in the proper thing to do. Don't you care about my happiness?"

"Of course we do Lorelai, what kind of a question is that? We also care about yours and Rory's well being. You belong with Chris. You both come from the same class!" Richard explains.

"Dad I don't want this life...I don't want this for Rory. I want her to know and love the both of you but I don't want to raise her in this world." Lorelai couldn't hold back the tears anymore. "We are leaving."

Lorelai and Rory leave the house. Lorelai walks down to the corner store to wait for a cab. When they get home Will is sitting in the living room watching T.V. Lorelai and Rory walk in Lorelai isn't crying anymore but her eyes are red and puffy and her eye makeup was running. Will looks up when he hears the girls walk in.

"Lorelai...what's the matter?"

Lorelai walks over and sits next to Will.

"It was awful. They said I embarrass them, that I am a bad mom and that they are ashamed of where i live and work." Lorelai says starting to cry again. Will puts his arm around her and pulls her towards him. "They don't care if I am happy they only want me to marry Rory's dad and live the way they do!"

"Lorelai you are a great mom. Rory is the luckiest little girl in the world." Will says as Rory climbs on the other side of him. "And there is nothing wrong where you work...Mia has nothing but good things to say about you...she says that you are the most reliable maid she has."

"I just don't understand why my happiness doesn't come first. I wouldn't care what Rory does when she gets older...as long as she is safe and happy."

"I know sweetie." Will says rubbing her arm. "Your parents just want the best for you."

"Well I have the best...here with you and Luke...I couldn't be happier anywhere else.

Will leans down and kisses the top of Lorelai's head.

"Are you hungry?" Will asks.

"Starving...we never made it to the eating part of the evining."

"OK...well since I am not a cook like Luke is I will go order us a pizza."

"Thanks Will. I am going to put Rory in her pajamas."

"OK I will call for the pizza."

Lorelai goes upstairs and changes Rory into her pajamas. She changes into some jogging pants and one of Luke's hoodies. When they go back downstairs Will is just hanging up the phone. Lorelai goes up to him and hugs him.

"Thanks." Lorelai says. "I am glad you were here. It made me feel a little better talking to you."

"You're welcome hon. Luke called earlier and said to have you call him when you got back from dinner."

"Oh OK well I will call him before the pizza gets here." Lorelai says. She grabs her phone and dials Luke's number.

"Hello?" Luke says.

"Hi." Lorelai says.

"Hey how was dinner?"

"Uh it was awful...my parents said that they were embarrassed and ashamed of me and they called me a bad mom." Lorelai says getting a little upset again. Will goes over to her on the couch and puts his arm around her again.

"Oh God, Lorelai are you OK?" Luke asks.

"Um yea I guess. Your dad being here is helping." Lorelai says smiling at Will.

"Well I am glad. I feel awful that I can't be there for you."

"Please don't. I will be fine. I mean I am still upset at what they said to me but I have to not let it bother me."

"OK well hey I will call you tomorrow afternoon. I have to get up early to help Liz with some stuff."

"OK we are waiting for a pizza anyway."

"Give Rory a kiss for me and tell her I will talk to her tomorrow."

"Will do... I love you."

"Love you too. Bye.

Luke and Lorelai hang up. Lorelai sits up and grabs her purse.

"I almost forgot I got my pictures developed." She says taking out the envelope. "Awww these came out good." She says handing them to Will.

"Definitely." He says laughing. "We will have to get some frames for these, we need some family pictures on the walls."

Lorelai looks at will and gives him another hug. "Thanks." She says.
