"What do you mean, what am I doing here?" said Emily. "Am I not invited to your new place? I can leave if you don't want me here."
"No Grandma, it's fine." said Rory, trying to cover up a sigh and an eye roll. Who shows up without calling. "I'm just shocked. Want to come in?"
"I don't want to be a bother." said Emily, though walking in. "I just thought I should see the place before everyone else gets to - and before you have the baby."
"Grandma, that's about a half a year away." said Rory. "But we literally just finished moving in."
"Looks pretty moved in to me." said Emily looking around.
"Trust me, everyone is in the living room resting." said Rory. "Let's go in and say hello." Rory says the last sentence a little louder, hoping to give everyone a heads up."
"Hey Mom." said Lorelai, managing to sit up on the couch. "What a surprise."
"A surprise I want to see my granddaughter's house?" said Emily. "Why is that a shock?"
"Just they just moved in today, Mom." said Lorelai. "As in we all just finished getting them settled in." Lorelai pointed at others in the room.
"Oh please tell me you hired movers." said Emily, looking at Rory and Logan. "It's the professional way to do it and you guys could get hurt moving furniture."
"We did for the heavy stuff, Emily, but for the last of it and clothes, we figured we could handle it." said Logan, standing up. "It was a little tiring, but fun to have help from family settling in."
"Family?" said Emily, giving Rory and then Lorelai a look. "I thought the wedding was in December? You didn't get eloped? Don't tell me you got eloped..."
"No, Mom, he just means us." said Lorelai. "We're soon to be family and as I've told Logan, he's free to start looking at us as family." Luke nodded along with Lorelai, though wanting to stay out of it as him and Emily still failed to get along.
"Oh." said Emily. "Well don't I at least get a tour?"
"Sure, Grandma." said Rory, thinking she much rather would crash on the couch for an hour or two. "Follow me please."
After giving Emily the tour, watching Emily give approval looks at some things and disapproving looks at others, and proceeding to make small talk in the living room for about an hour, Rory couldn't resist trying to give her mom the 'save me' look. Lorelai returned with the 'but then I'll be dealing with her' look. Lorelai sighs. "Hey Mom, want to go back to our place for a bit? Let the kids finish settling in. It is their first night."
"Well that sounds like a good idea." said Emily, getting up and getting her purse. Logan stands and helps her with her jacket while Lorelai and Luke get ready to go.
"Ok, Rory and Logan, enjoy." said Lorelai, giving Rory an 'you owe me' look. "See you guys later? Maybe call tomorrow at least?"
"Will do, Mom." said Rory, being thankful to her mom for taking Emily off their hands. "We'll talk as much as always."
Lorelai and Luke leave with Emily and Rory shuts the door behind them. "So Mr Huntzberger, whatever do you want to do on our first night here? Or are you too tired?" Rory winks at Logan.
Logan gives Rory a smile before picking her up and heading up the stairs. "Never too tired for you. And I'll show you what I want to do, Miss Gilmore." Both Logan and Rory giggle.
