Chapter 6: Get Back to Work!
"Thank you very much," Rory said, finishing the last callback.
She had finally finished and now all she had to do was narrow the cast list down. She had to sit through another repeat of yesterday without the Lily auditions. After she and Lorelei finished Chinese food last night at Lorelai's house, Rory took out her audition notes and immediately started working. Lorelai, behind her, struggled to see the notes.
"I know you're behind me," Rory said.
"Um, no I'm not," Lorelai said.
"Mom, you'll find out tomorrow like everyone else."
"Will you at least let me take a look at the cast list before you post it?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because I love putting people in suspense."
"You let me look at the callback list."
"Well, if you see the cast list too soon, your ego will get bigger and you'll start acting snobby."
"So, you're protecting my ego."
"Exactly."
"That's so sweet... Let me see the cast list."
"No."
"You suck."
"That's too bad."
Lorelai stuck out her tongue and walked out of the kitchen. Rory sighed and rubbed her eyes. This was harder than she thought it would be. It's almost Christmas, thought Rory. I should be Christmas shopping or relaxing. I wonder if Dean...Oh, no, Gilmore hyphen Forester. Don't even go there. You have a situation at hand, now attack it.
Rory sighed. The first thing to do was tackle Elaine. The list in front of her was Lorelai, Sookie, and Babette. Babette was definitely bad so she crossed her off the list. It came down to Lorelai and Sookie. They were both pretty good. It was so hard to make a decision between the two.
Okay, Rory thought. Let's move on to Roy. It also came down to two people: Michel, Kirk, and Jackson. Jackson wasn't really great and he seem to want to audition. It seemed like he only wanted try out because Sookie was. It came down to Kirk and Michel. Michel was good, but so was Kirk. It was too hard to make this decision.
Time for a break, Rory thought. She got up and poured herself some milk and ate some cookies. Her thoughts drifted towards Dean. He was much better at making these kinds of decisions. She missed him. She mentally kicked herself as soon as the thoughts crossed her mind. Think about the play, Rory, she thought. Think about the play. She finished her cookies and milk and cookies and got back to work. She felt Lorelai's presence in the room again.
"Go away," Rory said.
"Oh, come on," Lorelai said.
"No. Go away. Go watch the Brady Bunch or something."
"Fine."
Lorelai turned on her heel and walked out.
To Be Continued....
A/N: That was Chapter 6. Boring, I know, but I have my reasons. Chapter 7 is coming soon.
