Chapter 5
Rory was laying on her bed, confused. She had decided to make up with her mother this evening, but she hadn't come home yet. And it was 10.30, all ready. Suddenly, she heard the front door close. She ran out to greet Lorelai, but she walked past her daughter, ignoring her. They even sat through one dinner and 1 ½ movie without talking at all. When, the third commercial hit the second movie, Rory broke the silence.
"Mom."
"Rory?" She asked questioning her daughter.
They just sat there staring at each other. Lorelai, with a sceptical look, and Rory, with a hopeful one. They were both inches away from tears. Rory broke the silence, again.
"I'm back" She smiled, tears in her eyes.
"You took your time" She smiled and hugged her daughter.
"I've missed you so much!"
"You to, babe!"
They just talked all evening, and told each other all about the updates in their lives.
"So, Mrs. Lorelai Leigh DuGrey?" Lorelai laughed.
"Please, mom, we're friends and barely that. I don't like Tristan!"
"No, not yet, but you think he's hot!"
"Well, at least we know there's nothing wrong with my eyes."
They continued, now it was 4.51 in the morning.
"So, how are you planning to win the town over?" Lorelai asked.
"I don't know, I've been so mean. I don't know what to do."
"Well, since Miss Patty only forgives once, you've blown your chances with her and-"
Rory interrupted her, "Hey, when did she have to forgive me?"
"Hello??? When you gave up ballet lessons, she was devastated, remember?" Lorelai mocked.
"So, not the time, mom!"
"Well, daughter, we only have about 1 hour of sleep ahead of us, so I suggest, we use it well!"
"Okay, night, mom. I love you." She kissed her cheek.
" I love you to honey." She smiled, watching Rory walk in to her bedroom.
She had got her daughter back.
The next morning, Rory went to Luke's along with Lorelai. They walked in and sat down at their usual table. Lorelai walked up to the counter, before Luke had a chance to walk up to them.
"Hey, burger boy! Two coffees and pancakes!"
"So, she's back, huh?" He asked in a sceptical tone.
"Yeah, she's back." Lorelai smiled.
"You're happy." He stated.
"Yeah, I'm happy, now."
"Good, I'll be right over with those pancakes."
"Hey, don't forget the coffee!" She smiled and walked over to her daughter.
Rory was so much happier today, Lorelai meant everything to her and now they were best friends again. She had a smile all over her face when she arrived at Chilton. To bad she didn't leave with one.
