Lorelai flopped down on her bed and grabbed her phone. She dialed Christopher's number.
"Chris?" Lorelai turned onto her stomach.

"Hey, Lor," Christopher said. "What's up?"

"Not much.. I was just wondering.. did you get my corsage yet?" Lorelai tried to sound nonchalant.

Chris laughed. "No, not yet."

"Great! Okay, could you get an orchid?" She asked pleadingly.

"Sure, I guess. Lor, this isn't that big of a deal you know. It's just junior prom," Chris said.

"Duh! Hello, I'm a sixteen year old girl.. anything with the letters 'p-r-o-m' is important to me," Lorelai replied.

Christopher laughed again. "How about mopper?" He asked teasingly.

"OOooo.. not funny!" Lorelai said.

He chuckled and said, "I gotta go now. See you later?"

"K, bye."

Lorelai put the phone down and went downstairs to see if there was anything to eat. Downstairs, the kitchen was deserted. Lorelai looked left and right for Lisse, their newest housekeeper. "Helloo?" Lorelai called out. No one seemed to be around. She walked over the refridgerator and opened it. "Ugh, squid, snails.. cow's tongue!?" She paled. "It's like a zoo in here." She closed the refridgerator door and opened the freezer. She spotted a pint of chocolate ice cream.

"We have a winnneerrrrrr!"

Grabbing the carton, she smoothly took a spoon from the dishwasher and dashed to the living room.

"Lorelai!"

Lorelai stopped short at the sound of her mother's voice.

"Lorelai, what are you doing?" Emily asked, with her hands on her hips.

"Uh.. I got hungry.. And now I'm going to watch some tv?" Lorelai half asked, half said.

Emily sighed and took the ice cream from her. "You know the prom is tomorrow night? You don't want to feel bloated, do you?"

"MOoooom," Lorelai whined. "I don't feel bloated after eating ice cream. And who cares? I fit into my dress."

Emily raised an eyebrow. "Trust me, you'll thank me tomorrow. I want you and Christopher to look presentable at tomorrow's dance."

"Ugh, we will," Lorelai rolled her eyes. "We're going as Tweedledee and Tweedledum, anyways."

Emily looked confused. "Go upstairs and do your homework," Emily said and started to walk back to the kitchen. "Samantha!"

"Mom, her name's Lisse.. Samantha left, remember?" Lorelai called out.

"Oh, right. Lisse," Emily said.

*******************************

Lorelai groaned as she adjusted her dress. "I hate dresses," She said out loud.

"Me too," Christopher said. "You look great." He smiled at her.

"Hm.. I'm trying to picture you in a dress," Lorelai said. "Huh.. scary!" She laughed.

Christopher smiled. "You're psycho."

"Hey, don't envy the creative ones. We are the future. Guess what?"

"What?"

"I'm wearing sneakers under my dress," Lorelai said proudly.

"Okay.... And I'm supposed to say..."

"Lorelai, you're a genius," Lorelai answered. "I hate those shoes that my mom picked out. I hope she doesn't go into my closet cuz I left them there."

"Heh, she probably will. Then she'll find the stash of pot there," Christopher said.

"I'll just tell it's yours," Lorelai said promptly.

Christopher smirked. "You're the crazy one, not me.. This prom sucks. I don't get what's up with all the hype."

"Yeah, the music sucks," Lorelai said as she made a face. "Let's leave."

"Our parents are gonna get pissed off," Christopher said.

"Puh-lease. They're not even here. They don't have to listen to this music. But we do. You have a car. Let's goooo," Lorelai said. She pouted.

"Geez, I need to learn how to do that," Christopher said.

"I don't think it'd be as cute on you," Lorelai smiled. "Besides, you're cute enough already."

"Awww, sheesh," Christopher joked. "You're swell, Sissy. Real Swell!"

"Oh, Buddy. I'd just die, just die if you didn't think I was swell!" Lorelai said in a high pitched voice and put a hand to her forehead. "I'll have your babies!"

"Let's go," Christopher said, laughing.

*******************************

Ten minutes later, Chris's Porsche were parked at the top of Jamison Hill. Lorelai had kicked off her shoes and Chris had taken off his tie and jacket. They were sitting on the hood of his car, looking down at the city below.

"Well, I hope senior prom is better," Lorelai said.

"Yeah," Chris said.

"Hey, Buddy. You're kinda quiet tonight," Lorelai said.

"Uh.. well, I've had something on my mind," Chris replied.

"What?" Lorelai faced him. Chris blushed.

"Well.. uh.. you know, we've been going out for a while now," Chris started.

"Oh my gosh. Don't tell me you're going to say what I think you're going to say!" Lorelai said with a surprised look on her face.

"Uh, maybe," Chris said.

"You're talking about...that, right?" Lorelai said.

"Yeah," Christopher looked down at his feet.

"Look.. Chris, you're great. And I like you a lot, but I'm not ready for that...," Lorelai started.

"Okay, I understand," Chris said. "Hey, it's kinda late. Let's head back." He jumped off the hood, opened the driver's door, and sat down.

Lorelai frowned at him. "Are you mad?"

"No, I'm not mad," Christopher said curtly.

"What! This is not fair, Chris. You can't just expect these things to happen. DId you honestly think that I was gonna be like, 'sure, take your clothes off, you sexy thing, you?'" Lorelai said angrily. "I'm sixteen. You're sixteen. We're too young... besides, what if something happened?"

"I don't know, okay?" Chris said. "Get in the car." He started the engine.

"No," Lorelai said and folded her arms.

"Lorelai! Come on," Chris was starting to get angry.

"NO," Lorelai turned around. "What part of 'no' don't you understand? Is it 'no' that you don't understand? I said 'N-O'."

"FINE!" Chris backed the car up. "Do whatever you want!"

"I CAN'T EVEN BELIEVE WE'RE HAVING THIS CONVERSATION!" Lorelai screamed at him.

Chris's face was completely red. "We're over!" He said as he drove away.

Lorelai covered her eyes with her hands and fell to her knees. Her white dress was getting dirty, but she didn't care.
