Disclaimer: Sorry, you've got the wrong girl. I don't own Gilmore Girls.
Please hang up and try again.
Author's Note: Hey! I'm sorry that everyone didn't like my last chapter, that's just how I wanted to write it. And with the whole past tense, present-tense thing, I noticed that too, but when I went to try and fix it I was only making it worse, so I just posted it that way. That's my writing weak-spot. I know that it was a little fast, sorry, I'll try to slow it down a little. Ok, in this chapter I'm going to try to describe the rooms in a little bit more detail so that they're easier to see in your head (I don't know if everyone tries to see that kind of thing in their head, but I do). Anyway, if you think that these weird descriptions don't really fit with the story, they probably don't. I just wanted to put them in. R&R! Enjoy!
Chapter 5: Jaw Droppers and Breakfast Dinners
Lorelai and Luke were sitting together, Lorelai leaning up against Luke, in their living room. They were on the floor, staring at their entertainment system, which was turned off. The floor is a deep red color, and the entertainment system is mainly silver and black. The room was fairly large, and they still had a lot of space to fill up. "You know, Luke, this place is really white. The carpeting is good and all, but all the walls are white. Can we paint them?" Lorelai asked.
"Sure." Luke replied, leaning his head to rest on Lorelai's, which was resting on his shoulder.
Just then the two heard a loud, deep * ding, dong *. Lorelai jumped, and said, "Luke, that oven that's installed in the kitchen is weird. What are you cooking, anyway?"
Luke rolled his eyes at Lorelai. "No, Lorelai, that's the doorbell. Not the oven, the doorbell." Luke clarified for her in a slow voice.
"Oh. Oh! That means that there's someone at the door! Our first visitor!" Lorelai said as she jumped up to go answer the door. Luke followed behind her into their front hall. They first traveled through a large mahogany doorway that they had keep open since they moved in, but could still be closed if they wanted to. The front hall is smaller than the living room, but still large. The carpeting is a deep blue, and the walls are, of course, white. The two expertly maneuvered around the boxes and reached an even larger mahogany door. Lorelai grabbed the large doorknob, and pulled it open. Standing outside their door was Emily Gilmore, in a knee length coat and a dress, standard for Emily. Lorelai's jaw dropped, and she just stood there, staring at her mother. Luke gently tapped Lorelai in the jaw, and she snapped her mouth shut.
"Well, aren't you going to invite me in?" Emily asked, her gaze shifting around the front door.
"Of course. Please come in, Mrs. Gilmore." Luke said. Lorelai got the hint and opened the door wider, pointing towards the living room. "Lorelai, it's not polite to stare." Luke told her in a quiet voice.
"What is she doing here? She hardly ever came to my old house, and then the day after we move into a new mansion, she's on my doorstep?" Lorelai muttered to him in a hushed tone as well.
"Well, let's go find out," Luke said, escorting her into the living room with his arm around her waist.
"So, Mom, what are you doing here?" Lorelai asked.
"What, am I not welcome here?" Emily inquired, clearly offended by Lorelai's behavior.
"No, Mom, that's not what I mean. Its just, well, you never used to visit me before, do you need something? Is Dad ok?" Lorelai asked, trying to think of possible reasons of why her mother had shown up all of the sudden.
"Yes, Richard is fine. I just wanted to give you this." Emily handed her a check. Lorelai and Luke looked at it, and this time it was Luke who's jaw was dropped. Lorelai elbowed him in the ribs, and he shut his mouth.
"But why? Why are you giving me this money all of a sudden?" Lorelai asked gently, dumbfounded at her mother's actions.
"Well, Richard and I were going through our expenses, and we found this money that we had set aside to give to you when you were grown up and had a job, and then we found out that you and Rory had won a new house, so we added on a little extra." Emily explained.
"Are you sure you want me to have this?" Lorelai asked.
"Well, Richard wants you to have it, and I'm ok with it if you share the money with Rory." Emily said, looking down at the deep red carpet.
"Wow. Thanks, Mom." Lorelai said, and then she did something she hardly ever does. She hugged her mother. Lorelai pulled away, and said, "Is there anything else? Do you want a tour of the house?"
"No, no, I have to be going." Emily started to walk out, and then turned on her heel and said, "Oh, wait, there is one more thing."
"What?" Lorelai said. She knew that there had to be some kind of a catch.
"You may keep the money, if your friend, Luke, and his nephew, Jess, come with you and Rory to our Friday night dinners."
Lorelai gave Luke a panicked glance, and he said, "That's just fine, Mrs. Gilmore. The four of use will see you on Friday."
"Goodbye." Emily said, and she exited their house.
Lorelai turned to face Luke, and said, "Luke, you and Jess don't have to do this. I mean, it's only money."
"Lorelai, I probably would have started coming along with you anyway. Besides, it can't be that bad, can it?" Luke said.
"Actually."
"We're all four going. We'll all live through it, and no Gilmores will be hurt in the eating of those dinners. Ok? Ok." Luke said, and he walked into the front room to get some more boxes to unpack.
"Hey, wait for me," Lorelai said, and she placed down the check for $750,000 on top of their new DVD player as she followed Luke.
After school.
Rory went into Star's Hollow after she got out of Chilton to go pick up Lane. She promised Lane that she would take Lane to go see her new mansion the day after she moved in. Rory pulled the SUV up in front of Lane's house, and Lane was already waiting outside. Lane hopped into the passenger's side, and they drove over to 1574 Rudker's Lane. "So, you and your mom must have more space than you know what to do with!" Lane said while they were driving.
"Well, we do have a lot of space, but Luke and Jess are living there too, remember?" Rory said.
"They actually went through with it? You have to live with Jess! That's got to suck, even in a big house." Lane mused.
"Lane, come on. Jess isn't that bad. You just need to get to know him." Rory defended.
"Right." Lane said. "Oh, is this it?"
"Yup. That would be why we're pulling into the driveway." Rory said. Rory drove the car up the circular driveway and parked it in front of the brick house. On the outside of the house, they could see vines crawling up the walls already, and beautiful rose bushes and other flowers. No one had taken the time to think about getting garage door openers, so they all had to park outside until they bought some. Jess' car was parked outside as well, showing that he was somewhere in the house. Lane and Rory hopped out of the SUV, and Lane said, "I still can't believe that Jess got a car. He's probably going to crash it into the house."
Rory sighed, and said, "Lane, please. Can we not get into this discussion?"
"Fine. So, your mom let you have the car for the day?" Lane said, changing the subject as they walked towards the mahogany front door.
"Yup. She's taken the next few days off of work, so that she can move in and all."
"Cool." Once inside the house, Rory gave Lane the big tour.
"So, on the right is Jess and my side, and on the left is Mom and Luke's side." Rory explained as she began to walk into the study.
"Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Did you say that your mom is living over here, on this side with Luke, and you are living over there, on that side, with JESS!" Lane exclaimed.
"Yeah."
"Rory!"
"Let's talk about this later, ok?"
"But Rory!"
"Come on." Rory said, and attempted to drag Lane into the study.
"No. I don't want to run into Jess." Lane said.
"Fine. We're all using the kitchen over here, so let's go get something to eat." Rory said. They walked through the ruby carpeted living room, the wooden floored dining room, and into the tiled kitchen. The tile was black, and all the appliances were chrome. Inside, Jess was sitting on a stool at the island in the middle of the room, eating an apple and doing homework. He looked up when the two girls entered, then looked back down at his work.
"Jess! What are you doing here?" Lane said, obviously frustrated.
"I live here, Lane."
"I know that, I just. Ugg! I didn't want to go over there," Lane pointed to her right, "because I thought that I would have to talk to you, and now you're over here, and I have to talk to you!"
"I'm sorry, Lane. I didn't know it was your day to eat in our kitchen. Would you mind typing up the schedule for kitchen ownership, and put it in my room?" Jess retorted.
"Would you two stop it?" Rory interjected.
"Sure, I'll just leave. It's not my day for the kitchen, after all." Jess said, closing his history book and gathering up his notes.
"What are you doing anyway?" Lane asked.
"Not that it's any of your business, but I'm taking history notes for that quiz we have on Wednesday. Remember, I'm in your class?" Jess said.
"Really?" Lane asked.
"Yeah." Jess said, and he walked outside through a white door.
"Wow, he is really annoying." Lane said.
Rory chose to drop the subject, and said, "So, do you want anything to eat?"
Outside.
Jess walked along the path made of rocks, and he ended up at a fork in the path. He chose to go right, and found himself at the door into his kitchen on his side of the house. So he went back, and went down the opposite path. Down this path, there were all kinds of plants and flowers, and then one of those grass mazes. He went through it, and when he came out on the opposite side, he found himself at a clearing with a fake stream and flowers and two huge trees. Hung in between those two trees was a hammock. He decided that he would come back to this one later, because he passed over two other openings in the maze. One held a small clearing with lots of flowers, and the other had the beginning of the fake stream, starting with a fake waterfall. He went back to his original spot, and lay down on the hammock and finished his history notes. By the time he came back inside Luke and Lorelai's kitchen, Lane was gone and Lorelai was running around the kitchen. She glanced up at Jess, and stopped what she was doing and said, "Jess! Thank God you're here! I told Luke that I would make dinner, but I don't know how to cook much of anything!"
"Well, neither do I." Jess said.
"That's ok. With you barely knowing how to cook, and me barely knowing how to cook, we can make up one average cook!" Lorelai said.
"Ok, I'll help you Lorelai." Jess said.
He put his history stuff down on the island, and Lorelai said, shocked, "Is that homework?"
"Yeah, I have a quiz on Wednesday, and I took some notes to study from tomorrow."
"Really?" Lorelai asked.
"Yeah. Why does everyone find that so hard to believe? First Lane and Rory didn't believe me, now you don't either."
"No, I believe you Jess, it's just. I don't know! It's weird seeing you do homework, I didn't think that you would do that kind of thing." Lorelai explained.
"What, you mean what the teachers assign?" Jess asked.
"Yeah, but I believe you now. So what do you want to cook?" Lorelai asked.
"I don't know. I can make pizza."
"You cook for Luke's in the morning, don't you?" Lorelai asked, an idea obviously forming in her mind.
"Sometimes, so?"
"Well, let's make breakfast for dinner! I know how to make some of that, and you know how to make some of that! It should work!"
"Ok, what all do you want to make?" Jess asked.
"How about bacon, and French toast, and pancakes, and eggs, and sausage, and waffles, and-"
Jess cut Lorelai off, saying, "That should be enough. It's only the four of us, right?"
"Yeah."
"Then that's enough food." Jess said.
Lorelai paused to think, and said, "Yeah, I guess you're right. Ok, you can make the French toast, eggs, and sausage, and I'll make the bacon, pancakes, and waffles. Ok?"
"Sure." Jess said.
"Good." Jess went to the pantry that Lorelai and Luke had recently stocked earlier that day, and got out bread and cinnamon. He then went to the newly stocked fridge, and got out eggs and sausage. Lorelai went to the freezer, and got out frozen waffles and microwave bacon. She then went to the pantry and got out pancake mix. Lorelai followed the directions on the pancake mix box, and Jess began to make the egg batter for the French toast. Finally the silence became too much for Lorelai, and she said, "Sooooo, what's going on with you, Jess?"
"Silence bothering you?"
"Yup." Lorelai replied quickly.
"What do you want to know?" Jess asked as he finished making the French toast and began to make eggs.
"Why was Rory in the same room with you last night?" Lorelai said as she finished the pancakes and began to make bacon.
"The storm freaked her out. No big deal."
"You like her, don't you?" Lorelai questioned.
"Uh, yeah, I thought you had figured that out by now."
"Jess, if you do anything to hurt her-"
"I won't because we aren't together."
"Yeah, but you will be, and I don't want to stand in your way, because I think that you can make her happy." Lorelai said, finishing up the bacon and starting to make the waffles.
"So, you and Luke are together?" Jess said, expertly changing the subject.
"Don't hurt her." Lorelai said.
"I won't. So, you and Uncle Luke?" Jess pressed as he finished the eggs and started to make sausage.
"Yeah, we are together now." Lorelai answered.
"Finally you two admitted to liking each other," Jess commented.
"Wow, I would have thought that you would think that we went to fast." Lorelai said.
"Too fast? You and Luke have known each other for like, what? Seventeen, eighteen years? It's about time!" Jess said.
"Yeah, you're right." Lorelai said.
"Done." Jess said.
"Done." Lorelai said right after Jess did. The two picked up their dishes and Lorelai turned to face Jess and push the door open with her back. "Now just go along with me." Lorelai said in a hushed tone.
"Ok." Jess said.
"Ok, Rory, Luke, I made all of this food all by myself, and-" Lorelai stopped talking, because when she entered the dining room with Jess, Dean was sitting at the table with Rory and Luke.
