NEXT DAY IN NEW YORK
(Jess's POV)
A new day, same old hell. Deep breaths, in and out, in and out.
Carefully, Jess opened the door to the office and walked up to the secretary's desk.
"Good morning Ms. Slack, how are you on this fine morning?" Jess asked, in mock sweetness.
"Here again? What now, no chairs in the classrooms?"
"Oh, you know me, way too much work for that. Although for the first time I am not in trouble."
"Really, then what do you need?" asked the secretary wearily, all too well acquainted with Jess and his misbehavior.
"Just a small talk with Mr. Close."
"Walk right in, and I better not hear any yelling from you."
"Yes Sir!" Jess saluted before walking into the principals office and sitting down.
Now all I have to do is be polite, although that could lead him to believe I have something going on, best to stay in usual character minus the short temper. Nah, maybe I'll humor him.
"Hey, Close, how are you?"
"Now what did you do?" asked the exasperated principal.
"Nothing."
"Really, then what are you doing here?"
"A friend of mine needs to do a report on a high school, she asked if she could be a student for a day here."
"Where does this friend attend school?"
"Chilton Prep."
"Let's say that this is real, can you tell me where this school is, the name of the person, and why I should belive you?"
"Chilton is in Hartford, Connecticut. Her name is Lorelai Gilmore but everyone calls her Rory. She's seventeen years old and lives in Stars Hollow. That's the town that I lived in while I was gone, that's how I met her." "Just give me her phone number and I'll call, them I'll get back to you."
Jess quickly scribbles down the phone number and hands it to the principal.
"I'd call around 5 that way you can be sure to catch her."
Without another word Jess walks out of the office. In the background the principal is seen shaking his head.
**** Authors Note: thanks to all those who reviewed; really ups a girls self- esteem. You know the whole, "They like me, they really like me!" bit. I'll try to update when I can, but with exams in two weeks, don't expect miracles. I know this story is impossibly short right now but hopefully it'll beef up in the future. Thanks to those who asked where Rory would sleep, I hadn't even thought of that one yet!
Read and Review, Please and Thank You
