Chapter 23: All the news that's fit to gossip.

That afternoon as Lorelai neared Star's Hollow, she picked up her cell and hit the speed dial for the Inn. A couple of minutes later after her call had been answered and redirected, she heard Sookie in concerned voice ask, "Lorelai?"

"Yeah it's me."

Sweetie, I've been worried. You sounded like something was really bothering you this morning."

"Well let me tell you it has gotten worse."

"Lorelai what happened?"

"Come over to my house right after work and I'll tell you. But do me a favor, come straight there and don't talk to anyone else. Okay?"

"Sure, I promise," Sookie answered sounding confused.

"Okay, well I'll see you then. Bye."

"Bye."

Lorelai parked near Luke's and went inside. She was glad that Luke wasn't visible, because he might start asking questions, she didn't want to deal with now. She bought two cups of coffee to go, from Creaser and waked back outside.

Lorelai had lived in Stars Hallow a long time and know how juicy news spread, so she knew how to get it spread the fastest and how to try to control it the best. She walked across the town square and right to Miss Patty's.

Miss Patty saw Lorelai walking towards her and said, "Lorelai sweetie, what's new with you?"

Lorelai handed Patty one of the coffee cups and said, "Well Patty, I'll tell you."
