Chapter Five

~*~

            Lorelei was awakened the next morning by the maid.  She had gotten home late that night, around 11:30.  Luckily, her parents were both sound asleep when she snuck in the house.  'Another Sunday morning.  I used to like Sunday's, but now I know they mean that tomorrow is school.  School.  I haven't been to school in so long!  I hope I didn't have any homework over the weekend.  That would be a great way to start out the week, with an F on an assignment.'

            Everyone was in the living room trying to make a conversation.

"Lorelei, do you have any plans for today?"  Emily questioned.

"Not that I know of.  I was thinking of maybe going and seeing Christopher, or going to this small town I heard of named Stars Hollow." She replied.

"Stars Hollow?  I've heard of that place before.  Some friends of mine who came to visit about a year ago stayed in an Inn in Stars Hollow.  It was a very fine Inn indeed.  I believe it was called the Independence Inn."  Richard said.  Lorelei almost choked on her water.

"The Independence Inn?  Are you sure that was the name of it?" she asked.

"Why yes.  I am almost positive." Richard answered.

"Why Lorelei?  Do you know something about this place?" Emily questioned.

"Oh no," Lorelei lied, "I have just heard the name a couple of times.  I really need to be going.  It's almost noon and I wanted to get a head start."

"A head start for what?  A few minutes ago you said that you didn't really have plans.  That you might see Christopher or stop at that Stars Hollow place."

"Exactly mom, I want to see Chris and go to Stars Hollow."

"Well alright.  Be home by 6:15.  No later."

"Alright. Bye mom, dad."  And then Lorelei left.  She was going to Stars Hollow, but she wasn't sure about going to see Chris.  She just wasn't ready to face him.

"Lukey!!!!!!!  I need coffee!"  Lorelei yelled as she walked through the door to Luke's Diner.  Right away everyone in the diner stopped talking and looked at her.  Finally a brown haired lady said to a Blonde, "Who is she?  And how does she know Luke?"

The blonde replied, "I don't know.  Maybe she was an ex-girlfriend who moved away from here when she was younger because she was into some trouble and then her parents finally think she is ready to move back here and she and Luke are just picking up right where they left off."

"That is a very good idea, Babette.  We should get started in telling everyone."  And then they were gone.  'Patty and Babette!  They sure are the same.  I should have been more careful.  Now everyone is going to think Luke and I are dating!'

"Lorelei!  Come here."  An angry Luke yelled.  He walked into the storage room closely followed by Lorelei.

"Yes daddy?"  Lorelei said like a little girl who had just been caught giving her broccoli to the dog.

"Oh brother.  Don't give me that.  Now, do you have any idea who those people were?"

"Patty and Babette."

"How did you know that- wait, I know, it's because you are from the future, right?"

"Yes.  Why are you being so grouchy today?  Yesterday you were so cool and you acted like you believed me, and today you're, you're,"

"Human?  Look Lorelei, I want to believe you, but it's kind of hard.  You are just going to have to give me some time to figure stuff out.  I'm also grouchy because I am very serious about work, and you barging in screaming Lukey at the top of your lungs is a bit distracting."

"I'm sorry.  In the future you don't usually get so mad when I do that.  I'm just use to doing everything I do in the future, because I'm acting like myself in the future, not some 16 year old.  I may look 16, but I'm not."

"Ok.  Look, I'm sorry too.  I just got a little aggravated because I'm not use to you coming in and doing that.  Plus I'm already in a bad mood because this guy came in and was bugging me to put up some fliers for the next stupid festival thing we do."

"Oh my God!  Taylor!"

"Yeah.  You really must be from the future."

"I told you!" Lorelei stuck her tongue out at him.

"Are you sure this is how you act in the future?  Because you told me you were 34 in your so called future and you are acting like a 4 year old," Luke joked.

"I resent that!" Lorelei said in mock hurt.  The two talked a little more and Lorelei got coffee and then she left.

Lorelei drove onto the Gilmore residence driveway at 5:55.  She got out and went up to her room.  She was exhausted.  She had a wonderful day.  After she left Luke's she went to the Independence Inn and got a little something to eat, but didn't finish it.  She could tell that it was definitely not Sukie's cooking.  

Lorelei lay down on her bed and decided to take a nap before dinner.  She didn't remember every being so tired! She changed into some pajamas and then fell to the bed, already feeling herself drift into an easy sleep.
