Hi this is my first fanfic. So please be kind ( I am a huge Gilmore fan,
and this is what I would like to have seen happen after Season 3 ended.
This is of course a Trory and it is based on my time working in a Country
Club, hope you enjoy!
Rory Gilmore wakes up to the smell of coffee the morning after her high school graduation. No matter where she was or who she was with, coffee would always make her think of home and her mom. All of the sudden Lorelai Gilmore comes walking in to her daughter's room holding two giant cups of coffee. Rory slides over on her bed to make room for her mom to plop down. They cuddle up as Rory leans her head on her mom's shoulder. It hurts Rory to much to look into her mother's face. Rory was up most of the night thinking about how she would break this news to her mom.
"Mom we need to talk." Rory finally spits out after moments of silence.
"I know babe, I know." Lorelai replies as she hugs Rory closer.
Rory takes in a giant swig of coffee and what she has to say comes out in one breath. "We can't go backpacking through Europe this summer no matter how bad either one of us wants to, because we just do not have the money, and I will be leaving for Yale.. and."
"Baby stop. You are scaring your beautiful mommy. I have to tell you I am so relieved to hear you say that this morning. I know we have been planning this trip since you could crawl, but now is not the time. I mean, we have so many summers ahead of us. We still have next summer and the following, and the following, and ooo ooo, the one after that would be great."
"Mom your babbling. But thank you for not being mad."
"I would never be mad at you hun. We're a team, we always have been. I was up half the night thinking about our trip. I need to stay in the states. I mean, Sookie can't do all this paperwork being pregnant and all. And leaving now could risk losing the S.F.S.I.W.I.M.."
"The .S.F.S.I.W.I.M.?"
"The Super Fabulous Sparkly Inn Which Is Mine. Just a name I am throwing around."
Rory smiles at her mom. The two share the same dark brown hair, intense blue eyes, and quirky sense of humor.
"Baby talk to me. I highly doubt you were up most of the night worrying about talking to me about this. I mean look, I agreed with you quite quickly."
Her mom can read her so easily. "Well half of the waking hours were spent thinking of how to tell you, the rest was something else."
"Jess?"
"Jess!" She moans and yells. She starts kicking and punching the blankets, pillows, stuffed animals, anything she can find.
"Ouch. Ouch. Ouch! Okay hitting me stop. Stop. Stop. Rory stop now." Lorelai reaches out and holds down Rory.
She lay still in her bed and looks up at her mother. "I think I went through all stages of Gilmore breakup last night. I wallowed, I boxed everything up, I yelled, and I started the violent phase this morning."
"Ooo. I came just in time for the prank phone call phase! It's my favorite part of the Gilmore breakup process!"
"Right, Right, I'll do it now and get it over with." Lorelai hands Rory the phone and she dials his cell phone number.
Jess quickly answered, "Hello?"
"Hi there, I'm looking for a Mr. Jess Mariano." she says in a fake voice.
"Yah this is he. What do you want?"
"Hi Mr. Mariano, I am calling from Soul Depot. I heard you are looking for a soul. Because you have apparently misplaced yours or maybe you were never born with one."
"Rory! Rory is that you, seriously that is so not cool."
*Click* Rory hung up the phone with a sense of satisfaction and looked at her mom who was rolling with laughter. "Okay I feel much better now!" The two hug and Lorelai smiles at her daughter, "Good sweetie, I'm glad. Now let us start planning the summer of Gilmore in the exotic location of.. Stars Hollow. First stop. Al's Pancake house."
Rory looks at her mom as though she is nuts. "Why in the world are we eating at Al's? We never eat breakfast there. I want Luke's. I am honestly cool with this Jess thing, I want Luke's coffee."
Lorelai dramatically falls back on Rory's bed. "It was nice having Luke at you graduation you know, he looked so proud of you. It was really wonderful having him he there."
"Mom, what is this about?"
"I'm feeling sort of weird and tingly around Luke. But good tingly, and I don't know where this is coming from. I mean he is my friend, my good friend. And I mean he's Luke! He wears flannel and baseball hats.. He's not really my type, but."
"But he gives you tingles."
"Yes! The good tingles. And I spent most of my night thinking about him on the boat with the evil lawyer lady."
"Mom, you can't spend too much time thinking about that. I know Luke cares for you, and maybe when he gets back you can tell him how you feel. But right now missy, we will occupy you with things to do! So get dressed and we can head out to Luke's and have Caesar make us some food!" Rory kicks her mom out of the room and proceeds to get dressed. She had a long day ahead of her. Telling her mom about canceling the Europe trip was only half the battle.
