Disclaimer: I do not own Gilmore Girls. The only characters I own are the
ones that you do not recognise. If I owned Gilmore Girls, then the
Australian television network might not have cut off the season halfway
through, just as it was getting to the good parts. Also Jess would have
stayed well and truly where he was!!
Chapter Two:-
The bell above the door at Luke's Diner jingled as Lorelai, Rory and Amber walked in, Taylor's distant comment in their ears. Rory and Amber headed for a large table near the window as Lorelai made her way over to Luke and planted a loud smacking kiss on his lips as she wrapped her arms around Luke and snatched the coffee pot behind him, before dancing away and over to the table. Luke scowled briefly and covered his face with his hands as Lorelai poured a cup of coffee for Amber "Ambrosia, please. Don't do it. You're still young, don't throw your life away on this, this addiction" Luke begged and groaned as Amber inhaled the rich scent before taking her first sip "Too late Grandpa Luke" Amber smiled sweetly as she took another sip and looked up at Luke with her big, crystal blue eyes. Her mother's eyes, although the shape was entirely like her father's. Luke sighed and looked down at the floor, and Amber knew she had him right where she wanted. Luke could never resist her when she looked at him like that and when she called him 'Grandpa Luke' he was a goner. As Luke took their order Amber was joined by her 'aunt' and 'uncle'. Six year old Amelia and eight year old Ryan were Luke and Lorelai's two children. Ryan and Amber were like brother and sister, and people who didn't know them constantly mistook them for twins. They both had the same brown hair, the same Gilmore blue eyes and the same warped Lorelai logic, as Luke called it. The Lorelai Logic that both Amber and Ryan had inherited was the reason that they had been in separate classes for the past two years. Ryan had skipped a year of school to catch up with his brilliantly intelligent 'niece' and Amber wasn't very occupied with her school work, preferring to hide her genius level IQ behind only-just-better-than-average grades. Rory was slightly disappointed with her daughter's current academic record but figured that Amber would find something she loved, aside from torturing her teacher (and Taylor) and then she would care about school. Sometimes Amber was too much like her father.
Breakfast was hurried and the kids were deposited at school by Lorelai and Rory on their way out to the Dragonfly Inn, that Lorelai and Sookie had owned and operated since the Independence Inn had burnt down. Life for Rory had been different to what everyone had expected of her, but she was happy. When she had returned from Europe with her mother, she already knew she was pregnant. Instead of wallowing in self pity over not being able to go to Yale, Rory instead focused on the tiny life growing inside her. She took a job at Luke's waiting tables until the Inn opened up and from then on she split her time between the Dragonfly and Luke's. And when Amber was born, she built her world around her precious baby girl, the same way her own mother had with her. And as Amber got older, Rory completed a journalism degree at Hartford Community College and began her career as a freelance features writer. Rory knew she could have had a brilliant career in a big city somewhere, but she couldn't leave Stars Hollow. She had had some incredible opporiunities offered to her over the years, but she knocked each and every one of the down. For Amber. So that Amber could have the same crazy upbringing that she had had and so that if Jess eventually came back to Stars Hollow, then his daughter would be there.
