Rory arrives in Venice Beach the next day around 5:30 pm, she finds the nearest hotel and it is Best Western Marina Pacific Hotel and Suites, she goes to check in and then they lead her to her room and she walks in and there is a little mini fridge and of course a Telephone and 1 king size bed and a bathroom coffee maker and cable television and other non-important accommodations, Rory then places her suit case against the wall then she decides to call her mother and then take a shower.
Rory's phone call to LorelaiThe Inn
Michelle: Hello, who is this?
Rory- Hi Michelle it's Rory, is my mom there?
Michelle- Rory…I do not know anyone by the name of Rory
Rory- Michelle I know she is close by can you just go get her
Michelle- fine, but only if you tell her to give me a raise!
Rory- yeah, ok fine
Michelle- ok hold on I'll get the crazy lady
(Few seconds later, Lorelai speaks)
Lorelai- hello my dear daughter, how is it going? Where are you?
Rory- hello mother, I am great and I am in California and it is so beautiful
Lorelai- one day I will come and see it
Rory- you should it should be worth the trip
Lorelai- so when are you planning on rescuing prince charming?
Rory- well he doesn't need rescuing but I want to take a shower first, then I am going to get food I am starved.
Lorelai- well don't let me interrupt your mission, and Sookie say's Hi and her baby too
Rory- Well tell them both I say Hi and also Jackson, and mom
Lorelai- yes…honey
Rory- I miss you, and I love you
Lorelai- me too baby…me too, so now go find yourself a man or if it truly has to be done go find Jess, bye babe
Rory- bye mom
Rory and Lorelai hang up and Rory goes to take a shower, she then grabs her messenger bag, and her room key, she heads for the beach then on the way to the boardwalk. At the beach she sees the waves crashing people surfing and the sun slowly getting ready to set in a few hours and then she ends up just standing there watching this fascinating city and the surroundings, she then heads to the board walk and sees a hot dog vender called "Inferno" and she decides that will do when it comes to satisfy her hunger she orders a hot dog with only ketchup and then also buys a Coke, she sits down at a table to eat, when she overhears a man on the telephone talking to someone by the name of Jess.
Jimmy- Hi Jess, No you don't have to work today, you have been putting in a lot of hours in the past few days, yeah we were planning on ordering Pizza for Dinner.
Rory realizes that is Jimmy and then she decided to go talk to him, to maybe introduce herself to him, but does he know that Jess is my boyfriend? , Well if I decide to go over to the house and everything goes well then I will meet Jimmy tonight and hopefully Sasha and Lily, god that letter Jess wrote Luke is very useful I feel as I have met them before but I know I haven't. Rory starts walking towards Jimmy and Sasha's house, till she ends up in front of a house that has a yard full of animals, the dogs start barking at her and she then sees the front door open and a woman with blonde hair and a bandanna walks up to the gate.
Sasha- Hi, what can I do for you?
Rory- well my name is Rory Gilmore and I am from Stars Hollow
Sasha- Stars Hollow
Rory- yup
Sasha- are you here to see Jess
Rory- Um yes
Sasha- Well how close our you to our Jess
Rory- What would you say, if I were to say dating?
Sasha- you're his girlfriend, I never knew he had a girlfriend but I always noticed him looking at a picture, but I never called him on it.
Rory- (oh my god he still carry's that picture, I thought I was the only one who still carried it) well here I am in the flesh and I just made it official
Sasha- well Jess isn't here, he just left but he should be back by six, so why don't you come in and maybe we can talk or just sit they're twirling our fingers whatever works for you.
Rory- ok, will talk it is much more fun then twirling fingers, believe me I have tried it before.
Sasha- really so have I and I am grateful you choose to talk, because it is extremely boring and I am anything but boring.
Rory- me too sometimes (they head for the kitchen)
Sasha- would you like a water bottle
Rory- yes please
(Sasha grabs two out of the fridge and hands Rory one, she then goes in to the living room and takes a seat on the love seat, Rory sits across from Sasha in a chair)
Sasha- so why are you boring sometimes
Rory- well I am kind of a nerd, so I constantly do my homework right away, and I am occasionally always talking about school, and some or almost all always find that topic boring.
Sasha- well just because you usually talk about school does not mean your boring it means that in a way you enjoy it and there are some aspects of school that could actually be interesting.
Rory- yeah I agree
Sasha- so what are your interests?
Rory- I am like Jess, we both have the same interests
Sasha- really, that is cool, so do you have just as many books as Jess does?
Rory- yup, we both love to read
Sasha- Good, it's good that Jess at least has something to be interested in when he is at school, it may even motivate him to finish his final year.
Rory- yeah about that, did he by any chance take any courses for the summer?
Sasha- No he did not, but he promised that he is going to take some in September to be able to get his diploma.
Rory- I told him, if he ever needed help he could come to me, but he didn't
Sasha- did you and he go to the same school
Rory- no I went to Chilton prep and I had to were a very ugly uniform, but Jess always said I looked Hot in it
Sasha- Well men love the legs, so Chilton, wow that was probably as tough as they say it is
Rory- oh yeah it was brutal, but after 4 years of Hell aka Chilton I finally got out and got my diploma on the last week of June for commencement, but It feels good because I never have to go back there again, to experience that kind of stress.
Sasha- it's good to get away from that, I remember thinking that same thing, when I graduated high school. Did you get in to any universities?
Rory- actually 3
Sasha- wow, good for you, which one's?
Rory- Harvard, Yale, Princeton
Sasha has a shocked look on her face
3 of the Ivy league schools, wow congratulations darling, which did you choose
Rory- Well ever since I was really little, it's always been Harvard but then I met Jess all the way back in Grade 9 and we hooked up and I realized I would hardly ever be able to come home, to see my mother, my grandparents and my boyfriend. So I chose to go to Yale, because it is in close proximity with Stars Hollow.
Sasha- Well I wish you good luck, so you're really close with your mother
Rory- Yes she is my best friend she is 35, she had me when she was 16, my father and her never got married he wasn't there too see my birth and he wasn't there all my life, but It doesn't bug me, that he wasn't there because she did the best job ever.
Sasha- where your grandparents involved
Rory- Nope, mom left the hospital when I was born and we moved to stars hollow, we lived in a shed at the inn that my mother is now the manager of, and I grew up with no money.
Sasha- wow, that is a very touching story and I can see that you and your mother have really come a long way, with only each other, so could I ask you another question?
Rory- yeah sure
Sasha- so I am guessing that everything worked out with your grandparents if you are in contact with them
Rory- yes mom and my grandmother Emily Gilmore are once again talking, and it was grandma that allowed me to go to Chilton, and we go over for dinner every Friday night, my grandparents enjoy the company.
Sasha- Well Rory, I really appreciate you telling me this. It is almost six; maybe you can go look for Jess. I am sure he'll be happy to see you, he should be at the bookstore called "Venice Books", and do you know how to get there?
Rory- nope (Sasha tells Rory how to get there) Thank-you soo much, I really appreciate all this
Sasha- no problem, oh by the way when you find him, bring him back here so we can say goodbye to both of you before you guys leave to go home.
Rory- will do
Rory walks out of the house past all the animals and she heads towards the bookstore.
