Tomboy
By Emily Carol
Summary: AU - Richard and Emily forced Lorelai and Christopher to put Rory up for adoption after she was born. Now Rory's 16 and living in a family full of boys on the outskirts of New York City. A search for her actual mother on her 16th birthday throws her into a life she never expected. Can a tomboy like her stand it?
Disclaimer: I don't own Gilmore Girls (and I didn't last chapter either... life can be so unfair)

Chapter 12
***
A week had gone by and Rory was living comfortably with Lorelai in what Lorelai refered to as 'The Crap Shack'.
Rory staggered out of her room and into the kitchen where Lorelai said staring into a cup of coffee.
"Mom?" Rory asked with a yawn walking over to the coffee pot and pouring herself some. "You okay?"
"Chris called," Lorelai said.
"Chris?" Rory hadn't heard that name in the last week. Who was he?
"Your dad," Lorelai said. She looked like she wished she would just fall into the cup of coffee in her hands.
"Oh," Rory said not sure of what to say.
"He found out you're here and he wants us to visit him," Lorelai said.
"Is there something bad about that?" Rory asked.
"Rory," Lorelai said finally looking up. "Your dad and I were only 16 when we had you. He offered to marry me and I refused because I didn't want to be married so early in my life. I figured we could stay together and get married when we were older. Well he didn't stick around. The day we graduated high school he ran off to Princeton and met another girl there and got her pregnant. Of course he offered to marry her too, and she accepted. They live in Hartford with two children in their mansion. When I found out he'd ran off to Princeton I figured, that was it. I packed up my bags and ran away from there. I stayed as a maid in at an Inn, the one I now run, and lived there in a small cottage in the backyard until I saved up enough for this house. But the fact that Chris didn't want to be a part of my life and now wants to be a part of yours, it just hurts."
Rory nodded and gave her mom a hug, "Don't worry, you will always come first."
Lorelai smiled. "Well you better get ready."
"For what?" Rory asked. "It's Saturday."
"We're visiting your father."
