Summary: Rory comes back from Washington to some different surprises.

*Just so there is no heart attacks on this story, Rory will NOT become pregnant anytime soon. But hey, maybe if my story goes as far as I hope, it could happen. But it won't happen anytime during her high school career.*

It was Thursday night and Rory and Lorelai were at Luke's. They were sitting at a corner table eating their burgers and fries.

"So hey, I don't have to go into work tomorrow until 11, so I figured we could go shopping for a bit and then I'll go in." Lorelai suggested while chewing on a fry.

"Mom, I'm supposed to be home because I am sick. Not to go shopping, I mean, what would happen if I saw someone at school?" Rory asked.

"We can just hide or something. Ooh! We can pretend we are manikins. I've always wanted to do that." Lorelai smiled and Rory just laughed.

"No, but I need clothes. Please, if you come I promise I will buy you a book." Lorelai begged.

"Well.." Rory hesitated.

"2."

"3."

"Done!" Rory smiled.

"Pleasure doing business with ya." Lorleai said and took a sip of the coffee in front of her.

Luke walked over holding a pen in one hand and his ordering pad in another. He had a towel over his shoulder and a pencil behind his ear.

"Can I get you anything else?" Luke asked.

"I'm sorry, why do you have a pen in your hand and then a pencil in your ear?" Lorelai asked.

"So I can write orders." Luke answered as if it wasn't so obvious.

"Yeah, but why 2?"

"I loose one I have another." Luke said, beginning to write, but Lorelai stopped him again.

"Well why do you have a pen and a pencil? I mean, why can't you have to pencils and 2 pens or something?" Lorelai continued.

"Because I wanted a dose of lead and ink today." Luke said, beginning to get angry.

"Oh, okay." Lorelai sighed. There was a pause of silence.

"What can I get you guys?"

"Why do you have a towel-"

"Lorelai!" Luke yelled with his eyes closed.

"Two pieces of pie and more coffee." Lorelai said quickly.

"You got it." Luke said and walked away.

"Ha." Lorelai said in Luke's direction, then looks Rory.

"Why do you do this?" Rory asked and smiled.

"Do what?" Lorelai asked cluelessly.

"Annoy Luke like that. We all know he has a thing for you." Rory laughed.

"Are we back to this? Rory, Luke doesn't not have a thing for me, and I don't have a thing for him!" Lorelai whined.

"Fine! I still don't believe you." Rory said with a smile

"You don't have to. It's done no more discussion." Lorelai said back.

"Okay."

"Okay." Lorelai repeated.

Jess walks down the stairs and stops when he sees Rory. Rory spots him and smiled. Jess smiled back and walks over to her table.

"Hey." Jess leans down and kisses her.

"Hey." Rory smiled. "What made you come down?"

Jess takes a seat next to Rory, so he is now across from Lorelai. "I heard Luke yelling at Lorelai."

Lorelai just smiled and looked over at Luke, who was making coffee.

"Oh, so your decision had nothing with me being down here did it?" Rory smiled sweetly.

"Never crossed my mind." Jess joked.

"Mean!" Rory pouted and Jess just laughed.

"Hey, look." Rory pointed at her mom. Jess looked at Lorelai and looked over to see she was staring at Luke with a smile. He looks and Rory and smiles. Rory smiles back and coughs really loud to get her mothers attention.

"Huh?" Lorelai jumps.

Rory and Jess just start laughing.

"Ugh!" Lorelai growls and gets up and walks out the door.

Rory and Jess continue laughing.

"Mommy!" Rory whined as Lorelai opened Rory's curtains in the morning.

"Up! Up! Shopping waits for no man!" Lorelai screamed

"Or lunatic." Rory says as she gets up. "I'm taking a shower, and then we can go shopping."

"Hurry!" Lorelai yelled.

Lorelai sat on the ground where Buster's bed laid. Buster was sleeping.

"Buster?" Lorelai whispered.

Buster didn't move.

"Buster?" Lorelai tapped him a bit.

Buster moved a little, but didn't wake up.

"Buster!" Lorelai yelled and Buster jumped up and started barking.

"Stop! Stop Buster! Stop barking!" Lorelai tried to control him, but he wouldn't stop.

Lorelai rubs his tummy and he stops barking.

Rory walks out of the bathroom. "I am officially annoyed."

"Nice, honey. Ready?"

"What were you doing to my dog?" Rory asked, looking at Buster who was staring at her.

"Nothing, come on sweetheart." Lorelai smiled and led Rory to the Jeep.

They went to the shopping mall in Hartford. Shopping was Lorelai's best quality. She would go into every store and pick things out that she could always return if she didn't like it. She could spend hundreds of dollars in 2 hours, which was her record.

They finally arrived at the mall and went shopping. Rory picked a couple of books, and a few for Jess. She bought some make up and some CD's and Lorelai bought lots and lots of clothes and a couple of handbags. She even found a new rainbow coffeemaker with peace signs on it.

They were walking when Rory spotted another bookstore.

"Hey, this must be new." Rory pointed at the store.

"Ohh, yeah." Lorelai smiled. "Go ahead, I'm going to that freaky store Hot Topic. I just wanna see what Lucifer really looks like."

"Okay. I'll meet you here in 15 minutes."

"Great!" Lorelai waved and they went in their different directions.

Rory walked into the bookstore and into her favorite section, which were the novels. There was a guy standing there and saw Rory looking at the books.

"Hi." They guy said.

"Oh, hi." Rory smiled, innocently.

"I'm Trent." He said.

"Hi."

"Do you like to read?" Trent asked, moving over, so he was blocking her view and making her concentrate on him.

"Yes, I do." She said, just staring at him, waiting for him to move.

He was waiting for her to ask the same question.

"In case you wanted to know, I do too." He smiled.

"I didn't." Rory sighed.

"Well, I was thinking, since you like to read, and I like to read, we can go back to my place and read together."

"No thanks! Now would you mind moving?" Rory was starting to get annoyed.

"Ha, you're cute. So, do you have a boyfriend?" Trent wiggled his eyebrows.

"Yes, I do." Rory said loudly.

"Ah, that's why you rejected me." Trent smiled again.

"No, I think I would have rejected you, even if I was single." Rory snapped.

"Ouch. Well, I guess I better get going."

"Too bad, I felt we had a connection." Rory said sarcastically.

"Me too! Your choice." Trent said and walked away.

Rory sighed, and walked out of the store. She met her mother at their meeting place.

"Didn't find anything?" Lorelai asked.

"Nope, but I found a guy who hit on me." Rory sighed.

"Really? That's funny!" Lorelai laughed.

"He was annoying and he had really really bad pick up lines. Then he asked if I had a boyfriend, I said yes." Rory said.

"Which isn't a lie." Lorelai said.

"I know, but he acted like he didn't believe me." Rory said.

"Oh well." Lorelai spotted someone walk by and pushed Rory. "Oh my god! Let's go!"

"What? Why?" Rory asked.

"Go! Go!" Lorelai yelled, and they both ran to the car. As they got in, they both stopped for a breather.

"What was that all about?" Rory asked.

"I saw your grandmother!" Lorelai said.

"Really? Oh god! Thanks for saving me on that one." Rory smiled.

"No problem."

"Ok, Jess gets lunch in 20 minutes, drop me off at Stars Hollow high." Rory said.

"Okay."

When Rory got there, she sat on the bench like the day before and waited for Jess to come out. When he didn, he saw her sitting in the same spot and ran over to her.

"Hi!" He said and kissed her. But Rory held onto this kiss.

"Wow." Jess smiled.

"Yeah. Well, I missed you." Rory smiled.

"How was the shopping?" Jess asked.

Rory handed him a bag. "Here's a couple of books I picked up for you."

"Thanks." Jess said as he looked through the bag.

"Guess what. Some guy hit on me at the bookstore." Rory laughed.

"What?" Jess laughed too.

"Yeah, he had these bad pick up lines and asked me back to his place but I told him I had a boyfriend." Rory said.

"Wow."

"Yeah."

"Didn't feel like a fling?" Jess joked.

Rory laughed and playfully swatted him. "I thought I was in one." Rory joked back.

"Hey!" Jess pretended to be offended and kissed Rory, pushing her down so she was almost leaning on the bench handle.
