A/N: Ok! Lorelai and Rory confrontation time! Thanks to all who reviewed! Ok, here we go.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---

Lorelai got out of her jeep and walked quickly to the front door. She pounded loudly on the door three times. A few seconds later, a frightened looking Lane opened the door. "Oh! Lorelai! Jeez, you scared me for a second." She opened the door wider to let Lorelai in.

Lorelai scanned the living room but did not find Rory anywhere. "Where's Rory?" she asked.

"Uh, she's in the bathroom."

Suddenly they heard a toilet flushing and running water from the sink. A few seconds later Rory opened the door. She gasped. "Mom, what are you doing here?"

Lorelai stomped up to Rory and grabbed her arm. "I'm taking you home."

Rory pulled away from Lorelai's grip. "I told you I'm not leaving until Lane goes to work."

"Well, I told you I'm taking you home, so you're going home," Lorelai said angrily.

Rory backed away from Lorelai. "I don't want to go home right now, I'll go later. We'll have dinner like I said," She responded just as angry.

"Well, then we're having dinner now." She put her arm around Rory's shoulders. "Where's your stuff?"

Rory pushed Lorelai's arm off. "It's only three-thirty; we'd be having lunch instead of dinner."

"Well, we can call it lunner, now let's go," Lorelai said getting impatient.

"Why are you pushing this?"

Lorelai sighed. "I need to talk to you."

"I already told you I don't want to talk," Rory said crossing her arms over her chest.

"Fine then, I'm going to talk and you're going to listen, so go to the car."

"I'm not going anywhere."

"Damn it Rory, why do you have to be so stubborn?" Lorelai asked stomping her foot.

"Because you taught me."

"Stop that. Stop acting like a child. I'm talking you home right now."

"I don't have to listen to you."

"Excuse me? I am your mother, and as such you are going to listen to me. I don't care if you're a freaking adult, as long as you are alive, you'll still be my kid, and that means that you have follow my rules and orders. Now, say goodbye to Lane," Lorelai grabbed Rory's arm tightly.

"Ow." Rory scowled. "Bye Lane, I'll see you soon."

"Later. You'll see her later. It's going to be awhile before I'm through."

"Uh, Bye Rory, Lorelai," Lane said.

Lorelai pulled Rory and her bag outside and to the jeep.

---------------------------------------

Rory opened the front door and walked as fast as she could to her room.

"Where do you think you're going?" Lorelai asked walking just as quickly behind her.

"Away from you. I don't want to hear you judging me again." Lorelai grabbed Rory's arm before she could get to her room. "Ow, stop doing that."

"Hey," Lorelai said lightly. "I'm not going to judge you. I just want to help you."

"I don't need your help," Rory said angrily.

Lorelai closed her eyes. "Rory, please calm down. I want to talk rationally with you." She let go of Rory's arm and opened her eyes. "Now can we please talk?"

Rory took a deep breath and started walking toward the couch with Lorelai at her heels.

---------------------------------------

"Wow," Lorelai said as Rory told the whole story to her.

"Yeah. I can't believe you tricked me into telling you," Rory said with a hint of a smile.

"Well, sweetie, it's a gift," Lorelai said smiling.

Rory took a deep breath. "So what were you talking about last night about Kirk and the town square?"

"Oh yeah, that. Kirk ran around town naked."

"Ew!" Rory said disgusted.

"Yeah, and I had to see his butt."

"Double ew!"

"Totally."

"So, explain to me why he was doing this."

"Well, apparently Kirk has night terrors."

"And those are..."

"It's like when you're half asleep and half awake and you're all crazy and you think everything's a threat to you, and for Kirk, he usually ends up naked."

"Huh. What about Lulu?" Rory asked.

"Well, she understands and now they have other ways of occupying their time," Lorelai said suggestively.

"Ugh, that's gross, I don't want to hear about that," Rory said while covering her ears.

Lorelai pulled her hands down. "Wait, there's more."

"Ooh, it's like a game show. Is this as interesting as Naked Kirk, or is it less disturbing?"

Lorelai sighed. "Well, I guess we'll start with the fact that someone showed up uninvited."

"Who?"

"Jason."

"No!"

"Yes."

"What happened?" Rory asked.

"He wanted to get back together. Well, he assumed we were never apart. He's turned into Crazy-Stalker Man."

"Well, naturally."

"Yeah, oh, and get this, Emily and Richard didn't stay the night."

"Oh, why not?"

"Apparently they hate being around each other."

"Oh, poor Grandma and Grandpa."

"Hey, it's their faults for getting into this mess."

"Did they tell you why the split up?"

"No, that made me so mad. I got yelled at and didn't get any new juicy information."

"I hope they work it out," Rory said thoughtfully.

"Yeah, me too." Rory looked at Lorelai skeptically. "What? They are my parents, I do care that my parents stay together."

"Sure."

"I do!"

"Ok, I believe you."

"No you don't."

"I thought I just said I did."

Lorelai sighed. "Ok, new topic of last night."

"Ok."

"Luke."

"What about Luke?"

"I think Luke and I are...something."

"Like you weren't before?"

"Ok, well, I went off somewhere, and Luke talked to Jason."

"No!"

"Yes."

"Wow."

"I know. So, anyway, Jason runs off someplace and Luke confronts me and he saying that he must have been an idiot for courting me-"

"Courting you?"

"Just go with it." Rory shrugged. "So, I asked him why he thought this, and he went on about a boyfriend. Hello, that one's totally gone."

"What happened then?"

Lorelai sighed. "We went out onto the porch and he was talking about how Jason was saying that he and I were right."

"You and Jason or you and Luke?"

"Me and Jason."

"Ok, continue."

"Right, so he was saying how he thought there was a moment after Liz's wedding, and I told him there was."

"Ooh, intrigue. And after that?"

"He leaned in..."

"No!"

"But I pulled back..."

"Mom!"

"I asked him what he was doing.."

"And?"

"He said, 'will you just stand still?'..."

"Aw."

"Then he kissed me," Lorelai said giddily.

"Someone seems happy. It must have been good," Rory said with a smile.

"It was." Lorelai grinned widely.

"What happened after that?"

"We stopped."

"Well nice to know," Rory said sarcastically. "But after the kiss began and ended, what happened?"

"I leaned in..."

"You're kidding!"

"But he pulled back..."

"Hmm, I think I see a pattern forming."

"He asked me what I was doing..."

"This is getting ridiculous."

"I said, "will you just stand still?'..."

"Of course," Rory said pretending to be bored.

"And then I kissed him."

"Wow! Did not see that one coming."

"Shut up!" Lorelai said excitedly.

"So, did something different happen after or did you guys do the same thing the entire night?"

"Well, after we ended the kiss, he grabbed my waist and leaned in for another one..."

"And you pulled back, am I right?"

"No, Naked Kirk came running downstairs."

"Oh, that must have sucked."

"Yeah, but I found out the Luke's butt is way cuter than Kirk's butt," Lorelai said thoughtfully.

"Ok, too much information."

Lorelai grinned. Suddenly she grabbed Rory's wrist and looked at her watch. "Crap I have to get ready!"

"What?" Rory asked. Lorelai stood up and started climbing the stairs. "Oh yeah, you have that date with Luke. Want some help?" She called.

"I'm good now, but I'll probably need you in a few minutes," Lorelai yelled.

"Is he picking you up or are you meeting him there?"

"He's picking me up."

"Aw, how cute." "Don't make me come down there," Lorelai threatened. "Shoot!"

"I'm coming," Rory said as she stood up and ran up the stairs.
