"Luke, I'm going out." I holler as I thump down the stairs.
"Fine, but be back in time for closing." My Uncle Luke hollers back as I sweep past him and out the front door.
Stopping a few feet from the diner's door, I slowly gaze around this hokey town that the locals call Stars Hollow. It's like something out of a sixty's sitcom. Not my kind of town at all.
The town locals are very proud of their tiny town. Not that I would know or care.
Of course I've been here about a year now, but I will never call myself a town local.
That isn't me and never will be.
"I'm a lone wolf, someone you wouldn't want to encounter after dark. Someone who's not good in school or at making friends.
It's not that I couldn't be good at school; it's just that I don't want to be good at schoolwork.
My Uncle Luke probably thinks that I have no social skills and that I'm a troublemaker with a bad attitude.
In fact pretty much everyone in this hick town thinks that I'm a troublemaker with a bad attitude and no good inside of me.
That is, everyone but a certain Lorelai Leigh Gilmore.
Everyone calls her Rory. That's her nickname. And I can't explain it, but Rory suits her a lot better than Lorelai ever will.
Maybe it's because when I think of the name Lorelai, I always associate it with Rory's annoyingly peppy mother, who hates my guts.
She thinks the same as everyone else in this town. That I'm a bad egg with no heart and that I'll end up hurting her daughter.
But I won't hurt Rory, no one will, not if I have anything to say about it.
But of course I really don't have any say in the matter, not while Rory's annoyingly tall, bag boy, boyfriend stands in my way.
He's like some bad brick wall, that's keeping me from Rory.
Although, I don't think that's she'll be with him for very long.
It's seemed lately that he's been getting a little too possessive and bossy for Rory's taste.
Who knows, though? She's probably way to loyal to dump him over that.
Sighing, I wake up from my daydream and head off for my favorite spot in Stars Hollow.
Hard to believe, huh? I actually have a favorite spot in Stars Hollow.
But it's not just any spot, it's what I like to privately think of as, Rory's and my spot.
It's where we had our first unofficial date. Maybe the only date that I'll ever have with her.
I took her there for a picnic after I outbid Dean in the basket sale, that the town puts on every year.
Man he was furious. It's one of my favorite memories so far.
Well, that one and the one, when I first saw Rory.
Anyway, my favorite spot in Stars Hollow would be the bridge, which is where I'm headed now.
It's where I go to be alone, or to think, or to just relax and read a book.
I think that that's one of the main reasons that Rory seems to be attracted to me. Because I read a whole lot, and so does she.
I'm almost to the bridge now. And then, suddenly, I'm there and my foot is taking the first step onto the old wooden bridge.
I love the way my footsteps have that hollow ring as I walk across it to get to my usual reading spot. Smack in the middle of the bridge with my feet hanging over. That's where I sit.
But this afternoon, my spot is taken. And the person in my spot is reading a book and dangling her legs over the edge.
There's only one person that it could be and her name is Rory Gilmore. The one person in Stars Hollow who actually understands me.
