Thank you to the people who reviewed my story. All the reviews were really nice and thanks for pointing out the real colour of Rory's eyes!! Hee hee hee silly me. Anyway, I didn't really like the last ending, so this is the new last ending. Did that make any sense?!
Disclaimer: I don't own a single thing, except the plot.
Chapter 4:
Lane picked up her phone. "Hello?" She said.
Rory took a deep breath, not sure how, or where, to begin.
"It's me," Rory finally said.
"Oh, hey Rory!" Replied Lane. She glanced at the Hello Kitty clock in her room. "Oops, gotta make this quick. Mum will be home in 5 minutes and she'll probably want to set me up on a date of some sort. Last week she forced me to go out with this weird Korean guy. He took me to a karaoke bar. A Christian one, of course. Why did they even invent Christian karaoke bars? They only sing Christian songs! What's the point of that? Isn't church a form of a karaoke bar, then?"
Rory's heart sank. Lane was on one of her rampage's again – this time, a spirited one. And she didn't look like she'd stop any time soon. Rory was the phone who'd called; but now she had to listen to Lane whining. She had every right to whine, but Rory's news was much more important.
"Lane? Lane!" Rory yelled, interrupting Lane.
Lane stopped, mid-sentence.
"Okay, I totally get your animosity of Christian karaoke bars and everything, but can I tell you something first?" Rory asked. She felt like she had to say it now, or she'd explode.
Lane sighed. "Fine, say what you so desperately need to say,"
"Jess and I got back together," Rory blurted out. "I think," She added.
Lane was flabbergasted. Shocked. Stunned. Amazed.
"H-how? W-why? W-when?" Questions came firing at Rory, like cannonballs.
"We met at mum's wedding, I still love him and he still loves me, and it happened last night. There. All your questions have been answered in they order that they were asked. Now, can we get to the most important part? Is this legal?"
"What's legal? Getting back with an ex?" Lane said, bewildered.
"No!" Cried Rory exasperatedly. "My mum is married to his dad. Therefore, that would make us...what?" She finished.
Lane thought for a few seconds. "You are in a pickle," She finally said.
When Rory hung up, she felt like she was weighed down by a ton of bricks. She should have felt happy. In fact, she was happy. Her mum had settled down. Lane was still in a band, playing gigs every week without her mother's knowledge, and Paris was settled down, too. Rory knew eventually, one day she would want to get married to.
Would the happiness of her mother need to be sacrificed for her own happiness?
To Be Continued....
Author's Note: Okay, I know I said this was the last chapter. But I couldn't help myself!! I really need your help now. Could it work between Jess and Rory? Because if Lorelai and Luke were married, what would that make them? Cousins, I think. Right? I'm open to any suggestions, reviews, criticism or comments – so keep them coming!!! Thanks.
