Chapter 1

Rory laid on her bed in Stars Hollow, staring up at the ceiling, her feel dangled off as she bit a piece of red vine. There was a knock on her door, "Come in."

"Hey kid," Lorelai said gently as she stood in the doorway.

"Hey Mom, your home early."

"Yeah well what with Lane gone doing the whole, 'Wandering Rock Star take New England' thing I figured you could use some extra buddy time. So I was thinking that we could go load up on junk food, and watch, Riding the Bus with My Sister, starring Rose O'Donnell as a very convincing mentally disabled woman, and still have time to hit the town meeting. A day of Stars Hollow fun for the whole family, what do you say?"

"Can I pick the pizza toppings?" Rory sat up enthusiastically, "Oooh can I try and pick the most discussing combination and see if I can gross you out?"

"Barring anything green or healthy destroying the integrity of pizza?"

"Agreed, as long as I can add assorted junk food that one does not find at most pizza establishments."

"Then do your best because nobody can breach the lead lined stomach of Lorelai Gilmore!"

A few minutes latter Lorelai and Rory sat in the living room with a content look of food comma. Rory spoke with out looking away, "I am impressed."

"Why, because I was able to get through the layer of Marshmallow Fluff or the Chiclet sprinkles?"

"I was going to say it was due to the ability to get through the decaf chocolate covered coffee beans."

"I still can't believe you found them. I say it goes against all that the chocolate covered coffee beans stand for. I should have had a decaf disclaimer tied in with the health food clause."

Just then there was a nock on the door. Rory got up happily and opened the door, "Hey Luke! Here to escort us to the Town Meeting?

"Yeah I promised your mother I would go again," Luke looked down at the pizza on the floor, "is that…"

"Pepperoni and sour gummy worm pizza?"

"I was going to point out the Dorritos on there."

Lorelai stood and went to the door. Grabbing her purse as she went, "Yeah they are all there, now lets go, we don't want to miss the fun!"

"Oh joy," Luke said sarcastically as the three of them left the house.

Authors Note: Reasons that Luke and Lorelai are not engaged, big one: The moment that prompted it didn't happen because Rory never decided to drop out of Yale. So in my opinion take the good with the bad. I am not a fan of Logan so he will not be here. It is a wonderful world where Logan didn't screw over Rory's life by just being there.
