Summary: The mistake Lorelai made 16 years ago was being echoed in her daughter.

To my first reviewer..Danger1Zone1988.. So sorry that you will soon be removing me from your favorites list, I have to agree that Dean sucks but what's so bad about Jess. I hope you will give my story a chance, cause it's not the typical Lit. that you find spattered all over this place. And please review again. Too bad I'm loosing out on that cookie.

So you're reading my story, All you need to know This part is set, as you will find out when you read the first 2 sentences, is set 6 months after the first installment, its April and in case you can't add, Rory is seven months pregnant. See I told you I skipped very big portions of time. Ducks flying cabbage So yeah on with the story..

Chapter 2- Enter; A Fresh Face

Rory slinked out of her room, and started tip toeing down the hallway. It was the middle of the night, and Rory couldn't sleep. She still wasn't used to sleeping in that room and in that bed after 6 months of doing just that. It was Friday or Saturday really, she slipped into her mom's room. "Mom? Are you awake?" Rory asked in a whisper.

"Nope." Lorelai told her, smile across her face.

"Good, me either." Rory smiled, sitting down on Lorelai's bed. "What's going on?" Rory asked when she saw the far off look in her mother's eyes.

"Oh nothing. I was just thinking..." Her voice trailed off.

"Just thinking?"

"How much I miss Lu- everything in Stars Hollow."

"Uh huh. You were about to say Luke. Weren't you?"

Lorelai glared at her, it wavered as she admitted "Yes."

"I know, I miss him too." Rory looked down at her stomach, "Hey mom."

"Yeah honey."

"I'm sorry."

"For?"

"This." She motioned to her belly.

"You don't need to be sorry."

"Well I am."

"I know. Come on try to get some sleep." They laid down in the massive bed and drifted to sleep.

Rory went to Chilton on Monday, as she did every school day. She walked in and no one gave her a second look. She had started to show when she was 5 months along. Everyone knew by this time and the gossip of it had settled.

"Hey Rory." Paris joined her as she walked down the hall to Honors Trig.

"Hey Paris."

"So how's everything?"

"Everything's good."

"That's good."

"You need something Paris?"

"No."

"Okay." They walked into their math class and took their seats.

"Is it a boy or a girl?" Paris suddenly asked.

"What?"

"The baby is it a boy or a girl? I know you found out last week and I wanna know."

"Why?"

"Cause I wanna know."

"Okay, but you have to promise not to tell anyone okay."

"Okay." Rory leaned over and whispered something to Paris. A smile spread across Paris' face.

"Really?"

"Yeah. I already have a name."

"Really?"

"Yeah." Rory smiled.

Six hours later Rory sat by the parking lot waiting for her ride. She saw an abandoned bus schedule under the bench she was sitting on. She picked it up and walked to the bus stop. The bus pulled up and she got on, walking to the back she sat down. She looked at the book the person next to her was reading.

"Any good?" She asked trying to make a connection.

"Yeah. I guess, but I'm not to big a fan of Ayn Rand. Political nut if you ask me."

"Yeah, maybe, but no one can write a forty page monologue like she can."

"True."

"Ever read The Fountainhead?"

"No, I tried, couldn't stick with it."

"Why. The Fountainhead is a classic."

"Yeah, but I couldn't keep my eyes open."

"Aw you have to read it."

"Yeah."

"So who's your favorite author?"

"I'd have to say Hemingway."

"No."

"Yep."

"Ernest Hemmingway, you're kidding, right please tell me you're not serious."

"As a heart attack. Why what's so wrong about Hemingway?"

"Ugh Never mind."

"Yeah you know there's no argument against him. So there I win." Rory laughed, then realized she didn't know this boy's name.

"I'm Rory, by the way."

"Jess."

"So where are you headed?" She asked.

"Stars Hollow. Little bum fuck no where town. Extremely boring from what I remember. And full of crazies."

"Hey now, it's not that bad."

"Your stop?"

"Yeah."

"Well if most of the people are like you maybe it'll be some what tolerable."

"Yeah." Rory got quiet and looked nervous as they got closer to Stars Hollow. When the bus stopped Jess stood up he expected Rory to follow.

"Something wrong?"

"Oh, uh no.. Just deciding"

"Deciding what?"

"If I should get off this bus."

"Made your choice?" He asked after a moment.

"Yeah." She didn't stand. Jess nodded and smiled at her before walking off the bus. Rory sunk into her seat as the bus traveled back to Hartford. "I'm home." She said as she walked into the Gilmore Manor.

I promise not to be one of those pathetic authors who beg for reviews, cause I'm better then that I don't need other people's assurance.. who am I kidding, I'm as pathetic as they come, please review.
