ProFfeSseR and JavaJunkiE006: Thanks. Step-sister; got it, fixed it.

Bloomin Daisy: Flockey, heh. I'm not sure. I figured I'd put Piper in as center mid, because they do the most running and I want her to be extremely athletic and in-shape. I usually play as a back or sweeper (I love defense) and have played mid occasionally. It's really difficult.

oth2007: My obsession is Gilmore Girls, but I do love Friends. It's always good to be obsessed about something (hopefully not someone. hm).

Fraiser: Thank you so much. Really, I love the adoration. It inspires me … and actually makes me kinda giddy … hm. And thank you so much for putting me on your favorite stories list. I read the other story on there and it's amazing. Good pick.

GilmoreGirlNumber27: Thanks a lot. I was actually worried that my descriptions were too much. I'm really glad they're not, writing them makes me happy.

Manic Penguin: Seriously, you have the best pen name I've heard of. I'm kinda in love with it. Short (or aphoristic, as I have learned in an extremely bizarre incident involving an eight year old, a duck, and two scrambled eggs) and extremely sweet review, thanks.

A/N: Chapter eleven. Seriously, sorry guys. Some hospital testing stuff. I'll be writing more now that I'm back. Promise.

"Piper!"

"I'm here, I'm here. Geez, mom. You'd think I'd gone missing."

"Okay, well, it's seven and if you wanna get to your bus on time I suggest you take the coffee and go." Lorelai held out a travel mug. Piper gladly took it from her mom, gave her a peck on the cheek, and left in a hurry.

"Sookie!" Piper rushed into the Dragonfly Inn's kitchen. She was wearing a white tank, a black sports bra, a pair of black, cotton work-out shorts with a white, elastic waist band around the top, and a pair of running sneakers. She carried her stick bag, a blue nylon bag that held her shin guards and cleats, and a water bottle.

"Sookie! It's my first day of pre-season. I can't be late."

"Okay, okay, kitten. Here's your lunch. Home-made …" But Sookie was cut off by the tight hug Piper gave her. Piper kissed Sookie quickly on the cheek and left in a hurry to catch her bus.

Lorelai came into the Dragonfly's kitchen a while later only to have a spoon shoved into her mouth. She almost choked in shock. But then Lorelai realized that whatever the spoon held was what she would of guessed heaven tasted like.

"Oh, wow."

"Is it really good?" Sookie looked at her friend questioningly.

"It really is. This is amazing."

"Amazing!" All of a sudden Sookie was giggling and jumping up and down. And soon Lorelai was doing the same.

"What was that?" Lorelai finally asked; face flushed and out of breath.

"This," Sookie told her while pointing to her bowl, "is the icing that's going on your wedding cake. I already asked Luke to taste it this morning and he loved it!"

"This is the icing that's going on my wedding cake?"

"Yes!" And that's when the screaming, the giggling, and the jumping resumed. When they were finished Sookie showed Lorelai her plans for the meal, her idea for the cake, and the figurine of Lorelai and Luke that she had found that she swore had Luke's butt.

"Oh wow. It is his butt. Weird."

"I told you."

"Oh no. What time is it?"

"Lorelai, you should really wear a watch. You need to be on time for meetings and …"

"Sook?"

"Oh, right." Sookie looked at her watch and replied, "It's eleven."

"I have to go. I want to bring Piper lunch on her first day."

"Okay. Bye sweets."

Lorelai decided since food from Luke's would be cold by the time she got to Hartford she'd take Piper out. She arrived at Chilton and walked down to the fields. Lorelai knew she was early since the girls were doing sprints. She picked Piper out easily from her long, dark hair and was immediately impressed with her speed.

After they were done they all huddled around the coach and then dispersed. Piper saw Lorelai immediately and went straight towards her.

"Hey! I've got icing!" Lorelai shouted and all the other girls either looked confused or amused by her outburst.

"Awesome! What flavor?"

"I really don't know. It was kinda vanilla/butterscotchy. A true Sookie creation."

"That's great mom. It sounds really good, but then again my near-starved state may be affecting my ability to judge anything food related."

"I think I made myself hungry." Lorelai pouted while holding her stomach with both hands. "We better get something to eat." They started walking towards Lorelai's jeep side-by-side.

"I agree. I think I'm getting hunger pains."

"Are you sure those aren't cramps."

"Okay, then I think I'm getting hunger cramps."

"No, you should be a professional runner!"

"Cool! Oh yeah, except I hate running."

"What? But you were … you just … with the sprinting … and the …"

"I run so I can play the sport. It helps my endurance."

"But why would you run unless you love it. I mean, come on. The only people who run love it. Not just like, Piper, love with an insane passion. Sprinters and cross country runners love to run. I mean, it's there life. That's why they do every day."

"Mom."

"And people running along the street in bright colored jogging suits, they love to run. They've taken time out of their lives to put on their jogging suit of choice and go running. Not to mention the hours they have taken to find their preferred jogging suit in a jogging suit store. And all to …"

"Okay, okay. Please. Food. Stomach. Hurts. Ow." Piper clutched her stomach with both hands and pretended to keel over.

"Fine, we're here."

"Hey, what are we gonna do with the lunch Sookie gave to me? It looks really good."

"Is that a serious question?"

"Right, okay. Snack for the drive on the way back to the school then."

"Perfect." Both girls walked into the all you can eat Chinese Buffet Lorelai had found.

A/N: Tada. Finally. I know. Long wait. Choppy sentences. Makes me wanna cry too.
