Thank yous
Aimie: Thanks for the review, and the suggestion.
Smile1: Thanks for the support, and the review. Hope my story continues to be bearable.
Controversy-Queen: No suggestions will be rejected, though not all will be used, though, I'm sure that they might be twisted and reshaped until it fits. Thanks for the review. And keep the suggestions coming.
Mugglewulf: thanks. I want a new puppy and my mom wont let me have one…even though I'm eighteen, I still live home…So, I put my hope into my story. Glad you liked that.
AN: Don't think it's a joke when I mention world domination. Two of my fellow concession workers and I are plotting as we speak. I get Baghdad…That way I can say who's your baghdaddy? Just something funny to think about, I saw it someone's shirt the theatre once. Anyways, I thought this would be a funny subject to do for a filler chapter while I prepare the ultimate chapter that is has some form of conflict. I'm thinking a new girlfriend, you tell me what you think. Eliza is thirteen in this chapter. I also thought it would be a good way to put Lorelai in, and show how her relationship has changed with Jess. Anyways, enjoy!
Chapter 6.5
"No. I want Antarctica." Lorelai Gilmore argued with her thirteen year old daughter.
"That's not fair." Eliza quipped. "I called it first."
"Did not." Lorelai countered.
"Did too." Eliza returned
"No way." Lorelai spoke quickly.
"Yes way." Eliza laughed.
"What are we, two?" Jess asked, shaking his head amusement, "besides, what the hell are you gonna do with Antarctica, anyways?"
"Vast and secret military bases."
"Why would you need Antarctica for that, you have Russia." Jess argued.
"And Canada."
"She has Canada because no one else wanted it." Jess looked at his daughter.
"No, I think it was Mexico no body wanted." Eliza contradicted.
"Nasty piece of land." Lorelai teased.
"What are you three doing anyways?" Luke wondered over to the three, coffee pot in hand. He proceeded to pour her coffee, but stopped once she answered.
"Taking over the world." Lorelai answered innocently, her voice nonchalant.
"I should have known." He rolled his eyes walking slowly away from the three plotters.
"Hey, you marked Antarctica for yourself." Lorelai's eyes had followed the coffee pot, leaving just enough time for Eliza to mark a giant 'E' over the continent. Lorelai gave her grand daughter a wide "O" face, faux shock evident on her still young looking face.
"So? I'm younger. I still get what I want." Eliza grasped the marker in her hand, sure that Lorelai wouldn't attempt to take it from her. The older woman pouted and from beside her, Jess smirked.
It was an odd family that the Danes and the Mariano's made. The crazy young grandmother, the cynical young father, a smarter than her own good grand daughter, the barely there son of the grandmother, and the sometimes grumpy Uncle. But it was a family that they made. The Mariano's made it a point to spend at least two weekends in Stars Hollow, away form the city, and away from school work, and away from the job Jess had worked at for nearly ten seven years.
Even in crazy moments where they sat in the diner, pretending to plot world domination while helping Eliza learn all the major continents and countries, it was evident that the family meant something to all of them, despite the Danes having a whole entire family outside this close knit group.
"When's Will getting back from Hartford?" Eliza asked after moments of silence. Lorelai shrugged.
"He's spending the night with Rory, so, I don't know. She tends to keep him there as long as possible." The statement didn't go past Jess and Eliza who looked at each other for a moment. Eliza broke the gaze, smiling gleefully.
"Oh yah, I get Tonga." She spoke up.
"Ugh!! I wanted the place with the funny name…ooh, I call New Zealand." She raised her hand.
"Already called it." Jess spoke up pointing to the J that was marked over the islands.
"You two are unfair." Lorelai pouted once more, a smile playing on her face.
AN2: I know it's short, but it wasn't meant to be long, it's sort of just here to update you on what's going on. I thought it would be something funny. It might be a week and a half before I can get the actual chapter 7 out, and I'm relying highly on reviewers to help me out. I'm seriously thinking of a little scuttle I can put our favorite father daughter team through, and I'm thinking about involving Jess with a girl, the forester boys staying with Jess for a week, and a visit from Lily. Tell me what you think. I also can't put out of my mind, Lorelai answering the door when his girlfriend stops by to meet Lorelai. Hehe. Evil. Please Review.
