A/N: okay, I lied on my other story. I have some free time now, mostly cause I can't sleep so you guys get like an update lol. Um…yea, I guess on with the show.

(Disclaimer: Amy owns all I own nothing happy?)

Go-between

"Bunny wake up!" Lorelai's chipper voice sounded. Rory groaned, pulling her comforter over her head and snuggling into her pillow. The next thing she knew, Lorelai was pulling off her comforter. "Rise and shine sweets! It's a gorgeous morning."

"Die" Rory muttered. She wasn't awake, wasn't caffeinated, and Lorelai was crazy enough to annoy her. She sighed.

"Now that's no way to talk to mommy. Rise! Rise!" Rory, still holding her pillow in a death grip, shook her leg out at her. "What are you doing?"

"I'm trying to kick you but I'm too tired."

Lorelai, rolling her eyes, grabbed Rory and pulled her to a standing position, ignoring the teen's protests. She wasn't starting school until next week so waking up early was not a probable thing at all. "Come on Sunshine." Rory grudgingly stood up on her own, now fully awake, and glared at her mother.

"I hate you" she muttered.

"You know" Lorelei began. "I was going to get you some coffee at Luke's but…"

Rory interrupted. "Mommy, I love you. You're my favorite mommy in the world." Lorelei smiled to herself.

"Damn straight I am. Now get changed." She walked out of the room, shutting the door behind her. Rory collapsed onto her bed for another few minutes of sleep.

The bell over the door sounded causing Luke to look up. He smiled at them as they approached. "Hey" he said to Lorelei. The two adults kissed and Rory had to smile. No matter how many times they did that, there was always a big "FINALLY" in her head.

"Hey" Lorelei responded as they pulled apart. "Sit anywhere?"

He nodded. "Yeah."

Lorelei walked over to the nearest table and leaned forward slightly. "Uh…guy I don't know. Do you mind moving?"

Rory rolled her eyes as Luke muttered something about walking right into that. She walked over to her mother and dragged her away from the guy over to an empty table by the window. "Luke's gonna kill you one of these days" she informed her mother.

"Aw, why?"

Not wasting her breath, Rory turned to look at the stairs leading upstairs expectantly. Last night had been fun up until the call from Dean just Jess, Rory, and Lilly. She wanted to see them again but she didn't exactly want to push her luck.

"What ya lookin' at?" her mother pulled her back to reality. Rory shook her head.

"Uh, I was just thinking."

"About Dean?"

"About Dean."

"Lilly, I'm starving. Do you mind get changed faster?" Jess half yelled to his sister. She was taking her sweet time that morning to get ready. All Jess wanted was to sate his growing hunger that grew worse as he remembered that the cone of ice cream he'd had yesterday was all he'd had. He'd offered to go downstairs and get some food but of course Lilly had insisted he wait.

"Okay, okay" the ten year old emerged from the room wearing a pair of shorts and a tee-shirt. "I'm out. I was just wondering how long it would take for you to come in after me."

"What! I've been starving here and it's all just part of some twisted test." Obviously Jess was a bit cranky when he was hungry.

She shrugged and led the way downstairs. They rounded the curtain. Lilly, instantly spotting Rory, ran over and Jess followed. "Rory!" Lilly exclaimed giving her new friend a hug.

"Hey Lilly, what's up?"

"Nothing much but I'm going with Jess to enroll in school, both of us."

"Sounds like fun."

At this point, Jess walked up behind Lilly, resting his hands on her shoulders. "Hey." He had his patented Jess smirk on his face.

"Hey."

Lorelei cleared her throat not so subtly. Rory's face reddened slightly as she said "Mom, this is Lilly and her older brother, Jess. They're Luke's family."

"Hi, I saw you yesterday" she reminded as though either of them could forget. "Welcome to Starshollow."

"Thanks" responded Jess.

Lilly smiled at her. "I love Hello Kitty too."

Lorelei turned to her daughter. "See, she liked it." Rory rolled her eyes but kept her mouth shut. Her mom was so immature sometimes, most times, whatever came first.

A/N: so as it turns out, I'm too tired to continue. I wanted to go further with this chapter but decided to make it a "bridge" chapter (the go-between.) Yeah, um…I'll update before Tuesday I hope. Sorry to keep up hanging but the next chapter will have their first trip to the bridge (within the next two chapters) and Lily and Jess's enrollment. Oh and Jess is going to meet Paris soon. Lol Leave a review so I know if anyone is still reading and feel free to give me some constructive criticism. Hasta…

FACT: Alexis Bledel is Spanish. She speaks it fluently and has tried to get roles as a Spaniard but hasn't because "she looks too white." (somewhere from south America I think)

FACT: Milo's coming back to the show in a few episodes. YAY! (I forgot how many exactly. Apparently, he's coming back as a "New Jess." More mature or something.)

FACT: Amy (Pallidino) is the best. She's had to beg Milo to come back to the show. She wanted his character back that much. (See? Who doesn't love Jess?)

Me: I miss cat Kirk…(I know, I know that was random)
