Part 6 'Crazy Baby'
"So what happens now?" Lorelai had been on the phone to Rory for a long time now, just talking, like they used to.
"I don't know, you tell me, you're the one who rang" Rory hadn't really had time to think about where this conversation was going and when it was going to end for that matter.
"Well why me, I don't know" Lorelai really had no idea, she only rang because she missed having Rory to talk to, she missed her family.
"We could, meet up, you know just for a start, I don't know coffee at Luke's" Rory felt stupid suggesting such a thing but she knew it was what they were both thinking
"No, not at Luke's, some place else, the town would have a field day if they knew you were even speaking to me let alone in Luke's, I think it may even cause a few heart attacks and we wouldn't want that"
"No we wouldn't, so where then, you could come here"
"No, too much driving, ooo how about Boston, I really wanna got there and get these things for the inn but I couldn't be bothered so now I have a good enough reason too"
"Yeah sure"
Rory and Lorelai talked late into the night, discussing everything and anything that they could think of because after all they had a lot of time to make up for.
The days after that passed slowly for both Lorelai and Rory, they had arranged to meet up in a mutual place, they picked Boston, Rory had been wanting this day for so long and Lorelai had just realised that she too had found what she had been looking for.
Time goes so slowly
When you're waiting for someone you really want to call you
Believe and don't let it take you away
Your time will come pretty baby.
They met in a small coffee shop just outside the city centre.
(This coffee sucks! My Mom is not going to be happy, she hates suckish coffee, its nothing like Luke's' we should of gotten coffee to go from Luke's)
Just then Lorelai walked in holding to coffee cups to go, from…Luke's
(Oh, after all these years it's nice to think me and Mom are still on the same page)
Lorelai sat down at the table, opposite Rory.
"Hey" Lorelai looked comfortable and not embarrassed like she thought she would, Lorelai had no idea about who Rory was now, yes they had talked on the phone but Rory looked different, she had a baby, one that she hadn't left, she had a whole new family and Lorelai, was no longer part of it.
"Hi" Rory said shyly
"So this is it" Lorelai smiled broadly at Rory and for once in a very very long time, Lorelai looked totally happy.
Lorelai knew that the time had come, she had not planned for this and it was probably completely crazy, after all it had been nearly 5 years but something drew her there, it wasn't like an unknown force it was more like curiosity other than anything else, something that cant be explained, a kind of longing and wondering about things. Like when you leave somewhere or move house, you always have that little sparky feeling everytime something reminds you of it, then you start to think about it, you know, what happened to it and how its doing now, that's what Lorelai felt and she needed to find out an awful lot more than she wanted to.
She grabbed hold of Rory's arm and dragged her out of her seat, pulling her out of the shop and along the street to her car, Rory tried to talk or shout but Lorelai couldn't hear her and Rory was scared, she thought her Mom had gone all crazy. Lorelai drove and Rory sat silently not knowing what to say to the determined look she was sure to get from Lorelai, determined to do something but Rory had no idea what.
(Ok, so its not a s if I ever wanted to go here, never even when I was younger I didn't want to and it was like impossible for me not to, but today I just snapped, I saw Rory and it reminded me of why I was there in the first place, not because of Rory like I'd always said, not because of Luke, not even because of me but because of them, they had been the source of the problem, they caused it and I know that they know it. I'd never really thought to blame them before, even though subconsciously all of my problems lead there, whenever I thought of Rory in these past four years I always thought about how She'd hurt me or how she'd walked away but in the end I know it was them, they led her there telling her what she wanted to hear, just because they weren't afraid like I was to see her fail, no it was fine by them. All they wanted was their do over daughter but I guess they didn't even get that. So, all of that work, tearing me and Rory apart and look at what they got, nothing, just like me. Because of them we were all left alone, isolated from our own family because they wanted something that didn't belong to them and never ever would. They make me so angry I hated them and I knew going to them was a bad idea but I couldn't solve the problem on my own.)
Lorelai drove quietly in the darkness and eventually arrived at the place she'd dreaded so much. It was still quite light out and the gates were locked as normal, but instead of seeing the usual Emily and Richard standing by the garden she saw a little baby girl, just over a year old she was running throughout the small patch of grass that could be seen from the front of the house. The little girl was beautiful, she looked just like Rory had when she had been born, bright blue eyes and dark hair. A young couple walked out the young woman holding a baby boy, a few weeks old. Lorelai was suddenly scared and her mind began to race, they weren't there any more where had they gone, were they dead or had they just left because they had no reason to stay. Lorelai heard crying and turned to see Rory sobbing.
Rory mumbled quietly "That's my little girl… she's not meant to be here, who are these people she's with"
Lorelai looked at Rory and all of a sudden Lorelai knew exactly what was going on and she didn't like it, she didn't like it at all…..
