Ok, so its been a few days since I last posted, sorry, I'd like to thank everyone for the great reviews again and thank you for the comments, I'm trying to take them all into account, please keep reviewing. This chapter is weird, there's not much importance to it, but I needed to do this chapter so I could round of one story line and the next chapter will be a new story line (inc. the fluff I promised!). I've been thinking of where I'd like this story to end (Yeah I know) it won't be yet but if anybody has any ideas of where they would like it to end, please let me know! And well, enjoy…..

Disclaimer: I do not own Gilmore Girls, Princeton, the Plaza or any of the other things mentioned in my stories. So please don't sue me.

Part 17 'New Beginnings'

"Full custody is granted to Miss Gilmore'

Those words rang in Rory's ears for days after the court case. She had finally gotten Libby back, 3 weeks early. As soon as Libby was admitted to hospital, even though it was proven that the bakers had nothing to do with it, the courts re considered Rory's appeal and, after she told them about her income and housing situation, they granted her full custody.

Libby had been in hospital for a week before the case and 2 weeks after it. During that time, Lorelai had fit a get Rory healthy timetable in between work and Luke and Skye. She made sure Rory ate a full meal, 3 times a day, she made Rory drink milk and fresh orange juice to get the vitamin c back into her body. She even made sure that Rory sat out on the back yard for a few minutes each day, so she got enough sun. The town's people would stare from behind trees just to catch a glimpse of Rory. Lorelai hadn't allowed Rory to go back out into the town yet, she wasn't going out until she looked healthy and had Libby back. But this ban hadn't stopped the town bombarding Luke and Lorelai with questions about her and what she was doing back. The town knew almost everything, but Lorelai had told them that Rory would be coming back out soon, she was just ill, and funnily enough the town chose to believe it.

The day Libby came out of hospital, Lorelai was so pleased. She had tried to see Libby a few times in hospital but she was busy with work and Luke and Skye, so Rory had spent everyday at her bedside, working at the same time, just waiting for Libby to wake up. Then 3 days after she did, the hospital discharged her and said she was safe to go home.

Rory was renting Lanes old apartment but Lorelai wouldn't let her move in until they were both healthy, and by the look of Libby, they were gonna be with Lorelai for a long time.

Rory drove Libby back to Lorelai's, took her out of the car and carried her in to the living room. Lorelai and Skye were waiting, Luke was at work.

"Rory, can I hold her" Skye looked so sweet as she sat on the sofa, Libby sitting on her knee, Libby was even smiling. Rory watched as her 2 daughters sat together, even if one of them didn't know it. Lorelai saw the look Rory was giving the girls and it hurt her, it hurt her to know that Skye shows everything that used to be wrong with Rory's life, but that something so beautiful and unknowing came out of it.

"Ok so, Rory, welcome home" Lorelai had never felt any better in her life than she did right now. She was engaged to the love of her life, she had her daughter, and her 2 beautiful granddaughters, all together in their house. Lorelai had always felt that their house had looked lonely when it was just Rory and Lorelai living there, but now it felt full of life and happiness. She didn't want to sound cliché like those movies she and Rory had always made fun of but she really had got her happy ending, just like Cinderella.

On a wonderful day like today

The sun shines above me

The birds and the trees

Singing in the street following the breeze
