Plans of Reunion

Summary: The S.H.B.A., S.H.T.B., S.H.N.W.O., S.H.C.C.S.H.C., aka Taylor, want the town sweethearts together again. When he mentions it at a town meeting, everyone starts plotting, and Miss Patty has a plan that just might work. Narco future fic.

Pairing: Rory/Dean with mentioned Luke/Lorelai.

Disclaimer: If I were Amy Sherman-Palladino I'd have better things to do than write fan fiction. And you'd be seeing this story unfold onscreen soon. Well, actually you wouldn't, because Rory and Dean would never have broken up in the first place, so the town wouldn't need to plot to get them back together.

Rory woke up to the incessant ringing of her cell phone. "Hello?" she asked.

"Rory, dear, I hope I didn't wake you up." a familiar voice sang into the phone.

"Miss Patty? No, of course you didn't. But why are you calling?" she said, smothering a yawn.

"Well, actually, I have a small favor to ask of you."

"Fire away."

"Well, I'm sure you remember how I taught you ballroom dancing, for your coming out party."

"Oh. Yes, I remember that."

"Well, do you still remember how to do it?"

"Yeah, I think so."

"Well enough to demonstrate in fromt of the town?"

"Yeah."

"Well, would you be willing to?"

"Demonstrate ballroom dancing for the town? Oh, Miss Patty..."

"It would mean so much to me."

"Oh. Okay."

"Thank you, darling. The first rehearsal is at my studio, tomorrow at 5:00. So I'll see you then?"

"Yeah. Sure. See you tomorrow, Miss Patty." she snapped her phone shut.

"Who was that, Ace?" Logan asked, rolling over to face her.

"Woman from my town. She just roped me into demonstrating something."

"Oh. That's nice." He rolled over and went back to sleep. She looked at him angrily, not quite sure about why she was mad, only knowing that she was. She got up and dressed, and went to go get coffee.

Patty walked into Doosey's Market. Just as she expected, Dean was there, doing his old job, stocking shelves.

"Hello, Dean."

"Hey. I'm actually kind of busy right now, but-"

"This won't take long. Remember how I taught you ballroom dancing?" Dean didn't answer. Thinking of Rory obviously still hurt. "Well, we're going to have a demonstration. How would you feel about doing it."

"Fine, I guess." She knew he was only saying that to get rid of her, but he had not only agreed to do it, he had proved that he was still in love with Rory. Kind of.

"Practice tomorrow at 5:00."

"Okay." She did what he wanted this time. She walked off and left him alone. She didn't even try to grab his butt. Well, that wouldn't exactly help on her quest to get him back with Rory, but she still regretted her missed chance.

So, what do you think? Please review.
