Hi, sorry it took me so long to update.

Rory opened her eyes and stared at the room she was in. It was her own bed in her own apartment, but why did this seem so unfamiliar then? She got up and looked at the alarm clock beside the bed. It only said 6Am, so she still had two hours before work. She walked out in kitchen and poured herself some coffee. She usually got Luke to send her some coffee, but she hadn't been able to make it to Hartford and Friday night dinner last week, so she had to buy some crappy instant coffee.

"Don't go to Starbucks everyday to get coffee! They'll rip you out of money."

Rory laughed when she thought of her mother's goodbye before she moved to New York. It had been a tearful goodbye especially because of Laura. She'd clustered herself to Rory and refused to let go. In the end Lorelai had to pull her inside and let her call Gigi. When Lorelai came back out Rory was the one to cluster herself to her mother. Even though she'd been on her own ever since she started at Yale, she still felt like she'd been living at home. She had her room, and she could always run to Lorelai. But now she was going to be all on her own. Even during the time she'd lived together with James Butthead, she ran to her mom every time they had an argument.

"Yuck!" The coffee didn't take like coffee, it tasted more like garbage to Rory, though she'd never tasted garbage. Rory slowly walked through the apartment. On the walls there were hanging pictures of her and her mom. Suddenly Rory felt like she had to change some of the pictures, so she grabbed the shoebox she had old pictures in. The first bundle was from Lorelai and Luke's wedding. They had been through so much before the day her mother had dreamed of for so long finally came. The planning for this wedding had only taken a week after Luke suddenly realized how he'd treated Lorelai since April showed up. After the night where Lorelai suggested they eloped, Luke had been fighting himself. And it all ended up with him coming to Lorelai's house with some clothes packed in a bag, ready for elope. But Babette saw it through her window and the next day a wedding was set up at the Dragonfly. And then around seven months later Laura arrived to the planet.

Another bundle showed her at her Yale graduation. There was one where she was sitting together with Logan. Logan… The last she's heard of him was that he got married with some blond woman from a rich family and that they were expecting their second child. His whole college time he's done everything to work against his father, and then suddenly he'd become a real Huntzburger. It started not long before her graduation. His year in London had changed him to the person Rory feared he would become. And then only a day after her graduation she broke up with him.

Rory kept looking through the photos until she found what she was looking for. The Dean bundle. She smiled as she looked through them. They were the ones to be on the wall now, but then it hit her. What if Dean one day cam by? What would he think if he saw them? She took the best one and put all the other pictures back in the box and placed them behind the couch again. Then she looked at the clock. 7.15 it said. 45 minutes before she had to be at work.

"Rory, hey!"

"Dean?"

"If you say so" he smiled at her, and she felt her heart pound faster than it had ever since she met him the first time. She was standing in line at Starbuck's looking forward to finally have some real coffee.

"Haven't seen you in days" she mumbled, when it was her turn

"Can I help you?"

"Black coffee with extra whip cream and milk, please."

"Make it two and put it on my tap"

"Dean, you didn't have to" she said when he handed the money to the lady behind the counter.

"But I want to" he said with a smile. She chuckled and followed him out on the street where they automatically started walking towards the park where they had their first real conversation.

Okay, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, did I mention I'm sorry?

This story really sucks, I get it, but please don't hate me for it.

I know this part I veeeeeery short and crappy but I just kind of lost the story after two words, so I'm going to jump a little in time in the next chapter. Hey, wait up. Do you guys want me to continue or shall I just dump it all?

Please tell me!
