An: Okay, the voting is looking good. So far, Logan is in the lead to break first. I don't know though. The voting could turn around. We still have some chapters until the contest is over. We will see! Alrighty...
Craving of the day: Buttercream icing. Oh. my gosh.
Disclaimer: I won nothing.
Rory was thinking of ways she could win the contest. She was gonna need her Mom and Finn's help. Rory was so relieved to hear that Colin decided to spend the weekend at Steph's dorm. She really didn't want confrontation. Rory started setting up the place for Showgirls night. Finn was bringing home the food. Her mom would be there in 5 minutes. Rory sighed. She could get Logan to break. Logan's a guy. All they think about is sex.
Knock knock.
Rory raced to the door. She opened the door to reveal a very round pregnant woman.
"Hey, Mom." Rory said hugging her mom. Rory stepped back to let her mom in.
Lorelai walked into the foyer. "Hey, Sweets. Ready for some—Holy moley! Are we in The Von Trapp house? Let me guess are you Maria?" Lorelai said observing the interior.
Rory laughed. " No, mom. This isn't a house. It's a penthouse and I'm FAR from studying to be a nun." Rory said laughing. Lorelai laughed too.
Lorelai sat down on the plush expensive couch putting down her purse. "Could you grab me some water?" Lorelai called to Rory who was heading to the kitchen.
"Sure!" Rory called back.
Lorelai glanced around and found a piece of paper on the coffee table. She started reading it.
-skimpy outfits
-lots of flirting

Lorelai laughed. "Hey, Ror? What's this?" Lorelai asked as Rory set down the drinks and sat down. Rory looked over and laughed uncomfortably.
"Oh, I have yet to tell you about the contest." Rory said picking up a pen.
Lorelai smiled. "What kind of contest?" Lorelai asked, very intrigued by the sounds of this.
Rory grinned slightly. "A celibacy contest." Rory said simply.
Lorelai's face dropped slightly. "What?" Rory asked worriedly.
"Um, Luke and I did the same thing." Rory was a little perplexed still.
"So?"
"Well, the contest ceased around the time he was concieved." Lorelai said pointing at her round tummy.
Rory frowned a little. "Oh, well, that wont happen with us. Anyway, I need your help. I'm very determined to win." Rory said confidently.
Lorelai's smile returned. "Oh, well, I can help. Where's Finn?"
Rory glanced at the clock. "Well, he should be on his way to get food."
Lorelai grinned. "Do you have his cell number."
"Yes." Rory said slowly. "Why?"
"He needs to make a little stop at the music store." Rory rolled her eyes and picked up the phone. She dialed his number.
"Hello?" an Australian voice rang through the reciever. Lorelai grabbed the phone from Rory.
"Finn?"
"Yes, who do I have the pleasure of talking to?"
"Lorelai Gilmore-Danes." Lorelai said proudly.
"Ah, Rory's mother. How may I help you?"
"Coukd you pick up some cds? No questions asked?" Lorelai said.
"Anything for you and Rory."
"Great, here's the list…." Lorelai said calling off different C.D.s. Rory knew where this was going. Frank Sinatra, Barry Manilow, and Ashlee Simpson?
"Got'em." Rory grabbed the phone back from her Mom.
"Thanks, Finn. Call when you're on your way home."
"Alright, Love. See ya in a bit." They hung up.
"Ah, step one is done." Lorelai said.
Rory smiled. "We aren't going to be spending a lovely evening at home, will we?" Rory asked.
Lorelai laughed and shook her head. "Didn't think so." Rory replied.
"Now, we just have to wait for Finn to get home. Then the real fun begins. I may be pregnant but I can still move around for an adventure." Lorelai said.
"Mom, what kind of adventure?" Rory asked cautiously.
"Oh, you'll like this one trust me. You do want to win the celibacy contest, correct?" Rory nodded. "Okay then, we need all the materials and the plan for when Logan returns tomorrow."
Rory nodded. "Okay then, step one completed." Rory confirmed.
An: Alright, suggestions and voting are still open. Please review. I'm going to visit my sister this weekend so expect an update late Sunday. Thanks!
