Holy crap! I haven't updated in a really long time. I almsot forgot about this thing, haha. Okay umm I left off at Luke and Lorelai and Emily fighting and stuff. I guess it's only logical to begin there again.
Emily stood stunned. "Did you hear the way that boy talked to me?" Emily questioned Richard. "That was preposterous."
"Calm down, Emily." Richard told her. After years of marriage, he still had no grasp on what would help matters, or just make them worse when it came to Emily. This was an example of one of these times.
"Calm down?" Emily was insulted. "Did you hear the way that boy talked to me? The way my daughter talked to me? There was no need for that!"
"You're right, there wasn't any need for that, now lets sit down and—"
"Sit down? And what? Finish our dinner like my daughter and granddaughter didn't just storm out of here with a horrible man? Is that what you were going to say, Richard? Because I'll tell you right now, that's not going to happen." Emily stormed off, with Richard following closely behind her.
"Emily? Emily! What are you doing?" Richard demanded. Emily would not respond, instead she stormed through the house, picking up her jacket and scarf. "Emily! Talk to me!" Richard pleaded. Still she said nothing before opening the door and shooting Richard a look that could kill. She slammed the door behind her. Quickly, she made her way to her car, and pealed out of the driveway.
"Talk to me that way" Emily mumbled under her breath. "Nobody!" The more she thought, the angrier she became. She finally rounded the corner and saw Lorelai's car sitting in the driveway. Emily parked her car in front of the house. She took her keys our of the ignition and sighed. Still annoyed she pushed the door opened, and walked up to the house. She heard screaming coming from the inside.
"What did you say!" She heard Lorelai scream.
"I just told her everything she needed to hear, Lorelai. What the hell is wrong with you?"
"That's my mother!" Lorelai screamed.
"Lorelai! You were yelling at her too. You said so yourself, she was being horrible. She was treating you like crap. She was treating me like crap. What the hell is going on?" Luke was getting frustrated with Lorelai.
"I just…" Lorelai paused. "I want to be able to have a normal relationship with her. No more attacks. I don't want to be Poland anymore. I want Hitler to be overruled. I just want one normal night. One night that will just go right. No fighting, no more stupid arguments." Lorelai broke down and started to cry. "I don't know why I'm yelling at you. You did nothing, and yet I'm yelling at you? She's the one that attacked you." Lorelai whispered. Luke wrapped Lorelai in his arms, and Lorelai continued to cry softly. The moved to the couch and she stayed secure in his arms.
"You can make it work." Luke told Lorelai, softly. Lorelai on shook her head.
"It's too late." She said, once again getting angry. "Things are never going to be alright. They'll never be normal. I caused this. I caused it all. Everything that's going on, I made it this way. I ran away when I was 16? What was I thinking? I was thinking about me, that's all. Me, and only me." Lorelai started shouting.
"You were thinking about what would be good for Rory, and for you." Luke told her.
"But what about Emily?" Lorelai was crying again. She had no idea where any of this was coming from, and that frightened and confused her. Why, was she suddenly feeling like everything was her fault? Why was she suddenly so sympathetic of her mother, after they had bombarded her boyfriend.
"Lorelai, you did what was right for you." At that moment, the door flew open, and Emily came raging in.
"You're absolutely correct, Lorelai." She screamed, at the top of her lungs. "What about 'Emily'? What about 'Richard'? Not only, what were you thinking when you ran away, leaving nothing but a note, but what were you thinking getting pregnant? Nothing, that's what! You never think!"
Lorelai stared at her mother who had just barged through the door. How long was she out there? How much had she heard? Was she spying on me? What's going on? Why did she follow me? She couldn't answer any of these questions, and she couldn't find the strength to ask them. A once motivated, competent and strong willed woman was standing in the middle of a mental breakdown, and her mother was here to witness it. Suddenly, Lorelai collapsed to the floor. Rory and Jess, who had been standing by watching from a distance, came running out to help, but were pushed aside by both Luke and Emily.
"Lorelai! Lorelai, are you alright?" Luke rushed over to Lorelai. Emily stood bewildered over her daughter. "Lorelai, talk to me." Luke said, trying to stay calm.
"Get some water!" Emily demanded. She knelt to the ground beside her daughter. "Lorelai, wake up" She repeated Luke's attempts to awaken her daughter, before Luke came rushing back. He splashed a small amount of water over Lorelai's face, before she woke up. "Are you alright, do you need to go to the hospital?" Emily asked. Lorelai shook her head. "What happened?" Emily asked, in a panic. Lorelai didn't respond, Luke and Emily worked together to move Lorelai to the couch. There was an awkward silence for at least a full minute before somebody spoke.
"I'm sorry, mom" Lorelai said, so softly, that Emily almost didn't hear it. She absorbed it for a second or too, before responding.
"I'm sorry too." She told her daughter. "We still need have a lot to talk about." She expressed. Lorelai nodded her head.
Okie, maybe not the longest chapter. I planned on only making a chapter or two more, but I'm not sure anymore. Whatever, we'll see when we see. Hopefully I'll update soon. Not much going on, but hopefully I don't get bored. I have two ideas on how to end the story, I guess we'll just see what happens. Please review.
