"Hey mom, I'm home."Rory called.
"Hey, hun!"Lorelai called."You want tator tots, pizza rolls and bagel bites for dinner?"
"Sure. I'm gonna finish up my homework while you cook them."
"You know, we should go shopping."
"Why?"Rory asked as she headed to her desk, exhausted from working at Doose's.
"You've been making a ton of money, I mean you work everyday. I think you should spend some."
"No. I'm saving for Europe. Did you schedule our flight?"
"Yeah. We leave June 16th. Later then we planned but it should be fine."
"That's good."Rory finished her 4 math problems and moved on to history. She had to finish a four page paper by the next morning and only had one page complete.
"You done yet?"Lorelai whined 15 minutes later.
"No. I'll be an hour or so."Rory said.
"It's already 9 though! It'll be bedtime by the time you're done!"Lorelai complained.
"And then I have to read for lit class."Rory added."Let me study."
Lorelai groaned and headed to the fridge for some ice cream.
Rory managed to finish her paper and began reading her book while laying in bed.
When Lorelai came in 20 minutes later she found Rory asleep with the book in her hand. Lorelai removed it and tucked Rory under the covers. She turned off the light all the while wondering why her daughter was working so hard. She had plenty of spending money for Europe. Lorelai had no idea what was up but she had a bad feeling in her stomach and couldn't get rid of it.
