Chapter 4: Come with me, George.

She sat on the couch for some time.

Why couldn't everything make sense? Seriously. Why couldn't there be some cool life-plan? "You are supposed to marry this person, tell this person to go to hell, have this many kids, go to this restaurant everyday, get this job..."

She dozed off on the couch at a time she was unsure of. Her dream was memorable:

Lorelai comes running through the streets of Stars Hollow in pajama pants, a coat, and her fuzzy blue slippers. She runs up to The Diner.

She flings open the door, and screams, "Positive! The test came back positive!"

Luke looked up from the counter, made a bee-line over to Lorelai, and kissed her for a long time. . She could feel something warm on her finger- a wedding ring. A gorgeous one at that.

"I'm gonna be a mom again!" she screams. "You're gonna be a dad!"

The second that last word came out she woke with a jolt. She found her self on the couch, still. It was 6 in the morning.

"6 am? That's not physically possible!" She groaned and dragged herself off the couch, then rambled over to the upstairs hall mirror Rory named "Lolita." When Rory was younger, they would talk into it like the wicked queen from Snow White. Lolita never lied. Why not give it a try.

"Mirror, Mirror on the wall, what the hell am I supposed to do now?" she waited for an answer. A sign, smoke signal, Morse code. Hell, she needed a blimp right now. Everything seemed...surreal. Was that the word? Oh yeah, surreal. She just at her reflection in the mirror.

Hair a mess.

Eyeliner and mascara flaked and smudged.

And just, there.

Blank, blah. She hated blank.

Life was confusing.

She did not just bail Luke out of jail last night.

She did NOT make-out with Luke last night, in his town house.

She did not get dumped by Jason over the phone last night.

She did not sit up half the night-completely silent.

Oh yeah, she did.

"Come on Lolita! You're my favorite mirror in the whole house! You don't make my head look big, the lighting is great…" she stopped. This was pathetic. And Lorelai Gilmore was NOT pathetic. She was going to get her life back on track. First thing is first.

She showered, and got dressed in sweats. Lorelai plopped back down on the couch and grabbed the first magazine she saw.

The headline read:

GEORGE CLOONEY! WHY WE LOVE HIM. WHY YOU DO TOO.

The first thing that came to mind was Luke. Just last night he was calling him George. Actually, he told her to! Well, not really. But still. Was this a sign? Duh. Oh course not.

She opened up the magazine to a random page. The George Clooney article, naturally. She had never sent he word "George" everywhere so much in her life.

The magazine took a quick, unexpected flight across the room.

This was pathetic.

She turned on the TV, and was shocked at what was the show was that was playing.

"OLD E.R. RERUNS?" she screamed to the upstairs.

She turned off the TV, forgetting the fact that there were more channels.

She would go see him, and everything would be normal.

Right?


HIS POV

'She's here. Finally.' He thought. She looked amazing, as usual. He would have to talk to her now. Why was he so nervous again? Oh yeah, last night.

She walked calmly over to the counter and started to talk.

"Hey."

"Hey."

"Everything okay?"

"Oh. Yeah, sure. Great."

Silence.

"Are you going to order?"

"No."

"No?"

"No."

"No?"

"We need to stop doing that." She giggled. "I'm not hungry."

"Okay, so?"
She was going to do it.

Lolita never lied.

"Come with me, George." She whispered. With that she took his hand and led him around back. And no one even noticed.

Lolita never lied, at least she really hoped so.


I know, I know, it's like a month late. Put down your torches and pitchforks! …Pleeasssssseeee? Life has been crazy. No worse than crazy-insane. And I am still dead busy, but I finally managed to finish this even though we are supposed to be studying for mid-terms. And by 'we' I mean me and my friend, who had a lot of input on this chapter, and is sitting next to me. She says 'hi.' And "I love George Clooney." Thanks Sam, no really. We got 'Lolita' from a song by our idol-Marilyn Monroe, in case u r wondering.

Only one chapter left!

Live, Love, and Review!
