AN: I'm so sorry this took a few days! Dont kill me. Okay so here's the deal. I go back to school tomorrow. I take school work seriously. Not serious like 'I have to get As all year on everything' but I strive for As and Bs. So I'm not sure how frequent updates will be. But anyway, I hope you like this one. I dont know too much about how you would go about a divorce, so sorry, but when that part comes I'm going to write a part with Rory in it or just end a chapter. So basically I'm not going to write much of that. Sorry. Instead there are going to be some more things involving Dean's death. I only have one thing planned but you never know what could come out. So anyway enough of my babbling. Hope you like this one...

Disclaimer: I own nothing but my love for my favorite Limo Boy, favorite exotic Aussie, and favorite uptight smart ass. lol.

Lorelai and Chris were meeting up again, hopefully for the last time. They had gotten basically everything sorted out. As she walked down the stairs of her house, she couldnt believe the thought she was about to think. 'In a few hours I'll be legally divorced' she thought as she walked out of the house for the last time as a married woman.

------------------------------Stupid bar thing is not working so deal with this------------------------------

Rory was lying on her bed in her dorm, reading a book for her class. She was trying to focus but her mind kept drifting off to different things. Her mom and Luke's situation, Logan, and Dean. If things had been different recently she would be leaning her feelings more toward sadness. She knew if he hadnt gotten violent with her that she would miss him deeply. But all she missed right now was their past.

She was pulled out of her thoughts by her phone ringing in her purse. She marked the spot in her book and dug through her bag, glancing at the caller ID. It was from Deans house. 'Must be his parents' she thought as she hesitantly answered it.

"Hello?"

"Rory? It's Deans mother"

"Hi, Mrs. Forrester. How are you?"

"We're, uhm. We're holding up, thank you for asking dear. I just wanted to call and inform you of Deans funeral. We would greatly appreciate it if you would attend"

"Of course I'll be there. When and where?"

"At the church in Stars Hollow. The town thought it would be nice. It's next Saturday"

"I'll be there Mrs. Forrester"

"Wonderful. It'll mostly be the town. Of course some of our other family will be there but the majority will be people from the town. I just have one small favor to ask you"

"Anything"

"Well Reverend Hackett wanted to know if we were going to have anyone give a eulogy. I'm going to give one, I asked Clara but she said it would be too hard, so I was wondering if you wouldn't mind? It would be greatly appreciated"

Rory froze at the mention of a eulogy. Sure, she could talk about the way he used to be to her and how loving he used to be, but for some strange reason she felt like she would be lying in front of the townspeople who came, and his family. But she knew she would do it so she agreed.

"Of course Mrs. Forrester I would love to"

"Wonderful. Thank you so much. And Rory?"

"Yes?"

"We're here for you if you need to talk"

"Yes I know. Thank you"

"Thank you too dear. See you then. Buh bye now"

"Bye" she said, flipping her phone shut. She dropped it back in her purse when she heard a soft knock at the door. "Come in" she said and Logan poked his head in, smiling at her, before raising one hand to reveal a large coffee. She accepted it gratefully.

"Bless you Logan Huntzberger" she said, sipping it.

"Who was on the phone?"

"Oh, you'll never guess"

"Dean?"

"Yeah, he came back just to call me and tell me how sorry he was and that he wanted to mend things when he saw his life flash before his eyes in that car"

"Seriously, who was it?"

"Mrs. Forrester, Dean's mother. She was calling to inform me of the funeral. It would mean so much to her and her family if I came so of course I said yes. I'll of course be there for his family. They're not the ones who hurt me. But then she informed me that Reverend Hackett back from Stars Hollow wanted to know who would be giving a eulogy. She's giving one, of course, and she asked Clara but she said it would be too hard. So..."

"She asked you?"

"Yeah. And I couldnt decline. But there's just this nagging feeling telling me that it'll be hard for me to go up there and sort of lie to everyone"

"So what're you going to do?"

"Just think about how our relationship used to be while I speak and hopefully the feeling will dissipate"

"It's a nice thing you're doing, for his family"

"Yeah"

"Have you spoken to your mother lately?"

"No...no I havent. Not that I dont want to but...it slipped my mind"

"You two should talk"

"Yeah, I'll do that now" she said pulling out her cell phone and dialing the all too familiar number. She was, however, met with the voicemail but it was different. Lorelai had apparently changed it for what she was doing that afternoon.

Hey, you've reached Lorelai. I wont get back to you till later because in a few hours I'll be a legally divorced woman. I've been dreaming about this day for my whole life! Anyway I'll get back to you as soon as I can but dont bet on me being happy at all!

She listened to her mothers bitter and sarcastic message and couldnt help but realize that this was actually happening. Luke really did cheat, and her mother was really divorcing him. 'I guess she was right. Things just arent working out' she thought as she flipped her phone shut and slipped it back in her pocket.

"She's really divorcing him, huh" Logan said more like a statement rather a question.

"Sounds like it. God, when did my life get so messed up?" she groaned, burying her head in her hands.

"It'll be alright" he said, pulling her to him to try and comfort her.

"But how do you ever know? How do you really know everything will be alright. It's basically a stab in the dark"

"Well you dont have to worry about Dean anymore, and your mother will be ridding herself of Luke, no matter how hard it is. Not to sound too harsh here but the truth hurts. Hopefully your mom will find someone better who wont do anything like that to hurt her"

"I hope so. My mom doesnt deserve that. All she ever did was be a great friend to Luke, a great girlfriend and fiance, and even better wife. And I always saw Luke as a father when my father wasnt around" she said, scowling as she thought about Luke.

"It'll all work out in the end"

"I hope you're right"

A little while later after Logan had left Rory had gotten to work. She studied, worked on her next article, and now she was sitting down at her laptop once again to work on the eulogy. She had about a week to write it and learn most of it so she wasnt staring down at the papers the whole time. She took a long sip of her coffee before opening a blank document and beginning to type.

----

Paris walked into Rory's room and couldnt help but smile at the sight. Rory was leaning her head on her arms which were folded over her closed laptop. She was asleep. Paris walked back out to the common room.

"Finn, could you help me get Rory to bed?"

"Sure love" he said, standing from the couch and following her to Rory's room. He carefully picked her up and walked over to the bed, laying her down after Paris pulled the blankets back and then covered her up. He kissed her forehead before walking back out and collapsing on the couch. Paris came out and softly closed the door, walking over to her room.

"You staying Finn?"

"If you dont mind"

"No problem. Night"

"Night love"

Rory awoke the next morning and walked over to her desk. She opened up her laptop and smiled at the eulogy she had finished last night. She remembered nothing but working on that, closing her laptop and falling asleep. She checked another document to confirm that her article was also finished and that her paper for her English class was halfway done.

Happy with her progress, she checked the clock and realized she had an hour to get to her first class. She grabbed a towl and hurried to the bathroom, stripping down and letting the warm stream of water beat down on her shoulders.

After washing her hair and body she stepped out, wrapping the fuzzy towel around her tightly and walking out back to her room. She dressed in jeans and a dark red turtleneck, pulling her hair back in a tight ponytail. She gathered her things and glanced at the clock again. She had just enough time to get some coffee and head over to her first class.

She walked out into the common room and saw something on the table by the couch. There was a large cup of coffee and a small piece of paper folded up, adressed to her. She sipped the coffee with a smile and unfolded the note. It was short and simple and she immediatly knew who it was by the handwriting.

Talk to her

With a sigh, she stuffed the note in her pocket and pulled out her cell phone, falling against the couch and pressing speed dial '1'. The call was answered on the second ring.

"I'm a legally divorced woman"

"I have to give a eulogy"

------------------------------Stupid bar thing is not working so deal with this------------------------------

I know that took a few days to get out and it was really really really short and I am so so sorry! I tried uploading other things but FanFiction was being dumb and it didnt let me. Then I just got sidetracked and I know these arent good excuses but I'm really sorry so please dont stick me in the guillotine! I'll be forever grateful. Okay, anyway. I hope you liked this one. I go back to school (blegh) tomorrow so I dont know how frequent updates will be. Sowwy. I'm going to try and get them out as often as possible. My mom had a laptop that my grandpa gave to her and she's letting me use it. It's stationed in my room at my dad's but since she's getting a wireless router and I plan on spending more time at her house. I'll be able to type up new chapters there and then either upload them from the laptop or save it to a disc and upload somewhere else. Enough of my rambling. Hope you liked this chapter, and I promise to get the next one out as soon as I can.

Next chapter: Later in the chapter there might be a time lapse to the funeral, making it a bit longer, but I'm not sure. I might get out a short one and then another one right after that with the funeral.

So now Lorelai is divorced and Luke is almost out of the picture. I'm not sure how much longer this story will carry on. I'm almost out of ideas. That doesnt mean it's ending in two or three chapters but it's not going to be very long. I'm thinking maybe...twenty chapters at the most? I'm not sure I just know that it wont be going over twenty by too much. Anyway...

Please please review!
