It was the night before Rory went off to college and she and Zoe had been hijacked in Emily's TV room until Lorelai had come to collect them. By the time they got back to Stars Hollow, they were ready to fall asleep.
"Okay, we need to go to bed because you have school tomorrow and you have to go to college." Lorelai said as they walked to their bedrooms.
"When was the last time we had a living room movie sleepover?" Rory asked.
"I'll bring the blankets down." Zoe said excitedly.
They got up the next day and everyone was rushing around. Zoe was running late for school and Lorelai was waiting for her.
"Zoe!" Lorelai commented. "School, now. I'll quickly drive you and then I will come back and get Rory and we'll drive to Yale."
"Okay." Rory called out.
Zoe came running down the stairs and pulled Rory into a hug.
"Bye." Rory smiled.
"Bye," Zoe hugged her. "Have fun at college. Learn heaps."
"I will," Rory responded. "This is ridiculous, I'll still see you on the weekends."
"I know." Zoe said now.
Lorelai drove Luke's truck to take Rory to college and came back the next morning, while Zoe stayed over at Sookie's place. She went to the middle school to collect Zoe after school to take her for an after school snack.
"I can't go," Zoe said to Lorelai. "I have to go to ballet."
"Oh okay," Lorelai said as they walked toward the dance school. "I'll pick you up after ballet and we'll go to Luke's."
"Okay," Zoe answered. "But I also have homework, so we can't be too long."
They went to Luke's and then got back to the empty house. Zoe was doing her homework and went downstairs to find Lorelai who was sitting on Rory's bed.
"Are you okay?" Zoe asked.
"I'm okay," Lorelai said now. "This room seems so weird without her in it."
"Well, she'll probably be in it on the weekend." Zoe offered.
"I know." Lorelai said quietly.
"Mum," Zoe sat next to her. "You still have me for another seven fun filled years. Were just a two girl household now."
"There will be less time waiting for the bathroom in the morning." Lorelai tried to lighten the mood.
"That is true." Zoe said now.
