AN: Ok, THIS is part 2. I just put 3 up in place of this and then I was lookimg at it, going, 'ang on, is that right?' Good thing my coffee just kicked in, because it wan't. So, this is the next part and 3 will be up in a minute.
Life had not exactly stuck to the plan for any of the Gilmore's. Richard and Emily had their lives sorted, but after them, Fate just seemed to think, 'screw you, we're doing things my way', and played with the rest of their lives as if it were a roulette game.
Lorelai's unplanned teen pregnancy was just the begining as from then on, her life yo-yo'd from the good to the bad.
It took her twenty-two years but she finally married the father of her child. The union did not last long, however and they parted ways just before their daughter's college graduation.
When it came to Rory, it didn't seem to matter how carefully she planned things or how detailed her lists were, nothing was certain, especially when it came to the men in her lives. Her father wasn't around until her mother was engaged to another man - the only man that had been there for Rory her whole life. And the three men she dated through high school and college were not much better than Christopher. At first they seemed great, but at some point during every relationship, Rory would catch a glimpse of what she was really getting herself in for and more likely than not, she would decide that it really wasn't that great.
Of course, these three men were the ones to end their relationships, but Rory could tell, looking back at everything, that that, right there, that was the moment when things started to go wrong.
Her life had taken so many detours, that at times, she had trouble making out where she had started off. But there had always been one person anchoring her to home, shining a light on the path back to where she belonged.
Her mother had always been there to help, to guide, to give answers, and when these things failed, to wallow.
But wallowing wasn't on the cards these days. Not for either Gilmore girl.
They were both happy, in life and in love, and it was thanks to a man who had always been there for them, whatever they needed, and his nephew, the reformed town hoodlum.
No matter the twists or turns her life had taken, Rory was sure that she would always find her way back to peace with the help of those three people. Her people. Her family.
