A/N- I'm skipping Saturday, because the weekend was the filler. I just put the filler in until Eli started SHH.
Disclaimer- I still don't own Gilmore Girls.
Sunday Morning-
I woke up on this beautiful Sunday, it was weird though. Usually mom and dad are up talking and just well being loud, but this morning it was so quiet. It was around 10 o'clock and I had just woken up, so I laid on my bed just thinking how different it was going to be changing schools. Do I really want to change schools? I have all that work to catch up on, so I'm basically screwed either way I try to help myself. Nobody is up yet, well just mom isn't up yet, and dad is at the diner. He had some early deliveries to take care of. Rory is at Yale, so she isn't here. Mom is still sleeping, she had a late night at the inn some wedding thing to do I guess. It's just so weird. Its one of those moments where it's so eerie quiet that you can hear your brain think. I think I'm just going to get up and go to the diner. Mom will probably be down there in an hour or so. I'm already to go, it was so hard to be quiet getting dressed. I just wished I could drive instead of walking to the diner.
Well lucky me, I get out of the house just about to hit the street, and Babette comes out. You can only imagine how lucky I am. I knew I was going to be out there for 5 minutes or more. She literally ran to me, she almost knocked me down until I moved over a tad. "Good morning suga!" "Hi Babette." That's the worst thing you can do, acknowledge Babette. Now I know that sounds mean, but if they set nuclear bombs off and everybody was running or trying, you'd still be talking to Babette. "So I heard you might be leavin that fancy school Chilton." "I really would like to talk Babette, but my dad said he needed me at the diner." I really just didn't want to talk about school, and second how'd she find out I was leaving. See that's what I mean about people knowing your business. I think that Patty and Babette have tapped into people's phone lines and houses. Can you just imagine Patty and Babette trapped in prison by the FBI for invasion of people's privacy, with no town gossip? "Ok, Hun go help your dad, oh Luke's a stud. Oh and ask your mom later if we can borrow some cookin oil, Apricot is getting stuck under the house. See ya later suga." "I will Babette."
Oh my gosh, saying dad is a stud. Ugh that made me shiver. Now I'm Babette free, thank gosh. I'm going to the diner now; hopefully nobody will ask me anything else. Taylor and the town people kept looking at me disappointedly. Maybe they found out I'm not as good a Rory. Ten minutes later I was arriving at the diner. I walked in, not a big crowd of people so I was happy. "Hey dad." He was getting some one coffee right as I walked in. "Hey Eli, I be right there." So dad finished retopping everyone off. "Dad, everyone knows." I had on my depressed- feel sorry for me face. "What does everyone know?" "That I can't handle Chilton. The town knows Rory did so well there, so the whole town is disappointed that I'm going to SHH. I mean I've never went to public school, so this is crazy. The whole town is just ready to watch me fall, it's like they have a mini camera on me watching everything I do and say."
Luke's POV- I looked at my daughter after hearing her rant. She looked just like her mother, ranting a mile a minute. I couldn't help but smile at how alike they are.
After dad's little freaky space out, mom walked through the door. "Eli, I thought you were still sleeping?" "No, I woke up and then got dressed on my way to the diner, and Babette started asking me all these questions about Chilton. She asked me if the rumors about me leaving were true. I just couldn't take it anymore so I ran to the diner. An on the way here all the whole town kept looking at me." "Eli, take a breath honey." Mom started rubbing my back, I needed it. I thought I was going to pass out after that rant. I ranted like my mother I knew that, so that also might have been why I need to be comforted. "Sweetie do you want to come to the inn with me, you can at least be away from the town?" "Yeah, I guess that would be a good idea, I'll go." "Ok, let's go." "By Hun, we'll be back before dinner." Mom kissed dad like it was going out of style. I almost had to turn my head, because it was notching to R. It's a diner for pite sakes. "Bye dad see ya later." Mom led me out the door, and we were on our way.
We were linked arm in arm our whole way there. On our walk we talked like best friends walking to school. "So you felt like you were being attacked?" Mom said wanting me to fill her in on this morning. "Yes all those people looking at me it sucked, because they knew." "Mom…" "Yeah Hun." "What would you do if you had to choose between Chilton and SHH?" "Well I would put my opinion first and decide what I would be happy with." "Thanks." "For what?" For what she wanted to know. I'm thanking her for being so understanding an supporting me. Most parents don't support their kids that much. So I had to tell her that. "Mom, I want to tell you thank you for supporting me in everything, you and dad." "Aww, Hun that's what moms and dads are for." Mom said as she put her arm around my waist.
After the ending of our talk, we arrived at the inn. We walked in it never changed even though you think it would. There was always Michel, that was what you wish would change. His attitude is what should change. "Finally you're here." Michel said with his drawn out French accent. "These people are so stupid today; they don't want to do anything during checkout. I have to pry out the information, bye asking them 5 times. "Hey Eli, go check on Sookie, while I help Michel really quick. I'll be there in a minute." "Ok, what ever you say." So I was off to the kitchen. Sookie was baking pie or cake or something along those lines. Let me introduce you to Sookie. She is our klutzy chef, and she is my godmother/aunt combined. She has been both to me since I was born. "So, Sookie what is this huge cake for?" "Oh hey honey bun, that's a test cake for a wedding party this week. So where's your mom?" "Oh she at…" "Where is who at?" Mom said halfway in the door. I'm guessing she needed a coffee fix after helping Michel, anybody would. "Sookie just asked me where you were." After that I was told I was needed outside to do some landscaping.
A few hours, no after 5 hours later I was done "landscaping," that word contained all the things you never want to experience again. I was covered in sweat, grass, and mulch aka manure. "Well Eli, are you ready to go home?" Was I ever ready? "Yes, I am." "Yeah, you need a shower, so lets get you home." I managed to hold my nose in the inn, until I got outside. I didn't want to smell myself. I smelt like I was rolling with cows, and then went and rolled with pigs. As we were getting inside the Jeep, mom tried to put it as nicely as she could. "Ok, wow Eli, can you take the back way home. Your going to smell up the Jeep. I love you and all, but I don't want that smell to linger all in the Jeep." "Ok, I guess I'll see you at home then." Mom drove off as I walked the back way home. I didn't mind walking home by myself, because again it was quiet. You can think about anything you don't have time to think about.
When I got home, the Jeep was already at home. I walked through the door, and I guess dad smelt me, because his face was priceless when he looked at me. I guess my smell was drawing more attention than the game. "What have you been doing all day, lying with farm animals?" Dad said it sarcastically so I had just had to stand my ground and bare it. "Ha-ha very funny, tell mom I'm home. I'm going to take a shower." "I will." I got done with my shower and realized how nice a shower can be. I changed into a t-shirt and jeans; it was around 7:30 when I finished. I took a whole hour in the shower, after I was clean. I thought I smelt it again so I washed up again. It was a torturous circle.
I was starving after changing. "Mom!" "Upstairs honey." "Ok." I went upstairs; mom was sewing something for a school play. "Well I see you cleaned up, and you smell like a new car. Are you hungry sweetie?" "Yes I'm starving." "Luke, Eli and I are starving, lets go get something to eat." "Lorelai after this inning." Dad sounded more interested in the game more than me and mom. "Luke, but were hungry, and you have to feed your daughter." Mom gave me a sly grin, I personally like that last line. "Ok, ok." The TV shut off and dad was coming up to put on his shoes. "So where do you guys want to eat?" Me and mom looked at each other and smiled, we both said "Luke's" in unison. Dad just rolled his eyes. "Okay, lets go, Caesar is still there."
So we all got in the Jeep on our way to Luke's. Dad led us in the door, and me and mom grabbed a seat at the counter. "So what do you want?" "Well Mr. Crabby, I want a burger, fries, and a coffee. "Dad same here." "How about a salad?" "Dad, no, I'm appalled you'd think I'd want that." "I love that she eats like me." After our meal we went home. I went and changed into my pjs, and brushed my teeth. When I was finished I went into the living room where mom and dad were making out on the couch. The only thing I could say was wow. "Mom, dad, what they hell are yall doing?" "Oh, Eli, me and your mom were…" "Ugh, yall were going to get it on on the couch where I watch TV." I sounded like a teenager, saying get it on. I have to say it was funny. "Eli, we thought you were sleeping." "Um, at least yall could up to the bedroom." Both of my parents were red faced, they were so embarrassed that I caught them. I went back into my room after saying good night to them. I fixed my sheets and crawled into bed, boy was school going to be interesting.
A/N- Ok, I hope you liked that chapter, its kind of long to be a filler, but oh well. I'm so slow at updating, but I had our fair to go to so I didn't have a lot of time to write. So hit me with some reviews, the more I get, the faster the update. Keep reading!
