Disclaimerrr: I won the lottery and bought Gilmore Girls!!! (yeah. maybe next week.)

So here goes nothing… KEEP THE REVIEWS A-COMINGGG!!!

On the train I'm thinking I made the wrong move. All I did was leave a note. Logan, I'm gonna be gone for little while. Don't worry. Its summer I'm supposed to be out. –Rae

I got off the train and found a phone booth. I picked up the phone book that was inside and found the listing for Mariano. This was crazy.

I had just got off the bus and walked a few blocks with my two bags. One was big with all my clothes and other stuff. The other was my bass that I picked up from Nate's house. He was still sleeping when I got there so I snuck in there back door and into his room to take it. His house was so big that no one heard me and I knew he slept like a rock so there was nothing to worry about.

I got to the door. It was a giant door. I reached out my hand and paused in mid air. I realized I was still wearing my black and white striped tights, red shorts, and a Ramones Tee from last night. At least they'll recognize me. What was I so nervous about? I knocked before I could change my mind.

That's when he came to the door. Before when I met him he was just some creepy fan of the band but now I know. He's my father. My father.

He stood there with a puzzled and surprised look on his face. "Rae?"

"Yeah um, hi."

"Hi" he looked nervous.

"So um, I left the other night the uh way that I did because, see my mother's name is Rory but I uh, I never met her and so seeing her I just assumed by the name and the face that she was um my mother so I uh kind of freaked because you don't just meet your mother every day if you know what I mean and-"

"You wanna come in?"

"Yes. Thank you."

I walked inside to their small apartment and looked around. I saw a ton of book shelves but what I was drawn to was the rows and rows of CDs on the far wall. I wanted to walk over and browse the titles but I could do that later. Now was business time.

"You want some cereal?" he asked.

"Sure." So much for down to business. I am meeting my father for the first time and he just asked if I wanted some cereal?

He poured me a bowl of Captain Crunch at the table and I sat down next to him. It took ten minutes for either of us to speak.

"Listen Rae…"

"Yeah?"

"I don't know how much you know about um this situation but-"

"I know you're my dad."

"What?"

"I know. I asked my- I asked Logan and he gave in."

"You know we are both really sorry. Me and Rory. She really, really wanted to keep you. I really wish that I got to see-"

"I get it. It's not your fault."

"Thanks." He smirked.

"Do you mind?" I asked standing up and pointing to the CD collection.

"No, go head. I'm just gonna go call Ror."

I took a deep breath. Mom. "Kay."

I looked for another hour or so. I found out where I got my exceptional taste in music from. I looked until he asked if I wanted to watch some movies. I said yes and that's how we spent the rest of the afternoon. He tried calling Rory like 50 times but it went straight to voicemail.

"That is the greatest movie ever." I said.

"'Fatso' is genius."

"Tell me about it. I've seen it at least thirty times with my boyfriend…"

For some reason when I said the word 'boyfriend' Jess flinched. He seemed to ignore it. "Wanna take a shower? I'm sure you're tired and I've got some work to finish up."

"That would be so great. Is it okay if I bring the stereo in the bathroom?"

"Sure

"Thanks. I brought like half of my CDs. I was thinking some Clash?"

"Sounds good. I'll be in here" he pointed to the living room.

"Kay" and I left for the shower.

P.O.V. normal

Ten minutes later, Rory Mariano opened the door to her small house and walked inside. She had a long day at the paper and she just wanted to crash. She walked in and immediately her husband stood up quickly from the couch looking nervous. She heard the water running and a girl's voice singing softly from the bathroom.

"Hi." She said uneasily.

"Hey. I um, tried calling you all day."

"My cell was dead." She put her coat down on the couch and walked toward the bathroom door.

"I've got something to tell you."

She turned around. "You sure do."

"It's not what you think."

"It's not what I think? Jess, there's a girl in the bathroom!"

"Not just a girl." The water and stereo shut up.

"More than one girl?!"

"No! It's-"

He was cut short by Rae walking out of the bathroom in a towel.

"-your daughter." Jess finished.

Rae stopped short and looked up with fear in her eyes.

Rory had tears. "What?"

"Yeah uh she came this morning."

"Oh my god." Rory said breathlessly.

"Yeah."

"Hi." Rae said.

"Hi."

"I'm uh gonna get dressed." She grabbed her bag and Rory nodded. She shut the door behind her.

"She's here?"

"Yes."

"She came this morning?"

"Yes."

"And she's staying?"

"I think so."

"Does Logan know?"

"I don't know. Probably not."

"My baby's here."

"I know."
"What's she like?"

"What?"

"My daughter. Rae. You've been with her longer! It's not fair! What have you been doing? What is she like?

"Shes…cool."

"You just met your daughter and all you have to say is she's cool?"

"We watched 'Fatso'."

"Welcome Home long lost daughter! You've gotten taller! Wanna watch 'Fatso'?"

"That's pretty much how it went down."

"You're kidding."

"Kinda."

"Oh my god. Does she know that you're her father?"

"Yeah. She said that she got Logan to give and tell her."

"Woh."

"Yeah. Woh"

Rae then walked out of the bathroom, her hair big and curly and her eyes slightly teary.

"Hi."

"Hey there."

"…"

"Uh. Um." Rory fidgeted and her eyes glanced across the room. "You wanna watch 'Fatso'?"
