The next day around noon, Rory went back to Yale. She had some work at the newspaper to do. She also wanted to look into some job possibilities since she was graduating in about a month in a half. Paris was out of the dorm, and so Rory had a quiet evening. Sunday was pretty mellow, too. Monday she enjoyed her regular classes, and went to work a few hours at the newspaper she was interning at.

The next afternoon she had received a phone called. Rory had just walked into the room, and her hands were full of books. She put them down and answered the phone. "Hey."

"Hey?" Emily replied.

"Oh hi, Grandma."

"I just wanted to call you, I got the invitations today. They are very lovely."

"Thanks."

"Soon, though. Just like your mother."

"Yup." Rory said trying to keep the conversation light.

"So how was Belgium?"

"Amazing, we took a train to France for a day, too."

" Paris, is the most beautiful city."

" Uh huh." Rory agreed.

"You should come by, soon." As soon as Emily had said it Rory felt guilty. "We haven't seen you in forever. How about a Friday Night Dinner."

"Oh shoot…" Rory thought. "I guess that'd be fine." Rory said because no one could say no to Emily. "But I think Dean might have to work."

"Oh." Emily said. "Well I guess it'll just be you and your mother."

"Mom?" Rory said aloud. She had only meant to think it but it slipped. She didn't want her mom to get stuck having to go, too.

"Of course, your mother. See you at 7." Emily hung up the phone.

Rory sighed.

"Hi mom." She called Lorelai's cell.

"Hehe…" Lorelai laughed. "Taylor and Luke are fighting. "

"Spring decorations, already?"

"Yep." Lorelai replied. "Guess what?"

"What?"

"I got your invitation today!"

"I can't believe you mailed yourself an invitation."

"I can't believe you didn't."

"So you know who else received the invitation, today?" Rory began. "Emily."

Lorelai sighed. "How are you already sighing?" Rory asked. I haven't even told you the bad news.

"Sorry, I heard the word Emily, it's a natural reaction."

"So what is your natural reaction to Friday Night Dinner?"

Lorelai hung up the phone. A minute later, she called Rory back. "Sorry, that was for dramatic effect."

"Rory, Professor Johansen's lecture is starting in 5 minutes." Paris yelled.

"I better try the Emily method." Rory thought.

" See you at 7!" She said, and hung up, leaving no time for Lorelai to make up an excuse.

Lorelai gasped, dramatically. "She pulled an Emily!"
