Rory opened Luke's diner door and glided over to the counter, she had a dark blue pea coat which was buttoned up halfway down as she couldn't button it over her baby bump. As much as she didn't want her bump to be on show she hurried to sit down and waited for Luke to come to the counter.

Rory took a small book from her pocket and took a deep breath as Luke stood behind the counter "morning Rory" he said "You look" he stuttered.

Rory smiled "big I know" she rolled her eyes "could I have a small cup" she grinned.

Luke shook his head "I can't"

Rory pouted "Mum told you not to give it to me didn't she" she moaned standing up and grabbing her book "I hate being pregnant" she huffed walking back out of the diner.

Luke raised an eyebrow.

Rory barged into doosie's market and walked over to the chocolate area; she stood in front of the vast amount and licked her lips. She picked a galaxy bar and walked over to the freezer and took some freeze pops out.

Rory turned into the aisle and picked up some packet of twinkies before going to the till to pay. She rolled her eyes as Taylor watched from the storage room "What are you staring at Taylor, haven't you seen a pregnant girl buying confectionary before" she handed the money to the shop keep and took the bag from him and stormed out.

Rory closed her eyes and walked out of sight from the wandering eyes of Stars hollow, she trudged through the small woods and stood a few feet away from the bridge. Taking her bag of stuff she sat on the bridge dangling her legs over the edge placing he bag down beside her.

Rory looked down at her mirage in the water and wiped her unshed tear. She took her book from her pocket again and opened to the page she was reading while she ate the freeze pops.

Rory smiled and read out loud.

'Bit by bit, I told him the day's misfortunes. ―—and she said you taught me all wrong, so we can't ever read any more, ever. Please don't send me back please sir'

Atticus stood up and walked to the end of the porch. When he completed his examination of the wisteria vine he strolled back to me.

'First of all' he said, 'if you can learn a simple trick, Scout, you'll get along a lot better with all kinds of folks. You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view'

'Sir'

'Until you climb into his skin and walk around in it'

Atticus said I had learned many things today, and Miss Caroline had learned several things herself. She had learned not to hand something to a Cunningham, for one thing, but if Walter and I had put ourselves in her shoes we'd have seen it was an honest mistake on her part. We could not expect her to learn all'

Rory loved that part she thought absentmindely wishing that the people of stars hollow would climb into her skin and walk around in it in order to feel what she feels. She finished all of the stuff in her bag beside her and looked at the time on the phone, she sighed as it was 4 o clock in the afternoon.

"Little more and then me and you will go home Baby" she said to her belly rubbing small circles, she opened her book and continued to read.

Rory answered her phone "Hi Mom"

"Hey sweet pea, I was just wondering when you are coming home?" Lorelai asked "its 6.15"

Rory cursed "I'll be home soon I just need to finish this last paragraph" she replied "I totally lost track of time"

Lorelai nodded "Okay sweets well I shall see you soon and I will get takeaway" she stated "I know Rory I will get you a salad" she said before she could say anything.

Rory smiled "Okay mum" they disconnecting the call and Rory finished her last paragraph of the book and stood up picking her rubbish up with her.

"If you feel so empty, so used up, so let down, If you feel so angry" Rory sang readjusting her earphones as she buttered some bread "So ripped off so stepped on" She put some lettuce and some ham on the bread and put another slice on top after putting some mayonnaise onto her sandwich.

"So get up" Rory squished the sandwich to cut the crusts off the sides "Let's start a riot, a riot, let's start a riot"

Lorelai walked into the kitchen as Rory continued to sing three days grace as she stood at the counter eating her lunch. Lorelai smiled and crossed her arms. Rory looked up and nearly jumped out of her skin "Mum" Rory said taking an earphone out from her ear.

Lorelai smiled "I forgot how you have a good voice" she stated.

Rory rolled her eyes "what you doing today?" she asked.

Lorelai shrugged and walked into the kitchen "I might go over to the dinner and then I was thinking me and you could go shopping?" she asked.

Rory nodded "That could be good" she smiled wiping her mouth on a napkin "I got my pay check from Andrew this week for doing the morning"

Lorelai smiled jumping up and down "this is going to be so cool" she grinned "baby shopping" she shouted as she ran upstairs.

Rory laughed shaking her head. She took a piece of paper from her pocket and stared at the familiar scribble, she traced the writing on it and opened it one last time before putting it in her room.

Rory

As you know I have never been a one with words so I am writing to you instead and hopefully this will get to you in time before I reach New York.

I now understand why I always feel the need to run, I think I know if I stay in one place for long I have this mental feeling that I will screw things up so that's why I'm facing the most terrifying challenge in my life by staying in one place.

Once I have got to New York I will be heading to a friend's place to crash. But once I have done everything in NY I will be coming to you

Love

Jess

P.S I hope you like the book.

"Hello You Tube" Rory waved "it has been about 4 days since my last 28 week update and I wanted to share with you the baby haul I did today with my mother" she explained as she was kneeling on her bed in front of bags and boxes of baby stuff.

"I won't be able to show you the stroller I got but it is Kolkroft 3 wheel Stroller in Black that came to an amount of $498, most of the big stuff I will put pictures at the end of the video including roughly how I paid" she explained.

She opened a Gap bag "there was a sale on in Gap and I couldn't resist getting the normal baby grows, sleep suits and onesies" she smiled holding a dinosaur sleep suit "I did get a full sleep suit and the hood does have little teddy bear ears I got that in two colours, one blue and the other one grey"

She opened a bag taking out a selection of hats in different neutral colours such as white, grey and green "these are mostly for the first few months but I have bought two hats" she held up a blue canvas hat and a red and white woolly hat with a bobble on top.

"I also got at least 5 pairs of dungarees; 2 of which are denim which was $12.30 a pair" she stated holding a denim pair and mesh material "I just picked up a handful of tops most of them were at least $4 each and I picked some jeans which was roughly $14 each"

"I got this cute little baby blanket and burp set" she stated getting to the bottom of the bag "they are in here somewhere" she said bringing out a tops and trousers "aha" she said showing the camera "oh look how tiny these blue booties are" she cooed.

She walked over to her desk and sat down "so that's basically it, a few weeks ago when I knew I was having a boy I was apprehensive about it due to not having a father figure in my life but once I watched others in my yoga class the appeal is there for me now" she explained leaning on her elbows "I mentioned different names, I think in my 22nd or 20th week update and I have not decided yet but I am more realistic with my names"

She took her notepad out "I have put a definitely maybe Isaac" she sighed "it's hard not knowing if the name will suit him or not"

She leaned back into her chair "it's finally sunk in that in at least 6 to 9 weeks I will have a baby in my arms" she closed her eyes "I got to go now" she said opening her eyes "my bubba is tap dancing on my bladder" she smiled. "Bye"
