Dearly Beloved
Summary: This is a what if story. What if Chris & Lorelai had gotten married? What might have happened? Well, this is what I think could have happened! Again, in case you are still wondering, not a one-shot anymore! This chapter is Lorelai's Point of View again.
A/N: Hey, so I am hoping that I can post this not too long after chapter three, b/c I am writing it right now...and I have not posted chapter three yet. So I am about to...maybe I can write this quickly! Read & enjoy!
Disclaimer: Things I have bought since chapter 3: Brad Paisley's new CD. That's all. Not Gilmore Girls and the rights to it. So, there you go...I really still don't own Gilmore Girls. And I don't own this song either. And really basically all I own is this story idea, b/c there aren't any new characters (yet...but I don't think there will be either...except Mr. limo driver and Savannah in chapter one...)
Chapter 4: New Town & I Think I'm in love
After running away from the guy she still couldn't believe that she had made out with in the middle of the town, she realized that she needed to find a place to live. She was now walking down the street and suddenly someone said to her, "Well, hello darling, you look lost."
She turned and saw a very large and boisterous looking woman. "Not exactly," I replied, "I am new here and I am looking for somewhere to work and somewhere to live. Do you think you could help me?"
"Well, then doll, since you are new, nice to meet you. I am Miss Patty. I don't have any job openings but let me direct you to the Inn. Mia may be able to help you." Miss Patty pointed her in the direction of the Independence Inn and told her just to ask for Mia.
"Thank you so much Miss Patty, you don't even know how much this means to me," I said appreciatively.
"No problem doll, come back and see me," Patty waved as I walked in the direction of the Independence Inn.
I reached the Independence Inn a few minutes later. She walked up the front steps and looked around in awe. It really was a beautiful inn. She walked in the front doors and walked up to the reception desk.
"Oh, hello there!" The woman behind the counter seemed surprised to see her. That was when I realized she was still in her wedding dress.
"Oh, that. Yeah, today was my wedding, but that is not why I'm here. I came here to see Mia. Miss Patty sent me. Are you Mia?"
"Why yes, in fact I am. How can I help you?"
"Well my name is Lorelai and I am new here and I am looking for a job and a place to stay. When I told Miss Patty she sent me to you."
Mia seemed to consider this for a minute, "What about your husband?"
"Well, see, here's the thing. I left him. The only reason we were getting married was because I am pregnant. And so I left him because we weren't meant to be together and we both knew it...and I plan to get an annulment and live here with my daughter." I gave her a quick explanation because she knew that was probably the only way she even had a chance of getting a job.
Mia mulled over this also, "How old are you?"
"Sixteen," she answered promptly.
"Hmm, and do you have any experience?"
"No, mam, but I assure you that I can work hard and I learn fast."
"Okay, well since you seem like a nice person I am going let you work here and see if it works out. Does that sound fair to you?"
"Perfectly."
"And I also have a place you can stay. It isn't much, but I think that living here will be easier for you and cheaper. Follow me and I will take you to your new home...well if you can call it that."
"Thank you so much Mia. You don't know how much I appreciate this. I won't let you down." They were now walking across the back yard of the Inn.
"Here we are, I know it isn't much but I hope that it will work out for you." She unlocked the tool shed and led her inside. "There really isn't much here, but you have the essentials: bed, shower, floor, ceiling, and walls."
"It is more than enough. I don't know how to thank you Mia. I really appreciate this."
"Thank me by being at work tomorrow at 9am sharp. I'll show you what to do then and you can get to work."
"I really appreciate this. You have no idea." She kept thanking Mia; she never thought she would get this lucky. She was starting to like Stars Hollow already.
"Not to intrude more than I already have," Mia sounded a little curious and tentative at the same time, "but do you have any other clothes to wear?"
She looked down at her shoes, "Actually no, I can't say that I do."
"Well I will get some jeans, a t-shirt and something to sleep in sent over tonight. You can't really sleep and work in you wedding dress."
"You don't have to do that. I mean, you have already done too much."
"It's no problem really. I like you, I will send those clothes over later," she walked to the door. "I think that everything will work out fine for you. Just wait and see."
"Thanks Mia," she said as her new boss shut the door to the shed behind her. After she left she looked around. It really wasn't much. But it was all she had and she was gracious. She sat down on the twin sized bed. Her thoughts drifted to the guy that she had kissed earlier that day, Luke. He really wasn't her usual type of guy. Well, actually he wasn't like any guy she had ever met before. And maybe that wasn't a bad thing.
Those few kisses they had shared on the side walk had been amazing. She never had amazing with Chris. Sure, there had been nice, good, and even a few greats, but never amazing. And never with just a couple of kisses. She wondered if she would ever see Luke again. She realized that she really wanted to see him again. She was actually thinking she might want to date him. But she was married and had a baby on the way. But he just seemed so nice. Maybe it could work.
As she argued with herself in her thoughts there was a knock at the door. That is probably the person with the clothes she thought. Who else could it be? No one else knew where she was. She got up off the bed and walked to the door. She pulled open the door and there stood the random guy, Luke.
I Think I'm in Love with You
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
ooh...ooh
Everytime I see you baby
I get kinda crazy in my head for you
I dunno what to do

Boy I think that I'm in love with you

Just the other night, baby, I saw you hanging
You were with your Crew, I was with mine too
You took me by surprise,
When you turned and looked me in my eyes
Boy you really blow my mind
I dunno what's gotten into me,
But I think I know what it is
I think I'm in love
Boy I think that I'm in love with you
I been doin' silly things when it comes to you
Boy I think that I'm in love with you
I been tellin' all my friends what I feel for you

I been doin' silly things when it comes to you
Boy I think that I'm in love with you
I been tellin' all my friends what I feel for you
Boy I think that I'm in love with you
I been doin' silly things when it comes to you
Boy I think that I'm in love with you
I been tellin' all my friends what I feel for you
Next time on Dearly Beloved: Well, don't you all want to know what happens after Lorelai opens the door to find Luke standing there? I bet you can't wait. Well, that is what is happening in the next chapter. Luke and Lorelai talk, but will she tell him what is going on, why she is wearing a wedding dress, and that she is pregnant? I guess you will just have to wait until I post it, read, and find out...but I am not posting anything until there are reviews for this chapter!
A/N: This chapter is basically the same as last chapter but from Lorelai's point of view…but I bet you figures that out. Okay, so here is the thing, I don't really have much to say here. This is sad, because I always have something to say! The song is "I Think I'm in Love with You" and it is by Jessica Simpson...so really there is no longer a theme within my musical choice...although most of it still will be country. This was just an exception. I think that this chapter was longer than the last and there were way less A/Ns.
You know what to do...that's right: REVIEW!
PS...as much as I love people who review and tell me to update soon...I really prefer reviews where you say something more! I mean even if you just tell me you like when so-in-so said this or when whoever did that. Just let me know what you liked/disliked...and what you want to happen in coming chapters. The more detailed your reviews, the more likely I am to update soon. b/c really...update soon doesn't make me want to update that much quicker!
I have chapter 5 written already and at least half of chapter 6 written. and i think chapter6 is going to be my favorite so far. anywayz, review so i know you are out there!
