JUNE 1982

"Lorelai Gilmore don't you dare leave the car when it has not stopped yet." yelled Richard after his thirteen year old daughter who was running up the stairs.

"Lorelai, get back down here!" yelled Emily running into the house after her husband.

"What?" asked Lorelai tears in her eyes.

"You better have one hell of an explanation." demanded Richard. Lorelai just stared at her feet.

"Well.." he urged on.

"I know what your problem was Lorelai, you never cared. You never showed any interest in school what so ever." said Emily.

"Now we have to find a whole new school for you to go to."

"Why do I even have to go to school? If I hate school so much why bother going?" asked Lorelai.

"She wont get into a great grammar school, now that they know she's been expelled from Milcrest." said Emily ignoring her daughter.

"I don't know what were going to do.." said Richard putting his hand on his head.

"Why did they have to expel me anyway?" asked Lorelai moving over to the couch.

"Hmm, let me think." said Emily. "Cutting class, never going to detention, mouthing off to teachers, not following the dress code, not paying attention during class, being late to class..."

"Thats all you got?" said Lorelai sarcastically.

"That sarcasm young lady has gotten you kicked out of one of the finest privet grammar schools in New England." said Richard with force.

"I mean getting kicked out at the end of your seventh grade year.." said Emily.

"Graduate with kids you don't even know."

"Make friends with kids, and leave them in ten months."

"My god!" yelled Lorelai standing up. "I know, I know all of this!"

"If you know this then you would have listened to your teachers warnings and payed attention." said Emily.

Lorelai looked down.

"What school are we going to send you to?"

"A good school, not ones with hooligans running around the halls like animals."

"I agree, it has to be a fine educated school." said Emily.

"I have an idea." said Lorelai.

"What?" asked Richard. Lorelai sat back down.

"My friend Rebecca was driving with her mother one-day and their car staled. They were right outside a little town called...Stars Hollow..and while the car was getting fixed..Rebecca toured the town. She told me it was very small and there was a school there..a Jr. High. She told me it looked very nice, and it was very clean..the only mice were in the science lab.."

"What's the name of this school?"

"Stars Hollow Jr. High.."

"Its public." said Emily in disgust.

"Oh no..you are not going to a public school." said Richard.

"Why not..please daddy." begged Lorelai. "Like you said it was for just a year..and then I'm out..and I can go to a fancy highschool.."

"Lorelai.."

"Please, just say you'll discuss it." said Lorelai with pleading eyes.

"Fine, we'll discuss it."

"Yay!" clapped Lorelai. "Thank you." she ran up the steps.

Emily and Richard talked about Stars Hollow Jr. High and decided to look into it. What they found amazed them. The school itself wasn't that large, it had many clubs to join, drama, sports, even some were academic related. The town that the school was located in had no criminal rates and seemed safe. Plus, Lorelai would be going there for only a year.

Lorelai was so excited when she found out she could go to Stars Hollow jr. high. She wasn't that upset about leaving Milcrest, she didn't have many friends there anyway, except Rebecca, but she was moving to Florida, so it didn't matter.

The whole summer Lorelai was excited and anxious, but when the last weekend of summer vacation arrived, Lorelai found herself nervous and scared.

"Ms. Gilmore. Ms. Gilmore." Lorelai opened her eyes and quickly shut them again. "Ms. Gilmore. It is six AM. Mrs. Gilmore wants you down for breakfast in fifteen minutes."

"Why do I have to get up so early?" asked Lorelai her voice muffled.

"First day of school, Ms. Gilmore." said the maid of the day. Lorelai 's eyes shot open and she jumped up in bed.

"No way!" she cried. "Its here?" the maid smiled.

"Yes, Ms. Gilmore, now hurry, your mother is waiting." the maid left. Lorelai ran to her closet and looked for her uniform, but remembered that she was going to a public school and that she could where anything she felt like.

Lorelai crimped her hair and let it hang to her sides. She put on her light blue jeans and a black tank top. She got out her sneakers and applied some lip gloss and some glitter for her hair.

"Lorelai!" called Emily. Lorelai appeared at the steps.

"What?"

"You missed breakfast, lets get going, don't wanna be late for your first day of school." Lorelai grabbed her black backpack and raced out the door.

Lorelai looked at the building in front of her. It was smaller then Milcrest but it still scared her. What were these kids going to think of her? They all knew each other for a while, was she going to feel like an outcast?

Lorelai slowly entered the building and went into office.

"May I help you?" asked a man.

"Yes, I'm Lorelai Gilmore..I'm new here..I'm not sure where to go."

"Well, welcome to Stars Hollow jr. Highschool." the man said with a smile.

"Thank you."

"You will be in Ms. Hopkins Homeroom, where you will go to now. It is classroom 1E and there you will get your schedule and class times."

"Thank you." smiled Lorelai again.

"Don't mention it, if you need anything, I'll be right down here. I'm Mr. Meryl."

"Thanks again. Bye." Lorelai walked out of the office and into the empty hall.

"Great, first day at a new school and I'm late to class." Lorelai said to herself and searched for homeroom 1E.

Finally she found it. Lorelai took a deep breath and twisted the door knob. Inside were a bunch of students who were talking and laughing with each other. Lorelai smiled and walked up to the teacher who was trying to take attendance.

"Excuse me." said Lorelai.

"Yes sweetie."

"I'm new here..and I think I'm in this homeroom class." Ms. Hopkins smiled and took Lorelai 's paper that the principle gave her.

"Yes, you are in this homeroom."

"Good." smiled Lorelai.

"Class." announced the teacher. The class stopped what they were doing. "Class, this is Lorelai Gilmore, she is new here..and I expect you to make her feel at home. You will sit over there behind Mr. Danes..Luke raise your hand so Lorelai can see." Lorelai saw a boy raise his hand. He didn't look up, it looked like he was reading a comic or something. Lorelai smiled and walked over to her seat.

"Hello." said Lorelai to Luke.

"Hi." said Luke, still not looking up.

"I'm Lorelai."

"Thats great."

"Don't you have a name?"

"Luke." he said.

"I'm sorry..Cuke?"

"Luke.."

"Duke?" Luke turned around annoyed, but suddenly was lost for words. The girl was smiling at him. She had the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen, he could stare at them for hours.

"Luke.." he said in a whisper.

"Whatcha readin'?"

"Nothing.."

"It looks like the paper."

"It's the sports section."

"We got a sports buff." Luke sighed and turned around. He heard Lorelai making noises behind him with her mouth. Luke rested his head in his hand trying to drown the sounds out.

Lorelai smiled. She saw Luke getting annoyed, which only wanted her to bug him more.

"Lemme get that." Lorelai reached over and grabbed the paper. Luke watched her turn to the horoscope section.

"What are you doing?" he asked.

"When's your birthday?"

"What?"

"Your birthday, the day you were born.."

"I know what a birthday is."

"Then tell me.."

"Why?"

"I'll tell you mine if you tell me yours." Luke sighed and told Lorelai his birthday. He watched her tear out the horoscope and write something on the back.

"Psst. Luke." said Lorelai. Luke rolled his eyes.

"What?"

Lorelai looked both ways suspiciously and slid the paper across the desk. Luke took it and turned it around.

'You will meet an annoying girl today, talk to her and she'll go away.' Luke smiled and turned around to face her.

"What do you want me to do with this?"

"Keep it, and it will give you luck one day." Luke folded it up and put it in his pocket.

"So, what's with the baseball cap?" asked Lorelai. Luke smiled and before they knew it, they were in a deep convocation that ended when the bell rang.

Lorelai walked out of her homeroom and looked for her locker. It was locker 86. When she found it, she immediately noticed Luke opening the locker next to her. Lorelai smiled, as soon as she saw Luke, she thought he was cute.

Lorelai skipped up to him and smiled.

"Well I guess were neighbors." she said. Luke turned around and smiled.

"Yeah, I guess."

"I was never any good with lockers."

"What do you mean?"

"I could never open them, they would get stuck, I would forget my combination.."

"Ah."

"Yeah. So..." just then two boys and a girl walked up to them.

"Luke!" called a boy as he walked over.

"Hey Andrew."

"How was you summer?" asked the girl.

"It was fine, how about yours Sookie?"

"It was alright.."

"Guys, were gonna be late for Global." said the other boy.

"Chill Jackson." said Andrew.

"Fine, but when Mr. Jones gives us detention, I blame you one hundred percent."

"Uh, hi, I'm Lorelai." said Lorelai popping out for behind her locker door.

"Hi..I'm Sookie, this is Andrew Jackson and Luke."

"We know each other.." said Luke.

"You do?" asked Andrew.

"Oh yeah, Luke and I, we go way back.."

"All the way to homeroom.." finished Luke.

"Well, Lorelai, what class do you have next?"

"Mr. Jones."

"Oh goody we all have global together." smiled Sookie.

"Thats great." said Lorelai.

"You don't live in the town, do you?" asked Andrew.

"No, actually I live in Hertford."

"Hertford, no kidding."

"Yeah..so, to global."

"To global." said Sookie.

The rest of the day went by fast. Lorelai had homeroom, global, and lunch with Luke. Her last class was English and Lorelai spent the whole time looking at the clock, waiting for the hour hand to hit three. When it did, Lorelai ran to her locker to get her books.

While walking out of the school, Lorelai saw Luke, Sookie and Jackson waiting for a very slow Andrew. She was about to walk up to them, but the bus pulled up, and she had to go.

Luke watched Lorelai get into the bus. He thought she was the most beautiful girl, he had ever seen. She had long dark brown hair, an amazing smile and the most beautiful eyes he has ever seen.

"Luke?" Luke turned around and saw his friends staring at him.

"What?" he asked.

"You like her don't ya?" asked Sookie with a grin.

"What? Yeah right.." said Luke.

"What ever you say." she giggled back.
