A/N: Hey to all the readers! I've been reading a lot of FanFictions, mostly Gilmore Girls but other stuff too and I have finally decided to try my hand at it.. I do love writing, and I'm pretty good at it, but I've never done this before and I want to know if it's a wasted effort. I welcome criticism, but don't be too mean!
Life Out Of Order
"Finn! Get a move on!" Colin yelled. By far the most punctual, he knew they had a schedule to keep. Most people thought he had a stick up his ass, but it was only compared to his loose and wild friends.
"Colin, Mate! Don't be cruel…the sun is up! Finny and the sun don't get along! Wake me up at 10:00, we'll go to the pub!"
"Finn!" Logan called to his horny friend, knowing exactly what he needed for motivation, "Do I have to remind you that it is freshman orientation? Lots, and lots of hot newbies confused and lost, waiting for an experienced Yale man to rescue them!"
"And they all have their daddies with them…" Finn dead-panned, then he perked up, "But I'm sure they'll all be interested in going to the Pub, familiarizing themselves with local culture!"
"Come on man….lets just go."
"Fine. But I'm going to need something to keep me awake," Finn paused for minute thinking, "Coffee, I need coffee, mates."
Logan paused while doing his hair, smothering it in products to achieve the perfect messiness for his pure blond locks, "Coffee? Not more alcohol?"
"I thing I need to be a little sober for this mates. These little girls, need to be attracted before I can get them good and drunk, and then we can do unspeakable things to them"
"You know, Finn you are never going to change, are you?"
"Never Colin! All children except one grow up! I am that child! I shall spend my life partying with a different girl every night, and NEVER shall I marry!
"Finn. You're my best friend, but it disturbs me that you can so easily quote from Peter Pan."
"Logan, it disturbs me more that you know he was quoting from Peter Pan," Colin said, hardly suppressing his laughter from the antics of his two friends, "Is there anything either of you would like to tell me?
"Shut up mate, lets just go."

They glanced in the mirror for a second. They were dressed casually, but still reeked of money. Colin was wearing a orange and white striped polo with jeans. Finn wore a green polo, but looked rumpled. His hair stuck out every which way, and there were small bruises under his eyes, from too many alcohol filled sleepless nights. But his custom made, pre ripped jeans showed off his muscular legs just the way he wanted, any girl could get hooked.
Logan, he looked perfect. His low riding, dark wash jeans fit him perfectly. They weren't too loose, and they didn't look like they were about to fall off, but the perfectly matched brown leather belt didn't look out of place. He had on a dark blue V-neck sweater and wore a brown leather jacket over it. He appeared more dressed up than his two closest friends, but that was always his style. "Well, lets go find our conquests for the evening."

"Baby, mommy needs coffee, okay?" Rory was tired, but happy. She was finally here, at Yale. No one thought she could do it, but she had. She was a single mom, with a two year old. She had had a baby without missing a single day of her Sophomore year in high school. She beat out Paris for Valedictorian, and still managed to be a great mom.
After everything that happened to her own mom, everyone expected Rory to drop out of Chilton and be forced to go to night school. But Rory was determined. She loved her baby girl, and didn't regret having her for a second, but she wanted a career.
Besides, everything had been different for her than for her mom. When she told Lorelei, her mom didn't yell, or scream, demand an abortion, or take away her coffee. She had immediately sat Rory down and they talked about the options.
And her whole family, everything had changed between them. Where Chris failed as a father, he excelled as a grandfather. Despite having his own new-born daughter to worry about, and his wife running away to Paris, he was there for Rory. He took her to school, to doctor's appointments, and he babysat whenever he could.
Chris even went to his parents. He told them that they had lost their chance to be loving grandparents to Rory, but Rory was having their great-grandchild, and however bad the timing, the baby was still a blessing. Chris had finally stood up to his father. When Lorelei was pregnant with Rory, he had been a pawn, done everything he was told to do, but now he was an adult taking care of his family.
Straub was impressed. Yes, he hated Lorelei for ruining everything his son could have had, and he resented her child, but his older granddaughter was still family. And this new child, would very likely be the heir to the Hayden law firm. Christopher had made it clear that he had no intention of having anymore children, and although he obviously loved GiGi, Rory was his firstborn.
So, he and Francine held a dinner, inviting Christopher and GiGi, Lorelei and Rory, and Emily and Richard. Straub told them that his will had been updated and Rory was the official heir.
There had been many troubles in the beginning. Lorelei didn't trust them, and she didn't want Rory to let them be involved in the baby's life. But as time went on, the families got closer, and they were perfectly at home with one another. Rory had been very surprised when Francine had invited her over to show her the clandestine remodel that had been going on in the Hayden Mansion. There was a beautiful, spacious room, that had been decorated so Rory would feel comfortable whenever she visited. And there was a slightly smaller, adjoining room, that would be the baby's nursery when it was born.
Emily and Richard were likewise involved in Rory's life. Richard had called in as many favors as he could in Chilton to assure that Rory would continue to attend during her pregnancy. They could not protect her from the snide remarks from her peers, but luckily, people hardly noticed her and no one realized she was pregnant until June of the Sophomore year, Rory had already been six months pregnant.
Emily and Francine had made it clear to all the ladies in the DAR that they were very proud that Rory would be continuing in her dream of becoming a reporter, and she would not be taking any time off from her education.
The gossip had been ridiculous, but everything had progressed almost normally. Finally, Rory had given birth to her beautiful daughter on August 4th. She had come almost a month and a half earlier than expected, but had luckily been perfectly healthy.
Rory smiled at all the memories, yes, her life was a little out of order, but it was her own.

"Well, mates," Finn said when they finally managed to emerge from their dorm into the center of the sprawling Yale campus, "Now that we're out and about with the bloody bright sun, we might as well find ourselves some pretty birds. A blond bimbo for you Logan, an air-head shiela who comes here with daddy's money to find herself a nice rich husband, a girl that will distract from Steph's blinding beauty for Colin, and a petite redhead for my sexy self."
" I don't like Steph," Colin defended hopelessly, everyone knew the two were in love and perfect for each other, except for them, "Steph is my friend, same as you guys."
"Colin please, you two have been in love with each other since 10th grade." Logan said, it was a little annoying to see how stupid two of his best friends were, preventing their shared happiness.
"Wait—do you really think that Steph loves me?" Colin said hopefully, then he straightened his expression, "No, it doesn't matter, lets just find some girls."
Finn was about to agree when he saw a familiar head. Looking down, his suspicions were confirmed, seeing his favorite little girl in the world. "Well men, I'll be seeing you later!
