Rory Gilmore opened the door to Luke's diner and entered the building quickly being followed inside by her twin sister, Tori.

The two girls looked around for a moment before smiling at the sight of their mother and made their way over to their usual table where she currently sat.

"Hey," Rory said softly as she sat down across from their mother.

"God, it's freezing." Tori commented as she slid into the booth next to her twin.

"What do the two of you need? Hot tea, coffee?" Lorelai questioned her daughters with a smile.

"Lip gloss." The two replied simultaneously.

"God, nearly sixteen years and it's still creepy when you two do that." Their mother muttered as she began digging through her purse while the twins grinned at each other.

Lorelai finally found her large makeup bag and pulled it out of her purse, "I have vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, and toasted marshmallow."

Tori shook her head in disapproval, "Good Lord, we've got to get you back on sugar, mom."

Her twin nodded, but peered curiously into the back, "Anything in there not resembled a breakfast cereal?"

Lorelai nodded, "Yes," And began digging once more before pulling out another, smaller makeup bag, "It has no smell, but it changes color with your mood."

"God, RuPaul doesn't need this much makeup." Rory muttered.

Their mother jerked back feigning hurt, "Wow, you're crabby today."

Tori nodded in agreement, "I know, she nearly bit my head off when I tried to borrow her maroon sweater earlier."

The older of the two sighed, "I'm sorry. I lost my Macy Gray CD, and I need coffee."

Lorelai grimaced, "Ooh, I have your CD." She informed as she pulled said disk out of her bottomless bag.

Rory gasped, "Thief!" as she took the CD from their mother.

"Sorry, and I will get you some coffee." Their mother smiled as she stood up and grabbed a cup.

Tori got to her feet as well, "I'll come with you. I, too, am in desperate need of a caffeine kick."

The two Gilmore women made their way over to the counter where the owner, Luke was giving Loralai a disapproving frown.

"What?" Lorelai exclaimed sitting the cup down, "It's not for me. It's for Rory, I swear."

Tori stepped up then and gave the man her best smile, "Could I have a cup as well? Please Luke!"

Luke shook his head at the two, "You're shameless." But he grabbed another cup and fixed them both some coffee anyway.

Lorelai rolled her eyes, 'Look, Officer Krupke. She's right at that table, right over there." She turned to point only to find a man blocking their sight talking to Rory.

"Who's that?" Tori asked her mother curiously as she grabbed the cup Luke offered her.

Lorelai looked over at her youngest daughter, "Your future daddy or possibly brother in law, doesn't look like he's too picky either way." Lorelai takes the offered cup. "Thanks." And the two make their way back to their table.

"Yeah, I've never been through here before." The man told Rory just as Loralai and Tori returned.

"Oh, you have, too." Lorelai responded as she slid up next to the man while Tori took her previous seat.

"Oh, hi." The man smiled at seeing her again.

"Oh, hi." Lorelai grinned sarcastically, "You really like my table, don't you?"

"I was just, uh. . ." He stuttered out.

"Getting to know my daughter." She finished his sentence coming to stand behind her girls.

"Your. . ."

Rory looked up at him sweetly, "Are you my new daddy?"

Tori scoffed playfully, "No Ror, he's obviously planning on becoming my brother in law."

The man looked positively dumbfounded, "Wow. You do not look old enough to have a daughter. No, I mean it." He then pointed to Rory, "And you do not look like a daughter."

Lorelai nodded along, keeping her smile, "That's possibly very sweet of you. Thanks."

He then looked over at Tori curiously, "Is she...?"

"Also my daughter, they're twins." Lorelai responded, getting a little irked.

"So. . .daughters. You know, I am traveling with some friends." He offered, his smirk returning as he pointed to the two men sitting at the bar looking over at them.

"They're sixteen." She finally snapped at the man.

"Bye." He said quickly as he and his friends exited the establishment.

"Drive safe." Lorelai called after them as she took her seat and grinned at her two daughters.

The three of them promptly broke into a giggling fit.

Lorelai sighed and stood up, "Alright, I gotta get back to the house and change for work, you two stop by before heading to school. Bring your French papers and have Michel take a look at them."

"Okay, bye mom." The twins replied simultaneously and smiled at her.

Lorelai stared at them for a moment curiously before giving a light shiver, "God, that weird." She whispered before walking out the door.

Later that morning, Rory and Tori walked through front door of the Independence Inn to see their mother before school. Once finding Lorelai standing at the front desk on the phone, the twins walk over, each giving her a kiss on the cheek.

"...Well, because you told me you did and I never forget anything, so this one's on you, right?" She questioned the occupant on the other side of the phone as the girls walked around the desk and began looking through papers, "Pleasure doing business with you."

"What is your offspring doing?" Michel questioned once Lorelai hung up the phone.

"We need stamps." Tori informed the snooty French man as Rory looked around on the desk.

"Can we have these?" the elder twin asked once finding some.

"No."Michel deadpanned

"Take them." Lorelai said, ignoring him, "What's with the muumuu?" she asked gesturing to Rory's outfit, "That's not what you were wearing this morning."

Tori rolled her eyes at her twin's fashion sense, "She made us go home and change, and then she picked out that." The younger twin pointed at the offending item, disgusted.

"Stop you two." Rory whined, "The only reason I had to go home and change is because Tor spilt coffee on me!" she accused, pointing at finger at her twin.

"Victoria Gilmore!" Lorelai reprimanded, "How could you? Wasting coffee! I'm so ashamed!"

"Mom!" Rory exclaimed in mock offence.

Tori playfully shoved her sister, "It's not like I spilt it on purpose, I would have rather drank the coffee, thank you."

Lorelai laughed at her two girls, "Alright you two, but seriously Ror, you couldn't find one made of metal in case anyone has X-ray eyes?"

Rory rolled her eyes while her sister and mother laughed at her, "And now we say goodbye." She informed them as she grabbed hold of Tori and began pulling her away.

"Ooh, hey," Lorelai called out stopping the girls, "don't forget to have Michel look at both your French papers before you go."

Said French man looked up in surprise, "Excuse me?"

"Oh yeah," Tori exclaimed, "Would you Michel?"

"That'd be great." Rory added while both girls gave him sweet smiles.

"No."

"Come on, Michel." Rory begged

"Yeah," Tori smirked, "We'll tell all the ladies what a stud you are."

"Hm. I believe that memo has already been sent." He replied with a sardonic grin.

Lorelai spoke up in a French accent, "Oh, please, Michel. Pretty please with sucre on top. I will stop talking like zis."

The poor French man sighed in exasperation, "Leave them. I'll look at it if I get a chance."

Both girls set their papers down on the desk, "It's due tomorrow." Tori informed him.

"And pay special attention to the grammar." Rory added strictly before both girls left for school.

After leaving the Inn, the two girls met up with their childhood friend Lane and the three begin their trek to school.

"When are you going to let your parents know that you listen to the evil rock music?" Rory questioned as Lane slips a Woodstock '99 shirt on over her head covering up the one she left home in.

"You're an American teenager, for God's sake." Tori agreed as she digs through her backpack searching for her book.

"Guys, if my parents still get upset over the obscene portion size of American food, I seriously doubt I'm gonna make any inroads with Eminem." Lane replied as the three stopped so she could fix her clothing.

Tori nodded and shrugged her shoulders, "Girl's got a point."

The trio looked up to see that they were standing in front of the 'Teen Hayride' sign.

Lane pointed to the sign as she slipped on her jacket, "I have to go to that."

"The hayride?" Tori questioned with a smirk.

Rory scoffed, "You're kidding."

She nodded smiling sarcastically, "My parents set me up with the son of a business associate. He's gonna be a doctor."

Tori asked, "How old is he?"

"Sixteen." She responded as the three continued on their way to school.

"So he's gonna be a doctor in a hundred years." Rory nodded in understanding.

Lane chuckled, "Well, my parents like to plan ahead."

Rory sighed in pity for her friend, "God, you have to go to the hayride with him?"

The Korean girl nodded, "And his older brother."

Tori winced, "Oh, now you're kidding."

"Koreans never joke about future doctors." Lane informed before asking, "So, I guess the two of you aren't going, huh?"

Rory shook her head, "No, I'm still fuzzy on what's fun about sitting in the cold for two hours."

The three arrived at school just as Lane shook her head, "Don't expect me to clear it up for you. What about you Tori?"

Tori nodded in agreement with her sister, "I love the cold, but sitting on a hayride with a bundle of sticks digging into my ass is not the way I plan on spending my time."

The girls walked inside, passing a guy standing on the steps who watched them enter. His sight on one of them more than the other two.

The next afternoon once the girls got out of school, they made their way to the Independence Inn to see their mother. They enter through the front door, but don't see their mother anywhere in the lobby.

Seeing Michel at the front desk the two walk over to him.

"Hey Michel," Tori greeted him; "did you get a chance to look over our French papers?"

Without looking up the Frenchman answered, "Yes I finished them and gave them back to your mother."

"Great!" Rory exclaimed, "Where is our mom?"

Still without looking up he replied, "In the kitchen."

The twins look at one another and have a silent giggle on Michel's behalf before leaving him to find their mom.

They get to the kitchen door and can hear their mother and her best friend, Sookie, giggling on the other side

"Mom!" The girls call out simultaneously as they enter.

"Oh!" Lorelai and Sookie jump back and the girls can see that they are both fighting off smiles.

"You're happy." Rory stated curious.

"Yeah." Their mother agreed, her smile growing while Sookie is bouncing in place.

Tori stared at her mother suspiciously, "Did you do something slutty?"

Lorelai scoffed playfully, "I'm not that happy." And the two women giggled again before Lorelai handed each girl a gift bag, "Here."

"What's going on?" Rory questioned the two women.

"Yeah," Tori spoke up, "You're both being really weird. I mean more than usual."

Lorelai scoffed at her youngest daughter's comment, "Open them!"

The twins reach into their respective bags and both pull out a plaid skirt.

Rory looked up confused and asked, "Are we going to...

"... be in a Britney Spears video?" Tori finished her sister's question.

The two adults stared at them oddly and Sookie leaned over to whisper to their mom, "God, it is so creepy when they do stuff like that."

Lorelai leaned over as well, "You're telling me, I have to live with them."

"Will someone please tell us what's going on?" Tori finally exclaimed.

Lorelai opened her mouth to explain, but Sookie beat her to it, "You're both going to Chilton! Oh, sorry." She apologized at blurting out the news when Lorelai hit her on the arm.

"Mom?" Rory questioned hopefully while Tori stood there in shock, her mouth agape.

Lorelai nodded happily, "You did it, babes. You both got in." she lifted up the letter as proof.

"How did this happen?" Rory cried happily.

"You didn't. . .with the principal, did you?" Tori asked playfully, coming out of her stupor.

"No honey that was a joke." Their mom laughed, "They have some open spots. You guys are gonna start on Monday."

"Really?" The twins cried happily.

Lorelai nodded, "Really."

"I don't believe this!" Rory exclaimed as she walked forward to hug her mom, "Oh my God, We're going to Chilton!"

Lorelai grinned, Yeah!"

The two took a step back and the Twins looked at each other brightly, "Tori, We're going to Chilton!" Rory said, grinning at her sister.

"Hell yeah we are!" Tori cried out as she embraced their mother as well.

"Sookie, I'm going to Chilton!" Rory told her as they hugged.

"I'll make cookies." Sookie told them as the two separated and Tori took her sister's place, "Protestants love oatmeal."

"We have to call Lane." Tori said as the twins moved to the leave the room only to come back. Both girls threw their arms around their mother again, "We love you!" they whispered to her.

"And I love both of you." She replied holding them tightly.

"Ugh, I look awful!" Tori cried as she looked at herself in the mirror wearing her Chilton skirt.

Rory scoffed as she situated her own skirt, "Oh please, Tor, it's impossible for you to look awful in anything."

Tori stopped and considered what her sister had said before shrugging, "True, but this skirt almost succeeds and that is not acceptable!"

Her elder Twin laughed at her, "Come one let's go show mom and Sookie."

The two walk out of Rory's room and down the hall to the front door. Rory stepped outside first, "So what do you think?"

Sookie rushed forward, "Wow, it makes you look smart!" She exclaimed.

Rory laughed at the older woman, "Okay, no more wine for you." She turned to look at Lorelai, "Mom?"

Lorelai smiled, "You look like you were swallowed by a kilt." She then frowned in confusion, "Where's your sister?"

Rory pointed at the front door, "She's right there."

"Tori," Lorelai called, "come on out sweetie!"

"No!" they heard from the other side of the door.

"Well, why not?" Their mother asked looking at Rory, worried.

"Because!" Tori cried dramatically, "This skirt is very close to making me look hideous and I don't want anyone to see me in it."

The three women on the porch shared an amused look, "Okay, well honey," Lorelai started calmly, "You do know that the entire school is going to be seeing you in the skirt on Monday?"

There was a moment of silence on the other side of the door until, "OH MY GOD!" Tori cried in horror causing the three of them to choke on their laughter.

"Tori please come out." Rory begged, "I promise it doesn't look that bad."

They waited for her answer, "...okay." She muttered as the door opened and Tori stepped outside in a very long, slightly too large skirt.

"Oh sweetie," Lorelai cooed as she walked closer, "It's not that bad."

Tori looked up a little teary eyed, "You can fix it up, can't you mom?"

Their mom nodded with a small smile, "You bet I can."

Tori smiled up at her mom hopefully.

"What about you, Ror?" Lorelai asked as they all began to make their way inside.

Rory rolled her eyes and smiled, "Fine, you can hem it... A little."

"Ooh." Their mother grinned clapping happily.

"Only a little." Rory reprimanded.

Lorelai nodded in understanding as they walked through the front door, "Okay. Or I could hem it a lot."

"Hem mine a lot," Tori spoke up excitedly, "I'm talking the bottom of my butt cheeks hanging out short." She joked grinning up at her mother.

"You got it; we want the whole school to see what's going on under there." Lorelai agreed smiling back at her youngest.

Rory laughed, "No, you're not. I don't want them to be too short, and we get in trouble."

"I can't believe tomorrow's our last day at Stars Hollow High." Tori exclaimed as they made their way into the living room and over to Lorelai's sowing corner.

"I know!" Rory agreed just as ecstatic, "Today I was so excited I dressed for gym."

"You're kidding!" Lorelai gasped in shock as Tori stepped onto the stool and she began to pin her skirt.

"And I played volleyball." Rory added proudly as she watched her mother work.

"With other people?" Lorelai asked theatrically.

Tori shook her head and laughed, "Oh yeah she played, and she nailed Lindsay Lister right in the face."

"Oh no, honey!" Lorelai sighed sadly.

"No mom," Tori stopped her as she stepped down, "That's a good thing. We hate Lindsay Lister."

Rory nodded as she took her sister's place, "Yeah she's always copying our work in class, plus she's a real slut."

"Oh," Lorelai paused and said, "Well then good for you, sweetie."

Sookie walked out of their kitchen, "Where's your paté?"

"At Zsa Zsa Gabor's house." Their mother answered with a serious face.

"Right." Sookie nodded, "I'm going to the store because you have nothing." She informed as she threw on her scarf, "You feel like duck?"

"Ooh, if it's made with chicken, absolutely." Lorelai replied causing her girls to laugh.

"I'll be back." Sookie called as she walked out the door.

"Bye." The three yelled back as the door closed.

"All right." Lorelai said as she finished, "This will give you two an idea. Go see how you like it."

"Okay," Rory jumped down off the stool and the two made their way to her room, but stopped and looked back over at their mother.

"I love being a private school girl." Rory grinned happily.

Tori nodded smiling just as wide, "Yeah thanks mom, you're the best."
