"Adrianna." Jordan calls out and I hear some shuffling in the background and I secretly hope that he's putting his shirt back on.

"Listen, we can explain." Sawyer starts.

"Is it safe to remove my hand from my eyes?" I ask.

"Yes." Jordan says and when I do, I am thankful that they aren't making out anymore.

"Well, explain?" I ask, shutting the door behind me as I stand against it, my foot tapping the floor and my arms across my chest. I muster up the best pissed off look I can pretend to act on.

Honestly, it's kind of hilarious that they both look so nervous and want to explain me things. But, I actually feel kind of dumb for not catching on it earlier. Long distance, college, Sawyer asking about Jordan, William mentioning Smith! I thought he was talking about Evan, but he was actually talking about Sawyer. The asshole knew!

"Well, there's not much to explain." Jordan starts then rubs the back of his neck nervously, "Remember the boyfriend?" He asks and I nod. Then he gestures to Sawyer, "Yeah, well, that's him."

I arch an eyebrow at Sawyer who's staring at me, gauging my reaction, "Are you pissed?" He asks.

"What do you think?" I ask.

"Well, you look pissed." He says and I sigh.

"I just wished you would have told me. Does Evan know?" I ask and he nods. "What? He does?" I ask, surprised.

"He knows that I have a boyfriend, just not the fact that it's Jordan. He didn't want him to know." Sawyer explains.

"Okay, so first of all, I am not pissed at you." I grin at the two of them and they let out of a breath of relief and then glare at me.

"You were shitting us?" Jordan asks and I nod.

"Of course, it was nice to see him flustered." I point at Sawyer who shoots me a deadly look, "Also, I am really really happy for you both. You guys make a cute couple." I smile at them.

Sawyer takes Jordan's hand in his and smiles at me, "Thanks, I guess?" He chuckles before kissing Jordan on the cheek and I barf.

"None of that in front of me. Bless my virgin eyes."

They both glare at me, "Are you grossed out because we are both guys?" Sawyer asks and I look at Jordan who's just smiling, shaking his head.

"Enlighten your boyfriend, please." I tell him.

"Babe, it's got nothing to do with us being gay. She can't handle seeing couples getting affectionate, makes her feel lonely. Single people problem." Jordan chuckles and I pick up my hairbrush and throw it at him which hits his arm.

"Did you know that your boyfriend kissed me?" I look at Sawyer who looks surprised and turns to Jordan with a glare. I laugh, "And my revenge here is done, see you both downstairs." I grin before taking my phone from the dresser and leaving the two of them alone.

When I reach the end of the stairs with a huge grin on my face, Chris is standing just at the end and gives me a confused look on his face, "What are you laughing about?" He asks me and I laugh.

"Just caught Jordan and Sawyer making out." I say and his eyes widen.

"You serious?" He asks and I nod. "Those two fucking idiots." He shakes his head.

"I know." I smile.

"Are you pissed?" He asks and I frown.

"Why does everyone immediately assume that I'll be pissed?" I ask and he shrugs.

"I don't know, you have known Sawyer since you were a kid and he didn't tell you?" He says.

"Sure, I felt disappointed for a second but everyone have their secrets, Jay. I can't force anyone to spill them to me, right? Especially when I am not willing to do the same." I look at him and he gives me a small smile.

"You're kinda understanding."

"BS, I am very understanding." I grin and he laughs.

I hear footsteps behind me and turn around to find Jordan and Sawyer coming downstairs. Jordan glares at me and I give him a flying kiss. Sawyer comes to me and kisses my forehead before going in the living room but Jordan keeps on glaring at me.

"What did she do?" Chris asks, looking between the two of us.

"Told him I kissed her." Jordan whines and Chris laughs, me joining him. "Seriously, you too?" He looks at his best friend.

"Good job, Claire." Chris gives me an approving nod.

"By the way, Jordie, my bedroom, seriously? I'll burn those sheets." I give him a look and for the first time I witness a blush on his cheeks which makes me snicker.

"What? I haven't seen him in three weeks and we came here directly from school and he's leaving for the trip tomorrow." He whines.

"Wait, is this the reason he comes back home every three weeks?" I ask and he gives me a sheepish smile, "Well, you are lucky his father is loaded who doesn't mind paying for his ticket." I pat his head like he's a child and he gives me a look.

"An, are we doing this or not?" Breanna calls from the living room and I laugh.

"Gilmore Girls it is!" I say and drag the two boys behind me to the living room.

"So, who's playing who?" I ask.

I am Lorelai. Duh. Obviously.

Breanna is Rory. The crying baby.

Evan is Luke, for some very weird reason. Because he's seen every fucking episode, probably that's why. He can say he doesn't like it, but I have actually caught him watching it on his own.

Rose is Lane.

Sawyer is the grandfather, aka Richard.

So, I made Jordan the grandmother after a lot of whining. He's playing Emily Gilmore. God, I hate her the most.

Chris is ironically Christopher.

Luke is playing Logan and Jess, according to the scene.

Adam is Kirk. My favourite character.

"So, how are we doing this?" I ask Breanna who's executing the whole thing.

"Which scene do you want to do?" She asks.

"Oh oh, can we do that scene where Luke punches Christopher?" I ask and both Luke and Chris look at me.

"Guys, she means the characters." Evan says and I laugh, giving him a high-five. "Which means I punch Chris."

"No way in hell." Chris says and I laugh even louder.

"Okay, then, we can do small scenes throughout the seasons. And just to make facts clear, Lorelai is badass, she doesn't need a man, so I am not kissing anyone." I grin and Rose looks relieved. Oh geez, I wonder why.

"Fair enough." Chris nods.

"Okay, so can we do that scene in the Luke's diner when Lorelai, Rory and Christopher have breakfast together and then Emily calls up?"

"Be a little more specific." Evan says so I roll my eyes and play the scene on the television.

Everyone gathers around and takes a seat while we watch the scene together. As soon as Emily starts speaking, Jordan glares at me, "I am playing that?" He asks and I laugh, nodding.

"Well, at least Christopher is good looking." Chris says, smirking.

"She loves Luke more." Breanna adds with a grin and Evan laughs.

We watch the scene but then it keeps playing, and by the end of it, Sawyer is playing the next episode. I want to point out that we are actually supposed to play these characters but everyone looks so engrossed in watching it that I don't say a word. In fact, a small smile takes over my features as I look at everyone and when my eyes on Evan, he's already looking at me and smiling, like he's thinking the same thing I am.

The power of Gilmore Girls is that it brings everyone together.

"Can someone make popcorn?" I hear Luke say and I laugh, standing up to go to the kitchen.

From the corner of my eye I notice Jordan leaning his head on Sawyer's shoulder and a knowing smile takes over my face as I make my way to the kitchen. I feel someone's presence behind me to notice that Chris is following me. He gives me a small smile as I put the bowl in oven.

"So, are you having a nice birthday?" He asks, leaning on the kitchen island.

I turn to him with a smile, "I think this is the best I could ask for." I tell him honestly and he nods.

He moves to open the fridge and gets out a box and I frown. "What is this?" I ask as he places it in front of me.

"Your birthday gift." He says. "Open it."

So, with curiosity, I open the lid of the box and immediately gasp, "Shit! You got me an actual jelly cake." I laugh and stare at the colorful jelly cake in front of me.

"You asked for it." He shrugs.

"I have been asking for it from years, Jay. No one got me any, they thought I was kidding. Shit, this is the best. Does anyone else know?" I ask and he shakes his head.

"No one except Jordan." He smiles at me.

"God, I'm going to cut this in front of you but I am eating this when everyone leaves. There's no way in hell I am sharing this." I say and he laughs.

"Honestly, it wasn't easily available but the look on your face was worth the efforts." He smiles at me, a genuine smile which makes me want to throw my arms around him but his words come to my mind so I resist myself and offer him a smile.

"Thanks, Jay. It means a lot to me." I tell him before turning to get a butter knife to cut it.

He slowly sings the Happy Birthday song to me and I can't help the smile on my face as I hear him sing. He's not bad, and I laugh as I go on to feed him the cake but its so jello that I almost drop it on the kitchen counter. His hands move to my wrist and he wraps his lips lips around my fingers that are holding the jelly.

The warmth of his tongue immediately sends a feeling of fire through my skin as I feel tingles to the core of my cells. He stares in my eyes and I feel like I am in a trance as I stare back at him, my lips parted.

"Popcorn!" I hear Breanna call from the living room and immediately retract my hand to myself.

After having one spoon, I close the lid of the cake and keep it at the back of the fridge. I take out the popcorn from the oven and look back at Chris, "You coming?" I ask him and he seems to snap out of his thoughts.

"Yeah." He nods.

We make our way to the living room and I give them the two bowls which they circulate amongst themselves.

"Okay, so give us the back story here. Who is in love with who?" Rose asks, obviously interested.

"Babe, look, Lorelai was sixteen when she got pregnant with Rory, and Christopher was the father. But then, they moved to this town and it's pretty nice because everyone knows everyone." Evan says.

I shake my head, "You didn't answer her question, idiot. So, Christopher and Lorelai were in love, and he asked to marry her but they were so young, she obviously declined. But then she moves to this town, and she has a weird friendship with Luke. But it's obvious from the beginning that he feels something for her. Whenever she's dating someone, he's clearly jealous. But they don't date until very later.

"Also, Christopher kind of comes back in her life, and they try to make it work, but it doesn't. They obviously love each other, but it never works between them. They even get married, which ends up in a divorce." I explain.

"What? She married Christopher?" Breanna asks, obviously pissed that I gave her a spoiler because she hasn't watched that yet.

"Okay, so Luke finds out that he has a daughter a little after Lorelai asks him for marriage and he agrees, duh. But when the daughter comes along, his focus shifts to her and he starts postponing the wedding a lot. Lorelai gets pissed and gives him an ultimatum to either marry her or not, and he obviously doesn't gives her a satisfactory answer, especially because she asks him to elope which they had talked about in the past. So the stupid woman goes and sleeps with Christopher. The worst part? Luke shows up a few days later with his trunk full of equipment and whole plan to elope, only to find out what she did. Poor baby." I pout and everyone just stares at me.

"Guys, she's normal, I promise. She just loves Luke more than she should." Evan announces and I glare at him.

"The man loves her from fucking six years, Evan! Come on!" I whine and Chris gives me a small smile, as if indicating something but I totally miss it.

"We get it. You relate to him." Breanna whispers and I widen my eyes.

Holy fuck.

Am I Luke?

Shit.

"He marries her in the end, doesn't he?" Chris asks and I nod, but immediately know that the difference between Luke and I is that, he got his love, I would never get mine.
