Chapter 41-Rory's Bachelorette Party

Rory and Karson arrived at the Crap Shack. Lorelai came rushing out before they could even get out of the cars. "Wait, don't get the boys out. Just get your bags. Luke is taking the boys to the amusement park in Hartford. He is picking up his 14-year-old niece Doula to go with him.

Rory got her bags out and kissed the boys. She told them to behave and mind Poppy. She asked Lorelai "What are the plans for tonight?" Lorelai laughed. "I'm not telling. I'm not telling" in a sing-song voice. "Mom, I need to know how to dress" Lorelai looked at her. "You will do it." And walked off. Karson was giggling on the porch.

About an hour later, Lorelai told Karson and Rory it was time to go. She handed Karson a blindfold to put on Rory. "No, I am not wearing a blindfold. Logan does that to me. I don't want to." She whined as Karson put the blindfold on her. They lead her out to Karson's jeep. Karson got behind the wheel and Lorelai got in the back seat with Rory so that she would not peek. They drove to Lane's house and stopped. Lane opened the front passenger door and got in. She was smiling. Karson told her to Shh. "You don't have to be quiet Lane; I know it's you." "Rory you are spoiling the fun," Lorelai said. Next, they stopped at Sookie's. She got in trying to be quiet but almost slammed the door on her hand. Rory smiled. She knew it was Sookie. She could smell the food on her. The next stop was the Dragonfly where a limo was waiting. "Okay, now you have me stumped. I'm not sure where we are." Lorelai said "shhh, just follow my instructions. Everyone opened the doors and got out and headed to the limo. Frank was there holding the door open. In the limo was Steph, Honor, Juliet, and April. When Rory got in and got seated, she said. "Are we in a limo? Who is in here with me?" The girls were giggling. "Come on, let me take the blindfold off." No, you can take the blindfold off when we get to our destination." The girls decided to play a game. Lorelai explained the rules. Each girl will say one word. Rory has to try to figure out who it is. Lorelai pointed to Steph. "Girly" Rory smiled. "Steph, I'm so glad you can come." Lorelai pointed at Juliet. "Food" "I'm not sure." Lorelai pointed to April. "sister" "April, glad you could come also." This continued until they got to the Martin Hotel. The girls helped Rory out. As she was getting out of the car Frank said. "Hope you have a good time tonight Ms. Rory." Rory turned around and said "Frank. Thank you. I do too."

When they entered the building, Steph was waiting by the elevator with the key to the penthouse. Courtesy of Finn. Paris met them in the lobby. "Can I take it off now?" "Just a few more minutes Rory," Paris said. "Paris, I didn't know you were here." "Where else would I be? I am your best friend. This is what best friends do. They entered the penthouse and guided Rory to a chair in the middle of the room. "This is your throne for the night. Have a seat. Okay ladies everyone gets ready." Lorelai instructed. All the girls went to the rack of boas and hats. They got their costume on. When they got to set, Lorelai tells Rory to remove her blindfold. After Rory's eye adjusted, she started laughing. Lorelai turned on the CD and the girls started dancing the Charleston. They all had on flapper dresses. Rory jumped up "Where is my costume?" Lane pointed to the rack next to the closet. Rory quickly put on her flapper dress and boa. The girls danced and drank and danced and drank. The room was full of snacks and finger foods. On one side of the room was an ice cream bar. They were all having a ball.

After about an hour, there was a knock on the door. Steph goes to answer it and it is the ladies for the Mani/Pedi and the massages. While they got set up the girls changed out of the flapper dresses into pajamas and robes. Everyone was drinking, eating, and having fun. About midnight there was another knock on the door. Lorelai tells Rory to answer. She answered the door and in walked a police officer. "Ma'am are you Rory Gilmore, future bride of Logan Huntzburger?" Rory was smiling "Yes, that's me" she stepped back to let him in the door and almost fell. "My name is Patrick. I am here to entertain you," Patrick said as he caught her. "Woah, don't fall." Rory was giggling so that Steph had to help her to her throne. Lane turned on the music and Patrick started dancing. "Is he going to strip?" Paris yelled. "Give me someone. Lorelai, where is my purse? Oh, I don't have any cash. Oh no, what am I going to do? Lane gives me someones. I want to see him strip." All the girls were hollering and yelling for Patrick to strip. Everyone was drunk or tipsy except for Steph. She was pregnant. Juliet was the only one that knew. She told Juliet so that she could help her hide it. Juliet had been switching out Steph's drinks all night. Steph just found out this week and didn't want to spoil Rory and Logan's thunder.

Patrick stripped, well not fully, but he did a dance taking most of his clothes off. Paris was poking ones in his G string. Rory was laughing so and mixed with her drinking, she could hardly stand up. All in all, the girls had a great time.

When Rory woke the next morning, she was in bed with Paris and Lane. Steph was on the sofa; Lorelai was on the floor under the sofa. Juliet was in the recliner. Honor was on the floor under the sink in the bathroom. April was in the bathtub. Rory sat up. Her head was hurting, and she didn't feel very good. She got up to go get an aspirin and some water when she found a note taped to the door. Ace, when you wake, call room service. They have tacos ready for you. Just call. I love you. Logan.

Rory stepped over Honor to wash her face. That is when she discovered April in the tub. She washed her face, waking up Honor, and then called room service. When room service got there with lots of coffee and tacos, the whole crew was awake, barely.
