Molly dropped the envelope into the mailbox outside of the diner, her stomach dropping as she did so. She shook off the anxiety and went up the steps. Molly hadn't been surprised when Wyatt wasn't inside, instead she had been greeted by Luke."Was that a college application?" Luke asked the red head as she sat down. She hoped no one had seen her.
"Yeah." Molly forced a smile as he couldn't contain his own excitement.
"Where to?" He asked, gladly filling her up a cup of coffee.
"Um.." Molly hadn't told Wyatt where she had applied to.
"Alright, I get the superstitions." Luke chuckled when he realized she wasn't going to tell him yet. "I'm proud of you either way, kiddo. I know you'll do great." Luke handed her the cup, Molly now smiling for real.
"Thank you, Luke." Molly felt her cheeks heat up, "you're awfully sappy lately." She said, but she knew why he had been that way.
Molly tried her hardest not to think about it, the fact that in a few months time they would all be leaving for college. Wyatt's time felt the most limited, with the draft coming not long after graduation, they were all beginning to dread it. In fact, Luke had hired Wyatt an Agent to help with the offers he had been getting.
"Shouldn't you be getting to school?" Luke asked, trying to deter from thinking too much about it.
"Can I get breakfast too? Or do you want me to starve?" Molly joked, watching as he rolled his eyes, moving for the kitchen. "A donut is fine!" She called out, hearing a light scoff come from the man.
"If I'm responsible for your meals then I'm feeding you better than a donut." He retorted, and Molly was grateful the morning rush hadn't begun.
She drank her coffee as she waited for whatever he was making her. She could smell sausage and had seen him put bagel's in the toaster. Whatever it was going to be, she trusted that it would be good.
By the time he finished putting together the bagel sandwich with a sausage patty, egg and cream cheese, she had finished her coffee. Molly stared at the breakfast sandwich, knowing she wasn't going to be able to finish it.
"If you don't eat it all you have Wyatt in homeroom." He reminded her and she nodded, watching as he wrapped it in tinfoil before sticking it into a bag.
"Can I have a refill before I go?" She asked, opening her to-go cup that had nearly been emptied.
"You Gilmore girls need help." Luke sighed, grabbing the coffee pot and refill her cup. "Now get to school before you're late."
Molly met Mina outside of homeroom, the other girl frozen outside of the classroom. The red head pointed her attention to where Mina had been looking. Molly nearly dropped her coffee when she noticed Carter and Dean, laughing with each other.
