🍂 — pot roasts and surprise visits from your ex


















𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐈𝐑𝐒𝐓 𝐃𝐀𝐘 of school had finally ended, and Ivy felt a sense of liberation. She practically skipped out of her sixth-period class, humming a cheerful tune as she made her way to Luke's.

She wandered through the town, reaching the town square when she suddenly halted. Her eyes locked onto a boy in a green shirt walking in the opposite direction. She could hardly believe what she saw; the boy bore an uncanny resemblance to Jess.

But this was Stars Hollow, and the idea of Jess being here seemed implausible. Ivy dismissed the thought and continued on to meet her mother and sister, who were already leaving the diner as she caught up with them.

"You guys will not believe who I just saw," Ivy exclaimed. "Or rather, who I thought I saw."

"Who?" they asked in unison.

"I thought I saw my ex."

"Mo?" Rory guessed.

"No, not Mo."

"Eddie?" Lorelai inquired.

"No, Jess!" Ivy replied, exasperated. "The boy I was telling you about from New York."

"Your ex from New York is here?" Rory asked, surprised.

"Well, no. I thought I saw him, but it wasn't actually him."

"Then who was it?" Rory pressed.

"I don't know. Some guy."

"Speaking of Jesses, Luke's nephew arrived today," Lorelai mentioned casually.

"His name is Jess?" Ivy asked in disbelief, rolling her eyes. "Of course it is. The Jesses are coming back to haunt me."

"Not everything is about you, babe," Lorelai teased, patting her daughter on the shoulder.

Ivy pouted. "No, but I like to think it is."

"Anyways, I suggested that we throw him a little welcome party. At our place." Lorelai told them.

"Alright." The twins replied in unison. Lorelai stared at her daughters, weirded out by how in sync they were.

"You know, I'll never get used to that."

"It's your fault you had twins." Ivy mumbled.

"Well, I'm sorry I didn't choose to have only one fetus in my uterus!"

"Fetus' aren't in your uterus mom." stated Rory.

"I knew that."

"𝐎𝐎𝐇 𝐏𝐎𝐓 𝐑𝐎𝐀𝐒𝐓!" Ivy exclaimed as she entered the kitchen with her mother.

"See! People like pot roast!" Jackson shouted at Sookie, who responded with an annoyed look.

"Well, it definitely smells good," Lorelai remarked.

"It's the garlic."

"Three heads of it."

Ivy snickered, prompting Lorelai to gently tap her daughter's arm to stop her.

"I want everything to be perfect. We're going to make this kid think he died and went to heaven," Sookie declared.

Lorelai moved to the twins' room to get Rory, while Ivy approached Sookie's pot of food.

"One little taste test?" she pleaded.
