"Rory!" Roger, the movie producer, called out to Rory who was sitting at a table with 2 other writers

"Yeah?" Rory looked up from what she was doing

"We're starting auditions tomorrow, and we want you to be there" he told her

"Why?"

"It's your movie. You should be part of the decision making"

"But I don't know anything about acting"

"Doesn't matter" Roger said "you'll know who you like and who you don't"

"Ok" Rory nodded "just let me know when to be here"

=================================

"Hey" Logan said when Rory got home and walked into the living room, where Logan was sitting on the couch, working on his laptop

"Hi" she leaned down to kiss him before sitting next to him

Logan glanced at the clock, 12:36am. "You're home late"

"I know" Rory sighed and leaned her head on Logan's shoulder and he put his laptop on the coffee table wrapped his arm around her "but we pretty much have a final screenplay"

"That's great!"

"Yeah" Rory nodded "what are you doing?"

"Emails"

"Don't forget we have Lena's soccer game, tomorrow night" Rory said

"What time do we need to leave?"

"Around 3"

December 15th

"Why are we doing this on the bus?" Lena asked as Sarah Dutch braided her hair for the game

"Saves time later" Sarah said "god, why is your hair so long?"

"I've only ever had it cut once"

"Are you serious?"

"Mhmm"

"So this is like your baby hair?"

"I guess" Lena chuckled

"Listen up!" The coach said "we'll be there in about an hour. We're going straight to the stadium so make sure you're ready"

"You ever play against Penn state?" Lena asked

"Last year" Sarah said

"It was great" Andrea chimed in "be beat them 3-0" 

"I'm done" Sarah said and patted Lena's shoulder

"Turn around, I'll do you"

=================================

"Hey there" Logan walked up behind Lena as she was warming up before the game

"Dad!" Lena turned around and hugged him

"I missed you" Logan said and kissed the top of her head before letting go of the hug

"I missed you too" Lena said "Is mom here?"

Logan pointed to where Rory was sitting in the audience and they made their way over to her

"Oh, my baby, I missed you" Rory said and hugged Lena tight

"Mom, I haven't been a baby in a really long time"

"Shush you" Rory chuckled

"How were the auditions?" Lena asked
