Rory stood in the small intimated foyer, a glass of wine in held lightly in her hand. As she looked around the room and watched her colleagues enjoying themselves, she couldn't help but wonder that she was going to miss them.
Mike had surprised her with an extra special leaving party after one of the campaign speeches, looking over she saw him glance her way, raising her glass she smiled before taking a sip.
This was it she was finally going to Philadelphia to be with Jess, her bags were already packed. Mike nudges her shoulder and grinned.
"Pretty cool, huh?'
"Yes very cool Mike, thank you." Rory touched his arm.
"No trouble, I'm just happy we could give you a proper send off. I still can't believe you're going" Mike sighed and looked over at his colleagues laughing. The cell phone in Rory's hand began to vibrate; they both looked at the phone. Rory opened the phone and answered it, glancing at Mike who raised his eyebrows.
"I haven't even left yet and you're already checking up on me."
"I am not checking up on you, I just need some sort of time frame so that I can plan and ravish you." Rory giggled and blushed; Mike held up his hands and backed away playfully.
"I can't wait to be there, it feels like I haven't seen you in ages."
"You haven't eight weeks is a very long time." Rory nodded silently.
A courier opened the door and scanned the crowd, a large arrangement of roses held in his hands.
"Oh those are for me I told that damn president, I would give him my answer soon." Mike shouted above the noise, causing everyone to laugh. The courier gave him an annoyed look and he cleared his throat and looked at the clipboard.
Mike turned to Rory who was still on her cell, signing the order he took the arrangement from his hands and made his way towards Rory.
"Fair lady, someone likes you." Mike held out the flowers.
"Oh my god, are those for me?" Rory asked putting down her glass on a nearby table.
"What's going on?" Jess queried.
"Someone just sent me flowers." Rory lifted the phone higher to her ear.
"Flowers huh? Is there something you want to tell me?"
"Jess, I honestly don't know who they're from." Rory looked in the arrangement and picked up the card that was lying there.
'Soon you'll be all mine'
Love Jess
Rory gasped and held the card to her chest, looking at the dozen long stemmed roses.
"Jess Mariano." He heard her stern voice over the line and grinned against the phone.
"You like them?"
"I love them." Rory leant forward and inhaled the sweet scent of the flowers.
"Rory? Here" Mike handed her the velvet box that was in the roses.
Rory carefully took the box from Mike's hand, slowly opening to see what was inside.
"A key?" She took it from inside the box.
"Yes a key for our apartment." Jess waited and heard nothing but silence on the other end of the phone. "Too much?"
"No, not too much. Just, I'm adjusting."
Jess sat at the large window in his apartment looking out into the street below, he was eager to have Rory live with him. They would find places to read while going to her favorite coffee house, or just spend a lazy day glancing at each other.
"You are aware of how serious I am?"
"I'm beginning to; I'm serious about this too."
"Good." Jess sighed and moved from the window to sit on the couch.
"Hey how did you know I'd be here you know for the delivery?" Rory enquired.
"Ah well you see, I have my ways, plus I have an insider there."
"I love you."
Jess smiled against the phone.
"I'm never gonna get tired of you saying, but I do love you." Rory looked up to see Mike making gagging noises, smacking him lightly as he passed her drink back to her.
"Okay well I have to get back, work is a calling." Rory took a sip of her drink.
"Okay bye." Jess closed the phone and smiled as he threw it on the couch.
"You two are becoming highly nauseous you know that, and I can't believe he still doesn't know you're going to surprise him."
"Nope it's all part of my evil plan, I'm glad I got the key. Didn't fancy, banging on his door at 3 in the morning."
Rory placed the key quietly in the lock and turned the handle, she placed her suitcase on the floor next to the couch. Slipping her shoes off and leaving them next to her suitcase, she padded through the apartment. Opening the bedroom door carefully she watched him snore lightly, the light of the moon illuminating his bare back.
Stepping further into the bedroom she unclipped her hair letting it fall around her shoulders, removing her clothes and placing them on the chair in the corner of the bedroom.
Slipping into the bed beside him Rory watched him sleep his hair falling across his forehead; brushing the hair away from his head she kissed him on the cheek.
Jess mumbled when he felt the soft touch on his cheek, nestling further into the pillows.
"Jess, wake up." Rory leaned forward and whispered into his ear, and kissing his lobe.
Rory frowned, finding waking up Jess more difficult than she anticipated. Smiling to herself she leaned closer and kissed his lips, her tongue tracing the bottom pillow of his lip. Jess felt lips pressing against his own, nervous kisses.
"Rory." He mumbled his eyes slowly opening.
"Surprise." She whispered as he woke up.
"Rory! Your here." Jess grinned and grabbed Rory closer kissing the laughter from her mouth.
"I missed you, in fact I'm willing to ignore the fact that you lied to me." Jess raised his eyebrow and Rory laid down next to him.
"Oh shush. You love it; I need a shower after all that travelling." Rory climbed out of the bed, and padded around the bedroom towards the door.
Jess followed her every step as she left the bedroom, the sway of her hips enticing him. Pulling back the covers he jumped out of the bed, Rory's giggles heard throughout the apartment.
Rory sat up in bed watching Jess getting ready; buttoning his shirt he looked over and smirked.
"I can see that dirty look in your eye Gilmore."
"Me! I'll have you know I was thinking of what to have for breakfast." Rory tapped her finger against her chin.
"Huh." Jess turned around and sat on the edge of the bed, brushing the hair away from her face.
"You still gonna come into the bookstore?"
"Yep, now that I'm sleeping with the co-owner I was actually hoping to get a discount or maybe even special credit." Jess smiled and kissed her forehead.
"I'm sure we can organize a repayment plan."
Rory smiled up at him and kissed him, he moved to break the kiss but Rory placed her arms around his neck. He moved to stand up and she grabbed him by the wrist pulling him back onto the bed for another kiss.
"I have to get to the bookstore." He mumbled against her lips.
Rory took the opportunity and gently forced her tongue into his mouth, closing his eyes Jess knelt back onto the bed.
"Alright, ten more minutes." He reluctantly agreed.
