Rory smiles as she looks over the invitation one more time while in her seat. She awaits the award ceremony to start as always she was one of the first people. She anxious to see if she wins any of the categories, this was her fifth year working for the New York Times. And the first year to ever be nominated. After a while the room started to fill up with more guests, her sit was between two chubby bald old men. That kept talking about how writing was so much better in the past because there was still freedom of speech.
The ceremony started with authors. On stage was a blonde woman and she started announcing the next award "This award is for a man who was born and raised in New York and has started his series "The Subsect" and it has caught a lot of attention." Rory looked up that was Jess book, she remembered because she had read it almost a million times. 'A series?' She thought, she only knew of one book. The host continued "We would like to honor him with best upcoming series and an author to watch out for JESS MARIANO." Every one clapped, except Rory who has holding onto her purse tight. Jess was here, Jess was here and he is an author. Her head felt like it was going to explode. Then he starts talking, "I just want say Thanks" and he walked off stage. The host continues with saying "An author with few little words" she laughs. Rory's eyes follow Jess; he sits next to a woman. She is beautiful brunette with long legs and a short dress. She kept talking the whole night and Jess would just smirk. That smirk was hers now. Not Rory's. Rory thought that is probably his new girlfriend. His series probably continued being dedicated to her not Rory. Rory thoughts were interrupted when she heard her name on stage. "To best female writer of the year Lorelai Leigh Gilmore." Rory walks up to stage she is shaking because she is nervous. She had never been nervous to be on stage but this time Jess was in the audience. She starts talking "I would like to say Thank you to the times for giving an opportunity to write and thank you to my mom for helping pursue my dream as a writer and um.. Thank you to this ceremony for presenting with the award. Thank you." As she walks away she sneaks a peek at Jess who is now staring at her.
At the reception, Rory is staring at all the food. There is a bunch of Gilmore elder approved food. Though Rory should be used to the food, she still would much rather have a burger than crab cakes. She is startled by a voice "Hey Gilmore." "Jess" she says. "We should really stop meeting by surprise, so best female writer?" he smirks at her. She smiles back and says, "You wrote a series? Why didn't you tell me anything?" "Well I can't personally deliver every book I write." He jokes. Rory chuckles, she checks him out while he is explaining what his series is about. He is wearing a black suit with a white shirt. No tie of course, the Jess she knew was still in there. He had a clean shaven face and his black hair was slicked back. 'He looked good' she thought.
"…So Lorelai Leigh Gilmore, paper didn't let you put your nickname?" he asked.
She responded, "No they said either put your full name or be under unknown. Um… seems like your date is flirting with another guy" she point back at the brunette who is laughing with another man.
"My date? That's Pat she is what you would call an Editor in Chief at the Publisher I work for in New York. She insisted on coming so she could find 'new talent' she is probably replacing me right now with that guy as we speak. Where is blondie?"
"Luke didn't tell you we broke up?"
"Your mom doesn't allow him to tell me much about you, trust me I've tried" He smirks.
"Well he asked me to get married but I didn't want to live in California"
"Your dream was bigger than him."
She smiles, "I guess so you live in New York now?" She asks.
"It kept calling my name; actually I know a place that sells pretty decent burgers. Want to ditch this place?" He asks. She nods, they walk past the crowd.
As they walk towards the bar, he can't stop looking at her. She is wearing a blue dress that hugs her waist.
"So I see your still rocking the bangs?" He says admiring her hair.
"Well writers don't have a lot of time to think about their hair, I just kind of do the same haircut"
"Well it suits you Gilmore" He smiles.
They arrive to JOES BAR/GRILL. They sit at a table and Jess calls out to Joe "A beer and…what did you want?"
"A beer is fine"
"Two beers Joe"
Joe arrives with one beer and a huge bowl that has a beer in it. "I thought your lady friend would much rather a margarita with beer in it." He walks away.
"He isn't sexist, he just kind of gives out whatever he wants. Did you want a burger? "Jess asks.
After a couple of drinks they were leaving Joes.
"Let me get you a cab. Where do you live?" Jess asks Rory who seems like she is drunk. Stumbling all over the place, Rory didn't mean to get drunk. But she didn't know how to get over the nerves of being in front of Jess. So the alcohol made her more relaxed and the more relaxed she got the drunker.
"I don't remember where I live." She started freaking out.
Jess hails a cab and he directs them to his apartment. "We will go to mine until you sober up to remember." When he looks down at her, her head had already fallen asleep on his shoulder. Once the cab driver dropped them off, he carried her to his apartment. Rory wakes up while he is climbing the stairs to his apartment, they get to the door. She states "It's like it's our wedding day and your carrying me" He looks at her and smiles. He puts her down when they reach the front door. He opens the door and the apartment is huge. He has a dining room table, couches with flat screen television and surround sound. "Wow Jess your place is amazing." "Thanks" he looks at the floor, shyly. He leads her to the bedroom "You can sleep here if you like, I'll be in the living room." He begins to leave the room. When Rory kisses him, she leads him onto his bed. Jess keeps his hand on her hips but Rory's hands are running all over his body. She squeezes the back of his neck and Jess finally stops resisting and copes a feel on her boobs. She starts unbuttons his shirt and he slides the zipper down her dress.
Jess looks over at Rory; she finally fell asleep after three times. He can't stop staring at how beautiful she is and he doesn't want this moment to end. He finally cuddles into bed with her and falls asleep.
Rory wakes up to the smell of coffee. Her head is killing her and she somehow is wearing Jess white button up shirt. Clips of last night come rushing over her like a Nicholas Sparks movie. They did it, after so many years. She walks around the apartment looking for Jess, she finds him in the kitchen with boxers on. He is making pancakes, he turns around. She sees his biceps, stomach, shoulders, god he is gorgeous. "Your awake, I made pancakes and coffee" She couldn't resist and she kissed him again. "Thank you," she says. They sit down and start eating. Jess finally breaks the silence "Rory I don't want this to be a one night thing, I think we should start seeing each other. How about a real date?" Rory smiles "Next Saturday?" He smiles back "It's a date"
