Well here it is something you never saw from me I fic that has Jess Mariano in a good light that doesn't get him locked in a bad apartment, or leaving Rory in shame on a bus. Although, It Happened One Night I had him as sympathetic as I could do. Anyway, in this story is not a Lit but it gives him a happy ending and acceptance. Inspired by a few Logan is accepting of Rory is with Jess stories. As if, Logan could never accept it and if Rory was really in love with Jess the whole time she was with Logan than he deserves better. I'm not going to have this story betaed because well I really don't care about Jess to have his thoughts be coherent, and clear. However, if anybody wants to go ahead, and pm me.
This Fic is set in the time period of Valentine's Day first, or the present period of the story for those who read it. Although with the character from Gossip girl you have to pretend the drama this season happened a while back than the Gossip Girl timeline. I just think her and Jess will be perfect for each other. You just have to read and see.
January, 11, 2009
It was typical morning for Jess Mariano, he was drinking coffee reading waiting for his girlfriend to come and bring him bagels. It was morning like these when Jess's felt the joy of being his own boss being able to come to work during the time he wanted. Reading and editing books, he never knew he could make his lifelong hobby into a career choice. He didn't think he would get their when he was seventeen when his lifelong dream was to live like one of those country songs that he really loved to mock. To go from place to place in an old car with a blue eyed brown eyed girl from Stars Hollow. Jess couldn't believe that sometimes he still had that same pain when thinking about Rory. He swore himself to be over her the summer of 2007 when Luke had told him that Rory and Logan had broken up, and that Rory following Barack Obama Jess was overcome with joy. Obama had spent a vast amount of time in Philly trying to beat Hillary. He expected Rory to come to his door step telling him, she was sorry for the way she used him at Truncheon in the spring of 2006. She would also tell him that she had seen the error of her ways, and that Logan was a rich jerk. However, neither the phone nor the doorbell had rung from her. His roommates had teased him by how edgy he got, and told him to get over her. Finally, Jess had decided to go and seek her out when he had heard Obama was giving a speech in Downtown Philadelphia. He saw her there looking beautiful in a red summer sundress, but then he noticed her eyes were sad and only looking at her notes. He could tell that her mind was still on Logan, and if he went to her he could see it would have been a repeat of Truncheon. He decided now was not the time to go after Rory, so he poured himself into his work. Tried not to think too much about Rory, and when Luke had called him in August 2009, and told him Rory and Logan were engaged Jess knew that any hope was futile. What bothered Jess most of all was the excited tone in his voice, although he could tell that Luke was trying to hide it for his sake. However, he could tell that Luke had grown to love Rory/Logan, and to believe they were good for each other. So much for family loyalty.
Jess shrugged, as he started to open his paper. He really shouldn't think about Rory he'd managed to meet someone smart and well read. Someone who hated high society in the way he did, for she had witnessed it in New York. Unlike, Rory who would always be a part of it given her grandparents, and work. He had met her when she needed a part time job after she transferred to the University of Pennsylvania after a falling out with her friends last December. She had worked at Truncheon, and after a few slow dates the two of them developed a really good rhythm. A year later and things were going really good. He was able to confide in her about Rory, and she was able to confide about her two serious boyfriends Nate, and Dan. They had a lot more in common than he and Rory had, they both liked to be alone and mock people. While Rory had like to mock and be alone, she still had qualities of a social butterfly, which Jess could never be a part of. He still couldn't go to a lot of town events, and parties without sulking. Jess had discovered what it was like to be in an adult relationship, which he hadn't been with Rory. She also liked art and documentaries a lot more than Rory did. Through, her he was able to communicate with her during their relationship, unlike with Rory whose communication problems cost him their relationship. He was able to meet her parents without scowling or with a black eye, unlike his encounters with Rory's family. She had met Luke, Liz, and T.J and they all were very fond of her, where as with the exception of Luke Rory had never met his mother as his girlfriend. He felt that he was with a person, and not a dream girl in which he created in Rory.
Jess started to get into his paper, he couldn't he had spent a morning thinking about his past. He had browsed carefully through the news, and some book and movie reviews, finally he looked at the wedding and engagement page his girlfriend had loved mocking the high society couples in the New York Times. However, under the caption he had seen something that didn't put him in a mocking girl. In the very middle was the biggest engagement picture of his past dream girl, and the guy he hated more than anything. The Captain read something along the line of "Young Entrepreneur to young journalist" the blurb read something along the lines of Logan's Huntzburger connection, and how he'd been able to find success on his own. The article also talked about how Rory was from a well connected family as well. Jess guessed that the article was written by the one and only Emily Gilmore, he hated to think about the smile and approval on her face when she looked at Rory and Logan; where as he remembered her look of disapproval when he came with a black eye. Oh, the things he should have done differently in that relationship kept piling up. However, what bothered Jess most of all was the smile Rory had when Logan's arm was around her, at the party where it seemed the picture had shot. He could handle Rory being in a relationship with someone else, but he couldn't grasp the fact that she was that happy with someone else. He had never seen Rory smile like that the entire time they had been together, even before all the bad stuff had happened. Granted, he never seen Rory with Dean that happy either. He felt bad that he had never been able to make Rory that happy to never show her the affection Logan did, for he noticed how Logan had securely put his arm around her. In their relationship they mostly made out, and occasionally held hands. However, they never snuggled, hugged, or even slow dance together. He bet from the picture Rory and Logan shared a bunch of those. He also remembered all the times he and his now girlfriend had snuggled by the T.V and fallen asleep together how it was an intimacy never shared by anyone. He also remembered the first hug they shared before they were going out when she found out her ex Dan had gotten back together with the girl she hated Serena Van Der Woodson. The feeling was safe, and sweet. He and Rory had been passionate, but they had never been sweet. He also found himself smiling in the way he was with his new girlfriend that he had never been with Rory. Suddenly, the captain in the paper stopped hurting him. "Oh my god…" A voice told from behind him.
Jess turned and standing before him was his girlfriend Vanessa Abrams with a look of anger on her face. "V look it's not what it looks like…" He knew she was sensitive to Rory.
"Oh please, Jess just break up with me now. I can't tell you how many times I was with someone who in the end wanted someone else. Nate eventually wanted Blair instead of me, Dan wanted Serena, and Scott wanted the whole Humphrey family. Now you want Rory Gilmore another freaking society girl who even when she is with someone else men pine for her. Just dump me now, "
Jess hated himself for making her feel so bad about herself, especially when he knew now that she was the one she wanted. "Vanessa, yes I was feeling bit nostalgia about Rory, but unlike those other guys what I felt for Rory is a fantasy, but what I feel with you is real."
"Dan said something similar…" Vanessa shrugged.
"Yeah but look at how happy she was with him…" Jess pointed to the picture…" the two of us were never that happy together, but you and I we have that happiness. I might have known Rory's birthday we never spent one together, where as you and I spent one. We shared conversations deeper than the ones Rory and I had. We are both adults, where as Rory and I were just kids. I love you, and if you and Rory were both in a crowded room I would pick you."
"Really, "Vanessa eyes shown with happiness. "And as long as were confessing you mean more to me than those other guys, and any other guy in my life."
"God when did we start being cheesy,"
"I guess were growing up, and lack of food been driving us out of creativity. "
"Well let's eat,"
"But first" Then they both shared a passionate kiss as to people in an adult relationship do.
There you have it my least favorite characters of two GG found their way to each other. Sorry this is like my worst written story, but it's hard when you're not passionate about both characters.
