Their happily ever after (finally)
A/N: Hey guys. Just wanted to say that this is my first story I've ever written. I hope you like it!
Chapter One:
When Luke threw Jess out after finding out about him failing, Jess had no idea where he would go. He had no friends in town, except for Rory. He never bothered because he didn't like anyone here and he didn't think he'd be here for long. Rory was the only person he ever cared about besides Luke, though we would never admit it. When he left Luke's, we went wandering around town thinking about how to solve his problems. He eventually made it to the bridge, and he just sat there reading to get his mind off of everything until he heard someone walk up behind him. He knew who it was before he turned around, just like any other time she was around. There was just a feeling he got anytime he saw her, heard her name, or thought about her. He would never tell Rory or anyone for that matter. It would be horrible for his reputation.
When Rory walked up to him, she just sat down beside him and read with him for awhile. They sat in a comfortable silence, until he finally decided he should tell her everything. It's the least he could do because of what he did at Kyle's party. He was in such a bad mood that night. He found out earlier that day at school that he wouldn't graduate. He missed too many days at school because he skipped to go to Wal-mart. He really wanted to skip the party but he promised Rory they'd go so he went anyway. He probably would've had a good time if he hadn't been feeling so lousy lately. He ended up going upstairs to get away from everything but Rory had followed him. She tried to make him feel better but it didn't work. And then she kissed him.
He always loved kissing her and it felt like fireworks were going off. They soon fell onto the bed. He knew they shouldn't do this in a random bedroom at a party, but he didn't care at the moment. All he knew was that Rory was in there with him and that he wanted to escape from his troubles for awhile. Sex was the only thing that came to mind at the moment. Everything was going fine at first until Rory started pushing Jess away. Jess didn't care; he just kept kissing her. Rory finally pushed him away and Jess got so mad. Rory just said "I don't know what I did" before running out of the room. Too late, Jess said "You didn't do anything" and ran after her just to see her with Dean. He was so mad that she went running to Dean. He pushed past them so that he could leave but Dean grabbed him and punched him. Everything after that was just a blur.
Sitting on the bridge with her now, he regretted everything that happened that night. He couldn't believe he did that to Rory, the girl of his dreams. After a few moments of silence, he started explaining everything. He told her about him skipping school to get more hours at Wal-mart, him finding out about not graduating, he explained about the party and apologized over and over again, about how his father who he hadn't seen since he was born came to see him, and finally he told her that Luke kicked him out and that he had nowhere to go. After he told her all of this, it felt like a weight had been lifted off his shoulders. He had no idea how Rory would take this news, but no matter what, he knew that he wouldn't regret it. Jess was shocked when he heard what Rory said next.
"We can find a place and move in together. I mean, if you want to?"
"W-What?"
"I mean, we could find a place together here in town. You have your job at Wal-mart and I can find one for after school or weekends or something. I'm sure Taylor will give me a job somewhere. I'm the town princess, right? If I can't find a job, then who can? And if you want to, you could go get your GED. I'm not gonna force you or anything, but I think it would be a good idea." Rory rambled on.
"But what about school, and Yale? I'm not going to keep you from your dream from being the next Christiane Amanpour. I don't want to be that guy. I won't be that guy. To be honest with you for once, I was thinking about leaving Stars Hollow for awhile. Maybe go to California and stay with my dad for awhile. I've just been thinking about it a little bit, I haven't decided on anything yet. But I do need to decide soon."
"What? You'd leave me and go to California and get a whole new life over there. And then, what? I might never see you again..." she kept rambling on about her fears of him leaving. She thought that if he went to California, she'd never see him again and he'd meet someone he likes better than her. There must be plenty of girls over there that are so much prettier than me. It wouldn't be hard for him to get over me with all those girls around.
"Whoa, Whoa, Whoa Rory. Calm down. I didn't say I was for sure leaving. It was just an idea. I'd never want to leave you. You're the best thing that's ever happened to me. I love you so much. It would kill me to leave you. I'd only do it if it was for the best."
"Hold on. Y-You love me?"
"Yeah. I have since the day I've met you. And yes, I know I sound really sappy right now. But yeah I love you. If I didn't, do you think I would have came back from New York and stayed all of this time. And don't just think that I say 'I love you' to just about anyone cause I don't. And you don't have to say it back if you don't want to cause..." Jess was cut off when all of a sudden Rory crashes her lips against Jess'. It was such a passionate kiss, and when they pulled apart for breath, Rory said three little words that put such a big smile, a real one, on Jess' face.
"I love you too!"
