The next morning Rory and Lorelai are headed for Luke's as usual
Rory: so what do you want to have today?
Lorelai: Coffee…
R: I meant food…
L: How bout you get eggs and bacon… and I get pancakes and French toast!..
R: it sounds delicious but aren't you afraid we might not be able to move after that? Why the sudden food fest?
L: Cause I want eggs and pancakes and I cant order them in one dish without looking like a pig… this way we can share and I get both! Besides.. you like bacon and French toast..
R: why aren't we the hungry one today..
L: Not hungry really… just want variety!
R: Fine.. but if I cant move you are paying luke to carry me home.. Luke!
Luke: Good morning.. so coffee… and?
L: Eggs with a side of bacon and pancakes with French toast!
Luke: And rory?
L: Very funny..
Luke: What?
L: you think I would eat that all by myself?
Luke: Have you seen yourself eat?
L: Point taken…
(Luke leaves to order)
L: So… what do you have planned today?
R: I dunno… probably spend the day with dean I guess..
L: Did you get him anything?
R: Huh?
L: He got you that ring.. did you get…
R: Yeah.. I gave him a book..
L: A book… for your 1 year anniversary?
R: Yes a book.. he needs to read more.. that way I can talk to him about books! And not just have him stare at me when I start talking about a book.. I mean.. Dean doesn't know much about books.. not like jess..(change of expression on Lorelai's face) erm..
L: Ah… Jess..
J: Hey you talking about me?
R: Oh… hey jess.. not really.. just telling my mom that you read… a lot..
J: Ok… so you ordered yet?
R: Yeah..
J: Listen.. can I talk to you..
R: Now?
J: Yeah…
R: Sure…Be back soon mom..
L: Alright babe.. but im warning you.. if your not down in ten minutes I'm eating all of the food.. and you will be responsible for carrying me to the inn..
R: I consider myself warned..
(she and jess head upstairs to luke's apartment)
R: so.. what is it?
J: I wanted to tell you that I'm sorry.. for yesterday.. I didn't mean to talk to you like that.. its just that… look rory.. I think you know that I like u.. a lot… and I just don't understand why your still with dean! I mean.. yo kissed me and despite what you say I know you felt it too.. you felt that it was right.. I know you did..
R: No…
J: Yes you did.. rory.. look me in the eyes and tell me you didn't..
(rory keeps quiet)
J: see.. I knew it..
R: jess.. I can't.. Dean loves me.. and (unconvincingly) I love him too…
J: Look.. im not gonna be here forever.. and im not waiting for you… not anymore..
R: jess…
J: look… just go.. go back to dean and forget about me alright.. im done..
(opens the door for her to leave)
(rory looks sad and leaves the apartment, when she goes down dean is there)
D: hey.. is anything wrong?
R: No..
D: What were you doing up there?
R: Jess just wanted to show me a book..
D: (unconvinced but decides not to question her further) come eat..
R: I'm not that hungry… mom.. I'm gonna go back home for awhile alright.. Dean.. I'll see you for dinner later..
D: Ok.. you sure your alright..
R: I'm sure..
(Rory walk out of the diner and rushes home feeling like she could burst into tears any moment, she reaches home and lies on her bed and cries.. she felt like she just made the biggest mistake of her life)
(That evening at dinner with Dean at the gazebo)
D: some thing seems to be bothering you.. is it jess again..
R: (uncomfortable) no…
D: rory… is there something going on between you and..
R: dean.. would you stop being so suspicious of me? a relationship is based on trust and you obviously don't trust me!
D: Well how am I suppose to? Every other time you're away from me you're with him! and I see the way you light up when you see him! I used to make you light up like that! What happened Rory? What happened to us?
R: I don't know dean..
D: Do you love me or not?
R: i…(looks at the promise ring dean gave her)
D: that says it all.. I gotta go…
R: dean.. no… no.. im sorry… I do… I love u..
D: Damn it if that were true.. you wouldn't have taken so long to say it.. I'm leaving..
R: Dean!
(Jess walks past the gazebo and sees Rory crying)
J: What wrong?
R: Nothing..
J: Nothing? Cmon.. ive known you 6 months and you still think that telling me nothing is gonna work?
R: I can hope can I…
J: Ah… so there is something wrong..
R: Look.. just leave me alone alright?
J: No way.. I know you.. and I know that even if you say you want me to go u dun really mean it..
R: No.. you don't know me..
J: Yes I do!
R: Look.. I'm telling you now… that I dun want to talk to anybody! Especially not you!.. so just stop interfering and concentrate on your own life..
J: Rory…
R: I said go!
J: Fine..
(walks off)
R: jess…
(Rory sits and cries…)

L: Luke found you.. asleep in the gazebo? He drove you back here..
R: And I slept through that? Why didn't he wake me?
L: Him and what army? what happened yesterday?
R: Um.. nothing.. guess I was just tired..
L: Yeah.. (Lorelai knew there was more but didn't want to pry) so what do you wanna do today? Breakfast at Luke's? Or you could just hang out here if you dun feel like going out..
R: Yeah.. I think I'll just hang out.. I'll order food myself… Kinda feel like an assortment of Chinese, Indian and pizza today..
L: Ooh.. you're making me want to stay at home..
R: I wouldn't mind if you did..
L: I'm sorry hun.. I can't.. I gotta work.. the inn is having a wedding there tomorrow.. busy busy..
R: Well.. do you need me to help?
L: No.. that's ok.. You just do what you need to do.. I'll be fine!
R: You sure? Cause I could help.. keeping busy would be a good thing…
L: don't you remember, dean will be there helpin… you were the one who helped me convinced him to help..
R: Oh.. ok..so you know huh?
L: Luke said he saw dean leave you in a huff.. so I assumed..
R: sigh… mom.. do you think I should go talk to him?
L: I don't know… I don't think I'm at liberty to tell you what you should do.. but.. just make sure that if you do talk to him.. you do it when your calm and thinking clearly.. not in a fit of emotions like last time.. so you wont say things u might regret later..
R: Yeah.. I got that…
L: Well.. I got to go.. call if you need anything alright.. (hugs)
R: I will.. (Looks around room then looks at the ring on her finger and goes back to bed covering her face with blanket..)
