Chapter 2:

Lorelai walked into the diner, she grinned as she was immediately greeted with a big cup of coffee. "Why is this for me?"

"Who else would it be for?"

"Maybe someone else was supposed to sit here." She watched as he moved, unsure of how they actually got to where they are.

"Lets see, give coffee to some random female or give coffee to my wife? I think I'll go with the second."

She grinned. "Why thank you kindly, I do need to get to the inn." She kissed him quickly over the counter then left the diner.

Jess shook his head as he watched her leave. He wasn't sure what to do today, he knew Rory had to work, or do something else. This was the first time he really took time from the Truncheon. He always dreamed of vacationing from there, as well as the city. He had no problems with the city, but some days you just need something else. He did not think he would end up in Stars Hollow. He felt a vibration as he turned back to his food. He pulled the phone out of his pocket and noticed a text from Rory. Want to meet for lunch? He read it and smiled a little. He hit the reply button and typed: Sounds good, where at?. He hit the send button and waited for a reply.

Rory looked at her article then looked back at her phone. When she saw his name pop up she tried not to smile much as she read the text. How does Plan B Burger Bar and Tavern sound? She hit send as she looked back at her article to put the finishing touches on it. She had always dreamed to be a big name writer, for a big name paper. She found plenty of satisfaction working at the Hartford Courant.

Jess's phone lit up as he climbed into his car. He looked at it and hit the reply button. Sounds good to me, noon work for you? He sent it and started the car. He needed to go shopping for somethings, especially if he was planning to stay any amount of time. He decided to come quickly, so he didn't grab much from his apartment above the Truncheon. He didn't think he would be staying. He would buy the things in town but he didn't want to deal with Doose if he could prevent it. Since Rory wanted to meet for lunch he figured he would just go to Hartford for his items.

Once he was finished he looked at the time. Noticing it was almost noon he looked on his phone to figure out where the place was. He wasn't familiar with Hartford, which would come in handy right now. As he pulled up and parked he noticed her car in a parking spot. He smiled, glad he wouldn't have to wait for her. He got out of his car and walked to the building. Once inside he looked around, smiling when he saw her at a table already.

"Hey!" She spoke the second he sat down.

"Hi," He chuckled lightly.

"How are you?" She asked after giving the server her drink order.

"I'm good," He smiled.

"How's the Truncheon?"

"It's great! I actually have a release party coming up, its another book of mine." He ordered his food as he watched her.

"You wrote another one?"

"Yes, Yes I did. Would you like to read it?" He knew she'd say yes.

"Of course! I still can't believe you are published. Not once but multiple times now! Jess this is great!"

They ate and talked, she told him about her time on the campaign trail with Obama, He told her about the Truncheon. She told him about her mom and Luke. They talked about random items as well, and the food they were eating. He had missed her, he never realized how much until now. He had no idea what would happen, but sitting here right now he was happy.

I always catch the clock it's 11:11

And now you want to talk

It's not hard to dream

You'll always be my Konstantine
