Okay so I only got like 2 reviews on the first chapter but they were really good so it made me really happy . And it's really hard writing Lorelei and coming up with witty and funny comebacks to everything. Anyway on with the story!

"Oh Rory!" Lorelei called in her normal bubbly personality through the shoe racks.

"What do you think about these?" she held up a pair of red pumps.

"I'd say those are ridiculously tall and you have no use for them, although they would compliment your black ruffled skirt nicely." Rory said in a flat uninterested tone.

"What? No use? You obviously missed the fact that I could highly freak grandma out with these. And here I was beginning to think I might've actually given birth to you… what's wrong anyway? I thought it was cold in here but I realized it was just your cold shoulder. C'mon spill the gossip to mommy; you know she has to live through you."

"Nothing." Rory said ignoring the subject.

"We share the same stubbornness, maybe you are mine. I raised you Rory I think I know when something's up."

"Well… you are my favorite mother maybe I could spare you a few details. Its jess, that guy at the diner."

"Ah yes I am well aware of the new stars hollow hoodlum." Lorelei said thinking she might not like where this conversation was going.

"Well his attitude is just bugging me. He could've been a little nicer, I offered him my book!" Rory said, although it was somewhat true it was only half truth. Yes she didn't like his attitude but she felt a strange pulling in his direction. She had just gotten together with dean and she already liked another guy? She sickened herself.

"Yeah well, Luke told me a little about his background and it's not the best. But he'll come around, I mean who doesn't? Everybody loves you!" Lorelei said grinning at how true the last part was.

"And that is why you are my favorite mother."

"And that is why it has been determined that you are the fruit of my loin."

"Now about those pumps…"

"Okay see 'ya later sweets!" Lorelei called after her daughter, after dropping her off with dean.

Jess watched the young couple through the diner window.

'Oh. Great. Little Miss. Perfect had a boyfriend.' Jess thought to himself.

He wanted to be a smartass about it like he was to almost everything but watching them hold hands and sneak innocent little kisses when nobody was watching really saddened him. He was having the same thoughts as Rory was having about him. They were destined. They would take great milestones together. He'd only met her once but he just knew by her eyes, she was perfect for him.

'Dammit Mariano stop IT!' Jess thought. But the thoughts of that being him instead of dean just wouldn't- couldn't leave his mind. He was just sitting there, mindlessly staring out the window, completely oblivious to the fact that Luke and Taylor were arguing again, and Luke was now smacking a screaming Taylor with a piece of bacon.

He was quite relieved when he saw Rory wave Dean Goodbye, but the queasy feeling came right back as she walked into the diner.

"Well that's new…" She stared at Luke and Taylor causing Jess to pay attention to them too.

"Huh how ya like that?" Luke said refusing to stop slapping Taylor with the bacon. "What if I just yelled at you and invaded your space all day?"

"Luke I do not invade your space." Taylor said trying to keep his cool, but obviously annoyed.

"You come into my diner when I don't want you to, my diner is my space, therefore you are invading my personal space." Luke spat back.

Taylor decided that for once Luke could get his way and stormed out of the diner.

"Huh… you'd think I would've noticed." Jess mumbled

"What?" Rory asked.

"Oh," Jess shook his head, "nothing. You still reading that book?" he mentally kicked himself.

'Really Mariano small talk?' he thought annoyed with himself.

"Oh no, I finished it last night. Why, have you reconsidered my offer?" Rory said offering a smile.

'C'mon Mariano think, wouldn't it be polite to say yes, I mean it would be something we could talk about.' Jess thought.

"Um, yeah I think I may have." Jess said in a shy awkward voice.

"Cool I'll just bring it by tomorrow, and why was Luke hitting Taylor with meat?"

"Oh, well he was just uh- I have no idea."

"So, you missed out on Luke hitting Taylor upside the head with bacon." Rory said walking into the living room with a bottle of water.

"Wow… Okay next time I'll think twice before being nice and letting you and Dean have alone time." Lorelei said stifling a laugh.

"Yeah, I can't believe Taylor didn't like, run a bulldozer through the diner or something."

Lorelei eyed her curiously as she put a book in her back pack.

"Didn't you just read that book like, yesterday or something?"

"Yeah but Jess reconsidered his offer, so I'm taking it to him in the morning."

"Okay, just didn't really think you'd still wanna lend it to him after that whole attitude thing that upset you so badly." Lorelei stated

Rory's whole body tensed up. What was she supposed to tell her mom? Yes she told her the truth earlier but only some of it. Not the actual reason she was upset.

"Well maybe this is his way of apologizing; maybe he saw how rude he was." Rory said a little coldly.

"Maybe." Lorelei replied, her voice full of doubt.

K so I know the chapters are kind of short right now but they'll get longer once I get some rory and jess going, but for now be patient little readers, and I will update soon.
