"I know this is a shock" The girl looked at him.
"Just stop talking for a second" Jess mumbled pacing around his office and looked at the girl "What's your name?"
"Libby" She nodded sitting up in the chair with her legs crossed.
"I want you to understand something, your mum broke up with me a few days after that photo was taken and I never knew about you"
"I figured that when you looked shocked when I said you're my dad"
"You have no other family?"
"Grandparents hate me as my mum was a single parent, there's crazy Phil who sent mum to the hospital multiple times"
"Okay" He said "I think calling someone crazy Phil, doesn't have the rights to look after you"
"What's going to happen to me?" She looked at him.
"You'll come home with me and my family"
"I don't want to intrude"
"You're not" He shaked his head "I'll speak to my wife beforehand and she break it down for our son"
"I have a little brother?"
"You do" He grabbed a frame off his desk and passed it her "That's Rory and James"
"What's going to happen now?"
"We'll go to my apartment and we'll figure out everything else tomorrow"
"Okay"
~Next Day~
Rory groaned rolling over and grabbed her phone that was ringing then answered it "Hello?"
"Hey sweets" Lorelai's voice came through "Did I wake you?"
"It's okay" She rubbed her eyes and looked at her son sleeping next to her "Jamie didn't have a good night"
"Slept in your bed again?"
"Yeah" She sighed sitting up and climbed out of bed "It's always the same when Jess isn't here"
"He'll be home tomorrow"
"I know" She nodded quietly walking out of the room and down the stairs "Could you watch him today after school?"
"Of course, I'll take him to the inn, Michel will love him"
"Yeah" She laughed "Remember the last time he went, Michel freaked out"
"He got over it quickly" Lorelai laughed "Where you going today?"
"To see Jess, April sent a photo of him last night and I miss him"
"It's the first time you've been apart for more than day, the first one is always hard"
"I know" Rory sighed walking into the kitchen and turned on the coffee maker.
"Jay will wanna see him too"
"He's got school mum, I can't pull him out for the day"
"Okay"
"Have you read the book?"
"You know I don't read books but Alex loves it, he's read it multiple times"
"You've got another book worm" She smirked poring the coffee into her mug.
"Wouldn't be the same if I didn't"
She looked at the clock "I better go, thanks for later"
"No problem, see you soon"
"Bye mum" She hung up walking towards the stairs when she saw her son standing at the top "Morning sleepy head"
James rubbed his eyes "School?"
"Yeah buddy" She smiled walking up the stairs "One more sleep"
"Then daddy's home" He grinned and ran into his room.
Jess paced around his apartment thinking about what happened the night before and sighed.
"Are you worried?" Libby looked at him sitting on the sofa.
"About what?"
"Your wife finding out about me"
"I'm more nervous then worried" He grabbed his phone as beeped.
Rory: You home? Xxx
Jess: Yeah, why? Xxx
He looked at his phone confused.
"What?" Libby asked.
"Nothing" He shaked his head and read the text that just come through.
Rory: Open your door xxx
He quickly walked over to the door and opened it shocked "Rory?"
"Surprise!" Rory grinned and hugged him tight "I missed you"
"Missed you too" He tightened his arms around her "Where's Jamie?"
"School then going to my mum's" She pulled out of his arms and walked into the apartment "I couldn't pull him out even ..." She stopped when she saw a young girl on the sofa "Hi"
"Hi" She waved a little.
Jess sighed "Rory this is Libby, Libby my wife Rory"
"Oh" Libby jumped up "I'll be in there" She darted into the kitchen.
Rory turned around and looked at him confused "Who's that?"
"It's a long story and I was gonna phone to tell you instead of finding out when I got home" He sighed again walking over and sat on the sofa.
She walked over and sat next to him "Tell me"
"When I was 19 I met this girl in New York called Lucy and we was together for a year then she just broke it off and moved away" He took her hand in his.
"And the girl?"
"She's my daughter" He closed his eyes "I didn't know about her and she just shows to the signing saying Lucy died a few months ago"
"Jess" She squeezed his hand and looked at him to see his eyes still closed "Look at me please"
He sighed opening his eyes and looked at her "I'm sorry"
"It's not your fault" She smiled a little "She needs a family and she's going to have one"
"Are you sure?"
"It'll be something to get used to but I'm sure" She nodded "I think it's time to meet my stepdaughter"
"In a second" He smiled leaning over and kissed her "I love you"
"I love you too dodger" She smirked "Shout her in"
"Libby, you can come back in!" He shouted.
Libby walked back in and looked at them "So?"
"Daddy's home!" James squealed running out of the inn, down the pathway and straight into his dad's arms "You're early"
"I know buddy" Jess tightened his arms around his son and kissed his head "Missed me?"
James nodded and wrapped his arms around his neck "So much"
"Missed you too" Jess looked over at his wife who nodded "Bud, there's someone who wants to meet you" He smiled and nodded at his daughter.
"Who?" James lifted his head.
Libby smiled a little walking over "Hi James"
He turned his head and looked at her confused "Hi"
"I'm Libby, your big sister"
He looked at his dad and grinned "Down please?"
"Okay" Jess chuckled placing him on the floor and looked at her "You okay to watch him?"
"Sure" Libby nodded smiling and held out her hand "Let's go kid"
James grinned grabbing her hand and pulled her away.
"He took that better than I thought he would" Jess smiled.
"Yeah" Rory smiled linking their hands together and rested her head on his shoulder "Shall we go in and tell my mum?"
He chuckled lightly "I don't know what's worse, asking your mum's blessing or telling her about this"
"I think they are equal" She grinned as they walked up the steps and through the main doors of the inn "Hey Michel"
"Your mother is that way" Michel pointed down the hall without looking up.
"Thank you" She smiled as they walked down the hallway.
"I think you should tell your mum and I'll tell Luke" Jess said.
"We'll tell them together" She squeezed his hand.
"Tell us what?"
They froze and looked up to see Lorelai and Luke "Hey"
"Want to tell us what's going on and why you're home early?" Luke looked at his nephew.
"Can we go to mum's office and we'll explain" Rory spoke up.
Lorelai nodded walking back into her office and sat on her chair "So?"
Jess sighed sitting on the sofa with his wife and looked at the people in front of him that's become his parents over the last few years "The reason why I'm home early is because something happened in Philly"
"Everything okay?" Luke asked.
Jess nodded and took a deep breath "I have a daughter"
"You what?" Lorelai looked at him shocked.
Libby smiled as she sat on the steps at the back of the inn watching her little brother run around with some kids.
"Hi"
She looked up to see a guy about the same age as her "Hi?"
He sat next to her and put his hand out "I'm Alex"
"Libby" She nodded and looked back over at her brother who was running towards them.
"Alex!" James grinned and jumped into his knee.
"Hey little dude" Alex chuckled "You're in a good mood"
"Daddy's home and I have a big sister"
"Really?"
"Yeah" James looked next to them "Libby"
"Kid, go and play okay?"
"Okay" James sighed jumping off his knee and ran off.
Alex looked at her "You're the Libby they're talking about"
Libby groaned "I knew this would be a bad idea"
"They're not arguing and my dad can be very scary when he's angry"
"Your dad is in there?" She looked at him confused.
"Luke is Jess's uncle and Lorelai is Rory's mum"
"So you're my uncle?" Libby smirked.
"I guess I am" Alex chuckled "How old are you?"
"15"
He nudged her "We'll be in the same year at school"
"Great, I'll have my uncle watching my every move" She rolled her eyes.
"I'll be a cool uncle" He grinned.
"How's she taking all this?" Lorelai asked as they walked through the inn.
"Really well considering she lost her mum a few months ago and a guy was looking after her called crazy Phil" Jess nodded "I didn't want her to go back to that place"
"And she will never go back" Rory smiled squeezing his hand then heard laughing "Is that?"
"Alex" Luke nodded walking towards the back doors.
Jess looked through the window and smiled seeing his kids and brother-in-law running around with water guns.
"She's already settling in" Rory smiled.
"She's a mini you Jess" Lorelai nudged him smiling.
"All I see is Lucy" Jess smiled a little.
"C'mon" Luke squeezed his shoulders "Let's go meet her"
Rory pushed the door open and grinned "Hey kids"
James spun around and grinned holding up his water gun "Get them"
Jess spotted a gun and picked it up "Oh no you don't" He smirked holding it up.
"Seriously old man" Alex smirked "You can't shot"
"I wouldn't say that Alex" Lorelai laughed and held up some towels "Let's get you guys dry and get some food"
Libby ran up and took a towel "Thanks" She put her hand out "I'm Libby"
"Lorelai" She smiled shaking her hand "I would hug you but"
Libby looked at her dad "Can I get my bag out of the car?"
"Sure" Jess threw her the keys.
"I'll come with you" Alex smiled as they walked through the doors.
"Can I go too?" James looked at his parents.
"No buddy" Jess scooped him up and rubbed the towel over his head "We need to get you dry"
"Where did you grow up Libby?" Luke asked as they sat around a table at the diner later that night.
"Born and raised in New Jersey" Libby smiled eating a chip "You could say I'm a true Jersey gal"
"I'm surprised we never met" Alex nudged her smiling "I'm a true Jersey boy"
"Small world" Rory smiled.
"I think I would remember a dorky kid" Libby smirked and squeaked when a chip flew past her "Hey!" She threw one back at him.
"Libby" Jess looked at her sternly.
"Sorry" She mumbled.
"Leave her be" Lorelai smiled and looked at her "I wanna know you more"
"What do you want to know?" Libby looked at her.
"Whatever you want to tell us" Lorelai nodded "How about your mum?"
"My mum wasn't the best, I looked after her and myself" Libby nodded "She was in rehab when she died, Alcohol and drug abuse"
Rory reacted over and squeezed her hand "Not all families are perfect" She smiled a little "I had my mum but I never had a good relationship with my dad"
"Do you see him?"
"Not a lot, he visits when he can"
"I don't have a good relationship with my parents" Jess nodded "I have the best uncle who has become my dad over the years" He looked at his daughter "I promise I'll try and make up for the years I've missed"
"Okay" Libby smiled a little.
"Which school will she be going to?" Alex asked.
"We've not decided yet" Rory nodded "It's something we need to talk about"
"C'mon, let's toast" Luke smiled lifting his glass up "To Jess on yet another best seller"
"Not yet Uncle Luke" Jess chuckled.
"It will be" Luke grinned "And to Libby, welcome to the family"
"Cheers!" They all clicked the glasses together.
