Disclaimer: I still own noting

Back at the Gilmore house Lorelai was wondering what to do. She decided to try to talk to her daughter. She knocked on the door. "Rory honey can I come in?" no answer so Lorelai opened the door. Rory was lying on the bed curled up in a blanket reading and crying.

"Rory." Said Lorelai said walking over to her daughter's bed. "Hun is the book really that bad?"

"No, it's what written in pen that hurts." said Rory

"Pen? It's a book." said Lorelai then she saw what was written in the margins of Howl. "Jess?" Lorelai asked after she saw the notes jess wrote in it 6 years ago.

"Jess." said Rory simply. "The night we met he swiped it and gave it back to me the next night."

"He stole it. He wrote in it then gave it back to you." asked an astonished Lorelai.

"Yeah." said Rory. "Then he used it to flirt with me."

"What?" said Lorelai. "Ok I'm confused I thought he played it cool until Sookie's wedding."

"He did, but read what he wrote in the back." said Rory flipping to the back so her mom could read the note in Jess's hand writing.

Rory, Great taste in books this is bout the 40th time I've read it. Don't tell anyone but after yesterday I'm glad I was sent to stars hollow. I hope to get to know you better. Jess

"Whoa." said Lorelai after having finished. "That boy is definitely related to Luke. Just as smooth as his uncle."

"Yeah" said Rory. "I guess being here brought back those feelings."

"Hun." said Lorelai. "That guy has been crazy about you since day1"

"Earlier it seemed like he wanted to talk." said Rory. "But I'm not getting close to him again just to have him leave."

"Hey kid." said Lorelai hugging Rory. "I know I'm the last person to tell you what a guy is gonna do. But the expression he had on his face when he was looking at you could tell a lot."

"You think I should give you another chance?" asked Rory.

"I think." Said Lorelai said slowly. "That you should do what you think is best. He hasn't given up hope and maybe a part of you hasn't either." Just then Lorelai's cell phone rang. "Umm Rory." she said looking at the text that had just come through.

"Who's that?" said Rory looking at the phone.

"It's Sookie." said Lorelai with an I'm-sorry look on her face. "Michel is going crazy and, he's scaring guests. "But if you need me."

Rory saw where this was going. "No I'll be fine."

"You sure?" said Lorelai giving her daughter a side hug.

"Totally. We'll meet at Luke's for dinner at 6:30." said Rory.

"Ok, bye."

"Bye."
