Wow," Rory said, sounding astonished. "I haven't seen him for two years…"

"Well, what now?" Lorelai asked her.

"Maybe we should…say…hi?"

"Maybe we should run away."

"How about we just ignore it like civilized people and watch our movie. But don't you think we should invite April. Now that you and Luke are married you should bond more. I'm she would like that, she likes you," Rory suggested.

"I guess we could, I'll have other alone nights with you. But, I think we should get ice cream first so we'll be sure Jess is gone."

"Good plan."

The girls walked over to the ice cream parlor, and waited in line. Rory kept on looking back to make sure Jess didn't spot them. They order extra large sundaes and extra whipped cream and cherries, and started to walk to Luke's to get April. Luke decided to stay with April at his apartment so she wouldn't be uncomfortable at Lorelai's, where Luke had been living for the last few weeks. When they were almost to Luke's, they saw Jess drive by.

"Rory, its fine. He won't see you until you want him to."

"Mom, I know its fine. He can see me whenever he wants. I have nothing to hide," Rory said, trying to sound sure. Deep down Rory knew that she always wanted Jess to come back and hoped it was part of God's Plan (that was for you Kate, hope you're happy…everyone else can ignore it). The night Rory went to visit Jess at his publishing place where they had kissed was a night she would never forget. She wanted Jess.

"Okay April, are you ready for you're first Gilmore movie night?"

"Yes," April said excitedly.

"Well, maybe we should go over movie night rules," Lorelai said to April. Rory was laying out the buffet of food.

"Rules?"

"Yes, these movie nights are serious things in the Gilmore household! Okay first off, no talking during the movie, no answering the phone, no moving around too much, and no bathroom trips because then we have to pause and rewind which ruins the flow. Got it?" Lorelai told April.

"I think so…"

"Okay! Let's do it!"

The girls had a wonderful movie night, but Rory couldn't keep her mind off Jess. She really wanted to see him. She told herself tomorrow she would tell him how she felt. After Logan, Rory had no one to lean on because her mother doesn't seem to understand her anymore and Lane was busy and they weren't as close. She needed Jess; she knew she could always lean on him.

"Aren't you worried about seeing Jess at all?" Lorelai asked Rory as they walked to Luke's. Rory was a little bit worried but she was excited to see him.

"No, I'm not. And I'm hungry, let's go."

They walked into the diner, and Rory didn't see Jess. But, she did see everyone staring at her.

"What's going on?" Rory asked Miss Patty.

"Honey, didn't you know? Jess is back. And, everyone is guessing he's here for you," Miss Patty told her.

"Oh," Rory said. She walked over to the counter and sat in her usual seat next to her mother.

She ordered a cup of coffee from Caesar wondering where Luke was. She wondered if he was with Jess. "Hey mom, you know where Luke is?"

"I think he was taking April to the airport."

Rory was dying to see Jess. She told Lorelai she would be at Lane's for the day while Lorelai was at the Inn. She was really going to look for Jess. Rory started to walk towards the lake where she knew Jess like to sit, but she decided to go visit Lane first, because she really did want to see her, and she hated completely lying.

Rory arrived at Lane's house and knocked quietly hoping not to wake Lane's twins, Steve and Kuan (I don't know if that's spelled right) if they were asleep. Lane answered the door.

"Rory! Hey! You don't have to knock you're always welcome here!" Lane said excitedly.

"Oh, thanks. How are you? How are the boys? It seems like I haven't seen you forever!"

"Oh I'm doing really well, and the boys are good too. Come see them," Lane told Rory as she walked over to the playpen. "Here, you can hold Steve. So, how are you doing?"

"I'm pretty good. Working on the campaign trail is hard, but kid of fun. Is Zach still on tour?"

"Well, they extended it a few weeks, but he'll be home in a few days. Actually the band is playing in Boston tonight if you want to come. My mom's watching the boys."

"I'd love to! What time?"

"We'll leave at like 5:00."

"Sounds good. I'll see you then, I'm going to go say hi to the rest of the town," Rory put Steve down and waved good-bye.

Rory got to the bridge and saw Jess sitting on the edge. She walked slowly over to him.

"Jess…hey."

"Oh, Rory. Hi," Jess said sounding surprised.

"I haven't seen you in like two years. How have you been?"

"Um…I've been working, but now our publishing company closed, so I came back…again. Did you finish school? Are you still with Logan?"

"Yeah, I finished school. And no, I'm not with Logan, he moved to California."

"Oh, sorry."

"Jess, I missed you."

"Oh yeah? After all this time?"
