I don't own anything, except Will, Tony.
And hey Kylie1403- Uhm the last chapters were focused on them. The kid is in the story, but he was asleep for most of the last chapter. He's not forgotten. How could I forget him. I made him. He is the love child between Jess and Rory, who could forget him.
A Different Way
Rory laid her head on Jess' chest, listening to his heart beat as he ran his fingers, lazily, through her hair.
She smiled and kissed his chest, looking up at him she told him, "I missed this." She laid her head back down on his chest.
-
Lorelai walked in the front door of the inn, Will at her side.
"Hey Michel. Do you know if Rory is here."
"No I don't."
"Will hang here with Michel and I'll be back soon." Lorelai turned to Michel, is the key to room 14 taken?"
"It looks that way."
"Alright. Give me the spare." She instructed.
"Well you could ask a little nicer." Michel said getting out the key.
"I could. Now hand over the key." Lorelai as she grabbed it.
She headed up the stairs and to the end of the hall way, where room 14 was. She knocked.
Rory sat up quickly, "Shh." Rory said as Jess was about to whisper something.
"Rory?" Lorelai's voice came through the door.
"Shit!" Rory whispered. She looked around quickly, "Get in the closet." She instructed Jess.
"What?"
"Get in the closet!" She demanded in a whisper.
"Fine." Jess said grabbing his pants and heading for the closet.
"Rory?" Lorelai questioned again.
"What?" Rory said sounding bitter, as she pulled her shirt over her head.
"Can I come in?"
"No." She said quickly.
"What?"
"No you cant come in. I'm still mad at you." She said pulling on her pants.
"Okay. I just wanted to tell you that.. Will is down stairs and I told him he could stay here with me today. And also, Tony called last night. He's worried about you."
Rory stood behind the door, a sinking feeling starting to take hold of her. She cheated on her fiancé, she felt sick.
"Okay." She responded shakily.
"Alright babe. I'll be down stairs if you want to talk."
"Alright."
Once she was sure Lorelai had left she went to the closet, "You can come out now."
"Good." He went to kiss her, but she pulled away, looking at the floor. He looked at her strangely, "What's wrong?" He asked.
"I," She looked into his eyes, "Nothing."
He smiled, "Okay." He kissed her, "So how are we gonna get out of here."
"I'm gonna use the stairs, I'll distract my mother while you run out the door."
"Sounds like a plan." he said before kissing her again.
-
Jess sat behind the counter at Luke's reading. The bell above the door rang out, he looked up to see a man he didn't recognize walk in. Tall, brown hair, green eyes; He reminded him of Dean, only less floppy.
"Excuse me." The man approached Jess, "Do you know Rory Gilmore?"
"Who's asking?"
"I'm Tony, her fiancé."
"Oh. Yeah I know her."
"Do you know where I could find her?"
"Yeah she's at her mother's inn."
"The Dragonfly right?"
"Yep."
"Can you point me in the direction of it."
"I can do you one better. I can show you the place."
"Well thank you."
"Not a problem." Jess said. He wondered why was he doing this, he should be hating this guy, he held a claim to Rory. But he felt bad for him, he pitied him, he knew that he should, Rory was drifting, this man's claim was wavering, he knew this when he saw her take the ring off.
They were there. Jess walked up the old wooden steps and Tony followed.
"Wait here I'll get her." Jess said before going to the kitchen, where he found Rory sitting with Will and Lorelai while Sookie was cooking.
"Rory."
"Jess?"
"I need to talk to you."
"Okay." She said standing up, and walking towards the back door, Jess followed.
Lorelai looked at Sookie once the door closed, "What was that about?"
"I know, I thought they were fighting."
"Me too."
"That's the guy that snuck out of the inn this morning." Will said with a smile, proud that he recognized him.
"What!" Lorelai and Sookie asked in unison.
-
"What is it?" Rory asked when they were outside.
"Tony is here."
"What!"
"He came to the diner. And he's here."
"Oh my god!" Rory said starting to pace.
"I know."
"Oh god. I think I'm gonna be sick." She stopped her motions.
"Stop. You're freaking out."
"I should be freaking out! I had slept with you! I cheated on my fiancé! I should be freaking out!"
"You're right. Go ahead, freak out. Its not gonna help anything."
"You're right." Rory looked at Jess, "What am I gonna do?"
Jess shrugged, he moved to grab her hand, "Do you want to be with him?" He asked looking at her hand as he rubbed circles on her palm.
"I don't think so."
"Talk to him."
She looked up at him, "I should talk to him."
Jess nodded, "Go."
Rory pouted and walked to the inn. She went to the kitchen and out to the front, where Tony stood waiting.
"Hey." She said.
"Hey babe." He went to kiss her.
-
Jess walked into the kitchen. Grabbed a mug and poured himself a cup of coffee. He went to take a sip.
"So what's this about you sneaking out of the inn this morning?" Lorelai asked frown firmly on her face.
Jess nearly spit the sip of coffee he had just taken. He looked at Lorelai, a scared look on his face.
"Maybe you and I should talk." She motioned for the back door, before walking towards it.
Jess followed.
As soon as he was outside Lorelai asked him, "Did you sleep with her?"
"What?"
"You slept with her didn't you?"
"Lorelai."
"You know when you came back you said you weren't here to hurt her or ruin her life. You said you would stay out of it. And you know what I believed you. But you know what you've just screwed up her life again!"
"Now wait a minute."
"No, Jess! You slept with her!"
"So?"
"So she's not yours to sleep with! Jess she's engaged!"
"I know that!"
"Then why did you do it?"
"Because she wanted to! I wasn't going to pursue anything with her. I wanted to be a part of Will's life that's it! I did not come to this town with a plan to get her back into bed! I did nothing wrong here!"
"Yes you did!"
"Fine I did! I did bad! You wanna get the news paper and hit me on the nose maybe I'll learn to do better!"
"Yeah well it couldn't hurt."
"I'm done here!" Jess yelled walking away
"Yeah me too!"
"You know she doesn't even want to be with him anymore!" Jess yelled back towards her.
"Then wait till he's moved out! Then you can move in!"
