Rory sat nervously in her room, trying to read. The only problem was she had read the same sentence for the last 10 minutes, and still had no clue what it was about. She wished her mother would just hurry up and come home. She just wanted to get this over with. What could she say? She couldn't change her feelings for Jess. It wasn't fair; Lorelai disliked Jess before he had ever put a foot in Star's Hollow. Sure, Jess hadn't been an angel while he was here, but he hadn't done anything horrible. If it were anybody but Jess, Lorelai would have applauded the practical jokes. And no matter what she thought the accident wasn't Jess's fault. But this was the one subject Lorelai was totally closed minded to. Rory heard a soft knock on the door. "Come in.," she answered. Lorelai stepped in the doorway and studied the room with intensity, as if she was looking for some clue of who her daughter was. She then stared at Rory with the same intensity. She was blinking away tears. "Oh, hon, he's just going got break you heart." she started. "Mom, you don't know him, just give him a chance, he's not like you think. Please, give him a chance." "Rory, I know his type." "He's not a type, Mom, he's Jess. Please, Mom, I'm begging you. Just a chance, that's all I'm asking. I really care about him. Just be civil. I promise, I'll use good judgment and try to not do anything I'll regret.I think I'm falling in love with him." "Oh, Rory." Lorelai knew from experience that her daughter was in too deep for her to be able to pull her out. "I can't keep you from having feelings for him. But, God, I want to. But I can't stop you. Just be careful, so careful. Guard your heart." "It's too late." Rory interrupted. "I know, I know, honey." "Mom, please just give him a chance." "I'll try, only for you, Rory, I would do this for no one else." Rory hugged Lorelai. Lorelai let out a sigh of relief. Things were okay between them again. It had been so long. Besides, she never really liked Dean anyways. "I love you, Rory." "I love you, too." "So, how about Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?" Lorelai asked to put a finishing touch on the truce. * * * * * Luke entered his nephew's room and immediately went over and turned the music down. "Just answer one question. Why? Are you trying to make me look horrible? Why are you going after the town's princess? Why are you breaking Rory's heart? Trying to ruin my friendships? Huh, Jess? Why, you better have a damn good reason!" Luke went on impatiently at his nephew. Jess kept his head down in the book. "Jess! Damn it. Answer me!" Luke yelled and grabbed at the book. "Because I Love Her. Jess looked his uncle dead in the eye. "Is that a good enough reason for you?" Luke saw the truth in Jess's eyes. "Yeah, yeah it is." He replied. Both knew nothing more could be done or said. * * * * * Jess walked over to the two familiar figures sitting at the table. "Hello, Ladies. May I help you?" "Well, Jess, I think we'll both be having the cheeseburger with fries." Lorelai answered. Jess turned to leave. "Oh, and Jess?" Lorelai called after him. "I like your shirt." she said smiling. Jess looked at his shirt that said 'male escort service' on one side, the name 'Dick' was sewn on the other side. "Thanks." he nodded, and tossed a grin to Rory. Maybe it wasn't an earth shattering, heart-pounding event, but it was a start. A beginning. The End. Thank you for Reading.
