"Luke? Is Jess upstairs?" Rory asked.
"Yeah. Go on up," replied Luke.
"Thanks."
Rory gave a few soft knocks on the door. Her knocks were answered with, "What do you want?"
"Jess, it's Rory."
Jess opened the door, "Thought you were Luke."
"Why would Luke knock on the door to his own place?"
"I don't know why he does the things he does."
"Do you want to come with me to the bridge?"
"Would I pass up the chance to spend time with you? Never!"
"Then let's go."
When they got to the bridge they sat on the side with their legs dangling off the edge. They didn't talk for a while. Rory broke the odd silence.
"Jess."
"Rory."
"I told Dean about the kiss."
"And he didn't try to murder me?"
"We broke up."
"It's about time."
"Nice to know that you care so much."
"Did you expect me to be upset about it?"
"Jess? Upset? Impossible!"
"So, when are you going to Washington?"
"I'm leaving on Wednesday."
"So I have two days."
"Two days for what?"
"Oh, nothing."
"I like you Jess," Rory admitted while starring down at the water.
"Well, I like you too Rory," Jess replied. He placed his hand under Rory's chin and positioned her head so she was looking at him. He removed his hand and asked, "Why did you kiss me?"
"I don't know," was the short reply.
"Oh. Well, I'm glad that you did."
"Me too."
"So, what is going on between us?"
"I don't know."
"Me either."
They both turned facing each other and sat cross-legged. Jess wrapped his arms around Rory's waist. She raised her arms and wrapped them around his neck. They were just starring at each other and brewing their own thoughts.
***Jess***
She is so great. She's perfect. She's beautiful. Great smile, and those wonderful eyes. Then her lips, those soft lips.
***Rory***
I love his eyes. It's like I can see right through them, right to his sole. He is so gorgeous and amazing.
******
Jess leaned in and was met half way by Rory's lips. The two shared the kiss for almost a minute. When they broke apart Jess pulled Rory onto his lap. She sat back and closed her eyes wishing that the moment would last forever.
"What do you think about a picnic?" Rory asked.
"Explain yourself." Jess demanded.
"Well tomorrow is the last day before I leave. I think it would be fun."
"You aren't going to make the food are you?"
"You don't like my food?"
"I remember the last time I attempted to eat anything created by you. It wasn't very good."
"Well, why don't we just heist some food from Luke's? Some sandwiches, some coffee, the works."
"Whatever you say."
"Let's go shopping," Rory stood up.
"What?"
"I want to go shopping. I want to get some new clothes before I leave."
"If you say so." Jess stood up, grabbed Rory by the hand, and headed to the bus station.
***Mall***
"Let's go to the book store!" Jess proposed.
"Now Jess, you know that if I go there first that I won't have any money left for clothes!" Rory laughed.
"You're gunna drag me into all of these chick stores aren't you?"
"Darn right," Rory grabbed Jess and attempted to drag him. "Oh come on! One store I want to go to! Then the book store."
"Fine, but you better not take forever."
"It's a deal."
"How about this one?" Jess held up a pink leather halter-top that tied in the back.
"Wouldn't you just love that?"
"Of course I would."
"How about this one for you?" Rory flashed a black, silky, button up shirt.
"I actually already have one like that."
"Right!"
"Seriously!"
"I would love to see the day that you wore it!"
"I look good in anything!"
"Oh really?"
"Yeah!"
"Well then how about I pick out the outfit for you to wear to out picnic tomorrow?"
"Okay, but I get to pick one out for you too."
"Nothing to bad?"
"Okay."
"I mean it!"
"All right."
"It's a deal then. We can't see the clothes until tomorrow. We can meet at my house at 10 and change."
"Okay."
"Meet at the bookstore in half and hour."
***30 Minutes Later***
"Find everything okay?" Rory asked.
"Found exactly what I wanted," Jess smiled.
"For some reason I feel very afraid."
"It'll be all right."
"Help me find The Outsiders."
"Ever read it?"
"Of course. You remind me somewhat of a Greaser."
"You would fit right in with those Soc.'s"
"Jess, I'm flattered!"
"Me too."
They finished paying for their books and darted to the food court. They grabbed a couple of hot dogs and headed back home on the bus.
***Star's Hollow***
"Well, I guess I better get back to Luke's," Jess stated.
"Yeah. Mom will be home soon. I wouldn't want her freaking out when she sees that I'm not there," Rory said.
"See you tomorrow."
"Yeah, tomorrow."
They both took their separate ways home.
"Rory!" Lorelai yelled.
"Mom, why are you home so early?"
"Oh, things were slow at the Inn today after my very important people came and went."
"How did that go?"
"Great! They are having a family reunion and they booked 10 rooms for 2 nights."
"I told you that red tank was a plus!"
"So smart you are."
"I know."
"How did things go with you today?"
"Well, I told Dean."
"And?"
"He was mad."
"You don't need to point out the obvious."
"And he broke up with me."
"Oh honey! I'm sorry." Lorelai squeezed her daughter.
"Please let go! Thank you."
"And?"
"And what?"
"How were things with Jess?"
"I told him that I like him."
"Oh Lord please help me!"
"And we kissed again."
"I figured."
"And we went shopping."
"Hints all the bags."
"We're gong to have a picnic tomorrow."
"You and Jess?"
"No, me and John Travolta."
"I told you not to hang around with that man. His dancing scared me."
"Everything scares you."
"Does not!"
"Anyway, you will not believe what I agreed to do."
"Do I want to know?"
"At the mall, Jess and I picked out outfits for each other to wear tomorrow."
"And what did Prince Charming pick out?"
"I won't know until tomorrow."
"I hope you know what you got yourself into!"
"So do I!"
"Wanna watch a movie?"
"I pick."
"Okay, but nothing with dancing. I don't want to think about that right now."
"Deal."
