Threats Chapter 17
Chris knocked on Josh's door at the Inn. Alec answered, disheveled and slightly hungover. They had raided the mini-bar the night before. "Hi. I'm looking for Jess." "You're the babe's Dad." Christopher glared and was about to give a speech when Jess came to the door. "Mr. Hayden?" "Christopher." "Do you need something?" "We need to have a talk." "Great. Sound like fun." "Walk with me." Jess stepped into the hallway. They began down the stairs and headed towards Luke's. "Rory loves you a lot. I know you are already married, but I never got a chance to say any of this. I love my little girl. I haven't been the greatest father to her, but I love her. Now it's your job to take care of her. And you better or I will break every single bone in your body." Jess nodded. "I love Rory, too. I won't hurt her." Jess entered Luke's.
Luke pulled Jess upstairs. "I think I should give you a speech, since your parents aren't here. I'm proud of you, Jess. You graduated and now you're marrying. And you are marrying Rory, who is almost like a daughter to me. And if you hurt her, I swear, I will not hestitate to hurt you, even if you are family." "Uncle Luke?' "What." He answered gruffly. "I love Rory so much. I will not hurt her. And thanks. For taking me in and, uh, not giving up on me." Luke nodded, both uncomfortable at the emotion. "I've got to get back to the Inn and get ready. See ya later." Luke stepped aside and Jess left for the Inn.
Luke brought several cups of coffee to the Gilmore house. Lorelai answered the door. She was already dressed in her dress. "Wow, you look, um, beautiful, Lorelai." "Thanks, Diner Man. When are you putting on your tux?" "At the last possible moment. I brought coffee." "We love you forever. I would give you my firstborn, but Jess already stole her. Girls! Coffee!" "I brought extra for you and Rory." "Smart man. Now out! We are getting ready and unless you want to end up with make up on for the wedding, you should get out now." She shut the door and handed the coffee to the girls.
Jess stumbled in the door. "We have to get ready, guys." Tristin came out of the bathroom in a tux and blue cumberbund and tie. "Let's have a chat, Jess." Jess sighed, loudly. "Another threat." "Rory adores you. You had better not hurt my little Mary, or I will come after you and cause you to have a long and painful death. That is after, the rest get through with you." "Mary?" Alec asked. "Stay out of it." Tristin demanded. Josh stepped forward, "You just threatened our friend. We will not stay out of it!" "Josh, it's okay." Jess said. Alec, finally understanding, spoke, "Oh! Like the Virgin Mary, right?" Jess shook his head, sarcastically, "Good job, Alec. C'mon. We need to get ready." Jess began to shave.
