Thoughts ran wild in Lorelai's mind as she walked home that evening with out Rory. She wasn't sure why she was angry with her after all she was just a teenager and she didn't have to be exclusive to any guy. Still there was a twang of disappointment in her heart, maybe it was because Rory was turning in to her. It's not like her life had turned out to be so bad but Rory deserved something more, something greater.
Throwing her coat on the couch as she entered her house Lorelai exhaled heavily, things were suppose to be good right now. Her and Luke were finally more then friends, things with her parents were decent for once and she should be happy that Rory was getting involved with something that would help her get into Harvard. Walking to the mantle above her fireplace she picked up a picture of Rory and Chris. They looked happy together, a tear slowly made it's way down her cheek as she brushed the dust away from the picture.
Putting it back she picked up another of Rory and Dean together, they seemed happy and in love. Lorelai sighed, she knew she had over reacted, Rory was Rory, she wouldn't do anything to jepordise Harvard and she wouldn't get pregnant. Rory wasn't her. She wiped away the tear and turned to go back to the diner.

Luke stood stiff as Rory continued to hug him, glancing at Jess he signalled for him to take Rory. He wasn't sure what had just happened, but whatever it was he knew he had to try to fix it. He was always fixing things it seemed. He grabbed his jacket, "You two stay here. You can get something to eat and watch a movie or something if you want."
Jess nodded and smiled a little, squeezing Rory's shoulder he led her back to the apartment. "You want something?"
Rory rubbed at her eyes and shook her head no. Sitting down on the couch she closed her eyes and tried to think. Her mom was disappointed in her, it hurt like hell to know that. All she ever wanted was for her to be proud of her. She let her head fall back against the couch and sighed.
Jess noticed how down Rory looked, all he wanted was to make everything better again and that was the one thing he couldn't do. Sighing he went into his room to get a shirt, coming back out he sat next to her and turned on the television. Flipping through the channels he finally got up and looked for a movie. Turning to look at Rory he asked, "Wanna watch the Wedding Planner?"
Rory opened her eyes a little and looked at him, he seemed so lost. She nodded and muttered, "Sure."
Jess quickly put the movie in and pushed play, sitting back on the couch he carefully put an arm around Rory's shoulders. She stiffened for a moment but then relaxed and rested her head on his shoulder. She turned into him a bit and moved closer, resting a lightly hand on his stomach. He closed his eyes and turned his head down to rest his cheek against the top of her head and whispered, "Everything's going to be okay."
Rory pulled back a little to study him, she smiled softly and leaned forward to kiss him lightly. Resting her head back on his chest she felt the pain in her chest lessen as she smiled and repeated what he had said, "Everything's going to be okay."

Luke drove to Lorelai's not sure of what to expect. His thoughts drifted to earlier, when Lorelai and him were together things seemed to be great but when they were apart he couldn't help but wonder if they really were great or if it was just a... he fought to find the right word. An illusion, that's it, maybe things felt great just because everyone else thought they should be or maybe everything seemed great because Lorelai was everything he ever wanted. He sighed thinking that it was the latter.
Lorelai stepped out her door as Luke drove in her drive way, she smiled when she saw him. She skipped over to him and leaned against his door, "How is she?"
Luke smiled softly at her, bringing his hand to gently caress her cheek, "She's... sad. But I left Jess with instructions to make her feel better. How are you?"
She shrugged, "Well considering I told my baby I was disappointed in her and made her sad the day before she leaves for six weeks I'd say I'm pretty good. Would you mind taking me back to the diner?"
He rolled his eyes, "What would you do if I said no?"
She tilted her head to one side and thought for a moment, "I would... not come in to see you for a whole week!"
Luke thought about this for a moment before he started his truck and acted like he was going to leave, seeing the surprise on Lorelai's face he stopped, "Get in."
Lorelai ran to the passenger's side and climbed in setting herself close to Luke she hugged him, "Thanks Luke."
He turned his head to look at her questioningly, "For what?"
She smiled and brought her lips to meet his, the kiss was soft at first but soon they began to kiss each other passionately. Finally Lorelai pulled away, breathing heavily she answered, "For being you."
He smiled and nodded. Putting an arm around her shoulders, he drove back to the diner.

Rory's head was stilling resting on Jess's chest when she heard the apartment door open and the lights come on. She blinked a few times before looking toward the door, her eyes lit when she saw Luke and her mother. Jumping up she ran over to her mom and hugged her tightly, "I'm so sorry Mom, I know this is wrong and I've decided who..."
Lorelai interupted her, "No, I'm sorry you're a teenager you don't have to be exclusive to anyone if you don't want to be." She hugged her daughter back fearcily.
Jess bit his bottum lip wondering who Rory had choosen, God he hoped it was him. He had never felt so much for someone before. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath before asking, "Who did you choose Rory?"
