A/N- Sorry about The Shags mix up. I changed that part to Franny and Zoey.
Thanks for pointing that out.

Chapter Five- The Letter
"Jess, what are you doing here? How long have you been standing there?" Rory asked panicked. She hoped he hadn't heard the whole conversation.
"I just got here. I'm on my break. Thought I'd read a little. Spotted you. Walked up to you. Now here I am. What were you doing, listening in on your boyfriends conversation?"
"He's notmyboyfriend." Rory mumbled.
"What?"
"He's NOT MY BOYFRIEND." Rory said more loudly.
"No, I meant Dean not that other guy."
"DEAN IS NOT MY BOYFRIEND!" Rory said loud enough for Babette and Ms. Patty to hear since they were walking past the two. "Oh great. Now the whole towns gonna know not even half an hour after we broke up." Rory started walking away. She didn't know where but she had to think.
Jess quickly stood alongside Rory. "Why?"
"Why what?" Rory asked.
"Why did you guys break up?" Jess asked trying to keep up with Rory's fast pace.
"Well we- wait, it's none of your business!"
"Okay, okay." Rory and Jess kept walking side by side in a surprisingly comfortable silence. A minute later Rory reached the bridge; surprised that this was the place her feet had taken her.
Without a word, the two walked to the middle of the bridge and sat next to each other. For an hour, the two didn't say a word. They just dealt with their own thoughts, in their minds.
Suddenly, Rory took of her shoes and socks and placed them next to her. She then took off her light jacket, revealing a plain white tank top. "What are you doing?" Jess asked, breaking the long silence.
"I'm going for a swim." Rory said like it should have been obvious to him. Rory slowly put her feet into the warm water, then the rest of her body. When she was settled in the lake she faced Jess. "Come on. I'll race you to the end and back."
Jess's surprise was quickly pushed aside and in two seconds flat, he was chasing after Rory. When he caught up to her, Jess swam in front of Rory, blocking her way. Rory tried to get around him but failed, so she splashed water at him. While Jess rubbed his eyes, Rory noticed Jess was shirtless. His body was so perfect. He obviously worked out regularly. Rory found herself running her hands over his hard chest. Jess stopped rubbing his eyes and looked down at her hands. Rory looked at him, red faced. She quickly smiled and swam away calling, "Last one there has to give up reading for the rest of the day!"

Since Lorelei had nothing better to do she went to the Inn to help clean up after the wedding yesterday. Sookie was already on her way to Florida, Rory was off somewhere doing God knows what and Luke was still giving Lorelei the Mr. Freeze. She had no one to confide into. She slumped around the Inn, picking up fallen streamers and potpourri off the ground.
When she got bored of that she went to the front desk and looked for the list of phone numbers Sookie said she put in an envelope at the front desk just in case Lorelei needed to reach her.
When Lorelei found the envelope, she opened it and was surprised at the photograph that was inside it. It was a picture of Lorelei and Luke eating lunch in the gazebo. Lorelei recognized that it was taken during the 'Bid on a Basket' fundraiser. 'Who had taken that picture?' Lorelei thought. She studied it and then turned it around. Sookie's writing was scribbled messily all over the back of the picture.
Lorelei & Luke, I'm going to be gone for 2 weeks and when I get back, I'm hoping that you guys will be friends again. You, Luke, seem so sad and depressed these days and you Lorelei, just haven't been your cheerily self lately. All I'm asking is that you try and do something to fix whatever is broken between the two of you guys. I really miss the old Lorelei and Luke. Stars-Hollow isn't the same and won't ever be the same until you resolve your problems. I love you both and hope I'm helping you realize this is all so silly.
Sookie
Under Sookie's message there were signatures of practically every Stars- Hollow resident on a piece of paper, stapled to the picture.
A//N- Another crappy ending. Sorry 'bout that.
Please review!!!!!
