A/N: Hey guys, thanks for all the reviews! This may be the last part I post for a little while; I only got the first two parts up so quickly because I had a four day weekend off from school. I have school tomorrow, and finals and regents begin soon, so I have to stay after school fro review. So I have no idea when I'll be able to post more. I will write more though, and it will be posted eventually. The notebook I am writing it in goes everywhere with me. So...here's chapter 3!

1 Fork Fights

Luke rang the doorbell.

"Rory get that! It's probably the Chinese delivery guy!" Lorelai shouted from the smoke filled kitchen.

"Mom, it came five minutes ago!"

She opened the door. "Oh, hi." She moved so they could come in. "Mom they're here!"

"Ahhhh!"

"Is everything okay?" Luke asked.

"My mom killed dinner. The kitchen is filled with smoke."

"I'll go...yeah." Luke hurried towards the kitchen.

"What was she trying to make?" Jess asked.

"She wouldn't tell me. She kicked me out of the kitchen."

Rory and Jess stood in the living room, waiting.

"We only have three plates." Lorelai announced coming into the room.

"Why?"

"We're out of paper plates, and I kinda broke the fourth China plate. So one of you can't eat."

"Or we can share plates." Rory said.

"Oh how smart you are daughter of mine!" Lorelai shouted. This is why you are going to Harvard! Who's sharing? Not me!"

"Me and Jess can." Rory said.

"He can't hold a plate and eat at the same time anyway." Luke said.

Lorelai handed Luke and Rory a plate. They began filling their plates with the food on the coffee table.

Lorelai handed everyone but Jess a fork.

"We need another fork mom."

Lorelai and Luke sat on the couch. I can't find any more. They disappeared."

"How can you loose a bunch of forks?" Jess asked.

"I dunno. You'll just have to share."

Rory and Jess sat on the floor leaning against the couch and each other.

Lorelai grabbed the remote and hit play.

"What movie?" Luke asked.

"Coyote Ugly! Maybe after seeing it you'll let me dance on the counter."

"No."

"Oh! It's starting!"

"Lorelai quieted down and began eating.

Jess took a bite of food, and handed Rory the fork. For a few minutes they passed it back and forth.

Jess took another bite, and Rory reached for the fork. He pulled it away smirking. Rory pouted in hope Jess would give up the fork. He only shook his head and smirked. Normally, Rory would have tackled him, and wrestled the fork away, but she didn't want to hurt him more.

"Please." Rory mouthed.

"No." he mouthed back, and stuck the fork into the food, taking another bite.

Rory put the plate down out of his reach.

"Hey!" he mouthed.

Rory shook her head smiling.

Jess reached over with his good arm and tickled her. She shrieked.

Lorelai and Luke snapped out of the trance they seemed to be.

"Why are you screaming?" Lorelai asked.

Rory shrugged.

"Well be quiet." she whined. "It's getting to the good party where she takes off her clothes and they have sex."

Luke moaned.

"Hey, it's a good movie."

Rory stood up and went into the kitchen. Jess followed.

"You are mean." Rory said. "Holding the fork hostage."

"Well you held the plate hostage."

"But you took the fork first."

"Why'd you break up with Dean?"

"We hardly saw each other, and when we did we fought."

"About what?"

Rory looked at him. "You know."

"No I don't."

"Yeah you do."

"I have an idea, but I don't know."

"You."

"Okay."

"He didn't like me hanging out with you."

"So you broke up with him to hang out with me?"

Rory blushed. "Yeah."

"I thought you loved him."

"So did I." she said quietly.

"Are you okay?" Jess asked. "I'm sorry I brought it up."

"It's okay."

Jess put his good arm around her shoulders. "You sure?"

"Yeah."

"Okay." Jess leaned down and kissed her on the lips. Rory turned and wrapped her arms around his neck, deepening the kiss.

Lorelai and Luke appeared in the doorway.

"I thought she was supposed to tell some guy she liked him." Luke whispered.

"She just did." Lorelai replied.
