A/N: Ok I'm not really sure how I feel about this chapter. I wrote it over the course of a week. And I didn't actually intend what happens to happen. I just wrote it. I like it for the most part, but with is chapter I did the most editing/revising. I re-wrote it a few times to. I just couldn't get it good enough. So if you don't like it, please don't stop reading. I have a little of the next chapter written and I think it's a lot better than this one. So keep reading please! Alrighty chapter 5:

Friends Who Make Out



"Rory wake up." Jess shook her lightly.

She blinked. "What?"

"We fell asleep."

"I know."

"You're mom isn't gonna be to happy."

"You fell asleep first." Rory said sitting up. "Luke wanted to go home, so I told my mom to let you sleep. And she walked Luke home."

"Oh."

"Rory pointed to the door. "Go see if my mom's up while I get dressed."

Alright." Jess closed the door behind him.

A few minutes later Rory emerged from her room.

"She's not here." Jess said.

"What do you mean she's not here."

"I mean she's not here."

"Maybe she woke up early and went to Luke's." Rory said.

"Or she spent the night with Luke."

"To the diner."

When they got to the diner, it was like any other morning. Lorelai and Luke were arguing about coffee.

"Hey mom." Rory said. "What time did you get home last night?"

"I...um...you know that's how grandma sounded when I was sixteen."

"You didn't answer the question."

"I know."

Jess went behind the counter and poured Rory a cup of coffee.

"Luke where's my coffee?" Lorelai asked.

"You already had some."

Lorelai leaned in close and whispered, "Rory and Jess kiss and he gives her coffee, no argument. We kiss-argument."

"Jess always gave me coffee." Rory said.

Luke sighed and went into the kitchen.

Miss Patty came up to Rory. "Rory dear I am so sorry. Are you okay?"

"Um..."

"Oh my dear you don't have to be strong. Cry, let it all out."

"Miss Patty what are you talking about?"

Dean broke up with you."

"I broke up with him."

"Oh. That's odd. Because when I saw him with another girl, he said he broke up with you."

"No."

"Well, are you ok?"

"Never been better."

"Good for you. Go find yourself a smart, good looking guy at that private school of yours." With that word of advice, Miss Patty left.

"Ok, since she's gone" Lorelai said, I can say this and the whole town will know within the day rather than an hour."

"What?"

Lorelai looked at Jess, then her daughter. "What is going on between you two? Are you going out, or just friends who make out?"

"Could ask you and Luke the same question." Jess said.

"I asked first."

Rory and Jess looked at each other. "Uhhh..." Rory said as Jess shrugged.

"What about you and Luke?"

"Friends who make out." Lorelai replied quickly.

"Oh come on mom, everyone knows you like him."

"I don't like him."

"Then why were you making out with him?" Jess asked.

"What is this? An interrogation?"

"Yes." Rory and Jess said at the same time.

"Well, I refuse to comment with out a lawyer present."

"Ok. Wanna go for a walk Rory?" Jess asked.

"Sure."

The moment they stepped outside, Taylor ran up to them.

"Rory it's such a shame things didn't work out between you and Dean."

Rory sighed, "I guess."

"Very sorry. I'm sure you're heartbroken."

"No I'm not." Rory replied.

As soon as Taylor walked away, Babette came up to them.

"Don't worry Rory dear, you'll find someone eventually. A guy who won't break your heart."

"I broke up with him."

"Really dear? Because it's okay if he broke up with you."

"Bye Babette."

"It'll get better!" Babette called as Rory and Jess walked away.

"This is getting annoying."

"Rory." Kirk called headed towards her.

Rory began running in the other direction, Jess following. When they reached her house, they stopped.

"Must hide." she panted.

""You can't hide in this town." Jess said.

Hearing a beeping sound, Rory pulled her beeper out of her pocket. "It's my mom." She opened the door and began searching for the phone.

"You don't even lock the door?"

"Jess, where do we live?"

"True."

"The only person we have to lock the doors from is Kirk. A ha! Found it."

She dialed her mom's number. "Mom...really?...yeah...sure...that's not right...okay...see ya."

"What'd she want?"

"The police found the guy who hit you, he's at the diner and wants to apologize."

"Oh. What's not right?"

"He's getting off the hook, his dad's some rich lawyer."

"I'm guessing we have to go to the diner." Jess said.

"Yeah."

"Good you're here." Luke said.

"Rory" Lorelai said. "You might not wanna see this guy."

"Why?"

"Trust me."

"Why?"

"Oh Evil Boy! Time to apologize!" Lorelai shouted across the diner.

"Evil Boy? You mean-"

"Mary!"

"Tristan."

"How've you been?"

Rory said nothing.

"Socializing with Rory is not why you're here." Lorelai said.

Tristan turned to Jess. "I'm guessing you're the guy I hit. Sorry." he turned back to Rory. "Miss me?"

"Not particularly."

Tristan put a hand over his heart, "Why Mary I'm hurt."

"You hurt Jess more."

"I said sorry."

Rory just looked at him."

Tristan sighed. "I'm sorry Jess. I didn't mean to hit you. I was just trying to get away."

Jess shrugged.

"Wanna hang out Mary?"

"Not with you."

"You still going out with that guy who works at the grocery store?"

"No."

Tristan's eyes lit up. "About time."

"I have to be back at school in a few days..."

"Look Evil Boy," Lorelai said. "I doubt she'll ba hanging out with you. She likes Jess."

"Well Mary, I have to go now. I'll see you around. If you change your mind..."

"Learn my real name." Rory said.

"Good-bye Rory. Sorry again Jess." Tristan left.

"Why do you call him evil boy?" Jess asked.

"Because he's evil." Lorelai stated. "Luke, coffee please."

"No."

Lorelai turned to Jess. "Please."

"Hey I'm not working."

"But you gave Rory coffee before."

"That's different."

"How?"

Jess shrugged and sat at a table with Rory. Leaving Lorelai to beg Luke.

"There is absolutely nothing to do in this town." Jess said.

"You're just realizing this now?"

"No." Jess said. "How do you know that guy Tristan?"

"He used to go to Chilton."

"Went?

"He goes to military school now."

"And he calls you Mary because?"

Rory looked at him.

"Ok." he looked at Rory.

"What?"

"Nothing."

"Then why are you staring at me?"

"You generally look at some one before you kiss them."

"Oh." Rory was about to say something else but before she could Jess' lips were on hers.

She pulled away. "Need to breathe."

Jess nodded. Everyone in the diner was looking at them.

"These people need to get a life." Jess whispered.

"Ewwwww." Lorelai said.

"Mom, grow up."

"Who's the mother here?" Lorelai demanded.

Miss Patty who had been watching through the window, came inside.

"Not again." Rory muttered.

"Rory, I saw through the window and could not believe my eyes."

Rory said nothing.

"I just hope I don't walk into my dance studio one morning and find you two asleep, like I did you and Dean."

"I...ummm." Rory closed her mouth not knowing what to say.

"And I was certainly surprised to see you kissing our handsome young hoodlum here" she winked at Jess, who moved closer to Rory as if she could protect him. "Especially so soon after you and Dean broke up."

"Um."

"No need for an explanation. Just make sure this one doesn't break your heart. I have to be going now. Bye."

"Wow." Lorelai said. "I wonder if you just received her blessing or if she's upset Jess is taken."

"That's disgusting." Jess said.

"But it's true." Lorelai said.

"Mom she likes any guy with a pulse."

"True, very true. You two do realize you're gonna be hearing speeches of praise and disapproval a lot right?"

Rory got up and stood next to her mom. "You and Luke could be hearing the same thing."

"Is someone calling me?" Luke stepped out of the kitchen.

"No."

As Luke turned to leave Lorelai called "Oh Lukey!"

"Don't call me that."

"But it's cute."

"Exactly!"

"What are you gonna do if I call you Lukey?"

"Never give you coffee again."

"You always say that. But always give me coffee."

Luke grunted. "Fine no Lukey, just Luke."

"What did she mean about you and Dean?" Jess asked.

"Oh...after this dance at Chilton we sat in her dance studio talking and fell asleep. She found us the next morning."

"Ah, the secret life of Rory Gilmore."

"It's not a secret, everyone knew within an hour or so."

"Figures."

Lane ran into the diner. "Rory is it true? Jess hit by a car...and you breaking up with Dean.... kissing Jess?"

"Deep breaths Lane." Lorelai said.

"Okay, did Jess get hit by a car?'

"Yeah." he held up his arm.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah."

"Did you break up with Dean?"

"Yeah."

"Why?"

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

"Did you and Jess kiss?"

"I caught them making out in the kitchen." Lorelai said. And they just kissed again. They haven't said they're going out yet, but they are."

Lane smiled. "We gotta talk."

"I just told you." Rory said.

Lane grabbed her hand. "Come on." and dragged Rory out of the diner.

"Bye!" Rory called behind her.
