A/N: I thought that this chapter was important. We needed a clue as to
what Jess felt for Rory, and here it is.
Chapter 8
Jess looked down at Rory, who was lying against his chest. They were
curled up together, with "Pride and Prejudice" open in Rory's lap. She had
stopped turning the pages about an hour ago, and given in to sleep. Jess
kissed her warm hair softly, tightening his arms around her. He closed his
eyes and drifted into his own thoughts. He couldn't believe that the girl in
his arms was so perfect. She was perfect, and she loved him. What he
couldn't figure out was why.
*Hello, good morning, how you do?
What makes your risin' sun so new?
I could use a fresh beginning too
All of my regrets are nothing new
So this is the way, that I say I need You
This is the way
This is the way *
What Jess loved about Rory was the way she ate donuts for dinner. The
way she got so lost in a kiss that he could kiss her forever. He loved
watching her eyes flutter closed, and then open again, impossibly brighter
than they were before. He loved her innocence, so plainly written across
her face, so plainly there in every word, in every movement she made. He
wished she could always be innocent. He loved her naivety. That she
always saw good in everyone, even when they tried to hide it. She saw
good in him when he tried his best not to let her see it, and nobody else
saw it or believed it existed.
He loved the way she cared about everyone and everything, and was so
untouched.
*That I'm learning to breathe
I'm learning to crawl
I'm finding that you and you alone can break my fall
I'm living again, awake and alive
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies*
And he loved the fact that she was the first person to say the words "I love
you" to him. He loved that she would be the first person that he said those
same three words to. In 17 years, he had never bothered to love, never
thought that those words were important, never cared enough to use
them.
*Hello, good morning, how you been?
Yesterday left my head kicked in
I never, never thought that
I would fall like that
Never knew that I could hurt this bad*
Jess sighed.
*I'm learning to breathe
I'm learning to crawl
I'm finding that you and you alone can break my fall
I'm living again, awake and alive
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies
These abundant skies
Abundant skies*
He loved the way her smile broke him. He loved the way that she'd torn
down the walls around him with one look, one touch.
*This is the way that I say I need you
This is the way that I say I love you
This is the way that I say I'm yours
This is the way*
What he loved most about her, was the way she made him felt. The way
that she kissed him, and he could feel, deep down in his stomach, that
she meant it.
*This is the way that I'm learning to breathe
I'm learning to crawl
I'm finding that you and you alone can break my fall
I'm living again, awake and alive
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies
These abundant skies,
I'm learning to breathe
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies*
Jess heard a noise, and his eyes flew open, snapping him out of his
thoughts.
"You love her, don't you?"
Jess studied the woman on the porch for a second. She gave him no
reason to trust her, he just simply did.
"Yes."
*Hello, good morning, how you do?*
"Good."
Lorelai nodded and walked inside, shutting the door behind her.
