Chapter 8
He smiled. He had forgotten how he felt when she was around, after all, since she had came back from Washington they hadn't spoken. And then he realized something, how could she know about Shane if they hadn't spoke?
- Rory?
- Yeah?
- What do you know about Sahne?
- What?
- About Shane. You just asked about her.
- I think I was delirious.
- I don't think so. Come on, what's the problem? From where do you know Shane?
- I don't know her, I just heard people say that you're dating her.
- Hum. - He shook his head smiling.
- Just it.
- I believe in you. I was just thinking.
- Thinking what?
- Nothing. It's just that you asked how was 'Shane and I'.
- Curiosity. After all you are dating, aren't you?
- Can we just change the subject? - He said smiling. He liked to know that she cared, but prefer not answer the question at that moment. The answer could break that 'moment'. Even he didn't knowing what moment it was, he just liked it. "Well, you should be hungry. I'll go bring something in the kitchen."
He came back with burger, French fries and soda to her, and then sat next to her and looked at the watch.
- The class must be ending and Dean must be coming here. You prefer me to live before he arrives, I mean, so you don't discuss.
Rory was eating. She stopped and stood there looking at the burger, and then said quickly, "He won't come."
- He won't come? It's ridiculous. Of course he will come. He's your boyfriend.
- Wow, you beat your own record. Four statements wrong in just one quote. - She said sarcastic.
- Wow, Rory Gilmore sarcastic. Should I be worried about the end of the world?
- I just, I just don't wanna talk about it.
- About what? About Dean don't come. So what he's working, he will come later-
- Jess - she cut him - four statements wrong. He won't come, it's not ridiculous, it's not obvious, and - she took a deep breath - he in not my boyfriend.
Jess was shocked. He didn't know what to say. Honest, it was the last thing he thought that would be possible, that's why he was with Shane.
- I'm really sorry, Rory.
- Don't be.
- So, what you said when you were sleeping.
- Yeah.
- Hum. I don't know what to say.I mean.you two seemed be so well.why would he broke-
- He didn't. I did.
- Oh. Uh. Hum? What?
- Don't you remember the dream? "Cause I can't hold anymore", "It's the best thing to do".
- "It's not because of him, it's because of me."
Rory stood quite. Everything was too obvious, and Jess wasn't stupid. If it wasn't because of him, so, she didn't love him. Jess receive the best and the worst news at the same time. Yes, she had broke up with Dean. No, she didn't love him. Both of then stood quite, they didn't know what to say. He shook his head. That silence was killing him. It was killing both of them. The Jess broke the silence, "I think you should rest, sleep. Since Dean won't come I'll take care of you."
He strokes her hair. He was heart broke, but he still loved her.
She closes her eyes and when she was almost sleeping she asked, "Jess?"
- Hum.
- Do you love Shane? - She had no idea about she was asking, why she was asking. He hadn't to answer, and she hadn't the right of ask. After ask, she was ashamed of what she had done and decided not open her eyes to face him.
- No. - he answered softy. He had all reasons to lie, since she didn't love him, but he just didn't wanna lie to her.
- Oh. Good night, Jess. - She said, even wasn't night yet.
- Good dreams, Rory.
He smiled. He had forgotten how he felt when she was around, after all, since she had came back from Washington they hadn't spoken. And then he realized something, how could she know about Shane if they hadn't spoke?
