Sins
Chapter 4: Gluttony
Rory got home and went directly to her kitchen to start brewing coffee and looked inside her empty fridge. "Shoot", she thought. She didn't feel like going out for grocery shopping, so she grabbed crackers and peanut butter from her cupboard, poured herself a cup of coffee and nestled herself on her comfortable couch to read. Soon, her phone ringed. Rory got up, threw her copy of "Gargantua" on the couch and ran to the phone.
"Hello?"
"Hi. Paul gave me your number." Jess said, nonchalantly.
".kay. What can I do for you? I'm bored. Can I come over?"
"Jess, it's all so sudden, I don't know." Rory played with the telephone wire.
"We'll just be watching TV." Jess paused "I'll bring food?" he suggested.
"You're on. How fast can you get here?" He giggled at that.
"I need your address first."
"Jess, Jess" Rory said, disapprovingly. "I assumed your stalking skills would've improved by now."
He laughed again and as soon as their conversation was over, he changed, ran to the grocery and hailed the first cab he saw.
Jess had to knock four times before Rory opened the door to him.
"I'm sorry, I thought that sound was coming from my stomach" She smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Jess blushed, and then, annoyed by his own behaviour, cleared his throat loudly and entered the apartment. His arms were full of grocery bags and Rory came rushing to help him empty the bags.
"Chips, Ice cream, candy, pizza, wine! Thank you oh so much" she cried out, jumping franticly up and down.
"How could you be this excited by food when you ate just two hours ago, probably even less, judging by the presence of these crackers wrappings on your coffee table?" Jess asked, fascinated.
"Don't you know me at all?" Rory pouted. "Anyway, less talking, more eating" she finished, running to the living room, her arms full of junk.
"I like your place. It's very you" he said, looking around before sitting down on the floor, next to her. "So what's on?"
"They're showing a timeless classic, in, like 10 minutes."
"A Chaplin film?"
."No."
"The Graduate?"
"Nope"
"Pulp Fiction?" "Niet!"
"The Godfather?"
"What?" Rory snorted. "You really think I would consider The Godfather a classic?"
"No, never. I just didn't know I was looking for a classic according to your precious standards. So what is it?"
"Ah! 200 Cigarettes."
"Yes, a timeless piece indeed. Proudly produced by the always-classy MTV studios. A phenomenal opportunity to see a non-pathetic Courtney Love and an unglamourized Ben Affleck, all of this, set in the 80's of course." Jess retorted, cynically.
"Yeah, so? What's your point? Seems like a classic to me." Rory laughed and Jess kissed her lightly on the lips.
"Oooh, ooh. It's starting. This is the best part." Rory yelled, sitting back, draping her legs with a quilt.
"It's the credits."
"Exactly. Listen"
The song "I Want Candy" blared out of the TV as Rory started to finger-drum on the coffee table.
Rory was singing, hysterical, and Jess started laughing uncontrollably.
"Candy on the beach, there's nothing better. But I like candy when it's wrapped in a sweater. Some day soon I'll make you mine. Then I'll have candy all the time."
They watched the film, cuddling, and throughout the evening, they occasionally paused from talking and eating to make out. Soon, though, Jess fell asleep and Rory stayed awake, restless.
A/N. This was a transitional chapter. Short. I know. It needs to be there to, obviously, include Gluttony and to help me introduce the next chapter. Please review, it helps me to keep going and you guys are just so nice. (
