*A/N: Sorry for the long update! it's just two weeks or more right? Well...I had this stupid writers block because I was too busy dreaming about Chad (lol) and also I have been kind of busy with school and stuffs. Anyways I'm trying to finish the story and I think about less than 10 or more chapters before the ending...anyways here you go.*
One late afternoon, Faith returned home from work. When she arrived, she was surprised to see Jess talking on the phone and she thought he had left earlier. Faith watched him pace back and forth in the living room and tried to listen to his conversation
"I know you miss me girl and I miss you too…sorry Par…something came up," Jess sighed on the phone
Faith guessed that he's talking to a girl
"well, I would be back at least after 2 or 3 days…but don't worry, when I get back, we're going to spend a lot of time together to make up for the times we were not together," he said
I bet he's talking to his girlfriend…aw…he seems to be so sweet, doesn't he? Faith thought
"yeah, I'll call you again, bye Par, love you," Jess said and hung up
"hey," Jess looked up, Faith stood there with a small smile, "I thought you left already," she said
"well I decided to stay a little longer,"
"I see, where is Rob by the way?" she asked
"went down on an errand," he replied
she nodded her head, "so you're alone here?"
Jess chuckled, "yeah but now I feel much better because I'm not alone,"
Faith smirked, "but then I'll be leaving in awhile,"
"ouch…leaving a poor guy alone, that hurts Faith," Jess grabbed his chest as if he's having a heart attack
Faith rolled her eyes, "gee, I'm just going to buy a birthday present for my co-worker and if you don't feel like being here alone, would you like to come with me then?" she asked
Jess grinned, "I would love to,"
"alright, I'll just change my clothes and be back here in less than 10 minutes" she said and went to her room. Jess watched her and mumbled, "so Rory Gilmore…how long is it going to take for you to remember everything?"
"Ohhh…let's get some coffee," Faith said after an hour of shopping
Jess made a small smile and realize that the coffee addiction is there, "you love coffee?"
"very much," Faith grinned and pulled him into Starbucks with her
"I would like a large regular coffee please, how about you Jess?" she asked
"decaf," he said
"and decaf," Faith told the waitress and Jess insisted on paying, "no you're not. I dragged you out, I pay,"
"fine if you say so, and I guess I'll go get a table," Jess shrugged and Faith nodded. Few minutes later, she found Jess sitting at the corner and he seemed to be deep in thought. Faith examined him for a while and tilted her head. The way he's thinking and staring outside the window made her think of something that confused her again. In her mind, she was seeing a boy who seemed to be lost in mind with sad eyes.
"not again…" Faith groaned and walked to the table, Jess immediately look at her as she sat down and handed him his decaf
"something wrong?" Jess asked her when he saw frustration in her eyes
"no…" she replied and took a sip of her drink, Jess watched her and she caught him staring at her
"what are you looking at?" she asked
"well, just wondering about you, that's all," he sighed and leaned back on his seat
"hmm what?"
"you look like someone I know back then…"
Faith frowned and thought for a minute, "Rory?"
Jess was taken with surprise, "how did you know?"
Faith sighed, "just a guess, from Paris, a customer"
"Paris?" he was even more surprised
"I met her yesterday, I was outside taking a short break and she came for fresh air. Had a quick chat and told me that I look like someone,"
"and she said that you look like Rory?" Jess raised his eyebrows
Faith shook and paused, "actually she did, but earlier a guy called me Rory and when she told me, I just guessed who,"
"a guy?"
"yeah…I think his name is Tristan…" Faith sighed and took another sip of her cappuccino
"you look like you know Paris," she said
"she's my girlfriend…"
Faith was surprised. So he was talking to Paris earlier… she thought
"small world eh?" Jess smiled
"yeah it is…" Faith felt herself nodding, "so Tristan must be a friend of yours too?"
"yeah he is, I met him through Paris but I have heard of him before I met him," he said
"I see, how long have you been dating? If you don't mind me asking,"
"about a year now,"
Faith smiled, "and I hope you two will be together forever,"
"we will,"
Faith nodded, "for some odd reason, I feel like renting a movie…"
"then why don't we go to a video rental then? Is there a video rental store around here?" he asked
"yeah there is, on the lower ground, let's go," she said and quickly finished her cappuccino.
Faith and Jess went into the video rental and they both scanned the videos on the shelves. Jess found what he's been looking for and paid for it
"hey, are you done?" he asked
"hmm…I found Pride and Prejudice and A Walk To Remember, what did you get?" she asked
"this," he showed it to her and watched her. He has a plan and his plan was to bring familiarities back to her. Good thing that she borrowed Pride and Prejudice and A Walk To Remember…I hope it would work. Jess thought and waited for Faith to say something
"Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?" she frowned, "I don't even remember if I've seen that movie already…"
"well if you're not sure, then we can watch it later," Jess grinned
"alright," Faith said and they both started for home.
When they got home, Ron and Dr. Sean were not yet back and they both decided to watch A Walk To Remember first. They watched it with silent and when the scene of Jamie telling Landon that she has leukemia, a flashback hit her.
Rory, please tell me,
I'm sorry…
no, don't be, tell me,
Tris…
what?
I have leukemia.
"are you alright Faith?" Jess asked her, Faith frowned at him and then back to the scene
"what was that about…?" she mumbled
"what?" Jess wanted to know and what he had in mind that something that happened before came to her
"nothing…" she said waving her hand and she continued to watch the movie. Jess glanced at her. I think it will not take a lot of time Rory… he thought.
