If You See Her Java Junkie Disclamer *Alert* You probally wont believe this but I dont own Gilmore Girls or this song. The songs If You See Her, Say Hello by Bob Dylan. *Wow something new and different.* Authors note- You can probally tell these chapters are kinda spur of the moment. This story has only one more chapter to it (excluding this one). I hope you've enjoyed the ride cause the trips almost over.



If you see her, say hello, she might be in Tangier She left here last early spring, is livin' there, I hear Say for me that I'm all right though things get kind of slow She might think that I've forgotten her, don't tell her it isn't so.

Jess stepped into the dinner. It looked the same, but only at face value. He didnt see the L.G. hearts L.D. that Lorelai had wrote behind the counter one day when Luke wasnt looking. He didnt see that Luke had saw it and carved it into the magic marker covered wood. Cause ya never know if magic marker will fade. He didnt see the picture of himself (Jess) that Luke had in his wallet. Luke saw Jess. Starred at him. He knew it was Jess and yet at the same time wasnt so sure. He looked older the jeans were darker and not as baggy as Jess use to wear. Black shirt heavy black boots. He looked kinda sarcastic, jaded. He hadnt shaved in a week. "Hey Luke" Jess said sitting on a stool. "Hey, Jess what're you doing here" Luke. "I wasnt exactly expecting ballons but hey a little confetti woulda been nice" "You need money" "I'm not my mom, I dont need an allowance" "Howd you.....nevermind I dont wanna know" "Probally right" "So.." "I know why am I here, Uh..visiting" "Oh" "She left school last spring" "Left" "Got a job offer" "Really" "Yeah" "Doing" "Journalist" "Good" Jess smiled a bit...for her. "Yeah" "If you see her, say hello..for me" "Anything else, what do I say if she asks about you" "Tell her I'm doing okay, But, lifes a little slow right now" "Really" "Yeah, writers block" "Oh"

We had a falling-out, like lovers often will And to think of how she left that night, it still brings me a chill And though our separation, it pierced me to the heart She still lives inside of me, we've never been apart.

"I need Coffee" Lorelai said slinging herself into the building and onto a stool. Luke just nodded, he knew once she saw Jess shed need the coffee, and arguing with her about it wasnt a smart thing to do. "Okay, whats wrong..." Lorelai curious as to Lukes willingness. Then she glanced right and saw Jess. "Hi Lorelai" Jess. "Jess, what are you doing here, LUKE what is he doing here" Lorelai. "Visiting" Jess and Luke. "She's not here. But, I am and you and me are going to have a little talk" Lorelai grabbing her coffee and going upstairs "Come on, oh and Luke got any meat cleavers laying around up here" Lorelai called down the stairs. Jess glarred at Luke. "If your not back in 10 minutes I'll go check on you" Luke with a laugh. "Funny" Jess mumbled before climbing the stairs. Jess saw Lorelai sitting on a chair. "Sit down" she stated. He did. "Why did you leave" Lorelai calmly asked. "When" "The last time, ya know the time you left my daughter crying at the door." "Didnt she tell you" "No but you will" "Lorelai it isnt my place" "Jess just tell me what happened" "We got in a fight, it happens all the time" "About" "Her" "And" "Another guy" "WHAT, Rory isnt like that. Dont you dare lie to me" "It isnt a lie Lorelai, it was some guy Adam, it was all over town" "So I went to your house to ask her about it. She looked all upset when I brought it up. And she never said it wasnt true" "So you left her crying on the porch, she left that night she said "Bye" thats it just bye and then left. I didnt see her for 2 years." "I was across the street, I saw the way she left" "You shouldve fixed it" "Wasnt my mistake to fix" "You ran away, she called and told me you had left school, why, didnt you love her, shes very loveable, she took all the critisism for being with you" "Lorelai I love Rory, I mean I did" "You love her" "She was with another guy Loreali, She hurt ME Lorelai all I did was leave If it woulda been me you, Luke the whole town woulda been out there ready to hang me. " "You still love her" "I still love her, but thats not important, not now" Jess standing up leaving. "Jess, I'm sorry" Jess just nodded.

If you get close to her, kiss her once for me I always have respected her for busting out and gettin' free Oh, whatever makes her happy, I won't stand in the way Though the bitter taste still lingers on from the night I tried to make her stay.

Jess spent the night with Luke. But T 5 am he was up and dressed ready to leave, to go home. "Runnin away" Luke asked as he approached Jess. "No, Just leavin" Jess. "Well give me a call sometime, so I know your alive" "Will do" "Call your mom" "Less likely" "Jess...shes your mother" "I'm not 16 anymore, hell, even when I was I didnt call her" "So why're you leavin" "I'm done visiting" "Oh" "Hey" Lorelai stated wide awake as she entered the apartment. "Hey" Jes stated grabbing his bag. "Where ya headed" "Home" "Oh" "Yeah well I'll see ya later...oh and do me a favor" "What" "A favor its where ..." "You know what I meant" "Yeah, kiss Rory for me" Lorelai's instinct was to joke about not kissing Rory the way he would but she saw the way he looked and just nodded and said "I can do that" "I can still see her leaving our apartment after she got back to school, I got there as she was leaving the front door, climbing into a cab. I just stood there 20 feet away, she never even saw me..I had wanted her to stay so damn bad" Jess left after that.

I see a lot of people as I make the rounds And I hear her name here and there as I go from town to town And I've never gotten used to it, I've just learned to turn it off Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft.

2 months from his visit to Stars Hallow, Jess now heard Rory's name alot. She was a news caster. The new girl of the news. He personally had never watched her but Luke had called. And he heard mentions of her from journalist friends and such. He had drove around alot looking for inspiration. Heard advertisments "Watch the news with Lorelai at eleven". It was extremely strange. So he always avoided news programs. He felt like an idiot because of it. A grown man 'afraid' of the news. He quickly realized he was either overly sensitive or just going soft. He didnt like the thought of either.

Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast If she's passin' back this way, I'm not that hard to find Tell her she can look me up if she's got the time.

Jess sat in his apartment. Starring out a window at the sky. But not acctually seeing it. Instead he saw her. Their life together. It hadnt lasted very long. He remembered their first anniversary. Their first kiss. Their first fight. Their 22 fight. Every kiss, every fight. Everything. Grabbing the phone he quickly dialed Luke. "Hello" Lorelai groggily answered. "Lorelai" Jess not very suprised. "Uh hey..Jess...Let me get Luke" "No um yeah get him" "Ok..Luke" after a few moments of grumbling Luke got the phone. "What" Luke "How are you" "Uh..fine" "Good and Lorelai" "Fine" "And..." "Jess.what is it" "Do you guys still get time to see Rory" "Just curious" "She's doing good" "Good" "We mentioned your last visit, she asked about you" "Oh" "She asked if youd want to see her" "Yeah well, Tell her if she's ever around my way It's not to hard to find me." "Will do" "And so ya know if she's ever here with nothing to do she can look me up...if she wants to" "I'll do that" "Thanks" "No problem" They both hung up.

"How is he" Lorelai. "Okay.. I think" Luke. "She called today" "Oh" "She said she wants to see him" "Oh" "Stop saying oh" "Oh..kae" "Luke he loves her" "I know that" "She loves him" "Yeah I know, a couple years ago that woulda been a bad thing" "I know" "Lorelai, their adults" "But their OUR adults" "C'mon lets go to bed"
