On her way home Rory stopped in a Luke's to say hello, "Hey."
Luke's eyes got wide, "Rory!" He hurried around the counter and hugged her, "How are you doing?"
Rory smiled and hugged Luke back, "I'm good, how have you been?" She asked.
"Can't complain." He said, stepping back and looking at her, "Let me get a look at you. You look great, nothing short of amazing."
Rory blushed, "Thanks."
"Where is your mom?" He asked.
"She took J... She went to Hartford, she had to pick some stuff up." Rory lied.
Luke nodded, "She sure has missed you." He said.
"I missed her too, I missed everyone. It's good to be home." Rory looked out the window and saw Jess coming her way, "I better go."
Luke followed her gaze and nodded, "He hasn't been the same since you left."
Rory tried to ignore his comment but part of her hoped he had missed her, "I'll see ya' Luke." She said before kissing him on the cheek and walking out.
"Bye Rory." Luke said, before she got the door closed.
Rory decided to go back to her mom's house and rest for a while. When she got there there was a message on the machine. She pressed the button, "Rory it's mom, It's about 12:30 and we are on our way home now, see you soon." Rory smiled and looked at the clock 12:53.
She went into the kitchen and made a fresh pot of coffee. Soon after that she herd the front door open, "Anybody here?" Lorelai called.
"In the kitchen." Rory announced.
Lorelai came in holding Jessica who was fast asleep, "Hey smarts, what did you do today?"
Rory shrugged, "I saw him." She said.
"What did he say when you told him?" Lorelai asked.
Rory shook her head, "I didn't talk to him."
Lorelai held up her hand, "Hold on a sec." She carried Jessica to Rory's old bedroom, "Okay now why didn't you talk to him?" She asked when she walked back into the Kitchen.
"I was going to but... I'm a chicken." Rory said, sitting down at the table.
Lorelai sat down across from Rory, "So I notticed."
Rory was saved by the bell when her cell phone rang, "Hello." She answered.
"Hey Ror." A female voice said.
Rory smiled, "Hey Alison, what's up?"
"Not much, how have you been? How was the trip? Is Jessica having a good time? Have you seen her dad yet?"
"Alison." Rory interrupted, "Everything is fine and no I haven't told Jess yet."
"Why the heck not?" She asked.
"Because when I saw him I chickened out." Rory told her friend.
"Maybe you should call him and have him meet you somewhere." Alison said.
"I just don't think I can tell him." Rory said.
"Oh you're gonna tell him." Alison and Lorelai said at the same time.
Rory laughed, "you both said that at the same time."
"Then we have a point, girl you need to tell him." Alison told her.
Rory nodded, "Okay I will, I gotta go Alli."
"Bye girl, and good luck."
"Bye," Rory said before hanging up.
"You gonna tell him today?" Lorelai asked.
"I should, shouldn't I?" Rory asked.
Lorelai nodded, "You know you should."
Rory stood up, "Fine." She picked up the phone and dialed Luke's number.
"Luke's."
"Hey Luke, this is Rory, is Jess around?" She asked.
"Yeah hold on a sec."
"Hello?" Jess said when he picked up the phone.
"Hi." Was all she could seem to say.
"Rory?" He asked.
"Yeah." Geez why couldn't she say more than one word?
"Well hey." He said in a half chipper voice.
"Hey." COME ON JUST ASK HIM, "Can we talk?"
"Uh yeah sure, you want me to come there?" He asked.
NO she thought to herself, "I...Uh...Sure." WHAT??? DID I JUST SAY YES?
"Okay I'll be over soon." He said.
"Ok, bye."
"Bye."
