1 Part Five
"You know, Uncle Luke says all you have to do is take three left turns and you'll end up right back at the center of town," Jess told her as they stepped outside of Luke's Dinner, once Luke had arrived and taken over.
"Wouldn't that be four?"
Jess shrugged, "We don't have a large supply of logic here."
Rory watched the matching mother and daughter pass them before replying. "I'm noticing that."
"This is Doose's Market, if you care," He pointed to the building beside them. "I'm sure you don't."
"You never know," Rory shrugged. "I could get hungry and there's nothing stocked in the fridge…"
"That'll never happen with Luke and Lorelai around."
"Good to know," Rory replied with a sigh. "I miss my car."
"Where is it?" Jess asked as they crossed the street.
"England."
"Couldn't bring it?"
"It doesn't drive on the 'right' side of the road," She shrugged. "I figured I'd save myself from accidents if I sold it in England."
He raised an eyebrow, "Ah, so you actually are smart."
"This surprises you?"
"Anything that comes from Lorelai is questionable."
"Ouch for her," Rory commented as they arrived in front of the antique shop.
"This is the Kim's Antique Shoppe, I'm not sure if you want to go in. Very weird family."
She shrugged, "There can be no harm in antiques. I use to go antique shopping every other week with my grandmother."
"You've lived a scary life."
Rory grinned at him as they continued walking. "I'm not sure I'm quite ready to meet the rest of the town just yet."
"Understandable," They crossed the street again to arrive in front of Luke's. "That was our town."
"Luke wasn't kidding," Rory said.
"He's not really the kidding sort," Jess enlightened her. "Like, almost never. It's kind of funny since Lorelai is a kidding sort."
"Good to know."
"So what're you doing the rest of the day?" Jess asked her.
"Oh, I think I'm going to rest," Rory answered. "You know, all that not sleeping and studying last night."
He grinned, "Oh, I know."
Rory stepped back, fully intending to head back home- home, what an odd word to use in this quirky town. Her mother's house, that was much better, but she stopped abruptly.
"Jess?"
"Yeah?"
"I don't remember how to get back to the house."
He burst out laughing, impairing him from leading her back home for another five minutes.

A/N: Short, no? Sorry, but the next scene and this scene do not go well together, so I decided to make the next one longer. Better? Yes, it all evens out.
