When Rory woke up the next morning, she still had that horrible feeling inside. The same feeling that she had the night before. Her eyes automatically went to her wrist. She stared at it for a while, even tough there was nothing to see. It wasn't red or anything, but she could still feel it. She could still feel his fingers around her wrist. His fingers were holding her wrist so tight. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She shouldn't be thinking about last night. It was just a mistake, he probably drank a little too much or something. But she knew he hadn't. She remembered looking at him and his friends. They were all holding beers in their hands except for Jess. She opened her eyes again. A tear slowly slid down her cheek. She didn't like the new Jess, she didn't like him at all. He just stood there and watched as Jeremy grabbed her and........... Another tear slid down her cheek. She wasn't going to cry now, she couldn't. She had to meet Dean in about twenty minutes. He was driving her to school and if she showed up with red eyes, he would surely start to ask questions and worry about her. And she didn't want him to. Besides she was probably making things worse than they really were.
As soon as she stepped out in the fresh air, she started to feel better. She looked up at the blue sky and took a step forward. The sun was shining on her face now.
J: ''Nice, isn't it ?''
Rory lowered her eyes. She knew who that voice belonged to, but she just had to see for herself. Her eyes met his. She took a step back and looked away. The horrible feeling of fear came back.
R: ''J........Jess, what are you doing here ?''
J: ''I came to apologize.''
Rory kept looking at her shoes. She was trying really hard not to cry.
J: ''Rory.''
He took a step toward her. Rory quickly backed away from him. She started to panic and she knew that if she looked at him, she would totally break down in tears.
Jess stopped. She was afraid of him.
J: ''Rory, I'm sorry for what happened last night.''
Suddenly Rory looked up at him, tears were running down her cheeks.
R: ''For what ? For letting Jeremy do that to me ?''
J: ''Yeah.''
R: ''You know I never expected you to just watch, when he............''
She stopped talking to wipe her tears away. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, before she opened them again.
R: ''How could you just watch and do nothing ?''
J: ''I didn't mean to, I just.............''
R: ''You just what ? Were you drunk ?''
Jess shook his head.
R: ''Then what ?''
Jess didn't know what to tell Rory. He couldn't just tell her that he had feelings for her. Or that last night he couldn't control his feelings anymore. So he said nothing and just looked at her, while tears were starting to form in her eyes again.
Rory bit her lip and nodded.
R: ''And you know what the worst part is ? I can't stop thinking about what happened. I keep seeing you grab my wrist and I keep feeling your fingers around my wrist. And I try to pull it back, but you won't let go. It scared me, I never thought that I would ever say this, but last night you scared me. It was like you were a totally different person.''
Jess didn't say anything. He knew that she was right, but he still didn't wanna tell her about New York. He wanted to protect her.
Rory pushed past him and started to walk away. Jess followed her and gently grabbed her wrist.
Rory pulled her wrist free and turned around with a scared look on her face.
J: ''Rory.........''
R: ''I have to go.''
J: ''Why ?''
R: ''Dean's driving me to school today.''
Jess didn't say anything and watched her walk away. Then he got mad. He was trying to apologize, but she wouldn't let him finish. She didn't have the time, she had to meet Dean. Even tough Jess didn't know Dean that well, he already hated him. He hated him, because he had Rory...........in every single way.
When Rory got home from school Dean was waiting for her. He sat on the steps of her house with his head down.
R: ''Hey.''
Dean looked up at her. Rory got a shocked look on her face, when she saw Dean's face.
R: ''O my God, what happened ?''
She stopped in front of him and reached to touch his face. He had a black eye and the rest of his face was covered with bruises. His jaw was swollen and he had a cut on his forehead. When Rory touched him he cringed. She quickly pulled her hand back.
R: ''Sorry.''
D: ''It's okay, it just hurts.''
He gave her a weak smile.
R: ''Who did this to you ?''
D: ''Jess.''
R: ''What ?''
Dean nodded and got up.
D: ''He attacked me at school today. I didn't do or say anything to him. He just punched me and we got in a fight. Guess who won ?''
Rory couldn't believe it ? Jess did this to Dean ? How could he ? Rory started to get mad and pushed past Dean.
D: ''Where are you going ?''
R: ''I'm going to talk to Jess.''
Dean stopped her and locked eyes with her.
D: ''Are you sure ?''
R: ''Of course I'm sure, he can't just do this to you.''
Rory softly kissed Dean on his cheek and headed for the diner. She stormed into the diner and looked around for Jess. When she didn't see him she went upstairs. She didn't even bother to knock, she just went into the apartment. He was lying on his bed, reading a book. How could he read, when he just beat up Dean ?
R: ''Jess.''
He looked up.
J: ''Hey, what's wrong ?''
R: ''How could you even ask that ?''
Jess closed his book and sat up straight.
J: ''What do you mean ?''
R: ''Don't pretend like you don't know.''
J: ''What are you talking about ?''
Jess got up from his bed with a confused look on his face.
R: ''I just saw Dean.''
Jess immediately looked away from her.
R: ''He told me that you attacked him at school.''
J: ''I..............''
R: ''Is it true ?''
Jess didn't say anything.
R: ''Tell me Jess, is it true ?!''
When she raised her voice, Jess looked up at her. She really was mad.
J: ''Yes.''
Rory turned her head a little so she didn't have to look in his eyes anymore. She couldn't look in his eyes, if she did she would just get mad and freak out.
R: ''His face. Did you see it ? How could you ?''
Jess didn't know what to tell her. When he saw Dean at school, he just couldn't control himself. And as soon as he punched Dean he couldn't stop. A teacher had to pull him away from Dean.
R: ''Why ?''
Jess shrugged.
J: ''I just felt like it.''
He turned around and got a cigarette. He just needed something to do, cause he couldn't look her in the eyes anymore.
Rory took a deep breath and calmed herself down a little, before she started to talk again.
R: ''What happened to you ?''
J: ''What do you mean ?''
Jess was looking out the window. His back was facing Rory.
R: ''You changed. You're not the same person anymore.''
J: ''Yeah well, I changed, I grew up. And unlike some people I didn't do what people expected me to.''
R: ''What's that supposed to mean ?''
Jess put out his cigarette and faced her again.
J: ''I'm talking about you, you never changed. You're still living your perfect life.''
R: ''That's not true.''
J: ''Isn't it ?''
Rory's eyes filled with tears.
R: ''Jess, I don't wanna be in a fight with you. You're my best friend and I missed you.''
Jess looked at Rory. Her eyes were filled with tears and she had a hurt look on her face.
J: ''Well, I didn't miss you.''
Rory gasped and took a step back. He didn't miss her ? She couldn't take it anymore. She turned around and stormed out of the apartment. Jess didn't stop her, he just watched. He didn't mean to say those things to her, but they just came out. He didn't wanna hurt her. He looked out the window and saw her running away from the diner. She was running away from him.........
