"Rory," Jess said staring at her. "Rory, answer."
Rory didn't know what to say. Two days ago she would have said 'yes' in a heartbeat, but now it was different. She had no idea if it was a yes or a no. She sat there in silence confused. Then Jess spoke again, "Wait right here," He got up and walked over to his room. He picked up a box and went back to Rory and opened it. Inside was a ring. It had only a few small diamonds but Rory thought it was beautiful.
Shaking she replied softly, "yes."

Meanwhile, while trying to get out of the house, Lorelai got caught on the phone with her mom. "I've figured it all out," Emily said.
"Figured what out mom?" Lorelai said restlessly.
"How Rory can still go to Harvard, and not get kicked out of Chilton," Emily said.
"We said no abortion, how many times do I have to remind you?" Lorelai said sitting down, this was going to be a long conversation.
"Nope, no abortion," Emily said. Then she started to talk with no time for Lorelai to say anything about it. "Rory will only be 3 months pregnant when she graduates from Chilton so she won't even be showing so there's no problem there. Then if, I mean when Rory gets accepted to Harvard she can put back her admission a year and just be a year behind all her friends in college."
"Wow Mom, you really put a lot of thought in this didn't you?" Lorelai said.
"Yes, now get Rory on the phone and I'll tell her," Emily said.
"Can't," Lorelai said.
"Why not?"
"She's not here Mom," Lorelai said. "She's meeting me, oh, 15 minutes ago so I'll tell her okay?"
"Fine, but she better, my granddaughter is not missing out on a great college education."
"Okay, Mom, bye." Lorelai hung up without giving her mother a chance to say 'bye' back.

"So when are we going to be married?" Jess asked breaking away from their kiss. Rory fingered her ring.
"I don't know, maybe we should tell people we're getting married first," Rory said. "Then my grandma and grandpa won't be so mad and Lane will actually be able to talk to me again."
"Okay," Jess said leaning in for a kiss.
Rory saw the clock, 12:20. "Oh my God!" Rory said jumping up. "I was supposed to meet my mom twenty minutes ago downstairs. Come on Jess, we can tell her!" She said, calming down slightly for that last sentence.
They ran downstairs just as Lorelai came in the door. She saw a flash come from Rory's left ring finger as the light hit her. "Oh my God," She whispered to herself.

A/N: Okay, I hope you're all happy with me for getting her to say yes, but don't think the wedding will be anytime soon, or will it?
