" I honestly don't know Ror. I mean there's a good and a bad side about leaving. "

"what are they" asked Rory

"The bad thing is that I'd have to leave you. The good thing is that I'd be able to do whatever I want. I wouldn't have to be under Luke's watchful eye all the time."

"Well Jess, I'm going to go inside now. But if you do decide to go back to California, do me a favor, say goodbye this time."

"OK. I will. So, I'll see you around?" Jess asked apprehensively.

"Yeah. I'll see you soon." smiled Rory. **************************************************************************** ************** As soon as Rory got inside, Lorelei began asking questions.

"What's he doing here? Why isn't he in California? Is he staying in Stars Hollow? Are you two back together???"

"Ok, one question at a time! Firstly, I honestly don't know what he's doing here but I think he feel kind of guilty about the way he left before. Neither He nor I know whether or not he's going to stay in Stars Hollow and as to us getting back together, that's really not in my hands."

"Way to summarize a long story! Wait. Is he the "Lane" you were talking to at graduation?"

"Yeah, he was. And I'm sorry I didn't tell you at the time but I didn't know if Luke knew he was back and I also didn't know if he planned on staying around for a long time."

"Well Ror, you've had a long day. Why don't we just watch a movie and forget all about Jess for now?"

"Ok, deal!" **************************************************************************** ************** The next morning Lorelei and Rory were on their way to Luke's. Rory didn't really want to go but the thought of coffee convinced her to. The first person they saw when they walked in was Jess. He didn't seem to notice them but that was OK with Rory. They sat down and Luke came over.

"Let me guess," he said. "Coffee?"

"Wow Luke, it's like you read our minds!" exclaimed Lorelei.

Luke walked away shaking his head. A few minutes later Jess came over with the coffee in his hands. He set down a mug and had a to go cup in his hand.

"Hey Ror, can I talk to you?" he asked holding out the to go cup.

"Uh, sure." Rory said taking the coffee from him.

They went outside and walked in silence for a couple of minutes. All of a sudden Jess stopped walking and said., "I've made up my mind"

Rory stopped walking too. She asked, "Ok, well what are you going to do. Are you going to stay or leave?"

Jess waited a couple of seconds and said, "I'm going to."

Read and review please! I'll try and have the next chapter up soon!
