A/n: don't trust me. At all. For your own good. Sorry about this!!!!!

Over a candle-lit dinner, Jess and Rory talked about all the memories that they had shared in Star Hollow. The dinner lasted four hours, and at the end of the dinner, Rory found herself wishing it would never end. Of course, she was bombarded with her conscience that she had a boyfriend and she wouldn't be able to change that.

On the to her hand, Jess found himself enjoying his time with Rory, but it felt like something was missing. She seemed different to him, something about her. Even though different wasn't necessarily a bad thing, it wasn't exactly a good thing for Jess either. It seemed as if the years that they had been apart had changed her, just in a way that Jess couldn't quite figure out.

She looked the same- same brown hair, blue eyes, and sweet face- but there was something that had changed or that was missing that Jess couldn't quite put his finger on.

Patrick was having a very enjoyable day. After being so busy this past semester, he was happy to be able to finally relax with his girlfriend, even though she seemed so jumpy today. He and Dave had just now finished their competitive game of pool, and had bonded pretty well in such a small amount of time.

As Patrick checked his watch, and realized it was close to being 11 o'clock, he began to worry about Rory. She had seemed pretty distressed at his leaving for the night, even though he had no idea why. As he sat on a seat in the bar while waiting for Dave to come back from going to the bathroom, a long-legged red-haired took the seat next to him.

"Remember me, Patrick? Beginning of college, first day actually. You couldn't find your class.. I know you're not that dense."

Patrick throughout the whole time she was talking had in fact no idea who she was, that is, until the last thing she said. "Wait a minute, you're telling me that you're Bridget? Wow, long time no see. So why are you here?"

"Why is anyone else here?" She took a glance around the bar. "For a break of course. What about yourself? Still going out with that girl, I think her name was Rory?"

"Yeah, actually she's here now."

"So you're telling me that you're still together, right?"

"Yeah why?"

"Well she looked pretty friendly with another guy, hot I may add, but you're sure that you guys haven't broken up? Cause she looked pretty over you from my point of view. But you know, it could have been anything.."

To tell you the truth, Patrick almost didn't care. He had always had an interest in Bridget, and his first thought was that maybe he could finally get her as a girlfriend. Of course, there was the Rory factor, but since he had drunk a little too much alcohol that night, it didn't seem to matter.

"Yeah, I bet it was some old friend or something. Hey want to go back to my room, you know just to catch up? If Rory's out with an old friend, she shouldn't be back in awhile. And it seems like the friend I was hanging out with left, so do you want to go?"

"As long as Rory won't mind..

"I'm sure she'd be fine with it."

**

Dave was nervous. So nervous in fact, that after he had gone to the bathroom, he had forgotten about Patrick in the bar. He was finally going to ask Lane to marry him, after all of these years of going out with her. He took a deep breath and went in his room.

**

Lorelai sat in her room, thinking about how nice Luke had been all of those long years. Maybe he was more than just a friend. The doorbell rang, and Lorelai jumped up halfway through it. She wondered who it could be at this time of night.

**

Luke found himself standing outside Lorelai's house, ringing her doorbell. He wondered what had happened to get him where he was now.

**

Bridget and Patrick were on the sofa in Rory and Patrick's hotel room, talking about everything that had happened to them in the time they had been in college. Suddenly, the alcohol almost took over Patrick's judgment, and he found himself kissing the girl who was certainly not his girlfriend.

**

The only thing that was in Bridget's mind as Patrick kissed her was not guilt, but how well he kissed, and how he sort of looked like Elijah Wood.

**

After the best time that Rory had had in a long time, Rory and Jess stood outside her hotel room.

"So did you have a good time tonight?" Rory nodded.

"I hope we get to see each other more often after this trip, I've missed you Jess."

Jess was silent for a moment, then added, "I have too Rory."

Without thinking, and remembering the day that Jess had come back from New York, she leaned in and kissed him. After the short kiss, she whispered in his ear, "I love you."

**

Jess was shocked from the kiss, but more of what had happened after the kiss. But what stunned him even more was that there was a possibility that he didn't love her back.

**

Rory smiled, then opened the door, only to find Patrick laying on top of some red-head, kissing her in a way he had never kissed Rory.

**

Dave and Lane went outside to the deck, the lights shimmering behind them. Dave took a deep breath, and got on one knee, took out a box and asked, "Lane Kim, I love you more than life itself, will you marry me?"

**

Lane took a deep breath, then answered, "Of course!!" She got down on her knees took the box, with a scream of excitement, hugged, and kissed him.

**

"Luke. Isn't it a little bit late for you to be here?"

"Lorelai, well I don't know what exactly came over me to come over." Luke shifted his weight several times during a long silence.

'Well, I'm glad you did. I was thinking and, well, I realize, I love you Luke. I want to get married to you; I want to have kids with you. Or at least go out with you." She grinned the classic Lorelai-grin, and kissed him full-heartedly.
