Author's Note: Thanks reviewers!

First there was writers' block, then there was just plain laziness, then there was band camp, and now I'm finally updating (at midnight none the less).

Sorry it's short.

Jess stood waiting. Waiting for the moment that would change his life forever. The moment he would remember for the rest of his life.

Jess looked up the aisle to see Sookie's twin girls being pulling in the pretty wagon down the aisle by Jamie. Sarah and Carla looked so cute in their little dresses, even Jess had to admit that.

Jess fingered the ring in his pocket, knowing he'd have to give it to Jamie when Jamie reached the alter, in a matter of years, with how slow he was going.

Eventually Paris started down the aisle. Rory had picked her for one of her three bridesmaids. Jess only had one groomsman, Luke who was standing right next to him.

Next came Lane. Jess saw her smile at Dave, he knew that they were going to announce their engagement tomorrow before Rory and Jess left for their honeymoon. Rory didn't know, they figured it would be better to surprise her.

And then Rory, with Lorelai carrying her train.

The site of her took his breath away. She was so beautiful.

She wore the bracelet she'd been given when she was younger, the necklace he'd given her for her last birthday, her grandmother's tiara, and she had her toenails painted blue by Lorelai this morning with little rhinestones that spelled out 'I Do'.

So there it was, something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue.

Jess smiled, Rory had gone over this with him for months. In fact, she was having problems with something new and so he knew exactly what to get her for her birthday, with Lorelai's help of course.

Jess looked into Rory's eyes. They were half happy and half sad. Suddenly Jess remembered. He looked at both of Rory's arms. A father held neither on of them. Christopher had been unable to make it and Rory had found out only a month ago. Richard had offered to do it but Rory refused saying that if her own father couldn't walk her down the aisle to be married she would walk alone, except for her mother, who would really be the one giving her away when it all came to it.

Jess followed her eyes until they had to stop and face the priest.

'This is the best day of my life,' they thought simultaneously without either knowing what the other was thinking.

THE END
