A/N: Hey. I'm in a weird mood. Have you guys ever felt like nothing was real? Yeah. I've been getting that feeling a lot lately. I woke up this morning and was sick. Like throw-up sick. I've got a headache and I have a strong urge to hit someone. Anyone. My right ring finger is stuck in the position I use for typing. Which is great, real convenient, I can't seem to hit the comma key so my sentences will probably be short and choppy, and I now cannot go back and edit words without having everything after it deleted. Fun. I'm listening to myself in my head and I sound like Michel, minus the French accent. Great. So, now that I have filled your heads with way more information than you needed I'll get down to business.

Business.... Oh shit. My mind just went blank. Oh, right. Nope, lost it again.

Okay, here we go. Reviews. Thanks a lot for them, I haven't gotten any for chapter six yet, (dammit comma key work!) probably because I only posted it a couple hours ago. But the ones I have received made me very happy. I'm afraid to get ones back for chapter six. It sucked. Okay, it didn't suck. There were places where it was way out of character, but it didn't suck. Did you guys like when Jess found Lorelai's shirt in Luke's bathroom? I'm expanding on that in a totally unexpected way this chapter. And I know, the Rory/Jess sex thing, not my best work. But hey, I'm not A. S-P here. Oh, BTW, Samantha I saw that, you used A. S-P in your disclaimer, I'm calling that a shout-out to me. :-D Yes, people I know I probably didn't come up with that, it's shorter than writing her whole name and for people like me who can actually remember her whole name? But let me have my 15 minutes of fame. I have no idea what I was going to say. My mom told me to reread my paragraph, cause I said that fact out loud, and I did but it didn't help, so I'm moving on.

Have I ever mentioned how much I hate Tristan? I think part of my mood is because I'm reading a Trory right now. It's well written, and I like that Jess lives with Rory, but she's dating Tristan. I also read 6 years and got a little lost. Good story but I was lost. Um. I think you guys want the chapter right? I can here you saying to me, shut up Amanda, no one cares. We just want to see what Lorelai says to Jess and Rory, what's going on with her and Luke, and if Luke finds out they had sex. That's all so shut up, we don't care that you hate Tristan, most of us have read the stories you're talking about, we don't need you to tell us. Oh, and this thing where you're telling us what we're thinking....it's annoying. Shut up and write the damn story already. Well, fine! Don't get all hostile on me!

I love you guys! You see you guys, you're great.

~*~*~*~*Chapter 7*~*~*~*~

Lorelai's glance shot back and forth between Rory and Jess. Oh my God! She thought. Rory was here with him all night. I was afraid of this. No, actually I was afraid that she was going to California. This is worse. Jess is here, Rory was with him all night, and Luke knew. Luke was supposed to be my partner in crime in all of this. He agreed that Rory and Jess shouldn't be together. What happened?

She glanced over at Luke and it appeared that a heavy cloud had been lifted. There was something in his eyes she hadn't seen in a very long time. She glanced over at her daughter. There was a shine, an all too familiar shine she didn't like to think about, in her eyes. Rory was happy, she was in love. She was also very mad at her.

"Hey, mini-me. I was worried, we need to talk." Lorelai said, trying for a cheerful disposition.

Rory had grown up so much over the summer. Part of that meant growing away from Lorelai. She didn't like that in the least, but she realized she had been taking the wrong approach. Just because everything was changing didn't mean anything had to change, right?

"Mom, I've heard it all before. We don't need to talk." Rory said, her face dropping.

She wanted things back the way they were between her and Lorelai. But that could never happen. When she had told her mother that she loved Jess and was going to be with him, that in her eyes nothing had changed, Lorelai had freaked out. Rory had done some freaking out of her own. Why couldn't her mother be happy for her? She had understood what Lorelai was saying. Everything would've been alright, but Lorelai had messed that up.

"I don't want you to make my mistakes. You're eighteen, not sixteen, but close enough! Getting pregnant at sixteen was the biggest mistake of my life!" Lorelai had yelled.

"So that means I was the biggest mistake of your life! Thanks, Mom!"

"That's not what I said! I didn't mean...."

"I know exactly what you meant."

Rory had stormed off to her room and moments later Jess had shown up. Nothing could be the same after that.

"Rory, we need to talk." Lorelai said again.

"Fine, Mom, talk. I don't care."

"I don't like you being with Jess. I don't. He's bad for you."

"Mom...."

"Wait, I'm not done. I told you that if you saw something good in him that I would try to see it too. I tried, and I don't see it. All I see is bad in him."

"Ms. Gilmore, in all fairness you have never tried to know me." Jess piped up.

"Jess, from the minute you came here you were nothing but trouble. And I tried to be nice to you, when you stole that beer from my fridge, I tried to be nice."

"That once, Mom. One time. That's it. You've been on him ever since."

"Hi! I'm trying to make a point here. Rory, you're going to Yale. Where does that leave you two?"

"I'll get an apartment in New Haven so I can be close to Rory. I'm not leaving her. I love her. I will never leave her again." Jess said reaching over and taking Rory's hand.

"You say never......"

"And I mean never. I messed up when I left. I get that. God, I get that. But I'm back and I am back to stay. I said I love Rory and I mean it. I'm going to stay with her forever."

"Jess. You can't mean that. You are so young...."

"Lorelai! I mean that! What I mean exactly is I want to marry her, start a family with her! I never thought I'd ever want that from anyone."

He stares down at his and Rory's linked hands, astonished by the realization.

"Y...you want to marry me?" Rory stuttered.

"Yeah." Jess answered.

"Oh my God. I don't know what to say."

"Um. Hi. I'm not done over here." Lorelai said.

"I think I feel the same way." Rory whispered.

"No. No!" Lorelai yelled.

"So what are we gonna do about it?"

"Nothing. You guys are going to listen me, hear my reasons and agree with me that this bad. Rory, Jess! Luke, help me out here!"

"Well, I don't know." Rory said completely ignoring her Mom. "We could get married before Yale, but that would be pretty quick. Or we could wait until later. Nothing's going to change between us right?"

"Right," Jess nodded. "But I don't want to wait."

"Me, either." Rory said.

"Well then," Jess said. "I know this is far from traditional, but neither one of us is real traditional. But...Lorelai Leigh Gilmore, will you marry me?"

"Yes, I will marry you Jesse James Mariano." Rory leaned over and kissed him.

They kissed for several long seconds before they finally broke apart.

"I don't have a ring." Jess said.

"That's alright."

"No, I want you to have a ring. You'll have a ring."

"Mmmmm. I love you."

"I love you, too." He leaned forward to kiss her again.

"Wait, when do we tell my grandparents?"

"Uh."

Lorelai heaved a sigh, finally giving up. "We have a dinner with them tonight. Do you want me to call and see if it will be okay if you bring Jess?"

"Yes, please." Rory smiled at her mother, all thoughts of anger and resentment forgotten. "Thanks Mom. Oh! Afterwards, can we have a movie night? Please!"

"Yeah. Movie or junk food?"

"Junk food. You pick the movie."

"I'm invited right?" Jess piped up.

"Of course. You.....you're family now." Lorelai said trying desperately to accept the new turn of events.

"You can stay in my room, Jess."

"Now hold on a minute. No one agreed to any of that." Lorelai said.

"Mom, come on, we're getting married."

"Rory......"

"Mom, it's not like he's going to steal my virginity."

"Why is that?"

"Ummm...."

"Rory you didn't!"

Rory nodded slowly.

"Oh my God Rory," Lorelai started all over again.

Rory interrupted her. "Well, you've been sleeping with Luke! When were you going to tell me that?"

Lorelai gasped as did Luke, who had been watching them suspiciously, with not a small amount of pride. Lorelai looked around to see who all might've heard. Kirk looked down at his plate. Ms. Patty's head was turned away from them but she was obviously intrigued.

"Rory!" She whispered.

"Well, you have."

A/N: Hey guys, yeah that was short. I know. I'm actually in a better mood than I was in the beginning. I think I may have two or three more chapters plus an epilog. Then I'll be done with this. Oh, I might bring Dean and Tristan into the next chapter. No, Tristan won't suddenly appear. Or, exactly. He's out of military school so it's OK for him to be back, right? Oh, yeah. I think I'm going to make Good Night, John Boy a sequel to this. It kind of fits. So in the following chapters, I'll try to lay that out. Okay, so I'm going to post this now. Review please. I'd appreciate it.
