*Hey you guys..the first chapter was just filler and guess what...so is this one!

HAHA! I am reeeeally hyper.coffee will do that to you! I am gonna start before

I scare anymore people.*

Jess ran down the stairs from the apartment, slinging his book bag over his

shoulder.

"Later," he called to Luke, halfway out the door.

"Remember to be here by three-thirty to start you shift," yelled Luke.

"I didn't hear that," said Jess

As Jess was walking down the sidewalk to Stars Hollow High he saw a crowd

gathered around the bus stop. Jess was walking by Babette, Miss Patty, and another

crowd of women when he heard them say something that piqued his interest.

"Poor girl.."

"Crushed she is.."

"He works at Doose's..."

Jess could only thing of think of one thing so he pushed his way through the

crowd to be met with a crying Rory huddled on the bench.

"Rory?" he asked quietly.

Rory looked straight at Jess with tear-filled eyes and said, "Jess, please take me

home."

Putting his arm around her, Jess helped Rory up and pushed his way through the

Crowd, heading toward the Gilmore homestead.

(At the Gilmore House)

When and only when they reached the door did Jess take his arm off of Rory's

shoulder. Rory pulled out her key and opened the door.

"Bye Jess. Thank you so much for helping me home."

"Do you need me to help you with anything. Make you coffee?"

"As tempting as that sounds I just think that I need some rest."

"Would I be prying if I asked you what in the hell happened?"

"No.Dean broke up with me..I'm actually kind of relieved."

"So why are you so upset then?"

"Because he opened my eyes to some pretty emotional feelings that I have kept

bottled up for awhile."

"Well I gotta go to school..you sure you'll be OK?"

"I'm positive.." said Rory emphatically.

"Bye"

"Bye"



Rory walked into her bedroom and changed out of her Chilton uniform and put

on a pair of sweet pants and tee shirt. She flopped down on her bed and pulled out



Oliver Twist.



"If only Jess could know how I fell," she said wistfully.

Minutes later, Rory fell into a deep sleep.



It was nine by the time Jess left Rory's house. He didn't feel like going to school

anymore after the eventfulness of the day. So he climbed up the trashcans outside of

Luke's and climbed in through the window into his newly remodeled room. He changed

out of his jeans into sweat pants and a Metallica T-shirt. Jess ambled over to his book

case and picked out Oliver Twist to read for the hundredth time.

Jess read for about five minutes and then just as he was about to fall asleep he

murmured, "If only Rory knew how I felt."

Then he drifted off into a dreamful sleep.

*Tune in soon, same time, same channel. Next chapter they get their freak on (not in that

way you perv!) I just like saying that. Weirdo stuff happens*
