Chapter 7: The Wall Breaks
Disclaimer: As of right now, I own nothing, so don't sue me.
A/N: Ok, so I decided I was going to have this after graduation, if any of you noticed I said it was before. It just makes it easier and less complicated. It opens up how they have time to go to NY and all that jazz. Plus, my other tweak is that Jess will be graduating, and not leaving (obviously) except to go to NY, which you already know. OH! And since Rory just got her birth control pills today in the story we're gonna pretend she takes them and as soon as she starts she's protected, otherwise I'd have to go back and change stuff and I don't want to do that. Ok, I think that's all I have to say, so here ya go, chapter 7.
***Gilmore house, around 4:30 or so***
Lorelai runs into the house and into Rory's bedroom and sees her daughter on her bed pouting. Ignoring her daughter for the moment, she grabs Rory's travel bag and begins shoving clothes into it.
"Mom! What are you doing?!" Rory watched her mom, wondering why she was packing her bag.
"You're leaving! Not forever of course, because I'd miss you too much, but you are leaving! On a trip!" Lorelai continues to pack her bag, running into the bathroom to grab her toothbrush, toothpaste, all the stuff from the bathroom that she would need, with a few extra things she doesn't tell Rory about. Once she ran back into her daughter's room, she looked around to see what else Rory would need.
"Choose some books to take with, but not too many, it'll be really heavy if there were too many!"
Rory, still obviously confused, went to her bookshelf and grabbed a few books, Oliver Twist of course among those chosen.
"Okay! We're done, now come on! I bet they're already here!!!" (A half hour already has passed, you know how long it takes to pack a bag!) Lorelai grabbed the bag and dragged it out the door with her daughter following behind. Outside in the driveway she saw Luke's truck with Luke and Jess sitting inside, waiting for them.
Luke got out of the truck and helped them put the bag in the back before saying, "Alright, if I know Lorelai she told you that you were leaving but not with who, when, where, or why, am I right?"
Lorelai tried to look innocent, while Rory nodded, slowing figuring out where she was going, "I'm going with to New York?"
Luke just nods, "Yes, you are."
Rory looked rather shocked, and glanced behind Luke to see what Jess was thinking. His face was blank, and he wasn't even looking at her. A little hurt, but determined not to show it, smiled to Luke and nodded, "Thank you for letting me come with you, I'm really sorry about your sister," and she pulled him into a hug. Luke smiled softly and hugged her back.
"Well, come on, we have to get going, Bye Lorelai," Luke smiled shyly to Lorelai and she smiled back, oddly enough, just as shyly.
Rory sat down in the back seat of the truck (I can't remember if the truck has a back seat, so we're going to just say it does) and looked over at Jess, "hey."
"Hi," Jess glanced back quickly; just enough to show her he gave her his attention, then went back to staring into space.
Luke got back into the car and drove off, the drive to New York was quiet and nobody talked. Once there, they checked into a hotel near Jess' mom's apartment. They also got two rooms, one for Jess and Luke, one for Rory. And here is where we begin the story again.
Rory was just unpacking her things, after being told they'd be here for a little while, so she decided to put her clothes away in the dresser. She had her bag up on the dresser and was almost finished when she found a small box with a note taped to it. The note read:
Rory-
These are for you, just remember: be careful. I trust you.
Love, Mom
It was a box of condoms. Rory was shocked; she never thought her mom would give them to her. Well, she was on the pill, so the idea wasn't that shocking, but still. She put them in the nightstand next to her bed, not expecting anything to happen, but it never hurt to put them there. Her bags unpacked, she decided to not disturb the guys and lay on her bed and read instead. She turned most of the lights off and just let her side lamp be the lighting. Taking Oliver twist off her dresser she got comfortable and soon was lost in her own world.
Soon, a knock came at the adjoining door between the two rooms. Looking up, she saw Jess walk through the door quietly. Rory sat up and put her book down, "Jess?"
He looked up to look into her eyes. Those eyes, that always saw through his masks, and into his soul. It was no use hiding anything from her; she'd find out anyway, she always did. So instead of being standoffish he crawled onto the bed and laid his head on her shoulder. She wrapped her arms around him slowly and soon she heard the quiet sound of tears. Gently holding him, she laid back down with him and let him lean on her as he cried.
Finally, he had let down his walls and allowed himself to be sad, and allowed himself to cry. She gently stroked his hair, kissing the top of his head and closing her eyes. Slowly, his tears slowed and his breathing evened out, and he drifted off to sleep in Rory's arms. Soon after he fell asleep, Rory was asleep as well.
A/N: wow, it seemed so much longer when writing it. alwell, a lot happened and this was a good place to stop anyway. Reviews are nice. That was all.
