A/N: Thanks everyone for all the reviews. I know that they would recognize each other, but the song that I used in the first chapter What The Heart Wants by Collin Raye gave me some inspiration for this story. So I decided to change a few of their looks and just ignore the rest. Hopefully you guys can ignore it too. I'm not saying that in a mean or rude way, but hopefully this will turn out the way that I'm hoping it will. Thanks for the reviews, and my other chapter is done I'm pretty sure. Unless you all review telling me to write another chapter then I will, but let me know how you think it should go. Ok thanks again!

What The Heart Wants

Summary

Five years into the future, Jess never came back to Rory. Rory moved to New York and got a job there. Rory left Stars Hallow right after she got back from Europe. Rory finally finds the man she wants to spend her life with.

Usual Disclaimers Apply: I do not own any of these characters

Jess was standing by the front door just like he was told. There was something about Lorelai, like he knew her or something. He hadn't asked her where she moved here from yet though, he intended to also! He wasn't going to let anything get by him. He heard a door shut and looked up expectantly, but it was just Mr. and Mrs. Leb. The elderly couple next door. He sighed, he was hoping that she hadn't stood him up. He sat down on the bench that was down by the front door.

Just as he had sat down Rory came down the stairs.

R: What are you sitting for? I thought we were going out?

J: Oh no we are, I. I kinda thought you had stood me up.

Jess stated while smiling, he hadn't ever been stood up, he had always stood his dates up. This would have been his first time. But luckily she wasn't standing him up, she did see something interesting in him. Jess opened the door for her, she smiled. Her smile looked so familiar!

They decided to walk to the new pancake place for breakfast. Rory ordered a large coffee and some chocolate chip pancakes. Jess just stared. "Rory loved chocolate chip pancakes." Rory looked at him with a half grin.

R: What, what's wrong?

Jess just kept staring, could it really be Rory? Could they possible be in the same apartment complex? No that was insane.. Wasn't it? Rory looked at the waiter, then back at Jess.

R: Uh. Milo I think you need to order.

J: Oh, yea of course, sorry. Um. I'd like some coffee and eggs please.

Jess decided now was as good as ever to ask Lorelai about where she lived before here.

J: So uh. Lor where did you live before you moved here?

Jess leaned back onto the booth seat, he looked at Rory across from him. "Boy if she says she's from Stars Hallow I'm going to freak!" Jess just kept repeating to himself.

R: Well I lived in Hartford for, I think it was two months..

"Oh thank God, she must be from New York or something. It's not Rory." Rory continued.

R: But for my whole life I lived in a little town called Stars Hallow, it's like right out of Hartford, like thirty minutes with traffic.

Jess just stared. "She didn't just say Stars Hallow. No she couldn't have. I'm just hearing things. Right? No I'm not, its too big a coincidence Lorelai, that's Rory's full name. I can't believe I was so stupid!"

R: Milo, hello. Are you ok?

J: Oh yea, sure I'm fine. Did you say something?

R: Uh yea I asked where you are from.

Rory said kind of grinning.

J: Oh well, I'm from a bunch of places. New York's where I was born though.

R: Oh yea, well where else have you been?

"Ah she had to ask that question, I can't let her know it's me. She's so beautiful."

J: Ah well lets see, New York, California, Hartford, and here.

R: Wow! I've always wanted to go to California.

"There's something about him, but I'm not sure what.. He looks so familiar." Rory says to herself.

J: Yea well I lived there with my dad.

"Oh shoot! Now she's going to suspect something! She knows I left to California to live with my dad, shoot!"

"Wait did he just say he lived there with his dad? Jess lived in California with his dad. This is just to big a coincidence."

Rory shakes her head.

R: Wow, I've just always wanted to go there.

The waiter brings them their food and they begin eating.
