chapter 8: At the Bridge
***
Lori hid in the hall, her back pressed to the wall, listening
to Rory and Lorelai talk about the date Jess had planned for that evening.
She had learned that he was taking Rory to the bridge for a romantic
picnic by moonlight. Lori was gagging inside. She couldn't believe that
a guy with such a bad boy image would ever think up such a sappy date.
But she knew that this was her chance.
She silently crept downstairs, and pulling out her cell phone,
she dialed the number to the house.
"I'll get it," she cried, not wanting anyone else to pick up
the phone. It took her a minute to find the phone, and she cursed her
mother and sister for being so absent minded.
She pretended to talk on it, just in case someone was listening,
and then hung up, going back upstairs to Lorelai's room.
"Rory," she said.
"Yah," she answered, turning around on the bed where she had
been gossiping with her mother.
"That was Jess. He said he had to cover someone's shift at
Wall-Mart tonight. He has to cancel the date," she lied easily.
Rory's face saddened. "Oh, okay. Thanks."
"Mmm hmmm," Lori said, going back downstairs. She had to work
fast while they were still up in Lorelai's bedroom. It was crucial that
her masquerade went unnoticed.
In the room they shared, Lori rifled through Rory's closet,
trying to find the appropriate outfit. It was important for her to wear
something conservative and casual, yet on the trendy side, like Rory
always did. Once she found the right outfit, Lori snuck upstairs for
a shower, making sure to use Rory's soaps and shampoos, to achieve
the perfect scent.
Lori's transformation into her sister had only one problem spot,
her belly button ring. The only thing she could do was change the dangley
chain she had on to a small pink stud, hoping it would go unnoticed.
She would have left it out, but it was newly pierced, and it would
close up by the end of the night, and Lori didn't want to half to go
through the pain of piercing it all over again.
"I'm going out," she yelled up the stairs before hurrying out the
door, not wasting precious time waiting for a response from upstairs.
She hurried off to Luke's to meat Jess for their date.
*****
It had only been an hour, but Lori could hardly handle it anymore,
she felt like she was going to throw up. It wasn't the food, which had
been really good. It was the fact that she was sitting on a little foot-
bridge with this "bad ass" guy who was reading aloud out of some book
of sonnets, occasionally stopping to comment on them and ask for her
interpretation.
It was all Lori could do to keep from rolling her eyes.
Finally, not able to stand it anymore, she decided to make her
move. She reached out and placed her hand gently on the book, causing
Jess to stop reading and look up at her.
"Jess," she said.
"Rory," he answered.
"We need to talk."
"Ah, shit," he said. "Don't give me that "it's not you it's me"
line or I swear to God-"
"Jess," she said softly, trying her best to imitate her sister.
"No, Jess. That's not what I want to say."
He blinked a couple of times, but didn't say anything.
"I just wanted to tell you that, well, I'm ready."
"Ready to...?" he said, not catching her meaning.
"You know," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.
"Make love to you."
*****
Jess' jaw dropped despite his efforts to keep it closed. He
couldn't believe his ears.
"Now?" he asked. She just nodded. "Well, don't you kinda want
to be like, more in the mood or something?" he asked.
She shook her head. "What more of a mood could you want? The
moon is shining, we're at our spot. We just had a wonderful picnic. It's
perfect."
Jess hesitated to answer. As much as he wanted this, and he
did really want this, he couldn't help but feel that something wasn't
right, that this didn't sound like Rory. But those thoughts were erased
from his mind when she leaned over and kissed him seductively.
"Is the mood right now?" she asked, breathless from the intense
kiss they had just shared.
Jess replied by pulling her close to him and unbuttoning her
shirt.
