"Rory, I need to talk to you for a minute," Lori said when she
found her sister sitting at the dinning room table studying. Lorelai
had left the house, and now was her perfect opportunity.
"Sure," Rory said, lifting her eyes off the huge text book in
front of her.
"I don't know how to tell you this, there's really no easy way..."
"What?"
"Ror, I'm pregnant."
Rory stayed still, her face calm. She actually wasn't the least
bit surprised. After all, it was common knowledge that her sister slept
around. So it wasn't the biggest shocker.
"Who's the father?" she asked, interested to find out who the
unlucky victim was.
"You won't like this," she said nervously.
"Come on," Rory said. "What should I care?"
"Jess."
"Excuse me?"
"It's Jess," Lori answered evenly. "Jess is the father."
Rory's jaw dropped in surprise. "J-Jess?" she stuttered.
Lori nodded
"How could you Lori? My God, he's my boyfriend. Well, he was
up until a month ago-" And then it hit her. She let out a little laugh.
"I get it. I totally get it now. You slept with him!"
"Well, how else would I be pregnant?"
"No! You slept with him and he broke up with me because of it.
What? So are you two a secret couple or something now? Have you been
going behind my back and hooking up with him? Come on Lori! What?"
Lori stared at her feet. "It's not like that."
"Than what is it like?" Rory yelled at her.
"It was only once," she insisted.
"When?" Lori was silent. "When Lori?" Rory screamed.
"The night before he broke up with you," she said softly. Lori
couldn't help but feel sorry for her sister. She knew that whatever
feelings had motivated her to do what she did, her actions were completely
unreasonable.
"Why would he do that to me?" she whispered.
"Rory, it wasn't his fault," Lori insisted.
"How could it not be his fault?"
"I made him," Lori said. "I pretended to be you."
Rory looked at her sister and was filled immediately with anger
and hatred. She ran out the door, leaving her sister calling after her.

Jess saw her running down the street long before she reached
the diner. So when she did, he was staring curiously at the hysterical
girl in front of him.
He walked around the counter to ask her what was wrong, but before
he got a word out, Rory punched him as hard as she could. Jess took a
step back, more out of surprise than pain, because her punch didn't hurt,
he just wasn't expecting it.
"Rory?" he asked, touching his nose.
"How could you?" she yelled at him.
"What?" he asked, not knowing what she was talking about.
"How could you?" she said again, this time barely above a whisper.
Without thinking, she moved into his arms and started crying into his
chest.
Jess just stroked her silky hair, wondering what was going on.
