Thena- You're now like my super reviewer! Thanks for your great review! I hope you enjoy this chapter as well as you've liked the others!
Java Junkie1- Thanks a whole lot for your review! My friend John (JB) does most of the graphics on my site but some of the story banners are done by me (A Rose For Rory, Cruel Summer, and Fear of Commitment) and any arts under the name Emily. I haven't posted this story yet but I will soon, I need John to make me a banner for it and like 3 other stories because I lost my program I used for them in a computer crash.
And now that I'm done rambling to my reviewers, here's the story.
***
Leah walked into Luke's Diner and waved to Jess as he came down the stairs from what, Leah guessed, was now his apartment since Luke lived with Lorelai and Jennifer in Lorelai's house.
She got a coffee to go and left the diner quickly. She wouldn't have come this early in the morning without showering if she hadn't been able to find her coffee machine to make herself coffee.
Leah unlocked her apartment door and threw out the empty coffee cup in the trashcan near the door.
She didn't know why she hadn't unpacked yet, but she'd do that when she got out of the shower.
***
Twenty minutes later Leah emerged from the shower and began to comb out her hair.
She noticed that the reddish color was beginning to fade and her true brown color starting to show through. She walked over to the cabinet in her bathroom for the red hair dye that she used. It started to come out after about a month so Leah redid is every once and awhile.
There wasn't any there.
Leah sighed and got dressed quickly covering her head with a baseball cap that she'd gotten when she stopped in Chicago on the way here.
***
An hour later Leah was back at Luke's diner eating more of a breakfast than just a cup of coffee while reading a book.
"So, Leah right?" Jess's voice said from behind her.
"Yeah," Leah said startled. "And you're Jess right?"
"Yeah," Jess said. "Do you mind if I," he motioned to the seat next to her.
"Oh no," Leah said quickly setting her book down. "Sit down." She smiled.
Jess sat. "So, how are you liking Stars Hollow?" he asked.
"Oh it's great. I love my class that I teach and this town is so close, everyone knows everyone."
"Yeah," Jess said. They were quiet for a minute and Jess stared at her hard. "You remind me of her," Jess said breaking the silence.
"Of who?" Leah asked.
"Rory," Jess said.
"Oh," Leah said. She pulled her baseball cap down farther to cover her hair and eyes more.
Jess looked at her harder. "Well I better get going," he said.
Leah nodded and he stood up and walked out of the diner.
Leah paid quickly and walked back to her apartment in a rush.
He knows.
