EVERYONE - This is it! Last chapter! It kinda jumps years a lot and goes over what happens in the next couple years.

Also, very sorry but I withheld this a bit after I wrote it before it was posted because I decided I needed to wait a little longer before finishing it.

Two weeks later and Jess had been released from the hospital.

The four of them traveled home on the plane back to Stars Hollow.

And things went back to normal, mostly.

***

Six months later...

Rory and Jess sat in a small resturant near Hartford. They were laughing and comparing books they'd read recently since Jess had spent the last month in California with his dad for a visit.

"Rory?" Jess said softly as his hand reached for his pocket.

"Yes?" Rory asked him her blue eyes sparkling.

Sliding from his chair to one knee he opened up a small box. "Will you marry me?"

***

One year later...

Stars Hollow couldn't believe it.

Their little princess was getting married.

The wedding had been planned to be at the bridge which over the years Taylor still hadn't been able to change much to his misery.

So the whole town of Stars Hollow watched as Rory handed over her heart to the bad boy from New York.

Who turned out not to be so bad at all.

***

Ten months later...

Rory smiled at the little baby in her arms while Jess sat next to her on the hospital bed smiling a small smile. It was their child, their very own baby. His daughter.

***

Six years later...

Six-year-old Lori ran around the backyard of the Mariano home in Stars Hollow chasing her three-year-old brother William.

Rory and Jess sat on the swinging bench watching them while Lorelai and Luke argued over if Lorelai should change her eating habits.

Jennifer sat at the picnic table typing out a paper for school on her laptop. She was almost eighteen now but because of Lorelai holding her back a year when she was little she was only a junior.

"They're all growing up so fast," Lorelai said to Rory, "Jennifer, Lori, and William."

Rory nodded, "It's amazing."

Lorelai smiled, "That it is."
