The End Of The Beginning.

Rory closed her book at looked around the store once more. Unable to find who she was looking for she sighed and got up. She made her way out of the store and onto the streets. She started walking back to the hotel, not paying attention to anything around her. She was suppose to meet Jess at the book store an hour ago but he hadn't shown up yet.

They had hung everyday together since they had met. The second day they had hung some more at the book store and then the next few days Jess showed her around, took her to the coolest music store, took her to a concert and so much more they had been pratically together at least 12 hours together everyday. They had talked a lot. About anything and everything. Rory told him everything that had happened with Dean and he consoled her. They had come so close in such a tiny amount of time, Rory even considered him one of her best friends but for some reason she starting feeling guilty. Like if she was cheating on Dean which she wasn't but she still felt like it. It didn't matter anymore cause she was leaving tomorrow and Jess had stood her up. They had the best of time in the last few days but today for some reason he hadn't shown up.

Suddenly she bumped into someone and fell to the ground. She felt an arm grab her and pull her up.

"Sorry about that Rory."The familiar voice said. Rory looked up to see who said her name. There stood none other than Jess. He wasn't alone though. A long black hair girl with brown eyes stood there glaring at Rory. Rory felt betrayed and for a split second, jealous. Rory dusted herself off, waved to Jess and stepped aside to walk around Jess and his "friend."

"Where you going?"Jess said before she could walk any further.

"Um, back to the hotel."She said putting some hair behind her ear.

"I thought we were going to hang out."He said a little confused.

"Yeah we were an hour ago."She said kicking an imaginary rock.

"I lost track of time."He said emotionless. Rory wondered how he could keep that same face on always. Was he really good at it or did he really not care?

"Yeah, um, I guess you did."Rory said fidgeting with her coat button. They stood there in silence except for the sound of the girl chewing on a piece of gum.

"I'm going to go."Rory said nervously and turned around.

"Wait."Jess said. Rory stopped and turned around one more time. Jess said something to the girl who seem to protest against what Jess was telling her. The girl finally seem to give in and turned around and walked away but not before glaring at Rory one last time. They still remained silent.

"So are we going to stand here in silence all day or what?"Jess asked after what seemed forever.

"No, you are. I'm still going back."She said turning around and walking towards the hotel. Jess grabbed her arm and pulled her so she was facing him.

"Let me go."Rory said in a warning tone.

"Tell me what's wrong first."He said. They were so close Rory could feel Jess's breath on her.

"Nothing's wrong."She whispered.

"Then why are you acting this way?"He asked.

"And what way would that be?"They stood there looking at each other in silence.

"She's not who you think she is."Jess said after a moment.

"And who would that be?"Rory asked intrested.

"My girlfriend."Rory looked at her feet and back at Jess. She then looked at his hand which was still holding her arm and then darted her eyes back to his.

"I could care less about her or you having a girlfriend."Rory said.

"Why you acting this way then?"He asked calmly.

"Cause I realized how wrong this is! I love Dean and I can't be spending my time with you anymore!"She said frustrated.

"Why not?!It's not like we did anything!"Jess yelled back.

"But it feels like it and I can't do that to Dean, to you!"Rory said her eyes full of sorrow. Jess pulled Rory to him and brushed his lips against hers. Shock quickly melted into passion and Rory grabbed on to Jess as the kiss became more than innocent. As if the gods were sending a warning, it started raining breaking Rory from the trance she was in and back to reality. Rory pulled away and took a few steps away.

"I don't love you. I love Dean. I'm going back to him tomorrow!"She said yelled threw tears mixing with the rain.

"That's it. Run back to your perfect boyfriend in your perfect world." Jess said and turned away from Rory. Rory turned around and ran back to the hotel, not daring once to look back. She didn't like Jess or love him, she loved Dean. Dean was her past and her future. Jess was nothing but only a small amount of her past and she would never see him again.

Or so she thought.
