A/N: here's the next chapt.!! Hope you enjoy!
RORY'S ROOM
"Hey guys look who's here..." She pointed to the now cleaned up Jess.
"MR. MAWIANO!!!" Yelled Lori as she ran to hug him. He picked her up and put her on his hip. But Lorelai took her and motioned for Luke to leave so that Rory and Jess could be alone...
Jess just stared at her....and she at him....."hi...."
"Hey....I just wanted to thank you Jess...for calling an ambulance..."
"Oh...uhhh...of course....it wasn't hard you know just picking it up out of your purse and dialing the numbers and then you know tellin the people that you had been shot twice and that you had fainted...." Rory looked at Jess rather amused at how much he was rambling....he NEVER rambled...he must have been really nervous. But he continued.... "So uhh....how...how are you......cuz if you aren't good...i can leave ya know no problem!" Jess asked backing up to the door...
"No......Jess.....i need to ask you something..."
"Anything..."
"Ok...Jess....could you uhhh...if anything were to happen to me....." Jess looked at her with fear and pain in his eyes... "Would you take Lori and take care of her for me...."Jess was stunned...he loved Lori...but he barely knew the kid..... "Lori and I talked about it...and I asked her if she would like to have you as a ya know 'daddy' in her life and...and she said yes.....she loves you....it's weird....you two don't know each other very well..."
"Yeah...i know..." There was a period of silence and then he spoke again... "Uhh.....Rory.....?"
"Yeah...."
"I will take care of your daughter.....even though I know nothing is going to happen to you....."
"Thank you so much Jess....you have no idea what it means to me.....but Jess...I need to talk to you.....about...that night......" Jess just stood there and she motioned for him to sit and he did....she wanted to explain...and now he had the chance to actually listen...he never thought that he would be able to tell her how sorry he was for the way he had acted....but he knew everything except what had happened that night.....that horrifying night that he left....and she told him.....and by the end of her story....he was mortified.....he saw her flinch and wince all throughout her story as she remembered the way Dean had treated her.....he couldn't believe that someone could hurt this precious being...
"WHAT! I'M GOING TO KILL HIM!!!!!" He got up to leave but she put her hand on his arm to stop him.
"Jess...don't....I already told the doctors everything and they are going to notify the police and get him arrested...ok?" He paused and then slowly nodded and then she finished the story and by that time she was holding his hand. She looked down and saw the swollen, bloody knuckles...."What happened?" She asked guesturing towards his hands.
"Oh..it was nothing....i was just....a little upset a while back....it's no biggie...."
"Do they hurt...?" She began to sound even weaker than before...Jess began to get a little worried....
"No...not much..." And just as he was about to tell her how sorry he was for the way he had treated her and the way he had left her and.....her heart moniter made a somewhat loud beeping noise...Jess stood up and looked at it...HER HEART HAD STOPPED!!!!! Jess ran to the door. He didn't see ANYONE! He ran around yelling at the top of his lungs for help!! Finally after what seemed like 10 minutes (it was really only 10 sec.) Jess found a nurse and began yelling and she got a doctor right away. The doctor wheeled her off into surgery knowing what the problem was.....she was bleeding internally....again....
Jess couldn't believe what was happening!! He didn't understand!!!! Why was this happening!!! Lorelai and Luke had heard some insane maniac yelling for help and thought it sounded like Jess so they ran to see what was going on....it WAS Jess.....they ran up to him and began throwing questions at him. "What happened! Is she gonna be ok!? Did the doctor say anything to you at all!!"
" STOP IT!! JUST STOP IT!!! I DON'T KNOW OK!!!!!!!!!!" Jess was on the verge of tears..... "Stop it....." he began crying just then realizing that he didn't get to tell her how sorry he was....
ONE HOUR LATER
"Excuse me...Mr. And Mrs. Danes...your daughter....well...the good thing is- "
"Good thing!! How could there be a good thing!!!!" Yelled a very upset and impatient Jess.
"The good thing is..." The doctor continued, "is that she's still alive....." Everyone's eyes got larger... "But....she fell back into a coma....i'm sorry....there's no more I can do....we'll just have to sit and wait....." Everyone's faces fell at the sound of these words comming out of the doctor's mouth....
3 and ½ MONTHS LATER
Jess had taken in Lori while Rory was in the hospital....and they became very very close. Lorelai, Luke, Jess, and Lori had all moved back to Stars Hollow coming to New York whenever they could to see Rory...which was almost all the time....one night Lori came into Jess's room and felt around for Jess's sleeping body.
" Are wu still awake?"
At the sound of Lori's voice, Jess Mariano quickly sat up. "Yeah I'm
up...can I get you
somethin?" He was still half asleep obviously.
"I can't sweep" The 5 year old whinned.
"Oh ok...come over here and lay down and tell me what's up..."
She came over and layed down beside him...but as soon as she layed down
she fell fast asleep causing Jess to smile at her. He admired her
features. "She looks so much like..... Stop it Mariano...just stop
it...." But he couldn't help it...a dam of memories broke, flooding into
his mind......he remembered the first time that he met Rory.He couldn't
believe the beauty his eyes had be-fallen upon. He knew he was in love
with her right then.
* * *
"hey!"
"hey.."
"i'm rory."
"yeah i figured"
"nice to meet you."
"Wow aren't we hooked on phonics."
" yeah I read alot. do you read?"
"not much."
"ya know I could loan ya that. it's really good."
"no thanks."
* * *
"you bought a copy?? I told you I'd lend you mine!"
"It is yours."
"you stole my book...."
"no. borrowed it..."
"ok that's not called a trick that's a feliny."
"I just wanted to put some notes in the margins for ya."
"you've read this before..."
"about 40 times...."
"I thought you said you didn't read much..."
"Well...what is 'much'?
* * *
"Are you still with dean?.....come on Rory Yes or No are you still with
dean!"
"Yes! I'm still with Dean, Yes."
"Glad to hear it."
"Glad to tell ya."
"See ya around."
"Whatever."
* * *
"He was right about......all of it......"
"So....what now...??"
" are you definitely broken up with Dean?"
"Yeah I'm definitely broken up with Dean...."
"Ok...there's something I got to take care of then...."
* * *
Jess couldn't help but think how badly he must have hurt Rory the night
that he just left her. What was he thinking....yeah...she had hurt
him....but...that was no reason to leave her.... They could have worked
it out....." you should have let her give you and explanation!!! You're
such an
idiot!" Jess realized he was talking outloud and Lori was sound asleep
next to him, he decided to go take a walk. He got up, got dressed, and
walked out the door.....and of course...his feet lead him straight to the
bridge,the Stars Hollow bridge where he and Rory used to spend their
afternoons and evenings together. He had overreacted and he knew it....he
wanted to kill himself.....if only this bridge stood a little higher from
the ground....he could just........... jump.......and end his
misery......but....alas he thought of Lori.....he couldn't just leave
her....abandon her..... " Lori mimicks her mother's appearance to a
perfect point!! Was she here just to torment me?!? To be my reminder
every single day of what I had done!!!!????!!!!! A mini Rory!!??!!" Jess
found himself yelling and screaming at the top of his lungs and then he
fell
to his knees pleading with God to let the love of his life come out of
this terrible coma she was put in. Luke, just like most of the town,
heard Jess and went to him telling his wife Lorelai, who could sleep
through a hurricane, where he was going......"Jess?...Jess? Is that you?"
Luke asked into the dark only hearing whimpering...then he saw a dark
figure who's shoulder's were shaking
violently. "Jess...." As soon as he said his name this last time Jess got
up and ran to Luke and just hugged him crying his heart out. Jess didn't
cry much...but this had been building up inside of him for so long....he
just....couldn't keep it in any longer. Luke comforted his nephew. He had
been angry with him for hurting Rory but then he saw how sorry Jess was
and just could't be angry with him anymore. After about 20 minutes of
crying Jess stepped out of Luke's arms and Jess just looked at him.
Jess's face was read and his eyes were puffy, tears were dancing in his
eyes willing themselves to fall. And then Jess spoke with a shaky
voice."Luke...why do memories have to hurt so much?? I loved her
luke....I LOVE her...." And Jess continued to cry and Luke pulled him
back into a hug and Jess just cried into his shoulder once again. (A/N:

Sorry...it just made sense...)
