Chapter Seven: Episode Two: Kiss Me…Or Tell Me You Love Me

"Say it again," I said.

Jess smirked, and leaned in close. "Rory is my girlfriend." Then he kissed me, and I smiled.

"Say it again." Jess rolled his eyes, and looked at his watch.

"Break's over."

I frowned, as he got up from his bed. "Since when are you ever on time? Are you trying to get away from me?"

"No, Luke's been paying me more when I'm right on time." I just stared at him. "Which means I can buy you more things." I stood up, and kissed him.

"That sounds about right." I told him.

"Let's go, I'll get you some coffee." I grinned as we headed downstairs.

"Why hasn't he told me yet?" I asked Lane, pacing up and down her bedroom.

"Two weeks!" Lane exclaimed.

"So?" I said.

"Well…what would you say if he did tell you? Would you actually say the same thing?" she asked. I thought about that for a second, and Lane smiled. "See…you're not even ready."

I frowned, and sat down next to her on the bed. "Lane…I need a friend."

"Do you love Jess?" she asked.

"I don't know." I admitted.

"Then why are you worried that he hasn't told you yet?" I remained silent. "I mean, say he told you and you didn't respond, hello? Remember what happened between you and Dean?"

"No, remind me, please, I think I forgot." I told her.

"Three month anniversary. He told you he loved you. You froze, and bye bye Dean! Ringing any bells?" Lane asked me.

"Oh sure, I remember, junkyard." My eyes suddenly widened. "He better not tell me in a junkyard." Lane slapped her forehead in defeat, and lay back on the bed. I followed suit, and turned to face her. "What about a book store? Is that romantic?"

After my visit to Lane's, I decided to go for a walk to clear my head. Why did I care about this? I mean, what if Lane was right, what if Jess did tell me and I just froze, and we broke up? That would totally suck.

"Rory!" I turned around. Dean. Good, I don't even have to pretend any more. "Hey," he said, wrapping his arm around my waist.

"Um…Dean."

"I know, I know. Marci, but it's over between us, we can be together now." Then he kissed me.

"Dean!" I exclaimed, before breaking myself free from his grasp.

"Rory!" God, people just love using my name today. Jess. Oh God. He didn't see the kiss did he? Judging by his facial expression, he did.

"Jess! Jess! Wait!" Oh, he's really going to tell me he loves now.
