Author's Note: I'm sooo sorry about the problems with the text on the last chapter, I reloaded it, so it should look better. Oh, and Jess had a job in California. So he could afford to take a plane half way there, and a bus the rest of the way.


You're A God

Chapter 3: Another Favor

(Luke's Apartment-8:30pm)

The phone rings as Luke walks into the apartment. He came up to get something, but he forgets about it and answers the phone.



Hey, Luke, a familiar voice replied.

What is it, Jess?

Jess couldn't think of the best way to put it, I want to come live with you again.

Luke began in a warning voice, but he was cut off.

Luke, I'll do anything. I'll work for you, I'll redo my senior year of high school, I'll even try to get good grades!

Jess...I don't know...it's just...well...fine. But I'll the same rules apply.

Thank you, I'll see you in about an hour.

Jess, where are you?

Uh, a bus stop in Hartford.



Well, bye.

Oh, and Jess?



Don't break her heart. With that, Luke hangs up and goes back downstairs.

*****************************

(Luke's Diner-9:15pm)

The diner is closed, but the lights are on. Luke is standing behind the counter and staring out the window, looking thoughtful.

*****************************

(Star's Hollow Streets-9:35pm)

Jess steps off the bus, and walks towards Luke's. He walks into the diner.





Well, I'm tired. Goodnight.



Jess heads upstairs. Luke stands there for a second, and then turns off the light. He goes upstairs.

(Luke's Apartment-Same Night-11:10)

Jess gets up from bed, still wearing the same clothes as when he got there. He walks out the door, down the stairs, through the diner, and out onto the street. He heads toward the bridge, when he arrives there, there is a shadowy figure sitting in the middle, looking thoughtful. Jess immediately knows it's her. She doesn't even notice him though.

You know, if you think too much, Jess began,You can really hurt you're head.

Rory didn't even look up, or seem surprised.

Okay, not the greeting I was looking for, Jess said as he was walked over and sat next to her, but I get what I deserve. He hoped for a response, but got nothing. Well, if it's any consolation, Jess started again hopefully, I can take you to the prom this year, if you still would go with me. This got Rory's attention.



I'm going back to Stars Hollow High, and this time, I promise you, I will graduate with honors.





They both look like they aren't sure what to do.

Jess, do you want to just start this relationship over? Rory asked.





*Music begins to play*

*'Cause, I'll be better, I'll be stronger.
For the truth, I know takes longer.
I've the cunning of the tiger and the
Wisdom of the trees. I won't be sad,
Refuse the sorrow.
I look forward tomorrow.*

Again, they both look like they aren't sure what to do. Slowly, they get closer, and closer, until their lips meet.

*I'll release my anger,
'Cause I'm proud to be a dread.

I'm kissing you.*

The kiss passionate, yet gentle and loving.

*Pride can stand a thousand trials
The strong will never fall
But watching stars without you,
My soul cried. Heaving heart is full of pain,
Oh, oh, the aching.*

They finally pull apart. They sit for awhile, staring at the sky.

*'Cause I'm kissing you, oh.
I'm kissing, oh.*

I've got to go, but I'll see you tomorrow. Rory said reluctantly.

Okay, bye.



They walk off the bridge, and go their separate ways.

*Touch me deep, pure and true! Gift to me forever.
'Cause I'm kissing you, oh
I'm kissing you.*

(Gilmore Residence)

Rory walks into the house and goes straight to her room. She lays on her bed, closes her eyes and smiles.

*Where are you now?
Where are you now?*

(Luke's Diner)

Jess walks into the diner, and heads upstairs. He walks into the apartment and goes into his room. He lays on his bed, closes his eyes and smiles.

*'Cause I'm kissing you
I'm kissing you, oh, ohhhh!*




Sorry it was so short. I hope you liked it! Review! Review! The song was I'm Kissing You by Des'ree.
