Chapter 7: The Past is Over
"Lorelai, can I talk to you?" asked Chris.
Confused, Lorelai got up and followed him into the living room. Chris sat down and Lorelai sat down next to him. Chris hunched forward and clasped his hands together. They sat there for a few moments. Lorelai could hear her parents and Rory talking.
"Okay," said Chris, finally. "Lorelai, don't marry Luke."
"What?" Lorelai was shocked.
"I'm sorry," said Chris. "But I'm not happy with Sherry. Look Rory's our kid we should be together at least for her sake. I love you. I don't want to lose you. I'm sorry, but I can't lose you."
Before Lorelai could say anything, Chris pressed his lips against hers. Lorelai gave in and kissed him back, but the heat that Lorelai felt every time Chris kissed her was gone. Now it felt empty, like he was her brother. Lorelai pulled away.
"I'm sorry Chris," said Lorelai. "But, our daughter is moving out of the house and getting married. You have a family with Sherry. You can't abandon it. And I don't want to hurt you, but that was like kissing my brother."
Chris looked confused. He kissed her again. Same old empty kiss. He pulled away.
"You're right," said Chris, pulling away. "That was just like kissing my sister."
"Chris I think if things were going to work out we would have been married by now," said Lorelai. "But, I don't think we're going to happen."
Chris nodded and grabbed his coat. "I'll see you at the wedding," said Chris. He left. Lorelai knew she hit him where it hurt, but she just lost the heat with him. She told Rory all about it during the car ride home. Then they went back to the Jess thing.
"I'm scared, Mom," said Rory. "I don't want anything to ruin the wedding."
"Does Dean know that Jess is coming?" asked Lorelai.
"No."
"I think you should tell him tonight. In person."
"Now?"
"Yeah."
"I don't know."
"Honey, I'll be listening upstairs."
"Okay."
They picked up Dean and went back to the house. Dean and Rory sat down on the couch. Rory took a deep breath. I should get ready to give back the engagement ring, thought Rory.
"Dean, Luke invited Jess," said Rory, slowly. "And Jess is coming."
"Oh," said Dean. Rory couldn't read the expression on his face.
"Dean, I'm sorry," said Rory. "I begged Luke not to invite him, but Luke said he wouldn't come if he saw I was getting married. But, he's coming. Look, I just want you to know that I don't want to lose you this time. I want to be with you forever. You were the first guy I kissed. I want you to be the last."
Dean smiled. "I'm glad to hear that," said Dean.
He leaned in and kissed her. Tingles of electricity shot up and down Rory's body. Rory leaned back so she was lying down and pulled Dean down with her. Dean's lips moved up and down her neck. Then he went back up to her lips. She pushed the coat that he was still wearing off. Then he pulled off her coat. She started to take off his sweater, when a voice yelled: "HEY!"
Rory and Dean looked up. Lorelai was leaning over the stairs.
"No sex in here," said Lorelai. "Especially, when I'm in the house."
Rory was embarrassed. She forgot her mother was upstairs. Dean chuckled.
"Sorry," he said, as Lorelai went back upstairs. "I have to go."
"Can't you stay a little longer?" said Rory, still lying down. "Mom can't hear anything from my room, you know."
"It's very tempting," said Dean. "But, my parents need me to stay with Clara."
"Okay," said Rory. "You think we should wait until we're married?"
"Yeah, I think so," said Dean. "I'm sorry."
"It's okay," said Rory, running her finger through his hair. "But, I just want you to remember, you're the one I want to be with now. Not Jess."
Dean kissed her then left. Now more than ever, Rory was excited to be married to him and for the first time in two weeks, she wasn't worried about Jess.
A/N: Okay, here's another chapter. I know I didn't need to add the thing between Rory and Jess, but I wanted to put a little comedy in it. Anyways, Chapter 8: Jess's Arrival is coming soon.
