Chapter 8: Jess's arrival.
A few months had passed and now it was December 19th. Rory and Lorelai's wedding would be the next day. Jess walked into Luke's holding a small black bag. Luke agreed to let Jess stay with him. Luke was cleaning off the counter tops when he walked in. It was six o'clock.
"Hey, Luke," said Jess. "Can I help with anything?"
"No, thanks," said Luke.
Jess sat down at the counter.
"Listen, thanks for letting me stay here," said Jess. "And thanks for inviting me to your wedding. I have your present in my bag if you want it. Otherwise, I can just put it with the other gifts."
"Jess, why are you kissing up?" asked Luke.
"What?"
"You're acting like a goody-goody. What happened to the old Jess?"
"He grew up."
"You're trying to cover up something."
"Look, Luke, I'm trying to be mature about Rory getting married. I just didn't think it would be to him."
"Jess she moved on. It's been four years."
"I know. I just still can't believe it's over."
Luke and Jess settled in. Then they ate dinner and then went to sleep. Jess woke up at 6:00 A.M. He couldn't fall back asleep. He got dress and went outside. He walked over to the bridge where Rory was sitting at the dance marathon after Dean had broken up with her. He had felt triumphant that he had won and yet he felt bad for Rory that a two- year relationship was broken because of him. Well, now they were together again. I guess Dean is feeling triumphant now, thought Jess as he went into the school gym. He looked around. The lights were on. Across the gym near the bleachers was.
"Rory?" Jess called. Rory was there. Sitting on the gym floor. What was she doing there on her wedding day?
A/N: Short I know. I wanted Jess to have a portion of the story. Anyways Chapter 9: Cold Feet is coming soon.
