What The Heart Wants 19
Usual Disclaimers Apply
When Rory woke up she didn't remember where she was. She slowly started to sit up, when she felt his arm across her stomach. She looked over at him and remembered the night before; they had laid together on the bridge and watched the night sky. She smiled and laid back down beside him. She watched him while he slept, then put one hand on his chest and felt his slow and steady breaths. She then moved her hand to his lips and traced the outline of his lips with her finger. She knew she loved him.
Jess felt a light touched on his face; he wasn't sure what it was. He slowly opened his eyes and saw two blue eyes staring back at him. Then he realized that it was Rory. He grinned but didn't speak, he just held her tighter, not wanting this moment to end. Rory dropped her hand from his mouth and put it back on his chest.
Rory: Jess.
She said in a quiet voice, he replied in the same low tune.
Jess: Yea?
R: I love you.
Jess's face didn't show any reaction, no emotion. Rory knew for sure that she had done wrong in saying that, in telling him her true feelings. She dropped her eyes from his; he smiled and pulled her face back up with his finger under her chin.
J: Rory, I love you too.
Rory smiled, until she realized that he had deliberately done that and she playfully hit him in the shoulder.
J: Ahh, what was that for?
R: For not responding like that.
J: Like what?
R: How you did, made me think I shouldn't have said anything.
Jess just hugged her.
J: You shouldn't have thought that.
R: Well I did.
She relaxed her head on his chest.
R: Jess.
J: What?
R: I'm hungry.
J: Rory you're always hungry.
R: So.
J: So, you're always hungry.
R: Jess.
J: What Rory?
R: Can we go to Luke's please?
J: Alright let's go.
R: Thanks.
Rory and Jess stood up. Jess put his arm around Rory's waist, Rory intertwined their fingers as she put her free hand around his waist, and headed too Luke's.
When Rory and Jess walked into Luke's, Lorelai was already there. Rory should have known she would be there. She practically lived there, especially since she and Luke got together. Lorelai was again sitting at the counter; she turned when she heard the bell on the diner door ring. Lorelai saw the glow that was coming from Rory; she knew that something had happened.
Lorelai: Hey sweets, how'd you sleep?
Rory and Jess walked up to the counter, Rory sat beside Lorelai, Jess beside Rory.
Rory: Good mom, how bout you?
L: Good, and Jess?
Jess: Same here.
Lorelai looked at Rory, she was practically floating.
L: Sweets can we talk?
Rory looked at Jess, then back to her mom.
R: Uh. Yes sure mom, what's wrong?
L: Oh nothing, just need to ask you something.
R: Ok shoot.
L: Uh. no we need to go upstairs, or outside.
R: Why?
L: Because lets go.
Lorelai jumped of the stool and grabbed Rory's wrist and pulled her off of her stool. Lorelai headed toward the door the stopped, looking from the door, to the stairs.
L: Lets go upstairs, nobody will hear us talking up there. And no one hears us talking means no gossip.
Lorelai turned and headed toward the stairs.
R: But mom, your half of what starts the gossip around here.
As Lorelai started to climb the stairs she gave Rory a wary look.
L: That's not true.
R: Is too.
At that Lorelai opened the apartment door and pulled Rory in, shutting the door behind them.
L: Spill.
Rory looked at Lorelai like she was crazy.
R: What are you talking about?
L: You know what I'm talking about.
Rory looked around the apartment. She figured since she didn't know what her mom was talking about she could stall and finally get her mom to explain and tell her what she took today.
R: Place looks nice.
L: Rory where not talking about Luke's apartment, where talking about what happened between you and Jess last night.
Rory's gaze returned to her mom's. To Rory's surprise Lorelai was smiling, if Lorelai was thinking what Rory thought she was thinking happened why was she smiling?
R: Who told you something happened?
L: No one, but if gravity didn't exist you'd be floating.
R: Well mom that doesn't exactly make any sense.
Rory could tell that Lorelai was thinking about what she just said.
L: Oh well, forget that. Think about the floating part. Why would you be floating if you could?
R: I don't know I didn't even know I would be floating if I could.
L: Sweets it's written all over your face, so is he good?
R: What?
L: Is he good?
R: Ew mom no! I mean I don't know!
Lorelai put her head down and brought her hand up to her chin, acting like she was in deep thought trying to figure out what Rory and Jess had done.
L: Ok I give, what happened. I know something happened.
Rory just giggled.
R: I love him.
Lorelai's mouth dropped. Even though he had matured, he was still Jess.
L: Excuse me, can you repeat that for me, I think I heard you just say that you love him.
R: You didn't think mom, you did.
L: Ok, ok I can accept that. But does he love you?
R: Yes.
L: How do you know? Did he tell you?
R: Yes, we told each other this morning.
A big smile appeared on Lorelai's face. She grabbed Rory by the hand and dragged her over to Luke's couch, she pulled her onto the couch.
L: Details please my dear! If you leave anything out, anything, I shall have to hurt you badly.
Rory grinned and started telling Lorelai everything that had happened since the day before after they left the diner.
Downstairs.
Jess was still sitting at the counter, Luke was standing behind it waiting for an order. There was only one person in the diner not counting Jess.
Jess: What do you think their doing up there?
Luke: I'm not sure, their Gilmore's no one will ever know anything for years to come.
Jess smirked as Caesar rang the bell telling Luke the order was up. Luke brought the order to Kirk who started asking Luke if there was a difference between ham and bacon. Aggravated Luke told him to shut up and eat or leave. Kirk shut up and let Luke go back to his slow conversation with Jess.
Just then Lorelai and Rory came back down the stairs.
J: Hey we were getting worried about you two.
They both took their sets at the counter. Jess put his arm around Rory and kissed her for head, while she rested her head on his shoulder. Lorelai just watched smiling, then she looked behind the counter at Luke.
Lorelai: Why didn't you and I ever do that?
Luke acted oblivious to what had happened between Jess and Rory.
Luke: Do what?
Lorelai just sighed and looked over and Jess and Rory, who apparently had forgotten that anyone else existed. They were just staring and hugging each other.
Luke looked at the two, then back at Lorelai.
Luke: I don't know. I'll be right back I have to get something from the back.
Luke headed to the storage room. Lorelai jumped off of her stool and followed him yelling.
L: Don't you try and get out of this one buddy.
Rory and Jess just watched the two disappear into the storage room. Jess slowly and silently slipped off of his stool and headed to the storage room.
R: What are you-
Jess put his finger over his mouth.
J: Shhh.
Rory nodded as she watched Jess sneak over to the storage room door. He slowly shut it and locked it. Rory jumped off of her stool and ran over to Jess.
R: What are you doing?
J: Maybe this will make them stop their arguing.
R: But Jess Luke has to run the diner.
Jess looked around seeing only Kirk, he smiled and looked back at Rory.
J: Well we can man the battle ship if anyone else comes in. Tell them that Luke went upstairs with a headache. Lorelai home for.. the same.
R: But Jess we both have to go to work tomorrow.
Jess again smirked.
J: We can call in, one day won't hurt us. Anyway, it's a family emergency.
Jess leaned down and kissed Rory firmly. When they pulled away Jess was smiling again.
J: Well?
R: Fine.
Rory took out her cell phone and started dialing works number. Jess tapped her shoulder and shook one finger and his head, then pointed up to the no cell phone sign. Rory sighed and headed out the door as Jess took Luke's position behind the counter.
