A/N: Ok, thanks everyone for the reviews. They mean lots! LCI-02/03 Rory doesn't care if Jess sleeps in the same bed as her or not, but Jess doesn't want to push something on her that she doesn't want. I know it's a tad out of char for Jess, but their older and he's matured a bit. And the reason they haven't had sex is because I'm not that type of person, just because they love each other don't mean their going to go off and do something. So that's the reasons, but I hope you still enjoyed the story. And to just me, I love horses, but I'm not all too good with the realistic drawings so I just draw the animorphs or whatever, I can't think of what their called. Like where their animals but yet they can walk and talk or whatever. Lol I know it sounds stupid, I don't care. But their really good, but I don't think their great. And I take art in school, so yea.

I hope your thumb heals soon too..unless it happened awhile ago, but thanks I'm not wearing the splint thingy anymore. It got really aggravating and started to stink...ewww! But I can bend my finger now, not all the way yet but it's getting there. Ok, sorry this is so long but thanks to everyone that reviewed, and reviews!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!! Keep dem reviews coming. Please.

P.S. I just wanted to let you guys know about my personal goal to reach 100 reviews before this story is over. I just want to, just because I want to. It's just I don't know why I just do. 50 was my first goal and you've all already past it, go ya'll!!!! Ok g2g write now bye.

What The Heart Wants 39



Usual Disclaimers Apply

When Rory woke up Jess's arm was around her holding her tight, she smiled and took in a deep breath. It felt nice to have him holding her when she woke up. She rolled over to face him and her smile got bigger when she looked into his deep brown eyes. He had been laying there awake, just holding her. Jess smiled at her.

"Hey."

Rory's smile stayed in place when she spoke.

"Hey, kinda early huh?"

Jess smirked.

"Yea, lets go back to sleep."

Rory did as he said and snuggled up against his chest then closed his eyes, Jess closed his too. The two had just fallen asleep when Lorelai and Luke walked in. Lorelai immediately walked over to the bed and just stared. Luke walked over to the window and started to pull the curtains back, Lorelai threw her hands in the air.

"No, no wait. Let me wake them."

Lorelai had a mischievous grin on her face, and then she jumped onto Rory and Jess. Neither moved. Lorelai started to shake Rory.

"Come on Rory you gotta get up."

Still no movement. Lorelai looked back at Luke-who was clearly laughing on the inside-and signaled to him to open the curtains. Luke did as Lorelai got up; both Rory and Jess started moaning. Rory tried to hide her eyes under the covers and behind Jess's body, Jess just hid under the covers and kept his eyes closed. Lorelai ran back over to the bed and started slapping them both.

"Oh no you don't! Get out from under those covers! I tried to wake you two the easy way, but then you use the hard way as an excuse to get under the covers no, come on get up." Lorelai paused. "Hey Rory, I never thought of that. Luke you are taking notes right?" Lorelai turned to Luke smiling. Luke just pointed to his temple. "It's all up here."

"Good." Lorelai turned back to Jess and Rory and started yelling and slapping them again. "Come on get up or I'm bringing out the cold water."

Jess and Rory slowly came out from under the covers and gave Luke and Lorelai a dirty look.

"What?" Jess said rubbing his eyes.

Rory just leaned against his chest. Lorelai looked at the two and scanned them. Her eyes remained on Jess for a long time, and then she spoke. "Jess do you have any clothes on?"

"Yes Lorelai." Jess said trying to remember.

"Mom, he's got boxer's on. See." Rory pulled the covers down some for Lorelai to see red and blue striped boxers.

"Rory!" Jess pulled at the covers.

Rory and Lorelai just giggled.

"Come on Jess get moving we gotta get out of here before traffic." Luke said heading to the dressers.

"I'm coming."

Jess and Rory got up and got dressed, then started packing. Once they were packed and all their luggage in Jess truck they were on the road again.

***

Jess brought Rory's suitcases up to her apartment; they had already put his in his apartment. Rory set her stuff down by her couch, Jess put the rest down by her couch also. Rory walked into her kitchen to check her messages, only two from work, and one from Lane.

"Hey Rory its Lane. You know I never got to ask you those questions bout you and Jess and spending the night. You know I'm kinda worried. Anyway, I was calling to see how you were and to see when Lorelai's wedding is. Call back ok, quit ignoring me girl. I'm just playin, love ya."

Rory smiled then hit delete. Jess walked up behind her and put his arms around her and his head on her shoulder.

"How's Lane?"

Rory turned to face him. She liked to look into his eyes when she talked to him.

"She's good."

"When is their wedding?"

"Moms?"

"Who else's?"

"Sorry, January twenty-fourth. We've got one month and ten days to wait." Rory smiled then leaned up and kissed him.

"Ah, so what are you planning to do while you wait?" Jess smirked.

"Don't know, maybe go to some clubs, and dance with some guy."

"Really?" Jess playfully raised an eyebrow. "And what exactly does this 'guy' look like?"

"Well, he's super hot, he kisses really good, and he lives three floors down."

"Really. Wow, that's gotta be nice huh?" Jess started to kiss her neck.

"Yea it really is, comes in handy if you just want to see him, or need to see him."

Jess stopped and looked at her. "So would this guy kill me if he found out I was kissing his girlfriend?"

"Nah, I think you could take him." Rory smiled.

"That's good, because I don't think I can stop myself." Jess started kissing her neck again.

Rory giggled and gently pushed Jess back some. "Well Mr. you might have to." Rory kissed him gently on the lips. Jess just smirked, another reason why he loved Rory. For how she stood up for what she believed in and wanted. Jess just smirked and followed Rory to help her unpack.
