*Disclaimer: You really think that if I owned Gilmore Girls I'd have my stories on here? They'd be on TV silly! Hehe *

Ok people, I decided to be nice and give you another chapter. I'm kind of worried though, because nobody's reviewed for the last one yet L well I guess we'll just have to hope for the best. Anyways, here's the next chapter – enjoy!

~Last Chapter~

To get her to stop talking, Luke leaned in slowly. She placed the coffee mug on the counter without taking her eyes off of him. Lorelai closed the distance. Their lips touched hesitantly, and tingles were sent up and down their bodies. After a split second, she backed away, surprise in her eyes.

"Well if you'd wanted some coffee for yourself, I would have saved some. Umm, I have to go find Rory…Bye…"

~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~

Rory knocked on the door, shivering slightly, not from the cold, but from nervousness. It opened to reveal Jess of course, with a book in his hand.

"I see you brought spares"

"Chilton taught me to always be prepared"

"I thought that's what boy scouts were for."

"Even though I liked their scarf things, they still wouldn't let me in."

"I'm sorry, it must have scarred you for life"

"It has, I've been combating it with coffee though."

"And so we see the real use for the dark liquid."

"Yup"

They stood there for a little while, Rory still on the outside, and Jess leaning nonchalantly against the doorframe.

"Aren't you going to invite your guest in from the cold?"

"It's Hawaii – it isn't cold, but…Welcome Rory, would you like to come inside where it's warm?"

"I surely would," she said in her best southern accent. She walked into the room, giving Jess a smile.

"So what books did you bring?"

"Oh the usual, Oliver Twist, and Jane Eyre. What do you have? Hemmingway? I should have guessed. Really Jess how can you stand them, they're so boring, the plot sucks, and there's nothing to remember."

"You just haven't learned to appreciate it yet. It's like coffee – an acquired taste."

"For your information," Rory said with fake hurt, "I've never had to get used to coffee, it came naturally."

"Why am I not surprised?"

They both laughed and went into the hotel room. "So we have a choice of where to read. We can either hang out at the table or the couch."

Rory, who was looking at a door asked, "where does this go?"

"Oh, that's the bedroom."

"Oh," she said, echoing him. "Um, let's try out the couch I guess."
"Ok. Do you want anything first?"

"Do you have any coffee?"

"Yeah, but isn't it a little late?"

"Noooo," Rory said, trying to act innocent. "It's never too late for coffee, ask my mother."

"Fine I'll just take your word for it. Do you want a donut with that?"

Rory started giggling, "It sounds like we're back at the diner. You guys actually brought donuts?"

"Yeah, we came prepared for you and Lorelai." Jess walked over with 2 donuts and a coffee. "Here you go."

Rory looked up from the book that she had already started. She smiled and thanked him for the food. The two sat in comfortable silence, absorbed in the novels.

Half an hour later, they'd both stopped reading, and were eating the donuts.

"So anyways that's when I realized that it was stupid to even try. I mean come on, if they aren't going to sell oriental top ramen at Doose's all summer, then they probably won't have it again. It was a sad day for mom and me."

"Yeah I bet."

Jess leaned in towards Rory, and for the second time that night, they shared a kiss. It started out slowly – Rory met his lips cautiously, but then deepened the kiss by placing her hands on the back of his neck. Jess began playing with her hair, and they broke apart for air.

"You had donut glaze on your face, I had to get it off." Jess grinned mischievously. "Let's see if there's some more."

He brought her in again and they sat making out for several minutes. During one air break Rory glanced over at the clock.

"Oh shoot, Mom's probably wondering where I am!" She got up and grabbed her books. Stopping at the door she turned around smiling. "I really liked those donuts."

Jess watched her walk out the door, and barely heard the door slam shut. He couldn't believe that Rory finally felt the same about him, as he did about her. She's so amazing, He was surprised that she actually liked him. It took long enough though. Jess wasn't going to let anything ruin this perfect vacation with Rory – in Paradise.

Rory shut the door to her room, but still didn't see her mother. Hmm maybe they'd gone to the restaurant, though if that's where they'd gone, why hadn't Luke and Lorelai invited them? Oh well. It had given her time to "get to know" Jess more. Rory giggled as she thought about him.

She can't believe he actually liked her. Well yeah, while Dean and Rory were going out, he seemed to like to hang out, but maybe that was just to make Dean really mad. Jess had always succeeded though. Now here she was in paradise hanging and making out with him. It's perfect. She always knew that Jess was good. Rory was the one who saw past his rebel "I don't give a care what anyone says" attitude. She saw the book-loving, caring guy he is. Of course if he knew she was saying this, he'd probably get mad. It's true though. Jess was perfect for her.

Ok people, I think that covers everything. I hope you enjoyed this chapter. It was a little longer than the last, and hey, I did both on the same day! Yay me! Anyways, I hope to have another up tomorrow, but we'll see. Next chapter will have Lorelai finding Rory in the room – safe and sound, and Luke giving Jess a lecture on not messing up Rory's life. I might have a Lorelai/Rory fight, but we'll see. Besides, you know me, the chapters always prove to be short and then everything I've said is in the next one – isn't. Oh well, you'll get it eventually. Thank you for the reviews for chapter 9, they're starting to show up. Hehe I love reviews, so if you could make my day and hit the button, I'd be super happy. Until I write again, salut!

Oh, and any ideas you have, feel free to let me know!
