My Love Is All I Have
Usual Disclaimers Apply
Rory was lying on her bed; she was reading one of her novels. Well if anyone was to enter her room that's what she would say she was doing. She had lost herself in her thoughts; she kept seeing Jess's face when he saw her with Dean, after she almost kissed him. He was so hurt and she knew it. She shouldn't have let Dean walk her home. She was glad it was July; she didn't have to worry about any schoolwork while she had all this personal stuff going on.
Then she started wondering if her mom noticed how Dean was to her, or if she just didn't want to notice, or if she noticed at all. Right at that time there was a knock at the door, it wasn't a normal knock, and it was done like some secret club knock or something which caused all of Rory's thoughts to fall to the back of her mind.
"You can come in." She hollered to her mom through the door.
Lorelai slowly opened the door and peeked her head in. She then proceeded to look around the room the slowly sneak into Rory's room and quietly shut the bedroom door behind her. Lorelai then ran and jumped onto Rory's bed, landing right beside Rory.
"You didn't do the second half of the code, what if I was an intruder trying to kidnap you?" Lorelai said seriously.
"What code mom?" Rory looked from her book up to her mom.
Lorelai leaned to Rory's ear and whispered. "The one we made up, you know. It starts off with the 'Scooby Doo' tune, then 'Dawson's Creek'. Then the second half is the Oopa loopa doopidy doo song from 'Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory'."
Rory looked back at her book. "Mom why and when did we make this knock code?"
"Well, why because if someone broke into the house and I was upstairs and you in your room, I could sneak down, do the knock and get in then we could sneak out through your bedroom window." Lorelai stated smiling. "And when, well last month."
Rory looked up at her mother. "And last month when 'we' made up this code why I wasn't aware of it?" Rory said seriously. "And second, why would someone want to break into our house?"
Lorelai just looked at her daughter. "Well..to steal.all the leftover Chinese in the fridge."
"Mom that Chinese has been in the fridge for two weeks, I don't think anyone would be stealing it." Rory looked back at her book and started reading. Figuring that her point had been made, and that there was no knock code.
"What's wrong with the Chinese?" Lorelai asked curiously.
Rory looked back at her mom; she let out a laugh as she spoke. "That Chinese has been in the fridge for 'two' weeks mom. It's not any good anymore, another words you could get sick." Rory returned to her book.
Lorelai looked at the bedroom door, then grabbed Rory's arm and pulled her off of the bed. "We need to go to Luke's come on." Lorelai pulled Rory out of her bedroom and to the hallway.
"Mom why do we have to go to Luke's?"
"I need some coffee. Hopefully it will save me." Lorelai said the last sentence under her breath. Not realizing that Rory had heard her.
"Save you from what?"
"I'll explain on the way come on." Lorelai grabbed her keys off of the dresser in the hall and then pulled Rory out the front door.
*~*~*
Rory and Lorelai entered the full diner, they walked up to the counter and Lorelai hollered at Luke.
Luke walked out from the kitchen to the counter. "What is she yelling about?"
"Luke I need coffee, please give me coffee I need it bad!" Lorelai begged.
Luke looked at Rory. "What's her problem?"
"Well she decided she was hungry and wanted to see what two week old Chinese tasted like." Rory answered.
"What? Why do ya'll even have two week old Chinese in your house?"
"Mom doesn't like to throw things out."
"Um... Hello I'm the one that ate the food, can I please have some coffee." Lorelai said pointing to herself. Luke shook his head and followed Lorelai's instruction's. He set two cups of coffee in front of the two girls. Lorelai eagerly picked up her mug and sipped the coffee. She set it back on the counter, smiling and a content look on her face Lorelai looked at Luke.
"My coffee angel is still here. I never doubted you coffee angel."
Luke just rolled his eyes and walked off to take more orders. As Luke walked up to a table Jess came down the stairs. As he stepped into the diner he saw Rory and wanted to turn around but fought the urge. He walked to his spot at the end of the counter and pulled out his book.
Rory saw Jess enter the diner, and their eyes had locked when he looked up at her. When he looked at her Rory felt different, she felt a little nervous. She blamed it on what happened at the bridge the day before and wondered if it was the same for him. But then she realized that she really did regret not going through with the kiss, but was it just curiosity. She took her eyes off of his leaning figure and looked at her mom.
"Mom."
"Hmmm?" Lorelai turned and looked at her daughter.
"How would you say or describe Dean and my relationship?"
"Uh...I don't know." Lorelai looked at Rory confused.
"Ok, if you're in love with someone how do you think you're supposed to feel about them?"
"I think you should want to be with them all the time, and think about them when your eyes are open and closed. And when you are with them, you should feel like the safest and luckiest person on the planet. That person should be the only person that can make you happy when you are sad, and that person should know you inside and out. And you and that person should be able to tell what type of mood, and what's wrong with each other just by looking at one another." Lorelai said with a large smile on her face. Then concern struck accompanied by a frown. "Why?"
"No reason, just wanted to know your opinion on it." Rory looked back at her coffee, realizing that practically everything her mother said was how she felt with Jess and nothing like Dean.
"Rory, there's got to be a reason. Now what is it?"
Rory took in a breath then looked up at her mom. "I don't love him."
