Jess- Rory, do you need new bikini's?
Rory- as a matter of fact, yes I do
Dave- ok so let's get going
The teens get in to Dave's car, and they go to the mall, at the mall they check out the music stores, book stores, then finally they hit the clothing stores, they try on some clothes, and the girls try on there bikini's, and Dave and Jess tell the girls, they need to go check out a store, so Dave and Jess are walking, till Jess asks Dave something.
Jess- hey Dave, could you come to this store with me?

Dave (looks and his eyes go wide) why are you going in to a jewellery store?
Jess- because I need to buy something in there
Dave- are you finally going to do, what you said you were going to do 2 years ago
Jess- huh?
Dave- do not give me huh?
Jess- fine yes
Dave- did you ever choose the perfect ring?
Jess- well kind of but not really, I found one that was close to my perfect ring
Dave- well man, come and show me it
Jess and Dave walk in the salesperson, comes up to them
Sales Man- Hi can I help you today?
Jess- well I am looking for an engagement ring for my girlfriend of 6 years
Sales man- 6 years, really I have never come across a couple that have been together for so long, and look so young? May I ask how old are you?
Jess- I'll be 19 on the 14th of this month
Sales man- wow, well congratulations on your love, and I wish you the very best, so I am going to choose the very best of rings for you today.
Jess- thank-you
Sales man- do you have anything in mind?
Jess- Thick Silver Band, with a Princess Diamond
Sales Man- ok, very good I have three choices
The sales man shows Jess the three choices, and Jess choose the one with the big diamond on it, they purchased it and Jess hid it from Rory, they walked in to Abercrombie & Fitch, and he saw Rory at the cash with Lane purchasing a lot of clothing for the whole summer. They all head to the diner for food.
