Rory looked up at Jess with tears in her yes. "No...I don't." She whispered, as she pulled away and turned her back to him. It was hard for her to look at him and say this. "Jess...ever since you showed up here part of me has wanted to be with you and I don't know when, but at some point that part just took over the rest of me." She turned once again, this time to face him. He stood completely still, he was stunned to be hearing the words he had been waiting to here. "I just can't do it like this." Jess' heart broke. "Rory..." "I never thought I would do something like that. I never thought that I could be the kind of person who would cheat on a test...let alone a boyfriend." She cried. "I'm a horrible person and...I don't deserve to be happy." She told him. "I'm sorry." With that, she began to walk away. Jess watched as her figure began to shrink. He ran his hand through he hair as he turned to walk back towards the truck, but suddenly it hit him. If he wanted Rory he would have to fight for her. Jess wasn't one to lay his feelings out ther for everyone to see, but to him Rory was worth it. He couldn't lose her over this, not after he finally knew that she liked him back. "Rory!" He yelled, as he ran after her. "Rory stop." He pleaded as she quickened her pace and entered the town green, where Kirk and Taylor had just began the annual end of summer picnic. The town members stared as Rory began to ran and Jess sped up. "Will you just stop?" He yelled with frustration. "Leave me alone." was all she could manage as Jess grabbed her arm and spun her around to face him. "Just tell me that you don't like me and I'll leave you alone Rory." He told her, staring into her eyes. A tear fell from her eyes as she shook her head, unable to say it. She did like Jess and she couldn't change that. Jess looked deeply into her eyes waiting for her answer, but he didn't get one. "That's what I thought." he whispered in a husky voice before his lips crashed into hers. Inside the diner, Luke and Lorelai sat with their mouths hanging open as Rory and Jess basically declared their attraction to the whole town. "Well...I'd say our plan worked." Lorelai commented with satisfaction. "I'd say so." Luke agreed, as they watched the new couple. "The town is gonna have a hell of a field day with this one." Lorelai laughed as her eyes brighten. "Hey I have an idea." She smirked, turning to face Luke. "Some tells me I dont' wanna know." "What do you say you and I go out there and just start makin out?" She joked. "What?" "Yeah. That's give 'em something to talk about Lukey." She growled and gave him a wink. "You're crazy." He scoffed, as he turned and walked in the back of the diner. "Crazy for you lover lips." She told him in a sweet, southern voice. Let out a laugh she turned with he coffee to watch the Soap opera play out. Outside, Jess pulled back to see what Rory's reaction would be. He smirked as she looked around the crowd of people timidly. "Well, if that wasn't the year's biggest gossip item I dont' know what is." she told him with a slight laugh. "Rory...If you..." "Jess." She stammered. "Just stop talking ok? Because what I'm about to do is completely not me...then again I haven't really been acting like myself lately. And now I'm rambling so you can make it much easier if you just don't say anything." She explained, as Jess nodded with a smirk. Rory looked into his eyes as she wrapped her arms around his neck and slowly moved her lips towards his, allowing them to met in a perfect kiss. He knew it was right. She knew it was right. That was all that mattered.

The End
