A/N: Sorry it took a while, but here's chapter 2! Hopefully chapter 3 will come quicker, but probably not. In this chapter Jess makes an appearance. This probably won't be the only chapter with him in it. I hate Jess, but this is the story of "The Storm that Showed No Mercy." Please R/R

"Why am I always pulled back here?" he wondered as he reached for the door handle. Walking into his uncle's diner. Jess was not surprised that Luke looked shocked. It was starting to rain, and the thunderous sound of the door had ripped his attention from the window.
"What are you doing here?"
"Well, hello to you too, Luke," Jess retorted sarcastically.
A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky at the same time as a brief sigh came from Luke. The nearly instant thunder shook the room.
"You can't run here every time you need a place to stay," Luke told his troublesome nephew.
"So I heard you and Nicole finally got divorced," Jess said, ignoring Luke's statement.
Luke ignored him and walked up to his apartment. Attempting to follow, Jess received a door in his face. Storming away from the door, he slumped into a nearby stool at the counter. While he'd been in the diner, the weather had gone from a light rain shower to full-fledged pouring.
Upstairs, Luke was picking up the phone; he didn't know whom he was calling at first, but his fingers quickly decided for him. With the sound of the first ring, Luke was suddenly standing in the dark. "Great," he said. "This is just-"
"Hello?" Lorelai cut him off.
"Oh. Hi. You're not going to believe this, but Jess is back again."
"What?! Is he immortal or something? I'm surprised no one in this town has killed him yet."
"I don't know what he's doing. He got his car when he came two years ago, and he knows that Rory is completely over him-unless he didn't get the message when Rory called and told him."
"Okay. I have to call Rory."
"Don't. He'll be gone by the time she's here next weekend."
"Well, you never know. I just don't want her to get hurt."
"I don't want her to get hurt either. Okay. Don't trip on anything in the dark."
"I'll try not to-OW! Stupid remote control! Bye Luke."
"Bye Lorelai," Luke said before hanging up the phone. Leaning against the wall, he sighed again for the second time in ten minutes.
