Later that day, Rory found herself at Weston's bakery sitting at a table by the window, heavily engrossed in her book. Every now and then, she'd take a sip of her coffee and pick a piece of muffin off.
"Would you like a refill?"
"Oh hey Kirk," Rory said, looking up from her book, "I didn't see you there........"
"Now I'm invisible?!" Kirk said.
"No Kirk, what I meant wa"-
"No, no, I get it!" he said as he stomped off.
(Sigh)..... 'I can never win with that guy..........'
Just then, Lorelai bounced in, with a huge grin on her face. She plopped down in the seat across from Rory.
"Rory........ Daughter of mine....... Apple of my eye......... hello," Lorelai said simply.
"The answer is no......" said Rory not looking up from her book.
"No? No what? You didn't even know what I was gonna ask you!"
"True, but the answer is still no........." Rory said plainly.
"So, imaginary friend who can easily replace my daughter........"
"Fine!"
"N-ya-ha!" Lorelai laughed. "Ahem, ahem..... Do you know what today is?"
"Nope."
"Uh...... Really?"
"Not a clue......."
"Are ya sure?"
"Positive."
"That was a weak 'positive'..... Let's put a little umph in it, shall we?"
"Mom, what's this about?"
"Fine, crush my fun....." Lorelai said, sulking. "Today is Valentines Day!" she said triumphantly.
"Oh really? Hadn't crossed my mind......."
"Not even a little bit?"
"Nope."
"Not even a tinsey bit?"
"Nu- uh......."
"Not even a"-
"Not even tinsey winsey bit!" Rory said, finishing the sentence for her.
"Humph!" Lorelai grunted. "So you're gonna just gonna sit here all day and read?"
"Actually, I plan to go home soon, preferably before dark, then sleep........"
"Hey! There's no need far sarcasm...... I'm simply asking valid questions here!......."
"(Sigh) Sorry I just......... don't feel very much in a Valentiney-kind of way today........."
"Wanna share?"
"Not really........ I just feel like moping."
"We can mope together," Lorelai offered.
"Maybe later? I just think I need to be alone right now........'
"Well, this isn't all over a certain dark haired, broody hooligan from years ago, is it?" Lorelai asked.
"I dunno, I just...... I dunno........"
Lorelai nodded, leaving it alone. She knew it was because of Jess; it was obvious.
"Well, come down to Luke's later, alright?"
"Sure...."
"Cya......" said Lorelai; Rory just waved.
She soon went back to reading; or at least she tried to. Now all she could think about was him and how he was doing on this day.
She sighed as she put her book down, forgetting whatever page she was on and gazing out the window. It was a beautiful day; for being what it was. Perfect for everyone........ But her.
Satisfaction was beyond the cause of her mopiness. She needed something- someone, him, to get her through this. Rory wished that he were here, even if they weren't together any more; just being in his presence was better than being alone on this engaging day.
She sighed again as she stood from her place at the table and walked outside. She walked to the bridge, just to kind of remember him.
"Close your eyes," he said.
"Why, what're you gonna do to me?" Rory asked.
"Just do it, will ya!"
She hesitantly closed her eyes as he led her away. She knew where she was going by the patter of her feet against the ground; he led her to the bridge. He stopped her and said, "Open........"
She smiled and said, "What're you doing?"
"Patience is a virtue........" he said, trying to calm her down.
"Not one of mine!" she said, getting all excited.
"Well...... here.... I- it's not much but I knew you really, really wanted this........"
He offered her a small package, which she accepted with a huge grin on her face. Just seeing her smile, made his day. Her smile made his heart do countless leaps.
She tore off the brown paper wrapping and removed it from the object. She smiled even bigger, if that was at all possible and hugged him tightly.
"I knew I loved for a reason! Thank you so much, this means a lot to me!" she said as she wrapped her arms around his neck. She pried herself away from him to study the gift. It was a book, one of which she had read many times and even owned already, but it wasn't a first edition. Her fingers grazed the title, it read: Franny and Zooey.
She hugged him again, this time even tighter than before, he choked out, "Rory!..... Need..... Air.................. NOW!"
She smiled as she loosened her grip on him. She held his shoulders and he leaned in ever so swiftly to sweep in for a kiss. His lips grazed over hers and she smiled through the kiss, making it harder for him to kiss her.
He pulled away and said, "Happy Valentines Day........"
"Aw, I got my own little romantic........"
He rolled his eyes and she said, "Happy Valentines Day......."
Opening her eyes from an almost forgotten memory, she brushed herself off as she stood to walk home. But there, stood him in all his glory; he kept his hands in his pockets as he looked so solemnly, so soberly at her. His eyes swept her off her feet and carried her away as her body stood still like she was part of the wooden platform.
'Well, happy Valentine's Day,' she thought to herself as she walked towards him.
