Disclaimer: I own Elle and Anna

A/N: I Don't think I can hate Jess, he's too cute! Hehe, sorry..

"Mom?" said Elle, pulling Rory out of her drifting thoughts.

"Yea?" she responded, turning to face her.

"What's for dinner?"

"What do you feel like eating tonight?"

"Luke's."

"Aw, Elle you know we can't drive all the way over there for dinner, you have school tomorrow and I have work. Hey how about we go to Stars Hollow on the weekend, we'll leave Friday and come back on Sunday. Sound good?"

"Yea!. But we still don't know what we're having for dinner."

"How bout' Chinese, I feel like Kung Pao chicken."

"Yea!.. Can we get spring rolls too?"

"Of course!" said Rory leading her daughter into the living room.

Rory soon called a restaurant and ordered large amounts of food like her mother did when she was younger. They ate together in the living room. Elle sat of the couch and Rory sat the big armchair by the couch. The laughed and talked about Elle's day.

"Mrs. Taylor said that I was a bright student! And she gave me a gold star, see.!" Elle said, showing Rory the sticker on her left hand.

"Wow, so you had fun today?"

"Yea, I can't wait to go tomorrow!"

Rory smiled as they continued talking about Elle's day at school. Rory soon found Elle sleeping on the couch with a plate of scattered fried rice on it. When she heard a knock at the door, it was 7:10 and Rory had no idea who it was, so she was cautious when opening the door.

She peered through the little peephole on the door and saw the last person she'd expected to see. She slowly opened the door as she looked at the ground, in all its fascination.

"Rory." the man breathed.

"What're you doing here." She responded while looking back at the sleeping little girl on the couch, he caught the sight of the little girl and wondered.

"I jus"-

"Come in. be quiet."

He came in and walked carefully behind the door, she cleaned up and carried Elle to her room. While in Rory's arms, she moved ever so softly and smiled, but did not see the man standing at the door. Rory smiled back at her and said, "Shush, go to sleep, you have school tomorrow. I want you to get as much sleep as you possibly can."

Jess heard her quietly talking to the little girl.

"But (yawn) I'm not tired (yawn)."

Rory smiled and said, "Yes, you are." so she placed her in bed and tucked her in. "G' night baby girl."

"Goodnight mommy.." and she was soon off the wonderful land of sleep.

Rory quietly walked back outside and saw Jess by the door.

"I didn't know you had a little girl." he said, pointing to Elle's room.

"I didn't know you'd leave me."

"Fair enough."

"Why are you here?"

"Because I saw you at the bookstore and you looked pretty flustered to see me."

"What did you expect, 'Oh Jess, it's so good so see you! I've waited and waited too long for your arrival, but here you are now, (her voice started changing from the high hopeful tone to a tone of remorse and a jaded voice) I don't need to worry anymore because I can see your lowly self standing before my very eyes!'."

"Ok, I knew I had that coming."

"So what do you want?.." she said a little too harsh.

"I- I. I don't know what I want. but I know that I don't want you to be mad at me, so I came back here to fix things."

"Then be the handyman you never knew you could be and fix things."

"Rory come on"-

"No you come on! I had been pinning over you for the longest time and the hardest thing I ever had to do was to hear, from my mother that you had left."

"Can we just sit and talk? Please, I- I really want to make things better."

"It's gonna take a lot longer than one conversation to 'make things better', Jess."

"I understand, but I'm willing to do anything, so please just. hear me out."

"Fine." Said Rory crossing her arms and sitting on the couch.

He took a deep breath before committing to the conversation.

"Okay. I'm sorry I left, I really am. I was and still am partially screwed up. I had to go and make things right with me dad."

"And you didn't even have the courtesy- no decentsy to tell your girlfriend, me, that he came in the first place? Hmm. I think we have a lot of work on our hands, maybe you should come back tomorrow!"

"Fine!" Jess said, standing up. "But I mean it when I say I'll come back!"

"Good!"

Good!" said Jess mimicking Rory.

"Great!" said Rory and Jess left.

She sighed and turned all the lights off as she contemplated her life thus far. She came to the conclusion that it sucked. The only thing or things that meant anything at all to her were Elle and her family, and Anna.

Here I am beside myself again

I'm torn apart by words that you have said

All in all, I know we're falling apart

Where did you run to so far away?

And here we are to sing you a song

And there you are, asleep against the window pane

Just like always

You said you like to hear the rain sometimes

And all I can do is tell you the truth

and Oh, my eyes will tell you the same

And here we are to sing you a song

And there you are asleep again

And here we are to sing you a song

And there you are, asleep again

We grasp our hands, together we feel

We are one result

We grasp our hands, together we feel

We are one result

We grasp our hands, together we feel

We are one result

We grasp our hands, together we feel

We are one result (RESULT!!)

And here we are to sing you a song

and there you are, asleep again

And here we are to sing you a song

and there you are, asleep again
