Chapter 2: She's Somethin'
"What are you doing here?" Rory asked, still a little shocked.
"What are YOU doing here?" Jess asked.
"I asked you first!" she shouted back.
"Ooo, what are we, in the second grade?"
"Actually no, I bumped up to third. Now what are you doing here?"
"Rory, Rory. I see we've caught up in our lesson on sarcasm....."
"Yeah, passed with honors," she responded.
"Aren't we testy," Jess said holding his hands up in defense.
Rory snorted and said, "You've caught me on one of my better days."
"I'd hate to see you on your worst....." Jess muttered.
"Bet you would! Now why are you here?"
"Why do you care?"
"Why do you always counter me with a question?"
"Answer my question," Jess said.
"Answer mine first!"
Jess sighed and said, "My car broke down again."
Rory sneered and turned her head.
"Now answer my question," Jess said.
"Why should I, I owe you nothing!" Rory spat out harshly.
Jess recoiled slightly and stood. He said, "You're right....."
He turned to walk away, but Rory bitterly said, "Because I care..... More than you'll ever know....."
He didn't turn to face her; he already knew how pained she looked. The first time was engraved in his memory.
And that was it; he just walked away, like he always did.
Rory threw the stick; she was holding the entire time, in the water and stood. She ran up to Jess and followed his step. There was a quiet serenity between the two, but when she spoke, she shattered it.
"Where are you staying?"
"At the gazebo," he responded.
She cringed and said, "Bad back?"
"Like you wouldn't believe," he replied.
She half smiled.
"You know you don't have to stay there," she said.
"Oh yea, why don't I just crawl sheepishly back to Luke and ask him for a place stay."
"You could, you know."
"No Rory, I can't. And you know that."
"So you'd rather sleep in the icy cold on a bench that'll give you cricks left and right?!"
"Beats being lectured by Luke," Jess said shrugging it off.
"You are unbelievable," she said as she walked ahead of him.
"Bout' time you noticed! Aren't you a little late?" He said catching up to her.
Rory stopped and so did he.
"Go crawl in a whole and die!" she shouted and turned away.
"If only I could!" he shouted back, turning the opposite way.
Both stormed off in different directions.
Rory stomped off to Luke's.
Jess stomped off to Gypsy's.
Rory
Who the hell does he think he is?!
Thinking he can just- agh!
Jess
Who the hell does she think she is?!
Thinking she can just tell me to do this n' that! - Ha, fat chance!
Why do I let her get me like this?!
Oh yeah, that's right.
You love her, you jackass!

Rory trudged into the diner, slamming the door shut causing everyone in the diner to stare at her with big eyes.
"What?" she asked, shamefacedly.
'This town is SO damn nosey!' she thought to herself.
Luke slowly approached Rory and said, "Coffee?"
She only looked up at him and he said, "Coming right up."
She nodded and placed her head in her arms.
Luke brought her coffee and said, "What's wrong?"
She looked up at him again.
Sighing, she said, "Jess....."
"I thought he left- and what did he do? I swear if I don't get to wring his neck myself, I'll hire someone......" Luke muttered.
"Luke, it's okay, really."
"Say the word and Jess'll be kaput."
She tried to smile and said, "Thanks Luke."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Damnit Gypsy, if you worked a little harder I think you could get this done! Then I can get out of this spinning vortex of doom!" Jess shouted at Gypsy, whom was under the car- not making clinking sounds with her tools.
"Get out of here," she shouted.
"Just get it done faster!"
"Believe me, no one wants you gone more than I do."
"Oh I can name some one......" Jess murmured, as he shoved his hands into his pockets.
"What did you do to 'er?"
"I didn't do anything!" he shouted.
"Men are stupid! They all act the same...... they think that if they do something dumb it gets fixed ina jiffy...... Stupid......."
"You are seriously whacked!" he said, taking a step back.
"If you leave now, I might get this hunk o junk fixed earlier than I planned!"
"Good!"
"Now get outta here!"
Jess snickered and walked off.
"Men......" Gypsy cursed.
Jess realized he had nowhere to go so he just walked around.
He wasn't sure if anyone aside from Rory knew he was here.
But he didn't care anymore.
All he wanted was to get out of this hell- hole.
Or did he....?
Who knew?
Jess was like a jigsaw puzzle- there's too many damn pieces, so you give up before you even try.
At least that was the way Jess thought people saw him.
Rory saw him in another light.
It was beautiful.
She saw everything, or at least everything he'd share with her.
Which wasn't a lot, but more than a little.
She's somethin.
She's like a never-ending maze.
Keep you guessing and she makes you do things you'd never in a million years think you'd do.
She is something.
