Summary: Rory comes back from Washington to some different surprises.

"Luke!" Lorelai smiled.

"Lorelai." Luke sighs as Lorelai sits in front of him.

"I know, I know, try and hold the excitement until l leave." Lorelai joked.

Luke looks around her to see she's alone. "Where's Rory?"

"She's still sleeping and I didn't want to wake her." Lorelai said.

"Oh, right, how was the dinner?" Luke asked,

"Well, I think my father gained the son he never had." Lorelai smiled.

"Your father liked Jess?" Luke was shocked.

"Yeah, but my mother spent the whole night looking for ways to prove that Jess is some sort of a rebel." Lorelai smiled wider, remembering her mother's questions.

"Jess is some sort of a rebel." Luke corrected her.

"Huh. I guess he is." They smiled at each other, not wanting to ruin the moment.

"Mom!" Rory yelled as she walked in and this broke the trance Luke and Lorelai were in.

"Ro, Rory? What's wrong?" Lorelai turned around.

"Why did you leave me there without waking me up first?" Rory asked.

"I'm sorry, why does it matter?" Lorelai asked.

"Now my day is all messed up, I slept and extra hour. I was supposed to get up and shower, then meet Jess at 10, do you know what time it is?" Rory panicked.

Lorelai looked at the clock on the wall. "11." She said quietly.

"Right. I have to go talk to him, he probably thought I forgot." Rory sighed.

"Jess isn't Dean." Lorelai pointed out.

"What do you mean?" Rory asked, confused.

"Well, we both know that is you were late, Dean would look into it. I don't think Jess will."

"I know, but I'm like an hour late." Rory said.

"Why are you freaking out?" Lorelai asked, concerned.

"I don't know. I think this whole grandma thing has gotten to me." Rory sighed and put her hair behind her ears.

"Okay, take some coffee and go home and rest." Lorelai suggested, rubbing Rory's arm.

"No, I'll be fine." Rory smiled a little. "I'm going upstairs."

"Okay, I'll see you later."

"Bye." Rory said and walked up the stairs. When she reached the door, she slowly opened it.

"Jess?"

"Hey, you're late." Jess said. He was sitting on the couch with a book. He closed it and walked over to Rory.

"I know, my mom woke me up late." Rory said and kissed him.

"So, when do I get my fun?" Jess smiled.

"I dunno." Rory said seductively. "When is Luke coming up?"

"I can always lock the door." Jess put his arms around her.

"Yes, but what if we are naked, lying in bed, and he comes up and bangs on the door. I don't think my fast motives are working this morning." Rory laughed.

"Then we'll hide in the closet." Jess answered.

"But then who will open the door?" Rory questioned.

"The closet monster." Jess smiled.

"As long as we have a plan." Rory smiled and kissed him. Still kissing, Jess guided them towards the door to lock it, and then leads them to the bed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I'm not going. I'm not going. I'm not going!" Rory said to Jess as she walked into the diner on that Wednesday night.

"Then don't go." Jess answered, wiping the tables since it was almost closing time.

"I'm not." Rory laughed and sat at the counter. Jess went behind the counter and poured her a cup of coffee and gave it to Rory. She sipped it and put it down.

"So where exactly are you not going?" Jess asked.

"Friday night dinner." Rory took another sip of coffee.

"Ah." Jess said.

"Yeah. My grandma hasn't called either of us at all. But she is probably still expecting us. But I'm not going." Rory continued.

"It's been noted." Jess laughed.

"I don't know. I just came here to complain to someone and you were first on my list." Rory smiled.

"Thanks." Jess said.

"I don't feel good." Rory yawned.

"You don't look good. You look pale." Jess observed.

"I feel like I'm going to faint." Rory scratched her head.

"Do you want me to walk you home?" Jess offered.

"Please." Rory said, getting up and Jess walked around the counter. He opens the door for her and they walk out. Jess puts his around her shoulder and Rory puts her arm around Jess's waist.

"You gonna throw up?" Jess asked.

"I don't think so. I have a head ache." Rory whined.

"Ah, is your mom home?"

"She should be." Rory said.

"Okay. Well, when you get home, you should go to sleep." Jess ordered.

"Thanks dad." Rory laughed.

Jess laughed too. "Just trying to be caring."

"I know, that's very nice of you." Rory smiled.

They finally reach the house and Rory just walks in, still hanging on to Jess.

Lorelai is sitting on the couch with Buster in her lap. She turned to see Rory holding on to Jess and she just laughed. "Rory? Why are you holding onto Jess like you're going to faint?"

"Because I feel like I am." Rory said.

"What?" Lorelai said, getting up and hugging Rory.

"I don't know, I just feel sick." Rory whined.

"Like stomachy kind of sick or just head achy kind of sick?" Lorelai asked.

"Um, the second one." Rory said softly.

"Okay, well, you go to bed and get some rest, maybe you'll feel better in the morning?" Lorelai said.

"Okay. Jess, come and tuck me in?" Rory asked with a smile.

"Sure." Jess nodded.

Rory went into her room and Jess followed. She had already slept with Jess twice, so she didn't feel too weird undressing in front of him. So she pulled her pants down and put on her pajama pants. She unclipped her bra and pulled it off through her shirt. Watching Rory undress made Jess feel a bit aroused.

Rory got into bed and Jess stood over her.

"Well, I guess I better let you get some sleep." Jess said.

"Okay." Rory smiled slightly.

Jess leaned down and kissed Rory. Rory put her arms around Jess and pulled him down on the bed. The kisses got heated and Jess was already aroused so he pulled away and got off the bed.

"We shouldn't do this now. You should just go to sleep." Jess breathed out.

"Okay." Rory smiled. "Bye."

"Bye." Jess smiled back and walked out to the living room.

"She'll be fine." Jess told Lorelai.

"Okay, thanks Jess." Lorelai smiled and Jess just nodded.

The next morning, Lorelai walked into Rory's room and Rory was sound asleep. She sat down on her bed and moved the hair away from her face. "Rory?" She said softly.

Rory stirred and slowly opened her eyes.

"How do you feel?"

"Like crap." Rory started getting out of bed.

"You look just like it. Hey, Hey, Hey, where are you going?" Lorelai said, lightly pushing her back down in bed.

"To school." Rory said, as if it wasn't obvious.

"Uh-uh, no Missy, you are staying home today." Lorelai said, pushing the blankets on Rory.

"No, it's the first day of April, new quarter!" Rory whined.

"Yes Rory, there is 3 months of school left, plenty of time to catch up." Lorelai felt her head. "You have a fever."

"Fine! But you have to pick up my school work." Rory said.

"Okay, then I'll get your work for tomorrow too." Lorelai smiled.

"Why?"

"Don't you ever just feel like staying home?" Lorelai smiled in a devious way.

"Yeah, but." Rory whined again.

"Rory, don't argue with mommy." Lorelai said and walked out of the room.

Rory sighed and went back to sleep.

She woke up about 4 hours later and got out of bed. She walked into the kitchen and there was a note on the table.

Rory,

Went to work. If you get hungry, go to Luke's.

Love, Mommy.

Rory looked at the clock and saw it was 11:30. She remembered that Jess had lunch at 12 and he would usually go to the benches and read, since he had no intentions of socializing.

So she got dressed and walked to Stars Hollow High. She sat on the bench just outside of the school. About 5 minutes later, she heard the bell ring and a bunch of people walking out to go and get lunch. She saw Jess walking out, but his fixated on the book he was holding.

He put the book down to walk over to the bench and that's when he noticed Rory. She was sitting there smiling and then she got up and walked over to him and hugged him.

"What are you doing here?" Jess asked and kissed her.

Rory kissed him back. "My mom made me stay home. So I figured I'd come and hang out with you." She smiled.

"Cool. Hey, I can skip the rest of school and just hang out." Jess suggested.

"No, no, an education is important." Rory refused.

"Rory.."

"How about tomorrow?" Rory smiled.

"Huh?"

"My mom is making me stay home tomorrow too and I figured maybe you would rather do it then." Rory said.

"Sure." Jess said.

"Okay, but for now, lets just sit down and read." Rory suggested.

"Good idea."

So Rory and Jess cuddled on the bench and Jess read to her. Rory was looking around and saw Dean hugging another girl in front of the school. She felt happy that he had finally moved on.

Soon enough, the bell rang.

"I gotta go." Jess whined.

"Yes, you do." Rory smiled and kissed him.

"Rory...." Jess whined louder.

"Go!" Rory pointed to the school.

Jess sighed and kissed her again. "I'll come and see you after school."

"Good idea." Rory smiled and began to walk away.

"Manipulator!" Jess yelled after her.

Rory turned around and opened her mouth in shock and smiled. Jess smiled back and walked back into school.
