"Hey Amy," Lorelai shouted as she walked into Luke's diner.

"Hey Lorelai," Amy said from behind the counter, quickly grabbing a coffee mug from behind her. "Rory is coming home today right?"

"Yes and the four of us are still on for dinner, unless Luke has made up an excuse to not leave his flannel alone for one night." Lorelai said as Amy filled her coffee mug.

"He hasn't, yet, but he has been acting really weird today."

"Really, what about?"

"Well he got a letter from somebody, but he won't tell me who."

"Huh," Lorelai frowned, as she saw Luke walk out of the back. "Hey Lukey, who mailed you?"

"Blabber mouth." Luke mumbled as he past Amy. "Nobody important."

"Uh tell your face that."

"And your attitude, cause you're acting like he or she is pretty important." Amy chimed in as she served a couple sitting in the 'mafia' table.

"Jess is coming back," Luke said as he sat down next to Lorelai, far away from where Amy was taking a table's order.

"JESS!" Lorelai shouted, attracting everybody's attention.

"Who's Jess?" Amy asked, completely clueless.

"Your cousin," Lorelai said turning back to Luke. "You are letting him come back!"

"No, I stick by that he cant live here unless he graduates. That letter was from him saying that he is on his way here. I guess he figured that if he called me I would tell him not too."

"When is he coming?" Lorelai said, worrying about how Rory would react if she saw him again.

"I don't know." Luke said, showing the same hurt that he had after Jess had left for California.

It was about seven o'clock when Rory and Lorelai walked into the diner to grab a cup of coffee before going to diner. The adults had no clue that the girls had their excuses ready to leave them for a diner on their own.

"Hey, uh why aren't you dressed up?" Lorelai said shocked as she watched Amy behind the counter in her jeans and T-shirts.

"Oh I can't make it tonight, I have a major test tomorrow and due to today's lunch crowd I wasn't able to study." Amy said trying to not look completely guilty.

"Tomorrow's Saturday."

"Yeah, but the professor was absent one day and he moved the test for tomorrow." Amy lied, something she hated doing to Lorelai but it was for her own good.

Lorelai's attention was taken from Amy as Rory's cell phone rang. Just as Rory took the faked phone call from her roommate saying that she wanted to visit Stars Hollow for the weekend, allowing Rory to skip the dinner to wait for her friend, the door jingled stealing all of the women's attention.

"JESS!" Amy screamed as she ran up to the guy standing in the doorway.

"Amy Halikan? What are you doing here?" Jess Mariano said as he stared at the girl who had grabbed him into a hug.

"Oh I'm here with my dad, err my biological dad, it's a long story." Amy said quickly as she turned to Lorelai and Rory who were staring at the to shocked.

"How do you two know each other?" Lorelai said as she grabbed the hand of her daughter, automatically feeling the hatred of the man in front of her. He had hurt Rory again, this time breaking her heart, and now he is here daring to show his face.

"Oh about three summers ago, I went to visit some cousins in New York and Jess was one of my cousin's friends. We dated a little, but at the end of the summer we decided to just be friends." Amy quickly explained as she watched Luke come into the diner, dressed to go out.

"Jess." Luke said simply as he saw his daughter by his nephew.

"Wait, how do you know Jess?" Amy asked, very confused.

"Hey, Uncle Luke." Jess said, staring at his uncle with a different glare than any of the others had seen him wear. It was one of sadness, disappointment, and one that begged for forgiveness.

"Wait! Uncle. you're. oh my goodness!" Amy said, running out of the diner.

"I got her." Lorelai said, kicking off her heels to run after the girl.

"WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER!" Luke growled at Jess, immediately feeling concern for his daughter.

"Huh, how do you know her?" Jess said, completely confused.

"She is my daughter." Luke growled as he walked past Jess to the diner's door.

"You dated your cousin." Rory giggled, enjoying watching Jess squirm.
