Disclaimer: Sadly, I do not own Gilmore Girls. But, if the WB is interested
in selling Jess I'd be more than happy to buy him! ;)
A/N: Hallo peeps! I just finished chapter 14 today, but by the time you read this it might be a few days from now! lol I just wanted to say that I'm really starting to love this story, and I feel like my writing style is slowly becoming my own. I appreciate everyone who has reviewed, but I really wish more people would. Okay, now this is going to be a fun chapter to write! Hope you like it!
Chapter 15: Will you marr...inate the chicken?
Jess was in his room buttoning the last button on his dark blue dress shirt. He decided to go all out for this occasion. He was in his nicest shirt with black dress slacks and brand new black shoes. In fact, he had just gone shopping to buy all of his new clothes. He put on his black jacket and stared at the reflection in the mirror. Luke stormed into the apartment to see what was taking Jess so long, and when he saw Jess he couldn't help but laugh.
"Y...you're," he started, but couldn't finish as laughter consumed him.
"Shut up!" Jess replied sorely.
"Sorry Jess," he said composing himself, "what's with the..."
"It's for Rory, okay" the boy said.
A smile betrayed his lips at the mention of her name. He turned back to the mirror and messed with his hair a little. He checked is pocket to make sure the ring was there, and then he grabbed the roses he had purchased and headed out the door. Luke watched him finish getting ready, and he noticed Jess could barely hold the roses his hands were shaking so bad.
"Hey," Luke called, "good luck."
Jess smirked, "I don't need luck, I'm bringing coffee!"
Luke laughed again as Jess leaned down to where he had placed a cup full of coffee. Even though it was decaf, he knew she would appreciate it. Jess walked downstairs into the packed diner, and prepared to face his destiny. He picked up the groceries he had bought earlier, and headed out the door.
Rory had taken a short nap after Jess had dropped her off earlier. She took a shower and when she got out, she saw a dress had been pulled out of her closet and a note was placed on top of it. It read: Hey gorgeous,
I have a special night planned for us, so where this dress to feel your best. You know I wouldn't mind if you didn't wear anything "wink, wink," but I do think you might feel better in some clothes.
I love you for always,
Jess
Rory smiled as she read his note. Jess always had that effect on her, though. She loved him so much that it didn't matter how mad at him she was, he could always make her smile. Rory quickly got dressed and put some makeup on. Just as she put the finishing touches on her lipstick, the doorbell rang. She answered the door, and Jess was standing on her porch. Roses were in his right hand, and a sack of groceries were in his left. Sitting on top of the food was a to-go cup, which she suspected was coffee of some sort. Then, she focused on his clothes. He looked good!
"Hey," Jess said, "you look amazing!"
"You look uh... wow!" Rory stuttered.
Jess grinned, he had hoped she would react like this. He smoothly entered the house and walked into the kitchen. as soon as he set the groceries down, he handed her the flowers and the coffee.
"Thanks," she told him as she accepted his gifts.
As soon as she put the roses in a vase, Jess enveloped her with his arms. He attacked her mouth with kisses, and she was helpless to do anything but return them. His tongue instinctively found her mouth and she sucked on it. They discovered each other's mouths like it was their first kiss. After several minutes, they broke apart.
Jess, knew he should ask her then. He just stood their for a moment before looking into her huge eyes that seemed to stare into his soul. He was terrified that she'd say no. Lorelai had said no when Rory's dad asked her, and he was afraid she would mimic her mother. Rory could tell Jess was thinking about something the way he stared intently at her. She decided not to say anything until he chose to move.
"Rory," he said in a barely audible voice, "Will you marr...inate the chicken?"
"Uh, I don't exactly know how, but I can try," Rory replied uncertainly.
For a second, she thought he was going to ask her to marry him! Rory knew that was absurd, but she had a glimmer of hope. She wanted to marry Jess, she loved him with all her heart and soul. And at that moment, growing inside of her, was their baby. Rory wanted her child to have a family because she never got one. Her dad just popped in here and there, but now he had his own family. Rory knew her dad loved her, but it wasn't the same as him being there. She didn't want the baby to miss out because he or she didn't have a father. Rory sighed out loud, even though she didn't mean to.
"What?" Jess inquired, obviously concerned.
"Oh, it's nothing," Rory said with a fake smile on her face..
Jess knew something was wrong. When Rory smiled, it reached her eyes. This smile was forced, and it didn't go further than her lips. He was such a wimp. He had everything planned, but he couldn't bring himself to face getting rejected by Rory. He that she wasn't marinating the chicken right.
"No, sweetie you do it like this..." Jess told her.
He moved behind her and slid his hands around her waist to help her with their meal. They finished, and then they let the chicken sit for an hour. Jess took Rory's hand and led her over to the couch. He knew it was now or never. Jess guided Rory to sit down on the sofa and he began to talk, ramble actually.
"Rory, I love you. We're going to have a baby, and I want to be here. I don't want to leave, and I don't want to ever leave..." he prattled.
Rory listened with intensity to every word he was saying. She couldn't believe it! He was going to ask her. Her child would have a family, a real family. They would get married and share their lives together. She felt happier than she ever had. Rory Mariano kept singing in her head. She knew he was nervous, but he was doing a wonderful job, so far.
"So, um... Rory," he said as he took a deep breath, "Will you marry me?"
A smile sweeter than any Jess had ever seen graced her face, "Yes, I love you."
Relief washed over him like a waterfall. He helped her up, and then he twirled her around the room. They kissed and held each other for what seemed like only a few minutes, but before they knew it the timer went off. They sauntered into the kitchen hand in hand. They finished cooking and sat down to eat their dinner. The whole evening was perfect, and Rory didn't think it could possibly go better. After they were finished, Jess took Rory's hand in his own.
"I got you something," he told her in his deep husky voice.
"What?" she asked, full of curiosity.
Jess pulled the diamond ring out of his pocket and slid it onto her slender finger. Rory's eyes grew huge at the sight of her ring. Jess held her hand back to admire the ring on her small hand. He smiled and looked at the disbelief on her face. He then spun her into his arms and dipped her. She started laughing, but he silenced her with a kiss that was more wonderful than any kiss either of them had ever experienced. Rory pulled away, and started walking to her room. Jess was perplexed until she turned around and gave him a seductive smile. Then, he raised one eyebrow and followed her into her bedroom for a night of passionate lovemaking.
----------------------------------
Lorelai had gone to the diner after working at the Dragonfly. There had been some construction problems and she knew she couldn't go home tonight because Jess had already talked to her. She couldn't believe that her daughter was getting married before she was! She stalked into the diner and plopped herself down at a stool.
"Hard day?" Luke asked compassionately.
"Yeah, it's just with the Dragonfly... and all the stuff with Rory," Lorelai said with a sigh.
"At least the whole town knows," she continued.
"Yeah," Luke agreed.
No one was in the diner, and Luke had been anxious to have a repeat of the night before with Lorelai. She hadn't said anything about it, but he knew she had been thinking about it. The look in her eyes gave her away. He walked over to the door and flipped over the Open sign. Lorelai started to ask him what he was doing, but he stopped her with a soul shattering kiss. Things started to heat up pretty quickly, and they stumbled up the stairs; their lips never lost contact. Clothes were flying everywhere, and by the time they reached the bed all worries were forgotten.
Hope you liked everything, and I LL fans probably enjoyed the last scene ;)!!!! Please Review now, cuz I am insecure hehe! In the eternal words of Apu, "Thank you, come again."
