Chapter 15 - Stars Hollow Again

**Stars Hollow**

"Luke come on!" Lorelei yelled walking into the diner "We have to pick up Rory and Jess"

"Alright, I'm coming" Luke said walking out of the back . "Lets go."

"Are you forgetting something?"

"Umm… not that I know of."

"Coffee Luke, I need coffee."

"Ok fine" he got her a cup.

" Ok now we can go." Lorelei said exiting the diner.

**Airport**

Rory and Jess got off the plane, they looked around for Lorelei and Luke but couldn't find them.

"Let's get our bags and hit the café place for coffee." Rory suggested taking Jess' hand.

"Alright but what if they can't find us."

"They will, trust me, if they don't they'll go to the information desk and call for us."

"Yeah or they can just call your cell phone." Jess told her smiling.

"Yeah they could, but what fun would that be?"

Luke and Lorelei walked over to where Jess and Rory's plane was unboarding.

"Where are they?" Luke asked looking around.

"I don't know." Lorelei replied taking Lukes hand. "Ooh, what's that smell…. Coffee!! I bet we'll find Rory and Jess where the coffee is." She continued, smelling the air.

"Lorelei, you look stupid doing that. It's not going to work."

"Well Luke, we can try it then if it doesn't work, we can go to the information desk and call for them. Don't forget I have one hell of a nose." she said pulling him toward the smell of the coffee.

"We're not going to the information desk, you can call her cell phone."

"But that's not fun!….. Rory!!" she screamed seeing Rory in the café where her nose led her.

"Mom!" Rory got up quickly and ran over to her.

"See Luke I told you we'd find them." Turning back towards Rory she said, "I smelled coffee and figured you'd be near it. So I followed my nose. Luke said it wouldn't work. I told him if it didn't we could go to the information desk, but he said we could just call your cell phone. But that wouldn't have been any fun."

"Oh my God, Jess and I had almost the exact same conversation." Rory smiled hugging her mom.

**Luke's**

Lorelei and Rory are seated at the counter, Jess is pouring them coffee.

"Jess, a package came for you today." Luke said passing him a brown box.

"Thanks." he turned to Rory. "Take your coffee, I have something to show you."

"Ok" she said standing. Jess took her hand and led her to the bridge. They sat down

"Here, this is for you." he handed her the box.

"What is it?"

"Open it and see."

She opened the package to find Jess' new book.

"Oh my God Jess!"

"It's the very first copy. Open it, read." he smiled at her.

'California Curse' She opened the book to the first page and read.

'This book is dedicated to Rory Gilmore, you're the best thing to ever happen to me, I love you and I never want to loose you again.'

Rory looked up at Jess, he was on one knee.

"Rory…. Will you marry me?" he asked pulling out a small blue box.
She smiled looking into his dark brown eyes.

"Yes!" He kissed her long and hard, they finally broke apart.

They sat there holding each other as Rory picked up the book. She opened it but immediately set it down.

"Your not gonna read it?" Jess asked looking down at her.

"Jess, I can't right now, I can't concentrate on anything. Come on." she stood taking his hand.

"Where are we going?"

"The diner, I have to tell mom." She said pulling him up.

"But I want to spend time with you, like we were going to do just now."

"Jess, right after I tell my mom, we'll go for a walk ok?"

"Fine lets go." he took her hand and started walking towards the diner.

By the time they got there, Rory was practically running, puling Jess behind her.

"Mom!" she screamed, running in.

"What?" Lorelei asked turning towards her daughter.

"Jess… he… and…" she studdered, finally showing her mom her hand.
