Amy Sherman Palladino owns everyone and a little of the dialogue from the first chapter.

"So, Rory, where to?"

She looked at me for a minute, a smirk on her face. "Anywhere?"

"Anywhere."

"It can be far away?"

"Rory when I was 18 I found away to get from Stars Hollow to Venice Beach on about 100 dollars."

She nodded. "Right, so, anywhere then. Let's go to…San Francisco!"

She looked at me as if she expected me to say something else, something contradictory, like she expected me to say no. I started the car and started to drive away. "San Francisco it is."

After a few miles, she looked at me, putting her hand on my arm. "Jess, you know I'm going to have to call her, right? I have to tell her where I am, why I'm not going to stars hollow."

I kept my eyes on the road, staring straight ahead. "I know."

"I can do it tomorrow morning. I don't have to do it now."

I nodded. "Okay." I thought for a few minutes. "Rory, you know, when you call her….she's going to say things, she's going to try to convince you that….that you made a mistake. That you should get out, go home. Rory-"

"No Jess." She looked at me, "No, I said I'd give you a second chance and I will. This is what I want.

"Okay. Good."

"Great." She kissed my cheek and we kept driving.

"So Jess, read any good books lately?"

I pulled over. We needed gas. Rory was asleep already, but I thought she might be hungry, I knew she would be hungry.

I shook her shoulder gently. "Rory. Rory?"

"Mmmmmmmmmm"

"Rory. We stopped. Do you want some food? Come inside, get some food."

She started to get up. We walked to the convenience store. I put my arm around her waist. She stopped, making me stop with her. She turned to face me. "Rory?"

"Jess, wait. Jess, what are we doing? Are we dating? Right now, are we dating, you know, like doing the whole dating thing? Or are we just friends right now?"

Wow, the things I could say to that. What I wanted to say, something along the lines of, 'God yes. Yes we're dating.' Then she would grab me and kiss me like there was no tomorrow. That wasn't going to happen though. "Whatever you want Rory."

"So…if I want to be dating…?"

I smiled. "Sounds good to me."

"So… we do things that dating couples do?"

I raised my eyebrows at her. I didn't know where this was heading. She pinched my shoulder playfully. I laughed. "Ow...Sounds about right."

She nodded. Then she leaned forward and kissed me. It felt like heaven. I thought I missed her before, but no, I had missed her too much to explain. Her lips felt so good on mine. They felt like a promise. A promise that this was going to work. That she was going to try her best to make it work. That it was my responsibility to make it work.

We broke apart. I smiled at her as we turned to walk to the store. "Rory?"

"Jess?"

"I…I really, really missed you."

"I know. I missed you to."

"And, I love you. And it's okay if you don't want to say it back because I broke your heart and I left you, but, I know that you used to love me. I'm going to try to make you love me again. Do you think you could ever love me again?" I looked at her, hopefully.

"Yeah Jess. I think I could love you again. In fact, I'm not sure about this, but, I think I might love you now. I think I just might."

I smiled, put my arm around her, and guided her to store. I kissed the top of her head. Her hair smelled like peaches.

I opened the door for her. There was no one in the store.

"Wow, what time is it. How long have I been asleep?"

"It's around one. No need to freak out." I paused, looking at the shelved. "Beef Jerky?"

"Please, oh, and can we get Pringles and Oreos... ooh!Peanut butter!"

"Yes ma'am. Oooh," I started, playing along with her game, "can I get Cheez Nips and Red Bull and cheerios?"

"Right, well, If you get all that, then I get Coffee and Gummy bears."

"Of course," I stopped scanning the shelves for one last thing, "Okay I get M n' M's."

"God, how could we not get M n' M's? I mean, what would the gummy bears have to play with?"

"Beats me. Okay, so, we get Beef Jerky, Pringles, Oreos, peanut butter, Cheez Nips, Red Bull, Cheerios, Coffee, Gummy Bears, M n' M's, and, how about two sandwiches?"

"Sounds like a home cooked meal." She said in all honesty. I laughed.

We paid for our food, and left.

"Jess?"

"Rory." I said. We were in the car, but we were still parked, we were dividing all the food, opening everything up.

"Um, you know, it's getting late. Aren't you kind of tired. Do you think we should stop somewhere?"

Yes, I wanted to stop somewhere. I was tired. I didn't want to make her fell uncomfortable though. "Is that okay with you?"

"Yea, I mean, I cant make you drive all night," she started eating some Pringles.

"Okay, so we stop."

"Yes."

R-E-V-I-E-W

Ok, thanks syou oh so much for the reviews. I love them. It rocks, getting reviews. Hey, yeah, I know, Jess is a little OOC. But, during that episode, where he is at Rory's dorm, it was so sad. He was acting way different than he was in season 3. His voice, maybe this was just me, but I think I heard his voice cracking. God, it was so romantic. I swear, I cried. Haha, I know I know, I am a sap, it's pathetic. Anyway, I really like this story, so I'm going to try to make it long.

Oh, and, sometimes I have trouble updating so sorry if there are any long delays, but keep cheking and reviewing!
