"Your love is confused, it's out off course
My love is innocent, it's sacred
You're love has no path, it's crazy
My love is urgent, it's despaired
But tell me what's the matter
In expect love from someone
That's so different from me"

Chap 06 - Gyn - Part II
Gyn went to the bar and left Rory wandering through her apartment. Rory could easily see how different their lives were and why Gyn hated her being with Jess so much... she figured that Gyn always thought Jess was just pretending to be a not-so-bad-boy because of Rory. And he would look like a lot more like Gyn if he were really being himself. It's like it was Rory's fault. She didn't get that he had changed. Now Rory understood that.
It was painful for Rory to realize how distant from Jess she was. She never thought they would grow apart as much as they did, and now looking into pictures of him, him and Gyn, she wandered how she this happen.
She called a pizza and listened some music. There was no TV to be watched at Gyn's place but Rory didn't really expect it to have. After an undefined time of boredom Rory decided to read. She took "100 Love Sonnets" by Pablo Neruda from her purse and started to read. She could easily remember the last time she had read Neruda. Jess was actually reading "100 Love Sonnets" and she was reading "20 Love Poems and a Song of Despair". Oh, it was like it had just happened.
*Flashback*
They were still lying in bed. His arm wrapped around her waist, his other hand holding the book he was reading. It was a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon in Jess' opinion. He looked over her shoulder to see what she was reading.
"Naked, you are simple as one of your hands,
Smooth, earthy, small, transparent, round:
You have moon-lines, apple-pathways:
Naked, you are slender as a naked grain of wheat."
He read out loud smiling. "How come you're not blushing?" he asked in a whisper.
"Let me read", she ignored him.
"Naked, you are blue as a night in Cuba;
You have vines and stars in your hair;
Naked you are spacious and yellow
As summer in a golden church."
"No blushing yet?" he asked her. When he was sure she wouldn't answer he kept whispering the poem in her ear in his husky voice.
"Naked, you are tiny as one of your nails -
Curved, subtle, rosy, till the day is born
And you withdraw to the underground world"
"Uh, that's turning me on. You sure you're not even a little embarrassed for reading in front of me? Or should I say to have me reading this to you? Especially since we're still in bed…" he asked smiling with a tone of judgment.
She turned her head to him blushing furiously, "You're SO mean."
He laughed softly and kissed her lightly on the lips. "And still you love me", he teased her.
Rory sighted, "You know, I can't understand how you never get embarrassed or uncomfortable with anything", she told him a little frustrated.
He smiled at her and got his forgotten book again, reading out loud,
"I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where,
I love you simply, without problems or pride:
I love you in this way because I don't know any other way of loving
But this, in which there is no I or you,
So intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand,
So intimate that when I fall asleep it is your eyes that close."
"That's my favorite poem", he pause, "and that's how I feel about you", he blushed lightly.
She knelt on bed getting on top of him. He rested his hands on her tights, looking down. Reaching his chin, she made him look at her.
"Rory, I really not like you. You can say anything about sex and I won't have a problem with it, I won't even blink. I'm so used to it, I mean, back in New York I was already experienced. But you, our current position makes you blush", he paused. And indeed Rory was blushing. "Now, if we start talking about what I feel, how I feel, then I'll have problems. It's just so… uncomfortable for me. You, on the other hand, were raised telling people how you felt. Are you understanding what I'm saying?"
Rory smiled, "That if I want to tease you as much as you tease me when you start talking about sex all I have to do is start a heart-to-heart conversation", she said playful.
Jess smiled at her childish way to see what he was telling her.
She leaned in, kissed his check and whispered, "I understand. I just want you to know that you can talk about anything to me. Including your feelings I'd love to hear about that."
She pulled herself away just a little, so they had eye contact. "Then it'd be a pleasure to hear you talking about sex", he smirked.
She blushed, "Maybe some other time."
"Right, right."
He turned her in bed so he was above her, kissing her. Their books forgotten aside.
*End of Flashback*
Yeah, she missed him. Not just his presence or his conversation, but his body and his comfort as well. He knew how to express everything he thought with words and everything he felt with looks and gestures. This was the way he was and this was what she missed so much. She started reading again and fell into a restless sleep.
Next morning she woke up, took a shower and got her things together before Gyn was awake.
When Gyn opened her eyes Rory was sat on a chair in front of her, sipping a mug of coffee.
"Why do I have the impression that you were just waiting me to wake up?"
Rory smiled, "Thank you for everything."
Gyn stood up and both girls hugged weirdly, "Your welcome."
She looked at Rory. "Damn it, I really shouldn't be doing this, but he's at Jack and Jen. Do you know where they live right?"
"Yes, I know. Thanks."
The two girls hugged again and Rory whispered to Gyn, "Don't worry, I'll take care of him."
Rory took her purse and left the apartment. She got in her car and drove off the road; it'd be a long trip.
