Chapter Four
On the following days, she saw Jess with his new girlfriend almost everywhere. Every step she took, there he was. And everytime she saw him with her, she felt a shooting pain, but she didn't want to take that for real. She just told her mind that this pain wasn't because of him having another girl. She even went to a doctor, who should check what this pain was about. But he told her that everything was normal, physically...
And then there was the call from her mother. She was so happy that Lorelai actually called and wanted to talk about everything she did in Greece until she heard the terrible news...

Rory sat on a bench and watched the stars, crying. She thought about what her mother told her this morning.
Rory, I have to tell you something...Rory cried harder and harder. She began to shiver in the cold wind and slung her arms around herself.
"No. No. NO! That can't be true. Why???"
Suddenly she heard footsteps behind her.
"Rory? What you're doing out here? It's raining, don't you notice that? You're totally soaked."
"Leave me alone!" Rory began to sob again. She actually didn't notice it's raining, but she also didn't care.
"Rory? What's wrong?" Jess wanted to touch her shoulder, but she pulled away rapidly.
"I said you should leave me alone! Nothing is wrong with me! Besides you would be the last person I would tell if there is something wrong."
"I'm not leaving till you tell me what's wrong with you and why you're crying." With that he sat down next to her.
"You wouldn't care because I obviously mean nothing to you. So just go away!"
"I do care about you. Why should I ask you why you're crying if I don't? So, please tell me."
Rory just cried and sobbed hard. Jess pulled her in his arms and she didn't break away, she just cried in his arms against his shoulder. She felt his warm body and it was not important anymore what he did to her. He stroked her hair softly and whispered something in her ear to calm her down. She felt so protected in his arms and never wanted to pull away again. Slowly she calmed down and said, still sobbing:
"My mum called me today. And she said, she said..." Rory felt new tears streaming down her cheeks and couldn't continue. Jess pulled away to look in her face. Rory saw the concern in his eyes.
"It's ok, Rory. What did you're mother tell you?"
"My grandfather is", she sobbed deeply "dead." Then she began to cry again and Jess pulled her closely. He began to stroke her hair again and just let her cry.

The next morning, Rory lay in her bed as somebody knocked at her door. She stood up and opened the door.
"Hey, Ror." Jess passed a cup of coffee to Rory. She smiled and took a sip.
"Oh, you're a god. Thank you!"
"Yeah, I know. Lots of girls say that to me.", grinned Jess. Rory just raised her eyebrown at him and took another sip of her coffee. She felt the hot liquid streaming down her throat and that made her feel a lot better just like Jess's smile.
"So, how you're feeling today?"
"A little better. Thank you for yesterday. That really meant a lot to me."
"You're welcome. So, how about breakfast?"
"And you're girlfriend?"
"Rory, she's not my girlfriend and please, I don't want to argue about it again. I just want to spent breakfast with you, ok?"
"Yeah, of course. Just let me put some clothes on."
Jess grinned and said: "Why? You're looking good in this, really."
Rory looked down and saw a white tank top and a trouser with coffeepots on it.
"And don't think so. I'll be in the lobby in half an hour, ok?"
"Ok, see you."
Jess took Rory to a little diner in the next city. The breakfast was delicious and they talked all the time. That almost made Rory forget about her grandfather. Then she saw a man entering the diner who looked exactly the same as her grandfather. She felt tears coming to her eyes.
"...and then there was this..." Jess looked at Rory and saw her painfull glare at something behind him. He turned and just saw a man.
"Rory? Ror, what's wrong?" She didn't answer, just glared at the man with tears streaming down her cheeks. Jess took her hand.
"Rory, please talk to me. What's wrong?"
"This man...he looks like my grandfather. I thought he is my grandfather, but no! He's dead!" Rory now began to sob deeply. Jess sat down next to her and pulled her closely. After a few minutes, Rory calmed down and pulled away slowly. The man was away.
"Thanks. It's ok now. I'm sorry, I didn't want to ruin your breakfast."
"Hey, you didn't ruin it. It's normally that you're hurt and I'm here for you." Rory smiled and quickly squeezed his hand.
"Thank you so much. I don't know what I would to without you." Jess smiled at her and said:
"Hey, I have something for you. Maybe that'll make you feel better. Would you meet me tonight at 7 o'clock in the lobby?"
"Why? What you have planned?"
"That's a surprise."
"Oh come on. What is it? Please tell me otherwise I don't know what to wear."
"No, it's a surprise. And you look great in everything, you know that. Try something decent and that will do."
"Ok... How about you buy me another coffee for the ride to the hotel?"
"You had already 5 cups. Don't you think that's enough?"
"Not for a Gilmore girl. I just started." Rory smiled and led Jess to the counter. He just laughed and paid the coffee.
