Wow. I just want to thank everyone who reviewed. You gave me really positive feedback and that is what I needed to continue with this story so thanks. It was quite odd I was just thinking that I wasn't going to continue it, and then I checked my E-mails and I had nine E-mails with positive reviews. I was so happy. So I thank you to those who enjoy this story, and hope that others do too. So here's the next chapter.
Oh! I almost forgot to add that I knew all along who it was going to be coming into the diner, I was just seeing how many people thought it should be that person. Okay for real here it is.
Previously:
"Hey Luke…Isn't that?" Rory asked.
"This is a severe Thunderstorm Warning for the following areas: Star's Hollow, Bridgeport, Hartford, and Litchfield. Yes folks you heard right, a thunderstorm warning. It's been about five years since we've had a storm of this severity. it could last anytime between two hours to two days. It's relatively calm now so if you have somewhere to go, you better go now." The radio personality said.
"Rory, you've got to stay here." Luke said. Then he noticed who was coming in the door. "What are you doing here?" He asked shocked.
"I need to talk to you." He said.
It was at that moment that Luke noticed that the young man was holding a small bundle in his arms. "Is that-?" Luke asked puzzled.
"Luke this is your great-nephew Jacob Lucas Mariano." Jess told a shocked Luke.
"You have a baby?" Rory asked in shock.
"Yes." He answered.
"I, I, I'll be right back. I gotta go – do, something." Luke said going upstairs.
"So, what are you doing back in town?" Rory asked Jess shyly.
"I have to talk to Luke about something, I need his help." Jess told her.
"Oh." Rory said.
Meanwhile Luke was up in his apartment talking to Lorelai on the phone.
"Dragonfly Inn, this is Lorelai speaking."
"Lorelai."
"Hey! Have you heard the weather report? It's getting crazy out there."
"Yeah I know. Rory's here you know."
"She is? Oh I'm glad, I couldn't get a hold of her. I'll come over when I get off."
"Guess who else showed up at the diner?"
"I don't know, who?"
"Jess. And his son."
"Jess has a kid?"
"Yep. Jacob Lucas Mariano."
"He named him after you that's really sweet."
"Yeah I guess. Hey, what time do you get off work?"
"In about ten minutes, Why?"
"Because I don't want you out in this terrible storm. It's going to get worse soon."
"I'm gonna leave right now. I'll see you in a little bit."
"Be careful."
"I will. I love you."
"I love you too. Bye."
"Bye."
As Luke hung up the phone he heard.
"Aww, that was sweet Uncle Luke." Jess said.
"What is it exactly that you want?" Luke asked him.
"Look, I need your help." Jess said shuffling his feet and looking down.
"I knew it. You want me to take Jacob from you don't you. Let me guess you can't handle the pressure, It's harder than you thought it would be, and now your leaving him here. Now I will take care of him because he's family and that's what you do, but I just want to say that if you had been responsible you wouldn't have gotten yourself into this situation." Luke ranted.
"You know what, you don't know anything about my life, or what I've been doing the past few years. So don't judge ME okay?" Jess said storming down the stairs. He picked Jake up and started to open the door.
"Jess, wait!" Luke yelled.
Jess stopped, but didn't turn around.
"If you want to leave, that's fine. Just wait until the storms over, okay?" Luke told him.
"Fine. But when the storm has passed I'm gone." Jess said coming over to a table and then sitting down.
"Good. Rory, I called your mom, and she's on her way over." Luke said.
"Great." Rory said.
It was going to be a long night.
TBCOkay I hope you like it so far. I am obviously still working on this story and there will be more chapters. Please review.
Up next: Lorelai comes to the diner, and we learn why Jess came back to Star's Hollow.
