Just Come Home
Summary: I wrote this story so that it takes place right after Jess crashed Rory's car in the episode Teach Me Tonight. It's a story of how things could have gone if Rory had gotten in touch with Jess right after he left.
What had just happened? Were Miss Patty and Babette right? Was Jess really gone?
Rory had just heard that Jess had left town. She was watching The Yearling with her town and overheard the two gossipers talking. She had just been laughing from watching Kirk's short film but now she was upset, She sunk down in her chair and tried to think. She needed to leave.
"Mom," she said.
"Yeah, hon?" Lorelai answered while shoveling more popcorn into her mouth.
"I'm going to go home…" Rory stated uneasily.
"What, hon, why?" Lorelai asked, concerned.
"Well, umm, my arm is bothering me. I just am gonna go…"
"Oh honey let me go with you." Lorelai said, starting to stand up.
"No." Rory said, almost pleading. "I just want to rest. I want to read and relax. You're here with Dad and Sookie. Please just stay. I'm fine."
"Okay…" Lorelai hesitated. "Call me if you need me."
"I will." Rory kissed Lorelai and then leaves.
On the way home, Rory felt different. This was something she hadn't felt before. She was lonely. In this town it was hard to ever feel lonely but she was. She wrapped her arms tightly around her in the cold air. She wasn't alone for long though.
Well it's the first chapter to my first story. I really don't know how to divide up the story so the chapters are going to be short. Please review. :-)
