Chapter 3- Restraining order. Right.

"Should we get a lawyer?" Rory asked the group of people that surrounded her at the kitchen table.

They were the most important people in Lora's life, the ones who made the choices; Rory, Jess, Lorelai, and Luke. Together they formed a council, Lorelai and Rory had buttons made, no one ever wore them, of course.

Right now they all sat discussing the matter of Tristen.

"I don't know, isn't that a little much?" Luke asked.

"You didn't see what happened. He was like, scary almost." Lorelai told him.

"I wasn't scared." Jess added.

"I still cant believe you punched him." Rory said

"Yeah that was pretty heroic." Lorelai added.

"You really shouldn't condone him punching people. Not saying that the jerk didn't have it coming but still." Luke told them.

"Well I think a lawyer and a restraining order would be good." Rory told everyone.

Luke nodded his agreement.

"Yeah." Jess said.

"Definitely something we need to do." Lorelai agreed.

"Well who do we go through?" Rory asked.

"Eva and Adolph?" Lorelai suggested.

"Oh now I really don't think it's fair calling Grandpa Adolph." Rory argued.

"No that was Grandma."

"Oh. Well yeah, they got big shot lawyer friends."

"Exactly. So its agreed, at Friday night dinner, we'll casually bring it up when Lora isn't in the room." Lorelai explained her plan.

"That's great, but when is Lora not in the room at Friday night dinner?" Jess asked.

"Well you know you'll just have to take her to the play room and get her out of the room." Lorelai smiled.

Jess rolled his eyes.

"Alright so okay. That's it." Rory said.

"No, no, no. You're doing it all wrong." Lorelai told Rory, "You have to bang the pump heel on the table and say meeting adjourned."

"Oh my mistake." Rory banged the heel of the pump that was her 'Gavel' and announced, "Meeting adjourned."

"There you go." Lorelai smiled and all other occupants of the table rolled their eyes as they stood up and went there separate ways.

"Hey Ror. I'm gonna go pick up Lora. She gets out about now." Jess said, picking up his car keys.

"Okay. Be safe." Rory kissed him.

"Bye." He kissed her again.

"Be safe." She told him as he left.

Rory spotted Jess' phone and ran out after him. He rolled down the window as she approached.

"Take this." Rory commanded.

"No." Jess refused.

"Come on. What if I need to get in touch with you?"

"I hate cell phones. I've only ever had one and that was when I was in Italy. I have no need for a cell phone." Jess argued.

"God you know you are just as bad as Luke." Rory gave him a look.

"Fine." Jess said taking the phone from Rory and tossing it onto the seat next to him.

"Thank you." She smiled.

"Uh huh." Jess said rolling his eyes.

"No you should get going. Don't wanna keep Lora waiting. Right."

"Right." Jess agreed.

"Bye."

"Bye." Jess said pulling out of the drive way.

-

"Daddy!" Lora said running towards Jess.

"Hey honey." Jess said picking her up and hugging her. "How was school?" He asked putting her down and taking her backpack.

"Good. Today this boy named Carson, he ate the glue for the art project!" Lora said excitedly.

"Wow." Jess said taking her hand and walking her to the car.

"Yeah and when Mrs. White found him he had glitter and sequins on his mouth!" Lora giggled. "They were pink!"

Jess laughed. "So what'd Mrs. White do?"

"She sent him to the nurse. Jackie, one of the fifth graders called him a dork and said he'd be throwing up pink glitter for days."

Jess had to laugh. "Well-" He stopped as he noticed a familiar blonde walking their way.

Luckily they we within feet of the car. Jess helped Lora in.

"Lora baby, stay in here. I'll be right here. Don't move. Okay."

"Okay." Lora said confused.

Jess shut the door and locked to car. He walked a few feet to meet Tristen.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Jess asked angrily.

"I came to see my daughter." Tristen said evilly.

"Go home Tristen." Jess demanded.

"No." Tristen said pushing Jess to the side in an attempt to get to the car, and Lora.

Jess pushed back. People started to gather.

"You need to go. Now!"

"No. I need to see my little girl."

"God get it through your head. She's not your little girl."

"You know. I may have been a stupid teenager, but now I'm going to be her father."

"You don't get it. No one wants you to be her father! I am her father! She calls me Daddy! She is my daughter! And don't you dare think, for one minute, you can take her away from me and Rory!" Jess yelled.

"Oh. Did I hit a nerve?" Tristen asked cockily.

"No. Don't think that you have any sort of power over me or Rory. You don't."

"Oh, but I think I do."

"No you really don't. And you never will. So stop trying, and get the hell out of here!" Jess fumed.

Tristen nodded. "Just wait. I will. I will." He said walking away.

Jess shook his head and walked back to the car where Lora was sitting watching him.

He got in and looked over at her.

"Who was that?" She asked.

"No one." Jess said as he started the car.

-

"We need a lawyer now." Jess said as soon as he got Rory alone.

"What?"

"He was at the school." Jess explained.

"Oh my god."

"Yeah. And Lora saw me talking to him and he said some stupid things that were pig headed and.. just Grr! I swear to god it took everything in my power to not punch him again. And I would have, but Lora was watching."

"Well I'm glad you didn't hit him. What did you tell Lora?"

"Nothing. She asked who he was and I said no one. I really didn't want to tell her."

"I get it. But we will have to explain eventually."

"Yeah I know. Until then.."

"Restraining order. Right."
