after the long awaited return...

CHAPTER 11

Lorelai was walking home from the diner when she spotted Rory walking home from where it looked to be the Library. Rory saw her mother at the same time. They both ran to each other and said at the same time, " He loves me!"

"He confessed that he loved you?" Rory said extactic.

"Yeah. Wait...Jess said he loved you?" Lorelai asked.

"Yeah! It came out of no where!" Rory said.

"Aww. That's great hon."

Jess had slipped into the diner when the two girls had been squealing away telling each other the details of their evenings.

Luke was wiping the counters down when he came in. 'Why the hell is he grinning like that?' Jess thought to himself. Jess became even more confused when Luke cut him a huge piece of apple pie and said, "Here, you must be hungry."

Jess looked confused. "Why the hell are you acting like this?"

It was Lukes turn to look confused. " Like what?"

"Nice."

"Oh come on. I've given you desserts before." Luke said, knowing that Jess knew something was up.

"Right. Okay, spill. Why are you smiling like an idiot?" Jess asked.

Knowing that Jess would not stop until the truth came out he admitted defeat and replied, "Uh.. Lorelai and I are...kinda dating." Luke waited for jess to double over laughing or to say some smart ass remark.

"Huh."

"That's all you have to say?"

"Not like its a huge secret the way you feel about her. The whole town knows Uncle Luke." Jess said.

"Jesus, stop with the uncle luke crap." 'God, that's annoying' Luke thought.

"Whatever you say boss." Jess said.

"Smart ass. So do u think that we should tell the town, I mean if they already knew how i felt then they probably wouldn't be too surprised right?"

"I don't know. They will probably find out eventually if you know what i mean." Jess said chuckling. "Going to bed now. Don't talk to me. " He said then dissapeared behind the curtain.

Luke continued wiping down the counters, continuing to grin like an absolute idot.
