R: Jess is that really you?
J: I love you too.
R: Then why did you leave?
J: I didn't leave.
R: That's what my mom said.
J: Ror. I didn't leave.
R: Yes you did jess. You thought I wasn't good enough so you moved onto some other slut like that girl… Shane. I bet your dating her right now. I don't care though because ive… moved on.
J: It's been 1 day you can't have moved on. Because I love you and you love me.
R: Then why did you leave.
J: Do you really want to start again?
R: Where are you? You don't sound like you in California, although it does sound like the place ur in is noisy
J: Turn around
R: Why?
J: Just do it.
Rory turned around.
R: Is that…
J: Me? Yes Rory it's me.
R: Jess
Rory threw her arms around his neck and kissed him.
J: Can we be serious now
R: Serious as a monkey.
J: Really.
R: Ok.
J: Come with me.
R: Where?
J: Florida. You and Me, we can live together and go to school together.
She was stunned. Leave her mother? Leave Stars Hollow? Her home, her friends? Leave school and everything she'd worked for?
R: Yes.
J: Really?
R: Yes.
J: Ok. And I want you to know I'm in. I'm all in.
R: Jess? Do we really have the money for this? I have A LOT from my grandparents in the bank but it might only be enough for you and me to go to college.
J: I got a scholarship to the University of Florida.
R: (SCREAM) WHEN?
J: After I … got on the bus I pulled a note out of my bag and it was from Luke here… you can read it.
Rory nodded and opened the letter:
Dear Jess,
Leaving Rory is going to be the biggest mistake of your life. You shouldn't have made her fall in love with you because in three days she and her mom are leaving for Europe. I can't believe that after all you have been through your still treating her like crap. Oh and here is some letter from The University of Florida its addressed Jess Mariano so I guess it's for you. Well have a nice life with Jimmy. Oh and Call Rory. She needs you tell her that your gone, she can't hear it from me, or Lorelai… or Babette.
Sincerely,
Luke
p.s call your mom too!
Rory was in tears by the end of the letter.
R: Jess. When do we leave?
J: Now.
R: Ok. Just let me tell me Mom.
J: Already taken care of.
R: really?
J: No. Your mom hates me
R: She doesn't hate you Jess. She STRONGLY dislikes you.
J: As strong as King Kong.
R: Ha, Ha very funny
LONG DRAMATIC PAUSE
R: Oh my god! I have to go tell my mom that I cant go to Europe! What do I say to her?
J: Tell her the truth. Tell her you love me and that I treat you fine…. Are you regretting this?
R: Ok. Hey Jess?
J: Yeah?
R: Are you happy?
J: If you are.
JESS TURNS TOWARDS CAR BUT RORY GRABS HIS ARM.
R: Are you?
J: Leaving? Never
He kissed her gently on her forehead
J: Ill call you tomorrow.
