Different PlansPictures
"Hello Uncle Luke." Said Jess.
Luke, who was a little out of it and shocked, looked up from his order pad. "Jess." He said.

Rory awoke to find a post-it note on her head. It read: 'Lunch at the Inn'
Rory looked at the clock and saw that it was 10:07. Rory went to get Eitan up and saw that he was watching T.V. in the living room. Rory had some coffee and then went to the Dragonfly.
At ThE dRaGoNfLy InN
Rory walked into her mother's Inn and went up to the front desk. "Hey Michel." Rory said with a smirk.
"Rory? What are you doing here?" He asked snootily. Then he looked at Eitan. "You brought another one here to torture me?" He exclaimed.
"Michel, where's my mom?" Asked Rory.
"In her office." Michel told her.
"Thanks. See ya later Michel." Rory said smiling.
As Rory entered her mother's office she noticed Lorelai was not there, so she decided to wait for her. So, she sat Eitan down on a chair with one of his favorite toys, and looked at the pictures on Lorelai's desk. There was one of her mother and Luke at their wedding, another was a family portrait of her mom, Luke, Bernie and Will, one was Rory's graduation, and the last one was a picture of Luke and Jess. Rory was shocked to see that there.
Rory picked up the picture to look at it more closely. It looked as if they were at a picnic of some sort. The picture had to be candid, because Rory knew they never would have posed for a picture together. They were talking and Luke was smiling and had his hand on Jess' shoulder. They looked happy. The door opened and her mother entered, Rory quickly placed the picture back down on her mother's desk and turned around to greet her.
"Hey mom." Rory said.
"Hey, I'm surprised to see you here so early." Lorelai said with a light smile.
"Well, I didn't have anything else to do. Is it okay that I'm here? I'm not interrupting anything am I?" Rory replied.
"No, it's fine." Lorelai said. "So, how's Eitan doing this morning?"
"He's feeling a little better. That's kinda what I need to talk to you about." Rory said.
"Oh?" Lorelai said with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah." Rory said biting her lip.
"Okay. What do you want to talk about."
"I was just wondering if…" Rory paused. "Has Luke kept in contact with Jess?"
"Yes." Lorelai said, knowing where she was going with this.
"Well, I need to talk to him. Tell him about Eitan, his situation, you know things like that." Rory told her.
"Is that all you want to tell him?" Lorelai asked her.
"Uh huh." Rory said not looking her mother in the eye.
"Okay." Lorelai said not believing her. "I'll tell Luke to invite Jess over for a visit. He hasn't been around in a while." Lorelai said.
"Okay, that would be good." Rory said.
"I'll tell him later. What do you say to lunch at Luke's?" Lorelai asked.
"I say, that sounds good!" Rory said relieved.
"Okay, let's go then." Lorelai said getting up and heading out the door.
Rory got Eitan and followed behind her.
At ThE dInEr
Luke was hurrying around with his order pad taking people's orders. It always seemed to be busier when Caesar had off. Luke couldn't even take a break. Lorelai, Rory, and Eitan came in and took a seat at an uncleared table. Luke didn't even notice because there were so many impatient people in the diner.
"Hey honey you need some help?" Lorelai asked coming up to the counter where Luke was getting the costumers' food.
"Lorelai" He said shocked.
"Yes. Who else calls you honey?" Lorelai says confused.
"Sorry, I just wasn't expecting you to come in here that's all. Where's Rory?" HE asked.
Lorelai points to the table where she is sitting and playing with Eitan.
"Oh." Says Luke swallowing.
"Luke, are you okay?" Lorelai asked concerned.
"Yeah, it's just that I had a visitor this morning." Luke said.
"Who?" Asked Lorelai.
"Is that my burger?" Asked Kirk?
"Yes, Kirk. Hold on I'll be right back." Luke said.
Then Jess came down the stairs from above and put on apron and started taking orders. Lorelai looked shocked and went over to Luke.
"Jess is here?" Lorelai asked.
"Um yeah." He said. He walked back behind the counter. "What are you doing?" He asked Jess.
"You obviously need some help." Jess said.
As Jess spoke Rory looked up at him. 'Jess is here?' Thought Rory. 'Did Luke call him earlier? No, he couldn't have had enough time to do that.'
Lorelai returned to the table. "Well, Luke won't have to make that phone call after all." Lorelai said with a fake chuckle.
