While the girls walked into Cappy's, Rory was being watched by Sarah and Paris. Rory tried to ignore it until Paris pointed at Jess. "Paris!"
"Sorry. I knew it would be him, though. Why couldn't you just admit it?" Paris asked.
"It's not a big deal. Plus, he's coming over here, just stop," Rory said before smiling at Jess, who was now standing in front of them. "Hi Jess."
"Hi Rory. How are you?" Jess asked.
"I'm great. Jess, you remember Paris, and this is our friend, Sarah," Rory introduced.
"Yeah, it's nice to see you again. It's nice to meet you, Sarah," he said, extending his hand.
"Yeah, it's nice to meet you," Sarah said. She was still in awe after realizing who she was meeting. She shook Jess' hand and smiled as Dave came over to the group.
"Hey Dave," Rory said.
"Hi Rory. Hey Jess," Dave said back.
"Hey Dave," Jess said.
"Dave, this is Paris and Sarah, my friends and room mates," Rory introduced again.
"Wow, it's nice to meet you guys. I got to go confer with the band. We go on in an hour," Dave explained. He walked away and Sarah watched him the entire time. Both Paris and Rory noticed.
Paris exclaimed, "Sarah."
"What?" She asked.
"Never mind. I'm going to get a drink. Anybody want anything?" Paris asked.
"Beer," Rory said.
"Same," Jess answered.
"Great, I'll be right back," Paris said before Sarah could even answer.
"So, Rory, how have you been liking New York?" Jess asked when Paris left.
"I love it. The past three years have been amazing," Rory answered.
"Do you still keep in touch with Lorelai?"
"Yeah, I talked to her today. Do you still keep in touch with Luke?"
"Yeah, I talked to him last week, I think," Jess answered. "Sarah, how long have you been living here?"
"All my life. I moved in with Rory and Paris two years ago," Sarah answered, now looking at Jess.
"Nice. They're good people," Jess explained, looking at Rory.
"Yeah, we try," Rory said before the three started laughing.
Paris came back with Rory's and Jess' beers. "Thanks Paris," Jess said before taking a swig of his beer. Rory nodded and took a drink of her own.
"No problem," Paris said. The DJ stopped playing music and announced that a band was starting. The band started and Jess and Rory sat down at an empty table and Sarah and Paris sat down with them. Dave walked over to the table where nobody was talking, just listening to the music and taking sips of their drinks.
He sat down next to Sarah and smiled. Sarah smiled back, obviously attracted. She loved musicians, in fact, she only dated musicians. "Hi Dave. So how long have you been playing?" Sarah asked. Now everybody looked over at them.
"Well, I've been playing guitar since I was thirteen and the drums since I was twenty," Dave explained.
"What do you play in this band? I mean with Lane, Zach, and Brian you were playing guitar," Rory asked, she was curious if Dave was wondering about Lane and the guys.
"I'm still playing guitar, drums are mostly a hobby," Dave explained while taking a drink of his own beer. "How are Lane and the guys anyways? Do you still keep in touch with them?"
"Yeah, me and Lane talk almost everyday. She's actually engaged..." Rory said.
"Wow, anybody I know?" Dave asked.
Rory looked from Dave to Jess then down at the table. When she looked up at Dave she said, "Yeah, actually. Her and Zach are getting married."
"That's amazing," Jess chimed in. "How long have they been together?"
"Four years, I think. It's pretty good," Rory explained. Dave and Jess nodded.
"Rory, isn't Lane coming to see you this week?" Paris asked, and Sarah nodded.
"Yes she is, she's coming Sunday. I'm taking the week off so that we can spend the week together," Rory said to Paris. Now the table was quiet again.
Sarah then spoke up, "I'm gonna go get a drink." Dave stood up so that Sarah could get out, he then decided to follow her to the bar.
