9. What now?

The rest of the night, I lay in bed, thinking what would've happened if I ran away with Jess that dark night at Yale. Getting married and Jess ware two things that didn't go together. Jess never wanted commitment and to think, he was going to propose to me that night was a big surprise to me. Finally I got some sleep at what felt like six in the morning!

I woke up in the middle of the afternoon to the smell of fresh fruit and pancakes. I looked around and saw Paris humming to herself while taking a bite out of the fresh pineapple on the plate.

"Paris?" I asked while laughing a little.

Paris was startled to see me awake for a moment. "Oh, I didn't see you were awake."

"Oh don't mind me. Continue with you're morning song. Would you like me to invite the teletubbies over. I'm sure they'd love to sing and dance with you."

"Shut up Gilmore." Paris said while taking a bite out of her pancake.

"Please tell me you asked for coffee! You know how I get when I don't get coffee."

"Yeah, I did. Just to be on the safe side. Didn't want to get bruised like the last time."

I laughed.

The rest of the afternoon went by shopping at any clothing store we saw. We bought so many clothes that we could barely carry all of it. Shopping took my mind off a lot of things but as soon as we entered our hotel room, thoughts that had escaped my mind for a short amount of time caught up with me and began to suffocate my brain again.

I was meaning to call Jess and tell him to take the ring back because I don't deserve it but that would just make both of us feel uncomfortable especially after such a great time we had last night. I finally decided that I wouldn't mention it because that would make him feel worse about everything. I thought about how hard it must've been for Jess to keep that ring with him after all this time. If it were me, I would've thrown it away because I couldn't live with the fact that the person I loved was never meant to be with me.

"RORY! Are you listening? You seem so lost in space." Flinching, I realized Paris was waving her hand in my face trying to get my attention.

"Sorry Paris. What was that?"

Paris rolled her eyes and continued to talk. "I was saying that Jamie invited the both of us to this party. He says it'll be fun because it's full of people our age. Who knows, we might even see Madeline and Louise."

"Naah. I don't think so. I need a break from drinking and partying. It's all I do with Logan anyways."

"Come on Rory! What are you going to do all day in this hotel?"

"I'll call Jess over and we'll go watch a movie or something."

"Why don't you just bring Jess along to the party. I'm sure he'll enjoy it!"

"Uhhhh…"

"Then it's set you and Jess are coming."

"Why are you so persistent on me coming with you guys?"

"Because…Jamie knows mostly everyone there and I might feel left out if he leaves me to go with his other friends."

"So basically I'm your backup eh?"

"I'd refer to that as a good friend. Backup seems to negative."

"What time?" I said as I took out my cell phone from my purse.

"Starts at 8pm. But people come a bit later."

I began to dial Jess's number. It ringed about two times and then someone picked up.

"Hey Rory."

"Hey Jess. I was wondering. Do you have any plans for tonight?"

"Nope, I'm free. Why what's up?"

"It's just, Paris invited me to this party and she said I could bring a friend along. So I thought I'd ask you."

"Well how nice of you to think of me. What's the catch?"

"Nothing, it's just a casual party that's all. So are you coming?"

"Sure. But it's only because I have nothing to do tonight."

"And I thought you were a busy man being a writer and all." I said smiling.

He laughed. "When should I pick you up?"

"Umm…how about 9pm?"

"Sound good. I guess I'll see you then."

I shut my cell phone and looked at Paris who was staring at me as if she were fascinated by what just happened.

"What?" I asked.

"Nothing. It just seems Snow White was blushing when she was asking Prince Charming out."

"Shut up Paris!" I grinned throwing a pillow at her.
