Boyfriends And Other Stuff

Lorelei and Rory were walking towards the diner when they saw a big crowd around Doose's.

"Come on, let's go see what's going on." Lorelei said pulling Rory's arm.

There was a chalk outline of a body and caution tape around it.

"You think it's real?" Kirk said.

"Yes of course it is, right?" Taylor replied.

Rory looked at and then saw Jess. She smiled, they both knew who did it.

"Wow, we sure do know that Jess' back. Taylor's face was priceless! Okay, I am going to the diner. Meet you there!" Lorelei exclaimed.

Rory walked away and started heading towards the diner when Jess walked up next to her.

"That was mean."

"What, you think I did it?" Jess asked innocently.

"Jess…" she warned.

"What did you think of it? "

She smiled then started laughing. He smirked. She suddenly felt arms around her waist and someone kissed her on the cheek.

"Hey, Rory." Dean said as she turned around.

"Hi," she said awkwardly.

"Boyfriend?" Jess asked.

Rory just nodded feeling guilty.

"Huh," he said and looked them over.

Rory mouthed "What?" He shook his head and walked away.

"So, I don't think I will have to work today." Dean said staring at the crowd.

"Yeah, but I can't hang out today, I still didn't finish my homework and later tonight Luke is coming over for dinner."

"Oh, okay." Dean said feeling disappointed.

"I have to get to the diner. See you later." she said and gave him a quick kiss. She walked away.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Later in the evening

Rory walked into the kitchen.

"Does he eat meat?" Sookie asked.

"Yes."

"Okay, just making sure."

"Don't worry, your food tastes great!" Rory said and walked into her room.

She heard her mom saying something about being here. She didn't pay attention. She just needed to finish something really quick, when she heard a familiar voice say, "Well aren't we hooked on phonics?" She looked up and saw Jess. She got up and hugged him.

"Why do you have homework?" he asked.

"I go to Chilton."

"So, you got into your dream high school? How?"

"My grandparents."

"Huh."

Flashback

Rory came running to the bridge and saw him.

"I want to go to Chilton. It's perfect. This can help me go to Harvard." she said waving the brochure in his face.

He took it from her and read it.

"It looks so… Rich. How are you going to get in?"

"I don't know just yet, but I will think of a way."

End of Flashback

"What?"

"Nothing." he said smirking.

"Come on, dinner is ready." he said and went to eat.

After they ate, they went on the front porch.

"You want to go to the bridge?" he said getting up.

"Sure."

He pulled her up.

"Race you!" Rory said, of course getting a head start.

He ran after her and lost.

"I won!"

"No, we tied."

"You just won't admit you lost to a girl…"

"Doesn't this sound familiar?"

Rory giggled and sat down beside him. She laid her head on his shoulder.

He doesn't seem different at all, she thought.

"What was that before you left to go to the diner?"

"What was what about?"

"You know what I mean." Rory said referring to the "Dean" reaction.

"I just thought about why you and bagboy are together."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"I mean that you guys don't look like you have anything in common and whatever happened to Justin?"

She faced him. "Yes, we do, you just don't know him. And Justin, turns out I didn't like him after all. I found out that I wanted to like him. I just pretended to like him to cover up who I really liked."

"Huh. And who was that?"

She playfully punched him. "Like I am going to tell you who I liked again. Plus, I already have a boyfriend, so why would I need to like someone?"

She was secretly talking about him. When he left she found out how much she liked him.

Jess pulled something out of his pocket. Oliver Twist.

"Hey, that's mine!"

"I can't you believe you still have this." Jess said examining the writing inside.

"Why wouldn't I have?"

"Nevermind. Come on, let's go back."

She looked at him for a moment before going up after him.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

So, what did you guys do all night?" Lorelei asked curiously.

"We just talked."

"All night?"

"What did you expect? We haven't seen each other in 5 years!"

"Right."

Rory spotted Dean and waved. He came over.

"Hey, Dean," Lorelei said.

"Hey."

"Hey."

She kissed him.

"You want to have breakfast with us?"

"At Luke's?"

"Where else?"

"Oh… Luke doesn't like me too much." Dean said remembering what happened when they first broke up.

"Come on. He doesn't hate you."

"You don't know that."

"Fine, at least walk me there and meet me back there at 10:00."

"Okay," he said and kissed her.

He walked with them to the diner and Lorelei went in while Rory stayed behind.

"Okay, meet you here later."

They kissed for at least a minute. When they pulled away, Rory blushed. She usually doesn't like to kiss in front of everyone to watch. He walked away and she entered the diner.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Jess POV

Jess saw them kissing in the front. He tightened his grip onto the coffee pot.

"Um, Jess. I appreciate the coffee, but do you think I can drink it from the table." Lorelei asked.

H noticed he overfilled Lorelei's cup/

"Oh,"

He cleaned it up. Rory walked in. He just goes back to work pretending that never happened.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Lorelei POV

She notices Jess staring at Dean and Rory outside. She smiles. The cup he was filling was starting to overflow.

"Um, Jess, I appreciate the coffee, but do you think I can drink it from the table?"

He comes back to his senses.

"Oh,"

He cleans it fast knowing Rory was going to come in any minute and see his not so smooth move.

------------------------------------------------------------------

So, how come he is not coming inside?" Lorelei asks.

"He thinks Luke hates him.'

Jess comes up to them.

"Why isn't your boyfriend coming in?"

"He thinks Luke hates him." Lorelei answers.

"Huh."

"What?"

"No, tell me."

"What is Luke going to do? Threaten him with a spatula?"

"You weren't here when something happened to him."

"Tell, me, what happened?"

"Later."

"You know, boyfriends shouldn't care, if their girlfriends want them there they should be."

"Well, I didn't tell him he had to be here." Rory says defensively getting annoyed.

"Woah, geez. No need to get all ballistic on me."

"Sorry, I just haven't had my coffee yet."

"Wow, I thought I'd never see the day… Rory a coffee addict? But we used to make fun of your mom."

Rory laughed. "You better believe it." she said as she playfully punched him.

"Should I be scared? I saw what happens when you don't give coffee to your mom. Now, there's two of you!"

"Yes. Yes, you should."

"Jess, get back to work." Luke yelled.

Jess rolled his eyes and got back to work.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Dean POV

Who was that guy? Why is Rory flirting with him? She is my girlfriend, he thought as he watched that boy talk to Rory from the window.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

"Okay, late." Rory said as she and Lorelei left.

"Who's that?"

"Oh, I didn't tell you about him?"

He shook his head.

"We were old friends. We were friends when were just kids."

"Are you kidding me? Those kids went everywhere together. They were more like the best of friends. Kinda how me and Rory have, but different." Lorelei butted.

"So, you guys were just friends?"

Rory and Lorelei exchanged looks.

"Yeah… of course. I was just 11 when he moved away."

"Oh, okay," Dean said looking relieved.

"Well, I have to get to the inn. See you lovebirds later!"

"Bye,"

"So, what do you say? Movies?"

"Okay."
