Chapter 3 The next morning
Jess awoke first when his alarm clock started buzzing that it was time for him to get up and get ready for work. Something he normally liked to do but now with the brunette slightly stirring in his arms from the buzzing alarm and his movement to shut it off he did not want to get up.
"mmmhmm" Rory stirred and pulled his arm tighter around her as she tiredly opened his eyes to make sure she wasn't dreaming the events last night or the nice muscular scent she now smelled that was so Jess. Seeing his apartment she closed her eyes again satisfied.
Jess leaned in closer to her and nuzzled on her neck to her earlobe getting a satisfying moan from the girl in his arms before his said softly "I have to get ready for work."
Rory shook her head and held unto his arm refusing to let him get up and leave the bed.
Jess sighs but smiles as he said "If it helps any I don't want me go either. I rather stay here and do something more enjoyable. For the both of us" his brown eyes darken slightly from the desire he felt for the woman he loved.
"Call in sick." Rory told him still holding unto him.
"Are you Rory Gilmore actually telling me to lie?" Jess asked with an amused grin.
"It's not so much as a lie as it is you being too sick to go to work because being away from me causing all sorts of terrible diseases." Rory told him.
Jess grinned "Oh well I wouldn't want to get that, but what would I get for staying?" he asked.
Rory grinned and turned around in his arm so they were face to face "other then staying healthy? You get this" she started a trail of kisses on his neck and moved towards his mouth "And this" and when she reached it they kissed passionately.
When they broke the kiss Jess looked at her love showing in those dark eyes of his. "You know if you keep doing that I may not be able to get out of bed which would include me making coffee for you."
"You wouldn't dare keep a Gilmore from her coffee" she said half joking half threatening.
Jess grinned "Well I can't very well make some if you keep me in bed. Not that I mind."
Rory pouted and let him go only to pull him back and give him a quick kiss on his lips "You make coffee and breakfast and I'll allow you to use your shower to get ready for work, after I'm done." she grinned then realized "Oh wait I don't have a fresh pair of clothes with me."
"You could borrow some of mine." Jess offered "but then how would I know if I would get them back?"
"Of course you wouldn't get them back." she said smiling "but I walk in public wearing your clothes. what will people think."
"You really care what they think?" Jess asked her then asked "Are you going somewhere?"
"I forgot to tell you, didn't I?" Rory sighted "I have to get back to Stars Hollow for the surprise engagement party I'm throwing for Lane and Zach. Oh and you're coming too."
Jess raised his eyebrows surprised "Lane is marrying Zach?" he asked.
"Yes, see that's what you get for not keeping in touch with our nice little town with-" Jess finished her sentence "all its insane festivals and meetings."
"We really missed you at the arbiter tree planting festival this year." she told him.
"Oh, I'll bet. Taylor probably threw a festival when I left town." Jess told her.
"Not so much a festival and more a party." Rory informed him. "But just think of the look on Taylor's face when you show up at Lane and Zach's engagement party."
"Taylor is going to be there, and Mrs. Kim probably as well. It's going to be a real party then." Jess said sarcastically.
Ignoring his sarcasm "Good then you'll be there." she told him.
Jess sighted "Fine." that response earned him a smile and a another kiss.
After breakfast Jess and Rory said goodbye and Rory went to Stars Hollow to make final arrangements for the party smiling happy as she did because Jess promised to show up later in Stars Hollow after some work.
At home Rory updated her mother on her talk with Jess and their plans, Lorelai although she still didn't like Jess much was happy for her because it had been a while since she saw her daughter glowing like she was now. Rory had changed into some of her clothes from home and out of Jess's clothes which then hid under her pillow not ready to part with them just yet, they may have been washed before she wore them but they still had the faint smell of him in them.
The doorbell rung late in the afternoon and Rory on the phone talking to Mrs. Kim who insisted to have some part in the engagement party she was throwing "Of course" she said on the phone as she opened the door "Yes I took care...of that." she said the last bit as she saw Jess standing there in the doorway. Her face broke out in a smile as she said "I got to go Mrs. Kim." "Yes I will. Bye" Rory said hanging up and then let her eyes go over Jess who was dressed very nicely "It's going to be hard to keep miss Patty away from you when she sees you." she said to him.
"Well then maybe we should reconsider going and just stay in" Jess told her.
"I planned everything, Lane is my best friend. I have to go." Rory told him "and because I do, you do. I'll just have to make sure Miss Patty knows your spoken for." she told him.
"And how are you planning to do that?" he asked her and Rory who then grinned and said "I've got a few ideas." she leaned in and kissed him.
