Luke and Lorelai burst through apartment door lips locked, Lorelai was tugging Luke's shirt out of his pants.
"Ah jeez." Jess clamped a hand over his eyes. "I think I'm scarred for life."
"Jess!" Lorelai exclaimed.
"I forgot he was here." Luke muttered.
"If you stop what you were doing for a minute, I'll leave." Jess said grabbing his jacket and a book which he stuffed into his back pocket. "As you were." He added as he headed out the door.
"Jess where are you going?" Luke asked.
"To sleep on the boat." Jess replied.
"What boat?" Luke called after him.
"The one in Lorelai's garage."
"Jess, tell Rory I said you could sleep on the couch. If she's not awake the spare key is in the turtle, but this is a one time only use of it." Lorelai told him.
"Whatever. Go back to doing things I don't want to think about."

"Hey Jess." Rory said when she opened the door. "Mom and Luke come home?"
"I don't want to think about where she had her hands. She said I could sleep on the couch."
"Sure, come in." Rory let him in and then relocked the door. "So how do you feel about Dorothy?"
"If that's some kind of way of asking if I'm gay, I thought…"
"No. It's a way of asking if you like the Wizard of Oz, I'm watching it. And as for the other I have pretty reliable evidence that you're not."
"Good."
"Take a seat. Do you want some juice?"
"I'm fine." Jess replied.
"Then prepare to mock." Rory sat down next to him.
When the movie finished Rory yawned.
"I should get to bed." Rory stated. "I'll get you some blankets and pillows."
"Thank you."
"Are you going to sleep in that?" Rory asked when she returned.
"I'll take my shoes off, I'll be fine."
"Mom borrowed some sweatpants and a t-shirt from Luke, they'll probably be a little big but they'll be easier to sleep in than jeans." Rory suggested.
"Do I want to know why Lorelai is borrowing Luke's clothes?"
"Mom drove to the diner but she had to park further away and while she was walking from the car to the diner we had a torrential downpour she got soaked Luke gave her some dry clothes." Rory explained. "Any more information I don't want to know. They're clean I did laundry yesterday."
"Okay." Jess agreed.
"I'll just go and get them."

Rory was in the bathroom the next morning when the doorbell rang.
"Jess can you get that?" Rory yelled.
"Are you sure you want me to?" Jess inquired.
"Yes." Rory replied.
"Okay." Jess went and unlocked the door.
"Jess." Babette said.
"Good morning Babette and what can we do for you this time of the morning?" Jess asked.
"Is Lorelai here?" Babette inquired.
"No. She and Luke needed a little alone time last night so Lorelai said I could sleep on the couch here. You can check if you like."
"Is Rory here?"
"Bathroom." Jess replied. "Did you need something or are you just being nosy?"
"I wanted to borrow some milk Morey likes his cereal in the morning." Babette explained.
"Rory you got any milk Babette can borrow?"
"Fridge."
"Wait here." Jess told her and went and got an unopened carton of milk and returned and gave it to her. "Anything else? Sugar? Coffee? Because that's about all they have."
"Just the milk doll."
"Have a nice day." Jess shut the door. The fact that he spent the night there would be all over Stars Hallow by the time he got dressed and was out the front door.
