A/N: Second post for all the nice feedback i've gotten.

"Rory. Rory." Lorelai said as she opened the door to the apartment the next morning.

She found Jess and Rory still asleep curled up in each others arms.

She started to back out.

"Lorelai?" Jess questioned waking up.

"Sorry I thought you'd be up already." She whispered.

"Isn't it too early for you on a weekend?" Jess asked yawning.

"Jess it's almost ten." Lorelai pointed out.

"I was supposed to help Luke this morning. Tell him I'll be down as I can get feeling back in my arm."

"Okay, I brought Rory's bag. I thought she might want clean clothes."

"I'm sure she'll appreciate it."

"I'm going back downstairs." Lorelai said. "Sorry I woke you up."

"Everything okay?" Luke asked when she came downstairs.

"They were still asleep." Lorelai said as she sat down at the counter. "Jess said to tell you that he'd been down when his arm wakes up."

"Do I want to ask?" Luke inquired.

"Rory's asleep on it." Lorelai explained. "They both have clothes on as far as I can tell."

"Jess and I worked out a policy, I don't ask and he doesn't tell me and vice versa."

"Good thing Rory and I don't have that policy."

"I have work to do." Luke said. "Have some coffee." He poured her a cup.

"Thank you. I'm taking a doughnut too."

"Help yourself but only one."

Jess came down ten minutes later.

"Rory getting up?" Lorelai asked.

"No she's still asleep." Jess replied. "She insisted she finish reading the book she was half way through. When I woke up at 2 she was asleep and she was about three pages away from the end of the book."

"That used to happen a lot." Lorelai recalled. "She wore out three library cards, and used to go through batteries for her torch like crazy."

"I have four."

"Four what?" Lorelai asked.

"Library cards. For when I couldn't afford to buy books or Liz wouldn't buy them for me."

"It's surprising how much you and Rory have in common."

"I should get some work done. I need my pay check."

Rory woke up an hour later; she found a note from Jess telling her that he had to go to work and that her mother had dropped off her bag.

After finishing her book, she got up and got dressed and headed downstairs.

"Sleeping beauty finally wakes." Lorelai joked.

"Funny." Rory sat down next to her.

"Hon, it's 11 o'clock."

"Luke can I get some coffee?" Rory asked.

"Decaf only." Luke told her and poured her a cup.

"Whatever."

"Are you hungry? I'll make you something."

"Sure."

"Jess she's inherited your one word answers." Lorelai told him as he walked by.

"Everything okay?" Jess inquired.

Rory pulled up the bottom of shirt to reveal that the top of her jeans were held together by a rubber band.

"They did up three days ago."

"Oh kid, nothing you currently own will do up in a few more weeks. Let's go to Hartford and go shopping this afternoon."

"Hartford?" Rory questioned as whether it was a good idea.

"In Hartford, Hertford and Hampshire hurricanes hardly ever happen." Lorelai quoted.

"Elocution lessons?" Jess guessed.

"My Fair Lady was on last week." Rory explained. "She thinks she's Audrey Hepburn."

"Pygmalion is better." Jess stated.

"What does pyg-whatsit have to do with Audrey Hepburn?" Lorelai inquired.

"Pygmalion is the George Bernard Shaw play that My Fair Lady is based on." Rory explained.

"We eat then we go shopping for a bigger pair of pants."

"Sure." Rory agreed.
