When Jess arrived at Yale, he checked his cell phone for the location Rory had text him to meet her.

"Hey baby." Jess said as he took Libby out of the car after having set up her stroller.

It was a nice day for late August, Jess made sure Libby had her hat on to keep the sun out of her eyes and tucked a blanket into the diaper bag in case it got cooler. He put the diaper bag on the back of the stroller after strapping Libby in.

"Let's go find and find your mother." He told Libby after he made sure the car was locked.

He pushed the stroller towards the bench where he had arranged to meet Rory.

When he reached the bench he made sure Libby wasn't facing the sun, and locked the brake so the stroller wouldn't move and sat down.

"So Lib where were we?" Jess inquired as he pulled a book from the diaper bag. He found his place and picked up reading Thomas More's Utopia to Libby.

"Isn't she adorable?" A group of girls came over to look at Libby.

Jess stopped reading and looked up.

"Is she yours?" One of the girls asked Jess.

"Yes." Jess replied.

"What's her name?" They guessed that she was a girl from the fact that she was wearing pink.

"Libby." Jess stated.

"And you're reading Utopia to her?" Another asked.

"She likes books." Jess shrugged.

"How old?"

"A little over six months."

"She's adorable."

"Thank you." Jess didn't know what else to say.

"Do you go to school here?" One of them asked.

"No, we just thought it was a good day for a visit to an educational institution."

"You want her to go to Yale?"

"She can go to school where she likes, but she needs to go to pre-school first." Jess stated.

"Cute baby." Another voice said. "I like the pink."

"Her grandmother insists on buying it for her." Jess replied.

"Grandmother's can be like that." She agreed.

"Especially her grandmother."

"So can I hold her?" She inquired.

"You'll have to see how Libby feels about that." Jess told her.

The woman unstrapped Libby and picked her up.

"She seems to like you." Jess commented.

"That's good isn't it honey." Rory leant over and gave Jess a quick kiss. "Sorry I'm late."

"Don't worry we didn't notice." Jess replied.

The girls excused themselves and left.

"So has she been behaving herself?" Rory asked checking Libby over.

"Other than pulling Miss Patty's earring."

"Miss Patty?" Rory questioned as she sat down settling Libby on her knee.

"The diner got busy and Libby was awake so Miss Patty watched her while I took orders."

"That was nice of her."

"How was class?" Jess inquired.

"Good." Rory replied. "It seems strange since I haven't been in school in 9 months."

"You'll get back into it." Jess told her.

"Hopefully my class this afternoon will be interesting."

"You'll do great." Jess assured her.

"I hope so." Rory paused. "So you found some new friends."

"Libby and I were just sat here reading Utopia minding our own business when they came over."

"Right." Rory smiled.

"Although it does seem that babies are a good way of picking up women."

"As long as you throw them back before you do anything." Rory told him. "We'll be fine."

"I have my hands full with the two of you."

"Good."

Jess gave her a kiss.

"So you invited us to lunch?" Jess said.

"The dinning hall I still have credit from last semester."

"Lead on." Jess said, he knew Rory would carry Libby so he picked up the books she had dropped on the bench before picking Libby up and dropped them into the stroller.
