"Mom, watch the kids we need five minutes." Rory grabbed Jess's wrist and dragged him upstairs to their room.

"If you wanted to get me alone…" Jess teased.

"Jess. Stop and explain."

"You promised your mother that we'd have a wedding for family since we eloped. Tomorrow is as good a day as any."

"You can't organise a wedding on twenty-four hours notice."

"Good thing I didn't." Jess replied.

"What?"

"Organise it on twenty-four hour notice." Jess sat down on the bed.

"What?" Rory was confused.

"Sookie is making a cake, food. The church is booked. Lane's band is hired. I invited your grandparents, your grandmother insisted on arranging the flowers. I invited all your friends, half the town."

"What?" Rory was a little stunned.

"Sookie and Lorelai helped, they've had experience at it."

"I…"

"You've been busy."

"What about Libby?" Rory asked.

"Lorelai bought her a dress and the twins have matching outfits." Jess replied. "Liz and TJ will be back some time tonight and then they are leaving again afterwards."

Rory lay out on the bed and sighed.

"I even called Christopher."

"You called Dad?" Rory questioned.

"He said he'd try and make it." Jess replied.

"You called Dad?" Rory repeated.

"I figured he'd want to be here. You can always as Luke to give you away if you want. The decision is up to you."

"Jess you can't just make unilateral decisions without talking to me first." Rory got up.

"Fine, I'll cancel everything. You'd better call Lane and Paris and tell them you don't need them to meet you at the dress shop where ever it is your mother told them to meet you at." Jess start to leave.

Rory put her hand on the door to stop him walking out.

"Jess."

"You've had things going on at school. I just thought it would be a nice surprise." Jess sighed. "I'll cancel everything."

"Jess, don't do that." Rory said. "You need to talk to me about things like thing."

"It kind of ruins the whole surprise element and you were the one who woke me up in the middle of the night last year and decided you wanted to get married." Jess reminded her.

"Jess…" Rory sighed.

"What do you want from me Rory?" Jess asked.

"Just consult me before making big decisions."

"Just do what you want." Jess told her. "I promise Libby I'd take her and the twins to feed the ducks. Excuse me." He left the room.

"Everything okay?" Lorelai asked when he came downstairs.

"Ask Rory." He replied.

Lorelai watched as he went and joined the twins and Libby where they were playing on the floor.

Lorelai walked upstairs. Rory was sat on the end of the bed crying when she opened the door.

"Hun?" Lorelai walked over and sat next to her. "Is everything okay?"

"I think I screwed things up."

"How did you screw things up?" Lorelai inquired.

"I yelled at him for trying to do something nice."

"He's worked really hard on this. He wanted to give you what you deserved to have the first time without having to worry about the details and it interfering with your school work."

"I know."

"It was all his idea, but he knew when to ask for help. He wanted it to be perfect for you. But he knew you'd want to choose your own dress."

"That's sweet."

"So is it going ahead or do I have to call Sookie and tell her that we don't need the chocolate fountain?"

"Chocolate fountain?" Rory questioned.

"Don't ask, you just marvel." Lorelai told her.

"Let's go shopping." Rory stated.
