Chapter 4: the move


"WHAT!" asked Luke

"You heard me" Lorelei said looking at him now

So your telling me Jess and Rory are back together and in town?

Yep

"And they are spending the summer in new York and then they said they will see were it goes from there what ever the hell that means"

"Ok "Luke said in apparent shock

So thats it then theres nothing we can do. lorelai said snapping out of the shocked state now entering her panicking one, she stood up and grabbed her purse and stormed out the diner door leaving Luke in his shocked state.

Not a moment later Luck moved on to his panicked state, and ran out the door to catch up with lorelai who was not only feet away frame the diner door hunched over crying heavily.

"Hey what's the matter?" Luke asked only to answer his own question after getting no response, "they will be fine, jess wouldn't have come back and professed his love and asked her to move to New York if he did not think he could support her, he runs a book store now and doing well so the I heard the last time I talked to him…" Luke said now holding her close.

"how do you know he wont leave this time I don't think rory could handle another broken heart, her hurt her when he left after saying he loved her, how do you know?" lorelai said looking in Luke's green eyes.

"I now he wont this time I sure he means it he loves her more then we could ever know." Luke said watching her face for a reaction.

Lorelai saw in his eyes, honesty and uncertainty all at the same time. It was a bittersweet moment she wanted to protect Rory when she knew it was out of her control and she knew if she her go, Rory really loves Jess they well be truly happy together and lorelai knew that.

Luke helped her up at this they were looking each other In the eyes, lorelai saw something so very frailer about his eyes and at this moment in time she finely knew what it was, it was love, not just any kind of love but deep the kind of love you see in your spouse on your 40th wedding anniversary. Lorelai could not hold it in any more she leapt up and rapped her arms around his neck engulfing Luke in a very hard passionate kiss.

Later that day

"Jess, are we there yet?" Rory asked for the 10th time, pacifically trying to get a rise out him.

"Ok if I have to say no one more time I'm gunna explode it was cute the first 3 times but now its just annoying…" Jess said finely letting out his frustration. Jess looked over at Rory who was grinning ear to ear trying to hold in a laughing fit at her face Jess laughed out loud.

"I'm sorry its your driving face its so serious I thought I would lighten the mood." Rory said then started laughing again as Jess made a funny face by sticking out his tong at her then grinning.

"Is that less serious for you?" Jess joked he did not know what she did but he was a different around her, he was not the town bad boy or a screw up but somebody someone could have fun with.

"yep much better actually." Rory stated but couldn't help but wonder if this time would last if she would get scared and leave like he did 4 times before. She knew he would not leave this time he has truly changed but had she.

The ride went well they arrived in new York just after noon, Jess had decided to go to his favorite lunch place the hot dog stand he had taken Rory to the day she had skipped school to see him after the first time he ran away. Jess ordered 4 hot dogs with every thing, they ate in the car on the way to Jess' apartment.

Jess slid his key in to the lock on the door of suite 6B, as he pushed the door open Rory was surprised how neat and well kept Jess' place was.

They got all the stuff form the car and got settled then Rory called her mom to tell her they arrived safe and she had gotten settled in and stuff her mom was very submissive on the phone like she didn't want to hear any of it but was acting like she did.

"So you want to see were we are goin to work?" jess asked smiling.

"What?"
