CHAPTER SEVEN: The scary test

When Rory awoke, she once again-like the previous morning, ran to the bathroom and began throwing up. Jess quickly got up and went to her side. He held up her hair and rubbed her back softly. Once she finished she leaned into his chest.

"Rory, I really think that you should stay here today"

"No im fine, really"

"Rory, your not fine, this is the second morning in a row where you have gotten up and thrown up"

Rory stood up.

"I probably just have the bug. Its no big deal. I mean I seriously feel fine. Don't worry about it. Lets just get changed and meet Lane and Dave"

"Rory"

"I'm fine. Okay" Rory said getting frustrated.

Jess nodded and they both took showers, brushed their teeth, and got changed. They met Lane and Dave in the hallway and they all went outside to the SUV.

"Okay so at 2pm we get the SUV" Dave stated

The girls nodded. Jess walked up to Rory.

"I love you" he stated

"yea" she said with no emotion and started to walk to the passengers side. Jess quickly followed her.

"whats wrong?" he asked

"nothing im fine" she said as she put on a fake smile.

"I hate this Rory" Jess said getting angry

"hate what?" she asked with equal emotion

"your not talking to me anymore"

"im talking to you right now"

"Rory you know what I mean. Your not telling me anything anymore. You have been throwing up these past two days and you keep lying to me and telling me that your fine, but I know that your not. Why are you lying to me?"

"I am not lying to you" She yelled

"you know, were going to end up like we were two months ago"

"oh you mean when we were always fighting and broken up?"

"no" he said sarcastically

"You know, I think I made the wrong decision when I said yes to you" Rory said.

She took off her engagement ring and gave it back to him. Jess stood stunned. He never wanted that to happen. He began to run after her, but Lane stopped him.

"No, you two go. I think its time for girl time" Lane stated. Jess nodded and lane began running after Rory. "Rory wait up" Lane yelled.

Rory wiped away some tears and waited for Lane.

"Rory why did you just break things off with Jess?" Lane asked

"because if he really found out what was wrong, then he would break things off with me"

"what do you mean?"

"Lane I think im pregnant"

"and why would he break things off with you?"

"because he said that he doesn't want me pregnant"

"so he knows that you might be?"

"no, but the other day we didn't have any condoms and I thought 'what the hay, im not going to get pregnant' but Jess said that he didn't want to risk me getting pregnant. So if he found out that I might be pregnant, then he will break things off with me"

"come on" Lane stated. She started to pull her in the opposite direction of the hotel.

"Lane where are we going?" Rory asked

"we are getting you a pregnancy test. We have to be sure"

They crossed the road and walked down to the drug store. They bought a pregnancy test and went back to Rory and Jess's hotel room. Rory ran straight to the bathroom and took the test. She came out of the bathroom minutes later.

"Okay, now we only have five minutes to wait" Rory stated nervously.

"okay how about…we make some coffee" Lane suggested

"yea coffee's good" Rory smiled.

Lane turned on the coffee maker and they waited patiently for it to brew.

"I swear to god this thing is so slow" Rory complained

"Rory its almost done"

The coffee finished brewing, so they both got a mug and filled it. They guzzled it down; not paying attention to how awful it tasted. The timer in the bathroom went off and Rory nervously flinched.

"Rory its going to be okay" Lane soothed.

Rory nodded and went to the bathroom. She looked at the test and tears formed in her eyes. She let out a heavy sob and locked the bathroom door. She sat up against the door and put her head in her hands. Lane began banging on the door.

"Rory open up" Lane demanded

Rory didn't listen, she just continued crying. Lane finally gave up and resorted to the last thing she could think to do; call dave and Jess. She got out her cell phone and hit speed dial one for dave's cell phone. Dave picked up.

"Hey Lane" he said

"Dave, make a big U-turn and get back here. There is something wrong with Rory"

"Oh god. Ummm, we will be there in less than ten minutes"" Dave hung up the phone and made a big U-turn.

"Dave where are we going?" Jess asked

"there is something wrong with Rory"

"what! What is wrong!"

"I don't know, all I know is that we have to get back to the hotel"

"Oh God" jess said to himself.

They drove back to the hotel and went straight to Rory and jess's hotel room.

"Lane where is she?" Jess demanded. Lane pointed to the bathroom and he heard sobbing.

"Rory open up" Jess demanded.

"no" she cried.

"Rory please" he waited for a minute, but still no sign of her opening the door. "Lane do you have a bobby pin?"

Lane nodded and handed him a bobby pin from her hair. He shoved it in the key hole and jingled it around for a minute, then got the door open. He opened the door and saw rory huddled up in a ball in the corner.

"Rory whats wrong?" Jess asked as he kneeled in front of her.

"Jess just go away"

"no" he said sternly. He looked on the floor, near the counter and noticed a pregnancy box and test. He picked up the test and it had a plus sign in the little circle. "oh shit" he mumbled. Jess sat next to Rory and pulled her onto his lap. "So this is why you have been throwing up?" he asked. She nodded. "why didn't you tell me?"

"b-be-because you woul-d have broken u-up with m-m-e" she sobbed

"no I wouldn't, unless its another guys baby. And where did you get the idea, that I would break up with you?"

"you said the other day, that you didn't want to risk me getting pregnant"

"that doesn't mean that I would break up with you if it happened. Im still going to be here for you and our future baby. When I asked you to marry me, it was because I want to be there for you through thick and thin. Im not my father or yours"

"do you really mean that Jess?"

"one hundred percent"

Rory leaned her head on his shoulder.

"Im sorry" she whispered

Jess placed two fingers under her chin and tilted her head up. He looked into her eyes.

"its okay" he whispered back.

He looked down at his hands and removed the silver ring from his pinkie.

"Rory" he whispered again.

He looked up at her. He was nervous and she could see it in his eyes. She could see what he was thinking so she took the ring from his palm and put it back on her fourth finger on her left hand.

"I love you" she smiled

Jess looked back up at her and a smile of relief came across his lips. She slowly bent down until her lips came in contact with his.

"Jess do you want to elope?" Rory asked out of no where.

"what?" he asked

"elope. Do you want to it. Right now? We can go to one of those churches, ooo or we could go to Las Vegas and get married by elvis"

"why? I thought you always wanted one of those big gowns and a reception and everything"

"I do, but I don't. I really just want to marry you right now. I don't want a big wedding. I just want it to be me, you, lane, and dave"

"what about your mom and Luke?"

"do you not want to do it?"


A/N: Sorry i didnt update in awhile. i Kinda forgot about all of this. My fingers tend to hate me. i told you how i nearly cut off my finger, and just a couple of days ago, my friend thought that my hand was a volleyball and kicked it and sprained my index finger and nearly broke my middle finger. I was on the ground laughing and my whole gym class came up and asked why i was laughing and i told them it was because my friend just though that my hand was a volleyball and sprained my one finger and nearly broke my middle finger and they all asked me if i was on crack! it was an extremely fun day. well i hope you enjoy this chapter!
