Chapter 5
When Rory turned her head to see who was coming in the door she had fear running through her body. The man appeared and it was Jess "Rory what's wrong? Why are you crying?" he asked "my…m…m…mom w…wa…was here…I saw her it was all real" Rory cried. Jess walked over to Rory and held her "she was right there…" Rory pointed to the place where Lorelai once stood "Rory shhh….it's going to be ok" he said trying to calm her down. "I went to Starshollow today and saw Luke and he told me to come upstairs so I did then he told me that before my mom died she wanted him to tell me that she loved me very much and to give me this cheque for half a million dollars" she cried into his chest "Rory it's going to be ok…just calm down" Jess said trying to calm her down "Jess I can't clam down my mom died and I just realized it…I'm such a bad daughter I didn't even go to her funeral" she cried "Rory it's ok she knows you love her. She's watching you right now…do you love her?" he asked already knowing the answer "very much" "she knows that…she knows that you were upset before…she will always love you even if she's not here…she will always be in your heart" he said. For the rest of the night Jess held Rory while she cried herself to sleep
The next morning Rory woke up with red puffy eyes. "Are you doing better?" he asked "yea…thanks Jess" she said with a smile "I had this dream last night that Luke and my mom were married with a kid and me and you were engaged and everything was perfect…..you and Lorelai actually got along and it felt so real I felt her hug again" she said. "Rory I'm sorry about yesterday I went to far, I should have respected that" he said sadly "Yea…but it's ok I forgive you" "thanks" he said with a smile "Do you want to get some breakfast?" he asked "I would love to but I just want to stay here" she said sadly "ok….I'll be back" he says walking out the door.
15 minutes later Jess walks in with a ton of bags. "What's that?" she asked "you didn't want to go out to breakfast so I brought it to you" Jess said setting down the bags "aww Jess that's so sweet" she said looking through the bags. "mmmm this smells good" she said getting out the plates "Rory let me get that" he said taking the plates from her "thanks" she says walking to the table "Jess why are you doing all of this?" she asked "all of what?" "this….the breakfast, comforting me, taking care of me? Why? I don't really deserve this" she says tearing up "you do deserve it, I know that you were bad before and your life was going through a phase but you helped me when I went through this remember when we were 17 you changed me into what I am today…so you do deserve this…you deserve everything…you deserve a good man that will stand by you and you deserve a good life" he said while hugging her. Rory whispers into his ear "I want you to be the guy to make my life perfect" "I'm in, I'm all in" he whispers in her ear. Jess pulls away keeping his arm's around her waist and he stares into her deep blue eyes and brings his hands up to her face and passionately kisses her.
"I miss that" she confessed "I miss that to" and they both just stare into each others eyes "you want to eat? Cause I'm starving" she said with a smile "sure" he said while they sat down. "pancakes?" she asked him "yes please" he said as she passed him the pancakes.
After breakfast they cleaned up. Before Jess left for work he walked behind Rory and wrapped his arms around her and started kissing her neck…"Will I see you later?" he asked still kissing her neck "no I just want to be alone tonight…understand?" she asked "yea I understand…well I should get to work" he said. He stopped kissing her neck and he quickly kissed her cheek and left.
