AN: Thank you all for your beautiful reviews… Also thanks for your ideas they have given me some inspiration

As for your question, crazynakedsexpart69, no Luke and Lorelai are not dating…I'm in the third season time frame…but maybe as my story continues? It's an idea I have been toying with. Well I hope you all enjoy this chapter!


Rory was walking backwards being lead by Jess who at the moment was basically devouring her neck. She was so caught up she just let him take the lead. She found herself being slowly laid down onto her back. Jess crawled on top of her, and stopped kissing her. They made eye contact and just stared at each other, breathing heavily. Rory finally broke her eyes away to find out where she was. She looked over to her dresser, where in the mirror she could see the reflection of herself on her bed, with Jess staring at her face. Deciding she liked what she saw she looked back to Jess and kissed him hard.

His hand found its way to the edge of her shirt and pushed it up until he felt the under wire of her bra. He looked to try to make eye contact, finding her eyes shut. He paused for a minute and she opened her eyes. He put his mouth next to her ear and breathed out, "Can I?"

She nodded her head and he grabbed her shirt again to take it off of her. He ran his hands down her sides and started kissing her right next to the material of her bra. He looked back up to her, and they stared intently into each others eyes as he undid her belt buckle and unzipped her jeans. He then started to push her jeans down to her knees.

She shut her eyes and let him slide her jeans off of her legs. When she felt him crawl up on top of her again, she opened her eyes. He was hovering over her, with his eyes finally closed. She let her hands wander down his stomach to his jeans. She started to unzip his jeans when his hand pulled hers away.

Rory looked back up at him, confused. "Are you sure?" She looked away to consider her answer. Then she looked back at him and nodded. He let her hand go and she pulled his pants down. She grabbed his shirt and started to pull it off. The door slowly opened revealing Lorelai standing next to Luke who then dropped his tool box completely shocked.


Hot tears were rapidly rolling down her face as she pulled her shirt back on. She could hear him silently pulling his jeans on, on the other side of the room. She sniffled and picked up her jeans to put them back on.

"Rory?" Lorelai asked, very shocked.

Rory looked over at her, then to Luke, and moved quickly behind Jess who was sitting on the edge of her bed staring at the carpet.

"I thought you said you didn't know if you were ready just the other day when we talked about this." Lorelai said, her voice cracking. Rory didn't looked up when she started to answer.

"I didn't think I was then, but we were just here and I looked in the mirror and its what I wanted to happen. It wasn't his fault…it was my decision. Please don't be mad at him." She swallowed hard to keep from crying.

"Get dressed." Lorelai said harshly, before slamming the door.

He walked over to her and turned her around to face him. She kept looking down, pulling her zipper up and buttoning her jeans. He put his hand under her chin and gently pulled her face to look at him. She looked up, and bit her lip trying to prevent a sob from getting out. It didn't work out as well as she wanted it to, and Jess just hugged her as tight as he could while she sobbed into his chest.

Lorelai was sitting at the kitchen table staring off into space; Luke was in the living room sitting on the couch. The only thing that could be heard was Rory's sobbing. Lorelai quietly got up and went to Rory's door, pressing her ear against it. She could now hear Jess talking.

"Rory, it's going to be fine. You and your mom are going to talk it out, just like you do everything else. She loves you more than anything and will listen to you. Trust me, she may hate me…but I do know a little bit of something about her. If you are crying because you are embarrassed, don't be. If you were gross then you could be embarrassed, but you're beautiful and Luke will probably force the mental image of us together out of his head so far that he'll forget about the whole thing." Jess said in attempt to get her to calm down. She just started crying harder.

Lorelai faintly heard Jess sigh. She knocked on the door. "Rory, can I come in?" She asked hopefully. She heard footsteps come to the door and then it opened. Jess was standing there with a look of defeat on his face while Rory was standing by her dresser. Lorelai looked over to Rory. Her eyes were bloodshot and her face was red. She looked back to Jess and pulled him into the kitchen, while shutting the door.

Rory quickly walked over and pressed her hear against the door to hear what was going on. She could hear Lorelai talking.

"I'm going to talk to her…you should take Luke home, and probably try to talk to him about what happened."

"Kay," Jess had decided that the floor was good scenery.

"Jess look at me." She said a little annoyed. He glanced up at her. She sighed heavily, "I don't hate you… Now go home."

Jess nodded and walked into the living room. Lorelai opened Rory's door, watching him walk away.

When she looked into Rory's room she saw Rory standing there, staring at her with tears building up again in her eyes.

"Oh, kid." Lorelai said and outstretched her arms. Rory quickly walked into her mothers embrace.

Luke was walking ahead of Jess, while Jess watched Rory crying with her mother holding her tightly. Then the guilt set in his stomach…This was his fault.


Lorelai was sitting on Rory's bed watching her sleep. They had talked everything out…surprise, surprise…Rory was ready to have sex with Jess.

Rory had finally calmed down and they were sitting on her bed. Lorelai started,

"So how did this happen?"

"You were at Luke's and Jess came over. He asked if we could hang out, and obviously I was okay with that. We just started kissing in the foyer and the next thing I knew he was setting me down on my bed."

"So basically it was his intentions to bring you into the bedroom?" Lorelai asked, getting mad.

"No, I don't think so. It just happened that way."

"He had to have known where he was taking you."

"Maybe he didn't do it on purpose. Or maybe he did because he just wanted to hang in my room."

"Please, he knew exactly what he was doing." Lorelai said, fuming.

"Mom, really I don't think he would be so forward. We were so caught up in each other I didn't even realize we were moving." Rory said worried.

Lorelai paused for a minute, and calmed down. "Okay. Maybe you're right."

"Thank you."

"You haven't…though…right?"

"No." Rory said quietly.

"And you think it will happen soon?"

"Please don't be upset, but I think so, yeah. I really love him." Rory said.

"I know."

"And he really loves me too."

Lorelai swallowed. "I know." Damn the truth.

Her baby was growing up and there was not much she could do about it.


Luke and Jess hadn't said anything to each other yet. Jess was sitting on the couch staring at his red bull can. Luke was sitting next to him, staring at his orange juice. Jess looked over at him and opened his mouth to say something, then changed his mind and went back to staring at his red bull. Luke looked over to him and started,

"So…want a beer?"

Jess looked over at him and desperately said, "Please." Luke got up and looked in the fridge. He grabbed two beers.

Two hours later

He was laughing so hard, tears were forming in his eyes.

"I can't...believe...that, Lorelai and I….walked in…on you…and Rory…getting ready to have sex!" Luke said while laughing hysterically.

Jess, who was laughing equally as hard started, "Did you…see…her face!" He hunched over laughing so hard, he fell off the couch, and landed on his butt on the floor between the coffee table and the couch. They started laughing harder.


The next morning, Jess woke up with a major headache, staring at wood. He sat up a little bit, realizing he was on the floor. He looked to his side, to see Luke asleep on the couch. He sat up, and winced.

He went into the kitchen area and grabbed the aspirin and a bottle of water out of the fridge.

After taking the pills, he walked to his side of the apartment and sat on his bed. He pulled the drawer in his nightstand open and looked inside.

There was a book he was looking for and a picture of Rory, a pack of old cigarettes, some spare change, and in the back a small box of condoms. He looked at the picture of Rory, then back to the box. He sighed.


Rory woke up and felt something heavy on her legs. She looked down to find Lorelai lying on her legs. She carefully slid out of her bed, and went to the kitchen. She looked at the coffee pot and turned it on. She put some pop tarts in the toaster. It had been three days since her graduation, and it will only be four more until she leaves for Europe.

She was going to miss Jess…

Oh, Jess.

She was ready. She was ready. She was ready. She was ready. She smiled. Suddenly she decided that she doesn't believe in delayed gratification anymore. She wanted him, and she wanted him bad. She looked over to her doorway to see Lorelai standing there.

"Mom?"

"mhmmph?"

"I want Jess."

Lorelai suddenly became very awake, "What?"

"Soon."
