A/N- Hi! Sorry for the really short chapter. I hope you enjoy this, please read and review. I do not own Gilmore Girls, and I desperately need to go to sleep and get back to the things I own.
Chapter 79
"So should we…"
"Do we need to?"
"Jess."
"Rory, we've wanted this since we first saw each other," Jess answered definitively, holding her gaze as he held her close next to him, "And now it's happened. Things have been happening with us for a while now. We both know where this is going, what this is. That this wasn't casual and I sure as hell hope it wasn't a one-time thing."
"It wasn't," Rory reassured him, grinning. He grinned back.
"Good," Jess smiled, "And in that case, do we need to?"
"Nope," Rory affirmed, her entire body relaxed into his, "All we need to do is figure out when and how to tell…people."
"Well this time I don't want it to be a secret, or to flaunt it," Jess began, smirking at the memory as Rory glared at him, "I just want it to be us."
"I agree," Rory nodded, "But don't you think we should tell Luke and my mom first?"
"Absolutely," Jess answered, "Why don't you go tell your Mom and I'll tell Luke?"
"We could do that," she begun slowly, "Or we can just tell them together. I'd think they're still…"
"We should probably call," Jess finished, taking out his phone and dialing Luke's number.
"Hello?"
"Luke?"
"Jess? Is everything okay there?" Luke asked quickly.
"Yeah, everything's fine," Jess answered, "But, Rory and I have something we want to tell you and Lorelai. Is there a good time today?"
"Sometime in the next few hours, we'll come by," Luke answered, "And you can tell us then."
"Alright," Jess nodded, "By the way, congratulations on the engagement."
"Thanks," Luke smiled, "And congratulations on your not-yet-announced announcement."
"Thanks," Jess replied, a grin spreading across his face. He hung up.
"What was…"
Jess cut Rory off with another deep, soft, tender kiss. When he finally pulled away, Rory inhaled sharply. He raised his eyebrows and smirked.
"So that was…"
"You're not supposed to."
And with that, Rory immediately wrapped her arms around him again and pulled him closer to her, ready to enjoy a little more relaxation before they had to return to reality.
Meanwhile, at the Dragonfly, Luke was trying to get out of bed himself.
"Luuuuke," Lorelai whined, pouting her lips as she cocked her head to the side ever-so-slightly, "Just a little longer. Ooh…"
"Dirty! Yes, I know," Luke grumbled, trying to ignore her. She always won, but right now he needed to get himself together so that they could go see Jess and Rory. "Look, Lorelai, that was Jess, and he and Rory need to talk to us. They want us to come over to the diner."
"Is everything okay?" Lorelai asked quickly, sitting up and pulling the sheet over herself.
"Everything's fine," Luke answered, "Actually, I would bet better than fine. Maybe even amazing, incredible. I really couldn't tell you but that's why we're going over there."
"Wait a minute," Lorelai said, looking at Luke suspiciously, "Did he…she…they…"
"It's their news to tell," Luke answered gruffly. Lorelai squeled.
"Luke! Why aren't you excited?"
"Because technically nothing has happened yet to get excited about."Jake answered.
