I do not own Gilmore Girls. If I did, I couldn't even describe to you the changes I might make. Including giving Milo a long term contract:)

.Thanks for overwhelming amount of reviews! I was not expecting so much so here's another chapter.


"I'll go after him," Leah sighed as she walked out of the diner.

"Why'd you come here dad?" she asked as she saw her father get into the limo.

"I just thought I'd surprise you. I don't get to see you guys a lot," Logan said.

"Oh," was all Leah said. "I better find Holden. I'll see you around, Dad."

"I love you Leah. You know that right?" Logan said in a tired voice.

"Yeah," she replied. She then proceeded to walk toward where she knew she would find her brother, the old bridge. It was where they went when they wanted to get away from the world. Leah couldn't explain why the bridge was a place of comfort to them but it was. There was something about it, it was special. As Leah reached the bridge, she saw her brother sitting down, swinging his legs, and reading a book in the little light there was as the sun was setting.

"Hey," she said as she took a seat next to him. He didn't look up, he just continued to read.

"How did you know I was here," he said, still reading.

"I am your twin you know. There's a special bond," she said laughing.

"But I am older," Holden argued playfully and he finally looked up.

"Yeah," Leah rolled her eyes, "by five minutes."

Holden laughed. There was a moment of silence but it wasn't uncomfortable.

"Why'd you do that Holden?" Leah said softly.

"I was just mad," he answered. "Why does he have to just show up like this?"

"He's just trying to have a better relationship with us," Leah replied. Holden sighed.

"Maybe we should just drop this," he said and Leah nodded. She knew when Holden didn't want to do something and talking about Dad was not something he wanted to do right now.

"What are you reading," she questioned. She leaned forward to look at the cover of the book.

"The Fountainhead," he replied calmly.

"Ugh, she's a political nut," Leah said in disgust.

Holden laughed again. "Maybe we should go home. It's getting cold outside," he said.

"No, it's not!" Leah laughed.

"Let's go home anyway, I'm dying for a Pop Tart," he suggested.

"Agreed," she said and they left the bridge.

GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Jess Mariano had no idea why he was driving past the Welcome to Star Hollow sign. He couldn't explain why his feet had caused him to park in the main square. He just followed along; unaware of why he was standing in front of a gazebo he hadn't seen in 17 years.

The last time he had seen it had had a huge sign over it proclaiming the words "Congratulations Luke and Lorelai!" Jess stared up at the gazebo almost wishing the sign was there. Because if it was there, that would mean he was 23 again and he would be dancing with Rory in the very spot that he stood.

Rory must have been the reason Jess had come to Stars Hollow again. Or maybe it was Leah Huntzberger, the girl with the incredible resemblance to Rory. But they couldn't possibly be related, Jess thought. Or could they? Maybe Rory had gotten married. Jess knew she would have settled down after all these years. Yes, Rory probably had a husband and two children while Jess was 40 and single and still slightly in love with a girl he dated in high school.

"Jess!" a female voice shouted. Jess couldn't see very well in the dark but he could see very well when the girl collided with him. He was nearly knocked over and he stared at the girl with the long, frazzled, blonde hair holding him in a bear hug.

"Dee, is that you?" Jess questioned. The girl let go and Jess recognized that it was in fact Doula, his little sister.

"Oh big brother I haven't seen you in ages. What are you doing here?" Dee asked.

"Just in the neighborhood," Jess shrugged.

"You're so silly," Dee giggled.

"That I am," Jess replied. "Where are Mom and TJ?"

"They went back to the Renaissance fair. You know how much they love doing that. I'm staying with Uncle Luke, Aunt Lorelai and Will," Dee answered.

"I haven't seen them in a while," Jess said sadly. "Where do they live?"

"The Old Twickham House over there," she pointed to a house near the diner. "And Rory, Holden, and Leah live in the house that Lorelai and Rory used to live in," she added.

Jess stared at her. He was shocked. "Did you say Holden and Leah?"

"Yeah, didn't you know they were her kids?" Dee said oblivious to the shock on Jess's face.

"No, I haven't spoken to them in a while," Jess said. He changed the subject quickly. "How's your senior year?"

"It's good I guess. But it still sucks that I'm a year older than everyone else. I should be in college by now," she complained.

"I don't know why Mom didn't let you go to kindergarten at 5 like everyone else," Jess said.

"I know! She just had to wait another year!" Dee said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. But she went back to her happy self again and asked, "Are you coming for Christmas this year? I know you had to go on all those book signings and tours and stuff but you came last year."

"I'll try not to miss it," Jess promised. "I mean, it was pretty great when TJ passed out on the tree. The eggnog gets him every time."

Dee laughed her high pitched, infectious laughter and Jess smiled. He had really missed his sister and his family. He did see his mother and TJ as much as he could but it was hard, especially since he had been living in California for the past 15 years.

"It's getting late. I should go home," Dee said after she had controlled her laughter.

"Yeah, I need to go," Jess lied. He had no where to go, no where to be and that thought saddened him greatly.
