It had been a long, tense evening. Rory was extremely happy to be back at home after the eventful Friday night dinner. Luke stopped the car in their drive way to let Lorelai and her out. Just as Rory thought she was free, her mom took her by surprise. "Would you and Jess like to join us for a movie?" Lorelai questioned Luke.

Luke looked at Jess, who nodded his yes, and then replied, "Sure, a movie sounds great."

Rory then became very upset, her own mom had betrayed her. She had explicity told Lorelai how she felt about being around Jess, yet Lorelai ignored her feelings. Once they were inside, Rory took the opportunity to talk to her mom. "Mom, can I talk to you for a minute in the kitchen."

"Sure," Lorelai said as she ran into to the kitchen. "What's up sweets?"

"Mom, I told you this morning how upset I was with Jess. Then, you make him go to Friday night dinner. And we both know how successful that turned out. Now, you are inviting him for a movie," Rory lashed out at her mother.

"Oh my God! You are so right. I'm being such a jerk. I should've asked first."

"Well.." Rory began.

"It's just that, I want to spend so much time with Luke. I love him so much Rory."

"I know you do mom. I just feel so uncomfortable around Jess at the moment."

"Yea, I know. I'll go tell them that movie night has been cancelled. I'll just go to Luke's and spend some time with him there."

"No, you don't have to. I guess I can bare a few more hours. Nothing can be as terrible as dinner tonight."

"See, this is why you are my favorite daughter."

"Mom! Do I have to keep reminding you that I 'm you're only daughter?"

Lorelai gave Rory a funny face. Then, the two went back to the living room.

"Is everything ok?" Luke asked.

"Perfect," Lorelai answered as she put in a movie. "I thought a classic movie would be good idea. So, I put in The Wizard of Oz."

Everybody nodded their head yes. Lorelai dimmed all the lights in the house, so her living room would look like a movie theater. Lorelai and Luke sat together on the couch, while Rory and Jess sat in opposite chairs. As soon as the previews began, Lorelai and Luke starting making out.

"Oh my God, I can't take this," Rory said. She then left the room and went to her bedroom. Jess left the room to follow her. He felt this was the perfect opportunity to patch things up with her. He entered her room not too long after she did. "Jess, get out!" Rory yelled at him.

"No! Rory we need to talk about this. We need to get past everything for Luke and your mom's sake. You're the maid of honor and I am the best man. Our paths are going to cross and we need to get along to make this wedding happen."

"Fine! You want to talk. You can start by telling me why you left me years ago," Rory blurted out. She was tired of all the mixed emotions she felt when she thought of Jess. She needed answers to all of her questions and now was the time to get them. "I loved you. And you just left. You broke my heart," she continued with tears beginning to swell in her eyes.

"I know. And I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I was angry at the world: at Luke, at school, and mostly myself. I loved you too. And I wanted to be there for and give you so much and I couldn't. I was mad at myself for not being able to and I left. When shit got rough, I left. I didn't know what else to do."

"You could've called or something."

"I should've but I didn't. Things wouldn't have worked out. We were young and passionate. It would've happened sooner or later. Besides, I thought you deserved more and someone else. I needed to better myself and I have. I'm finally the man that I want to be and love my life. I owe that all to you. I couldn't have did any of that without you," Jess confessed feeling guilty for all the pain he had caused Rory.

"I know. I'm glad I was able to be there for you."

"Me too. Now, can I ask you a question?"

"Yes," Rory said fully prepared for the question that was about to come.

"Why did you come to Philadelphia?"

"I wanted to see what you had become."

"Rory..."

"I know. I was upset at Logan. He had cheated on me and I didn't trust him. And he was out of town. So, I thought I would get revenge by visiting you and seeing if there were any sparks left between us." She paused for a moment. "And there was. Jess, you were my first true love. I mean there was Dean but I didn't love him like I did you. There is always a place for you in my heart."

"Fair enough," Jess said. He was finally satisfied with the answer she had given him. "So, now that we have cleared things up, can we act civilized and be friends again?"

"I suppose so," Rory answered with a small chuckle. "I have one more question for you though."

"Sure, what is it?"

"Did you ever fall in love again?"

"No," he said as he sighed. "There were a few girls I dated but none of them amounted to anything."

"Oh, sorry."

"Yea, I think I will always be in love with you. No one can take your place," he confessed.

She smiled to herself, quite pleased with the statement. Yet, Rory remained silent, not sure what else to say.
