As they pulled up to the Gilmore house, Jess could have sworn he heard screams coming from inside. He looked over to Rory and Lorelai, to see if they expressed any type of emotion on their faces. Lorelai looked scared. She looked like for once, she wasn't hyped on coffee. Maybe it was the fact that her daughter was a nervous wreck, and there was nothing Lorelai could do about it. Rory turned and found Jess staring at her. She gave him a weak smile, and he put his arm around her waist.

"It'll go great. I Promise" He was about to pull her in for a kiss, when all of a sudden the front door opened. This maid of the week gave them a quick smile and waited for them to introduce themselves. Once they did, she let them in, took their coats, and showed them toward the living room. "Here goes nothing" Lorelai said as they sat down. Moments later Emily appeared. She gave a smile to Lorelai and Rory, and eyed Jess. "Hello, I'm Emily Gilmore" She said coldly.

"Jess Mariano, maim" Jess extended his hand and after a moment Emily shook it. She nodded toward the couch, signaling Jess to sit with the Gilmores.

"So," Emily said after a moment of awkward silence "Where do you attend school Jess?"

"Stars Hollow High" He said normally. Emily scoffed quietly, yet Jess heard it. Here it comes. The super fucking wonderful speech.

"Oh. Well do you know what college you will be going to next year?"

Jess sighed, and when Rory saw how tense he was looking, she soon changed the subject. "So, grandma, where did you say Grandpa was tonight?" Jess released the breath he was holding, and listened to the conversation the Gilmores were having.

When dinner started, the questions were back up. What college would Jess go to? What did he want to do with his life? What made him think he and Rory would last? Rory is going to be successful, you can't weigh her down. Jess felt ecstatic when dinner was finally over. Rory, Lorelai and he, stood up and said there good-byes. Emily made a shocking speech though, as she pulled Jess back and allowed Rory & Lorelai to walk towards the car.

"What makes you think you deserve Rory? You'll be a phase to her, just like Christopher was to Lorelai. You'll get her pregnant, and leave. You'll mess up her future, and no one will forgive you. You should just back away now. You had your month or so of fun. Back away before she goes down the wrong path. I suggest you break up with her now before she falls for you even more. Don't let this advice slide by you Jess. Goodbye"

Jess walked out, err, more like was pushed out, of the Gilmore house, and found his way back to the car. He had some thinking to do. He told Rory that the movie watching/not watching would be post-phoned tomorrow night.

"Yeah, sure. I have some work for the Franklin I have to finish anyway" She leaned into kiss him goodnight, but the kiss was shorter then she expected. And with that, he walked back to Lukes, and she walked back inside.

"Everything alright babe?"

"Yeah, Jess just said he was tired"

Lorelai nodded, as her daughter filled the spot on the couch next to her. "Dinner went well" Lorelai said, after a moment or two of awkward silence.

"It did" Rory said nodding her head "Grandma seemed to semi-like him."

"Well, he's no Harvard Graduate, but he is something. And the fact that he actually sat through a dinner with Emily Gilmore, which gives him some major strength"

Rory laughed. She nodded her head once again, and remained silent, looking at the blank TV screen

"What are you thinking?" Lorelai asked

"I don't know" Rory responded shrugging her shoulders. She looked over at the clock and got up. "I'm going to make a call, I'll be right back" Lorelai nodded and Rory walked over to her room with the phone in her hands. She dialed the simple number waiting for an answer. Yet, after a dozen rings or so, she placed the phone back on the cradle, kissed her mother goodnight and fell asleep. Whatever reason Jess was hiding from Rory, would be figured out tomorrow.

Jess played with the zipper on his jacket, staring into the blank water. If there was ever a time for a smoke, it would be now. But he knew that he had quit for Rory. Rory, whose grandmother hated him? She practically threatened him to break up with her. Jess laughed aloud. If Rory wanted a future with some rich boy, she would have the guts to break up with Jess, she wouldn't send her grandmother…would she? Jess looked into the water and sighed again. He turned around when he heard footsteps behind him. He looked up and smiled, hoping to see Rory. But when he caught a glimpse of who it was, that infamous smile on his face, turned into an annoyed frown.

A/n: I personally hate this chapter. I only like the Emily Jess conversation at the end. But Emily and Richard aren't that hard to write for. Could be the fact that I know how to be a betch like Emily. Lmao.

So. Review! Review! Tell me what you like, tell me what you hate, tell me who you want to see get pushed into a lake! Again, doctor sues much?
