"Mommm!"
"You have no right to call me 'mom' any more. You woke me up on a Saturday at 6:55 why?"
Rory rolled her eyes and started to pack her bag up. "So that I can beat the early traffic."
"So that you can get in a car, and drive for half an hour just to spend another awful day with your grandparents"
Rory laughed and handed her mom the car keys. "Be nice. Or I won't let you stop at Luke's"
"Yes mom" Lorelai responded as she snatched the keys from her daughter's hands. "Now let's go!" The girls got in the car and made their first stop at Lukes. They walked in, to find only Kirk sitting at the counter, alone. Lorelai looked around the dinner, trying to find Luke. "He's in the back. Went to go get some ham"
"Thanks Kirk" Lorelai said, giving him a half smile. "LUKE! COFFEE FOR THE ADDICTED PLEASE!" She heard a grunt, and laughed. "I know you're back there! Come on before I send Rory behind the counter!" She heard nothing for a moment. Just as Rory was forced up, Luke's body came from the back. He gave Lorelai a deathly look. "So I'm not imagining it. Why in the hell are you here at 7 am?!" Luke asked, slightly confused.
"Day with Rory's grandparents" Lorelai said.
"No! Day with mom's parents!" Rory said, slightly annoyed. She took a gulp of the coffee placed in front of her and smiled. Lorelai did the same in a moment, and then looked over at Rory who was digging through her purse.
"Did you forget something Hun?"
"What? Oh, no." She sighed and pulled a small note out of her bag, "tells Jess to page me when he wakes up please?"
Luke nodded his head, and took the small piece of paper with Rory's pager number on it. He placed it on the counter, and filled up the Gilmores mugs.
"Oh my godsh! Lane!"
"Yes. It's completely true." She gave off a squeal, as Rory did the same.
"This is so exciting. More exciting than the phone call you got at five AM the day me and Jess got together!"
Lane let out a laugh, "Oh yeah. Mama was very confused on that" she laughed again and gave Rory a smile "he said, and I quote, 'you're such a great girlfriend Lane'" A Huge smile grew onto her face as she started jumping up and down.
"This is so cute!" Rory said with a smile.
Lane nodded, and bit her lip "alright. So enough with me and Dave. Whats up with you and Jess!?"
Rory smiled and grabbed Lane's hand, stopping her for a moment. "Well… I told him that I was ready, as you know, and he got a scholarship to any college in Connecticut where he can major in English" She gave Lane another smile, as they continued walking.
"AW! How cute! You're totally proud of him huh?"Rory nodded her head with confidence. "Sure am"
Lane gave her a quick look, before her mouth dropped. "Oh my god! RORY! YOU LOVE HIM DON'T YOU?"
Rory gave Lane a confused look, "who…what are you talking about?"
Lane nodded her head. "It's written all over your face…" She lowered her voice a tad. "You love Jess"
Rory was silent for a moment. "Oh my gosh…" She said, trying to contain her smile, "I never knew how good it felt to be in love" She let out a small laugh, yet a moment later that smile was replaced by a shocked face. She bit her lip, nervously and cursed under her breath while she listened to the familiar voice behind her. "I love you to Rory"
"NO! NO! NO!"
"NO what, you're not making any sense!"
"Of course I am! It's not happening like this!" Rory raised her voice a tad, and shook her head.
"What then, you weren't talking about me!?" Jess' voice sounded irritated, yet hurt. "Who were you talking about then? Your mom? Luke? Hell, maybe even Kirk!" She ran his hand through his hair, and forced himself not to look at her.
"No you smart ass. I was talking about you! I just didn't want you to find out by me confessing it to my best friend!" She shook her head, and looked down right as Jess turned to face her. "I wanted to tell you a way you remember. Something big, yet small… & now it's ruined"
Jess' face looked confused. "I still would have found out though? Why does it matter?"
"Because!" Rory said, "I feel like it's not special this way. You still heard it from me and all… but it's different. Coming out and saying 'guess what Jess? I love you' is completely different then telling your friend and having you accidently over hear it."
"Would you rather I forgot, and wait for you to tell me like you have it planned?" He asked, with slight sarcasm in his voice.
"No. it doesn't matter…." She calmed down a bit, and looked up to meet eyes with Jess. "big deal on how you found out, at least it didn't take you three weeks to say it back" She gave him a smile, trying to lighten the mood.
He smirked and walked over to her. "So then." He leaned in close as their lips met. She didn't pull away like he thought she would. Instead, she let the kiss deepen, she let the kiss become more than it ever had. Although, it was broken after a while. Rory rested her forehead on Jess' and smiled. She gave him another small kiss, and laughed. "We aren't going to become one of those cliché couples that argue over who hangs up first, and must say 'I love you' every time they breathe, right?"Jess cocked an eyebrow, and laughed. "Nope. We'll be the type the couple that argues over books and how Hemmingway is a genius, while Rynd is a political nut"
Rory laughed, "I like that."
Ooc: short, I know. But I just thought it was to long without an update.
