He nodded, "Wait till you see the inside." Jess knocked hard on the door. He looked over at Tessa who was still memorized by the exterior view of Luke's. Jess smiled as her long, dirty Blonde hair blew in the warm summer wind. The door opened and Jess turned his attention to Luke.
"Luke!"
Luke smiled, "Jess hey!" He looked over Jess's shoulder to see a young women looking all around with amazement. "Is this the friend you brought? The journalist?"
Jess nodded and grabbed Tessa's arm to pull her over to Luke, "Ya, Luke this is Tessa and Tessa this is Luke."
She smiled brightly, "Nice to meet you!" she extended her hand towards Luke. He shook it and she turned back to Jess, "Jess has told me a lot about his uncle Luke, you have no idea."
"I hope nothing bad though." Luke said laughing at his own lame joke.
Jess shrugged, "I might have slipped in a thing or two but overall you would be proud of my presentation of you." Jess looked at Tessa, "do you wanna see the inside of the diner?"
"I would love to!" Luke stepped aside as they made their way into the diner. She looked around and smiled, "I love this town already!" Tessa took a seat on one of the stools and Jess sat down in the stool next to her.
"Do you guys want anything to eat?" Luke asked politely standing behind the counter
Jess shook his head, "I'm good, how about you Tessa?"
"No thanks, I'm okay too."
There was an awkward silence as they all stood around not knowing what to do or say. Jess finally broke it, "Well, we need to go check into the Inn and get unpacked but we will come by for lunch later."
"Right, of course! Ya, you guys go get settled."
They walked over to the door to leave for the Inn. "It was nice meeting you!" Tessa said as Jess opened the door.
"You too"
Jess gave Luke a quick wave before they stepped out to the sidewalk. "I can't believe were going to stay in an Inn! That's so cool!"
Jess laughed and shook his head, "You're such a city girl!" She rolled her eyes with a smirk as they made their way towards the Inn.
Lorelai opened her eyes groggily. She sat up and yawned before glancing over at the clock. It read 8:15. Lorelai screamed and jumped out of bed. She had overslept! She was only supposed to take a small nap and now, it was a whole new day. Lorelai ran to get dressed and grabbed her papers before rushing out the door. Lorelai ran out to her car and hopped inside. She drove towards the inn and taped her fingers nervously on the wheel. She was more then late, she as late and hours behind on her work. She cursed herself. How could she just let herself oversleep like that? Lorelai pulled up to the inn and rushed inside.
She sat her papers down on the front counter. Michel glared at her, "You're late"
"Gee thanks, I had no idea." she went behind the front counter and put her head down.
Michel rolled his eyes, "Well I'm giving myself a half-hour break because I had to slave away for the past two hours while highly annoying little customers attacked me. How did you manage to miss my twenty phone calls?"
Lorelai lifted her head up, "You called me twenty times? You needed help that bad?"
"No, not really. It just killed me to think you were probably all tucked up in your little bed while I stood here getting my face chewed off."
Lorelai saw the front door of the Inn open and quickly sat up. Her jaw practically dropped open. Jess and Tessa walked in and Lorelai met his eyes. He saw her surprise and gave her a small smile, "Hey" he said
"Uh… hey! What are you doing here?" she asked politely
"Were going to stay here for the weekend. I get the feeling that Luke's might be a little cramped with two people."
"Oh" she took a deep breath, "Great, let me get you guys a room."
Jess nodded and walked up to the counter and Tessa followed behind. Lorelai quickly found them a room and handed Jess a key, "Room Seven." He smiled and they walked away towards the stairs. As soon as they were out of sight, Lorelai picked up her phone and dialed home to Rory.
"Hello?"
"Rory, Jess alert. Just walked into the inn and got a room!"
"What? Jess is here already? Wait... did you just say he's at the inn?"
"That would be correct sister. In a million years I would never think Jess would come into my inn and get a room for the weekend. I never thought those two would mix well ya know?"
"I hear you, was he alone?"
"No, actually he had a girl with him."
"Oh he did?" Rory felt something slightly shift inside.
"Yup, and they got one room!"
"Interesting" Rory said slightly above a whisper
"God Rory he has changed so much! It's like he's a new person. We actually had a short but normal conversation. He just didn't seem like the same leather jacket punk we have known, I think Jess has really grown up."
Rory nodded to herself, "So this change you mention, it's a good change?"
"I think so, Rory I found the cure to my stress! Just give me a dose of Jess-walking-into-my-inn everyday and Ill be happy as ever!"
"Your too funny mother!" Rory said rolling her eyes, "but thanks for the latest!"
"Any time! Well, I should get going since I'm currently 6 years behind on my work."
"Okay, talk to you later."
"Bye"
Rory hung up the phone and felt her heart beat speed up. The time had come. Jess has arrived.
-Two hour's later, Luke's Diner-
Rory walked into the crowded diner and took a seat at the counter. Luke walked up to her and smiled, "Rory, hey!"
"Hey, Ill just have a burger and fries." Rory wanted to be in and out of there as quick as possible. Luke nodded and went over to take the next customers order when he heard the bell above his door.
Luke stopped moving and Rory knew who it was. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She turned her head to make sure she was right and his eyes were already focused on her. She had to turn around now. Rory turned around all the way and said quietly, "Jess."
Jess didn't say anything for a few moments. He just stared at her with slight shock. He had promised himself to avoid her at all costs this weekend and here he was, only a few hours into his first day and he already ran into her. Jess smooth his hair nervously, "Hi."
Tessa threw Jess a puzzled look and he sat up a little straighter, "Uh, Tessa this is Rory." She smiled and gave Rory and little wave. "Rory, this is Tessa," he looked down at the ground then back up at Rory, "my girlfriend."
A/N: So, thats the big shocker in case your wondering. So, its not HUGE but I think its a big surprise. You guys gotta remember that Rory and Jess are around twenty years old now so picture the Jess from season 6 when you read this. Now, for those wondering why Jess would just come to Stars Hollow like that then, theres your reason. His girlfriend wanted to go to write her article so, he went with her. Short chapter sorry! I just wanted to get it up by today but Ill try to make the other chapters longer.
Thanks to all who review! Not joking when I say there what keep me going because, its the truth. Thanks to all of you :)
Tell me what you thought and hoped you like this story so far!
