Three weeks. It had been three weeks since Jess had left. Three weeks since their kiss, and three weeks since Rory had actually been able to put together a full sentence. Rory sat at the table across from her mom with her cup of coffee. It all looked normal; all the normal characteristics were there. The coffee, the table, the Lorelai but it felt strange and unfamiliar. Rory sighed.

Lorelai looked over at Rory and gave her the well deserved death glare. "Oh my god, if I hear you sigh on more time I will sew your mouth shut."

"Oh I'm sorry that my emotions are bothering you. Would you like me to leave the room?" Rory said grumpily

"Hun, I'm so sorry but you have to stop this. You have been sitting around here for 3 weeks. You got to let this go. He's gone Rory."

Rory rolled her eyes, "Mom, you make it sound like he's dead."

"Well, if I had my choice..."

"Mom!" Rory exclaimed with wide eyes

"I'm not serious. I wouldn't want anybody to die, even that little punk."

"You're the one who said he's changed."

"I know kid and he has. He's different now."

"Tell me about it. Alright look, I haven't seen or talked to Lane in a while. I think I'm going to stop by her place."

"Alright. Well I have to leave for work soon anyways so I will see you tonight."

"Yup. Bye mom."

Rory gripped the steering wheel tightly. She didn't know if she trusted herself to loosen her grip, she would probably let go and crash into something while lost in some crazy thought about Jess. He was the only thing on her mind these days. As she pulled up to Lane's place, she wondered how one weekend had changed everything.

Rory gave a knock on the door and it opened quickly. Lane looked pleasantly surprised. "Oh my god! Rory!" she gave her a tight hug.

Rory laughed and returned the hug, "Hey! Is it okay if we talk? I have a lot to tell you."

"Of course! Come in, come in. Oh and Zach and Brian are trying to sneak into the soup kitchen so they will be gone for a while, especially if they get arrested."

"Good because this may take a while. Last time I talked to you was before Jess had came for the weekend right?"

"Oh I totally forgot about that! That was weeks ago weren't it?"

"Yeah it was. Well he showed up, with his girlfriend."

"Jess has a girlfriend? Wow."

"Oh there's more. It was really horrible at first, very weird and uncomfortable. So we both decided to start fresh. I spend most of Saturday with him and I just was having a great time."

"Wow."

"Still more. I found this letter in his car; it had my name on it. I was tempted to open it but my stupid conscience wouldn't let me. So on Sunday, I confronted him about the letter and he wouldn't say anything about it! Then he kissed me."

"He kissed you? Why am I just now finding out about this?"

"I'm so sorry Lane! I just kind of needed a few weeks to think." Rory rolled her eyes at herself, "A lot of good the thinking has done because I still have no clue how I feel. I keep going back and forth between liking him and hating him."

"Wow. I'm sorry that's all I keep saying but its just all so, wow."

"I need your help Lane! I think… I think I might have feelings for him but like I said already I don't know!"

"Okay, well maybe its not that you have feelings for him again. He left Rory; it defiantly was not a mutual agreement. You both didn't agree to break up."

"What are you getting at?" Rory asked even though she knew exactly where Lane was taking this.

"Maybe you never truly got over him. You just pretending like you did and sometimes, when you pretend long enough you convince yourself it's the truth."

Rory nodded, "Ever consider a career as a physiologist? You would be really good at it."

Lane smiled, "I'll pass on that one. Seriously though Rory, you get what I'm saying don't you?"

"Yeah I do its just how do I know if I have been pretending or not? How do I know if I never got over him?"

"What am I? God? I don't have all the answers Gilmore."

Rory laughed, "I'll take whatever you got!"

"Fine. What did you feel when he kissed you?"

Rory thought about it for a while. What did she feel when he kissed her? Rory took a deep breath, "It happened too fast to say. I mean, it was like a three second kiss."

"Enough with my advice. What do you think?"

Rory sighed, "I think, I don't want to have feelings for him but..."

"But you do?"

Rory bit down on her lip and closed her eyes, "Yeah. I do."
