-1A/N: Chapter 3, yay!

For SassyCassie08 who said I needed longer chapters, lol.

Rory could feel Jess' eyes on her and suddenly felt horrible. She looked up at him with a nervous smile and walked out into the living room.

"What do you want, Logan?"

"I can't call and talk to my girlfriend?", his words were slurred.

Rory scoffed, "I'm not your girlfriend anymore. We had this conversation the other day."

"Did we?"

'God he can be so, dense.', Rory thought.

"We did. I broke up with you, Logan. We're over."

"But why?"

Rory felt like she was talking to a three year old.

"I don't know, I think the fact you went and slept with an entire bridal party, may have been the reason."

"We weren't together anymore!", Logan yelled.

Rory laughed bitterly, "Telling Honor that we were broken up, doesn't make it so if I didn't know!"

"But you ran after Book boy, you should've known!"

"Jess.", Rory replied.

"What the hell are you talking about, Rory?"

"His name is Jess, not Book boy!"

"Whatever. I love you, Rory. You know I do. I'll forgive you for being so stupid, if you come home."

"Excuse me? I am not being stupid. Me being stupid was dropping out of Yale, stealing a boat and not talking to my mother for months!"

"You love me too! I know it. We can work through this if you just come home."

"I don't love you, Logan. Honestly, I don't think I ever did. No, I don't want to work through this. I'm tired of fighting with you. Home? That apartment was never my home." ,Rory spat angrily.

"Where are you, your mom's?", he asked ignoring her previous ramble.

"No, I'm in Philly."

"Why are you there?"

"Jess."

"You're cheating on me!", Logan exclaimed.

"I think you need to lay off the alcohol and go get a cup of coffee. Cheating on you would imply we're together, which we aren't, so I'm not cheating on you. Goodbye Logan. Have a nice life.", Rory screeched angrily.

She hung up the phone before he could say anything. She left her cell on the table and stood up. She anxiously made her way back into the bedroom. Rory opened the door and found Jess staring at the text of an open book. Hemingway, she guessed. She leaned against the door frame and just stared at him. Should she just walk in? Was he mad at her? I mean she did tell him Logan was out of the picture but with Logan's phone call, he didn't look out of the picture.

"So, is this a part of the pattern?", he asked, his voice strained.

His voice caught her off guard, "What?"

"Logan screws up, you break up. He calls with an "I love you" and you go running back to him."

"Not this time."

Jess looked her in the eye and knew she was telling the truth. She walked over slowly and crawled onto the bed. She laid down next to him and smiled as he laced her fingers with his. She pulled him down so they were face to face causing his book to crash to the floor.

"How'd you know?"

"The pattern?"

She nodded.

"I talk to Luke every once and a while."

"That's so sweet. So, what were you reading?", she asked gesturing to the floor.

"The Garden of Eden."

"Hemingway, of course.", Rory replied with a smile.

"Of course." ,Jess smirked.

"You know, I have to call my mom soon."

"Great.", He shot back sarcastically.

"Hey!", she said hitting him playfully.

"What? She doesn't exactly like me."

"She does too! In her eyes, you're a god compared to Logan."

"Really?"

"Really."

She leaned in and kissed him sweetly. The kiss got more heated and there was a replay of the night before.
