A Change Of Heart
Chapter 3
Rory, Jess, Lorelai, and Luke all discussed where Jess and Rory were going to live after they got married. They couldn't seem to find anything they liked or any arrangements that they all could agree on. Through all this discussion Luke had been thinking.
He got up and pulled Lorelai aside as Jess and Rory continued to throw out ideas to each other, too concentrated on their work to notice them leave.
"Lorelai, I have a plan."
"Oh, and what is this plan?" Lorelai looked at Luke confused.
"Well I think we should tell them about us, I will move in with you, and Jess and Rory can take the upstairs apartment. Its bigger now, since we expanded it, and I think it will solve a lot of the problems that we are dealing with." Luke got excited as he began to plan this out.
"Hmmm, I think you might be going somewhere Luke. Let's try it out."
"Hey kids!" Lorelai called to them tilted her head to motion for them to come over.
"Yeah mom?" Rory said walking hand in hand with Jess.
"We have a proposition for you guys." Lorelai said with a twinkle in her eye.
"Does this involve anything that will irritate me?" Jess eyed her cautiously.
"No no no! Listen, ok? First off I think now is the time to tell you guys this, but Luke and I are dating. We have been for a while now."
Luke turned bright red waiting for some kind of response that would embarrass him.
"Mom, I think we know that." Rory said giggling at her mother's naivity.
"Yeah Luke, it is pretty obvious. I mean I can tell and I haven't even been around here a lot since I left." Jess tried not to sound amused at how oblivious they were.
"Oh, ok." Luke embarrassingly replied rubbing the back of his neck. "Anyway, we have a plan."
Rory looked at Jess curiously and Jess just shrugged.
"Ok?" They said in unison.
"Well you know we expanded the apartment upstairs. There are two more rooms, a bathroom and the diner is right here so food wouldn't be an issue. I want you guys to take it. I will move in with Lorelai and everything works out perfectly."
Jess glanced at Rory to see what her expression was and noticed that Rory was looking at him as if asking for permission to agree. Jess nodded at Rory smiling and Rory squealed with delight as she jumped and hugged Jess.
"Um, is that a yes or a no?" Lorelai asked a little annoyed.
"YES YES!! Thank you so much Luke!!" Rory exclaimed running to Luke and giving him a big hug.
"Thanks, uncle Luke. We appreciate it really. We will make up for anything you need us to." Jess replied obvious emotion in his voice.
"No, I don't want you to repay or make up for anything. Consider this my wedding gift." Luke said winking at Rory.

Months of planning had gone by and the wedding day was finally here. Rory was excited but also so nervous. She was standing in her room looking at the dress she would be walking down the aisle in.
"Rory!" Lorelai called, "Rory are you almost ready?! I need to do your hair and make up!" Lorelai walked in seeing Rory just sitting there looking at the dress.
"Sweetie, are you ok?"
"Huh? Oh yeah, just a little nervous that's all." Rory said smiling at her mom.
"Are you sure that's all that is bothering you?"
"Yeah mom. I just can't believe it's really happening. Today. I mean we have been planning this for months and it still hasn't hit me yet." Rory chuckled softly. "Mom, I think the thing that is really making me nervous is tonight."
"Tonight? What do you mean tonight?" Lorelai cocked her head.
"You know…TONIGHT" Rory tried hinting to her mom knowing that her mom must be taking much pleasure in making her embarrassed.
"Oh, TONIGHT. As if in, the mission? The final task? The journey?" Lorelai teased.
"MOM! Don't embarrass me! And yes I am talking about that! It's just that I know that Jess is experienced and I'm not. I'm just worried of what its going to be like." Rory's eyes began watering as she spilled her feelings out to her mother.
"Oh honey! You have nothing to worry about. This is your wedding night, your day. He is marrying you and the difference between all the other girls and you is that he LOVES you Rory. All the other times were meaningless. You will have the most amazing time ever, don't worry ok?" Lorelai rubbed Rory's arm in comfort.
"Yeah, you're right. I'm just nervous that's all. Help me get dressed?" Rory said wiping away the tears that came and stood up.

Jess was anxious. The wedding was going to start in 5 minutes and he was getting nervous. He had never done this before and he wasn't sure of what to do. Luke was comforting Jess as they walked up to the altar to stand and wait for the beautiful bride to come out.
Suddenly the music started playing and the bridesmaids and groomsmen were all walking out. Jess's stomach turned and he took deep breaths. As the last set of people walked down the aisle, Jess looked up seeing Rory. Immediately his breath was taken away and all nervousness he had was gone.
Whoa! he thought She looks so beautiful. I can't believe that she is marrying me. This perfect, most beautiful girl that I have ever met is going to marry me!
Rory was smiling walking down the aisle. She forgot all nervousness once she saw Jess. The way his face looked when he looked up and saw her made her blush. She had always loved that part about weddings. When the groom looked up and saw the bride for the first time on their wedding day.
So this is it? This is the day I will spend the rest of my life with Jess. The most amazing and only guy I have ever loved.
Jess and Rory smiled at each other when she reached the altar. As Jess went to get her and walked back up with her he asked, "You ready?"
"More than ever." Rory replied smiling at Jess.

The wedding was one of the most beautiful ones that had happened in Stars Hollow. It was short yet elegant. All the people that went to the wedding cried. They had seen Rory grow up and now get married. The reception went by fast and Jess and Rory were becoming nervous of the night to come.
Luke and Lorelai walked Jess and Rory to their new apartment. Lorelai looked over at Rory who was leaning on Jess and winked at her. Rory smiled and yawned leaning on to Jess more.
Jess noticing Rory's fatigue stopped kissed the top of her head and picked her up.
"Jess!" Rory giggled.
"What? It's tradition to carry the bride over the threshold." Jess smirked.
"I know." Rory giggled again leaning her head against Jess and yawning again. She figured she should put on a show for her mom and Luke so they didn't know about what was going to happen tonight.
"Are you tired?" Jess whispered into Rory's ear.
"No, just putting on a show so we won't get twenty questions before we head upstairs." Rory winked and smiled slyly at Jess.
Jess chuckled and looked at Lorelai.
Jess caught Lorelai's eye and Jess yawned, deciding to play along with Rory.
"Well I think you two are tired. We will leave now." Luke said completely oblivious to everything.
"Thanks Luke." Rory sleepily replied.
Luke smiled and pulled keys out of his pocket. "Here are your keys. The apartment is all yours."
"Dirty!" Lorelai finally burst out.
"Mom!" Rory sternly disapproved of her mom's comment.
"Ok, ok. Not dirty." Lorelai smirked looking at Jess and Rory.
"Goodnight mom!" Rory annoyingly said goodbye.
"Goodnight love. Congrats and sleep well." Lorelai said kissing Rory on her forehead and Jess on his cheek.
