"Well no but it's a start."

"What do you mean by no? If anyone should be unhappy it should be me. You never called after we slept together."

"Maybe that was because your girlfriend, now fiancé, and you were fighting. Now I am all for revenge sex but you just kept talking about her."

"Well sorry."

"So you're engaged."

"Yeah after you never called me I fixed my relationship with Melissa."

"I can see that and how is that going for you?"

"Pretty well."

"When are you guys getting married?"

"Wow you ask a lot of question Gilmore."

"I'm just curious."

"We have not talked about a date I just proposed to her so her parents would be happy. They said we were dating long enough. So no marriage for you?"

"No I just haven't met the right guy yet."

"That's too bad. There are so few good men on the market these days. What happened to Sophie's dad?"

"He is engaged apparently. He doesn't know about Sophie though."

"Well it is his loss Sophie is a cute kid and you are a great girl Gilmore."

"Yeah well I was thinking that I might want to tell him about her sometime what do you think?"

"Well you know the phone works both ways if he was interested he would have called don't you think?"

"Well you never called after we slept together."

"This is true but I wasn't sure you were interested."

"I am…was very interested."

"What was that?"

"What was what?"

"You said am interested."

"I meant was."

"But you said am."

"So what if I am?"

"Well then I would have to say that's great because the interest is mutual."

"And what can you do about that interest?"

Jess grabbed her around the waist and pulled her closer.

"I could do this." He kissed Rory. "Or I could say meet me at this address tomorrow at let's say three." He handed Rory a slip of paper and then walked away.

Rory took the paper and put it in her pocket. She would look at it later when everyone was asleep she didn't want people to get suspicious when Jess returned alone. Rory ran and caught up with him and they walked back as if nothing had happened.

Rory could see Sophie starting to run towards her as she got closer to the house. For having short legs she could run fast. Rory picked up the pace and bent down to pick up her daughter. She wanted to tell Jess but first she had to explore where they may end up. He was engaged but Rory had ended serious relationships before.

Jess went onto the porch where his fiancé was waiting and kissed her. It wasn't like how he kissed Rory he never kissed anyone like he kissed Rory but he needed Melissa incase Rory fell through again. Three years ago Jess was ready to take the plunge for Rory and then nothing ever came of their physical relationship. Of course nothing came out of their romantic relationship either. There was something different about it this time though. Jess was ready to explore but he needed Melissa as insurance, he was not going to be the one walking out with a broken heart this time.

Rory gave Sophie to April who brought her to play with Ryan. Sophie loved her Aunt and Uncle so Rory knew that she would be busy for a while. Rory went inside and sat down at the kitchen table. She rested her head on her arms and closed her eyes. She was startled to hear her mother's voice.

"So what was that all about?"

Rory turned to face her mom.

"What was what all about?"

"You, Jess, alone. Did you tell him?"

"Did it look like I told him?"

"No, but then again Jess has show a lack of emotion before."

"Whatever, hey can you watch Sophie for a little bit tomorrow?"

"Sure. Why what's up?"

"Nothing much I just would like some alone time and I figured this might be the only time I can get that."

"Alright. Oh and by the way you and Sophie are out in the garage. Luke re-did it when he knew everyone was coming. Melissa and Jess are going to stay at the diner and I think April is going to sleep on the couch."

"Are you sure? I mean I can take the couch and April can have the garage."

"April actually wanted to sleep on the couch so I said it would be fine with you either way."

"Alright. So I guess I should move my stuff."

"Actually Luke already did that so you are all set."

"Okay. I am going to go out there if you don't mind."

"Sure I guess I will call you when we go down to the diner for dinner."

"Sounds good to me."

Rory started to walk towards the garage.

"Rory…"

Rory turned to face her mom.

"Yeah."

"Just know that no matter what happens I love you."

"I love you too."
