A/n: Sorry for the wait; the Internet at my house broke! But it's back, and here are 5 new chapters!
The police wasted little time arresting Dean. He had barely gotten to his house before the police were there. He was arrested and taken to the one cell in the Stars Hollow jail. His father followed, and soon the vicious details were being sorted out.
"I didn't punch Jess. He lost his footing and fell." Dean insisted.
Meanwhile, Rory was still by Jess's side. Night was about to fall, and Sookie and Jackson were in the waiting room. They had stayed at the inn to clean up after their own almost wedding, which Lorelai thanked them profusely for.
"Oh, we can get married another weekend." Sookie assured Lorelai, and Jackson nodded in aggreement.
"We're just concerned about Rory and Jess." Jackson added.
"Oh, and here are some clothes for you to change into. Babbette swung by your house and found something for you and for Rory." Sookie offered a tote bag of clothes to Lorelai.
"You guys are the best!" Lorelai hugged them both, with tears in her eyes.
"What does Chris think of this new twist in his daughter's life? Isn't he here?" Sookie asked.
"Chris!" Lorelai gasped. She hadn't even thought to call him after their conversation. Rory would want him here. She found her cell phone and speed dialed him.
"Lor." Chris didn't even say hello. "What's up?"
"Well, right after you left, Rory found Jess down by the stream. They talked, she kissed him, Dean saw it, punched Jess, disappeared, Jess fell, hit his head, and he's in a coma in the hospital. Can you come?"
"Of course." Chris replied in a heartbeat. Then he paused. "Can Sherry come?"
"If that will get you here sooner. Rory hasn't reached her breaking point yet, so if you hurry you'll just make it for the meltdown."
"We'll be there as soon as possible." Chris promised, and hung up.
