Chapter One (doorbell announces Jess’s arrival)

The door opens, revealing Jess, in a nice navy blue shirt and chinos.

“Jess!” Rory squeals in surprise.

“Yup, that would be me,” he remarks, looking embarrassed.

“Emily Gilmore, Jess Mariano,” Rory introduces them. They shake hands, Emily
looks pleased.

“Thank you for inviting me,” Jess says as he shakes her hand.

“My pleasure. Well, come in, come in, I heard that the traffic was just awful
on the way here, is that right, Jess?” Emily asked as they entered the house.

“Yes, ma’am. It was pretty bad,” he said simply.

Rory linked his arm and whispered to him, “What’s with the duds?”

Jess leans over to return the whisper, “What? Don’t like your guys all ‘G-Q’d’
up?”

“It’s just….not you,” Rory answered shyly.

“Well, I don’t think the real me would make much of an impression on your
grandmother, so I’ve opted to be someone else tonight,” he smirked.

“Tess?” Rory quipped back with a raised eyebrow.

“Exactly,” he smirked in return.

They entered the dining room and took their seats, Jess sitting in Lorelai’s
usual spot.

“What would you like to drink, Jess, Rory?” Rory cringed and thought, **please
don’t ask for a beer!**

“A soda would be fine,” Jess answered. Rory mirrored his response.

“So, Jess, what are your interests?” Emily asks as they begin their meal.

“Well, other than your grand-daughter, I’m very interested in literature and
music,” Jess replied seriously.

“Really, literature! How nice. Have you seen Rory’s book collection? It’s
quite impressive. Oh, Rory, you MUST show Jess your grandfather’s study!”
Emily said excitedly.

“Oh, yes, I will,” Rory answered, shooting a look at Jess which said **who are
you, and what have you done with my boyfriend?** Jess smirked back, wiggling
his eyebrows.

“Who is your favorite writer, Jess?” Emily queried.

“Hemingway. I think I’ve read everything he’s ever written,” Jess answered.

“I believe Richard has a few first editions of his work in his study, they are
quite remarkable. I do wish that he were here, Richard is also quite fond of
Hemingway, I’m sure you would have a wonderful conversation about his work.”
Rory sat there, stunned by how well they were getting along. She wished that
her mother was here to see it.

“I think Rory is the only person I know who doesn’t like Hemingway,” Jess
reached over to Rory and tapped her leg with his foot.

“Hey, I’m not the ONLY person!” Rory laughed, glad to finally be included in
the conversation. Emily laughed, amused at their banter.

“I can see why Rory is so fond of you, Jess,” Emily quipped and Rory and Jess
exchanged looks.

“Have you decided on a college and a profession, Jess?” Emily asked. Rory
cringed, afraid of the answer. Her mind was screaming, **please don’t say no
college, just working at Walmart sounds good**, since that will be the END of
this dinner!

“Well, I’ve been looking into the creative writing degree programs at both
Umass as well as Southern Connecticut State. I guess my decision will depend
on whether Rory chooses Harvard or Yale, since I’d like to go to school near
her if possible. I’d like to become a writer,” Jess explained, avoiding Rory’s
shocked and widened eyes. He looked serious. Rory wasn’t sure whether he was
just making that stuff up, or was he really thinking about college? This was
definitely a nice revelation about Jess if it’s true.

“Um, Grandma, would you mind if Jess and I spoke privately in the study for a
moment?” Rory asked. Jess still wouldn’t meet her eyes.

“Oh, of course, sure, I’ll Bea Beatrice clear and bring in dessert,” Emily
stated.

Rory and Jess head into the study and Rory shuts the door. Jess walks over to
the books and starts looking them over with his hands in his pockets.

“Jess!” Rory shouts, causing Jess to spin around.

“What?” he asked, the corners of his mouth turning upward slightly.

“Is this true? Or are you making all of this up??” Rory demanded. Her face
was flushed.

“Ooo, serious face! Is what true? Oh, you mean the college thing? Well,
yeah, I’ve been kinda waiting for you to figure wherwhere you’re going, then I
was going to surprise you. But this seemed like a good time to tell you…” Jess
said seriously.

“Oh my god! This is so amazing! You really want to be with me that much?
This is so great!” she said, oozing enthusiasm, throwing her arms around his
neck for a hug.

Jess put his arms around her waist. “Of course I want to be with you, do you
think I’d go through all the shit that I did for a year to get you, then just
let you run off to school and leave me?” he smiled and kissed her softly.

“You never cease to amaze me, Jess Mariano,” she stated, kissing him again. “I
can’t believe how great you’re getting along with her, my mother would have a
stroke if she saw how nice you are to hed hod how much she likes you,” Rory
added.

“I think we’d better get back. I’m sure you’re dying for dessert,” Jess teased
as they left the study.

“I’m sure once your grandmother reports back to Lorelai, she’s going to ask you
if you brought someone else, not me!” he teased back.

They walked back into the dining room holding hands and had their dessert.
Rory couldn’t wipe the smile off her face.

As they were leaving, Emily beamed at them. “Well, Rory, please feel free to
bring your young man with you whenever you like. Jess, it was very nice to
meet you. I hope you can some back soon to meet Richard.” Much to Rory’s
surprise, Jess blushed.

“Thank you for tonight,” he said.

“Thank you so much, grandma,” Rory gushed and hugged Emily before leaving.
