I love working at Lukes cafe. Although it only got better when his nephew Jess moved into town. Luke having known me, my sister and mom since well forever. It was easy to work with him. When Jess got to town and Luke told him he had to help out in the cafe, he was not happy at all but he had to help out when I was there.

(flashback)

“Uncle Luke” Jess said obviously annoyed

“I told you it’s Mr.Luke to you! Now, why don’t you actually help, fill drinks up, take orders something” Luke said irritated before turning and handing my order. As I walked over to Kirk giving him his order.

I could feel eyes on me as I walked over and back.

“and what's your name?” he asked me leaning on the counter looking at me with a curious smile

“y/n and your Jess” I said cleaning the counter around him, wiping it down

“So you know who I am?” he asked in a cocky tone as if I’m supposed to be impressed

“I’ve known Luke for what seems like forever he talks and vents. I knew you were coming to town” I told him turning to look him in the eyes.

(end flashback)

We had a weird back and forth banter for a couple of weeks in the beginning. But after a month in a half Jess asked me out I thought he was joking but when I realized he was serious I stuttered but I did agree to go on a date with him. One date leads to another and so on and so on.

And now here we are 9 months later still together. The only thing that is a problem is we can’t let my mom know. Or anyone in town because gossip is like wildfire in Stars Hollow.

Luke knows from the beginning because he figured it out when Jess asked questions about me.

Rory, she caught us one time when we were coming home from a date. We never had dates in Stars Hollow. That way no one could find out and tell my mom.

Lorelai Gilmore that is my mom. Ever since Jess came to town she has not liked him. Its more of a passionate hate really. In fact, no one in the whole town had liked Jess since he came here. They haven’t even given him a chance. She hates Jess, like I said, with a passion. If she found out I was dating him I would be dead and so would he.

Although honestly I’m shocked that she hasn’t found out. Jess kisses me not so secretly in the cafe all the time, Sometimes it's not even discrete. I spend some nights with him in his new room above Lukes, and sometimes he even sneaks into my room and spends the night at mine. (perk of a deepening sleeping Lorelai)

And it was all good until a week ago. It was a normal day, a normal shift. I was drawing behind the counter, sitting on a stool. There were only 2 customers in the place at the moment. Luke was counting money from the register and Jess was reading next to me with his arm around my waist, we thought it was safe, pretty much no one around and we were so close it just looked like his arm was on his leg, and plus we were behind the bar.

But apparently, we didn’t hide it that well that time. Because when my mom and Rory walked in everything came crashing down.

( flashback )

The bell rang as 2 people ventured through the door. As Jess and me, looked up to see it was my mom and sister. Jess started to move his arm from around my waist, making it look like he is stretching. But apparently, my mom got to the counter to fast and saw. Of course, we knew we couldn’t hide it forever but I loved to think I could.   

“Uh - what is this?” she said with a weary tone

“Mom-” I started but got cut off

“Don’t mom me. I want to know what I just saw” I could tell she was gonna start fuming

“Lorelai, just let us explain-” Luke tried getting her to calm down considering she was starting a scene

“Explain what?! Huh?! Wait you-you knew about this?!” she said raising her voice

“Mom let them explain before-” Rory tried getting her to see reason but was cut off

“Before what? And of course, you knew to right? Does the whole town know?!” Mom said pointing outside

“No, only Luke and Rory know.” I tried getting her to understand

“Oh, so you just didn’t want me to know is that it?” she said more as a statement

“We-e wanted t-to-” I stuttered out

“But?!” She exclaimed

“But we were afraid you would react exactly like this.” Jess said to her tightening his hold on my hand trying to comfort me through this

“Damn right I act like this. . . How long has this” pointing between, me and Jess “been going on between the two of you?” looking between us, her face practically red and steam coming out her ears.

“9 months” Jess said confidently standing up from his stool

“When did it start?” Mom asked in an angry toned voice

“A month an half after he got to town” I stated standing in-between Luke and Jess

“You’ve been together since then and for that long. Did you ever plan on telling me?” she asked but any answer I give I know she would not like.

“Yes, it's just-”

“What? It's just what?”

“They have been trying to find a way to tell you Lorelai” Luke said trying to help us out

“Your not the easiest to talk to all the time mom” Rory stated

“Well if you can’t tell me thing’s or trust me with stuff than maybe you shouldn’t live with me anymore.” Mom blattered out but didn’t look sorry

“What?- Mom!”I gasped out

“Mom you can’t be serious,” Rory said looking at moms face trying to see if it was a joke

“Yeah Lorelai, that is a little extreme don’t ya think?” Luke put a hand on my shoulder

“Well, it’s true.” Mom said grabbing her purse moving towards the door

“But mom-” I couldn’t believe what was happening.

“No, it’s final. You can come get some stuff from the house later” she stated before leaving

Jess pulled me into him wrapping his arm that wasn’t holding my hand, around my shoulders. Whispering that it was all going to be alright that I still had him and etc…

(end of flashback)

That was a week ago. Since then mom hasn’t even entered Lukes’.

After everything that went down that day Rory still comes by and she went to get my stuff that day. Jess and Luke didn’t think it would be a good idea for me to go and I agreed. Luke told me I could stay with him and Jess till my mom cooled down enough to talk.

And if she didn’t when dad (Christopher) gets back from his trip I could move in with him. The day after the fight, I called my dad and told him what happened he wanted to come back home early but I told him it was ok and that I had a place to stay.
