Casper's not an idiot; he knows exactly how this crush is going to end, but he can't help himself as he sinks deeper and deeper in love. But when Jess slowly starts to befriend Casper, could it mean that he too is secretly harbouring feelings?PART TWO (Chapters 32-?)
Two months into the relationship, all seems to be going well, until their final year of school begins and there are colleges to think about... not to mention parents and ex-boyfriends, and the very real possibility of Love with a capital L.

Summary
This is a AU, one where Jess Mariano never came to Stars Hollow at seventeen, and that single shift sent butterfly effects through everyone’s lives.
Rory walked out of Yale and out of Logan’s life on her twenty-first birthday because she couldn’t recognize herself anymore. Now she’s back home, stripped of her sense of self.
Jess has spent four years on the road living on fumes. At almost twenty-one, out of options, he drives east toward the only place he hasn’t been yet: Stars Hollow.
She’s trying to remember who she is.
He’s trying to figure out if he can be someone at all.
Their lives are about to collide for the first time.

Summary
The longest conversation they’ve ever had was when Rory cornered Jess in the cafeteria and tried to get him to join a trans student group and Jess had tried to figure out the most polite way to say that he would rather eat a live grenade than discuss his gender in any context other than a one-on-one conversation with a close and trusted friend. He had wanted to find a polite way of saying it because Rory is cute, even if he seems remarkably uptight. Now, at the meeting, he has multiple pens of different colors lined up next to his notebook. Jess doesn’t even have the pocket-sized memo pad and ballpoint he usually has stuffed in some pocket. He wonders what it’s like to be so put-together that you actually take notes at a bullshit 8am meeting. Probably, he thinks, knocking back the end of his first mug of tea and starting on the second one, it’s all a sign of deep internal disorganization.

Summary
In the library of a large, beautiful, historic house, Rory Gilmore runs into a boy with dark hair, smoking a cigarette, Chilton tie askew. She's still growing accustomed to all the strange faces that populate the school's hallowed halls, but she's seen him before. Poring over a paperback in lunch - the spine always cracked - making some witty but intelligent remark in class, or getting in the occasional argument with Paris Geller. She's noticed him before. Now she can never forget him.
Jess Mariano's life has taken a strange turn over the past year. His absurdly wealthy grandfather has plucked him out of the bowels of lower middle class obscurity and placed him in private school. For the first time in his life, he knows stability, equanimity, or his approximation of it, and, not for the first time of course, a profound restlessness and irritation with the stuck up brats who attend Chilton. He's not expecting Rory Gilmore. He's not prepared for her. He doesn't know if he can ever really be prepared for a hurricane.
