Rework of 5x21

Rory began walking out of the Standford paper feeling defeated. She thought she had been working so hard, as the days passed she felt she belonged. That this was the start of something. This was her big lucky break but it seemed liked the Huntzbergers yet again had lifted her spirits to only crush them again. Except this time it wasn't Logan is was his father. She should've seen this coming, her mom found the internship fishy she should've stayed with her original answer which was no thank you. Ugh she felt this black cloud loom over her. The thought of driving to yet another Huntzberger function, Honors engagement party made her stomach flop. She didn't feel in the proper mood to be celebrating. As she continued to walk towards her car. She bumped into a man instructing two others moving a couch she didn't even look up, afraid the tears might show in her eyes. She just said a small low apology. Which he responded

"Well if you looked up it might make the whole walking thing simpler"

The voice..she had hear it before so familiar, it was a voice she knew. It was Jess's voice. She begins to lift her head, and she already feels the heartache sink lower and tears wanting to explode. He smirked at her, she guessed trying to win some appeal with her. But she was too mad that his usually charms weren't going to work. She finally speaks

"Oh great I would bump into YOU today"

"Well where's that Stars Hollow neighborly charm" he asks sarcastically

She shrugs "I don't know in Stars Hollow"

Hre crocks his head "Is something wrong?"

"What does it matter to you?"

"Your right it doesn't" he turns to begins to walk away towards the building door. She runs up to him and begins punching his back. He yells out "Hey!" turns back around facing her and grabs her by the wrists. "What the hell is wrong with you?!"

"You don't get to walk away this time! I do! You always do that! You always come and tear me up with words and walk away. Well hit me with your best shot cause someone already said the words they needed to crush me" her voice begins to crack and tears begin to fall "Everything...everything is falling apart. I...don't know what to do"

He sighs and grabs her hand "Come here" they walk into the building. "Hey why don't you guys check out that bar we passed earlier" he says towards the guys.

"Oh thank god" Matt responded. Both men seemed to completely not notice the woman in tears and leave.

"Rory what's wrong?"

"Nothing...ugh everything! I'm not going to be a writer so I've just been wasting my time working towards something that I apparently have no talent in"

"What? That's crazy."

"How? You didn't think I had it. Everyone says I'm so sheltered and they're right. My first night at Yale my mommy had to stay with me"

"Rory..."

"I don't have it. I'd make a lovely assistant but i...I don't have it. Guess I'm ready now Jess take me away. I don't need school."

"Rory who said all this?"

"Mitchum Huntzberger"

"One guy? One guy cause all this self pitying?"

"It's not just any guy. He is a newspaper mogul." she sniffles and scoffs " though I shouldve known better my mom thought it was fishy but I went with it because it was handed to me."

"What? What was handed to you?"

"The internship. He just showed up at the Dailey news feeling bad about how his family treated me and offered it to me. You know none of this was supposed to happen. This is all your fault"
