Can't Cry These Tears Anymore: Part 7
--------------
The next morning---
Pan around the wood floor to see pieces of clothing spread out in miscellaneous spots. Dean woke up first and adjusted his eyes to the warm sunlight that entered through the bay window. Remembering where he was and the actions of the night before, he smiled to himself, keeping his arm loosely held around her waist. Knowing she was still asleep, he carressed her back's bare skin with his fingertips in a circular motion. Rory arched her back and woke up a little startled to find someone in bed next to her. Dean placed his lips to her shoulder and Rory smiled. She turned to face him, covering herself with a white sheet.
"Good morning." she said, her voice hoarse, and added, "god, my throat is sore."
Dean just smiled and Rory blushed endlessly, but couldn't help but smile.
"I've been waiting for that." Dean said casually.
"I can't believe I have you in my life again." she replied.
He kissed her swollen lips longingly. Rory pulled away and licked her lips.
Dean let out a sigh, "So, uh..where's the shower?"
"Right through there.." she pointed to the door across from the bed.
"Can I?.." he asked motioning toward the shower.
"Oh, absolutely.." she said with a grin.
Dean got up, slipping on a pair of pants, and walked through the bathroom door, leaving it open a crack. Rory sat up in her spot and brushed her hair out of her eyes. Wrapping the blanket fully around her, she rose out of her bed and walked out into the living room, then the kitchen to get some coffee. She heard the shower running in the other room and sat down to drink her coffee when there was a knock at the door. She gave the door an awkward glare, then got up to look through the peep-hole. It was Lorelai. Rory bit her lip and gave a nervous smile, while opening the door.
"Mom!...w-what..are you doing here?" she asked excitedly and nervously.
"I came to surprise you and Lane..she's still here, right?"
"No....she left last night."
Lorelai stepped in and observed and looked Rory up and down giving Rory a strange look, "Why?"
"Well, she insisted on it. I met up with an old friend and she didn't want to be a third wheel I guess."
"Huh. Who's this 'old friend' you speak of?" Lorelai asked while slowly walking toward Rory's bedroom.
Rory followed her, and stepped in front of her, blocking the door.
"Hey, do you want some coffee? I have coffee." she said, trying to change the subject.
"Is the shower running?"
"Uh..yeah. I was, uh about to get in the shower when you knocked on the door." Rory said with a smile, thinking that it was a reasonable excuse.
"Do you have a guy here?" Lorelai asked with a knowing smile.
"Mom."
"Ha! You do!" she said with a bit of amusement.
"Why do you always show up at the worst time?"
"So, who is it? Anyone I know?" Lorelai asked while walking into the small kitchen.
Rory followed her, "Uh, well yeah it is someone you know."
"Really? Oh! who?" she said, taking a sip of her coffee.
Just then, Dean came out of Rory's bedroom with a towel around his waste about to say somthing when he noticed Lorelai, who at that time had spit out her coffee back into the mug.
Lorelai looked between the two, "Uh...sorry, bad coffee..."
Rory turned to see Dean and gave him a 'sorry' look.
"Dean...I believe you remember my mom?" she said, sounding a bit annoyed at the situation.
"Uh, yeah...hi Lorelai."
"Dean..." she said, trying to process her surroundings.
"Is there a problem, Dean?" Rory asked, walking over to him and pushing him into her room.
"Sorry...I just couldn't figure out how to work the pressure in the shower."
"I didn't know she was coming..i'm so sorry!" Rory apologized for the awkwardness.
Dean laughed, "It's okay..a little embarassing, but okay."
Rory gave him a sad face, "I'll make sure she's out of here before you get out of the shower."
"Alright." he said leaning down, to kiss her. It was meant to be a short kiss, but Rory traveled her hands from his chest up to his neck, pulling him closer.
"I'll try to get her out of here as quick as I can." she said with excitement.
"You do that." he said with equal tone. He went back into the bathroom while Rory pulled on a robe and went out to Lorelai.
"So...Dean?!" Lorelai said with excitement and disbelief, "he's the 'old friend.'?"
"Yep. We ran into each other at the coffee shop yesterday and.."
"You slept with him."
"Mom!"
"I'm just trying to get to the point."
"Well, you certainly don't hesitate."
"I could say the same for you." Lorelai said with a smile.
