She didn't tell me that.
There is no way in hell Rory would go any where with David…
Would she?
Write back- NOW!
Ps: who was your source?

My source is very reliable, but I refuse to tell you who because then you'll steal him from me!
And yes- I think Rory would go on a date with David.

I heard that you're going to the game with David tomorrow.
I can't believe you!
And how come I wasn't informed of this…
It's a shame to say that I found out from Madeline.

Damn.
News gets around way too fast!
Sorry Louise… I was going to tell you, but it just slipped my mind.

SURE!
Just like when you lost your virginity to Tristan and it slipped your mind
I found out through him weeks later
What a nice friend you are.
And I'm ashamed of MYSELF because I'm gossip queen- why am I in the dark?

I should be the one who's ashamed- my best friend is 'gossip queen'
dramatic sigh
Just kidding
It's no big deal really- we're just going as friends…

What?
I didn't know about this…
Why the hell would they be going together?
She hates him.

Email to: Sex-god
Maybe he was better in the sack than we thought.
Maybe she's horny
Maybe she loves him
Who knows with women- you know?

In the sack?
Whatever…
She doesn't love him
And she's not horny
Well…maybe she is…
A little…
Yeah you're right- women!

All I know is- I hate David, and if he even looks at her the wrong way- he's dead.

Hey Chris,
I just wanted to email you and say thanks for the notes today.
I really appreciate it, you know?
Not everyone would take notes for someone else…and I should have been there.
I feel bad.
You shouldn't have to copy notes for me- just because I have a doctor's appointment
Sorry and thanks

Paris,
You babble too much Gellar
Really it's fine, because I know you would take notes for me.
Just try to relax...

Rory Gilmore!
I can't believe you are going with David to the game!
Don't you and your best neighbor do that as some ritual every year?
Whatever…you're a loser.
I emailed Chris to say thank you for copying some notes for me, because I feel really bad. He shouldn't have to do anything for me- you know? What do I do for him? And copying notes can get really messy and annoying!
Paris
ps: Do I babble?

Can everyone just let it go? I'm going with David and that's it!
Yes- Tristan and I go together every year, but this year we're doing things differently. There's nothing wrong with a little change, right Paris?
Chris is a sweetie, and you know he doesn't mind doing things for you.
And yes- YOU BABBLE!

So…you're going with David to the game?
Strange- I thought you two didn't talk anymore.
Tristan
&-
Rory sat at her computer reading his words over and over.
She didn't know how to respond- his email was so simple and yet so complex at the same time.
And in that moment when she began to type a single word- in walks her mother.
"Munchkin," Lorelai announced, coming into the room with a form-fitting black dress on, "do I look fat?"
"Only a little," Rory swirled around in her chair, and shrugged at her mother.
Lorelai pouted, and looked in the mirror, "I look like a cow! I'm telling you- it's this healthy diet your father has us on! My body lives on junk food, but he doesn't understand this. Take away the fat and our metabolism slows… cant he understand?"
Rory shook her head, and said, "he never will, nor will anyone else in this world. Face it Mom- we're loonies. Everyone knows it."
"We are not!" Lorelai held up a finger sternly, "and I refuse to listen to you if you think so."
Laughing
"Do I really look fat?"
Rory shook her head, and stood up to wrap her arms around her mothers' waist. "You look beautiful."
Lorelai cracked a smile, "of course I do."
More laughing
"Where's my son?"
"Who?"
"Don't play dumb with me Lorelai Leigh Gilmore or I swear I'll give you up for adoption."
"You cannot do that!"
"Why not?"
"I'm too old…"
"A child is never too old! If I want I can give you up when you're fifty-five- don't test me!"
"You wouldn't do that!"
"Try me…"
"Okay fine," Rory plummeted down on her bed in defeat, "he's home."
"But is this not your movie night?" Lorelai asked, sitting down beside her.
"Yes," a sigh, "usually."
The older Gilmore furrowed her eyebrows, "don't get me wrong by asking, but what's happening between the two of you? What happened to your pacts and friends for life blasé?"
Rory shrugged, "we're getting old now Mom."
"And?"
"and we're changing…"
"Yes okay- you and Tristan- change? Never!"
"Tell that to him," Rory scoffed, "he's the one who's bringing Asia to the game."
"The yearly game that you two attend every year together?"
"That's the one."
"Why?"
"Cause she asked him."
"And who is she?"
"Remember Asia- the love of his life," Rory explained, rolling her eyes.
"Oh- that one."
"Yeah, she's back."
"He's a punk!"
"Really- its fine Mom…I'm going with someone else anyway."
"And who might this be?"
"Uh…no one."
"Who?"
"No one."
"Rory."
"Mom."
"Rory."
"Lorelai."
"I'm telling dad."
"Not if I tell dad first."
Lorelai gave her a pointed look, and crossed her arms to her chest.
"Okay fine, it's David!"
"The horror…"
"See this is why I didn't want to tell you."
"You are not going with him."
"Yes I am."
"No you're not."
"Mom."
"Rory."
"Mom, we're not getting back together or anything."
"Swear?"
"Pinky promise…"
"Well you never break a pink promise- so I'll let you go out of the goodness of my heart."
"Aw thanks Mom," Rory said in sarcasm.
"You're welcome kiddo."
"Does this have anything to do with making Tristan mad?"
"Why would I want to do that?"
Pointed look.
"Sort of," Rory confessed, standing up and pacing, "I just feel like I'm losing my best friend, and I don't know if I can handle it."
"You know Tristan would never do anything to break up your friendship."
Silence…
"Unless it's more than just the friendship that your worried about losing."
Silence…
"I knew it!"
"What?" Rory asked, trying to sound confused.
"You and Tristan have a thing!"
"No we don't," the younger Gilmore blushed, and tried to hide a smile.
"Always!"
"Never!"
"How long has this been going on?"
"There's nothing going on."
"That long, huh?"
"YES!"
"And I was never told- why?"
"Because then you would start getting weird with us…"
"Never…"
Silence
"So when I assumed that David was the one who took your virginity- I was…"
"Wrong."
"Thank the lord!"
"I've never seen a mother so happy that her child is not a virgin."
"I'll beat you later," Lorelai shrugged, "I'm just happy that you didn't lose it to that jerk."
"Yeah," Rory confessed, "me too."
"So, you and Tristan?"
"Me and Tristan…and Asia."
"What a lovely triangle."
"You got that right."
Done
I know this chapter was kind of pointless, and took me forever to get posted.
I have bad writers block right now!
And I know I said the game would be in this chapter, but I couldn't do it…I know it will come out wrong- so I apologize.
I'll update as soon as I can.
Don't hate me…
And please review!
