Rory followed her mother out of the Gilmore House. She was surprised. Dinner went fairly well. Grandma had agreed to not have a big family dinner. They hadn't asked any further questions about her and Dean's breakup which made it easier for her.
"Well that was probably the best dinner we will ever attend" Lorelei said getting into the driver seat of the jeep.
Rory stared at her. "I must be hearing things cause I just thought I heard you say that was the best dinner"
Lorelei rolled her eyes. "Your right. You must be hearing things"
"Hey mom?"
"Yeah sweets?"
"Can you do me a favor?"
"What?"
"Can you drop me off at Tristan's house?"
Lorelei looked at her daughter and started giggling. "Ok"
"Mom, Stop laughing, it's really not that funny"
"Yes it is"
"Whatever"

Tristan was watching the rest of the football game when he heard the doorbell. He stood up and walked to the door.
"Rory?"
"Hey you"
He smiled and gave her a kiss pulling her inside and closing the door behind them. "Hi"
She smiled.
"How was dinner with the g-parents?"
"Good actually. And you should thank me because Grandma wanted to have one big family dinner with you and your family. But I got you out of it"
"Your right, now how should I go about thanking you?" He asked raising his eyebrows. She hit him on the shoulder. "Don't get cocky Dugrey"
He smirked. "Only for you babe, only for you"
"So what were you doing before I arrived?"
"Watching the football game."
She nodded.
"Melanie went to a party tonight"
Rory raised her eyebrows. "A party?"
"I tried to tell her she couldn't go but she didn't listen to me"
"Overprotective brother"
"That's exactly what Mel said"
"Am I ever going to get to meet her?"
"She has to be back by 11 so if your still here then yes"
"Oh darn because I had this other boyfriend I was going to see at 10"
"Very funny"
"I thought so too"
He chuckled. "Want to watch a movie?"
"Sure but I get to pick!"
"They're in the cabinet by the tv"
Rory raced to the living room and opened the cupboard. She picked out the movie and handed it to Tristan so he could turn it on.
"Casablanca?"
Rory nodded. "Second best movie ever"
"What's the first?"
"Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory"
"I don't think I've seen that movie"
Rory stared at him with her mouth completely open. "That's it, we can't be together"
"I'll rent it tomorrow and you can come over and watch it with me"
She beamed. "Ok you can be my boyfriend again"
"Oh darn"
She hit him in the arm as she sat next to him on the couch, laying her head on his shoulder. He wrapped his arm around her and pressed the play button on the remote.

Two hours later and the movie was finished and so was Rory. She had knocked out on Tristan's chest in the beginning of the second hour. Tristan slowly reached for the remote and pressed stop. It was about 10. He knew Lorelei would be worried about Rory so he grabbed his cell phone off the coffee table and dialed The Gilmore house.
"Hello?" Lorelei answered.
"Hey it's Tristan" He whispered.
"Oh Hey, Why are you whispering?" She asked whispering.
"Rory fell asleep in the middle of Casablanca and I thought you might want to know"
"Do you want me to come get her?"
"It doesn't matter she can stay here for the night if your okay with that or I can give her a ride home"
"Eh she can stay there I'm too tired to wait up for her"
He chuckled. "Alright, well Rory will call you in the morning I guess"
"Yeah, Thank you for calling"
"No problem. I knew if I didn't you would worry and if you started to worry you'd probably come over and chop my head off"
She laughed. "Yeah I probably would've. I'll let you go. Take care of her"
He looked down at the sleeping beauty next to him. "I will"
They hung up and Tristan just sat there staring at his favorite person in the world. He couldn't believe she was sleeping next to him let alone the fact that she agreed to be his girlfriend. He couldn't believe it. He was so happy that she did.
He wrapped his arms around her and lifted her up. She unconsciously snuggled into him laying her head on his chest. His grip tightened as he carried her upstairs and to the guest room. He laid her on the bed lifting up the covers and pulling them over her. He kissed her forehead and walked out the door.

Rory slowly opened her eyes to a room she'd never seen before. She sat up and looked around. It was a fancy room. Then she remembered last night. She smiled. She was at Tristan's. She pushed down the covers and walked out the door when she bumped into someone. "Oh I'm so sorry…." She looked up to see a girl Rory guessed to be Melanie. "Oh, you must be Melanie"
The girl smiled. "Yep that'd be me. You must be Rory then"
Rory nodded. "Did you have fun at your party?"
"Not really. It was a lot more boring then I thought it would be"
Rory shrugged. "Well maybe you'll have more fun at the next party"
"Maybe"
They walked downstairs and found Tristan in the kitchen cooking. "Good morning ladies. I assume you two already introduced yourselves"
Rory nodded as she walked over and stood next to him. "Are you cooking?"
"No, Actually I'm just putting massive amounts of substances I assume to be food into a pan on the oven"
Rory smiled. "I was just wondering. I never knew you could cook"
He leaned down to her ear and whispered, "There are a lot of things you don't know about me"
Rory shivered when his breath touched her ear.
"Ok, younger sister's in the room" Melanie said disgusted
Tristan laughed. "Sorry Mel"
"Yeah whatever"
"Oh I almost forgot" Tristan remembered turning to Rory. "Your supposed to call your mom"
"Oh Geez your right I completely forgot she's probably ready to shoot me"
"No, Actually I called her after the movie finished and told her you were asleep and that you would call her in the morning"
"Oh. Thank you so very much! you're a life savor!"
He smirked. "I try"
She hit him in the arm and grabbed the phone.
"Hey Mom"
"Hey Sweets"
"What are you doing?"
"Luke is trying to teach me how to cook"
"Are you serious?"
"Yes, very"
"Wow. Does he know what he's getting himself into?"
"I hope so. Anyways how was last night at the Brad Pitt look a like's house?"
"Mom"
"What? I was just asking"
Rory rolled her eyes. "It was fine. Tristan's cooking breakfast"
"Tristan can cook?"
"That's what I said"
"What is he cooking?"
Rory turned to Tristan. "Tristan what are you cooking?"
"Pancakes" He answered
"Pancakes" Rory repeated back to her mother.
"Hey, Sweetie, I gotta go. Luke says I cant learn how to cook when I'm on the phone"
"You can't learn how to cook when your off the phone"
"Tell him that. I'll see ya later"
"See ya bye"
Rory hung up.
"Your mom's learning how to cook?" Tristan asked.
Rory nodded. "Luke's teaching her."
He shook his head. "He must be crazy"
Rory beamed.
Tristan finished the pancakes and the Dugrey's and the Gilmore had breakfast. Melanie watched the two love-birds arguing with each other.
1 year. She thought. I'll give them 1 year till they're married.
