Chapter 14
A half hour after rory arrived at Tristan's. She heard the doorbell ring.
"Hey ror, can you get that, it's my date." She heard Tristan yell from his room.
"fine." Rory yelled back. I can't believe that he takes longer to get ready for a date then I do. Sighing rory got up from the counter where she was still sitting and went to get the door.
Opening the door, rory suddenly felt very awkward, standing in front of her was a blonde bombshell, dressed with impeccable taste, she looked like a doll, flawless skin, not a hair out of place, and here she was in just jeans and a tank top. With no makeup on and her hair was just in ponytail. "Wow" rory said out loud not even realizing she said it.
"Um thanks" the blonde said looking down. "Is Tristan here?"
"Oh, I'm sorry" rory said holding the door open for the girl to enter. "I'm rory." She said holding out her hand out for the girl to shake.
"Hi I'm Reagan. The girl said shaking it firmly and stepping into the hallway.
"I'll go get Tristan" rory said and left Reagan in the hallway alone.
Walking quickly towards Tristan's room, rory knocked and he told her to come in.
Tristan was also dressed nicely in black pants and a navy blue button down shirt with the first two buttons undone, his hair was spiky but it still had that same 'just rolled out of bed ' look to it. He was wearing black dress shoes, and a brown leather watch which added just the right about of a relaxed look to it, but still had the dressed to impress look also.
Rory took a sharp intake of breath. Now she had heard of people undressing other people with there minds before, but she had never done it herself ,until now, having just seen Tristan's body fresh from the shower she was sad to have it all covered up again , not that she minded , he looked amazing. And she was checking him out mercilessly.
"I take it, by the way that you're staring, that you like what you see." Tristan said his blue eyes sparkling, the color of his shirt bringing out his eyes more than usual, he was looking at rory from where he was standing by his dresser, putting his wallet in his back pocket.
Quickly looking at Tristan's eyes, rory blushed, he had noticed her staring. She would never live that down. "Don't be so sure of yourself dugrey" rory said walking towards the door. "Your date is here." She said with a trace of anger.
"Ah, are you jealous? Tristan said winking at her. "I bet that you're wishing that you could be the one by my side tonight." Tristan whispered in her ear there bodies almost touching.
Rory shivered from the feel of Tristan's breath on her skin.
"See you later rory" she heard him say as he left the room. Leaving her standing by the door chills running up and down her body. Why did he have to do that to her. She thought angrily.
---- Just as Tristan and Reagan left, rory heard her cell phone ring. Walking into the living room, rory began looking thru her purse. Finding it after the fifth ring she read the caller ID. It read Queen of Coffee. Smiling she answered it. "Mommy!!" and she let herself fall onto the couch and put a pillow under her head.
Back in stars hollow Lorelei was in lukes eating dinner." Ahh!!! The fruit of my loins, how are you sweets?" she said making faces at Luke who was pointing to the door and the No Cell phones sign. Lorelei stuck her tongue out at Luke who sighed and walked away.
Walking outside Lorelei sat on the steps.
"I miss you, come home. Do you really have to go to that fancy college anyway? I could support you while you write the next great American novel, and if that doesn't work we could sell our house for money and live on Luke's steps while we drink coffee and sing coffee songs, until he starts to feel sorry for us and then he will let us live with him and we could take over the diner and use the diner talk that we did that one time." Lorelei said in one breath. "What do you say?"
Laughing at her mothers crazy ideas, rory sighed. "I miss you too mom, but think of it this way ,if I complete my college education and I become rich , you will never have to work again and then I could buy you a personal coffee assistant so that you will never have to make coffee again, just snap your fingers and Wala instant coffee." Rory said snapping her fingers to make her point even though her mother couldn't see her.
Lorelei shifted her feet and tightened her coat around her waist. "Do I get to pick the coffee assistant?" Lorelei said in a pouty voice.
"Would you have it any other way? Rory smiled.
"No" Lorelei said grinning. "I guess you can stay in school then, you know just to support me "she said standing up and absently wiping her jeans with her hand. She started walking towards the gazebo and sat down on the bench inside. "So what are you doing? I called your apartment but no one answered." Lorelei said crossing her legs and tucking her hair behind her ears.
Rory sat up and walked towards Tristan's fridge, hoping that there was something that she could heat up in the microwave. "Actually I am at Tristan's, I'm spending the night." Rory said as she pulled out a container of food and opened it to make sure that it smelled ok.
"Oh" Lorelei said sitting up straighter. "Why"
"Don't worry" rory smiled knowing what her mother was thinking. "Paris and Carson wanted some privacy for tonight so I said that I would leave them alone and I let them have the apartment to themselves, so I am sleeping her and besides Tristan can cook."
Taking a deep breath Lorelei smiled "well that's good, what is he making for tonight?"
Rory could hear the relief in her mother's voice. "Well he is on a date right now so I am just reheating something that I found in the fridge."
"Did you smell it, to make sure that it's not gross and moldy?"
"Already done." Rory smiled.
"Ok well have fun and lock the doors the city is scary at night. I love you and call me tomorrow ok." Lorelei said walking back towards Luke's.
"Ok, I love you too mom. Bye."
