Chapter 5
It was 7th period and Hannah had yet to see Tristan. She was sitting in study hall hoping Tristan would walk in the room. Rory, Madeline and Louise were in the class with her. But when the bell rang and no Tristan she would just have to wait another 53 minutes to tell him her brilliant plan.
"See you later guys." Hannah said when the final bell of the day rang. They left the room and all went their separate ways. Hannah put the remainder of her books in her locker. She went out to the parking lot to wait for Tristan. He showed up about 5 minutes later.
"Hey how was your day?" Tristan asked Hannah.
"It was good, yours?"
"Awesome." He said smiling.
"Well I have a plan." Hannah said opening the door to Tristan's red Mercedes Benz LX. When the were settled in Tristan anxiously asked what her plan was.
"Okay I'm gonna give you my Lifehouse tickets, and you are gonna ask Rory, NICELY." Hannah told Tristan remembering the whole PJ Harvey fiasco he went through.
"Your Lifehouse tickets are you serious? Hannah your obsessed with them, and besides how do you know she want's to go?"
" She told today during homeroom and besides I've seen them 3 times, and my grandparents are coming back from Paris."
"Oh a whole night of boring stories, lucky you!"
"Yeah right." She said. About 10 minutes later they arrived in front of Hannah's huge house.
"Is your dad home?"
"Are you serious? I think he has purposely picked the longest hours at the hospital."
"Do you want me to come in and we can chill for awhile?"
"Nah, that's okay." She said opening the door. "I'll see ya tomorrow."
"Yeah and thanks Hannah."
"No prob, just remember…"
"Ask nicely."
"Later." She said getting out of the car. She made her way up the driveway and opened the door. She slipped inside and threw her backpack on the floor. She flopped on the living room couch and turned on the TV.
***************** In Stars Hollow**************
Rory got off the bus to see Lane waiting for her with a cup of Luke's coffee.
"Hey Rory, how was your day." Lane asked handing Rory a cup of coffee.
"Suprisingly great!"
"Well that awesome, but I gotta head home, my mom wants me home at 4:00 on the dot."
"Okay I'll call you later." Rory said giving Lane a hug.
"All right bye."
Lane walked away and Rory made her way home. She opened the door and set her backpack on the ground. She made her way to the living room pressing the play button her answering machine.
"Hey honey its me, look I have to go too Hartford with Sookie for some kitchen supplied. I'll be home around 7:30. Meet you at Luke's. Love ya bye."
Rory made her way through the kitchen to her room. She laid down on her bed and closed her eyes. She slowly fell into sleep.
************************Tristan's House************
Tristan stood in front of the mirror in his room practicing what he was going to say too Rory.
"Hey Rory, look I know were not exactly good friends and the last time I asked you to a concert it ended badly but I have Lifehouse tickets well their Hannah's but she gave them to me and………. God I'm and idiot." Tristan said. " I cant do this." He said outloud laying down on his bed. He sighed loudly.
"She's never going to go with me, why do I bother?" Tristan asked himself. "Because you love her that's why, and she hates you. Good going Dugrey."
Tristan was not in the mood to have an arguing match with himself. He knew Hannah meant well but he just couldn't do this. He picked up the phone from his dresser. He dialed Hannah's number.
"Hello Mitchell residence how may I help you?" Hannah's butler Niles asked.
"Yes may I speak to Hannah."
"One moment sir." Niles told Tristan setting down the phone. A few minutes later Hannah picked up the phone.
"Yeah?" She asked.
"I cant do this, I cant ask her."
"What, why?" Hannah asked.
"I…….. I don't know."
