A/N: Hey Dudes, sorry bout the whole lack of updates (not my falt, I
swear!) I hope u like this chapter. And check out my new story:
Conquences and love.
As the days grew shorter until the return to school, Tristan grew healthier. Of coarse Rory and Lorelai were cautious to say the least. Yes, coffee and rest from Lorelai, and coffee, making out, and rest from Rory, not to mention the insestiant Gilmore way. School was only a day away,. Senior year, it seemed to Rory that it was yesterday that she was the 'new girl' at Chilton. She never would have guessed that she would be happy to go back. But with that happiness, there was also doubt. She couldn't help but wonder if things would change between her and Tristan. Already, they were so close, she just prayed that nothing would come between them.
"Rory? Are you ok?" his eyes were full of concern for her as he raked a hand through his hair.
"hum? Ah, yeah Tristan. Sorry bout that, I was off in my own little world."
"what were you thinking about?" he put his arm arm around her, and let her lean into him.
"tommorow, when we go back, will it be different?" she said while bitting her bottom lip.
"will what be different?" his brow drew in confusion.
"Us. Will we change? Will our relation ship change?" she stood up and started pacing back and forth in front of him.
He stood up, and grabbed her shoulders. " Rory, don't worry. No matter what, we'll be together, and that's forever. No amount of change can change that. It can't change the way I feel, therefore, it can't change me, and no one on this earth can change you, if there is, I'd like to meet him"
"but what if….." she pulled a hand through her hair again.
He just silenced her before she could finish her thoughts. "no what if's. all we have to worry about is here and now. And right now, I want to hold you." He lead her back over to the swing, and pulled her onto his lap, and just held her.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
" Come on Rory, we're going to be late!" Tristan yelled to her from the open door.
"I'm Coming!" She came barreling down the stairs, ran into the kitchen, kissed her mother, and put half of her mothers bagle in her mouth."
"Hey!" Lorelai shouted, while trying to grab it back.
"Deal with it!" she said grabbing her bag and running out the door.
The ride to Chilton was mostly in slience, except for the usual 'are you excited?' or ' I can't believe the summers over' after about 30 minutes of driving, they pulled into the student parking lot. When they got out of the car, there were many curious looks there way.
"Hi Tristan! I can't believe you'r back!" a saltery blond came up to the couple, and stood on her toes to give him a hug.
"hello Trisha." He said this as she ran her hand up his thigh. He shook it off, and said "you've met my girlfriend Rory right?" she looked at Rory, as if she had fire in her eyes, and Rory just simply returned the look, because she too saw her hand on Tristan's thigh. She steped in front of Tristan, and gave him a hot passionate kiss, that had them both gasping for air, and it sent tingles down both their spines. A feeling that hadn't seemed to fade. When they turned back to the blond, she was gone.
"that should teach her not to touch you." She smiled up at him.
" if it means you kissing me like that, then wouldn't mind if…..Ouch!" he said as he rubbed his arm where she just pinched.
"you just watch yourself buddy" they started to walk to their lockers.
"I was just kidding!" he smiled, and grabbed her hand when they reached her locker. " I got to go, my locker is like a mile away! The bells going to go any minute, bye." He leaned down, and kissed her lightly.
"see ya Tristan!" she yelled at his retreating back.
The day went fairly well for both of them so far. The occasional questions about their relationship, but nothing major. They discovered that they had 4 out of 5 classes together. It wasn't until the last one, that turned Rory's day sour.
"I enjoyed your display this morning" Rory whipped around at the icy voice from behind her, but there was really no need, because she regonized it right away.
"oh, I liked it to Paris, now, if you'll move over there, maybe I can see the board." She was looking straight up at her.
"you think your so special,, don't you?" it was more a statement, than a question. "well, I've got news for you Rory, your not, your not one of us, no one likes you, you don't belong here with us." She saw hurt in Rory's eyes, and continued on. " look at you, we're rich, and our parents are decent, and your poor, and your mother works at an inn for God sakes!" she smirked as Rory got up, and ran from the class. 'she'll think twice next time when she's messing around with my man'
When Rory was running, she didn't notice the figure at the water fountain, and ran right into him. With a loud thud, she fell to the floor.
"Rory? Are you alright? Did you get hurt? Why were you running? Oh my God, why are you crying?" Tristan crouched down and just held her, until the tears subsided into a small whimper. "do you want to tell me what happened?" she just nodded into his shoulder, and told him the whole story. Tristan listened to the whole thing, not liking it at all. He was going to have to talk to Paris, and soon. The bell rang, and they both got up off the floor. "you go get your stuff, I'll meet you at the car, I've got something to do." He kissed her forehead, and walked off.
He found her at he locker, surrounded but Madline and Louis. "Paris!" he boomed. She turned around to face him, she wasn't frightened, but intimated a bit. "what's wrong with you? Don't you have a heart? What am I saying? You're the ice queen, of coarse you don't have a heart. What I do want to know is if you think that you can say those things to Rory and get away with it? Because let me tell you, she is better than everyone in this whole place, and she belongs more that anyone else, you had no right, and you will be sorry!" he turned to walk away, but stopped. "oh, Paris, another thing, it would take 1,000 of your mother to equal out the love hat Lorelai has for Rory, and everyone that she knows. She may run an inn, but at least there's love, and not some shell of a relation ship that you have with your mother. This time when he turned, he left the whole hall gapping at his back.
He went to meet Rory, and they left for their journey home.
