"So Sexy" by munkie

Chapter 5: Your Kissing Pleasure

I awoke in the early hours of morning to the sound of feet coming toward me. Sitting up I rubbed the sleep out of my eyes. A quiet voice came from an unknown direction.

"Tristan? Oh, good you're up."

"Yeah. No thanks to you," I smiled.

"I just… We need to talk." She looked confused as I smirked at her hesitation. I couldn't help it; it's a reflex.

"Okay, talk."

"Umm… Okay, so recently I've been-well I've been having these weird feelings and thoughts."

"Uh huh. What kind of feelings and thoughts?"

"I don't know. Just feelings and thoughts. All I know is that they're not normal."

"Umm… Rory?"

"Yeah?"

"I'm not following."

There was a long pause in which she just stared at me. She looked as if she were trying to make up her mind about something. I couldn't quite figure out her expression. Was she sad? Angry? Happy? I was contemplating this when out of nowhere she leaned down and kissed me. She'd done it again! I was speechless. What was I supposed to say anyway? I glanced up at her and the same confused expression was on her face.

"Hmm… I think that worked."

I finally found my voice. "What worked for what?"

"Kissing you. I needed to get it out of my system. I think it worked."

"When did you have it in your system?" I was slowly starting to function again.

"Oh." She looked surprised that I'd asked that. "Uh… Just since the last time." Then she turned quickly and left mumbling something about how it had definitely worked.

I fell asleep again with a smile on my face.

It's 7 o'clock and I'm already up! It's too early to be up now. I couldn't sleep all night and now the coffee wasn't dripping fast enough. "You evil machine! Go faster!" I was so desperate I was talking to it.

I was going over my insanity in my head when someone came up behind me, turned me around and kissed me. It was a slow and tender kiss. As I tried to deepen the kiss he pulled away. I let out an angry whimper.

"Hey!" I couldn't think of anything witty to say and that's what I came up with! 'You can really tell I haven't had any coffee yet.'

"What? You're allowed to use me for your kissing pleasure but I can't use you?" His smirk was mocking me.

"That's right." 'Nice come back Rory.'

"And you don't find anything wrong with that?"

"Grr…" All I could do was glare at him. 'Damn him and that smirk! Two could play his game.' "You know this means war?"

"I can't believe that bastard did that!"

"Calm down Rory. I'm beginning to think there's something going on between you and Tristan." Lane's amused voice said over the phone.

"I'm just so angry! He makes me so frustrated." I paused. "Wait. What did you say?"

"Calm down Rory?" She was laughing.

"No. After that."

"That I think there's something going on between you and Tristan?" I could hear the mocking in her voice.

"There's nothing going on between Tristan and I." I made sure my voice was firm. 'How could she think such a ridiculous thing?'

"Well you two keep having these incidents where you kiss. Obviously there's something there."

"You're crazy Lane. I just needed to get it out of my system. It was all I could think about. I'm over it now. And he, well, he was just mocking me."

"There is something between you two. Everyone knows it. I think Tristan even knows it. You're just in denial Rory. Just admit you want him and it will be better."

"It's just my damn hormones. Nothing else. Besides I know it's going to get better. I have a plan."

"Whatever Rory." Her tone of voice said she didn't agree but that's okay.

'Tristan you better watch out. Rory Gilmore just went into war mode.'
