I'm going to really skip many months, years and not go into too many details of the lives of these characters, I know that the breakup and all must make you guys really peeved. Please don't hate me! It'll be better soon, just you wait and see...hopefully.

Mike had slept on the floor of Rory's bedroom floor. They had ended up talking about Rory's breakup with Tristan, but also the good times. Soon around 3 a.m. they talked about their dreams and goals. They got personal, and talked out relationships in general and about the future. With one day of conversing with each other, they soon discovered that they had many common interest. They both enjoyed the sweet ambrosia of coffee and their love for books. They listened to similar music such as Green Day and Our Lady Peace. When they finally fell asleep, Rory had for a moment forgotten about her pain of Tristan. She laid near Mike and his warm embrace of friendship sleeping with haunting dreams of the happy pastimes.

The Monday that followed people were whispering about the breakup of the two love birds, Tristan and Rory. It was sudden and strange that Tristan and Rory would break up when it was evident how much in love they were. No one could act so good to pretend to love someone. When the weekend Rory and Mike talked, she suggested that since it's hard to raise a child, with no father, she would go get an abortion. It hurt her that she should take desperate measures, but she knew it was best for her and her unborn child. Even as it was against her morals and values, she didn't want to ruin a life because what she believed in. She asked if Mike could go with her. With the experience, they had bonded closer than ever. He made sure that Rory understood that he was with her 110%. She smiled and been grateful for Mike's support. Without him, she knew, that she would have never made out ok. They agreed to meet up at the Starbucks close to school to get morning coffee and face the halls of Chilton.

People saw that Rory was with Mike. When they first entered the halls, Rory and Tristan made eye contact that was soon broken. Tristan saw that Mike was right beside Rory, with his hand on the back of hers. He felt twig of jealously that he had no right to. It's my fault. She's a great person and friend and deserves to be happy. She has no right to feel this pain that I have caused her, and if it had to be anyone else, I couldn't have chosen a better person for her than Mike. Just hope that he doesn't hurt her. Tristan, though hurt, accepted that Rory had to move on with her life. It killed his heart that the smiles that she put on were not for him, but rather at Mike's comments. Tristan saw that girls were storming around him asking questions of Rory, and he shrugged off not wanted to let others know of his pain. He smiled and girls forgot their questions. He stared into the faces of Rory and Mike and in their oblivious state that they were being watched.

Everyone did not know the whole story other than Tristan, and the true reasons why he broke up with Rory. Mike and Tristan did still talked, but it seemed more distanced than usual. Even with the lack of communication, they still considered each other best friends. Although Mike didn't not get any reasons from Tristan about the abrupt break up, he knew that there was a good reason. He knew that Tristan still loved Rory, but whatever those reasons were, he respected them, and did not question it.

A month, Rory and Mike went on their first date. They had went to see a movie, and Tristan was at the very back of the theater watching their first date. Tristan knew it was inevitable that Rory would date soon, but he didn't expect the pain that came along with that. Tristan still hurt, did not date any girl. Girls didn't know why, and Tristan just focused his attention on his studies. He tried to forget his pain and of Rory, seeing her being with someone other than himself.

Months later, Rory and Mike were in love. It just happened. She knew that love didn't only happen once, it can happen several times. She did and always will love Tristan very much, but that time was over. This time, Mike gave her light happiness of easy, sweet love, while Tristan was passionate and all consuming. It wasn't necessarily bad, but it was different. When graduation rolled around, Mike and Rory decided to marry early. They would continue their education; however, they couldn't explain why they wanted to get marry early, but Mike was so in love with Rory, like other's before him had, that he wanted to be with her in anyway. Still somewhat betrayed by Tristan's breakup, she had accepted. Yes, it was in the beginning dating Mike was rebound, but she had slowly fell in love with Mike. He showed her so many things. Love can be fun, sweet and light, and there was no such things that love had time limit. That her pain was his pain. They share so many common interests, hopes and dreams, that it was so easy to fall in love. No complications. Tristan had received an invitation from Mike's side, after graduation of Chilton to the marriage of Michael Thomas McKnightly and Lorelai Leigh Gilmore's nuptial. Tristan fall to the bed and cried at his loss of one true love.

Wedding would be simple. They were only two eighteen and soon to be nineteen years old in love. It was sweet and simple wedding that Lorelai had helped the McKnightlys family. The McKnightly's fell in love with Rory and her mother and accepted them into their family. Although it would be a simple wedding, many of their families, friends and selected Chiltonites were invited, it had closed to ranged around 200 people.

Tristan's father was disappointed and worried that Tristan didn't seem to be dating any debutants. With the upcoming wedding of McKnightly's and Gilmores' he wanted Tristan to have a date that was respectable to the society's circle. So thus he confronted his own son. "Tristan, Gilmore girl has moved on. So should you. Bring a respectable date to their wedding. Understood?" He asked. Tristan sometimes didn't get what his father thought. Why was it important to bring a "respectably" date? So instead of standing and talking to his father, who had caused him his ultimate loss, he replied harshly, "I did what you wanted me to do, that I didn't want to. I have obeyed you. Don't ask me more of me." With that, he stormed out of the house and took a ride aimlessly around Hartford.

Reminders, it is short chapters for now. I will be skipping months and years, and I do not care to continue a story with 20 chapters etc, I will conclude it soon. So use that delightful imagination of yours and use it, while I provide the backbone of this story. Just to tell you the ending has been inside of my head for like a year, so if it seems to be similar to other stories, it was my idea, and not copied. Sorry, this chapter was a filler for the next chapter or so, I hope you guys liked it. Next chapter isn't about the wedding, but rather about 5 years later. That way we will have Trory back on sooner. Don't you want that????
