Part 12: The Fun Begins.....
"Cop out." "No way. You've used them all up. YOu have to answer." Tristan looked at me and just
said simply "you." end recap "Serious? You've kissed how many girls?" "And how many were just for fun or stupid reasons?" "Wow. Didn't expect that one." "Want to stop now?" "Yeah. I'm bored" I said, grabbing his hand and leading him out of the arcade. I checked my watch and it was 10. "Your parents care when you come back?" "They won't know. I got my own room...my sis was supposed to be with me but she decided she wanted to stay in my parent suite, even though all her stuff's in mine." "Lucky. I'm with just my
mom, with my grandparents in another room and Luke and Jess in the other." "YOu and Jess didn't swing the
same room?" I burst into laughter remembering
our conversation at the airport. "Didn't know I was such a comedian"
he said, giving me an odd look. "No, its just...at the airport
Jess and I talked about how we coudl do that. Long story short, it
involved him in a bikini or a one piece." "I really don't want to know the
long story do I?" I just shook my head. We
reached the door leading to the deck, which Tristan pushed open, and held
out for me. The cold ocean air hit us hard. The sky had clouded
over, revealing only a few stars in the dark sky. "THis is eerily beautiful" I said,
as we started to walk around the deck. "Night is the best time." "Nope. When it snows things
are magical." "How do you figure that?" "Gilmore tradition. Everything
gets better when it snows." "Not a big fan of summer then
huh? Why you on this cruise then?" "Grandparents booked it...family
vacation and since my mom had promised Luke we'd spend with them, they came.
And you?" "Parent's I guess felt bad about
military school, so here I am." "You doing better there?" "HAve I smartened up and gone
back to the Tristan you met you mean." "Yeah pretty much." "Sorta. Miss my freedom
though. Grades are better but its not quite as high a standard of
education as Chilton." We rested into comfortable silence.
I sat down on one of the deck chairs, and Tristan sat opposite me.
I let my eyes roam over him. There was just something about him.
I can't put my finger on it but it's like he oozes this something,
that makes me like him when I shouldn't. "Staring much?" he asked. That set me off remembering Jess
and our conversations. "Wow, can I make you laugh or
what?" "Another Jess thing. THis
time involving you and last night." "Last night? You mean at the club?" "Dinner, you apparently staring
at the top of my head." "Oh yeah...when you refused to
look up." "That would be it. He calls
you staring-boy now." "You people and your nicknames..."
he said, reaching into his pants and pulling out a pack of cigarettes. "Oh god not you to! I swear smoking
is so gross." "Yeah well when you're locked
up with all boys, nothing else available you start to appreciate the addictivness
tobacco." "YOu should quit." He just laughed and slid one out,
popping it into his mouth. He took a light out and lit it quickly.
I simply reached out and snatched it out of his mouth and tossed it
into the ocean. "What are you crazy!" he yelled. "Shoulda told you before. No
smoking around me. You have no idea how many cigarettes I took from
Jess before he could remember." Tristan just shook his head. "The things I do for you..." "It won't go unrewarded" I said,
leaning across and pulling his head towards mine. I placed my lips
on his. At first he pulled back slightly but then got into it. I
let my hands rub the back of his neck while he placed his on my hips, pulling
me closer. I slid my tongue into his mouth, and quickly met his. We
broke apart and I just smiled. Tristan just looked confused. "You so aren't normal Gilmore." "I know. My mommy told me"
I said in a childish voice. Tristan just laughed. "So where exactly does this leave
us?" he asked. "Am I not hte one that's supposed
to ask that?" "Yeah, well usually I'm the one
that starts the kissing but we already saw that was you, so we're breaking
a few rules." "Just wanted to remind you of
your best kiss...I have to let you in on a secret though. Come here"
I said beckoning him with my finger. I leaned in close to his ear and
whispered "You're mine too." "I already knew that" he said,
whispering back, before he kissed me again. This time it deepend quicker
and lasted longer. Behind us came a slight cough and we broke apart.
Tristan glared up and then his face softened slightly. I turned
and saw Jess there. "How'd you escape?" "Luke didn't bother...just yelled." "What did you do?" "I guess he didn't really appreciate
all the mini-bottles missing." "And he went that physco on that?" "Not that physco...just the fact
that your grandparents are paying for the room, and therefore will get that
bill, and if their going to think Luke's an alchoholic..." "Well my mom is a coffee-addict.
They make a very cute couple." "Your mom's a coffee-addict too?"
Tristan asked. I turned back around and nodded.
"Where else would I get it from?" "I just thought you were crazy
with your like 5 cups a day during school. And everyday getting off
the bus with a cup." "Nope, it's a diesease in all
Gilmore Girls, and it can drive people wild" Jess said. "I know...its sad even my grandma
is obsessed with it!!" "I'll see you two later...I've
got some more fun to have" Jess said walking off. In my head I wished
him a silent thank you. "You think he got the silent thanks
we're both sending him right now?" Tristan asked. "Can you read minds?" "Only yours...right now you are...." "Thinking you look really cute
when you are pretending you can read my mind." "I knew you were going to say
that" he said. "This is weird" I thought out
loud. "Why?" "Going from you being so mean
to being so nice and sweet." "Simple words Mary...i didn't
hate you. I have changed. Being in all male company can do that
to a guy." "Well I'm sure glad they let you
out." "Yeah now if I could stay out..." "Well let's enjoy the time you
are out!" I said, grabbing his hand and dragging him down the deck.
