Rory made her into the house, contemplating what just happened.
You just kissed Tristan you idiot! A voice inside her head screamed.
She couldn't conceal her excitement any longer. She squealed very loudly,
that was followed by some loud stomping. A disgruntled and half asleep
Lorelai half fell, half walked down the stairs.
"What--What's wrong?" She asked rubbing her eyes.
"I kissed Tristan!" Rory squealed again, this time grabbing Lorelai's
shoulders and jumping up and down.
"Woah. Slow down there Ms. Gonzales. But you kissed the sweet Tristan
right?" Rory nodded.
"What happens when he turns back into evil Chilton Tristan?" Rory's smile
faded and she stopped jumping up and down.
"You're right. He didn't really like me. I was just another conquest. He
probably takes all of his girlfriends to the mall and to see Willie Wonka."
Rory slid down the wall onto the floor into a pathetic ball. Lorelai realized
what she had done, and slid down next to her.
"Sweetie, I'm not saying that you were another conquest or another notch on
his belt, which you had better not be by the way." That made Rory smile."
But I'm just saying, are ya'll gonna have a relationship within or....
with...out the walls of Chilton. Tristan likes you a lot. Otherwise he
wouldn't have come over here to ask if you could go to his house."
Rory smiled and retired to her room, to have a good night's sleep.

Rory woke up on Saturday morning to the phone ringing. She looked at the
clock and saw that it was already 12:00 PM.
"This had better be good." She warned sleepily into the receiver.
"Uh, Rory. Sorry but did I wake you up?" A deep voice asked.
"Who is this?" She asked.
"Dean." The voice said.
"Oh, hey Dean." Rory rolled her eyes. She hadn't even thought about him
since her date with Tristan.
"I was just wondering if you were free tonight."
"Yeah so..." Rory knew perfectly well what he was trying to do. But it was
fun to make him ask her out.
"Do you want to go out somewhere?"
"Sure what time."
"Around seven, I'll come and pick you up."
"Wait you don't know where my house is."
"Uh, yeah I do."
"How ... wait, how did you get this number?"
But he had already hung up. Rory sighed. She shouldn't really be going out
with Dean if she was in a "relationship" with Tristan. But she decided she
would give it a shot anyway. Besides, there was no backing down now.

Rory pulled on her dark blue jeans, snapped her baby blue T-shirt, and
slipped on her blue Sketchers. She was now pulling her hair into a pony tail
when the doorbell rang. She looked at the clock. It read "7:00". He was
annoyingly on time. Rory wasn't one for much makeup, so she just put on some
lip gloss and ran out into the living room where her mom was already talking
to Dean. She could tell that Lorelai was bored out of her mind.
"Um, ready to go Dean?" She asked, trying not to laugh at Lorelai's almost
asleep face.
"Yeah, goodbye Ms. Gilmore." Dean said, already going out to the car. Rory
was about to say something to her mom, when she pushed her out of the house
and closed the door. This time Rory couldn't hold it in. She started laughing
very hard. She barely made it into his car.
"What's so funny?" Dean asked.
"Nothing, I'm just thinking about something." She told him. She looked at
him and started laughing again. He had funny hair.

He pulled up to the Hartford Movie Theatre and got out of the car and opened
the door for her.
"Oh cool, what are we seeing?" Rory asked hopping out of his car.
"Lord of The Rings. I've already seen it twice, it is SO cool." Dean said,
excitedly. Rory bit her lip, to stifle the groan that wanted to come out. She
had read all of the books and they were okay, and everyone knows that the
books are better than the movies.
"Oh, okay." Rory said as he grabbed her hand and took her into the movie
theater. She excused herself to go to the bathroom, while he got the snacks.
She walked in and looked in the mirror. She laughed when she heard what song
was playing.
If you're tryin to turn me into someone else
It's easy to see I'm not down with that
I'm not nobody's fool.
If you're tryin to turn me into something else
I've seen it enough and I'm over that,
I'm not nobody's fool.
Rory supposed, she was being a fool, going along with Dean's little "date"
plans. She snickered one more time at the cruel irony of the song and joined
Dean, who was waiting at the entrance of the theater for her.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
After many hours "of action packed suspense" Rory had enough. This movie was
too confusing and too dumb. She was about to get up when the credits rolled.
She gave a sigh of relief. She looked over to Dean who was watching the
credit. He caught her gaze.
"Pretty amazing huh?" He asked.
"Look, I'm not nobody's fool." Rory said, and smacked herself on the head
for it. That stupid song had been stuck in her head for the past few hours.
"What?"
"Nuthing, the book was better." She said, trying to talk about something
that she could actually relate to.
"Oh, well I'm not a big reader." He said. Rory gave up and followed him to
his car.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Oh well, I hope to see you again." Dean said, in his car which was now
parked in her driveway.
"Hmm. Yeah, well bye." Rory jumped out of the car and had to restrain
herself from running in the house. That would just be rude. She opened the
door and called for her mom.
"How could you possibly be interested in him? 1)He's too tall 2)He has
floppy hair. 3)He... well he.... he's too tall." Lorelai said as she entered
Rory's room with Rory.
"I don't know. It was weird. I had Avril Lavigne's song "nobody's fool"
stuck in my head the whole time. And I nearly barfed when I thought about
kissing him so I'm pretty sure there won't be a second date."
Lorelai looked relieved.
"Good, at least Tristan made a good first impression. Dean came... ON TIME!"
Lorelai exclaimed. Rory laughed and told her mom goodnight. Tomorrow she
would call Tristan and see if he wanted to have a real relationship with her.
Because she was sure that she wasn't "nobody's fool" around him.
A/N: I already told you where the song is from in the chapter. And.... oh
yeah, review.
