As soon as the bell ended, signaling that school had ended, Rory ran outside. Tristan wasn't anywhere in sight. 'Great' she thought, 'I bet he's off somewhere laughing at me.' Then she spotted him but waited for him to come over to her. Tristan caught sight of her and walked over.
"How about you and me go to get some coffee?" he asked.
"Coffee, you're a god!"
"I never knew you thought of me that way." Tristan replied waggling his eyebrows.
"Don't flatter yourself, LETS GO!" she said.
Tristan led her to his Silver BMW convertiable and opened the door for her.
"Thanks" she said as she climbed in. Tristan went around to the other side and got in. As he drove off they started to talk.
"So what have you been up to?" he asked.
"Well honestly its gonna sound stupid, but pretty much nothing. Sookie got married but you don't know who she is do you. Umm I somehow got myself into being the vice president at school which is still a mystery but Paris persuaded me somehow. My Mom decided not to marry Mr. Medina. Lukes nephew came to town, and there was the whole blowout with him. But you don't know who Luke is either hmm this is tough. Oh yeah and Dean got jealous over Jess and blah blah blah. What about military school though how was it? You know how hells been it hasn't changed."
"Bagboy's got some sort of jealous nature around him doesn't he. Are you two still together?"
Rory hesitated before answering this question, unsure herself about where her relationship with Dean standed. Recently everything had been boring just simply boring and as much as she couldn't admit it she was not really in love with him anymore. She always would love him as a friend but that's all. Whenever he kissed her now she had to hold back wincing. Dean had been jealous of Tristan their sophmore year and now well now he was jealous of Jess. And sure maybe she had liked Jess a little at least for a while but not anymore. She still hadn't told Dean about the kiss though, there wasn't one bit about the kiss that had been told. She contemplated about whether or not to tell Tristan what was really going on, after all that had happened between them.
Tristan noticed the long silence and the pained look on her face and wished that he could take that all away. He wished that he could wrap Rory up in his arms and ward off all pain and suffering. He hoped that Rory wasn't still with Bagboy and that she could be with him, and only him. It killed him to think that she wasn't his, that she was someone else's. He looked her up and down and realized that yes it was confirmed, she was definetly more beautiful then before. Then his eyes fell on her lips and he thought about their kiss at Madelines party and how he would do anything for another kiss, for just one more shot. Ugh he thought as he ran his hand through his messy hair. Then he heard Rory sigh and he looked back up at her.
Rory sighed and spoke, deciding to tell Tristan the truth, "Dean and I umm yea we're still together but I don't know for how much longer. See I had feelings for Jess so Dean got jealous, and then I kissed Jess and Dean doesn't know yet. I don't feel that spark with Dean anymore you know, theres nothing its like someone is trying to light a dead match, the match has burned out. I don't know what to do with him, it can't go on like this though, it isn't healthy for either of us. I like him as a friend but I'm not in love with him." She said in little more then one breath, with a tear sliding down her cheek.
When Tristan heard that she was still with Bagboy his heart plummeted, but then it soared up a bit when she said she didn't know how long it was gonna last, not matter how guilty he was about it. When he looked at her face and saw a tear trickling down it, on impulse he reached over and hugged her. "I'm sorry Rory, you know even though I despise bagboy I'm sorry." He whispered.
Rory hugged him back and said, "Thanks Tristan, thanks, you're a great friend."
Well that's at least something Tristan thought. She likes me as a friend, but soon it will be more, it will be. And then he realized he loved this girl, he was in love with Rory Gilmore, no doubt about it. She would be his. He started to stroke Rory's hair as she cried while they were parked in the coffee places parking lot. For right now though, holding Rory just as a friend he was content.
