~*~*~*Recap*~*~*~

He shut her up the only way he knew how to. He kissed her hard, with all his might, love, sorrow; everything he had was in his kiss. "Dean will pay for what he did to us, sleep now." She yawned, obviously tired from the loss and from crying. Not to mention the kiss, proving to her that baby or no baby he would be there.

She drifted into a light sleep, snuggling into Tristan's arms.

~*~*~*Present*~*~*~

Lorelai was looking at Tristan as he slowly got out of the bed. There was pain and anger in his clouded eyes.

"Tristan, don't do anything irrational." Lorelai warned.

"I'm not going to seen Dean, I'm going to see Jess." Tristan had meet Jess through Rory and coffee. They realized that they had a lot in common. Jess knew about Rory's baby, Tristan's baby.

The bell rang as Tristan walked through the door. "He's upstairs." Luke grunted.

"Thanks, Luke." Tristan jogged up the stairs not waiting for the 'whatever' that came from Luke.

Tristan rapped on the door, waiting for Jess to open it. 'Com'on Jess'.

"What?" Came Jess's dry reply before he saw who was there. "Oh hey, T." They did that male handshake thing. "What's up?" 'Damn it looks pissed, wonder what's wrong.'

"Dude, Rory miscarried." He said it quickly wanting to tell Jess before he lost his nerve.

"What?! How!?" 'If someone did this to her, they'll pay. DAMNIT she was so happy, she glowed. FUCK' Jess had an enraged face on.

"She miscarried, fell down some stairs. Actually she was pushed, by a certain bag boy and ex-jealous-boyfriend." Tristan stately matter-of- factly. Hurt showed all over his face, his eyes, mouth, everything.

Jess on the other hand had hurt hidden by rage. "WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!?!?! No wonder why you look hurt" As he said that the hurt was buried and anger replaced it. "And now you look like you wanna kick some ass. Am I right or am I right? Com'on I'm more than willing to help you. He'll pay. How's Rory holding up?"

"Terribly, damnit Jess, this was her first child. She was so happy before this afternoon. So where's bag boy, I have some business to take care of." His frown turned into a twisted smirk.

"He's working, shall we go?" His smirk matched Tristan's. "Uncle Luke we're going out for a while."

"Fine stay outa trouble." He grunted.

"Yes Sir," Tristan saluted him.

They exited the diner and confidently strutted to the market across the street and then to the bean isle, where Dean just so happened to be stocking the Bean shelf.

"Look Jess, Bean's working the Bean isle." Tristan said with the fakest smile ever.

"Wow how perfect, T." Jess had an almost equal smile on his usually not smiling face.

"Sorry your on the wrong isle, Triscuts on isle 4."

"Ooohhh good comeback. Bean may we talk to you out back." Tristan wanted to get to the part where he gets to beat Dean down.

"I'm going on break." Dean shouted to know one in particular. "Follow me." He led them to the door, and into an alley.

Luke, who was refilling Kirk's coffee, saw all three boys go back to an alley. 'Shit their gonna kick his ass.'

"That's enough Luke, Luke that's enough coffee. OWWWW." Luke's head snapped up to look at Kirk who was trying to cool himself down, for Kirk's coffee had overflowed onto his lap.

"Sorry" Luke mumbled.

In The Alley

"So Dean, we heard that you pushed Rory down some stairs. True, isn't it?" Jess questioned.

"Yea" Dean replied without hesitation. Tristan rolled his hands into fists and took over.

"Do you know what you did to her. She miscarried, you fucker." Tristan moved closer to Dean.

"Well that's good, isn't it?" He didn't miss the fire of anger that shot in Tristan's eyes. "She can still go to Harvard and have a normal life than marry me and we won't have to worry about your son of a bitch kid!" That threw Tristan and Jess over the breaking point.

Tristan launched himself at Dean and his left fist into Dean's face. Jess on the other hand, wanted Tristan to beat Dean into the ground, and clearly Tristan had the advantage at the moment. But if things got a little to out of hand he knew he wouldn't be able to stop this on his own. A right hook into Dean's stomach. "Damnit" Jess cursed. Now it was just getting outa control, and Tristan started to tired after Dean hit him once. Jess hurried to Luke's to get his Uncles help. When he got there all he could do was try and catch his breath while getting across what he had to say. "Uncle Luke...Dean.Tristan....kicking the sit out of each other. help now!"

Before he could finish he and Luke were already on their way to the alley. Both teens had bruises and blood on them. Luke rushed over to Dean how was on top of Tristan at the moment and grabbed him, picking him up off Tristan.

"Hey Break it up" Luke shouted. Jess grabbed Tristan and held him til he regained composure, while Dean on the other hand was fighting to get out of Luke's hold and start on Tristan again. Still Dean didn't stop so Luke went to the last result. He put Dean in a headlock. "Mind telling me why you two look like you were going to fight to the death in an old renaissance movie?"

Tristan checked his bloodstained lip. "I'm just simply defending me and Rory. Oh yea by the way Luke, she's at Hartford hospital right now because this jackass," he nodded his head in Dean's direction. "pushed her down some stairs, therefore causing her to miscarry. Which, might I add, was all part of his plan to get her back, be rid of me and my, and I quote, 'Son of a Bitch kid'."

"WHAT?!?!?!?! She miscarried.!?!?" Luke screamed. "And all because of what HE" Luke grabbed Dean by the collar of his shirt, "Did!?!?"

'Ok since when am I the brains here?' Jess thought, 'this is going to get outa hand very fast.' "Yea let's go. We'll finish this later. Let's go see Rory and Lorelai." Luke blushed letting Dean go.

"Oh yea, Dean?" He turned around, and Tristan continued, "Don't you even think about coming to the hospital to see Rory."

Dean took this as a challenge. "And if I do...."

Tristan smirked, looking at Dean. Dean was so much more beat up then Tristan was. "You'll regret it."

"Oh great the accountant is threatening me."

"Sarcasm was never your strong point, Bean. Which reminds me don't you have a sale on flour today you never answered which one would make my cakes fluffier."

"Fuck you." Dean left the alley and went back to work.

Luke looked pissed. "First, I told you two to stay outa trouble, but I'll forgive it due to the circumstances. Let's go. I wanna see Rory. But I have to go close the dinner."

"I'm gonna go in my car I'll see you guys there." Tristan needed to see Rory.

"Ok see ya in a while man." Jess slapped Tristan on the back. "Hang in there."
