"Oh..."

"tristan, did you date other people while you were gone?" he looked away

"you did..."

"my parents set me up against my will... did you?"

"Yeah... but I had to because the whole town was feeling bad for me- but I didnt sleep with any of them"

"oh.."

LATER THAT NIGHT.. RORYS DATE

They walked around the park after the movie talking about the music and movies. He leaned in to kiss her and caught her off guard, she tried to kiss back, but there wasnt any spark.

"can we not do this?"

"come on.. its early" he pushed himself on her

"No.. get off"

"No, I want this, and I know you want me too"

"No I dont. stop"

"shut up!" he covered her mouth and lifted her skirt up.. she struggled

"I said shut up!" he pulled her panties down and un buckled his belt and jeans- and sliped them down.

Rory kept struggling. He started to push his way into her, the excitment getting him off fast. he thrusted harder and harder and she felt him cum.

"if you tell anyone about this, you'll be sorry" he hit her across the head and left her unconscious.

TRISTANS ROOM

"hello" he answered the phone grogily

"Mr. DuGrey? Im calling about Lorelai Leigh Gilmore"

"Rory?"

"Yes, shes in the hospital and we could only find your number on her"

"I'll be right there"

HOSPITAL

Tristan ran to the nurses station

"Rory Gilmore?"

"Are you family"

"you called me"

"right this way"

"what happened"

"she was raped"

"Oh my god.." he started crying.. "is she okay?"

"yes, shes fine.. Techically she was raped, but her hymen wasnt broken"

"so shes okay"

"yes"

"can I see her?"

"sure"

Rory was asleep on her bed when he walked in. Lorelai, her mom was having problems getting there, and was frantic, so she put tristan incharge of rory. Tristan fell asleep by her bed

Rory woke up and saw tristan asleep and scared. She reached to her neck and felt around for her neckalace, but it wasnt there. She started to whimper, then she saw it had dropped by her sheets, she fastened it back around her neck.

NEXT DAY

Tristan had brought Rory some coffee to wake her up a but and found her rubbing her head

"you okay"

"Yeah-"

"Can you remember anything?"

"not really, I mean I know what happend to me.. and I FEEL what happened to me, but I dont remember it"

"maybe its a good thing"

"maybe"

Tristan loaded her up in his car and drove them home. Rory walked in his apartment and fell asleep on his couch. about two hours passed when he heard screaming.

"No.. NOOO get off, get off"

"rory?" tristan lept off the chair and ran to her " baby wake up"

"tristan?" she woke up with tears running down her face

"Its okay..Im here"

"I was so scared"

"Hey.. its okay.. I wont go anywhere"

"you wont leave me again?"

"No baby.. im here for good" rory fell asleep against him

NEXT DAY

Rory woke up first, then Tristan. They sat there in an uncomfortable silence

"so.. what are you doing today?" Tristan asked

"Lane and mea are going to a karaoke bar"

"Hey, thats where me and henry are going"

"uh oh.. they're going to make out all night"

"oh god"

"well I gotta go.. I need to get ready"

"See you tonight"

Rory had to get ready fast- she and Lane were going at 6:00, and it was 2:00. All too soon, 6 came and so did a knock on her door.

"comming!" she opened the door

"Hey Lane"

"Hey rory, you ready?"
