Chapter Five: Mother and Daughter fight
Phone Conversation-Lane and Lorelai-12:57 AM.
Lane: She's not home yet?
Lo: No! Do you know where she is?
La: Well, she and Tristan left the party early.
Lo: Rory and who?
La: Tristan
Lo: Do you think.oh my god! She's not even on the pill I bet he didn't even use protection, if she gets pregnant Emily's going to kill me! I thought Rory would know better than that!
La: Lorelai! Chill you know Rory wouldn't do that
Lo: Yes but Tristan would.
La: No, he's a good guy!
Lo: You don't know preppy rich boys and sex like I do Lane!
La: So you mean all rich, preppy guys who attend private school's dreams to be laid by every girl at school?
Lo: Yes
La: Tristan's wouldn't do that
"Bye Tristan!" came Rory's voice floating in from the porch. Rory opened the door and closed it quietly hoping her mother wouldn't awake. She made a beeline for her room when Lorelai confronted her. "Where the hell were you?" she accused. "With Tristan,"
"YOUR GOING ON THE PILL!" shrieked Lorelai. "What? Why?"
"You and Tristan had sex!"
"No, we didn't,"
"Yeah right, don't lie to me Rory!"
"I'm not mother!" she said her tone of voice full of distaste towards her mom. "That's bull shit," was Lorelai's comment. "Why don't you like Tristan?" Rory cried out. "Because he's like all the preppy rich kids who attend Chilton. Just wanting to sleep with every girl in their high school,"
"Tristan's different!"
"I thought Christopher was too and look at me now!"
"What? That you're actually happy? That you don't like in Hartford society mother? You have me?"
"I don't want you to end up like me, throw all your dreams of finishing high school and going to Harvard, do everything I didn't get to do, Rory!"
"Tristan and I aren't like you and dad! We won't do it, for crying out loud I've had the Sex Talk since I could talk!"
"Tristan will get you drunk, he'll seduce you to bed,"
"Not every guy is like that! I've spent my whole fucking life being afraid that every guy who hits on me is just looking for sex and then when I find the perfect guy, your telling me he's looking for the same thing! GUESS WHAT! Tristan loves me and if you even care about my happiness stay the hell out of my life!" she screamed slamming the door to her room in Lorelai's face. "Go to hell!" called out Lorelai. "Back at you!" came her muffled reply. "Fine!"
"Fine!" Rory yelled back as Lorelai stomped up the stairs to her room and slammed her own door shut. "I just wanted to tell you that he gave me my first kiss, Mom," Rory whispered. Both Gilmore's went to sleep crying.
The phone rang and Lorelai groaned. It felt like she had a hangover, which surprised her since all she had drank last night was coffee. As the phone continued to ring the whole evening between her and Rory came rushing back. "Dammit!" she cried out, reaching over and answering the phone. "Hello?"
"Is Rory there?"
"Who's this?" she asked suspiciously. "Tristan," came the male's reply. "Sorry but she can't speak to you or see you for the rest of your life!" and Lorelai hung up the phone. It immediately rang again making Lorelai groan. "I swear to god, Tristan I'm going to kill you,"
"Lor?"
"Christopher?"
"Yeah it's me,"
"How are you?"
"Good, good in Hartford actually,"
"Really? So are you coming here?"
"I was hoping to make some plans with Rory, can I talk to her?"
"Uhh.I don't know where she is," Lorelai began while walking into the kitchen to see a post-it note on the coffee pot. It read:
Out. ~The girl formally known as your daughter.
"Well, the girl formally known as my daughter is out," she said flatly. "Are you two okay?" Chris asked concerned. "No, Chris," she said softly. "We're not, not at all," she said sadly. "What happened?" he asked her. "Well, see there's this guy, Tristan."
Rory's cell phone rang making her jump in surprise. She had been sitting on the wooden bridge wondering how she and her mom had gotten into such a huge fight. "Hello?"
"Rory?" the familiar voice of Tristan made her perk up a bit. "Yeah, Tristan?"
"Did something happen last night?"
"What do you mean?" he sighed and she knew what he meant. "Did you and your mom get into a fight?"
"Yes," she admitted. "Over what,"
"You,"
"Why?"
"She thought we had sex, Tristan," she whispered. "Did you tell her we didn't?"
"Of course but she didn't believe me,"
"Rory."
"Tris, I don't care if my mom hates you, nothing can stop me from being in love with you,"
"Your mom hates me,"
"She'll get over it soon, I hope,"
"Bye Rory, I've got to go,"
"Bye Tris, love you,"
"Love you too," they both hung up and Rory stared into space still trying to figure out why Lorelai was acting like this. She had set the curfew for one so it wasn't like she was late getting home. She sighed disheartened by their argument "Ror?"
"Dad!" she shrieked jumping up and hugging him. "Whoa! I missed you too, kid," Rory smiled at her father until he brought up his reason for coming. "I heard about your fight," he said cautiously. "Your on her side aren't you?"
"No, honey it's just that she had a right to be worried,"
"Dad I wouldn't do that!"
"She's scared because you are sixteen-the same age as we were it's a tough thing for her to watch you fall for the type of guy I was,"
"He loves me though,"
"When you're young and in love you want that love to last forever, most teens think having sex makes it last forever,"
"Dad."
"Just come back and listen to your mother,"
"Fine," she replied and followed her father back to the house.
Ten Minutes had passed by in silence. Both Lorelai and Rory glanced at Christopher, begging him to let them go. "You can't see him anymore," Lorelai whispered. "Why not?" came Rory's cool reply. "Because I don't trust him, Rory! I don't think I could leave the two of you alone without my worrying,"
"That's not fair," Rory pointed out. "Look, I'm sorry but you have to see my side,"
"I see your side perfectly-you don't want me to be happy!" and with that Rory ran, ran out of the house without looking back to see her mother sobbing on the couch. As she drove into Hartford hysterical sobs were rising in her throat. She pulled up to the DuGrey mansion to see his family and himself heading out the door. Rory ran up the steps and reached Tristan. She grabbed his arm and whispered, "I need to talk to you," Tristan glanced at his mother for permission who nodded and he hurried into the house along with Rory. As soon as he took her to the side room and they sat down she slumped down and cried. Tristan pulled her into his arms and soothed her. "What happened?" he asked softly. She told him what happened twenty or so minutes earlier at her house. "Rory, maybe we shouldn't then,"
"Tristan I don't think I could live with that, us-not together,"
"We can still be together but no one would have to know," he mused. Rory nodded in agreement at his idea. "Okay," she said softly letting go of him. "Thank You, Tristan,"
"For what?"
"Being here when I need you," he kissed her quickly before his mother called telling him it was time to go. "I'm fine now," she told him while exiting the mansion.
She returned to find her father had left and Lorelai was staring off into space. "I broke up with him, hope your happy," was all Rory could say. Lorelai was quiet, she wasn't happy not even close because for the first time ever, her baby girl hated her.
