Chapter Four
What To Do Now?
***Car Ride Home***
Lorelai and Rory were riding home in tense silence until Lorelai couldn't stand it. "Would you mind filling me in on what's
going on between you and Tristan?"
"I would tell you if I had any clue," Rory responded. "I mean, I haven't seen this guy in six years, he shows up, crazy
things are suggested by members of our families such as marriage, we agree to try dating, then he indirectly says he loves
me! Why are guys so confusing?" she moaned.
"If only I knew," Lorelai answered. "If I had them figured out, I wouldn't make so many mistakes in my love life."
"What am I supposed to do?" Rory asked. "I obviously am not feeling the same things he's feeling for me."
"This is a tricky one. Tell me, what exactly ARE you feeling?"
"Well, it's hard to say. I mean, it's been so long..." Rory hedged.
"Oh, come on! You have to give me more to go on than that!" Lorelai exclaimed.
"Well, it seems as though he's grown up somewhat since Chilton. I guess I respect him more than I did before."
"That's all? Respect??" Lorelai looked at her daughter as if she had grown a third head. "Listen, respect is all well and
good, but have you checked out that body?!? The boy is ripped!"
"Okay, okay, I admit it. He's hot. I would have to be blind not to see that."
"Thank God. I was beginning to wonder if you were human. He's so fine I bet guys want him."
"Mom! Don't you find it a bit disturbing that you're gushing over a guy who's sixteen years younger than you?"
Lorelai thought for a moment. "No, not really. Why? Do you find it disturbing that you're attracted to Bible Boy?"
Rory stared at her mother in exasperation. "Admitting that someone is hot hardly constitutes attraction."
"Oh please!" Lorelai scoffed. "You want him and you want him bad."
"If I say I do, will you leave me alone?" Rory asked.
"Temporarily."
"Okay, fine. I want him, I need him, oh baby, oh baby," Rory stated in a monotonous tone.
***Next day at the Gilmore house***
*RING!*RING!*RING!*
"Mom, could you get that?" Rory asked in a muffled voice.
"I'm trying, but I can't find it!" came the reply. *RING!* "Ooh, found it! Hello? Yeah, just a sec."
A few seconds later, Lorelai's head popped around Rory's door. "Ror, your fiancee's on the phone."
"Oh, aren't you funny," Rory remarked in a dry tone.
"So, are you going to talk to him or what?"
"Um, there's a slight problem," Rory answered.
"And that would be...?"
"He's going to ask me out on a date. I just know it."
"I'm not seeing the problem here," Lorelai stated with a confused look on her face. "That's what you agreed on, right?"
"Well, yes, but that was before he confessed how he felt about me. Unless... maybe he was kidding. Do you think he was
kidding?"
"No, Rory, I don't but you'll never know unless you talk to him." Lorelai thrust the phone into Rory's face.
"Hello?"
