Disclaimer: Tired of writing this so. this one is good for the rest! I do not own anything except for this plot.
A/N: Once again thank-you to everyone who reviewed I love you guys so much!!!! I hope you guys are happy with the story. If not tell me.
~*~*~*~*~*~* Crap-shack next morning
Rory awoke the next morning to blinding rays of sunshine that penetrated her bedroom window. Since she had failed miserably at any and all attempts to fall back into her sweet slumber, she decided to leave her very comfortable bed and get up.
She threw on her robe and made her way to the kitchen where she immediately began making coffee. While she awaited her elixir she sat at the kitchen table and began to flip through a magazine, until she heard her mother coming down the stairs.
"Hey sweets! Didn't hear you come in last night." Lorelai exclaimed to a smiling Rory.
" Maybe that's because when I came home you were already asleep!" Rory teased.
" Nonsense.Anyways come on don't keep me waiting! What happened last night?" Lorelai asked while pouring two cups of coffee.
" Coffee first then I talk."
Lorelai handed Rory the cup of coffee and sat down at table. Five minutes later Rory had finished her cup and was now ready to tell her mom the previous nights events.
" Okay, well, the evening started with us going to our spot " she began.
" Ooohhhh a secret spot! Did you do dirty things?"
" Be good or I won't tell about the kiss." Rory smiled knowing this would make her mom shut-up.
"There was a kiss? How could you not wait me up to tell? Well come on spit it out!" A hysterical Lorelai exclaimed.
"Well I was going to get to the kiss until you interrupted me! "
She got up from the table and made her way to her room where she turned on her cd player. She then stuck her head outside her door and simply said:
" I'm really not in the mood to talk about it."
She stuck her head back in her room, knowing that any second now Lorelai would barge into her room mumbling about how mean she was being to the women that gave birth to her.
* 1,2,3---*
Lorelai at that exact second burst into the room.
"You do realize that you are being very mean to the person that gave birth to you"
Rory fought to hold back a laugh.
"What's so funny?" Lorelai asked.
" Nothing"
"Are you done making me suffer or are you not going to tell me about the kiss you and that Greek Adonis had?" Lorelai pleaded.
"Hmmm, I guess I'll tell you, I mean I need to tell somebody right? "
" And believe me sweetie I am the right person for that. Okay so what happened after you got there?" Lorelai asked while sitting on the bed.
"Well we had supper, a very special supper might I add."
" Burgers and coffee?" Lorelai asked while gesturing for Rory to come sit with her on the bed.
"Yup, anyways, well, somewhere during supper we both admitted that we loved each other and then we kissed." A very love-struck Rory said.
" Aw, honey I'm so happy for you!" Lorelai shrieked.
" So is it safe to say that Tristan is now officially your man?"
"Well, I'm not sure, I mean we haven't really talked about that."
" How come, you mean neither of you brought up the subjet? " Lorelai asked.
"We kind of weren't thinking about that at the moment and even if we were we didn't really have time to discuss it." A very embarrassed Rory replied.
" No need to explain, I completely understand."
Rory just gave her mother a small smile. She hadn't even thought about that. She had just assumed that they were going out but now that her mother had brought up the whole official thing she wasn't so sure anymore.
Lorelai seeing her daughter's worried face came up with an idea.
"You know what? I think after breakfast well lunch (noticing that the clock was pointing to the twelve) you should call Bible Boy and invite him over or something."
"Weren't we supposed to hang-out? I mean we haven't been seeing a lot of each other this past month." Rory said knowing that it was pretty much her fault.
She had spent almost every single waking hour with Tristan. She was feeling extremely guilty. Lorelai knowing how much Rory really wanted to see Tristan but was only sacrificing her happiness because of unwanted guilt, came up with a little white lie.
"I know sweetie but I promised Michel that I would come in today, sorry."
"Can't you get out of it?" Rory asked.
"I would love to but I promised him he could have the day off. A promise is a promise."
"I guess. I'll call Tristan then. I mean we did have plans to do our homework together. I mean I was going to call him to cancel but I guess since you can't I'll call him. Umm mom?
" Ya sweets?"
" Just because we didn't determine if we were going out or not doesn't mean things should be weird between us right?" Rory asked.
" Right " Lorelai said while smiling at how in love her daughter seemed to be.
"What are you smiling at?"
" Oh nothing, just can't wait to have Luke's miracle drug."
"So what are we waiting for?"
And with that the Gilmore's grabbed their coats and were out the door in a heartbeat.
~*~*~*~* LUKE'S 30 MINUTES LATER..
"So are you going to call Tristan? "Lorelai asked while taking a sip of her coffee.
"Ya, when I get home." Rory replied. * Can't wait to see him*
"I really should get going." Looking at her watch" Have fun."
"I will, bye!"
~*~*~*~* OUTSIDE
As soon as Lorelai left, she headed straight towards Sookie's where she prayed she would be able to spend the day.
~*~*~* BACK INSIDE LUKE'S
Rory got up, paid the bill and made her way home. When she entered her home, she removed her coat while picking up the phone and dialed the familiar number
* I hope this isn't weird. We really need to talk. *
CUT/INT: Rory and Tristan
Tristan: Hello?
Rory: Hey you! (She said in her cheery voice)
* Oh god what am I going to say to her? I haven't come up with that part yet. *
Tristan: Hey (a little uneasy)
Rory: So what's up?
Tristan: Well you know, same old same old.
Rory: Hmm, so at what time are you coming over at?
Tristan: What?
Rory: Tris, it's Sunday, hello? We have a study date! You supply the coffee? Remember?
Tristan: Oh ya, sorry I forgot. (Lying)
Rory: It's ok so what time? (Feeling a little hurt)
Tristan: What time what? (He couldn't believe what a jerk he was being. He heard the hurt in her voice.)
Rory: Are you coming at? (Getting annoyed and worried) * Why is he acting like this? *
Tristan: Well since I forgot I kind of made other plans.
Rory: With who? * Not that it's my business*
Tristan: With Austin and Ryan (at least he wasn't lying about that. He really was going to see them)
Rory: Well at what time are you finishing with them? I really want to see you. * Great it sounds like I'm begging now*
Tristan: I don't know exactly, listen maybe we'll see each other tomorrow (sounding a little cold and mean. He was getting upset at the situation not at her)
Rory: Oh ok well I guess it's no problem. (A tear rolled down her cheek)
Tristan: I'm really sorry! (His heart was breaking hearing her trying to conceal her sobs)
Rory: Hey don't worry about it. I guess I can't have you all to myself now can I? Anyways, I'll let you go. Bye Tristan.
Tristan: Bye.
He hung up not believing his actions. He did want Rory to have him all to herself. It's just he needed to take care of this Lucy problem so that he would be able to be with the women of his dreams, Rory. And for that to happen they would have to hold off going out with each other for a while. I t was killing him inside.
* Damn you dad *
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
As soon as Rory hung up the phone she began to cry. Why? She felt confused, and betrayed by her best friend.
* I'm such a whoos, look at me I'm crying over the fact that Tristan is spending time with someone else. God get it together Rory! I'm sure everything is fine between us*
~*~*~* 2 HOURS LATER
Tristan had just finished explaining the situation to his two closest friends, Austin and Ryan. Tristan had become best of friends with Austin after Summer had dumped both of them. They kind of had a " We hate summer club!" As for Ryan, well he was new at Chilton but everybody took to him right away. He was just somebody you trusted only after a couple of minutes. He also kept them from getting into trouble, meaning he acted like their conscience.
Both guys couldn't believe what was happening to their best friend. Of coarse they knew of fathers that did cruel things to their sons. Hell their own father's had had their " evil" moments.
Ryan was the first to speak.
" You got to tell her man. I'm sure she'll understand."
" Listen knowing Rory she probably would want to help me with this. That's the way she is. Putting everyone before her. But I also know that it would kill her inside. She might put up a tuff front but when it comes to the heart she's so fragile. I can't and won't put her through all that pain. Believe me this is the only way." Tristan answered.
" T, man, you know that I'm always there to back you up but I think Ry's right." Austin started. "Don't you think that this pushing her away until then thing won't hurt her?"
" You said it yourself she cried just listening to your uneasy voice, imagine what will happen when you guys are face to face? I mean you guys are going to have to talk about last night eventually." Ryan added.
" What are you going to say when she says that she loves you?" Austin asked.
They both saw Tristan's tear filled eyes. They knew he was going through hell. He finally had the girl of his dreams and he knew he might lose her now.
" Listen. You know we'll do everything you ask us to but I hate to break it to you, if you don't find a way to handle the whole delaying going out with Rory thing without pushing her away. This plan will tear the both of you apart. " Ryan said.
" Don't you think I know all this? That's why this plan has to work!" Tristan desperately yelled.
" Just tell us exactly what you need." Both said.
~*~*~*~ BACK AT THE CRAP SHACK
Rory had been doing homework for two hours now, well had been trying to do her homework. Thoughts of how cold and uneasy Tristan's voice sounded haunted her.
* Relax! I'm sure it's nothing. He was probably. arguing with his parents again. Ya that's it, he was arguing! His mood had nothing to do with me. Hopefully.. This is crazy, just call him and see what happens maybe he calmed down and is feeling really bad about the way he treated you and is too ashamed to call. That's it I'll call! *
She forced herself to dial his number even though her hand was shaking with fear about what might happen.
~*~*~*~ AUSTIN'S HOUSE
" Hey man your phone is ringing" Austin said disrupting Tristan's thoughts. Tristan grabbed his phone from her pocket and answered it.
CUT/INT: RORY AND TRISTAN
Tristan: Dugray.
Rory: Wow! What happened to sex god? (Rory laughed)
Tristan: (he couldn't help but chuckle a bit) Oh long story, it has something to do with a bet that a made with this insane girl two days ago and lost.
Rory: * maybe he's back* Insane you say? (A smirk on her face)
Tristan: Okay how does mentally irregular sound?
Rory: Like someone wants to get beaten' up! (She joked)
Tristan: Ok, ok I get it! (Man it felt good to be able to talk they always did, and he was in no way breaking his plan, he was allowed to still be friends with her he just couldn't go out with her ---- yet.) So what can I do for you Gilmore?
Rory: Well . (she hesitated) * Maybe I shouldn't bring it up he sounds fine now*
Tristan: Well what?
Rory: I just wanted to know if you were better than this morning? (She said in a sincere voice)
Tristan: What do you mean?
Rory: Tris come one you were acting weird.
Tristan: Ya sorry about that I had a fight with me dad last night, it just really shook me up.
Rory: Wanna talk about it?
Tristan: No not this time it's too complicated.
Rory: Well if you change your mind you know I'll always be here right?
Tristan: I know, thanks.
Rory: So are you still with Austin and Ry?
Tristan: Actually I am.
Rory: Oh sorry I didn't mean to interrupt you guys.
Tristan: Aw don't apologize you're not interrupting us. We're just hanging out. * I'd rather be with you *
Rory: That's good (she was still a little upset that he was spending time with someone else on the day that they were supposed to hang out.) Well I'll let you go then.
Tristan: Okay (he was feeling terrible)
Deciding that she needed to make sure that things hadn't changed between them.
Rory: Tristan? (In a voice barely above a whisper)
Tristan: Ya? (He gulped hearing her voice)
Rory: I love you.
Panic was building inside of him. What was he going to say?
