Chapter 2: The Coincidence
Rory then got to her apartment and settled into her place as if she had never left. Starting with turning on the radio and getting her dinner ready. Doing her normal routine. When she was about to take a bite out of her hamburger helper, she remembers that she didn't check her answering machine. So before starting her meal she pressed the 'listen' button on her machine. "One message" the machine said. Then the message played "Rory, it's the office; I guess I just missed you. I wanted to inform you that you have a partner for the next few cases. You will meet him Monday. Have a great vacation." BEEP!
"That's just great, knowing my luck; it will be a nerdy guy with glasses. I can't wait.'' Rory said with a disappointed look. ''Why do I get stuck with the new one?" She said before finishing dinner.
Rory then got ready for work the next day and for bed. ''I am not going to stress about it.'' She said just after she laid her head onto her pillow. Then fell into a fast sleep.
During the night she had a dream. Rory had dreamt about Tristan. She saw Tristan and herself going out on a date. It was a nice romantic dinner, with candles and music. Then saw the two of them sharing a kiss. Then she saw herself crying about something that a doctor told her.
When she woke up, she was all sweaty. The dream was, very sweet until the last part.She didn't know why she was so sweaty, she liked Tristan but did she have feelings for him. Or maybe she was afraid of the fact that something could be wrong. She didn't know.
She looked over at her alarm clock which said 6:30. She didn't want to go back to sleep, plus she had a lot to do before she left at 7:30.
She was ready and in her car by 7:29. She wanted to get coffee before being at the firm at 8. So, she went to the cafe got a coffee to go and was on her way to work.
When she stepped foot in the lobby, her boss was already looking for her.
"Glad your here. You're partner is here in the conference room." Her boss Gene had told her.
"Oh, ok." Rory wasn't that excited about this whole partner deal.
"I hope you two get along with each other. Also that there are as few problems as possible." Gene told her when they were just about to go into the room.
' Can we just get this over with?' Rory said to herself with her boss halfway in the doorway. When Gene and Rory entered the room her heart just stopped right there.
Gene then introduced the two of us. "Rory Gilmore this is Tristan Dugray. Tristan Dugray meet Rory Gilmore."
Tristan acted like he didn't know her but was polite all the same and said "Nice to meet you, Rory Gilmore." Rory knew that Tristan new her name and her. Tristan knew that Rory knew him, but he felt like starting over.
Gene had other stuf to do, so he had to run, but before he left her he said "You two get to know each other I have other business to take care of."
After Gene left Tristan said "I guess we'll see a lot more of each other."
Rory just couldn't believe that out of all the people to have as a partner, why Tristan. He is nice and very sweet, but when Rory heard those words come out of his mouth she just shuddered at them. She didn't know if her day could get any worse. It was only 8:15.
