Chapter 20: The Question
Well throughout the end of the week Tristan and Rory were happier than ever. They had gotten very close. Even with all of Rory's friends at her apartment they were never in their way.
On the Friday, almost a week since Tristan met Rory after all those years, the girls decided to have a party. They talked to Rory and Tristan about it and they thought it wouldn't be a problem. Cat hosted the party in Rory's apartment. She told Lane to get decoration, Katie and Gretchen to find some source of entertainment. Rory, Tristan and Annie had to find people to come. Rory and Annie talked to Tristan about asking some of his friends. He didn't like the idea but he gave in.
"Ok, I will invite a few of my friends. But I don't know if they would want to come." Tristan said to the girls.
Rory said, "We don't care. As long as people come."
"That's right, but make sure to invite Bruce for cat." Annie said to him in particular.
"Ok, I will. Well I am going to go to my apartment to call, now." He said but remembered something before he left, "Oh, Rory I almost forgot. I have something special for you at my apartment. Come over later around 8?"
"Sure, I'll see you later." She said with a smile. She couldn't wait to see what he had for her.
~~~~~ Tristan's Apartment ~~~~~
Tristan was done with fixing up the finishing touches. He had the room lit with candles all around. There were lined up in the hallway so she could see her way when Rory came in. There were even some lit in his room if it led that far. Tristan then ran back into his kitchen to check on the food he was cooking.
"Perfect." He said to himself. "Everything is simply perfect."
He was looking at the stuff in his apartment to see if he missed anything. When he noticed that he didn't he heard a knock at the door. He turned his head to the door, and then put his hand in his pocket to make sure that he had it. He checked the room one more time and walked to the front door. He opened the door to a very casual looking Rory. She was wearing jeans and a T-shirt.
"Hi." He said to her.
"Hey you." She said to him while giving him a kiss on the cheek. "It's beautiful." She said while glancing at the hallway full of candles.
"Thanks." He said while shutting the door behind her.
"What's the special thing that you have for me? I am sorry to rush you, but we got to go back over there in a half hour." She said when she walked into his living room.
"Well, first let me say that we don't have to go over. Second I have prepared something great for you tonight." He said while taking her hand and moving her to the couch to sit.
"How is that possible, I mean your friends are coming over and my friends haven't even met them once." Rory said in disbelief.
"Let's just say I played the 'boyfriend want to spent more time with the girlfriend' card." Tristan said while sitting down next to her on the couch.
" That's so sweet of you. I thought that you would have burned something but it smell really good." She said to him.
"Thank you very much for that complement." Tristan said. Then he took her hand again and held it in his. He was going to do it. It was now or never. "Rory, you know how much I love you. I would do anything for you, you know that." She nodded at him and he continued. "Well, I think we should go another step farther. Just listen to me first, don't jump to the wrong conclusion. I have known you for a long time now. I mean you and I both know that we know everything there is to know about each other. I have loved you for years. Even after high school, I thought about you. In college I thought that if I turned around everywhere I went I would find you again. And now about 7 years later since high school we found this relationship that was inside all along." After he said all of that he put his hand into his pocket and felt the box. He started to stand up. "And I would like to ask you," he pulled the box out of his pocket and went down to one knee. "I love you Lorelai Leigh Gilmore, Will you do me the honor of marrying me?" He asked with the box open to the shiny 8-krat diamond.
"Tristan I." She was about to start crying, but finished what she wanted to say before the floodgates opened. "I will love to marry you." At that she kissed him and hugged him. * I love him * She thought to herself when she was in his warm embrace. * I can't believe it. *
