Chapter 2 (Dean version): It's Too Important To Let Go



Yea so here's the Dean version. The Jess and Tristan version will be out tonight also. So standby for those! Now READ!

************************************************************************



The bus rolled up to the bus stop. Dean sighed, hoping that everything would work out, he brushed his hair off of his fore head and waited for Rory to come off the bus. He had formed a habit of watching the people that came off the bus before her and making up tiny segments about their lives. An old man came off the bus, then an old woman followed him, he held hands with the old woman and they walked off together. Dean decided that they had been married for forty years, had three grown up children and were happier then ever. He smiled hoping that one day maybe he and Rory would be like that.

Rory was looking out the window at Dean. He was watching the old couple walk off and was smiling. She grinned seeing him. She had been doing a lot of thinking lately and she knew that she was meant to stay with Dean, sure maybe right now Tristan and Jess were distractions. But she knew that if she and Dean could get through this then the could get through anything. Besides she had realized that she truly loved Dean, losing him would destroy her, she wouldn't know how to continue with her life. She'd be left stranded.

When she finally got off the bus she bounded over to Dean. She hugged him tightly, she smiled up at him and he returned her smile. Then she pulled him into the most passionate kiss that they had ever had together. They stood there kissing each other, finding a new side of their relationship, both of them were in ecstacy, knowing that this was right, this was how it was supposed to be, they were in love. The bus pulled away and they were still locked together at the lip. A while later they broke apart, Dean smiled down at Rory and grasped her hand.

"Hello to you too," he said.

Rory blushed and said, "Lets go get coffee." Then she ran off ahead of him.

Dean smiled, knowing that this truly was right, they were going to be together, forever. He loved her with all his heart, and that kiss, that kiss proved that she felt the same way about him and that nothing was changing.

**Three Years Later**

Rory was as giddy as a 7th grader getting ready for her first day of school. She had been in Harvard for two years now, and she had been separated from Dean too much. They had of course stayed together, their love for each other too strong to be broken something such as distance. Dean was coming that night and she wanted to look perfect, he was going to spend the weekend up there with her and that was not something that happened every weekend. They talked on the phone every night and visited each other at least every other week but usually for only a day. Rory looked at herself in the mirror, she was wearing a red spaghetti strap dress that was made of a gauzy material, it had a low square neckline. She had pinned her hair up to the side and let the other side hang down, then she had applied a little blush, a light pink lipgloss, mascara, and a tiny bit of eyeliner. She studied herself deciding that it would have to do and spritzed some of her perfume on.

Meanwhile Dean was only about five minutes away from Harvard. He knew what he was going to do tonight. It was something that he had wanted to do for as long as he could remember. He was aching to do it, to see the response she would give him, to find out if everything would continue, or if the next morning he would feel as though everything had been a dream. He arrived at Harvard, in front of Rory's dorm, he pocketed the little box, got out of the car and walked into the dorm.

Rory heard a knock at the door and she felt butterflies in her stomach. She walked over to the door, and opened it, it revealed Dean (of course) on the other side. She flung her arms around his neck and kissed him hard and lustfully. He responded and for the next ten minutes or so they stood there between the doorway, eating each others faces.

Then he said, "So your happy to see me?"

"No, not really." She said teasingly before kissing him again and whispering seductively, "You know I've missed you."

"Come on lets go, I have to whole evening planned out."

"Okay let me just get my shawl," Rory said, then she went in, grabbed her shawl and closed the door behind her.

The whole way over to the resturant and during dinner they talked, laughed, and gossiped about Stars Hollow. They were having the time of their lives. Dean looked over at Rory, revealing in her beauty, amazed that after all these years, she was still his. He watched her all night long, the way her eyes sparkled, the way she laughed, the way she smiled, and everything else about her.

After dinner Dean led Rory to the car.

"I have a surprise for you," he said.

"Okay."

"But first you have to close your eyes the whole way over there."

"Do I have to?" complained Rory.

"Yes you have to otherwise it won't be the same."

"Fine," she responded, crossing her arms over her chest.

Dean chuckled to himself and then drove off towards the designated destination (sorry it was too good an opportunity to use that to pass up!) which he knew Rory would find spectacular. He pulled into the driveway of the place and said, "Before you open your eyes just promise me you won't get mad or run away or any of that."

"I promise," she said.

"Okay, then you can open your eyes," he said as he put his arm around her.

When Rory opened her eyes she saw that it was a junkyard (if you don't get it its like their third anniversary), she looked around taking it all in and Dean decided to seize the moment for what he had been planning to do that whole night. He reached into his pant pocket and pulled out a little black box, then he held it so that Rory could see it. When she saw she gasped. He popped it open and revealed a slender gold ring with a beautiful diamond centered on it. Then he said, "Rory Gilmore, I have loved you since the moment I set eyes on you. For five years now I have loved you. I want to be with you forever, I can no longer remember what life is like without you. I couldn't imagine ever losing you. Loralei Leigh Gilmore, will you marry me?"

Rory's eyes brimmed with tears and Dean feared that she was about to start to cry so he squeezed her shoulder, then she nodded her head and leaned in and captured him in a passionate kiss, unable to speak. They were both pulled into a whirlwind of emotions, both happier then one could imagine possible.

**The End** (For you Dean Lovers)
