A/N: Hi readers! Thanks for the reviews. This is the next part of the story, don't forget I don't own any of the famous characters. Enjoy and REVIEW!

"Well Rory, about that kiss," Tristan began. "I really liked it, I felt a connection between us, you probably don't understand, and you're probably going to yell at me, so I'm ready for the screams now."

"Tristan, I'm not going to yell or scream at you." Rory stated. "I just feel that it was really unexpected. I imagined you were going to say something as a comeback or insult me." Tristan shifted his weight to the other side of his body. "Instead of that, I got an amazing kiss, that I felt was important and meant to happen."

"If it was amazing, how come you didn't kiss back?" Tristan inquired.
"Well, I have my reasons like I was unprepared, shocked, and vulnerable after my break up with Dean." Rory said. "But, I'm telling you Tristan, it was amazing, and I don't regret you kissing me, although, I do regret not kissing back." Rory finished.
"Wow, what's wrong with Rory today? She actually liked the kiss." Tristan thought.
"Rory, are you okay? You seem different. It sounds a little like you're flirting with me. Is that what your doing or am I imaging things?" Tristan questioned.
"Gosh Tristan, will you ever change?" Rory complained. "All I'm saying is I enjoyed the kiss, I wasn't trying to flirt."
"Gilmore! what are you saying, of course you were flirting with him! Duh!" Rory thought.
"That's what I thought." Tristan said, " Uh so, Rory, do you want to sit with me today at lunch?" Tristan asked hoping to get lucky.
"Wow, that was out of the blue, but I guess, I'm sure Paris wouldn't like my company." Rory stated.
"Trouble with Paris huh?." Tristan asked as they walked off.

(Tristan and Rory don't have after lunch classes together, so this is their next meeting-after school)


"Oh my god! Why did I go to the library? Now I've missed my bus, and I don't have a way home. I better call Grandma for a lift."Rory thought digging through her pockets for change to make the call with. "Okay, so here's a nickel, another nickel, a dime, and another dime. "Argh! I'm short five cents! Maybe there's some in my locker, I better go check."
Running towards her locker, she saw a figure strutting down the hall. Being blurry, she ignored whoever it was. With her head buried in her locker, she still couldn't find a single penny. Frustrated, she stepped out, and saw Tristan leaning against the locker just like how she was that morning.

"I was wondering when you would see me." Tristan said was his smirk. "What are you looking for? And why are you still here? Didn't your bus leave?"
"I'm looking for change to call my grandparents for so they could give me a lift back home since I missed my bus." Rory said. "And I'm only short five cents."

"Rory, Rory, my damsel in distress. Don't you see your shinning knight?" Tristan asked.

"What? Where?" Rory asked back.
"Don't be so clueless, I like you smart." Tristan responded. "I have a car, also no plans today, so I could drive you home."

"Well, okay." Rory said said slowly.

Tristan opened the door for Rory and they drove off to Stars Hallow. On the ride Rory fell asleep probably from reading so much, but he knew the way to her house by heart, so he didn't need to ask her for directions. Once he parked safely outside, he gently shook Rory. She didn't wake up so , Tristan tried again a few times but it was the same answer from her.
"I could carry her to her porch and set her on the chair," Tristan thought. "Yeah, but what if she gets cold?" "Will she blame me?" A thousand questioned popped into his mind. "DuGrey! Just go put her on the porch, she has a jacket." So slowly Tristan got out of his side and opened Rory's door. He gently carried her in his arms careful in not waking her. As he was only a few steps from the door, a short blonde-haired lady walked over to them.

"Dean?Dean? Is that you? Didn't you break little Rory's heart?" questioned Babette. "What are you doing here? Is that Rory is your arms?" She continued.
Tristan hearing this weird neighbor talk, turned around and revealed that he wasn't Dean, and glad of it. He would die before he would break Rory's heart especially on a special day like a 3-month anniversary like Dean. Babette saw that is wasn't Dean and panicked.
"Who are you?" she asked. "What did you do to Rory?"

Not sure of how to answer, Tristan just said, "I was just-"
