Title: Spring Fling
Author: lannah
Summary: Rory, Lorelai, Emily and Richard head out to the Dominican
Republic for spring break. Guess whom Rory meets?
Pairing: R/T of course!
Disclaimer: Sadly, I own zippidy-doo-daa of Gilmore Girls. If I did, then
Chad Michael Murray would still be on the show and he would be mine (and even if
they have nothing to do with Gilmore Girls, J-Boog from B2K and Orlando Bloom
would be mine too! Heehee!). Anywayz, all the characters and all that fun stuff
belong to the GG crew; the only thing that is mine is the plot (which will most
likely turn out to be pretty retarded, so I give you fair warning)!

"Ok, where too first?" Rory asked, after they had paid for their tickets and entered the amusement park. "I say roller coasters."
"The water ride, like splash mountain in Disneyland," Tatum added, after consulting the map in her hand.
"Haunted house," Tristan and Jordan said simultaneously.
"Ok, we'll do all that," Tatum said, thoughtfully, "but first, water ride!!!"
She took off running in some random direction.
"How about we just leave her?" Rory asked.
The guys laughed, as they followed the overly-hyper girl.
"Jeez, you guys are slow," Tatum grumbled, as they neared the ride. "Why is there such a long line?"
"Why are we going on the water ride first anyway?" Jordan asked.
"Because," Tatum said, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world, "if we get wet, then we have the rest of the time to dry off."
Rory craned her neck, trying to see how far away they were from the front of the line. "Well, we're definitely waiting her for a while."
"Whoa Rory, check it out," Tatum suddenly exclaimed. "Hot guy at one-o-clock."
"Will you stop that?" Rory asked. "I don't want to hook up with some random guy. How about you go talk to him?"
Tatum frowned. "I don't want to hook up with some random guy. Besides, I was joking."
"You're demented," Rory said.
"Thank you. I take great pride in being demented."
They fell silent for all of five seconds when Tatum spoke up again.
"I'm bored."
That elicited a bunch of laughs.
"I have an idea," Tatum said, "let's play truth or dare."
Both Tristan and Jordan groaned,
"With you?" Rory asked. "I don't think so. You'll probably dare me to go kiss some random guy."
"No, I wouldn't dare you to kiss some random guy..." she said slowly, a mischievous grin creeping across her face.
For some reason, Rory knew exactly what she was implying with that statement and had a sinking feeling that it had something to do with the six foot tall, blonde, blue-eyed boy standing beside her.
"I'm not playing."
"You guys are no fun," Tatum whined, as she sat down on the concrete, waiting for the line to move.

The rest of the day passed by in a blur. A very fun blur, though, in Rory's opinion. Not to mention the fact that both Tatum and Tristan could be counted on for added entertainment and laughs.
It was now twilight and the group had managed to go on almost every ride in the park. Now they were aimlessly wandering around, eating ice-cream, and trying to figure out what to do next.
"I want to go on the bumper cars. Crash into some people," Tatum added.
"I want to go play a game," Rory said, as she looked at the endless game booths that surrounded them.
"Ok, Tristan you stay here with Rory, and Jordan and I will go on the bumper cars," Tatum said, smiling.
"Wait, what?" Rory sputtered.
"Well, we're not going to leave you here alone are we?" Tatum asked. "And Jordan wanted to go on the bumper cars too."
"I did?" Jordan asked, as Tatum gave him a Look. "Oh yeah...I did...earlier today I did..."
"Alrighty then, it's all settled. We'll meet up with you two later."
They decided on a time and meeting place and then Tatum and Jordan disappeared.
"So Mar, what game do you want to play?" Tristan asked, as they resumed their walking.
Rory shrugged. "You know, I don't think you've called me by my real name, once, since we've been here."
Tristan grinned. "What can I say? Mary suits you better."
Rory shook her head, but found herself smiling.
"I'm kind of glad you're here this week," she added quietly.
Tristan smiled at her. "Me too, Mary. Me too."
Rory broke her gaze from him and pointed to a booth behind him. "Let's go play that one."
He followed her to a booth that was half basketball, half-aiming water guns at a dartboard.
"You have to beat that time..." the guy at the counter explained to Rory, upon her announcement that she wanted to play the "water-dartboard game."
Thirty seconds later, she let out a triumphant whoop, as she won. "Yes!!!! I win, I win, I win!!!"
The guy smiled and pointed to the very top row of stuffed animals. "Pick which one you want."
Rory looked up at the vast array of stuffed toys. "Ooh, I want the monkey," she said. Then her gaze fell on a green alien not too far away from it. "Aw, that's so cute! I want the alien instead." She looked back at the monkey. "But I want the monkey...I'll take the monkey."
The guy made a move to get the monkey down, but Rory interrupted him once more.
"Nooo, I want the alien."
"Will you make up your mind?" Tristan asked, an amused smile on his face.
Rory pouted. "Fine, I want the monkey."
Tristan grinned as the guy handed her the monkey, but all the time she was looking longingly at the alien.
"I want to play basketball," Tristan said.
"For the ones up there, like that," the guys said pointing towards the top row and towards Rory's monkey, "you have to make five shots in a row."
"Piece of cake," Tristan said, taking the ball from the guy.
"Please." Rory rolled her eyes, and then watched as Tristan effortlessly sank five balls in a row.
He let out a whoop, as the guy asked him what he wanted.
Tristan pretended to think for a while. "Maybe, I'll take the alien," he said slowly.
"You suck!!" Rory exclaimed, "that's the one I wanted!!!"
Tristan smirked. "Alright Mar, no more games for you," he said, leading a pouty Rory away from the booth.
As they walked away, she kept shooting glances at the alien he carried in his hands.
"You should learn the meaning of the word 'discreet'," Tristan said, laughing at her.
She scowled at him.
"You want the alien?" Tristan asked.
Rory perked up immediately, nodding her head.
"You can have it," Tristan said, "on one condition."
Rory narrowed her eyes at him. "What?"
"You have to give me a kiss..." he grinned mischievously at the horrified look on her face, "over here," he finished pointing to his cheek.
Rory groaned. "I have to work for it?" she asked incredulously.
"Hey, I didn't get it for free," Tristan replied.
"Fine," Rory huffed, but stood up on her tiptoes and quickly kissed him, trying to ignore the tingly feeling that washed over her from the contact.
Tristan grinned. "See, now was that so hard?"
"Yes."
He laughed and handed the alien over to her.
"Yay," Rory squealed, throwing her arms around him and giving him a huge hug, proceeding to shock the both of them.
"If I knew all it took to get a hug from you was to give you some gigantic stuffed toy, I would have done it sooner," Tristan said, smirking at her.
Rory rolled her eyes, then smiled. "Wanna go on the ferris wheel?"
