A/N: We're nearing the end now, last chapter now!!! If you haven't noticed, I've changed my pen name due to the fact that there are too many ppl with the name ~Me~. Hope it won't confuse ppl too much.

Chapter 21: Tristan

"What have I just gone and done… That was, uh eh- unexpected?!?"

"Rory! I'm back! Where are you, come out from where ever you are!!!!" Loralei's voice took a while to register in Rory's mind, but she was soon answering her Mother's call.

"I'm in the living room, Mum."

"Aww.. hey honey, what's up? Why the worried face?"

"I just got a phone call from James."

"And…"

"He asked me to go with him to the dance, but I said no…."

"Awww I'm sorry Babe." Loralei flung her arms around her daughter and held her tight.

"But that's not what's worrying me. It's what I said as an explanation that worrys me!" Rory looked helplessly up at her Mum.

"You know you can tell me anything Rory."

"I said I liked Tristan and was going with him!"

"You like Tristan?? He asked you to the dance?!?"

Rory nodded her head and snuggled up in her mother's arms. Loralei stroked Rory's head comfortingly.

"You gonna tell me what happened with Tristan?" Loralei questioned.

"Another time. First I have to ring Tristan."

"Sure."

****Half an hour later****

"You have reached the Dugrey residence. Unfortunatley we are conrrently unavailable. If you would like to leave a message, then please do so and we'll get back to you as soon as possible. Thankyou. *beeeeeeeeep*

"Um, hi it's Rory Gilmore. I wanted to talk to Tristan. So give me a call when you-"

"Mary!"

"Tristan?!?"

"That would be me."

"I, I, I was just, uh, leaving a, um message." Rory stuttered nervously.

"Yeah, we screen our calls."

"Oh, I ah, see." Rory let out a nervous laugh.

"I see I make you nervous Mary." Tristan laughed.

"Don't let it get to your head Bible-boy. Wouldn't want that head of yours to inflate to big."

"Anything for my Mary."

"Really? Anything?"

"Anything. Why so eager young Mary?"

"Will you go to the dance with me?!?"

"You're kidding, right?"

"No."

"6 o'clock alright with you?"

"I'll take that as a 'yes Rory, I'd love to go with you'." Rory and Tristan laughed together.

"So, why the sudden change of heart?"

"I came to the realiseation that I do like you."

"Is that my queue to break down in tears?"

"No, it's your queue to tell me you like me too."

"I love you Rory."

"I love you too, Tristan…" Rory whispered.

*silence*

"I'd sooo kiss you right now if I could, Rory."

"So would I."
