A/n: Okay please people I need reviews. This story is really lacking reviews. I thank the people who do review often but I need more reviews. Lately I have been getting only one or two reviews per chapter and my stories only thrive on other people's comments. Okay I am done with my rambling. Oh I thank people like smile and Ilovejess and everyone else who often reviews.

Now on with the story!

Rory was shocked. Tristan had just, just kissed her. She had to get out of there. What if Jess had seen or, or saw her going with Tristan? Anything could possibly have happened in the last 2 seconds. She looked at Tristan who still had his hand entangled with hers. She looked down at her shoes, which lately she seemed to do a lot.

Rory: Tristan I...

Tristan: No Rory I shouldn't have. You were upset about Jess and I shouldn't have surprised you like that.

Rory: (quietly) No, it was....nice.

Tristan smiled and somehow Rory felt so safe. She could trust Tristan and knew he would never hurt her. She closed her eyes and leaned closes towards Tristan. He softly stroked her hair. Tristan frowned to himself. How could anyone possibly do anything to hurt such a beautiful person? He thought to himself. Rory looked up to meet Tristan's eyes.

Rory: (softly) Thank you.

Tristan: (smiling) Anything for you.

Rory: I have to go. I promised my mom I would come back home tonight.

Tristan: Ok, promise to call me tonight?

Rory: (smiling) I promise.

That day when Rory was driving home to Stars Hollow she seemed so happy. Happy that Jess was gone, happy that she had Tristan, just happy about everything. She drove into the town that at one point had protected her from the dangers of life. It still did. All of the memories it held. Fresh tears made their way down her cheek, all of the memories of her and Jess together and happy. She drove into the driveway and wiped away the tears. She wouldn't cry over him anymore. She walked into the house and saw her mom walking into the living room.

Lorelai: Rory your home!

Rory: (smiling) Hey mom

She stayed to have dinner then left to her new house. It was a small but comfortable house and Rory soon settled in. It was around 8:00pm when she finally sat down and pulled out a book. She decided that she would hold her promise and call Tristan. The phone rang several times before he picked up.

Tristan: Hello

Rory: Hey Tristan

Tristan: Rory you called

Rory: I told you I would.

Tristan: Rory, I love you.

A/n: I tried to make this chapter longer. Please don't forget to review. That little purple button down there is awfully lonely these days.
