Chapter 8: Sometime dreams can come true

Saturday late afternoon, Luke's dinner

Dean and Tristan are still sitting at the same table.  They haven't stop talking and laughing.  Both guys had come to realized that the other one wasn't as bad as they thought.  They weren't best friends, they were just two guys who wanted to get along to please a girl they both appreciated.  Dean had talk about his break up with Rory, how he met Lindsay, the argument he had with Rory when he told her that he was engaged, he talk about what he knew of the relationship between Jess and Rory.  Tristan talked about his past behavior, about military school and his new life at Yale. 

"If I ask you a question, will you tell me the truth?" Dean asks.

"Only if I can."

"Why did you keep on running after Rory after the winter formal?"

"I stopped.  I've made a fool of myself that night.  I kept my distances after that."

"When I went to pick her up you were holding her book!"

"That! Well, you broke up with her, she was free, we tried to be friend but I saw something else in the friendship."

"What do you mean?"

"Things had gotten decent at Chilton for her, I made sure she either had to go out with me or be all by herself with no friends."

"You such a jerk!"

"We settled that already, I WAS.  I had bought these concert tickets of PJ Harvey.  I went to see her and showed them in her face, she said I had good taste in music. I told her she was the lucky girl that would go with me.  I never asked her, I just assumed she would come and she refused, I told Paris that Rory was coming on a date with me, hell started for Rory again.  The day of the concert, she was still refusing to go, I stole her books and you were there.  Seeing you two kiss broke my heart.  I left her alone after that."

"What about the play?"

"She had said some things that I would prefer to forget.  It was pay back, nothing personal."

Before Dean can reply, Jeff, Lorelai and Rory walk through the door.  Rory immediately sees Tristan and says:

"Tristan, I've been looking all over for you! I though you got lost, where have you been?"

"Right here, trying to get to know Mr. Bean here!"

Turning around, Rory sees Dean, she sits down beside Tristan, take a deep breath, look at her mom and asks:

"When was I transferred in a different dimension? I don't see any blood!" Lorelai walks toward the table and sits beside Dean.

"When I caught these two fighting, Iconvinced them to try to get along if they wanted to be part of your life."

"Well, mom, thank you.  Tristan, would you mind if I talk to Dean outside for a minute?"

"Why would I?" While Rory got up, Dean reluctantly got up to follow her outside, Jeff took Dean's seat.

Outside Luke's Dinner

"What is your problem Dean?"

"What are you talking about?"

"You scream at me like I have to report to you and then my mom catches you fighting with my friend!"

"I though he was here to torment you."

"He was not! I told you, we're friends! And you have no right to do this! You told me to have a nice life, you don't have to protect me anymore!"

"I might have over reacted.  Look, you're right, I don't have a say in your life anymore…"

"You never had any say in my life; you were part of it, not in control of it!"

"I know!"

"Now that you don't even want to be friends, stop trying to be nice to my friends!"

"I love you Rory!"

"You did not just say that!"

"I did! But not the way you think! We've been together for over two years! I miss you, I miss talking to you! I know I might have said harsh words to you but you did hurt me a lot and it did hurt me to see Jess treat you the way he did.  You deserve better!"

"Like you maybe?"

"No, I could never be with you again.  I loved you and you went looking for something else.  I just want to be your friend now." Rory stayed silent for a couple of minutes before saying:

"There are two things I have to say before we try this friendship thing again, but you won't like it."

"Say it"

"The night after you broke up with me, Tristan and I kissed…."

"Now I get what he was saying!"

"…and at Sookie's wedding, I kissed Jess."

"I didn't know about this one although I suspected the first one."

"You're mad, I can tell."

"Are there any more secrets that I should be aware of?"

"Depends"

"On what?"

"If you still want to be friends."

"I'd love that."

"Well, all will be revealing in time.  Can we go eat?"

"If you promise there are no other secrets that happened while we were together."

"None, 1 promise, 1 can't tell you everything now, but when the time is right you'll be informed." As a respond, Dean simply took Rory in his arms for a big hug, and then they went inside to eat while Dave and Lane were running to be able to catch them.

Inside Luke's Dinner

They all ate and talked.  They were having a lot of fun together.  Luke was happy to see that Rory was over Jess.  He was still feeling guilty that he sent him away but maybe that was the best thing that could have happened to Rory.  Now she was laughing, surrounded by three men that really seem to care about her.  Although he suspected that she would have to choose between them one day, they all had fun for the moment. 

Lorelai was happy that Dean and Rory were on speaking terms again.  They had always been such good friends even if that relationship had lack all the passion, which she think was the best kind of relationship for a sixteen years old girl.  Her baby would turn nineteen on Monday and she wouldn't be home with her.  She felt sick.  What would that year bring to Rory, would she fall in love again? She hoped so, even if she was scared of seeing her daughter in a passionate relationship, she wanted the best for her daughter and she knew that it would happen one day or another.

After they finished eating, Dean said:

"Well, it was nice; I have to get home now. Bye"

They all said bye at the same time.

"What can we do on a Saturday night in Stars Hollow?" Tristan asks.

"Not much, we can catch a movie, walk around town." Rory answers.

"Where could we dance and party a bit." Jeff asked while all the girls at the table looked a each other and started to laugh.

"This is Stars Hollow! Taylor would never give a permit for a bar! It would ruin the whole nice little town experience and turn it to a juvenile delinquent reunion!" Lane explains.

"You're making this up!" Tristan exclaims.

"I am not! I see you haven't met Taylor yet! If he had the power he would make a law so every boy in town would have to have a maximum hair length permit and the girl would have their hair going at least shoulder length, make up wouldn't be allowed and tainted hair would also be illegal." Lane replies.

"Don't forget that the grass would have to be at least half an inch long to a maximum of an inch." Luke says while refilling the coffees.

"You're making fun of us!" Jeff says.

"You would be surprised of the weirdness happening in this town" Dave says while looking at his watch and he continue but addressing to Lane "It's eight thirty, maybe I should walk you home before your mom decides that we're not allowed to see each other."

"But Dave, I don't have to be home before nine!"

"Well, there was that thing you wanted to show me." Lane gives Dave a very confused look and as she realizes the meaning of his words, her cheeks turn red.

"Yeah, right, the things, well, we better hurry if we want to see it!" And they were out the door.

"What was that about?" Jeff asked.

"They went for a quick make out session" Lorelai says.

"So, if there is nothing to do around here, could I have the grand tour of the town?" Tristan asks.

"Sure, want to come Jeff?" Rory asks.

"Nope, I've seen enough for today, I think I'll just go watch some TV."

"Well, I'll go with you, maybe we could rent a really bad movie and comment on the bad acting and all!" Lorelai says excited.

"Sure."

"Okay, well see you at home later!" Rory says while taking Tristan's hand and walking toward the door.

Around Stars Hollow, night

"It's a very quiet town, there is absolutely no action." Tristan says.

"Well, people have a lot of time to spy on everybody." They arrive at the bridge and Tristan says.

"I like this place.  It's beautiful."

"Yeah! I always come here when I need to reflect on something."

"Want to sit?"

"Sure" and they sat. They kept in silence for a while.  Finally, Tristan takes a box out of the pocket of his jacket and gives it to Rory.

"What is this?"

"A gift."

"But why?"

"It's your birthday pretty soon."

"But it's not yet."

"I won't have the chance to give it to you tomorrow, and Monday we have classes and I'm sure Jeff would love to spend the evening alone with his girlfriend."

"Why won't you have the chance tomorrow?"

"Because Jeff will be there! Now, open it!" Rory open the small velvet box and inside there's a very delicate gold chain with a coffee mug medallion.  Where the coffee would usually be is a small amethyst.

"It's beautiful Tristan."

"Do you like it?"

"I love it but I can't accept it, it's too much?"

"You cannot refuse a gift; I gave it to you now you take it! The question is, will you wear it?"

"Could you put it on?" She turns around and pulls up her hair with her hands.  Tristan takes the chain and locks it around her neck.  Tristan can't resist the urge he has to kiss her so he bends his head a little to kiss a spot on her neck.  Feeling his lips on her neck, she quickly turns around looking at him.

"Don't be mad, don't go, I don't know what got into me." Tristan says while passing a hand through his hair.  While Rory was looking at him she realized that he looked embarrassed and something in the way he looked at her went straight to her heart.  She simply says:

"I'm not mad" She flashes him a smile and puts arms around his neck, she whispers "Thank you" and she kisses him.  Jolt of electricity filled both of their bodies, and after the initial surprise of Rory kissing him, he just puts his arms around her to hold her close to him and kiss her back.
