Jess watched them laughing from across the table, where he sat
playing with his food wondering why he had agreed to come in the first
place. Its not like he was having a good time with Lori, and to see
Rory and that guy down the table having the time of their lives, it was
just torture.
Rory was glad she had invited Tristan as her date. They were
laughing and joking, making fun of some of the people there and he was
keeping her mind of Lori. It seemed that they always got along outside
of school. Like that day when they went out for coffee, they had a
wonderful time. And tonight they hadn't fought at all. Maybe it was just
the confinement of the walls of Chilton. Maybe the cold, stuffy
school affected everyone's behavior and attitudes. But she liked this.
She really liked being able to talk to him.
She looked across the table to see Luke and Lorelai sitting next
to each other, arguing as usual, but loving every minute of it. Rory
could see the love in Luke's eyes when he looked at her mother. In fact,
she had been seeing it for years, past all the sarcasm and annoyed looks
he always threw. Of course she had always tried to convince her mother
that the sparkles in his eyes were for Lorelai and Lorelai alone, but
in true Lorelai fashion, she ignored both Rory and his eyes.
But tonight Rory noticed the spark in Lorelai's eyes as well, and
she couldn't help but let out a smile of satisfaction. No wonder her
mother had chosen to keep the identity of her date a mystery. She wanted
to keep of Rory's 'I told you so' speeches as long as possible.

"Do you wanna walk the rest of the way to your house?" Tristan
asked Rory as the drove through the Stars Hollow town square. "Its not
that far and it is a beautiful night tonight."
"Sure," Rory said. Tristan parked the car and ran around the
other side to help her out. "Always the perfect gentleman," she said
to him.
He just smiled as she slipped her arm in his and they began the
walk through town.
"What's that gazebo over there?" he asked.
"Just a gazebo," she answered, smiling at his fairly ridiculous
question.
"Can we go sit in it?" he asked.
"Sure, why not." They crossed the street and went inside the
gazebo.
"Too bad there aren't benches all the way around the inside,"
Rory said. "I always thought that was a shame."
"Why's that?" Tristan asked.
"Come on. You can't tell me you've never seen The Sound of Music?
When that Liesel girl and the Nazi boy leap and dance all around her
gazebo? That has to be one of the best dance sequences of all times,"
she said.
"Is that all you and Lorelai do? Watch movies?" he asked.
Rory shook her head. "No. We also eat and drink coffee."
Tristan laughed. "How could I forget?"
"It looks like I'm just going to have to teach it to you,"
Rory said.
"Teach me what?"
"The dance, stupid. Keep up!"
She started twirling around the gazebo, her long dress fluttering
after her. Tristan laughed as he watched her dance, the moonlight
spilling over her shoulders softly. He couldn't believe this was the
same Rory from school. She definitely wasn't the stuffy, uptight person
that she was during school hours.
When she twirled past him, Tristan grabbed her in his arms and
pulled her close. Rory's beautiful blue eyes grew big with shock and
surprise. He was about to kiss her, but then thought better of it.
"What if I told you I wanted to kiss you right now?" he asked,
knowing it was safer to ask her permission than to go for it and end up
having to chase a hysterical girl.
"I would tell you I want to kiss you too," she said softly.
Tristan leaned down to kiss her, and got lost in the sensation
of her soft lips against his.
