Title: Chapter 20: Marry me (Part 1)

2 months later…

Tristan's grandfather, Janlen DuGrey, had asked Tristan to live with him in Paris but Tristan refused. He said it would be better if he just stayed in that 'big house' so he could take a good care of it.

For the past two months, Tristan had spent every weekend at the Gilmore's. In a week he'd spent two or three nights there.

GILMORE HOUSE

Tristan was lying on Rory's bed. He had a cold.

"There you go…" Rory said as she put a warm towel on Tristan's fore head.

"Thanks"

"Have you taken your medicines?" Rory asked, sitting next to where Tristan was lying.

"Uh huh" was all he answered.

"Really?" Rory questioned, lifting her left eyebrow. Tristan didn't answer. Rory picked one of his medicines bottle on the nightstand.

"1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12…13! Ahah! There were 13 pills before I left and it still is! You didn't take your medicines"

"They don't taste so good you know"

"Of coarse they don't. They are medicines… but they kill all that germs that cause your cold"

"But baby…"

"No baby, say hi to your medicines. Now open your mouth"

Tristan shook his head.

"Tristan…"

He shook his head again.

"Please baby…"

Tristan sighed.

"I'll give you a kiss?"

"That's exactly what you said the last time you asked me to eat that not-so-good… thing"

"And I did give you a kiss"

"On the fore head"

"You have a cold. I can't kiss you on the lips. I might get infected. Who is going to take care of you if I get sick?"

"I can take care of myself"

"Uh huh sure… come on Tristan… take this…" Rory pleaded.

Tristan groaned. "Fine…" He took the pills. "I hate medicines" he muttered before he put the pills in his mouth, drank some water and swallowed.

"Good boy" Rory said as she taps on Tristan's head softly.

"Now where's my kiss?"

"What kiss?"

"Aww… come on Rory… You promised!"

"Umm… I don't think so… you must be hallucinating. That happens you know… to sick people"

Tristan pouted.

Aww… why do you have to make him that cute Rory thought. "You are spoiled" Rory said, leaning down and kissed his boyfriend o his right cheek. Then she settled next to him. Her head on his shoulder, her arms around his waist and her legs tangled with his.

"I love you" Tristan said softly. And he kissed the top of Rory's head.

"I love you more" Rory said, tighten her hold on him.

"Rory?"

"Hmm?"

Tristan sighed. "I feel so… lonely… living in the big house… all by myself"

"I know…"

"I love staying there, I really do but… sometimes… I just feel so… alone"

"Honey, I know how you feel and… I wish I could do something about it"

"Actually baby… there is something you can do"

"Really?" Rory asked, lifting her head up to meet his eyes.

"Yeah"

"What is it?"

"Marry me"
