Title: Chapter 21: Marry me (Part 2)

Author's note: Eager are we…? He he… *evil smirk*

"Actually baby… there is something you can do"

"Really? What is it?"

"Marry me"

Rory started getting up, slowly.

"Rory… I know it's a little too fast… well… way too fast actually because we're still in high school… but—" Tristan also started getting up but he stopped because his head was killing him. "Okay… I couldn't get up so… I'm just gonna stay right here and talk…so… don't leave okay?"

Rory nodded.

"Okay… just hear me out" Tristan sighed. "Rory… I love you. I love you so much and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I have to spend my life with you. I… I couldn't imagine my life spending with someone else other than you Rory… I want to take care of you. You know I can support our lives together right?"

Rory nodded, again.

"So… I don't see a problem if we get married. I love you and you love me… and…"

Rory walked towards the bed and sit next to Tristan.

"Tristan? Are you done with the talking?"

"Well… not really… I still didn't talk about ummm… kids"

Rory slapped him on the arm playfully. Then she stared lovingly into his blue eyes.

"Tristan… I love you. I love you more than anything in my life, but…"

Tristan sighed.

"But we're still young and marriage is a big thing" he cut her off.

"No… that's not what I wanted to say… and how many times I told you not to interrupt when a person is talking"

"Sorry" he mumbled, staring down at his hands.

"As I was saying… Tristan…"

Tristan looked up piercing his eyes in hers. His eyes filled with hopes.

"I love you… but… you think Chilton will let a married couple be in the school?" she asked innocently.

Tristan's eye widened.

"That's… that's a yes right? Right? That's definitely a yes"

Rory nodded, with a big smile plastered on her face.

"Oh my god" Tristan said as he hugged him tightly. "You just made me the happiest man alive. I love you" He whispered to her ears. After a while, they pulled away. "I love you Rory and I promise I will make you the happiest woman alive"

"You know as far as I concern… when a man purposed a woman… there will be this… round thing… and pretty shiny… called an engagement ring" Rory joked.

Tristan fumbled around in his pockets, looking for the box.

"Oh my god. You have the ring?! Tristan… I… I was just kidding"

Tristan took out a small black box and opened it.

"Tristan…"

Tristan picked out the ring from the box and slides it into Rory's ring finger.

"It's so beautiful…"

"It is isn't it? But it looks a lot more beautiful on you"

Rory started to lean in but Tristan stopped her by putting his index finger on her lips.

"I have a cold"

"I don't care" Rory said and she crashed her lips on his. Tristan dipped his head to kiss her. He breathed her name into her parted lips. She relaxed in his arm. Each of them slid their lips together, slanting, sucking, biting. Tristan ran one hand down to cup the softness of her bottom. Trailing kisses from her lips to her ear, he felt her change position, allowing him better access to her neck. His rigidity rested against her private place, and she began to move against him.

"Tristan" She kissed his ear and neck until he took her lips again. His fingers reached for the buttons of her shirtwaist. She helped him, exposing her shoulder to his wondering mouth. Rory gasped when Tristan sucked her nipple through the fabric of her dress. She moved her hips frantically.

"You'll get infected" Tristan said, breathless.

"Oh yeah? I can see you starting to feel a lot better"

"Oh yes I am"

"I'm glad"

See…. I'm not that mean… she said yes.
