A/N: thank you so much guys for the reviews. I really didn't like the last
chapter but it went down okay with you lot so I guess there's not much to
complain about! This has taken longer to post than I thought, I apologise,
things are a bit hectic!
Rory and Tristan had been making out until Rory had gotten a bit freaked and pulled away. To say that Tristan wasn't frustrated would've been a lie but even though he was frustrated, he understood. Rory had gotten embarrassed and wouldn't stop apologising even though Tristan told her it was okay, she was still blushing half an hour later when they were lying on his bed, watching the MTV Unplugged Nirvana DVD.
Rory had been shocked to find it mixed in with Tristan's CD's and DVD's. She hadn't taken him for a Nirvana fan. She couldn't help but get the feeling that there was a lot about Tristan that she didn't know but she smiled when she found herself thinking that she wanted to find out all of that stuff.
Tristan was lying flat on his back and Rory curled up, lying on his chest, when there was a knock at the door, before they even got a chance to move, it opened, revealing Mr. and Mrs DuGrey, they were just in from work. Mr. DuGrey's eyebrows rose considerably when he saw the position his son was in and his mother looked terribly embarrassed.
'Tristan, aren't you going to introduce us?' his mother asked.
Tristan and a blushing Rory got up from the bed and walked to the door.
'Mom, dad, this is Rory Gilmore, my girlfriend. You met her a few months ago; Richard and Emily Gilmore are her grandparents.'
'Ah, yes. Lovely to see you again.' Anthony DuGrey smiled, taking her hand and shaking it.
Rory just smiled and nodded.
Caroline DuGrey smiled and kissed Rory on the cheek. She had been very impressed with the girl that one time she had met her.
'Rory dear, lovely to see you. You must stay for dinner.'
'I'm afraid I can't. I have dinner at my grandparents every Friday night to make up for not seeing them much when living in Los Angeles.'
'Oh, that's a shame, but lovely to see you spend time with them. I swear they never stop bragging about you.' Anthony told her.
Rory blushed even further but she was saved by Caroline.
'Anthony, don't embarrass the child. They are very proud of you though dear, they're good people.'
'That they are. Shall I tell them you said hello?'
'Would you? I'm afraid we haven't been able to catch up lately, we must all have dinner soon.' Caroline replied
'No problem, dinner would be nice.'
'Well I'll call you're grandmother tomorrow and we can arrange it then. Well we better leave you both to it. No doubt you want to get back to your concert.' Caroline said pointing to the screen, a grimace on her face; apparently she wasn't a Nirvana fan.
'Oh, mom, Rory and I are going out tonight so don't expect me back early.'
'I thought Rory had dinner with her grandparents tonight.' Anthony spoke for Tristan's mother.
'After dinner. We're only going to the movies, no big deal.'
'Okay but don't forget son, we have that golf game tomorrow morning.'
'Don't worry, I haven't forgotten.'
'Okay, have a good night you two. Since you're going out later, we might go out to dinner.' His mom told him.
'What about Dylan?'
'He's staying with Marcus tonight.'
'Oh. Okay.'
'Night then son. Night Rory.'
'Night.' Rory and Tristan chorused before going back into his room, shutting the door behind them.
'So, how did my formal introduction go?'
'They like you.' Tristan smiled, kissing her lightly. Rory smiled slightly before catching sight of the clock.
'Crap, I have to go.'
'Okay, so what's the plan for the night?'
'What do you mean?'
'Like with cars and stuff. It's not exactly a date if we take separate cars. I can't do the guy thing and drive you home.'
'I see your point. I can leave my car at my grandparents and pick it up tomorrow but that would mean you picking me up there.'
'That's fine.'
'Are you sure?'
'Yeah, no girlfriend of mine is going to dive herself to and from a date with me.'
'Gee, macho much?'
'What, it's the proper guy thing to do.'
'I'm not even going to argue with you, I don't have time, but pick me up around half eight.'
'Yes ma'am.'
Rory kissed Tristan lightly on the lips before leaving the room and running down the stairs, late for dinner with her grandparents.
'So Rory, how's school going?' Richard asked.
'It's going really well, grades are good and my friends and I are having lots of fun too so it's great.'
'Tell me, are you friends with that DuGrey boy? Tristan? He was at dinner a while back.' Emily asked.
'Actually we're going out. I just came from his house, his mom and dad say hi.'
'You're going out with him? Why that's wonderful. We must have them all over for dinner again.' Emily beamed. Getting her granddaughter and Tristan together had been her plan in the original dinner.
'His mom actually said something about it. She told me to tell you she'd call you.'
'Very well. Lorelai you're very quiet tonight.'
'Just watching you mom.'
'Watching me eat my dinner, why yes I can see how that would be fascinating for you.'
'No, watching you and Rory.'
'So now I can't interact with my granddaughter?'
'I didn't say that I was just thinking that you haven't changed a bit.'
'Lorelai what are you talking about?'
'You were the very same when I got together with Christopher. Planning dinners with his family, bringing him up out of nowhere.'
'I am simply showing an interest in Rory's social life, very much like I took an interest in yours.'
'Mom by my fourth date with Chris you practically had the china patterns picked.'
'Oh I did not.'
'Whatever just ease up a bit, they've been dating for two weeks, the last thing they need is a big family dinner with all the trimmings.'
'Lorelai I really think you are overreacting.'
'Just at least wait a couple of weeks, please.'
'Rory do you think more time is necessary?'
'Well everything is still pretty new maybe over Christmas would be good.'
'Fine, we'll wait. Are you happy now Lorelai?'
'Ecstatic, now dad, would you please pass the wine?'
'Of course Lorelai.'
'Grandma, grandpa, do you mind if I leave my car here tonight?'
'Why?'
'Well Tristan and I have a date and he wants to drive me and he wants to do the whole thing where he brings me home and stuff.'
'Of course dear.' Emily told her.
'I must say, this Tristan seems to be quite the gentleman.' Richard said, sounding approving.
Lorelai had been holding back during all the talk of Tristan but now she couldn't help herself as she snorted into her food.
'Everything all right Lorelai?' Richard asked concerned.
'Yes, thanks dad.'
Rory kicked her mom under the table before turning to Emily.
'So how are things at the DAR Grandma?'
Rory had told Tristan to meet her at nine so when he pulled up five minutes early, not only was she surprised but afraid. She didn't want her grandparents to go and invite him in and make a big deal out of things, he was still getting used to Lorelai. Rory rushed out to grab her coat but was stopped by everyone, including her mom.
'Rory bring him in.' she suggested.
'Yes.' Richard agreed.
'It would be rude not to.' Emily told her but Rory was adamant.
'No really we'll be late. The movie starts soon.'
'Nonsense, go to a later one.'
There was a ring at the doorbell and Rory opened the door to see Tristan leaning casually against the doorframe, looking gorgeous. He smiled in greeting and Rory opened the door wider so he could get past her and into the foyer where the others stood to greet him.
'Tristan, hello, lovely to see you again dear.' Emily cooed.
'You too Mrs. Gilmore.'
'How's Janlan?' Richard asked.
'He's great, taking a week of to visit Paris with my Grandmother.'
'How lovely. Paris is stunning this time of year.'
'Hey Tristan, watch yourself tonight, got that?' Lorelai warned. Tristan didn't back down however, he knew she was protective of Rory but he wasn't going to squirm in front of her.
'I always do thanks Lorelai. I'll have Rory home by twelve or is that too late.'
'Twelve is fine. You guys have fun now.' She told them cheerily. She liked to pretend to Tristan that she didn't like him when in actual fact she did because even though she liked him, she didn't fully trust him, not yet anyway. If she pretended like she didn't like him, he'd be more respectful and responsible to try and get her to like him.
'So will we go then?' Tristan asked, turning to Rory.
'Sure. We don't want to be late.'
'Bye.' Everyone called to each other before the two teenagers left.
As soon as they sat in Tristan's car, Tristan pulled Rory to him, kissing her hard. At first Rory was taken aback by the kiss but soon she relaxed into it, enjoying the feeling of Tristan holding her so tightly. When they pulled apart, they smiled at each other.
'Hey.' He grinned.
'Hi. So what movie are we going to see?'
'Gothicka.'
'Ooh, Robert Downey Jr. but isn't it meant to be scary?'
'All the better, you can cuddle up to me.'
'You planned it didn't you?'
'Totally. Just an excuse for you to cop a feel.'
'That'll be you, not me Bible Boy.'
'We'll see.' He said smirking infuriatingly as he drove to the cinema.
Rory didn't like the sound of this, she hated scary movies but Tristan was right, she would have him to cuddle into, and she definitely liked to sound of that although she bet that Tristan liked it even more.
Again so so so so SORRY that I haven't updated in forever, I've been really sick and really busy. I'm sorry that this chapter sucks I'm not really inspired for this fic at the moment but it was holding me back and I just had to get it out.
