~~**~~

Closing her eyes, Rory Gilmore fell down on her bed, allowing sleep to come. Yet no matter how hard she tried, she felt herself unable to relax. Today she had had the worst fight with her boyfriend Tristan in her whole 20 year old life.

She sighed, remembering their childhood together. Their parents had practically set them up right after they were born. Young Lorelai III and the equally stubborn Tristan DuGrey had tried to resist eachothers charm and they spent the first seven years of their life fighting.

Rory smiled when she remembered how Tristan used to pull her hair...telling her that he would have liked her if she had only been a boy...and practically ordering her to cut it off. Ofcourse she refused to do so, which resulted in Tristan getting the scissors and making a mess of her hair.

They hadn't talked for a month after that.

But in time, like all little children do, they forgot all about it and things were peaceful for a year or two. Until Tristan had started to notice girls and tried to kiss Rory.

Thinking back she couldn't see the big deal it had been back then. He had just placed his lips on hers and pressed his mouth so hard on her that she could taste her own blood. Before running off with tears in her eyes the had slapped him, leaving a big red mark on his cheek.

Then highschool came and Tristan was crowned King of Chilton. Ofcourse Rory was always by his side, making girls jealous. Not that they had anything to be jealous of, cause, let's face it, there had been girls so much prettier than Rory Gilmore. At least...that was her own humble opinion. They spent the whole time bantering, always insulting eachother but never meaning a word.

Sometimes he would feign being hurt, and then laughed when Rory took him serious. He would always tease her, calling her Mary just to see that cute blush on her face. Other days he would make sexual comments, turning everything she said into something erotic.

She had come to realize she could never win with him. That didn't mean she didn't try though. And one day she had found the perfect comeback to make him shut up.

~~FLASHBACK~~

"Why Mary...you're looking awfully pretty today"

Tristan smirked

"Wanna come over after school and help me study on my `biologytest`?"

He winked, causing her to blush once more. Just when he thought she was giving him the silent treatment her head appeared from behind her locker.

"You know Tris...for the King of Chilton it's pretty pathetic to be someone's lapdog. You'll never have me...and your big ego is wounded cause of that...but let me tell you this...when you keep following me around you won't be king for long anymore. They want someone to look up to...not someone who is following me like a lovesick puppy."

~~END FLASHBACK~~

Okay...looking back on it now it wasn't THAT great a comment, but whatever...it made him shut up for a while. And Rory could still hear all the boys chanting

"Woof! Woof!"

~~**~~

She realized those words had probably made him even more determined to get her. But Rory Gilmore felt too good to be just a girl on his list. She wanted to be someone's number one. And yes, secretly she had wanted to be HIS number one, but she never allowed her thoughts to dwell on that for more than a second, knowing that it would never happen.

But again, she had underestimated the willpower of Tristan DuGrey. He wanted her, so he was going to get her.

~~**~~

Rory still remembered their first kiss...or their second if you counted the one they had shared at age nine. They had been studying, for real this time, and suddenly Tristan had pulled her into his arms and lowered his mouth onto hers.

~~FLASHBACK~~

Shock caused her to freeze, giving him the time and opportunity to part her lips with his tongue and to expertly explore her mouth. Shock...and the fact that somehow, deep down inside, she had waited for this kiss for a long time.

After a few seconds she broke the kiss, tears already stinging in her eyes.

"God...I can't believe I am this stupid...you probably bragged to all your friends, right? Telling them that I was coming over to `study`. I can't believe I actually bought that!"

She grabbed her bag, hurriedly making her way out of his bedroom. He tried to hold her back, saying things she didn't even hear. The only thing she could think about was that she wanted to leave. She almost tripped, trying to get out of there as fast as she could.

~~END FLASHBACK~~

He had called her the day after, his voice sad at the discovery that she had avoided him in school. She could recall slipping into a dreamlike state when he finally told her all the things she had wanted to hear for so long.

They went to prom together, sharing their first awkward kiss in public. She could remember exactly how his hair smelled...what she wore...how she felt. And everytime `their` song had played she remembered it all over again.

~~**~~

So now they had been together for over two years. Rory had thought things were going great the way they were, but obviously Tristan had disagreed.

She had been working in Hartford for the newspaper, and things were really great. She had her own flat, great friends and a wonderful life. The only thing, or rather, person, she had been missing was Tristan. He worked in London, setting up a new department for DuGrey enterprises. Usually he would come over once or twice a month, to see Rory and talk business with his father.

The last time he had come had been last night...

~~FLASHBACK~~

"Rory!"

He ran towards her and twirled her around once he had her in his arms.

"I missed you"

She smiled and ran her fingers through his hair.

"I missed you more"

His face went all serious and he shook his head.

"Impossible"

He kissed her passionately.

"I missed you this much..."

She kissed him back with even more passion, pressing herself up against him.

"I missed you...THIS much..."

He groaned. His mouth left hers and he nipped on her earlobe before kissing the most sensitive spot in her neck. Meanwhile his hands grazed the soft flesh at the hem of her skirt.

"But I missed you this much"

He whispered those words seductively in her ear, before he slowly slid his hand under her skirt, touching the spot between her thighs with one finger.

She moaned with pleasure and dissapointment when his hand dissapeared from her body. He looked at her with an expectant face.

"Okay...okay you win..."

She sighed.

He grinned and kissed her once again.

"I know I would"

His voice sounded overconfident as his trademark smirk appeared.

"After all...no one can resist the DuGrey charm."

~~**~~

They almost immediately went home...spending some very `pleasant` hours in eachothers company. Exhausted they stayed in bed for most of the evening, only moving when they put an new video in the VCR.

After two movies Tristan got up and put on his boxers.

"Where are you going?"

Rory crawled deeper under the blankets, mewling like a cat.

"I'll be right back...I'm just getting a present for you..."

Immediately Rory shot straight up. Her eyes went all big and sparkly.

"Presents! Hurry!"

He smirked and got a small blue box out of his coat. Taking a deep breath he walked back into the bedroom.

Rory started to panick a little when she saw the box. Thoughts raced through her head...was he? What about the? And her? And where...

He cut her thoughts short by taking her hand in his and put a beautiful ring around her finger.

"Lorelai Gilmore III would you do me the honour of becoming my wife?"

~~**~~

She should have said yes. Instead, when she opened her mouth, her stupid thoughts came out.

"But Tris...what about my mom? Where are we going to live? What about my job?"

He was a bit taken aback by her questions.

"In London ofcourse...and I'll take care of you...so you can quit your job."

"What?"

She couldn't believe her ears.

"London? But why? I'm happy here! I love my job! I don't wanna leave!"

He stood up from the bed, a dissapointed look in his eyes.

"Fine...forget I even asked"

Without saying another word he dressed and left.

~~END FLASHBACK~~

So now she was lying on her bed, occasionally staring at the beautiful ring around her finger. She knew she had to talk to him, but by now he was already on his way back to London, and talking over the phone wouldn't do. She wanted to look him in the eyes when she said yes.

So she decided to fly over to London and surprise him at his work. With this decision made she finally fell asleep.

~~**~~

The next morning she called her boss that she had to take the day off. Fortunately Rory's deadline wasn't until Wednesday, so it wasn't a problem.

After trying to call her mother to tell her she was going to visit Tristan, which eventually lead to nothing, cause Lorelai wasn't there to pick up the phone, she called the airport and booked a seat for the first plane to London.

Quickly packing a few things in her backpack she went to the airport. Rory almost never flew over to London cause she hated flying, and ever since she had seen Final Destination she had panic-attacks whenever she was about to fly. The doctor had prescribed her some medication, causing her to fall asleep almost as soon as she boarded the plane.

~~**~~

Unfortunately, Rory never arrived at London Airport. The plane had only been a couple of miles away from London when something went wrong. Nobody could recall just what had happened, cause in the big crash all but two people died. The first survivor was a young man called Aidan, and the second was a young brownhaired girl that had been asleep when the plane crashed. She woke up somewhere in England, to people asking her what had happened, how she felt and what her name was.

The girl replied that she felt fine, except for some bruises she had been very lucky.

"And how can I call you miss? Miss ...?"

But the man from the rescueteam never got his answer...
