A/N:

I have just one thing to say to all my reviewers: Thank you so much for sticking with me throughout this entire story! I love you all so much! Ow and one more *happy* thing:

I'VE DECIDED TO WRITE A SEQUEL!!!

THE FIRST PART IS ALREADY UP...IT'S CALLED "NEVER ASK WHY"

~~**~~

"Tristan!"

She banged on the door until her fists started to hurt. He had to be there! He couldn't not be there. He needed to be there for her to tell him! She needed to do this now before she would forget again, like she did the last time.

Suddenly the door opened and Rory tumbled inside. She quickly got up and looked at a very wet and almost naked Tristan. She didn't even notice the look of surprise in his eyes as she took in his appearance. God...she had forgotten how handsome he was when he had just taken a shower. A white towel was wrapped around his hips and small drops of water found their way down his muscular tanned body.

"Rory...what are you doing here?"

She tore her gaze from his abs and looked up at him. For a second she was confused, her thoughts were racing in her head and she was unable to form a sentence.

"I...I eh...I mean..."

Then it all came back to her. The feeling of belonging to him. Of wanting to be his.

"I never got to tell you Tristan...that my answer was yes..."

If she hadn't been at the verge of breaking down the non understanding look on Tristans face would have been hilarious. It took him a couple of seconds before it finally dawned on him.

"Oh baby...you mean..."

She looked up again and took a step closer towards him.

"Yes Tristan...it's always been yes."

He pulled her in his arms and held her, causing her tears to mingle with the water from the shower. She didn't even know why she was crying. She had never been so happy, and for the first time in months she felt exactly at place.

~~**~~

"There's someone here to see you"

Rory looked up at Tristan with surprise in her eyes.

"Someone for me? Here? Who?"

Before Tristan could answer, Lorelai, who had been waiting in his bedroom, could not contain herself anymore and burst through the door.

Rory untangled herself from Tristans arms and shrieked.

"Mom!!!"

"Rory! Ow honey"

Lorelai flung her arms around Rory and hugged her tight.

The two of them started crying, making Tristan a little unnerved. He understood though. For months Lorelai had thought she was dead, and when they found out she was alive she couldn't go and see her because they were both too scared that they would lose her to Ben. And now they were finally together again.

~~**~~

Rory sat in Tristans arms while holding Lorelai's hand. She was so happy now everything had finally fallen into place. She was with the man she loved, with her mom that she possibly loved even more or at least just as much, and they were going back to Stars Hollow to get married.

When Rory had asked Tristan where they would marry and settle down he had answered Stars Hollow without thinking twice. Ever since he had lost her he had realized that she would want to be there, with the people she loved surrounding her. And when he saw the happy look in her eyes he knew he had made the right decision.

~~**~~

A couple of weeks later Rory felt like having a deja-vu. She was once again in a beautiful white weddingdress, wearing the diamond collier Tristan had given her on their sixth month anniversary and looking at herself in the mirror. This time, the happy smile all young brides seemed to carry was right in place. She knew that this time there would be no doubts in her mind as she would be walking down the aisle.

The moment the music started to play Luke, who had practically been in tears when Rory had asked him to give her away, took her arm and they slowly made their way towards Tristan.

Rory had never seen a more loving look in his eyes than she did right then and there. Tristan was unable to tear his gaze away from her and he didn't want to. She was beautiful, like a fairytale princess, and she was all his.

He silently thanked God when he took her frail hand in his and she smiled up at him. He smiled back before softly squeezing her hand. She immediately squeezed back, reassuring him once again that this was reality, not a dream.

All of Stars Hollows inhabitants were in tears when Tristan spoke his weddingvows.

"I love you Rory. I think I've loved you since the first time I met you...but ofcourse then we were little and I just showed it by cutting off your hair."

Everybody smiled, especially Lorelai who remembered how horrified Rory was when she found out she was no longer `a girl` as she had put it back then.

"When we went to highschool together and I kissed you...you ran away. I was scared that I had lost you forever"

His grip on his became a little bit stronger as he continued

"ofcourse...that didn't even come close to the feeling I had when I really lost you. When I heard that you had been in that planecrash my whole world fell apart"

He closed his eyes and swallowed.

"I had to live in a world without you, a world that was so dark and lifeless that I wasn't sure that I would ever find the strength to continue. Thanks to my father, eventhough I didn't agree with him at the time, I realized that I needed closure. I came to London to say goodbye to you, by talking to the two persons that survived the planecrash...Aidan and Lydia. I never thought you would be Lydia. I never thought I would find you back but I did."

He opened his eyes again and looked directly at her with more love and longing in his eyes than she had seen in a long time.

"I found you back...and I won't ever let you go again. I want to make you happy. I promise that from now on I will do anything to keep you in my life. You are my soulmate, I will talk to you about everything that's going on in my life cause I know I can. I love you Rory...and nobody can understand just how happy I am that you're marrying me here today"

Rory smiled back at him and just said one sentence that showed her love and devotion for him.

"I think I can...cause I'm feeling the same"

The happy couple gazed at eachothers eyes while the priest held his speech, from which both of them never heard a word. The only thing they were aware of was that they were finally together, and nothing would break them up again.
