Chapter Twenty One: Coming Clean

It was Wednesday, Rory and Tristan were sitting at a table in the far secluded corner of the library, completely absorbed in their own little world, it was the first day since their argument that they hadn't sat with his friends at lunch. "So I was thinking?" Rory said as Tristan nuzzled her neck.

"Mmmm."

"That maybe it was time that I told my grandparents we were seeing each other."

Rory tensed as Tristan's lips stopped abruptly on her neck, "they don't all ready know?"

"Well...."

"I can't believe you haven't told them that we're seeing each other."

"Well it only ever came up once and we'd only been going out for a few days I didn't want to jinx things."

"Jinx them? Damn it Rory, I can't believe that you haven't told them and not only that, but you didn't tell me that you hadn't told them."

"I didn't want you to be angry; it's not a big deal,"

"Not a big deal, God Rory you're ashamed of me."

Rory turned to Tristan and cupped his face in her hands forcing his angry eyes to look into hers. "Never Tristan, I'm not ashamed of you, how can you even think that?"

"God I'm sorry I didn't mean it, I just can't believe that you haven't told them."

"But I will, this weekend at dinner."

"Do you want me to come?"

Rory beamed at him "would you?"

"All you had to do was ask."

Rory was once again nervous, but this time not for herself, for Tristan. She fidgeted uncomfortably in her seat in the car, next to Tristan. Tristan removed one hand from the steering wheel and placed it over her flighty ones, stilling them. "Rory, do you know anyone more charming then me?"

"Well... no, I just hope they like you."

"Of course they'll like me... I'm a DuGrey."

Rory visibly relaxed, "sometimes I forget, just don't be rude, or chew with your mouth open or burp or do any of that and for god sakes keep your feet to yourself."

The door swung open, "Rory, Lorelai how nice to see you, come in, come in."

Rory and Lorelai stepped inside and Tristan followed suit. Emily looked visibly surprised "Rory, who's your friend?"

"Well Grandma" Rory paused and took a deep breath, "This is Tristan DuGrey.... we've been seeing each other for a little while now."

Emily beamed "how lovely."

The foursome entered the living room, where Richard was seated on a couch. "Richard darling Rory has bought her boyfriend....Tristan DuGrey."

Richard stood, "DuGrey you say? Janlan's grandson?"

"Yes sir."

"A fine man, how is he?"

"Very well I believe."

"Well do sit down."

Dessert was being served and so far the dinner was going exceptionally well. Tristan had even managed to keep his feet to himself throughout the entire meal. He had endured and answered politely all kinds of questions about his grandfather, his father, school, what college he wanted to go to, whether he planned on going into the family business etc. Rory could tell both of her grandparents loved him she was even a little impressed herself and she'd heard most of it before. As they were finishing dessert, Emily said "Well Rory I like Tristan much better then that floppy haired Dan you were dating for a while."

Rory smiled at her grandmother and looked over the table at Tristan, "Me too."
