Rory and Dean broke up, she's going out with Jess, and the kiss at the
piano did happen. Everything more or less happened, and Luke and Lorelai
are married with a seven year old girl, Stephanie, and a five year old boy,
Daniel.
Summary: Some secrets are better off kept, some you should tell. Bad summary. Trory with a little bit of LL (now that I know "Lukelai" is wrong).
ATTENTION: I JUST WANNA MAKE THIS CLEAR, IN A REVIEW SOMEONE REMINDED ME THAT JESS IS LUKE'S NEPHEW! IN THIS FIC, JESS IS GONNA BE A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT THAT LUKE KINDLY BRINGS IN. THANKS! :)
Thanks for reviewing (if I forgot someone I am very sorry-please tell me):

=================================================
Rory woke up at 10 am on that Saturday morning. Feeling still tired she stumbled into the shower stubbing her big toe in the process.
When she came out of the shower she felt much better, and more awake. He slipped her robe on and got a cup of coffee from the kitchen before going back to her room to get dressed for shopping with Jackie.
Jackie woke up early that morning like every other day. She went for her morning run and came back finding Tristan in the exercise room lifting weights.
'TJ, you already impress people with your muscle, why do you need more?' she asked toweling the sweat from her face, chest, and stomach/back area.
'You're so naïve. I do it so I can keep my muscle!'
'You did not just call me naïve!!'
'Wanna bet...'
'I'm going shopping with that Gilmore girl today, you better be nice to me or......'
'You are?'
'Yea, why you wanna come?'
'I, um, no, not particularly!'
'You like her. I can tell.'
'No, I don't!'
'Oh yes you do. What about that girl online yesterday? You seemed to be very interested in her last night.'
'She was really nice. She had get off quickly though, I'm gonna talk to her tonight again.'
'Tristan has a crush, Tristan has a crush!!' Jackie sang out in amusement.
'Hey!'
'What? You either have a crush on one or the other or you have one on both!!'
'Shut up, your mean!'
'Yup!'
'Have you seen my water bottle?' he asked stopping and looking around.
'Yea, up your ass and to the left.
'Haha, very funny.' He said sarcastically.
' Thought so! So look, tonight Nate and I are going out. I'm gonna leave at like 5:30. Don't wait up for me.'
'Do I ever?'
'No, but just be thinking about me and Nate going at it on his apartment counter.....'
'Hey!!! Stop!! You go have sex, but PLEASE, I keep the details of mine to myself, please be so kind as to do that yourself!'
'Your no fun!! I wonder what your mom will say about it!!' Tristan took a sharp breath in.
'You okay?' Jackie asked at Tristan's pale face.
'Oh, um, yea.' He said slowly.
'I'm going out.' He said getting up and running out of the room. Jackie shrugged and left also, going to take a shower.
Tristan sat in his room with his head in his hands sitting on his bed. Thoughts of his mom swirled his head. Why can't I just leave? he thought. Tears were on the brim of his eyes. He didn't dare ever cry in front of people. That would ruin everything.
His mind was decided, he HAD to leave soon. He couldn't deal with it all. After all, he was only 17. He had the money, his father never shut him out of the accounts, he had a car, and he had a plan. The only thing he didn't have was Rory Gilmore.
Rory sat down in Luke's Diner, a few minutes later Lorelai came through the door with Andrew.
'Rory, you just broke up with Jess!! Why are you happy?'
'I don't know, it's weird ya know? I was so upset when I broke up with Dean but then SO happy to be with Jess! Now, I'm not with Jess, and I feel happy anyway.'
'Honey, what were you doing when I came home?'
'Oh, uh, nothing. I was just emailing some friends.'
'Okay, but if you need to talk, then...'
'I'm fine. I have to go.' Rory said getting up seeing Jackie's BMW convertible.
'Hey Mary!' Jackie called smiling and waving. Rory sat next to her.
'Hey, but I would prefer only your brother calling me that. I already can't handle one person calling me that, two would just be awful!'
'Oh, so what should I call you? And don't say Rory, cause I never call people their real names!'
'Well, I love coffee, um, I love to read...I don't know.'
'Hmm, I get back to you on that. I'll just call myself shopper 1 and you shopper 2 for now!!'
'Okay.' Rory said laughing with Jackie. Jackie drove off as Rory saw her mom staring out the window. Her mom probably thought she was going with a friend from school and her mom, but what Lorelai saw looked like a hooker, just really well dressed.
The two arrived at the mall, and Jackie parked under the M section.
'You wanna know what "M" stands for?'
'Uh, sure.'
'Mocha. Your knew name! It's bad but it'll just be temporary, cause shopper 1 2 is stupid.'
'I agree with you on that! Fine then Mocha temporarily it is!' The two laughed again and got out if the car, fully prepared for the humongous building in front of them.
They first went to Hot Topic. Rory bought a pair of really baggy pants and a shirt. The pants were pink, but they looked really good on her. Jackie got a pair of really cute socks.
After four hours of shopping and several shopping bags later, they walked out to the car and put their new purchases in it. They walked back inside to get lunch and to continue shopping.
They decided to eat first, stopping at the small Chinese Restaurant. They ordered their food and took a two person table in the corner.
'I'll call you Jill, since my name starts with a J, and you can call me Rachel since your name starts with an R!'
'Okay, but how about Jules? I like that better.'
'That's Perfect!!' Jackie said jumping up in excitement.
'But Rachel for you? I don't know. You don't seem a Rachel, how about Reece? Or Rere or something?'
'Ree!! I like that!! Looks like I just found myself a new best friend!'
'Yea.' Rory said happily, although she found it odd, to find a friend in Tristan's sister.
'Hey Ror- Jules, seriously, um, I hope you don't think I'm trying to change your style, cause the pants form Hot Topic just looked really good on you. You don't have to change your whole closet because you think I want you too.'
'Ree, It's nothing like that. I need a change. I've been the same person for 16 years of my life! I need to do this.'
'Yea, but I like you the way you are, just don't change because you think that's what I want you to do, if you want to do this go ahead. I'll help you. I know a ton of places that has clothes like that. Next time we go shopping, I'll bring you to the stores, because they aren't in this mall.'
'Thanks, really.'
'For what?'
'For understanding, and helping.'
'Sure. I went through something like you when I was 14. It's okay!'
'Good!' They continued to eat and threw away their trash ready to do the second half of their shopping trip. They walked straight to the west wing of the mall since there plan was morning—east wing and south wing, and their after noon—west wing and south wing.
They walked to Abercrombie looking though every piece of clothing. Finally an hour later and $523 later, they left the store. After three hours they finally decided to get some ice cream and then leave. On they way back it was silent. Jackie broke the silence.
'Hey why don't you come back to my house? I could show you my clothes. I have some great tops that will probably fit you, and that go well with some of the pants you got today!'
'Okay, sure.' Rory said. Jackie nodded and went in the direction of the Dugrey mansion. About 20 minutes later they arrived there.
'Okay, let's bring all the bags in. She said picking up half the bags while Rory took the other half in. They lugged the bags into Jackie's room.
'Wow! Your room is humongous!' Rory said.
'It's too big. I've lived here for over 15 years, and I still get lost.' She said sadly.
'Oh, well, can I see the stuff?'
'Yea, come on.' She pulled put several shirts out of her closet and set them on her queen bed.
'So where should I change?'
'Well, if you don't feel odd with me changing in front of you and you changing in front of me, then in here is fine. I mean we're both girls, right?'
'Yea, that's fine.' Rory said smiling. Jackie took her pants off and put on a pair that she just bought. Rory decided to follow suit and changed into one of her knew outfits.
'Oh my god!! That look fantastic on you!' Jackie yelled in amazement at how pretty Rory was even without trying. (A/N: This is NOT slash! There will be no slash, maybe a little incest, but the incest doesn't really count cause nothing will happen.)
'Thanks.' Rory observed herself in Jackie's three way mirror and was surprised herself at how well she looked in her new style.
They tried on there new clothes for the rest of the afternoon. They decided to go downstairs for a snack. Rory was wearing low-slung baggy pants with several chains, and a tight fitting sleeveless shirt. Jackie did her makeup. Jackie wore a skirt that didn't ever count as a skirt but underwear, and a tie up shirt, which was tied up loosely, so you could see her back.
They went to the kitchen and sat on the counter.
'Is anyone home?' Rory asked biting into a cookie.
'I don't think so, someone would've seen us by now.'
'You have music?' Rory asked jumping off the counter and wiping her hands on her pants.
'Yup.' She got off the counter too and went to the stereo in the corner, and turned on to a station with popular music for their age.
' I love this song!!' Rory said turning the volume up. She sat down and moved her head to the beat. Jackie started to dance around. Rory laughed at the over moves Jackie was making fun of.
'Jackie what are you doing?' Tristan asked interrupting the two.
'Rory's face went white and she looked for a blanket or plant to cover herself up with, but didn't find anything.
'Dancing.' She said. She knew that Rory could see Tristan, but Tristan couldn't see Rory from where she was sitting and he was standing.
'Are you trying to impress anyone?' he asked amused.
'No, I'm making fun of you.' Rory got up and walked to get another cookie deciding that she wanted to change, so she had to get used to having people see her like that.
'Mary?' Tristan asked surprised at the girl walking around his kitchen with not a lot covered up.
'Hey. What do you think?' she asked turning for him.
'I. Um, uh.'
'She looks hot doesn't she!' Jackie said to Tristan who was practically drooling over Rory.
'Yea.' He said fanning himself. Rory blushed.
'That's something we'll have to work on!' Jackie said to Rory.
'Tell me about it!' Rory laughed.
'You know Mary, you just keep surprising me!'
'How is that?'
'You have a hole in your stomach, for one. I would think if I just met you that you're a little more experienced.' Rory laughed and took the ring off her belly button to show him it was just a clip. Jackie laughed at the stupidity of her brother. The phone rang.
'I'll get it! It's probably Nate.' Jackie said running out of the kitchen to get the phone.
'So, are those Jackie's clothes?'
'These? No, there mine. I just got them today.'
'So she talked you into buying them?'
'No, I wanted them. Tristan, just because I don't usually wear this stuff doesn't mean I don't own any.'
'Before today did you?'
'No.' she said quietly.
'You okay?' Tristan asked.
'Yea, it's just, I have to ask you, that phone call. The one from your dad, what was that about?'
'Umm, well it was just an argument, that's all.'
'Okay.' She shrugged and walked to change the music to a better station.
'Mary, why did you get that clothes, cause you definitely would not do that out of the spur of the moment.'
'I need a change. Things are gonna be different now. I cant live my safe, perfect life anymore. I'm scared, but this is something I have to do.'
'But why? Why are you scared?'
'I'm scared because this change could hurt relationships, it could strengthen some, and part of this change is taking risks. I have to do it because, if I stay the way I am forever, then, there's no thrills for me. I know that everyday I get coffee and then leave for school. I don't want that anymore, maybe one morning waking up outside, or waking up with a hangover.'
'What made you want to change?'
'If I told you, you wouldn't believe me. You'd thinks it was stupid because you think I don't like you.' She rambled then covered her mouth realizing that he heard every word. He chose to ignore it....for the moment.
'I wont laugh.'
'Okay, um last year, when me and you kissed...at Madeline's party, I ran away crying. Not because it was you, but because I was scared and I had just broken up with my boyfriend. After that, I realized that I couldn't be that person anymore. Running away from my mistakes, I have to stand up to them, and I never had the courage to go shopping with anyone I knew because of what they'd think of me.'
'Okay.....'
'So, when your sister asked me to go shopping I thought that this would be my chance, but when we went shopping, I really did want to be her friend, and she helped me get the courage to change. So I guess, in the end, the person who made want to change, is you.'
A/N: Rory isn't poor like on T.V, and Lorelai DOES pay Rory's tuition. They don't go to Friday night dinners, so Rory is able to waste money and is able to buy a new wardrobe from expensive places like Abercrombie and stuff like Juicy Couture or the overly priced things from Coach (No, I am not degrading this stores! I like them too much!!) Thanks, and please review!
