Phones Ruin Everything:

'Uh wow.' Rory breathed staring at the ceiling. She turned over a little to look at Tristan.

'Wow? That's it?' Tristan teased putting a piece of damp hair behind Rory's ear. She smiled.

'Well, I mean, I've definitely had better...' she smiled. He frowned and started to tickle her .

'Tristan—stop!….stop!' she said in between fits of giggles. He finally stopped tickling her and kissed her instead.

'Now that I can deal with.' Rory said.

'So I think we should revisit the discussion we had not to long ago. Was the sex bad? I mean taking tonight into account.' Rory took her time to make him wait for her answer.

'Rory?' he asked thinking she'd fallen asleep.

'I'm right here.'

'Are you gonna answer me any time soon?'

'Fine…the sex was amazing. Happy?' Rory asked afraid his ego would inflate again.

'Extremely.' He said smiling and giving her a light kiss.

'So umm, I guess we kinda bumped our relationship up to the next level.' Rory said pulling the covers up more because they had been kicked down when Tristan tickled her.

'Why do you say that?'

'What you've never heard the saying, "sex changes everything"? I mean you must have.'

'Yea I have, but I enjoyed what we had before.'

'So this doesn't change anything?'

'Not if you don't want it too.' Tristan said comforting her. She smiled. He reached his arm out and brought her closer to him. She shifted slightly and went flush against him, their skin touching.

'Thank you for tonight.'

'You know, Mary, you don't need to thank me for having sex with you; it's really my pleasure. In fact anytime you'd like to try again, I'd be more than happy to oblige.' He said in a husky voice. Rory rolled her eyes.

'I'll keep that in mind.' She said sarcastically.

'Think the girls know what we were doing tonight?' Tristan asked as if a conspiracy.

'Uh let's think about this one. Girls, why don't you guys go out with some friends tonight? You know, and maybe you'd like to sleep over too? Yea that screams they want to have sex to me.'

'I didn't say those exact words.' Tristan said.

'Yea, but they basically said the same things. Leave home so your mom and I can have sex.' Rory said smiling evilly.

'Well now that we have the house to ourselves the entire night, how about we make use of it?'

'I thought that's what we did just a few minutes ago.'

'Practice makes perfect. Soon we won't even have to ask the girls to leave the house, we'll have mastered it so well.' Tristan said persuading her. Rory rolled her eyes.

'See unlike you, I have willpower to say no.' Tristan's hope was deflated.

'But, this time I'm not.' Rory said smiling brightly as her hand came dangerously close to him. Tristan groaned and rolled over trapping Rory underneath him. He brought his lips millimeters from hers.

'Not nice.' He whispered. Rory smiled and leaned up catching his lips on hers as he grinded himself into her making them both let out a moan. With the break of the kiss and the re capturing, the kiss suddenly escalated past R. His hand ran down the side of her body resting on her thigh making small circles going towards her core. Rory felt the blood rush to her abdomen and she bucked her hips. She wrapped her leg around his waist bringing him closer to her as he thrust inside of her. They continued this cycle into the wee hours of the morning.

They were catching their breath after another round of "sleeping" when the phone rang. Rory let out a sigh and looked at the clock which had 3:54 glowing in red.

'Who the hell could that be?' Tristan asked as Rory picked up the phone.

'Hello?' she answered.

'Rory?' a desperate voice asked.

'Who is this?'

'It's me, Lane.' Rory sat up quickly.

'Oh my god, is everything okay?'

'I haven't talked to you in a while, but I just thought I should call you.'

'O-kay…Is there a specific reason why you're calling a four in the morning?'

'A girl came to my door about 20 minutes ago screaming for help. They brought me to an unconscious girl lying in the next yard over. Rory, I think it's your daughter.'

'What?'

'Tori tried to commit suicide.' Lane said hurriedly and then hung up the phone when she heard the phone hit the floor.

So I guess right now would be a good time to address the "poll" result I had a few chapters back. So majority wanted them to get married (duh), those who said that wanted them to move in together (which happened…), some of you wanted Rory to get pregnant, a few people thought that something should happen to bring Rory/Tristan closer together, and only a couple of people wanted something dramatic to happen. I think the way I'm doing it, everyone's happy…kind of. Having said this, no one will die. Keep that in mind, Tori WILL be fine. :0) Please review! Thanks, Kiki
