Chapter 15: The only thing that has changed is the To: and From: on Rory's emails.

Side note: Rory doesn't have any siblings (this means Gigi) It's not that important but I'm saying it anyway. Just so no one gets confused when I state that Rory doesn't have any siblings.

Chapter 16: Party's and Decisions: Part 1

7 weeks later…

Rory and Korah were sitting in Rory's bedroom after school on Thursday night. They were planning Tristin's birthday party. He is turning 18 on Friday and Rory wanted him to have a great birthday because she knew that back home he usually spent his birthdays alone or at a party one of his friends threw for him and he never enjoyed those. The parties were just an excuse for his class to come over and get wasted.

Rory was thinking about her relationship with Tristin. They had been dating for about 2 months and Rory was falling completely in love with him. Well she wasn't even falling anymore she already fell. She fell the day she became his girlfriend, in fact she told Dean that she loved him then. She also knew that he loved her, they didn't tell each other that often, but they both knew it to be true with they way they looked and touched each other. Now her feelings were even stronger and she was contemplating on doing something about it. Rory had stopped paying attention to what she was doing so she wasn't listening to what Korah was trying to say to her.

"RORY!" Korah yelled to get her attention; she was getting impatient with her friend.

"I'm sorry, I zoned out. What were you saying?" Rory said laughing at her friend's annoyance, Korah started laughing as well

"I was asking you how many bags of chips should we get."

"Oh um maybe 4. With all the appetizers Miri is making I think 4 should be okay."

"Great I was thinking the same thing. Now wanna tell me what you were thinking about?"

Rory blushed

"I was thinking about Tristin."

"Is that so, well what specifically were you thinking about."

"Promise you won't laugh."

"I promise"

"Well I was thinking about how much I love him, and when exactly I fell in love with him." Rory said as an ear-to-ear smile graced her face. Korah noticed this and thought that there must be more to it than just how much she loves him.

"Is that all?" Korah questioned

"No, I think I'm ready to take the next step with him."

"Really! You want to have sex with Tristin!" Korah squealed. Normally Korah wasn't the type of girl that gets all squealy and giddy over something like this but over these past 7 weeks they had become like sisters, neither one of them had any sisters and they told each other everything. Well almost everything, Korah didn't know about Dean or any of that situation, one day she hopes to be able to tell her the truth.

"Shhh, him and Jake are in the next room, I don't want him to find out I have been thinking about this yet."

"Sorry I forgot, it's just a big step and it's exciting."

"It's ok" Rory said looking down

"What's wrong?"

"Well I don't know what to do about it."

"What do you mean you don't know what to do about it."

"I don't know how to approach the subject."

"Oh"

"Have you and Jake?"

"Yeah, right before we met you."

"How did you decide to" Korah cut her off knowing exactly what she was asking her.

"We were in his room one night when his parents were out of town and we were making out and it just happened. We just knew the other was ready for it to happen. How long have you been thinking about this?"

"For a couple of weeks."

"What, and you didn't tell me!" Korah said as she playfully punched Rory in the arm

"I know I wanted to tell you but again I didn't know how to approach the subject."

"Well now it's been approached, and we can fix your little dilemma. When did you want it to happen?"

"I was thinking about after his birthday party."

"Okay, Here's my suggestion, Take him to where ever you want it to happen and just be bold, kiss him, take control. Let him know with your body that you're ready."

"That's a good suggestion, I don't know if I will use it but I'll think about it."

Cool, now lets get back to planning the party.'

"Another great suggestion!" The girls just giggled and got back to work.

Same time but in Tristin's room…

Tristin and Jake were just lounging around; they were watching a soccer match on TV. Manchester United against Chelsea when they heard the Korah yell at Rory in an annoyed voice.

"What do you think they are doing in there?" Jake asked Tristin.

"I don't know, what do girls talk about then they are alone?"

"They are probably talking about us." Just then they heard Korah yell again.

"Really! You want to have sex with Tristin!"

That got both of the boys' attention.

"Did I just…" Tristin started but stopped when he couldn't for the sentence.

"Yeah you just heard right." Jake said laughing at his friends' shocked face.

"Holy Shit, Rory wants to…" Tristin started again but stopped.

"Breath DuGrey, Rory wants to have sex with you." Jake smirked

"Shut up man, we shouldn't be listening to this, She would be so embarrassed if she knew we heard her and Korah."

"Right, and we don't want to jeopardize your chances." Jake joked, But Tristin didn't laugh.

"Sorry man, I'll stop." And he turned up the television to drown out the girls voices.

"It's okay Jake, I know you were just joking around. If it was Korah we were talking about I would have done the same thing." Tristin said

"You really love her don't you."

"Yeah I do."

"I know how you feel, I feel the same way about Korah." Jake and Tristin stopped talking after that and went back to watching the game and the awkward moment passed.

Later that night After Jake and Korah left…

Rory and Korah had finished planning the party and everything was set for Saturday night. Now her and Tristin just sat finishing up a movie.

"How was your day today?" Tristin asked Rory as the credits rolled down the screen. Rory blushed and snuggled deeper into Tristin's embrace.

"It was fun, Korah and I finished planning your party."

"Cool, you know you don't have to throw me a party I'll be happy just to stay home with you." Tristin said kissing her neck. Rory gasped a little at his lips against her skin.

"I know, but it's your birthday and birthday's are suppose to be special." Rory stated.

"Okay, as long as you know I'm not expecting anything major."

"I know." Rory said getting up.

"Where are you going?"

"To bed, we have school tomorrow. Lets go" Rory said as she grabbed his hand and pulled him along to his bedroom. Lately they had been sleeping in the same bed, they both felt comfortable and safe doing it.

"Good night Babe." Tristin said kissing her softly on the lips.

"Night Tris." Rory said after the kiss and she cuddled up next to him thinking about tomorrow night and what she hoped would happen.

Back in New Mexico…

Dean was sitting in his room watching TV and going over his plan in his head. He was going to start the drive back to Stars Hollow tomorrow. It should take him about a week to get back there. He was going to go to Rory's house first and kill her in the middle of the night. Then he would drive to Hartford and break into Tristin's mansion, he had found his address on the Internet, as well as a website that detailed the grounds of the historic mansion. The only thing that Dean didn't know was that neither Tristin nor Rory were home.

A/N: Well that's the end of the first half of this chapter, It was intended to be one chapter, but I decided to make it longer and put it into two parts, I'll post the second part in a few days.

Thanks for all the wonderful reviews. Please keep them coming!

PrincessRandom205 – I guess they should keep they're location quiet, but Luke knows where Rory is. About Dean and Masterson, They knew each other when Dean lived in Chicago. Masterson brought the guns and bullets down to New Mexico. Sorry for the confusion.

Gilmorefan31 – That's okay rant all you want, if I were reading this story instead of writing it, I would be wondering the same thing!

Peanutbutterluver1399 – Here's some trory action! Look for more in chapter 17 I promise!
