They were sleeping peacefully in his bed when Rory suddenly bolted straight up.
'Tristan!' She shook him awake.
'What? Is everything okay?' he asked alarmed.
'Do you smell that?' she asked sniffing the air. He did the same.
'Uhh…the smell of paint?'
'No! Snow!' Rory took the covers off of her body and ran to the window opening it up all the way. Tristan grumbled and stumbled to where she was standing.
'You had to wake me up just because you smell snow?' he asked as they watched the first snow of the season slowly make it's way to the ground.
'Magical things happen when it snows!' Tristan smiled.
'Like what?'
'I don't know until it happens.' He nodded and stood behind her resting his head on hers. She smiled and leaned back against him as he wrapped his arms around her torso. Her cell phone rang. She picked it up from the small table next to the window.
'Hello?'
'You weren't sleeping were you?' Lorelai asked suspiciously.
'Am I not your daughter? I woke Tristan up too. We're watching it from his window.'
'God I love the snow.' Lorelai breathed.
'Where's Luke?' Rory asked.
'Getting coffee.'
'Mmm, I could use some of that right now.'
'Walk somewhere.'
'It's 3 am.'
'So?' Rory smiled.
'Alright, well enjoy your view.' Rory said.
'You too. Love ya sweetie.'
'Love ya too.' She clicked off the phone.
'Your mom making sure you caught the first snowfall?' Tristan asked turning her around in his arms.
'Of course.' She said. He kissed her softly. She loved being in his arms and she loved the feeling of his lips when they gently brushed hers.
'Can we go get some coffee?' Rory asked giving him a puppy face. He smiled and nodded. A bright smile developed on her face as she pulled out of his arms and put on her coat and shoes. He did the same and held open the door for her.
'After you pretty girl.' He said. She raised an eyebrow but smiled nonetheless. They walked hand in hand towards a 24 hour Starbucks. The snow was falling between them and around them. On the way back, after both of them had finished their coffee and disposed of their cups, Rory stopped walking pulling Tristan back. She let her head fall back and tried to catch snowflakes on her tongue. He smiled and watched her until he felt his heart ache. He moved in front of her and waited for her to bring her head back up. When she did she was surprised how close they were.
'Do you realize what today is?'
'Our five month anniversary.' She said smiling. He nodded and laced their fingers together. She shivered.
'Cold?' he asked smiling. She shook her head but was proven wrong when Tristan kissed her softly and wrapped his arms around her warming her up. She broke the kiss and laid her head on his chest shutting her eyes allowing Tristan to warm her up.
'Come on, it's getting nippy out.' He said pulling her along with him until his dorm came into sight again. She pushed open his door and immediately disposed off her coat, shoes, and hat. He did they same and followed her into his room. She shut the door and when she turned around he was there right in front of her again.
'In your eyes, what's the most magical thing you could ever have, be?' She thought about it for a few minutes.
'Well it would be a lot like this…but I'd be in a fluffy dress and you'd be in a suit, and two rings would have found homes.' She said softly. He lifted her chin up and stared into her eyes.
'Are you serious?' he asked shocked. She nodded and tried to avoid his intense gaze.
'Why? Did I say something weird?' Rory started to ramble.
'No! I'm just…and you're just…'He said nervously.
'What?' she persuaded him.
'Perfect.' He breathed.
'Perfect? I'm perfect?' Rory asked getting slightly teary eyed.
'I can't imagine anyone who is more perfect then you.' She bit her lip.
'So now that I shared that…what's the most magical thing you could ever think of having?'
'I don't want to tell you.' He said slowly.
'What? Why?'
'When the time comes, I'll tell you.' She nodded unhappily. It was silent.
'Just get it over with Tristan.' Rory said smiling.
'What are you talking about?' He asked somewhat suspiciously.
'You've been jittery for the past three weeks. Just do or say whatever it is that's making you insane because you're driving me crazy. Your eyes dart, your legs shake, and your hands tremble. Not to mention the increased motion of running your hand through your hair.' He opened his mouth but closed it again.
'I don't…' he trailed off and took a deep breath.
'I love you Rory.' He said.
'I know.'
'And I want everything you want. Plus more.' She tilted her head.
'The most magical thing I could ever have would be you. And to be with you forever, and…have everything with you.'
'Everything?'
'I want to make you happy, I want to be the best…whatever I am to you—'
'Tristan what are you doing?' she asked as she watched Tristan pace. He stopped abruptly.
'Just being with you isn't enough for me. In the most un obsessive way, I want to have you, and keep you. Hold you, Kiss you, even sing too you, but I suggest against that one. I want to be your world, and—'
'You never fully answered the question though. What is the most magical thing you can think of that you'd want?' He was silent for a few seconds.
'To be with you, and to have a family with you, and to die with you.' He said finally. He sighed and looked down at the floor. Rory tilted her head as a smile crept onto her face.
Did you just propose?' she asked smiling. He looked up and noticed the love and devotion in her eyes.
'I….'
'Well I mean, if you didn't really ask me, then I can't really say yes…so…' Rory pointed out. Tristan let out a shocked breath and let his jaw hang open as a smile made its way to his lips. He licked his lips.
'Rory, will you marry me?' he asked shaking his head.
'Well since you asked.' She said deadpanned. He laughed and pulled her too him.
'Please Rory. Marry me.' He said sincerely. She nodded.
'Okay.' She said biting her lip. Her eyes were shining as he hugged her tightly and pulled back then crashed his lips to hers. She fought back with more than she thought she had as they moved onto his bed to continue the celebration.
A/N: Alright, so I've decided that this will be her third year at Yale (Junior year). I know the marriage thing is kinda fast but when I started to write this story I wasn't going to have them get engaged yet, but when I wrote the chapter…it just came out. Well I hope you liked this chapter, and this chapter takes place in middle January. About two/three chapters left I think. No more then 20, I know that. Thanks, Kiki.
