" I don't get it! why am I so nervous it's just Tristan" Rory threw her hands up in the air frustrated at her nervous system

" Yes it is just Tristan. Just Gorgeous, Hott, ' I wanna ravish you against the lockers' Tristan" Lorelai teased

" You're so not helping the situation here mom"

" Honey, it's your first date with him. It's okay to be a little bit nervous"

" Yeah well I wasn't nervous when I fell asleep on the couch with him last night"

" Aha that's only because I was in the room"

" Okay get out I need time to think "

" Thinking isn't going to get your hair done child of mine "

" I won't think very long now out" Rory stood at her bedroom door pointing out of the room.

' I have a date with Tristan tonight!' She practically squealed as she plopped on her bed. He was all she thought about for the longest time. After he left she felt lonely walking the halls of chilton. Paris and her weren't exactly on friendly terms which also meant that her so called ' groupies ' a.k.a. Madeline and Louise didn't associate with her as well. At least at the beginning she had Tristan to talk to whether it was their daily banter or his never ending innuendoes she always put off. He was always there and in some odd way that was sort of comforting to her. The day he had left could very well possibly be marked as the worst day of her life but now that's all changed because he is back.

Meanwhile over in Hartford, Tristan was sitting on his bed reading a book that Rory suggested to him. Naturally he wouldn't let anyone else know that he did in fact know how to read a book but when he was with her he didn't need to hide himself. He loved that about her, she didn't judge him. Ever since the kiss at the party he had taken it upon himself to show her a different Tristan. This one was much less cocky and apparently more fun to be around. That is until she declared her hate for him in the courtyard right as the dismissal bell had rang. His heart had shattered that day. From then on out he was hanging with the wrong crowd, pulling idiotic pranks, just really not caring much about anything anymore.

The day he was being sent away still remains fresh in his memory. He stood there in front of her dressed in casual attire while she was in her Juliet costume looking even more beautiful then she did prior to this. She listened attentively as he told her why he couldn't be her Romeo and swore he had seen something flash in her eyes, but he wasn't about to get his hopes up only to have then knocked down once more. Before he knew it his father called him from down the hallway. Tristan turned one last time, spoke his final goodbye and left her standing there to watch him walk away. If he had told the story to someone else they would sware it sounded like a modern day Romeo and Juliet tragedy with a twist to it. He laughed thinking about it.

Tristan sat the book down on his night stand and threw his head against the many pillows he had on the bed. ' I have a date with Rory Gilmore tonight! ' Tristan jumped out of his bed and started to get ready for what was going to be the beginning of his brand new life.

" Okay mom I think I'm done" Rory called from the bathroom

" Well let's see how well my pretty stick worked tonight "

Rory walked out of the bathroom and down the hall to her room .

" My pretty stick works wonders" Lorelai smiled

" Are you trying to call me ugly but in a nice way?"

" No daughter of mine is ugly. That gene doesn't run in the Gilmore family, and besides you take after me which means you're beautiful " Lorelai stuck her tongue out at Rory

" I'm just glad I didn't have to dress up " Rory yelled out to her mom who was now in the kitchen,

Rory stood at the mirror admiring her mothers work. Lorelai sure was a big help when it came to picking out something to wear and make up tips. She had picked out a pleaded jean skirt and a simple light pink peasant top with a jean jacket and flip flops. Tristan didn't tell her where they were going only that she could dress in sweatpants and a Tshirt if she wished. Rory was pulled out of her thoughts by the ringing of the doorbell.

" I'll get it " Rory practically ran to the door, before opening it she fixed herself and took a breath.

" Hey" She heard him say but was too busy giving him a once over to respond. He was in a light blue buttoned down shirt and a pair of khaki's looking even better then he did before.

" Hey yourself " She finally said back

" These are for you " He pulled a bouquet of pink and white tulips from behind his back and gave them to her

" Thanks" She stood on her tip toes and pecked his lips

" Bible Boy how's it goin?": Lorelai came over to the door

" Never been better, how about yourself?"

" Brad Pitt, George Clooney & Tom Cruise are entertaining me tonight, so I really can't complain"

Tristan laughed at her remark

" Are you embarrassing yourself again mom?" Rory asked coming back from the kitchen

" Who me? Never " Lorelai told her as she walked them out of the house

" Ready?" Tristan offered his hand

" Certainly am " She accepted and laced her fingers through his

" Have fun, Be safe, Oh and don't do anything I would have done!" Lorelai called

" Bye mom "

" Later Lorelai"

Once in the car Rory decided that silence wasn't helping her nerves so she turned to him and started asking where he was planning on taking her , Tristan wouldn't budge.

" C'mon just give me a hint" She begged

" No "

" Please " She pouted

" We're almost there anyways just wait "

" Meanie " She stuck her tongue out at him

" Real mature there babe ": He smiled at her

Then the car came to a hault. Rory looked around and noticed they were at a marina. She turned to ask Tristan a question but he was already on her side opening her door.

" Why are we in Hartford?"

" My surprise awaits, lets go"

Tristan grabbed Rory's hand and led her down the docks

" Now you're really going to have to trust me here Ror" He said while pulling something out of his back pocket

" Why am I not liking the sound of this ?" She asked

" Put this on please " He handed her what appeared to be a scarf of some sort

" You want me to be blindfolded? Are you crazy?"

" It's only for a few seconds I promise"

" Fine" She gritted through her teeth

Rory allowed him to tie it around her eyes making it impossible for her to see anything, then she felt him tug at her hand and began walking again. A few moments later they came to a stop and Tristan dropped Rory's hand .

" You can look now " He told her as he untied the material from her eyes

Once Rory's vision came to focus again she noticed they were standing in front of a nice sized yacht. The outter decks were trimmed with white lights and on the upper level was a table set for two. Rory stood their wide eyed for a moment then looked over at Tristan who had been taking the opportunity to stare at her.

" You did this for me?" She asked

" Well it's my yacht and you're my girlfriend, so yes I did it for you" He smiled and offered his hand so she could come aboard

" Wow it's nice dating a rich guy " She smirked

" It does have its advantages doesn't it " He smirked back knowing she wasn't in it for the money

" Lets eat shall we?"

" Oh yeah I'm starving"

The rest of the night went on magically. Both Rory and Tristan learned more about one another while eating dinner. Rory talked about wanting to be a big shot journalist while Tristan simply wanted to live his own life and not follow in his father's footsteps.

" Growing up in society wasn't easy. People always look at you differently. One wrong move and you are automatically the bad seed. Which is why my father sent me away instead of reprimanding me himself. " Tristan turned to look out over the water

Rory noticed how distant he had gotten so she did the only thing she could think of.

" Tris.? " She stated

He looked over but she wasn't there instead she was standing in front of him offering her hand

" Dance with me ? " She asked

" There's no music" He simply stated while getting off his chair

" That's okay "

She placed her right hand into his and repeated that action with her left as well while placing her head on his shoulder.

" This is nice" He whispered

" Yeah it is "

" Tris, what about everyone at Chilton?"

" What about them? " He asked

" They aren't exactly thrilled with me taking their king"

He laughed

" What's so funny?" She stopped dancing

" Mary, Mary, Mary, don't you get it yet?"

" Get what exactly?"

" I don't care about anyone else in that school except for you .Period"

Rory smiled, wrapped her arms around Tristan's neck and took claim of his lips.

" As much as I'd like to continue this you're mom is going to kill me if I don't return you soon"

" Okay" Rory sighed and once again laced her fingers with his .

The car ride back was fairly silent, both reminscing the events from earlier tonight. Once they got to her house he opened her door and walked her to the front porch.

" Thank you for tonight Tris "

" There's many more to come " He promised and leaned in to kiss her goodnight.

" Night " She whispered on his lips

" Sweet dreams Rory" He turned and walked back to his car

Rory walked in the house and headed straight for her room

" Have a good time?" Lorelai asked

" The best" Rory answered then went into details about her first official date with Tristan.
