Disclaimer: No, I swear, Chad Michael Murray is not hidden under my covers, I know there's a lump, it's my pillows!!

Pairing: Rory and Tristan, Luke and Lorelai,

Reviewers: Thanks soo much! Two more people starting reading my story!!

Sooty7Sweep: I'm glad you like my story! And yes, dean is evil, I try and update as much as possible. Reviews really inspire me!

Scubaluver: Sorry about the notes, and I will most definitely put the notes in the beginning! But seriously, does anyone know if they have a basement?

Mystified Dreamer: Thank you! I'm glad this chapter was better! I tried really hard. I think she was a bit more into character this time, but I haven't decided if it's kinda AU, or not! Yes, they meet at Yale, and in this chapter!! YAY! Oh, and I've decided that over-cheeriness is your word!

QuEEnSeRb716- Yea, I did have fun, well not really, but yes, you didn't read the ending, I wanted it to be a surprise for all....

Smile1- I really try to make the characters their well... character. But if they aren't, it's usually necessary. I mean, with the latest GG epi, who would have thought Rory would jump 6 stories?

Rosie4299- Thank you, I'm glad you like it, and me have talent? That's saying something!! And very sorry with the author's notes! I will not do that again! And ok, they have a basement, and Rory didn't kick Dean in the nuts, but she did chuck a ring at the blonde's head, and that's saying something!

A/N- Ok, thanks for the reviews!! This chapter does have a lot of dialogue, and some description, and you will all enjoy the end, I promise! And if any of you are actually named Avery, or know somebody named Avery, I just don't like the name.

4 days later, Rory is still a bit heartbroken, but she has more anger towards Dean, then sorrow for not satisfying Dean. Rory was curled up on the couch reading 'The Great Gatsby'. Just then, the phone rang. "Hello?" Rory said

"Rory, dear." Emily said.

"Hi grandma." Rory replied awkwardly.

"Do you have furniture for your dorm?" Emily asked.

"Well, I have some old furniture from the..." Rory began.

"Oh nonsense! Let me take you shopping for some new furniture. I know the greatest place. It's where we got our living room furniture, you know." Emily insisted.

"O-k." Rory said cautiously.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Bye Rory! I'll have the delivery truck at your house on Sunday morning." Emily called.

"Ok grandma." Rory replied from her front door, and she walked in.

"Where were you?" Lorelai asked suspiciously.

"Getting furniture with grandma." Rory replied with ease.

"You agreed! Have I taught you nothing?" Lorelai exclaimed, but Rory shot her a look. "Well, is the furniture cute?"

"Oh gosh! Mom, it's great. A black leather sofa, a matching chair, ooh! And a matching ottoman! Really that was enough for me, but grandma insisted on a clear coffee table, with matching end tables. Ok, and that was really the end of the line for me, but then she insisted on a full entertainment center. She bought a 35" plasma TV, and all." Rory explained.

"Wow, she sure spoiled you today. But, you know your grandmother. She never takes no for an answer." Lorelai joked.

"Yea." Rory sighed with a pause. "I just can't believe I'm really leaving in two days. Tomorrow is my real last day in Stars Hollow."

"Ok, before I become sad and all that, You just made a rhyme!!" Lorelai laughed. "Ok, being serious now. God, kid, what am I going to do with out you?"

"I don't know, but I promise to call everyday." Rory said.

"Tomorrow we can cry on it, but for now we can sleep." Lorelai noted.

"Okay, g'night mom." Rory kissed her cheek, and walked into her own room, shutting the door behind her. Rory was sad she was leaving, and so was Lorelai, but they both knew it was time. Rory wouldn't be alone, she would have a roommate. Besides, Rory thought, Mom wont be alone for long. She'll marry Luke soon.

Rory immediately fell asleep the minute she hit the pillow.

-Dream-

Rory was coming home to visit, and she was almost there. She pulled into a driveway, and went into the house. She saw Lorelai was feeding a baby, and Luke cooking. Rory smiled, knowing her and Luke got married.

"Mom!" Rory exclaimed.

Lorelai looked up at her, "Excuse me?"

"Oh mom, I know I haven't visited in a long time, but you know it's me." Rory replied.

"Excuse me, but Avery is my only daughter, even ask my husband." Lorelai said. "Now I'm going to ask you to leave."

"But MOM!" Rory yelled astonished.

"Leave now please, before I call the police." Lorelai was frustrated.

"Fine! And what kind of name is Avery anyway?" Rory said huffily, and slammed the door.

-End Dream-

Rory sat up in her bed. The sun was peeking through her curtains. It was 10:43. Rory ran into Lorelai's room, and jumped onto her bed. She then hugged Lorelai tightly.

"Ah kid! What are you doing? I think you're cutting off my circulation!" Lorelai moaned.

"Don't forget about me." Rory said quietly. Lorelai turned over and faced Rory.

"What are you talking about?" Lorelai asked.

"Just because I'm moving, doesn't mean you can forget about me when you get married, and have a baby girl named Avery. I'm still your daughter. AVERY IS NOT YOUR ONLY DAUGHTER!" Rory rambled.

"Ok first of all, Avery? But getting married? Who says I am?" Lorelai replied.

"Well, it will happen." Rory said.

"But I would never forget you! You're my kid." Lorelai smiled. "Breakfast at Luke's?"

"You're on." Rory raced downstairs. Rory quickly put on jeans and a t-shirt. When Rory came out, Lorelai was at the door. "Wow mom, you got ready really fast."

"Well it's my daughter's last day at home and..." Lorelai began.

"Oh no, what do you have planned?" Rory groaned.

"Umm... ahm... you'll see!" Lorelai grinned.

"Oh boy." Rory sighed. "Let's go."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Lu-key!!!!" Lorelai yelled.

"What now Lorelai." Luke replied gruffly.

"Uh-I don't know." Lorelai said sarcastically. "Maybe because it's my daughter's last day in Stars Hollow."

"Oh right, sorry." Luke replied.

"Yea, well, we want our usual." Lorelai demanded. Luke looked at her and Lorelai added, "Please."

"Sure." Luke grumbled. Lorelai went to a table and sat with Rory.

A few minutes passed.

"LUKEY!!" Lorelai screamed. Luke came out of the kitchen.

"God Lorelai, what is your problem?" Luke was really frustrated now.

"Oh nothing, I just want a refill of my coffee." Lorelai shrugged, and Rory just rolled her eyes.

"Luke, I am so sorry you had to witness this, maybe I have a refill?" Rory asked.

Luke smiled, "See Lorelai? This is how you ask for coffee. Rory, you may have another cup. Lorelai, learn from your daughter."

"Wow, you suck man." Lorelai said, "Way to bring me down."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was 7 the next morning and a small crowd was gathered. They were all saying their goodbyes to Rory.

"Bye Luke." Rory sniffed. She hugged him, and while he was stiff on the outside, Luke was truly hugging her back.

"Bye kid." Luke replied in his normal tone, not wanting to become a known softie to all.

"Bye mom." The sadness truly impacted on Rory at this moment, saying goodbye to her mom. "Thanks for a great last day."

Lorelai hugged Rory with just as much effort. "Hey who else could pull off a private screening of all your favorite movies?"

"Only you." Rory whispered. "Only you."

"Ok, well call me when you get there, or else you will be disowned by your favorite mother." Lorelai let go.

"You're my only mother, and I will." Rory smiled.

"Hey, just trying to make a point!" Lorelai said.

"I know." Rory climbed in her car, a small moving truck in tow. The trip to Yale began.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rory took a deep breath and climbed out of her car. She walked over to the moving truck and told the people inside, "You stay here. I'll come back once I know where to go." Rory walked over to a table where she would sign in.

"Hi Rory Gilmore." Rory stated.

"Oh, ok. Your dorm number is 1127, and it's over there." The woman replied, pointing to the left.

"Gotcha, and did you tell my roommate I have living room furniture?" Rory asked.

"Yes, they will be arriving around noon." The woman noted. Rory got the room key, and motioned the movers to follow her. When they got to the room, she told them where to place the furniture. The personal boxes were left for Rory to unpack and place where she chooses.

Rory organized her dresser, and such in her bedroom, her medicine cabinet, and part of the shower, and the entire living room. Rory just hoped they had stuff for the kitchen. Rory was hanging up a shower curtain when she heard a deep voice yell,

"Hey roomie! Where are ya?"

"Excuse me" Rory asked. They must have the wrong room, she thought.

"Yea, I'm in room 1127, and I'm your roomie!" he asked, thinking, ooh, a girl roomie, nice. "Where are you?"

"Oh, stay there, I'll be there in a minute." Rory explained. Rory let go of the curtain, and tried to figure out how she could possibly have a coed roommate. Then it hit her.

When she signed up for a shared dorm, she remembered the person who called her told her to specify on the application for non-coed rooms. She, of course, forgot to specify.

Rory walked out and blue locked on blue. Oh my God, that's Tristan. I never wanted to see him again, past tense intended. But now, whoa, it's like fate made us roommates.

Crap! I came here to stop thinking of her, my Mary. She was supposed to go to Harvard, and now I'm her roomie. Maybe it's fate, he thought.

"Tr-Tristan?" Rory asked. "Is that really you?"

"Yea, how are ya Mary?" Tristan asked. "Never expected to see you here. It's been awhile." Tristan wanted nothing more than to kiss her with all the passion he could muster in a mere few seconds since seeing her, but for now all he could give her was a friendly hug. After all, they were living together now, but he took him a lot of strength for only a friendly hug. She looked even more beautiful then before.

"I'm good bible boy, I actually missed you." Rory hugged him with ease. After breaking away, they both felt tingles, but nobody would admit it.

"Really." He grinned.

"Yea, no daily banters." Rory smiled. "You-uh look good. Military school hard?" More like hot, she thought.

"I missed it too, and I missed you too. You look great. And yea, military school was hell." He replied. More like sexy and beautiful, he thought.

"Wanna get some coffee and catch up?" Rory asked.

"Yea," he replied, "I would like that."

Ok, this was definitely a dialogue chapter. And I don't know if they have coed dorms, but in my story, they do! So, review, and truly I will update faster!
