Disclaimer- Nope, still own nothing. (sigh)

Pairing- Rory and Tristan, Luke and Lorelai.

Reviewers- Wow, I got so much more since yesterday! I just updated my third chapter, and then people started reviewing the second one, which is a good thing.

Callista NicTeryn- Lorelai is working out those plans currently.

Mystified Dreamer- Yea, I hate ones when they are awkward though! Because it takes longer for them to get together!! Awkwardness will most definitely take over a chapter. Awkwardness will be the title of a future laughter.

QueenMischa- Thank you, I updated as soon as I could!

Barbra- Thank you!

Smile1- Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked that chapter!

A/N- This is a shorter chapter then normal. I'm sorry, but I wanted to get something out sooner, and it was a great place to leave off. Besides you will realize why in the next chapter. Anyway, what's a beta? Like people are always mentioning stuff like "Special thanks to my beta " I just really wanna know, thanks! Oh, and the title came from the new Nelly-Christina Aguilera Song.

Chapter 4: I just wanna get to know ya.

Rory and Tristan walked down the hallway , when they both ramsacked into a petite blonde.

"Oww..." they all moaned on the floor.

"Hey.. Paris." Rory said.

"Rory, hi. You gain weight over the summer?" Paris groaned.

"Nope, two of us hit you." Rory told her.

"Hey Paris, miss me?" Tristan asked. Just as the deep, husky voice filled Paris' ears, she both smiled and groaned. She knew the minute she heard that cocky tone, her longtime friend was back.

"So cocky Tristan, I see you haven't changed." Paris said while standing up and dusting off her pants.

"In some ways." He shrugged.

"Paris, please help me up." Rory said. Paris grabbed Rory's extended right arm and pulled her up.

"Hey ladies, you wanna help me?" Tristan wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.

"What happened to the night Tristan that was in our dorm 15 minutes ago. Maybe you really haven't changed." Rory said disgusted.

"I'm right here." He said sarcastically, pushing himself of the ground. "Now Mary, lets to go that coffee."

"Whatever Tristan. See you later Paris." Rory waved and motioned Tristan to follow her.

"What's with you being hot and cold?" Rory asked.

"Sorry Mary, I'll be hot from now on." Tristan replied.

"Ugh, I'm going to pretend you never said that, so we can actually live civilly." Rory tried to convince herself. While they bantered down the street, people who watched them could tell they were in love. Tristan closely followed Rory until she stopped at a coffee shop. "Welcome to heaven."

It amazed Tristan that after all the sexual innuendos he threw at her, she still managed to be sweet tempered towards him. Maybe I do have a chance, he thought, but take it slow. "Good coffee?" he asked.

"The best next to Luke's." she smiled. Crap! He though, she has a boyfriend. I'm too late.

"Lu-Luke?" Tristan stammered.

"Yea, ever since he and my mom started dating, I got coffee for free." Rory explained. Tristan felt a rush of relief over his body, and he broke out in a grin.

"Well one day I'll try Luke's coffee." Tristan said.

"Maybe, well come on! Get in there." Rory pointed at the door. Tristan obliged and opened the door. Rory walked ahead of him, and Tristan followed.

"Rory! My best customer!" a fat Italian man exclaimed.

"Hey Joe. Joe, this is Tristan. Tristan, this guy makes a mean espresso, and a kick-ass scone." Rory smiled, sitting down on a school.

Tristan and Joe shook hands. Joe smiled to himself, wondering how long it would take these two to realize they were in love.

"Joe, get this man your best coffee. Oh, and me too." Rory demanded.

"Coming right up lil' lady." Joe nodded, but Joe had a plan up his sleeve. These two seem like they have a lot of catching up to do. Without interruption, he thought.

"So Tristan, how was military school?" Rory asked.

"Well, to be honest, it sucked. I woke up at 5 every day, and got an average of five hours of sleep a night. But, it made me a better person. The two years I spent there, made me realize I couldn't live like I used to." Tristan explained. "So, how was Chilton when I left?"

"It was ok, surprisingly me and Paris became friends, but it was different without the King. So, anyone special in your life?" Rory asked.

"Nope, I dated like once in the past two years. I had a crush on this girl though, but she always pushed me away." Tristan said sadly.

"Oh that's sad." Rory added.

"Yea. So, you still with bagboy?" Tristan asked, but quickly realized he shouldn't have asked, because Rory's stricken face made him feel like a terrible person. "No, I'm sorry. You don't have to answer."

"No." Rory whispered. "It's ok. We-uh-actually broke up almost a week ago. I caught him wish another girl."

"What an idiot!" Tristan exclaimed, and this made Rory smile.

Just then, Joe saw a connection between the two and decided now would be a good time to bring the coffee.

"Here you go. Two piping hot coffees." Joe placed two mugs in front of them.

"Thanks Joe." They both said. Wow, Joe thought, they were so in depth in their conversation, Rory didn't realized almost an hour went by.

The two enjoyed their coffee together, and made an unspoken agreement to forget about the past, and start over from this point.

A/N- Yes, it's short, I'm sorry! But I'm currently working on the next chapter called....

Just spreadin' some cheer....and beer.
