Chapter 4: Surprises

RORY'S POV

I woke up the late the next morning, and was very glad I didn't need to go to class. It was currently 11 o'clock, so I got up groggily, from having had too much sleep. I could hear hushed whispers in the next room. Curious me got up in my 'Hello Kitty' PJ's from the night before and walked out into the living room. Saying I was surprised by what I saw would be an understatement. Sitting right there, on the couch, were Paris and Finn chatting it up.

"Well, hello Love, I gotta say I'm enjoying your choice of clothing today," Finn said with his thick Australian accent, and a smirk set into place.

"What are you doing here?" I asked walking into my bedroom and grabbing a robe to cover myself up.

"He was just leaving," Paris spit out quickly before he could even answer. Finn obviously looked hurt.

"But Kit-" he started.

"Call me kitten and I'll buy one just to stick down your throat," she warned. He put up his hands like you would if being arrested by a cop and walked to the door, never turning his back to Paris until he was out the door.

"What was that about Paris?" I asked her curiously.

"It was about nothing okay! What's with all the probing questions!" she yelled and then ran, or well her walk really, into her bedroom and slammed the door. Yeah, I'm sure it was about nothing. I walked to her door and knocked on the door gently.

"Paris?" I asked in a calming voice.

"What?" she barked back through the door.

"Do you want to talk?" I asked hopefully. I was really curious as to what Finn was doing here so early and why Paris was acting so strange.

"What do you think?" she bit out angrily as she threw the door open and walked back into the living area.

"Is that a yes?" I asked confused, looking from her door to her sitting on the couch.

"That man, no he shouldn't considered a man, that boy is so frustrating!" she yelled throwing her hands in the air.

"What did Finn do now?" I asked, knowing now that he must have done something stupid like steal her macaroni. But she gave me a look that made me believe it was worse, way worse. "What did he do?" I asked cautiously.

"He-he kissed me!" she yelled. I sat there in shock, my mouth hanging open. "I was just sitting watching my CNN, and there was a knock on the door. He was there, I just let the door open, not saying come in, but he came in. And he sat next to me, and then turned off my CNN, and I got mad, and while I was in the middle of my rant, he kissed me!" she ranted, her face getting red with anger.

"And that's when I walked in?" I asked.

"No. I sat there for at least an hour, just staring at him in shock, and he was trying to get me out of it, and then he made a smart comment. You walked in when I was about to yell at him," she told me frantically.

I nodded my head, and then it hit me, "Oh god, what are you going to tell Jamie?"

"I don't know! I mean its not like I kissed him, he kissed me. I don't want him to get mad; do you think I have to tell him? I mean people don't tell each other everything in a relationship. Take you and Logan for example."

"How me and Logan? One, we're not in a relationship, and two, I tell him everything," I retorted.

"Did you tell him the man you can't get off your mind is back?" she asked pointedly.

"N-no, but I was going to tell him Tristan's back," I replied half-heartedly. She gave me a look, and I knew she didn't buy it, which I wasn't going to tell him anyway. "So what if I wasn't going to tell him! We're just friends anyway!"

"You and Logan are just friends?" she asked confused.

"No, me and Tristan are just friends, if even that," I replied, furrowing my brow.

"You and Tristan will never be just friends," Paris replied. I knew she was right, so I just sighed and put my head in my hands. "See, I'm right, I'm always right, and I'm not telling Jamie that Finn kissed me," she replied, and when I looked over she had a smile on her face for a second, but I caught it.

"You like him don't you?" I asked.

"Like who? Jamie? Of course you dim wit, why else would I be going out with him?" she asked defensively. I just shook my head.

"No, I'm talking about Finn. You like him."

"What! I do not! The guy repulses me in more ways then your stupid boyfriend/ casual-date partner does! And that's saying a lot!" she yelled. I just shook my head and smiled, knowing she was lying. "What are you smiling at me for?" she asked angrily.

"Nothing," I replied getting up. I went into my room and came out minutes later with a jean skirt and a burgundy top that said 'Books are sexy' in yellow letters on it. "I'm going to get coffee, and maybe talk to Finn," I said before running out the door so Paris couldn't stop me. I heard her yell something, but I had already left the building. When I finally got to the line for the only good coffee on campus, which is on the opposite side of the campus of course, I had to wait in line. It was amazing how many people wanted coffee this late in the afternoon.

"Geez, its 12 and you're still drinking coffee," I heard someone say behind me. I turned around and there he was.

"What are you doing here Tristan?" I asked, a little shocked.

"Well, I'm starting school here in a few months, so I wanted to get to know the campus a little better," he replied.

"You're starting school here!" I said a little too happily.

"Glad to see you excited about that, Mary," he replied with his trademark smirk. This made my smile fall and I turned around rolling my eyes.

"I don't even know why I try Tristan," I replied, crossing my arms over my chest. The line finally moved forward and I ordered my coffee. "Two large cups of the strongest you have," she replied with a smile.

"And a large cappuccino," I heard Tristan cut in. I was taken back by this, and suddenly got angry.

"I'm not paying for your coffee," I bit out. He just smiled as he gave the man a twenty, and told him to keep the change.

"I didn't expect you to Mar," he replied grabbing his, and one of my cups of coffee. I started running after him, after being stunned and standing in one place stupidly for a few minutes.

"You better give me back my coffee," I yelled when I had almost caught up. I was running, well running the way a Gilmore runs. Which shouldn't even be called running.

"Or else what?" he asked.

"Or else, I don't know, but bad things will happen to you," I replied.

"Here's the deal," he started still walking and holding one of the cups up in one hand. This made me groan. "What?" he asked, not knowing what he did.

"I will not do anything physical with you to get my cup of coffee Tristan," I told him. This made him laugh.

"I was actually just going to bribe you into showing me around Yale, but now that I think about it…" he started but I cut him off.

"Alright, I'll show you around Yale for my coffee, but I need to go to my friend's dorm first."

"Good, lets go then," he replied turning around and walking again.

"Tristan! Tristan! You didn't give me my coffee!" I yelled after him, and he just shrugged. "Tristan! You said you'd give me my coffee!" I yelled again.

"Yes, but I didn't say when," he told me triumphantly. I glared at him and started running for him, actually running, after throwing my now empty cup in the garbage. "Bring it Gilmore," was the last thing he said before he turned around and took off across the campus.
