Please review and enjoy! Let me know what you think!
PREVIOUSLY:
'You took my virginity away from me, of course willingly on my part, but it was sex. No matter what, we did, we had sex.'
'It couldn't have happened the first time though.'
'So? We did it more than once Tristan. If I remember correctly there were weekends when we even didn't want to wait till we got to a bed we just did it five feet in front of it.'
'Tens years.' He said quietly.
'Yea, ten years ago I was pregnant with your baby.'
Three Ladies:
'How?'
'Sex? Love making? Getting laid? Take your pick.' She said laughing softly.
'No, I meant how could I have been so stupid. I had a chance to leave, but I didn't. I should have come back. None of this would've happened.'
'Yes, it would have. No matter what you did or didn't do, you got me pregnant and I would've never gotten an abortion.'
'I'm sorry.' He said.
'Don't be sorry for me. I managed, just be sorry for not knowing your daughter until she was ten.' She looked at his face. She could tell he was regretting every decision he ever made after that night, and was full of pain on missing something so big.
'I really screwed up.' He said after a few minutes.
'No, you didn't. it's not your fault—'
'Not my fault that I have a daughter that you did mention was biologically mine, and not my fault that I was sent to NC?'
'I was going more along the lines of screwing up, but no it isn't your fault. Fate meant for this to happen. You know I don't believe in this stuff, but for once, I do.'
'Can I, can I meet her properly? You know, hey I'm your pitiful dad, you must be my daughter. Flattered to meet you.' He said. Rory took his hand.
'It wont go like that, I promise you. She has the rest of the day off, why don't we go to a park or something? All three of us.' Rory offered.
'You think she'll talk to me?'
'What about you knocking me up? No, I don't think so.' She laughed, he managed a smile too.
'No, for being so pitiful.'
'I don't think your pitiful.' Rory said smiling. She led him to her car. Trinity got out and met her mom. Trinity gave her a warm hug.
'Hey Trinity, this would probably be a good time to ask me all those questions about the pictures.' Rory said.
'Okay, umm, Tristan?'
'Yea, this is Tristan Dugrey. He went to high school with me and then had to leave.'
'Oh, hi.' Trinity said smiling but still not understanding.
'Trinity, Tristan is your other half. Tristan is your dad.' Her eyes went wide.
'My, my dad?' she asked shocked.
'Yea, I haven't seen him in ten years, so this is umm quite a shock for me too!'
'Why didn't you tell me?' she asked.
'I wanted to wait until the time was right. When I felt it would be beneficial to you.'
'Translation?'
'I wanted to wait until I was sure I could explain it to you, because your dad being back will definitely complicate your life and mine. Maybe even grandma, and grandpa Luke, Dave, and Lane. Probably Jess and Adele, and Paris.'
'So you're my dad. Hmm, well I'm Trinity it's nice to meet you..' She said politely. Tristan got down on one knee to get almost level with the girls face.
'Tristan.' He said.
'You look like me in a way, or I guess because your older I look like you.'
'You seem very smart, like your mom.' Tristan said looking up at Rory. Trinity smiled.
'Do you mind if I ask you some questions?' Trinity asked.
'No, I don't. Go ahead.'
'Okay, umm, how come I never knew you?'
'Well when I was in high school, in 10th grade, I made a bad decision and I was punished for it. When I left as I just found out a few minutes ago, you were already on your way to being delivered to your mom, and I came back now because I realized that I couldn't live one more day without seeing your mom again.'
'Did you know that I was born?'
'No, I didn't. I didn't even know that I should expect you, but I'm glad that even though you're already ten, that I at least got to meet you.'
'I'm glad too. My teacher, Mrs. Wright, well now that you're here, you can piss her off.'
'Ahem.'
'Sorry, but you know Uncle Jess is a bad influence on me!' Trinity protested. Tristan laughed.
'Yup, you're definitely my daughter!'
'How do you know?'
'I know because as you said you look like me, and also because I would've said the exact same thing as you, but tell me, why do you not like your teacher?'
'Because mommy got into a fight with her, and anyone who doesn't agree with my mom is not worth my time.' She said proudly.
'I agree with that.' Tristan said. Rory smiled at how well her daughter was doing. Rory's eyes were wet once again at seeing the scene in front of her. Trinity saw.
'Mommy, why are you crying?' she asked and hugged her moms waist again,
'Sweetie, these are happy tears. I'm just really happy that you and your dad are...well getting along, but then of course if you asked him he would say that everyone got along with him.' Rory said laughing again. Tristan stood up.
'Are you two gonna hug?' Trinity asked.
'It depends if your mom will let me...again.' Rory smiled and nodded. Tristan out her arms around Rory and then kissed her hair. After a few minutes they separated. Trinity spoke.
'Hey mom, I know it's only Thursday, but can we get DQ anyway instead of tomorrow?' She asked. Rory smiled and nodded her head again.
'DQ?' Tristan asked.
'Dairy Queen. Every Friday mom and me get a shake, but today, is special, my dad is with us.' Trinity said sweetly.
'You guys, it's okay to hug! For pete's sake, you are related!' Rory cried out. The two laughed and Tristan wrapped his arms around Trinity's small body. He felt her light breathing on his neck and felt her smiling on his shoulder.
'You can let go now.' Trinity said quietly. Tristan chuckled and let her go.
'See that wasn't so bad!' Rory said.
'I'm glad you came back.' Trinity said kindly.
'I'm glad I came back too.' He whispered back.
'And I'm even happier than both of you because one; I have a fabulous and beautiful daughter, and two; she finally has a real dad!' Rory said rubbing her chilly arms.
'Hey Rory, if you're cold, then we can do something inside.'
'Yea, mom! And we can go roller skating and we can get hot cocoa!'
'Okay, but the park is nice too.' She said slowly.
'Then let's go!' Trinity said jumping up with excitement. The walk to the park was short and silent. Trinity walked beside them and dragged her feet. They walked past a restaurant.
'Hey Mom, I have to go to the bathroom.'
'Oh okay. Let's use the restaurant. Tristan, you can come in or if you want you can wait outside.'
'I'll come in.' he said following them in. He sat at an empty table and watched Trinity and Rory disappear into the back of the building. He sat there for a few minutes when he heard a conversation of three older ladies at another table.
'Melody, wasn't that Lorelai Gilmore?' Jane, one of the woman asked.
'Yes, but I believe she's the daughter.' The third woman said.
'The third Lorelai.' Melody agreed.
'And how old is her daughter? You know I heard that the girl's father was sent to Military School, and then had to join the army.'
'No, that's not true!' Melody laughed then continued.
'He didn't love her. All her wanted was to use her for his own despicable pleasure and when he found out that he had made her pregnant, he just left.'
'That horrible person!' Jane gasped.
'Yes, shameful isn't it. Did you see that man she cam in with? He looks scrumptious.' Melody said eyeing Tristan. Tristan couldn't take it any longer and he got up and ordered three hot chocolates. The waitress brought it out before the two came back from the bathroom. A couple minutes they emerged. They stopped at the table of ladies.
'Hey, you guys.' Rory said smiling and giving them quick hugs.
'It's nice to see you Lorelai, dear.'
'It's nice to see you all too.'
'Mom, I'm gonna go back.'
'Okay.' They watched her go back to the table with Tristan.
'So, that boy, mmmm, is he good wnough? I mean after all didn't you just break up with that last one? What was his name, Nate?'
'Nick?'
'Yes him.'
'Well he didn't understand that my daughter is first, and I'm well aware that this new man will be very open to coming second.'
'Now, please, how are you so sure?'
'Well, nothing makes me sure, I just mean our past relationship and everything.'
'What about your past?'
'Well we dated before. Back in high school.'
'Oh, so he knows the father?'
'My father, no, well they've met but-'
'No, listen, the father, you know...your daughter's other parent...'
'Oh, well yea very well in fact.'
'So when will he be coming back? He father?'
'Very soon.' Rory smiled before leaving. Very soon she though. She enjoyed making them wonder who the guy was. It gave her enjoyment to watch three woman battle over why Tristan really did leave. She had corrected the rumors several times, but every time she heard them, they were even more incorrect.
Wow, that was an incredibly long chapter!! Tell me if this was too long, and remember, even if you don't have a fanfic login name, you can still review!! Thanks, Kiki :0)
