AN: Thanks to all who have reviewed on sucha short chapter! Sorry it was so short. To make it up, I've put up another chapter, a bit longer this time :) Anyway, on with the chapter!

- Begin of Chapter 4

"RORY! What the hell is he doing here?" Dean roared, face flushed red.

"We have a project to do." Tristan answered for her.

"I didn't ask YOU! I'm asking RORY! What is happening between you two?" Dean yelled.

Exasperated, Rory said, "NOTHING is going on between us Dean. We're just here for our project. Nothing more than that."

Dean scoffed. "Yeah right, Rory. What do you call when he has your arm around your shoulders? And why did you say that you love him?"

At that comment, Tristan lifted his arm off. "Spur of the moment and bantering."

Rory said, "Dean…what do you REALLY think about me and Tristan? Tell me the truth."

"He has a thing for you and you should just believe that. Eventually, you'll be captured in his web of charms and you'll just be thrown away like any other girl to him." Seeing Rory's head shake in disbelief, he continued, "Rory, you're probably just too naïve to believe that HE has a thing for you. I'm telling you, Ror, keep away from him. All he wants to do is mess with you. I'm just trying to keep you safe."

Mad, Rory yelled, "Excuse me! That's what you said about JESS! And look what happened to that! We're BEST FRIENDS. Maybe if you weren't so POSSESSIVE all the time, we'd all get along better."

"I'm possessive! Who's the one playing the innocent girl act! God, I try to do good for my girlfriend and this is what I get. Being yelled at." Dean sighed.

Everyone stayed silent for a while until Rory spoke up. "Ex-girlfriend."

Everyone turned their head to her in silence, shocked for words. Finally, Dean managed to choke out one word. "What?"

"Yeah, ex-girlfriend. I can't have a boyfriend who thinks that every guy I'm around likes me and wants to mess with me. Hello? I go to Chilton! Wait...bad example...ok, I have my mom with me. She knows these kinds of stuff and if some guy DOES mess with me, not that that's gonna happen anytime soon, she can help me out. Anyway, Dean, I just can't picture us together anymore in the near future. You're just too possessive for my liking…" Rory explained.

Saddened but mad, Dean shot back, "Fine. I'm going to leave then. But don't come running to me when HE gets into your pants and just drops you like a dirty rag." With that, he stormed out the door and slammed it behind him.

"Whoa…" Tristan said, smirking, "Never thought to see the day when Mary and Bagboy break up. Because of ME, never the less."

Lane agreed. "Yup. Thank Goshes. He was getting annoying." They all went into the living room, Lane and Rory on the sofa while Tristan laid on the floor.

Rory had a dreamy look on her face, looking at a point behind Tristan's face. "Yeah…Goshes, you're so awesome!"

Tristan smirked, "Finally glad you think that way, Mary. I've been waiting for this day." But inside, thinking 'Omg, did she just say that? I'm awesome?'

"What…?" Rory asked confused. "Anyway, Lane, you're right. Thank Goshes it finally happened. He was just suffocating me. Wouldn't it be great to MEET Goshes? That'd be super awesome. I mean, she's the reason I'm not suffocated anymore."

'Damn, I knew it was too good to be true…damn that girl and her wits…but then again, that's one of the things I love about her…' he thought crestfallen. Quickly putting up a mask, he said, "Aww, Mare…that hurts…right here." Thumping his hand on his chest for emphasis.

Rory asked, "Aww…Do you want me to kiss it and make it feel better?"

Pointing to his lips, "Kiss this and make it feel better? It needs more healing that my heart."

"Why me?" Rory pouted.

"It needs the lips of a blue-eyed brunette whose name is Gilmore." Tristan stated.

At that moment, the door opened and closed. "Someone called for me?"

"MOM! Come here!" Rory called out.

"Yeah?" Lorelai appeared into the entrance of the living room, looking around. Not giving a care to anyone else in the room, she focused on her only daughter.

"You love me right?" Rory asked.

"Yes…" Lorelai answered, looking at Rory suspiciously.

"And you'd do anything to make me feel better right?"

"…Mayyybeee…." Lorelai sang while smiling.

"Well, I just broke up with Dean, don't ask, so you'd REALLY would wanna make me feel better right?" Rory pouted.

"Of course…anything. What is it?" Lorelai sympathized.

"Well, over there on the floor is Tristan. His heart hurts but he wants a kiss on his lips to make him feel better. He needs it from a brunette blue-eyed Gilmore. I'd do it but yah know…I just broke up with Dean so I don't want it to be seeming like I'm on the rebound." Rory explained. Glancing at Tristan, she suppressed her laughter as she saw his shocked face.

"Coffee." Lorelai said.

"After the kiss." Rory smiled.

"Kay." Squatting down in front of Tristan, she asked, "Let's kiss!"

Tristan's eyes bulged out. "Um…Heh…I'm sure you're very lovely to kiss but erm…I'd prefer someone around my age…yah know…?"

Lorelai gasped. "Why, did you just call me old!"

"No no! I mean, it'd be weird to kiss my classmate's mother. I didn't mean any offense ma'am." Tristan apologized, social behavior kicking in.

"Now I'm REALLY offended! NEVER call me ma'am! Makes me feel old." Lorelai said.

"Sorry, Mrs. Gilmore." Tristan said quickly.

"Now, I am APPALLED! Lane! Rory! Did you hear that? He called me ma'am and now he just called me Mrs. Gilmore! Bible Boy, you are going to address me as LORELAI and you owe all of us unlimited coffee at Luke's unless you want to live a long but fearful life." She threatened.

"Yes, Lorelai." He said a little with fear.

"Whoo! C'mon! Let's go! I need my coffee and socialite boy here is gonna pay for it ALL!" Lorelai grinned cheerfully as she went to the door and opened it for all to go through.

End of Chapter 4

AN: WHOO! How'd everyone like that? Not my longest chapter but had to get Dean outta the picture. Sorry to those who like him I'm proud of the Goshes thing that was in there. :) I did that to my friend, and that was just hilarious. Haha. That part is copyrighted by me, unless someone did that before me. And sorry about the Lorelai and Tristan kiss thing if you were kind of grossed out by it. It was just me being crazy having that as a comeback for Rory.

As always, REVIEW
