Lost In You
Chapter 2: The Aftermath
Rory walked down the long halls of Chilton and entered her Math class, her usual seat was beside Louise, but today Louise was absent due to a long night of binge-drinking at Flow's concert and instead she was joined by Tristan.
"Hey Mary," He casually greeted her, as though last night had not happened.
"Hey," Rory answered, absent mindedly.
Rory's mind began to wander as thoughts of last night entered her mind. It felt good she thought no it felt great. She had always wondered what it was like and now she wondered if all girls felt as she did after their first time.It just felt right, it didn't make her slut that she had slept with her best friend, he was the only guy she had trusted for years and they had talked about this before. If it happened it would be a comfort thing, no strings attached, and last night became the time at which they both felt comfortable in sleeping with each other.
"What are you thinking, space cadet?" Tristan whispered in your ear, interrupting her thoughts.
"Nothing," She answered hastily.
Rory spent the remainder of the class staring into space and refusing to turn around and look at Tristan, although she had felt his gaze on her numerous times.
As the bell sounded, it signaled the end of the day and Rory hurriedly left her Chemistry class and exited the doors into the Chilton parking lot and proceeded towards her car. She heard jogging footsteps behind her and turned to see Tristan approaching her.
"Look Ror, I know something's up, tell me," He asked, looking concerned.
"I've just got a headache," She lied, avoiding eye contact with him. With that last comment, she entered her car and drove off towards her home. Leaving a confused Tristan standing in the car park.
Tristan had long been known as Chilton's resident playboy, but something in his best friend Rory had sparked his interest. She wasn't a typical conquest; she was independent and tended to enjoy the company of a good book rather than an actual person. Sure, he was known to sleep around but sleeping with Rory last night had been different; they had thought it over before, as most different-sex best friends have at one time or another, and decided it would be purely a comfort thing. Last night had proven that, there was no element of feeling obliged to make it seem like he was interested afterwards, it was simply a one night thing.
Perhaps that was made it so easy to be standing on her front step the following evening.
Tristan knocked and waited for a reply. Finally, a maid answered the door, allowed him to enter and gestured for him to go upstairs. As Tristan reached Rory's room he could hear no sound, she was no doubt lost in her fictional world at the moment.
He politely knocked, but entered before waiting for a reply. Rory looked up at the intruder and stood up opening her mouth in protest.
"Before you start, I can tell when you're lying and if you try the "I'm ok" bullshit on me again. I'm gonna hit you," He smirked as Rory sat back down on the bed.
"You wouldn't hit me," She teased.
"Your right I wouldn't, but it sounded threatening right?" Tristan replied as they both laughed.
Rory was always overanalyzing things that she had previously agreed to; she was then prone to write about them in her journal religiously. It was that conservative side that had drawn Tristan to the choice of a best friend like her; she was without a doubt his complete opposite. But for once he wanted Rory to be outgoing and be spontaneous, like last night, however it seemed that she had reverted to her old ways and was now overanalyzing the situation that had taken place in this very room.
"Look," Tristan lifted her head up by her chin, and then said whilst looking into her eyes, "I know you won't want to tell me what's wrong for awhile, but if you at least agree with me that I do know you well enough to realize that there is something wrong. I promise, I'll drop it,"
After a lengthy silence Rory replied, "Your right, and your right in saying that I won't tell you for awhile,"
"Great, now let's go watch some cheesy Christmas specials on Nickelodeon," He suggested. Without waiting for Rory to reply he grabbed her arm and led her out of the room.
