Chapter 7

So they get back to the Gilmore House. Tristan and Rory sit together on the couch while Lorelei sits on the table. They sit there for a couple of minutes in silence. Lorelei broke the silence.

Lorelei: ok. Tristan tell me about yourself.

Tristan: well I live in Hartford with my mom and dad. I go to Chilton. That's basically my life.

Lorelei: ok. Umm, so by how you guys are all over each other and how you guys have big smiles on your faces. You've either done something or thinking about doing something or you guys maybe boyfriend and girlfriend. So either you or Tristan better tell me. And Rory you know that you can tell me everything. We always had this friendship.

Rory looks at Tristan and nods.

Rory: umm, well mom I know that I can tell you anything. But please promise that you won't get mad about this.

Lorelei: I wont I promise. So tell me.

Rory: ok mom well . . . me and Tristan umm, had . . . we had sex.

Lorelei just sat there for a minute trying to understand what he daughter just said.

Rory: are you going to say anything.

Tristan and Rory did have smiles on their faces but they quickly faded away when Lorelei didn't say anything.

Lorelei: yeah sorry I'm just trying to comprehend what you just said.

Rory: I said that me and Tristan-

Lorelei: (cut them off) I know what you said. I just can't believe that my 16 year old daughter had sex with someone she doesn't even know. That's all.

Rory: I know that I don't know him but I felt differently with him then I felt with Dean. Tristan just looked at her. When she told her mother that. He knew that he felt something different whenever he was around her but he didn't know how she felt. Know he knew.

Lorelei: but you guys were safe right.

Before Rory could say anything Tristan jumped in real quick.

Tristan: yes. We were safe. You don't have to worry about that. I'm sorry Lorelei.

Lorelei: ok. At least you were safe.

Tristan: ok and I fell that same way about Rory. I know I don't know her but I have a different feeling whenever I'm around her. And I know that she was a virgin. And she knows that I'm experienced. And I tired to go as easy on her as I could. Because I don't want anything to hurt Rory including me. I promise.

Lorelei: well I understand. Rory are you sire.

Rory: yeah I am but I'm gonna be alright.

Lorelei: yeah you will. Not to embarrass you or Tristan. But Rory you're going on birth control.

Rory: Ok. I can deal with that.

Tristan just sat there listening. Lorelei went into the kitchen and left Rory and Tristan in the living room.

Tristan: Rory can I ask you something.

Rory: yeah sure.

Tristan: did you mean what you said about you had different feeling around me then you did around Dean.

Rory: yeah did you mean it too.

Tristan: yeah, I also meant when I said that I didn't want anything to hurt you.

Rory: I like that.

Tristan: I'm happy. Can I ask you one more question?

Rory: yeah sure what is it?

Tristan: would you go out with me.

Rory: what do you mean? Like boyfriend, girlfriend or just out on a date.

Tristan: boyfriend, girlfriend.

Rory just sat there looking at Tristan first at his eyes then concentrating on his lips. She then captured his lips. She was surprised that he didn't kiss back. She pulled his bottom lip between her teeth and lips. Signaling him back.

Tristan: I take that as a yes.

Rory: I take that as your right.
Tristan captured her lips in his. Deepening the kiss. He tightened his grip on her hips. She wrapped her arms around his neck and ran her fingers through his hair. They broke away when they needed air. And also when they heard someone clear their throat.

Lorelei: yeah hey I'm back

Rory: sorry mom.

Lorelei: that's alright. So what are you guys?

Rory: Boyfriend, Girlfriend.

Lorelei: oh ok. I didn't catch your last name Tristan. What is it?

Tristan: DuGrey.

Lorelei: that sounds familiar.

Tristan: well my mom's name is Faith and my dad's name is Chris and my grandfather's name is JanLan. (Sorry guys didn't know what Tristan's parent's names were).

Lorelei: I thought that your last name sounds familiar. I think that I went to school with your father.

Tristan: well I'll see. I'll ask him when I get home.

Lorelei: oh ok. So you guys going to stay, you wanna watch some movies, or are you going to show Tristan around town.

Rory: I don't know. Tristan what do you want to do?

Tristan: I don't care whatever you wanna do.

Rory: well its only 8:00. What time do you have to be home?

Tristan: well whenever. But if I need to I can sleep here because I have a uniform in the back of my car. But that's if your mom doesn't mind.

Lorelei: No, I don't mind.

Rory: ok so know that's settled. Do you wanna go for a walk then we can go to Doose's and pick some stiff up then come back here and watch movies?

Tristan: yeah sure that sounds great.
