Hello everyone well I just got in from work and now, because I love you all so much going to get this chapter written and sent, hopefully sometime before I die. Which coincidently could be rather soon as im sure before the time I'm 18 (26th may) I'm going to need therapy after dealing with my company's evil customers. So to distress a little here is chapter 14 and my answers to your lovely reviews from chapter 13.

Pheebs4u- I think people put Tristan in storeys because a) he's gorgeous, b) he never got a chance with Rory so we feel sorry for him and c) because he never dated Rory we never got to see if they were a good couple or not and that gives us a lot of possibilities to work with. But that's just my opinion. If you're a lit fan by the end of this month I should have one up, I have a rough idea for the plot in my head when I have time i.e. not busy writing this story, I'll get it started.

mz.sammiz- im going with the draco is evil and therefore hates all gryffindors for the time being but maybe towards the end (after it stops being useful to my plot) I will turn him into a good guy (which personally I think he is after lowering his wand in HBP) which will give me the option of draco/Ginny.

FairyGirl07, Sea4Shoes, just hidden, LoVe23, The-Life-And-Death-Brigade- glad it was unexpected, I love surprises, im glad u do too. And thanks for the nice comments

countrygirl-cowgirl, I'm not doing any Harry Paris at least not yet. The same as with mz.sammiz suggestion of draco Ginny. Tristans friends are evil slytherins for the moment. But maybe near the end I'll make them all get along. Though im not sure when im gonna get to the end of this story because the possibilities are endless (what company is that a slogan for? im sure I've heard it before

LukelovesLorelai- glad your loving the LL action im so pleased with myself I could've drawn it out a lot like the writers of the program and had u all screaming at you pc screens like I was screaming at my telly.

Disclaimer- hp and gg do not belong to me.

Chapter 14- Some Explaining to do

Rory didn't know what to do. She could turn around and come back later. But curfew was a few short minutes away and knowing her luck Professor Snape could be just around the corner only too ready to give her a detention, which would put a hole in her flawless record. On the other hand she could stand and wait for them to finish, but that could lead to the same thing as 'option a' if a teacher came by on rounds. Not to mention it would be embarrassing if they caught her watching. There was only one option left.

"Err guys?" she inched towards them carefully, trying to to startle them, she didn't want one of them to bite off the other's tongue she had a feeling that both were rather attached to that piece of the anatomy. "Guys"

They sprung apart as though an electric current had shot through them. Lanes eyes widened in shock (and guilt) as she saw Rory stood there.

"Sorry" Rory began "But you're blocking the entrance and it's nearly curfew."

"OK, well I should get going too" Ron said "see you tomorrow" he added giving lane one last brief kiss and rushing off.

"Without looking at her friend Rory tapped the necessary bricks and simply stated "You have some explaining to do missy!"

"OK mum" Lane retaliated "Although it's not like I didn't give you a hint"

"You did no such thing. I can pick up on even the tiniest of hints." Rory protested.

"Ok so it wasn't a hint but I told you I was into someone." Lane admitted as she and Rory slumped into comfy chairs by the fireplace.

"When?" Rory questioned.

"Yesterday morning. When I was getting you ready for the date with Tristan but I was asleep when you got back from you mums so I didn't get chance to tell you who it was." Lane explained.

"Fine!" Rory said deciding to lay off a bit considering that she was sounding like the obsessive mother type. "I was surprised it was him though. Hermione said he was into me"

"You do realise how conceited you just sounded right?" Lane asked Rory, the mocking obvious in her tone.

"I didn't when I said it but now I do" Rory visibly cringed then relaxed against the chair. "Im tired Lane"

"Then go to bed."

"Im not sleep tired. My body's shattered but my mind's still going a hundred miles a second." Rory tried to explain.

"Then read."

"I'm not really in the mood to read right now." Rory said

"So what do you want to do?" Lane asked

"I don't know" Rory admitted.

"We could play wizard chess" Lane offered.

"Don't want to"

"Or exploding snap" Lane said.

"Don't want to" Rory repeated.

"Give me something to work with here" Lane all but shouted as she became exasperatedly. "What do you want to do?" she asked again.

"Don't know" Rory answered.

"I feel like a 'Little Britain' character," Lane said giving up.

I know it's short only just over 500 words… sorry but I really am nearing death here people. LL in the next chapter and it'll be longer too. L8er…. Remember to review please.
