Tristan awoke early and turned to watch Rory while she muttered in her sleep about an everlasting coffee that was no longer everlasting. After a moment of quiet laughter he left her room in search of breakfast.
The refrigerator was completely empty but for the few necessities for the process of making coffee. The cupboards were completely empty as well; the pantry on the other hand was full of poptarts. "I should have known." He shook his head in horror and headed for the coffee maker.
A short while later he was back in Rory's old bedroom waving a cup under her nose. It only took about three seconds for her to wake up enough to grab the coffee from him and gulp it down faster than he could say poptarts.
She sighed happily, "You make some good coffee." She sat up. "You are now known as a coffee slave."
"'I'm a slave now too?" he smirked. "I thought being your boyfriend was bad enough."
"Really?" she yanked his coffee from his hands and sipped it slowly. "No coffee for you."
"I can live without it." He said.
"Well, I cant."
"That is very obvious. I've spent more money on your coffee than actual dates."
"I said we should start going to Lukes. We don't have to pay over there."
"Why?"
"Luke has this make believe tab going for us."
He nodded. "I see."
"Yup."
----
"Lorelai, wake up."
"I don't want to."
"Well, the snow is up to the windows."
"What?" she bolted upright and peered at Luke. "You've got to be kidding me."
He shook his head. "Go see for yourself."
She stood up from his bed and took all the blankets with her over to the window. "Wow…it really was a blizzard." She turned around to face Luke, a huge smile on her face. "We haven't had this much snow in ages!"
"I know."
"Do we still have power?"
"Yea."
"Good,
I need to call Rory." She grabbed his phone and dialed.
"Hello?"
"Rory!"
"Have you looked outside yet?"
"No, why?"
"Oh nothing, its just that the snow is several feet deep."
Rory leapt from the bed and out of Tristans arms and ran for the window. "Cool!"
"Yeah, I know."
"What do we want to do with it all?"
"Well, seeing as we don't have to steal the next door neighbors snow this year…we have got to make a really big snowman!"
"We could even have Tristan help out!"
"I will get home as soon as I can. But first you guys need to call your schools and make sure you don't have classes. I highly doubt you will, the roads are going to be blocked up for hours."
"This is soo cool!"
"Yeah." Lorelai looked out the window again. Tailor was yelling at Kirk because he wasn't shoveling fast enough. "Kirk should be done shoveling Tailors and Lukes sidewalk in about an hour or so and then I'll be over."
"Alright. We'll be ready."
Lorelai hung up and turned back to Luke, "We are going to make a really big snowman as soon as I can get over there."
"Sounds like fun."
"It's going to be." Lorelai hugged him and kissed him on the lips. "Do you think I could take home some coffee and some breakfast?"
"Sure."
"I love being able to suck up to you like this, because I know I'll win every time."
"Don't count on it."
"Why not?"
"Because
I might be able to ignore it one of these days."
"You go on
believing that." She pat him on the chest and headed towards his
bathroom.
----
"What did you get me into this time?"
"You get to help us make a really big snow man."
"As in put the head on top when neither of you can reach up that high?"
"Yup."
"What
made you think I would agree to this?"
"Um…lets see, we have
about an hour before my mom comes home." She smiled mischievously.
"And, if you don't help I will have to break it off, a guy who
won't help his own girlfriend build a snowman is not a guy I can
date. I deserve way better."
"You do?"
"Yes, I believe so."
"Well then, I guess I have to help then don't I."
She kissed him on the chin. "Times a waistin'."
"So it is." He kissed her on the nose before dragging her back into bed.
----
(Later that morning)
They didn't hear the front door open, or Lorelai's shouts of the food being delivered and that many thanks were in order.
But they did hear her open the bedroom door and give a soft screech. "Okay, I know you are legal and all but you're still my daughter and I really don't need to see you making out with Tristan, or any other guy for that matter."
"Mom!" she moved out from under Tristan and pulled her shirt down. "You could have knocked!"
"So sorry, but may I remind you that this is my house, and I felt that I didn't have to knock seeing as I shouted at the top of my lungs about food. I was also under the opinion that you would not be making out seeing as you knew I would be home within the hour."
Tristan smiled uncomfortably.
"Did you bring coffee?" Rory asked and pulled Tristan up by the forearm.
"You've already had two cups this mor- wait, why do I even bother, you're a Gilmore." He chuckled.
"You've got that right mister." Lorelai replied for her daughter who was to busy grinning foolishly. "The foods on the table." She said and moved from their view and into the kitchen.
"Tristan, you looked a little embarrassed when my mom walked in…" she said and poked him in the chest. "I thought you were used to parental disturbances, perhaps immune to them by now."
He took her jabbing finger away from his chest and kissed it. "I've never been caught making out by the mother, whom I must say is a tad crazy, of the women I am madly in love with."
"You should be used to the crazy factor by now, you've been dating one for a few months now."
"Your mother is under a whole other category of crazy."
"Just wait till you see the whole town together on Christmas."
"I cant wait." He said sarcastically.
"It will be fun, I promise."
"I know Mare." He kissed her lightly on the lips and just before it could get intense Rorys mother shouted from in the kitchen.
"I'm going to eat your food if you don't get out of there now!"
"Coming mommy dearest." She pulled him into the kitchen and joined her mother at the table.
----
(Outside with the beginnings of a snowman.)
"Tristan! It's stuck!"
"What is?"
"The snow mans butt."
Rory watched as he came around the corner and she tried to push it again to prove her point.
"That thing is nearly as tall as you." He pointed out and easily pushed it towards its destination. "This thing is going to be huge. Are you sure we aren't going to need a latter to put the head on?"
"I'm really not sure. But I do know that you will be the one making its butt rounder." She shrugged. "It looks like a tire."
"I noticed." He said. "Go start the next one." He looked around him curiously. "Where is your mother?"
"Working on the head."
"The head? Aren't you supposed to do the middle first?"
"Yea, but mom wants the face to be perfect. She even has a carrot for the nose, last time we used a spoon."
"A spoon?" he packed some snow into the side of the snowman's bottom.
"Yup, we shoved it in all the way so that only the bent part showed. It nearly blinded us, it was quite shiny."
"Spoons are shiny." He agreed.
She bent down and grabbed a handful of snow. "I will call you if this gets stuck."
"You are so going to owe me Mare."
"And what is it that I will owe you?"
"Your undying attention when I get you back over to Yale."
"That doesn't sound to bad." She said and giggled before pushing the small ball of snow around the corner.
He was just finishing the snowman's 'butt' when Rory called out to him again. He went around the corner and smirked. "Don't you think that's a bit too big to be its middle?"
"His name is Joe." Lorelai shouted from across the driveway.
"Joe?"
"Yes. Joe." She nodded.
"You name your snowman?"
"Yes, what a shame it will be when he starts to melt." Lorelai said sadly. "I am already madly in love with him."
Tristan laughed. "Are you nearly done with the head yet?"
"I have been for a while."
"Why didn't you bring it around?"
"Because I need a big strong man to do the job." She smiled at him. "You! Big strong man! Come help weak mother." She said as if she were the female version of Tarzan.
"Weak?"
"Would you stop ruining my fun and help?"
"Sure." He nodded. "After I help Rory."
"Your no fun." She pouted.
"Yes I am, but Rory is more distraught than you." He pointed out.
"I love you Tristan." Rory said loudly.
"Shush up before I change my mind." He said. "This thing is heavy."
"I know, that's why I couldn't push it anymore."
"Your only about 10 feet from Joes butt."
"Ooh you said his name!" Lorelai said and pointed a finger. "Yay!"
He shook his head and shoved the oversized snowball over and put it on top of the bottom. "Now you get to make sure it stays on while I help out your mom."
"Okay." She said and watched as he went back around the corner.
They soon had the snow man completely finished, carrot and all. And they stood around it as Tristan slid the hat on top of its head.
"You
couldn't have used two brooms?" he asked.
"No, we only have
one, and the closest thing to a broom is a mop so that is his other
arm." Lorelai stated.
"He just looks really weird." He pointed out.
"No, he would just be a really good cleaner." She pointed out. "Kind of like Edward scissor hands and how he could cut hair and bushes." She giggled.
"Lorelai, where is Rory at?"
"Um…" she looked around. "I don't know." She turned back around when she heard a loud thunk.
"OW!"
"Got you!" Rory said.
Tristan merely bent down and made his own snowball. "Just to let you know, I played baseball in elementary school. I was actually really good." He added and chucked the ball at her. It hit her on the shoulder.
"Snowball fight!" Lorelai shouted and chucked one at Tristan. Which was followed by another one from Rory.
"Really is that fair?" he smirked and brushed the snow off his coat.
"No, but that's what makes it fun." Rory said and threw another one, this time aiming for his butt. It hit right on target.
"That was rude." He spit out playfully.
"You know you liked it."
He threw one at her butt and that one also hit target. "Do you?"
She grinned. "Definitely, it's a huge turn on."
Lorelai gagged. "You guys are no fun. I'm going to go make some Coffee. You guys want any?"
"Do you even have to ask me mom?"
"That question was steered towards Tristan."
He nodded and threw another snowball at Rory. "Now we are even."
"No, I only threw three at you, mom threw one." She pouted.
"I figured since you guys are related I could count that as the tie point."
"Oh. No, it doesn't work that way." She said as her mom went back inside.
"Okay, then I guess I win." He said
"No, you can't take the title away from me." She said and formed another snowball. "I've been the winner since second grade."
"Then it's about time you met your match." He smirked.
The snowball hit him in the stomach. "Now we are even." She said and giggled as he chased her around the snowman. She let out a small scream when he caught her from behind and twirled her around in his arms.
She tipped her head back to look him in the eyes. He could see the excitement in them, the invitation to kiss her. Only too happy to oblige he bent his head and brushed her lips with his. His arms slid around her waist and brought her closer. Her mouth opened under his, warm and willingly. His tongue met hers and swept passed to swirl through her mouth.
It was a desperate kiss that she couldn't ignore and her hands ran through the hair at his nape before moving down to the wet patch on his butt. She dug a hand into his pocket and he groaned low in his throat and released her swelling lips from his own.
"I don't want your mom catching us at it again. She might kick me out."
"I don't think she would really mind." She said and nibbled on his jaw. "She thinks you are Brad Pitt's mini me."
"Really?"
"Yea."
"I
don't know if I should take that as a complement or a sign that
your mother has completely lost it." He stated through a
chuckle.
"I would take it as a complement." She said and bit
his earlobe before quickly turning for the door, coffee was awaiting
her.
