A/N: I'm having so much fun writing this! Haha, it's awesome when you have a story really flowing. Anyways, I'm gonna stop because I'm in the middle of writing another chapter but I had to stop because I got an idea for this and had to write it down quickly.

Previously on What Did I Miss?

Rory turned around quickly.

"Tristan."

"Hope you weren't gonna steal that, I need it to get the hell out of this school." Tristan continued, his expression and tone still emotionless.

"What happened?" Rory asked quietly.

"Well, Charleston apparently frowns upon fighting-

"No. I mean, what happened between you and Ben?" Rory cut him off, asking the question that she knew he was avoiding.

"I don't know, he pissed me off so I just started hitting him." Tristan said as if that explained everything. He walked past her and took out his keys and opened his car door.

"Why did he piss you off? Is it something about me? You didn't have to stick up for me!" Rory asked, following him.

Tristan slammed the door that he had just opened, and faced Rory, shaking his head and smiling in a way that chilled Rory.

"Did you ever stop to think that this isn't about you? That my world doesn't revolve around Princess Rory!" Tristan yelled, causing Rory to shrink back.

Rory didn't say anything, she just stared at him.

"Fuck, Rory. Why the fuck did we break up? I fuckin' love you! I know you love me! Why did you go and fuck him, Rory? What happened to us? You were right, about everything. I shouldn't have kissed Missy. I hate to do the cliche thing and say 'she didn't mean anything,' but she didn't. You were right about one thing though. We don't know anything about each other. It's not completely one sided, babe. You wanna know why I went to Missy? Because I got scared. Fuck, I'm eighteen, I shouldn't be in love. I shouldn't be feeling like this. But you make me feel like this Rory." Tristan told her, Rory was silent the whole time he talked.

They stayed like that, staring at each other, until Tristan looked over her shoulder. Mark, Colin, and Jess had just walked out of the school and were watching them.

Rory looked over her shoulder at them, then looked back at Tristan, who smiled sadly.

"Go on. They're waiting for you." Tristan told her.

Rory looked once more at him, before turning around and walking toward them

Colin and Mark walked inside the school with her, immediately asking her if she was alright. She didn't answer them.

But, Jess stayed back, staring at Tristan, who stared right back.

"Got something to say, Mariano?" Tristan asked, smirking.

Jess shook his head, and walked towards Tristan until they were closer so they didn't have to raise their voices to hear each other.

"What's on your mind, Dear?" Tristan asked sarcastically, smirking.

"Why did you do it?" Jess asked, ignoring Tristan's previous statement

"Someone had to."

"But why you?" Tristan sighed, not wanting to answer his question.

"I just find it weird, after all the things the two of you have been through, your still there for her. You love her don't you?" Jess asked.

"Gee, look at the time." Tristan said, smirking, opening his car door and started to get in, but Jess grabbed the car door.

"You're a fucking coward." Jess told him.

"You know what, why don't you just shut the fuck up! You have no fuckin' idea what you're talking about. For once, let me and Rory deal with this and you not screw everything up for us!"Tristan yelled, getting into his car and driving away, leaving a shocked Jess behind him.

Tristan drove his car faster and faster. He was trying to stop thinking about the girl he loved. Nothing else mattered except the road in front of him and the fact that if he screwed up he would probably die. Everyone gets to breaking point. Some people curl up and cry, some hide their feelings, but some, like Tristan, lose control. He knew he could die, very easily in fact, but he didn't care.

Tristan turned to fast on a curve and the car spun out of control, it took a minute, but Tristan was stopped on the road, not a scratch on the car.

He was breathing hard, he just stayed there, leaning his head back on the headrest and sighed, before turning on the car again and continuing down the road, this time going the speed limit.

Hours later, Tristan had finally stopped driving around, stopping at Jones' house. He was having a party tonight.

He walked in the house, many people were there already and greeted him, the guys giving him a beer and the girls hitting on him or trying to get him to dance with them. He took the beer, but ignored the girls.

Cause the one girl he wanted to dance with was already there. She was dancing with Louise, they were twirling each other around, laughing hysterically. He leaned against the wall, watching her dance, sipping his beer.

He knew she had seen him already. As had Logan, Mark, Colin and the rest of them, they knew he was here because of her.

Rory knew Tristan had arrived at the party within minutes. Not because she 'sensed him' or any of that bullshit, but the fact that she could hear all the rumors going around.

Ben's plan had backfired, as Louise had said earlier, but people still loved the gossip between the Rulers of Chilton.

Rory danced with Louise and was having a great time, but what Tristan had said earlier was still in the back of her mind. She couldn't get rid of it.

She almost forgave him for what he did, everyone gets scared, right? The real reason she was scared of getting back together with him was because she didn't want to become, that girl. The kind of girl who keeps going back to her boyfriend because he cheated on her.

Did he cheat on her?

Ah! Why did it have to be so confusing. With Dean it was never really confusing, just completely boring and she didn't really love him.

She could feel his eyes on her, watching her intently. On one of the spins that her and Louise were dancing, she looked at him, but pretended not to.

Rory and Louise finally were laughing to hard to continue dancing, so they stopped, Louise going to dance in a much different way with Logan while Rory went to find Finn and get a drink.

As per usual, Rory found Finn at he bar, but it was odd that he was alone. He was being suspiciously quiet.

"What's up Finn?" Rory asked, sitting down next to him, grabbing the bottle he was drinking and taking a sip. He didn't mind. Now she knew there was something wrong.

"Nothing much. You?"

"Liar. And I'm fine. Now tell me what's really wrong."

"Nothing. And if I'm a liar, so are you. I heard that you talked to Tristan today, how did that go?" Finn asked.

"How do you think it went?" Rory asked, grabbing her own bottle and taking sip. "Where's Maddy? I haven't seen her tonight."

"She's not here." Finn said glumly.

"Ah ha! That's what this is all about. What happened?" Rory said triumphantly.

"Well, Maddy isn't here because we...well, we didn't exactly fight, but we're not talking."

"What did you do?" Rory asked straight out.

"What makes you think it is my fault, I'm always innocent." Finn boasted unsuccessfully, when he saw the look on Rory's face. "So maybe I did something." He admitted.

"What."

"Well, Maddy and I have been together for a for a while, and we've been sleeping together for just as long, which you probably knew. But um, today she told me..." He mumbled something that Rory couldn't hear.

"What?"

"Pregnant. She might be pregnant." Finn said taking a big gulp out of his beer while Rory stared at him.

"WHAT!" Rory yelled, causing Finn to wince.

"I'm gonna kill you!" Rory yelled, causing Finn to jump up and run out of the room, Rory chasing him.

Finn ran behind Colin and Mark, putting them between him and Rory.

"Whoa, whoa, what's going on?"Mark asked, grabbing Rory, who was glaring at Finn.

"Mate, she's trying to kill me." Finn told him.

"With a good reason! Tell them Finn!"

"Maddy's home because she might be pregnant." Finn mumbled, but that was all the guys needed to hear, they immediately got the same look that Rory had.

"First of all, I'm not that pissed at you right now, except that fact that you are DUMB ASS!" Rory yelled, "What are you doing here? Go to Madeline's! She needs you, not here drinking!"

Finn realized that he was being stupid and left to go to Maddy's. Rory and Colin talked a little longer about Maddy. Rory thought about leaving to go to Maddy, but decided to let her and Finn be alone to sort things out. It was strange to think that things could happen to them like that.

"Colin?" Rory asked.

"Yea?"

"Do you think what Tristan did counts as cheating?" She asked the question that had been burning on her mind.

Colin was silent for a moment, thinking about it.

"You know, I don't know. I think what he did was wrong, no doubt about that, but to be one-hundred percent sure that he thought he was cheating, nope. Rory, the only think I can tell you is that out of all the years I knew Tristan he never cheated on anyone." Colin explained.

Rory didn't say anything, and just let the words sink in, staring at the blonde who stared right back.
