A.N. – I don't own Gilmore Girls
Chapter 4 – A Day with Tristan DuGrey
Rory was in her dorm room trying desperately to study. Unfortunately for her, it wasn't very easy. She could only think about what happened between Logan, Tristan and herself. Rory didn't know wither to accept the fact that Tristan now is a "changed man."
"The way he said it, sounded more of a joke then a true statement." Rory said out loud to herself.
Just then she remembered to call Emma. She dialed Emma's cell number.
"Hey Rory what's up?" Said a voice.
"Oh nothing. So did Dorian tell you that Tristan now goes to Yale? The school that I go to."
"No, Dorian didn't tell me. Tristan told me." Emma answered.
"Why didn't you tell me you know Logan Huntzberger?" Rory said impatiently.
"Because you never told me that you knew Logan." Emma said with a laugh.
"Melinda Emily Danes Johnston, this is not a laughing matter." Rory said with a smile.
"Oh my god, Rory when you said that chills went up and down on my spine. Where did you find that info? Logan right?" Emma said.
"Tristan told me. He told me he's changed from his high school days."
"That's such a lie! His personality definitely hasn't changed, but his body definitely changed. And trust me the body change is for the better. Gosh Rory you should have seen him last summer, near the beaches. I couldn't stop staring at his abs." Emma gushed.
"Don't you think it's creepy that from a distance Logan and Tristan look like the same person? I swear sometimes from a distance I get those two confused for the other one." Emma said.
"I never thought of that." Rory said.
There was a few seconds of silence between the girls.
"I got to study. I'll see you when I come to town this weekend." Rory said.
"Rory, why do you all of a sudden come to Stars Hollow every weekend? Oh don't tell me, its Dean right?"
"No!" Rory said.
Emma was laughing. "Don't worry Rory your secret is safe with me."
"I don't have a thing for Dean." Rory assured Emma.
"I know. Jess told me he saw you last weekend, well got to go." Emma said.
Rory went back to her books.
A few minutes later, Rory got a phone call. She wasn't going to pick it up, but when she found out it was Logan calling, she pressed the talk button on her cell phone immediately.
"Hi." Rory said
"Hey, did I catch you at a bad time?" Logan asked
"No, it's ok. What's the matter?"
"I have to help my sister with something. It's kinda family business sort of matter. I was planning to show Tristan around campus and around town, but now I'm busy. Since you two know each other, I was hoping you can show him around, tomorrow afternoon."
"I don't know Logan. Tristan and I aren't that great of friends."
"Please Rory, I'll make it up to you later, I promise." Logan was making puppy dog noises.
Rory took a breath and answered Logan's question.
"Fine, I'll show Tristan around campus."
"Thanks Ace, I knew I could count on you." Logan hung up the phone.
Rory couldn't study for the rest of the night. She didn't want to spend a whole afternoon with Tristan DeGrey.
"So where will we start the tour, miss tour guide?" Tristan asked Rory.
They were walking side by side. Rory didn't want to get too close to him, but for some odd reason her heart was beating faster by the second.
"Well first we'll go to the coffee shop, because if I'm going to give you a tour, I'll need a large cup of coffee to help me." Rory said while speed walking towards the nearest coffee shop.
"Ok, Miss tour guide." Tristan replied.
"Will you please stop calling me miss tour guide?" Rory said angrily.
"Fine Mary. Just chill down." Tristan said with a smirk.
"Don't call me Mary either."
"So what should I call you?"
"Just Rory." Rory replied.
"Ok, Just Rory." Tristan said with a grin.
"Tristan you're so immature." Rory said while giving Tristan the evil glance.
"Moi, Immature? I think not."
"I think so." Rory said while going into the coffee shop.
After Rory purchased her large cup of coffee, which was amusing to Tristan, the two of them walked around the Yale campus.
"So you still with Bean or was it Sean?" Tristan was curious.
"It's Dean, and no I'm not with Dean anymore. We broke up awhile ago." Rory said.
"So you and Logan, really together?" Again Tristan was curious.
"Yeah we are. Do you have a problem with that?" Rory said.
"Nope. No problem. Logan is my best friend. We're like twins. What I want to know is, why are you dating Logan, when you could have dated me back in high school." Tristan said.
"Tristan you're so conceited." Rory said while sitting herself down on a bench. Tristan sat down next to her.
"Really Rory. That's not a real answer to that question." Tristan sat closer to Rory on the bench, exactly the same way they sat during their last encounter.
Rory could hear herself breath heavily. She looked into his eyes and felt her own heart beat.
"You want a real answer Tristan? Well the real answer is that 1. I had a boyfriend at the time. 2. You were one of the most conceited person a knew at that time. And 3. Logan is different from you. There's something about Logan that makes me attracted to him." Rory said.
"Ouch Rory, you're breaking my heart." Tristan said while putting a hand on his chest and looking like he just got hurt.
"Shut up Tristan!"
"Yeah, ok" Was all Tristan could say.
"So Emma said you have great abs." Rory said, she the automatically put one of her hands to cover her mouth. She couldn't believe she just said that out loud. Tristan just looked at her.
"Why, you wanna see my abs?" Tristan was smiling.
"Yes." Rory bit her lower lip. She couldn't believe what was coming out of her mouth. It was like she was another person. Tristan raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Wow, Gilmore you really have changed. Or maybe you're just curious. Besides curiosity never killed anyone." Tristan said.
Tristan lifted his shirt in public. But only half way up his chest, so only his abs were seen. He showed then to Rory. Rory was surprised and was turned on with Tristan's abs.
"You can touch them." Tristan said.
"No..No that's ok." Rory mumbled. She couldn't believe that Emma was right, Tristan's body was hot. She could feel her head growing hot.
"Come on you know you want to." Tristan said, still holding his shirt up.
A few girls passed by and were entranced with Tristan's body.
A few girls were commenting on Tristan's abs. Tristan just nodded to them.
"No, Tristan it's ok." Rory said, still looking at his abs.
Tristan was getting impatient. Still lifting his shirt up with one hand, Tristan took Rory's hand with his free hand and placed Rory's hand on his abs. Rory was utterly amazed with Tristan's abs and you can see it on her face.
Tristan just laughed.
"You lucky girl." Said one of the girls that passed by the bench.
Rory was embarrassed and took her hand away from Tristan's chest as fast as she could.
"You like that didn't you?" Tristan smirked.
Rory didn't say anything.
Rory stood up.
"Let's finish this tour." Rory said.
Tristan stood up.
"Fine what ever you want Gilmore, What ever you want."
Rory showed Tristan most of the buildings in Yale, except for one.
"Here is Yale's Library" Rory said.
"So you spend your time here?" Tristan said
"Sometimes. Why would you want to know?"
"Well if you're not in your dorm, with Logan or in your weird town you used to live in, I can find you here right?" Tristan said.
"Maybe …. Maybe not." Rory said.
"So we're seen the Yale campus, what should we do next?" Tristan asked.
"Well let's go into town." Rory said.
"Sure why not." Tristan said.
Rory was starting to have a little fun with Tristan, which surprised her greatly.
Rory and Tristan walked around town. They saw many different shops and restaurants. Rory told Tristan about all the best places to go to.
During their walk around town, Tristan started walking closer to Rory, and Rory didn't try to distance herself from him. Then Tristan surprised Rory and even surprised himself when he decided to hold Rory's hand. Rory stopped walking for a second. Tristan thought he stepped over their "friendly line." But when Rory started walking again, still holding Tristan's hand, Tristan couldn't help but smiled. Rory saw his smile, and she started to smile too.
"Wow how did we all of a sudden become friends?" Tristan asked.
"Don't ruin the moment." Rory said.
"Fine ok." Tristan said.
"Let's get dinner." Rory said.
So Rory and Tristan went to order sushi at the new sushi restaurant. They sat down at one of the tables waiting for their orders.
"So, why did you get kicked out of boarding school, when you were in 3rd grade?" Rory was trying to start a conversation.
"Cause I put a frog in the boy's bathroom. No one knew until Dorian told his teacher. The school paid for the plane to take me back here in America. When Logan and Emma found out, they were sad. But Emma was really mad at Dorian for telling a teacher." Tristan said.
"Gosh I can't believe Emma hates Dorian so much." Rory said
"Yeah, I don't blame her. Back when they were in 1st grade, Dorian accidentally cut part of Emma's hair, and then pasted her hands together with glue, all in one day. It was horrible, she was crying like there was no tomorrow. Logan tried to cheer her up, and usually that works, but on that day you needed more then a few jokes to help her." Tristan said while shacking his head.
"I still can't believe you flashed your abs out in public." Rory said.
"Why, you want to see my abs again?" Tristan said with a mischievous grin.
"NO!" Rory said quickly.
"I know you're dying to see them again. I'll show them to you later." Tristan said grinning.
When their order arrived, they ate in quite. Tristan slurped is green tea and spilled some on his shirt. This made Rory roll her eyes and Tristan laughed.
When they were done with their dinner, they walked a little more around town.
When they were walking back to the Yale campus, Rory was still holding Tristan's hand. It was getting dark outside. Tristan walked with Rory to her dorm. When they got to Rory's dorm, Rory just looked at Tristan.
"Thanks for the tour Mary." Tristan smiled
Rory rolled her eyes.
Tristan started to walk away. Rory was about to go into her dorm.
"Rory!" Tristan said while walking back to Rory.
"Yeah Tristan?" Rory asked.
Tristan kissed Rory passionately on the lips. They kissed once a long time ago. This time Rory didn't push away. This surprised Rory.
When the kiss ended, Tristan was smiling.
"I've wanted to do that for a long time." Tristan said.
Rory had her eyes closed when Tristan was talking.
"See you later Mary." Tristan walked away again, but didn't come back. Rory watched him leave. Then she went into her dorm room.
Emma was locking the diner up for the night. Luke left early to go on a date with Lorelai. She heard someone come in the diner.
She was cleaning one of the tables, when she heard someone come into the diner.
"We're closed for the night. Please leave." Emma said without looking to see the person.
'Hey that's no way to treat family." Jess said.
"Sorry Jess, thought you were someone else." Emma smiled.
"Like who?" Jess gave her a strange look.
"Like Kirk." Emma laughed.
Jess threw her a weird look.
"If it was Kirk, I would have kicked him out hours ago." Jess said.
"I know, Uncle Luke would have done the same thing. Maybe that's why Kirk said I was his favorite Danes." Emma giggled.
"But you're a Johnston." Jess said.
"I know."
Jess looked around the diner.
"So did you tell Uncle Luke about your big news?" Emma asked.
"No."
"Well did you at least tell Rory?" Emma asked.
"No."
"Jess, this is great news, why can't you tell anyone." Emma stated.
"I told you." Jess said.
"That's different, you tell me everything because I'm your sister."
"Ok." Was all Jess said.
"Rory is coming home this weekend, you should tell her then."
"Fine, I will." Jess said.
"Why can't you tell Uncle Luke about the news, he would love to hear about it." Emma complained.
"Yeah, I bet he would love to hear about it." Jess rolled his eyes.
"Seriously Jess, you actually did something great" Emma said while cleaning another table.
"Ok, I'll tell Uncle Luke tomorrow." Jess said.
"Great. You mind helping me clean these tables?" Emma asked.
Jess got an old towel and helped Emma clean the diner's tables. They laughed, talked and had fun. After cleaning all the tables, Jess promised Emma again, that he will tell Luke about the great news he had. And that he will tell Rory once she gets into town.
Stay tuned for the next chapter – "there will be a verbal fight between friends. And drum roll A great surprise that Jess will finally reveal."
