A/N: OMG guys I am soo sorry for not updating sooner. Things have been absolutely crazy. I got a job and I haven't had two seconds to sit and relax, it's crazy. Plus, finals are coming up now. To be honest, I had been working on this chapter for a really long time, because I didn't want to just rush it. I wanted it to be good. The thing that motivated me to get it done in time to post it tonight was actually a new review from someone (FINALLY!) Incase some of you didn't know already, reviews normally motivate people to write more. I hope you guys decide to stick with me. The updates should be more normal now, considering the school year is coming to a close. Well let me stop babbling, and just post the chapter for you guys, you've waited long enough already. Please Read and Review!
Chapter 7: Going for the Gold.
It was quarter after 6 and Rory needed to leave the house in fifteen minutes to make sure she was there. She was still running through the house trying to get ready.
"Dilanie, how much time do I have?"
"Um, like five minutes Ror, almost ready?"
"I think so, ok I'm ready to go now… bye!" As Rory was leaving the apartment all these thoughts were running through her mind. She was nervous. Tye seemed like a really cool guy and she wanted everything to go alright. She got there with ten minutes to spare and she waited outside for her date. At exactly 7 o'clock, Tye showed up outside the apartment complex to pick her up.
"Lorelai…"
"Hey, Tye.. um right on time.." Rory said with a smile.
"Yeah, let's go.."
"So what movie are we seeing?"
"Um about that, there's been a change in plans…"
"Oh? Where are we going then?"
"Don't worry, you'll find out soon enough." About ten to fifteen minutes later, they pull up outside of a bar. Rory takes a look at the sign outside and turns to face Tye with a questioning look on her face. "What are we doing at a bar, Tye?"
"Oh, don't worry, there's supposed to be an amazing band here tonight. I figured we could check 'em out. "
"Oh, ok. Sounds good to me."
They walked inside and Rory looked around taking in the atmosphere of the bar, while at the same time noticing there was no band there. "Uh Tye, where's the band?"
"The band, oh! They'll be coming on soon, you want a drink?"
"Um, sure… Shirley Temple Black?"
Tye had to laugh at that. "Of course, coming right up." Rory went to go and find a place to sit while she waited for Tye to return with their drinks.
"Here you go milady.."
"Thanks."
"So umm, did you grow up here in New York?"
"No, I actually was born in Hartford, Connecticut. But I grew up in Stars Hollow."
"Stars Hollow?"
"Yeah it's a small town about a half hour away from Hartford."
"Ohh, that's cool. What made you come here?"
"I just needed a change, I was at Yale until this year."
"That's cool."
"What about you, did you grow up here?"
"Yeah, good 'ol New York."
"That's cool, did you like growing up in the city?"
"Yeah, it was pretty great. Everything is just right around, and there's so much action everywhere you look."
Tye was getting fidgety. He constantly kept looking at his watch and the door, Rory however was completely oblivious.
"Yeah, it's amazing, you never have to travel for anything… I think that's why I like it here so much, I mean.. Stars Hollow was just like that too, everything you ever needed was in closest reach, although the two are still completely different… you know."
"Uhh, yeah, yeah.. completely different.." Tye seemed disappointed.
"Tye, what is wrong, is everything ok?"
All of a sudden Tye seemed completely alive and awake.
"Hey you want to get out of here?"
"Get out of here, and go where?" Rory ran finger through her hair nervously, yet casually.
"I don't know, just get out of here, drive around, I want to show you something."
"Ok, sure." Rory smiled. Even though she'd only known Tye for a day, she still felt like she knew him. She began to think this date was a very good idea. They were driving for about 15 minutes until Tye finally parked the car. Rory turned to him, a sense of worry and confusion eminent in her voice, where are we?" she said as she finally was able to speak.
"Don't worry, I just want to show you something right over here… It's just a hotel, calm down. Tye took hold of her hand and pulled her in the direction of the rooms. Rory was beginning to get worried now.
"Ok, here we are." Tye held onto Rory's hand while opening the door to the hotel room.
"Um Tye, I don't think, um…" Rory turned around to leave when she felt someone put their hand on her arm and pull her back.
"You don't think what Rory, come on, it'll be fun.."
Tye finally gets the door open and manages to get inside. "So what did you want to show me..?" Rory was desperately looking around the hotel room trying to find something, he could have possibly waited to show her."
"You're looking at it! My brother's in town visiting and he was going to be out tonight. So when I told him I had a date with a beautiful girl, he told me I could hae the room for two for the night, come here you!"
Tye and Rory inched closer to each other until they were close enough to way a kiss on the other. Before Rory had ant time to think, Tye's lips crashed into hers. Rory couldn't seem to find a way out. Despite all the weirdness, and awkwardness of the she somehow found herself enjoying it anyway. Tye slowly layed Rory down onto the bed nice and easy and it wasn't long until she found him headed for her belt buckle. She pushed Tye off her and got to her feet in complete shock. "Tye, what on earth were you thinking?" Rory stormed out of the room and was about to head to the lobby to use the phone when Tye caught up to her and turned her around.
" Rory, wait, I'm sorry. Ok, I'm sorry. Just come back with me."
"No, Tye I was beginning to like you and then you showed me you were just like all the other guys. Thanks for saving my time."
"Look Rory, I'm sorry, just let me drive you home.."
"No"
"Well then how do you plan on getting there?"
"I don't know, I'll figure it out."
"Just let me take you home, what could happen?"
Rory looked over at him sincerely and shook her head. "Fine."
The two walked towards the car and got in. They were in the car on what seemed like their way back to Rory's apartment, when Tye's cell phone rang.
"Hello…"
Rory turned to look at Tye trying to figure out anything she could about the infamous call.
"Uh yeah, that's right, fine. See you then. You better be ready for me! Ok, bye!"
" Who was that?" Rory was trying to get something out of him, but she didn't want him thinking she wasn't mad at him anymore, because she was.
"None of your business." Tye was pulling over to the side of the road and as soon as Rory noticed she started drilling him.
"Tye, where are we? What are we doing, why did you stop?"
"Just shut up and stop being so paranoid, I'm just dropping you off.."
"No, you're not this isn't anywhere near my apartment, I don't even know where we are!"
" You know, you're really annoying, get out!"
"And go where?"
"I don't know, walk home or something, I've got to go see Jackie, she's waiting for me.. aah, Jackie!"
Before Rory could do anything, Tye was back in his car and already down the street. Rory fell to her knees and cried. She didn't know what to do. She didn't know where she was. She had her phone, but who would she call? Her mom wouldn't be of any help from Stars Hollow. Dilanie wasn't home tonight either, she was going home to visit family after Rory left. She didn't really have many other friends yet. She was still in the getting the know the place mode. The only other person she could think of was the last person she wanted to call. She decided to walk and try and find a close gas station so she could find out where she was. She would decide what to do from there. After walking for about fifteen minutes, she came across a gas station. After asking a worker where she was and still not knowing where the town was in relation to her apartment, she decided to call the one person she knew she could get to help, or at least that's what she was hoping. She still had his number in her purse from when she had run into him at the bookstore and he was the only person she could think of. She turned on her phone and pressed the ten buttons before hearing a ringing on the other end. She tried his phone first and when she didn't get him, she decided to try the bookstore.
"Ken's Books, how may I help you?"
"Hi, I'm looking for Jess Mariano, It's really important, an emergency even."
"Umm, hold on, I'll go get him, who's calling?"
"Rory.. Rory Gilmore."
A few seconds later, Jess was on the line. He could hear her sniffle on the other end, and assumed she was crying.
"Rory, what's wrong, is everything ok?"
"Jess, I need you…"
