Chapter Two: Friends
Tristan was glad that he had managed to give Rory's his number before she had left in such a hurry. Tristan had been thinkng of the way she had been so panicky about getting home on time to him it just seemed kind of weird to him but he guessed she just had plans with Dean and for reasons he couldn't fathom that made him mad. He just hoped that she'd call him.
Rory lifted her arm and turned off her alarm clock, her body ached but she ignored the pain and hoped out of bed. She was already out of the shower and dressed before she remembered that it was a Saturday and she didn't have any lectures. She sat down on the couch and tried to think of what she should do, she picked up a book she had been reading and opened it but was unable to concentrate, her thoughts kept drifting to Tristan, she felt bad about leaving in such a hurry and hoped that he didn't think she was a freak. Before she could talk herself out of it she fished Tristan's number out of the pocket of yesterday's pants and dialed it. She almost hung up when she heard a voice on the other end, "Hello..."
Rory paused, "Hello" she heard again.
"Tristan.... hi this is Rory."
"Rory, hi"
"Um.... I was just um.... ringing to apologize about yesterday, I didn't mean to seem rude, I was just um... in a bit of a hurry"
"It's cool, don't even worry about."
"Ok then, that's really great of you, I just wanted to make sure well i guess i'll just go then."
"Hey not so fast, what are you doing today?"
"Well I..." Rory glanced at the book lying on the couch next to her, "nothing, nothing at all."
Rory licked her icecream and gave a contented sigh, "This is great icecream"
"Yeah" Tristan agreed as he licked his own icecream.
Rory and Tristan were walking through the Yale grounds at a leisurley pace. Rory had already showed Tristan her favourite spot in the library, her old dorm buliding and her tree. Rory and Tristan's cones were both almost gone, Rory glanced at her watch it was only one o'clock and she knew that Dean wouldn't be home for at least another four hours. Just as they had both finished their ice cream cones Tristan made a suggestion, "hey, I can show you my dorm."
Rory faltered, "um... well.. im not sure thats such a good idea."
"Why not? You showed me all your favoutie spots and my dorm is definetley one of favourite spots, plus if he's in you can meet my room mate Jason."
"Well, I guess that would be ok."
Tristan tried the handle on the door and finding it unlocked he pushed it open. Jason his room mate was rummaging through some stuff on a very messy desk, he had a bag slung over one shoulder, partially open about to spill it's contents. Tristan stepped forward and took a hold of the bag saving it's contents. Jason turned araound, "Hey"
"Hey Jason this is a friend of mine Rory."
"Hi Rory."
"Hi" Rory replied.
Jason wasn't altogether bad looking he had messy brown hair not unlike Tristan's, he was only a tiny bit shorter than Tristan. He was wearing baggy jeans and green top. "Hey man have you seen my notes on that lecture Professor Hadley gave us last week."
"Nah but hey borrow mine" Tristan said moving over the the other desk that was a lot less messy but nowhere as neat as Rory's.
"Thanks" Jason said taking them, "well I'm off to the library, see you later."
As Jason left the room closing the door behind him Tristan spoke, "So what do you think?"
I think it probably looks a lot like every other 21 year old guy's dorm room on this floor. Tristan laughed, "Yeah I guess"
"But at least we have our own bathroom no sharing for us, or at least not with anyone else but each other, and Jason is a bit of a slob but the bathroom is very clean, I make sure of that I can't stand a dirty bathroom."
"And I thought I rambled."
"I wasn't rambling I was just stating the facts"
"I see."
They both fell silent. "So what should we do now?" Tristan asked.
"You hungy?"
"We just had icecream!"
"So" Rory said shrugging her shoulders.
"I could eat."
"Great! Let's go I know this great little cafe, it's almost as good as Luke's"
"Luke's?" Tristan asked with a confused expression on his face.
"It's in Stars Hollow, best coffee in the world and where I'll hopefully be next weekend."
AN: I realize this wasn't the longest chapter I've ever written or the best chapter either! But this was kind of a filler for leading up to future events. And don't worry if what's happening with Dean is all a little confusing! Everything will make sense eventually. Please Review! Pretty Pretty Please!
