2. inappropriate thoughts

He smiled a sexy smile and nodded. "That's me, a total Romeo." He took a bow to her and extended a hand "Tristan Dugrey." Lorelai took his hand in hers and answered "Lorelai Gilmore" She laughed at the shocked look on the young man's face. "Yes, I am Rory's mother. I'm really old, but an operation of my entire body made me look late thirties." She made a face while saying it. "No really, you know the story. I was sixteen blahblah. Everybody knows."

She watched as his lips curled in another beautiful smile. Wow, this was not good. Was she really feeling inappropriate things for a guy of Rory's age? If she could slap herself without him seeing it, she would have. But because he was right there, she took a mental note to slap herself later.

"Well Tristan, it's nice to meet you. So why the sad look when seeing Rory?" Please, oh please, don't let him still be in love with her, she pleaded to herself. Rory has had enough boytrouble as it is. That girl knew how to get a guy madly in love with her!

Tristan shook his head, like he knew what she was thinking. "She reminded me of my neighbour. She died a few years back in a car accident." Oh god! Lorelai upgraded the slapping mental note into a kicking one. How could she be so focused on the girl/guy thing while he was grieving? Maybe the neighbour was his best friend growing up. Or a substitute mother!

"Im sorry, I shouldn't have asked you that. I'm sorry about your neighbour too." She shuffled her feet, trying to relieve the pain. He grinned at her. "I didn't like my neighbour, she was a mean woman. No pretty memories when I think of her. Not that I think Rory is mean", he said quickly, making Lorelai smile. "It's just the back of her head. Nothing else reminds me of the mean woman. Nothing. Really."

Lorelai put her hands in the air. "Stop Tristan. I know you like my daughter." In the corner of her eyes she saw Rory wave at her to come. "I got to go now. It was nice to meet you!" She glanced back at the young man. He was tall. She liked tall men. She sighed at the thought. She really should wash her mind with soap later! Mental note number three.

She made a detour to the bar, ordering three martini's and a beer. Two for her, one for Rory and the beer was for Jess. When she got to the couple, the first martini was gone. She started to feel a little lightheaded. "Rory, caffeinated mini-me, why are you gesturing for my presence?" Rory made a dramatical choking sound and grabbed her throat. Then she fakefrowned and said: "I was dying of thirst, off course. You promised me a drink 10 minutes ago!"

Jess smirked behind her and added. "And she was dying to know why you are talking to that Tristanguy" Rory turned around and slapped his arm. "Why do I like you, again? All the reasons just flew out of my mind. Maybe I should ask Tristan to escort me home." She acted like she was walking away, but Jess pulled her back to him. "I'm sorry, I won't do it again. Cross my book and hope to die."

Rory gave him a quick kiss. "You owe me. I pick a book for you to lend to me. Even if you're reading it right now." He shrugged and smirked at her again. "Okay, because you're so persuasive." Content with the agreement, Rory switched to her mother. "So, why were you flirting with Tristan?" Lorelai laughed at that question. "Me, flirting with him? You see weird things young lady. I was just asking him if he was okay. He looked a little lonely."

Rory saw Tristan talk to three girls, obviously adoring him. "Lonely huh? Well, it seems he is not any more. By the way", she added. "I saw Max with a woman earlier. I think he has a girlfriend."

Lorelai, glad they changed the subject, took a sip from her fourth martini and replied. "Well good for him. All that pining for me isn't good for him" She winked. "Just kidding, I really am glad for him." Rory looked a bit inquisitive but seemed to believe her.

The three outsiders stood there talking for a while. Lorelai was really glad her parents weren't there, Rory was happy Jess was. She liked to show him of to her former classmates. Jess pretended to be appalled by that, but Lorelai could see he was flattered. Meanwhile, she was trying to block the pain out of her system. But all the martini's in the world couldn't have made it go away. "If you would excuse me, I'm going to find a place to sit and take my shoes of for a second."

She took her martini with her and walked, or at least tried to walk, to the classrooms. She entered the first one she came across. With a cry of pain, she sat down at the teachersdesk and kicked of the stilletto's. Those shoes were instruments of the devil! She let out another cry -of shock this time- when she suddenly saw a figure sitting at one of the studentdesks in the back of the room.

"God!" She grabbed the edge of the desk and tried to see who it was sitting there all by himself. He stood up, walked towards her and said "Just call me Tristan. So, are you taking your shoes off to tempt me with your pretty bare feet?"
