XxXxXxXxX
They were all gathered in Tristan's car leaving Star's Hollow. Tristan and Rory could hear the slight whispering coming from Lorelai and Jamie in the back seat. Tristan looked over at Rory, she looked so relaxed her guard was down and that didn't happen around him ever!
"What are you thinking about Miss Gilmore?" Tristan asked curiously.
"Nothing important Mr. Dugrey" Rory said smiling reaching for his hand.
In the 'words' of Taylor Swift "He's got a one-hand feel on the steering wheel the other on my heart" those lyrics hit a little close to home for Rory and for once she took comfort than she didn't want to run. Run from this man or this relationship if she could even call it that.

"Miss Lorelai" Jamie said.
"Yeah Jamie?" lorelai asked the younger child.
"Can I call you nanny?" Jamie asked quietly.
"Sure Jamie I'd like that" Lorelai smiled at the boy hopefully a boy she would get to know better.
"Really? Cool" Jamie said.
"So what do you want to see first?" Lorelai asked.
"I got up really early and made a list all by my self" Jamie said proudly.
"Did you?" Lorelai asked sounding excited for the child's amusement.
"Yeah look," He said handing her the picture with all the animals he wanted to see in order from most important to least importance.
"Wow good job little man!" Lorelai said staring at the picture. It reminded her of Rory, she had done the same thing the day they went to the zoo for the first time.

They had parked and gotten out Tristan had paid for all of them to enter, even with the Gilmore girls protesting he still did. Rory and Jamie were holding hands while Rory was looking at Jamie's list. Now all she had to do was figure out a way to tell Tristan her answer.
She walked over to Tristan and stood right there and she could tell he was expecting something then she closed her mouth and took a step back she picked Jamie up and put him on her hip and started walking then she turned around to tell him something.
"It's killing you isn't it?" Rory asked knowing the answer.
"Brutally" He said smiling at her.
"Too bad" she said smiling wickedly as she walked off with his son wrapped up in her arms.

"She's good isn't she?" Lorelai asked smiling.
"Oh yeah she's good, I guess I have you to blame for that right?" Tristan said rubbing his face before turning and looking at her.
"Guilty as charged sweetie" Lorelai said laughing as she went after her daughter and her little man.
Tristan absentmindedly followed not really paying attention praying this day would have a happy ending. He jogged to catch up to Lorelai they stayed silent as Rory put Jamie on a rock so he could see the ducks in their pond, he was leaned back against her chest and eye level with her.
He turned and looked at Lorelai and started waving furiously.
"Nanny! Hurry their really funny" Jamie said laughing.
"Okay little man" Lorelai said to the child.
"Nanny?" Tristan asked quizzically.
"That's okay right?" Lorelai asked quickly.
"I'm fine with it I've just never seen him warm up to people so fast," Tristan said.
"That's because he knows he can trust us Tristan now take some advice from your son and relax and have fun today" Lorelau said knowingly.

It was close to 4 o'clock when they were getting ready to leave Jamie was out cold in Lorelai's arms everyone was tired chasing him around that day, but no one could say it wasn't a fun outing.
"Hey Tristan give me your key's I'll take him to the car while you two talk" Lorelai said sweetly.
"Here and thanks" Tristan said handing her the keys before turning back to Rory.
Lorelai walked off leaving the two to talk something they had needed to be done all day.
"This is killing me Ror I have to know" Tristan said honestly letting a long breathe out.
"I just like watching you squirm like that" Rory said laughing evilly.
"This is revenge from high school isn't it?" Tristan asked nervously.
"God no Tristan I'm not that evil I just didn't want you to jump me in front of Jamie and my mother" Rory said trying to keep her laughing to a minimum.
"So that's a yes you like?" Tristan asked rather quickly.
"I guess what I'm saying is yes I do like you Tristan that and you better not scrimp on our first date" Rory said laughing.
"You have no idea how long I've waited to hear you say that" Tristan said leaning down and pulling her into a kiss.
Rory smiled against his lips she had waited for this too maybe not as long but still her patience had run thin as well. Wrapping her arms around him, Tristan took that as a sign and deepened their kiss completely forgetting they were in a zoo surrounded by parents with their children. When breathing was a problem they both slowly pulled back, heat rushed to Rory's face and Tristan chuckled.
"Some thing's never change Mary" Tristan whispered laughing.
"Come on Bible boy before we corrupt any young children" Rory said smiling trying to control the blush that was still visible on her cheeks.
