Chapter 2

What Are You Doing Here?

Tristan

--------------------------------------

Last time

Oh my God! I would recognize those unsettled blue eyes anywhere.

"Tristan," I whispered.

He looked just as shocked to see me as I was to see him.

"Mary," he said with that hushed husky voice of his.

-----------------------------------------

She was the next to last person I expected to see at the Harford mall, next to Bill Cosby.

Rory looked just as surprised to see me. Her intense blue eyes widened in surprise. We hadn't seen each other since the Romeo and Juliet play night.

"What- What are you doing here?" she asked in a soft voice.

"I'm here for winter break," I replied, in a trembling voice. Hardly daring to believe the woman of my dreams was right in front of me.

"Do you want to sit down," I said, after a moment of silence.

"Sure," she replied.

Rory sat down in the chair across from me. I tried to think of something mutual to talk about. I realized I never knew where she went after Chilton.

"So, where are you going to school; Mary?"

Rory

He calling me by my nickname from high school put me slightly more at ease.

"Well, I'm not so much a Mary anymore," I started. "I'm going to Yale, where are you going?"

He grinned at the first part. "I bet you're not," he muttered, so I could barely hear. "I'm attending Harvard," he said loudly, so I could hear it better.

We sat in silence for a few minutes. How can he still affect me this way? I feel like we're in high school again. My stomach feels like butterflies are in it. I know I sound corny, but that's the only description I can think of.

"Are you here with anyone?" he asked. I could tell he was trying to act casually. But I knew what the real reason was behind his question. I wanted to know if he was seeing anyone, too.

"I'm here with Lane and Zack," I answered.

He looked down, "your boyfriend?" he said, more statement than question.

I almost laughed at that. "No, more like my best friend's husband."

His head snapped up. Was it my imagination, or did he looked relieved?

"I know this is kind of out of the blue, but do you want to go out with me? Like right now?" Tristan asked.

Was this real was Tristan DuGray asking me out after four years of not seeing him.

"Err…. Okay, just let me tell Lane," I replied.

--------------------------------------

A/n: So what do you think? The date is gonna be in the next chapter. I'm a total Lorelai/Luke shipper! Do you think I should have like every other chapter be Lorelai's POV? What do you think? Tell me what you think by reviewing!
