A/N: Okay people have been saying that Tristen has been mean but I'm here to tell you not to hate him. Everything will be revealed in due time. DON'T hate him for this!

I bite my tongue every time you come around,

Because blood in my mouth is better than

Tears on the ground.

Bible Boy's Back

'God she hadn't changed at all in the four years I've been away.' Tristan DuGrey stood at the window looking at the girl he never thought he was going to see again. 'I wonder what she's thinking.'

'God he hasn't changed after all these years. Well except for the whole kid thing and the whole huge muscle thing. Military school did him good.' Tristan snapped out of his daze and sat at the chair nearest him.

"Well sit down Mary." Rory shot him a quick glare before remembering her place and taking a seat. "Looks like fate will be forever throwing us together." Rory just sat there still not fully believing that Tristan was sitting before her let alone her new employer. "I'm sure Alice has explained everything to you. Incase she hasn't you should know I won't be here often do to my job. Whenever I am home I expect you to give me a full report on Adelaide. Other than that life here with me should run smoothly." Rory wasn't sure if that was a hint to something sexual but knowing Tristan as she did chances were good that it was.

"Well that's good to know but I have one question." Tristan started to pour himself a glass of brandy.

"Shoot Mary."

"Wouldn't you want to see and be with Adelaide rather then have me give you a report? I mean she is your child." Tristan held his glass tighter before looking up. Rory noticed something different in his eyes when he did.

"I see Adelaide when the time suits me." In an instant the look went out of Tristan's eyes and he seemed to go back to his regular self. "Now I think I should show you where you will be sleeping." Tristan stood and led Rory out the door and down the hall and to the left. "This is your room. Adelaide's is down the hall on the right and mine is here," pointing across the hall. "I'll be leaving in the morning so don't expect me at breakfast." With that Tristan turned around and walked back to his library.

'Well that was fun.' Rory opened her door and walked into the best room she had ever seen. The bed was placed between the two windows on the opposite wall from the door. It had a vanity set next to the closet that held every kind of perfume known to man. The only thing Rory could find wrong was that there was no bathroom adjoined to the room. 'I think I could get used to this.' All of a sudden the door to her room burst open and a flash of blue and lace raced by her and on to her bed. Rory looked closer and saw it was a little girl with light brown hair and blue eyes, dressed in a blue dress with white lace. The dress kind of reminded Rory of the one Alice wore in Alice in Wonderland.

"Hi. I'm Adelaide. I don't like that name do you. I like being called Addie. That's what Cook calls me. Are you my new Mommy?" By now Addie was jumping up and down and twirling on Rory's once neat bed. Rory just started to laugh. 'God she talks as fast as mom.'

"Well hi Addie. My name is Lorelai but everyone calls me Rory. Well your dad calls me Mary but that doesn't count. And no I'm not your new mommy I'm your new nanny."

"Oh you know my daddy! What's he like?" Rory looked at the little girl and started to feel sorry for her.

"You don't know what your daddy's like?" Addie started to play with the pillows on the bed.

"Nope. He's always away. Whenever he comes back from a trip I find toys in my nursery and Ms. Cassatt says that he put them there. She says they came from all over the place. One of them is from some place called London. Do you know what that is? Is it a store here? Can we go?" Rory walked over to the bed and held Addie.

"No honey we can't go to London. It's a city far far away. Over the ocean."

"Oh. I'm tired. Can you tell me a story?" Rory pulled the covers back and placed Addie between them.

"Sure. Let's see what would be a good story. Oh I've got one. Once there was a pretty little princess named Addie and she was trapped in a tower where only a brave prince could save her….."
