A/N: Here's the update... Rory's POV

Chapter Six

They had just gotten back from an hour long trip to the grocery store. "Gilmore Girl rule twenty- no exercise." He looked at me like I was crazy. "How many rules are there?" I shrugged. "I'm not sure actually." That made him laugh. "What are some of the other ones?" Without even thinking about it, I replied, "No sex on a first date." I said as I sat the bags down. One second he's standing in the doorway and the next he's behind me sliding off my duster. "Damn." Was all he whispered as he let his fingertips graze my arms, leaving a trail of fire in their wake, and I had a feeling that comment was directed at me, not the rule. I nodded slightly and I could swear he smirked. He leaned in closer to me. "You… Are… Amazing…" He kissed my shoulder. "Beautiful…" He kissed my neck. "Funny… and witty…" He grabbed my hand and he kissed the back of it. "And… you're… perfect." And then he kissed my open palm and I couldn't hold back the shudder.

I leaned back into him, begging for more. I knew that I shouldn't, that I should go. "It's alright, Rory. It's alright." He whispered to me and took me in his arms. He turned me around to face him and pulled me close and just held me. I breathed in his scent and he kissed the top of my head. "Come on, I'll let you pick a movie." He took my hand and led me to a closet. I laughed out loud when he opened the door. There in the Hilton, was a closet full of movies. "I don't watch half of them but Dad hates it so…" He shrugged, and I smiled up at him. "Alright let's pick." He shook his head and smiled, almost lovingly, at me. "Not so fast, we're going to do this my way." I rolled my eyes playfully, but I turned to face the movies.

I felt him move behind me again and he placed one hand over my eyes. Then with the other, he slid it down my arm. I can't remember feeling so relaxed. He lifted my hand, and said, "Alright, now point." I did as he said, suddenly I just wanted to move. "Relax Rory." I tried, but it was hard now that I couldn't think of anything but Logan. "Alright now move your fingers along the movies and then pick one." I nodded and five seconds later, I pulled out a movie. He laughed out loud and when I looked at it, I saw "Willy Wonka and then Chocolate Factory" and I laughed too.

"I haven't seen this in forever!" He nodded. "I know, me either." He took my hand again, but kept his grip loose, like I would pull away even if I could. We walked in towards the couch and sat down while he popped in the movie. Alright. Now is no time to panic, Rory. You're just friends. The look he just shot me said otherwise. "So, Logan's doing a little better." He didn't flinch visibly this time, but I saw he was uncomfortable. That was stupid. Maybe so, but at least it's going to make him back off a little. "Rory, I…" "Shhh." I cut him off. I wasn't sure I wanted to know what was at the end of that sentence. "Movie's starting." He nodded at me and then looked at the TV. I suddenly felt guilty. This had been an effort to cheer me up and make me happy, why was I being so bad to him? "Tristan…" "Shhh. Movie's on." He passed me the popcorn that had somehow magically come out of the microwave. "Tristan…." He sighed. "Rory, it's alright. I made you uncomfortable. I'm sorry alright?" I nodded. He's good. "It's just…"

He hit the pause button and looked at me. "You have Logan, you're uncomfortable because we're attracted to each other, we always have been. You feel guilty because you'd rather be here with me than wherever with him. It's alright. Honestly, I'm glad. I'm glad you'd rather be here. This is the most fun I've had in ages, and I can't believe I'm admitting that to you, but I am. If I make you uncomfortable tell me, I'll stop. If you want to leave, say so." He took a deep breath and then put his hand to my face. My eyes fluttered closed momentarily and I could almost hear his heart racing, or maybe that was mine. "Because Rory?" I opened my eyes, with some difficulty I might add. "I'll be here when you decide you want to come back." To say I was taken back by that, would have been the understatement of the year. I started to open my mouth to speak, when he cut me off again. "For now, can we just watch the movie?" All I could do is nod stupidly. And then, I reached for his hand.
