Reviewers: Thank You so much for reviewing! One of these day's I'll get around to naming you all!

Authors Note: Wow twenty chapters. All I can think of is holy crap! Lol I never expected this story to get this many chapters. Wow. Anyway I had a hard time writing this chapter. Well more so hard time getting the motivation or in a writing mood to write. But I decided to write anyway even though I don't feel like it. I wrote this chapter differently then I normal do really know why or how but yeah. Guess it might have came from not wanting to write. This chapter has taken a long time to get out and I'm sorry for the wait! I'll try and update faster! I seem to have a hard time writing how guys talk to each other. Lol it shouldn't be a problem for me since I have 6 brothers and am always surrounded by boys but for some reason it is. Hmm maybe I should pay attention to how my brothers and their friends talk... The next chapter will be out by the end of the weekend. I promise! I also promise that my next chapter will be much longer! I swear! Lol I'll start it directly after I finish this one.

OH MY GOD! TONIGHTS EPISODE WAS SO CUTE! Well the end was really cute! I loved it, I'm guessing Rory and Logan didn't break up thank god! Anyway they cut my previews off again (mean WB people glares) lol anyway can someone describe the whole previews for me. I saw most of it but still want to here about it so I don't miss anything. Please! The people who describe it for me will be next chapters dedicaties. HELP! lol I'm begging you! I'll go insane! Spoilers don't help... ahh

Dedicated: This chapter is dedicated to my beta! This fanfic wouldn't be anything without you! Thanks!

This chapter was put out WITHOUT my beta! I was going to wait but I have a tradition on updating every Tuesday after the show and I really wanted to keep that tradition, plus I'm really impatient. Anyway sorry for any mistakes!

Disclaimer: I do not own anything and am not making any money off of this.

Chapter Twenty:

Monday morning came to quickly for both Rory and Tristan. Since the disaster on Saturday Rory and Tristan had not talked at all. But Tristan did try and talk to her. He called and called. Mostly no answer or Rory answering met him and when she heard his voice hanging up.

But now as Tristan pulled into the parking lot of Chilton he vowed to make Rory listen to him. I'll corner her Tristan thought and make her listen! She'll believe me she's got to. After he parked his car, Tristan hastily climbed out of the car and jogged into the already crowded building.

"Hey DuGrey!" Alex called out as Tristan entered the building.

"Hey" Tristan replied walking up to his friends who were standing by the doors of the student parking lot, "have you guys seen Rory?"

"No" Adam answered for the group

"Shit" Tristan said walking away from the group.

"What's with him?" Alex asked as they watched Tristan walk away

"Don't know" Adam answered "but whatever it is he better cool it before he looses his title as king"

"Yeah" agreed Zander

Tristan quickly walked to their locker. Hoping to catch Rory there.

He did.

She was putting something in the locker that Tristan could not see, as he saw her. Smiling slightly to himself Tristan walked confidently toward her.

"Hey Mary" he said as he reached the locker, leaning against the one beside theirs.

"Tristan" Rory replied not looking at him.

"Rory we have to talk."

"No we don't" Rory said closing the locker and walking off.

"Yes we do!" Tristan insisted as he ran to catch up to her, grabbing her arm to slow her down.

"No we don't!" Rory yelled "and let me go"

"No" Tristan yelled back, pulling Rory into an empty classroom along the way "Just listen to me for five minutes" he said looking at her helplessly

Rory gazed into his eyes, involuntarily; she could see the pain dripping off of his face. Gone was the smile she once knew, gone was the sparkle in his deep blue eyes. Instead his eyes were now dull and blank, with a slight hint of bags under his eyes. There was no trace of happiness anywhere on his face. I shouldn't listen to him Rory thought But he looks so lost what do I have to loose?

"Five minutes" she said finally

"Thank you!" Tristan said "you wouldn't regret it!"

"I'm pretty sure I will"

"You won't!" Tristan replied "just let me explain"

"Okay" Rory said "Go ahead explain"

"My father-hired summer to break us up" Tristan said "He admitted it to me"

"Why should I believe you?" Rory asked "you have all the reasons to lie"

"Yeah I do" Tristan agreed "But you should believe me because its true, just look into my eyes and you'll see the truth" as he said this he carefully reached out and grabbed Rory's hands, and intertwined there fingers.

Rory looked into his eyes for a few seconds. And realized he was telling the truth. "I believe you" she said slowly

"Great!" Tristan said happily, "Now that all of that is out of the way we can move on to better things" as he stepped closer to her in an almost careful swagger and took control of her with gentle possessiveness, and he really kissed her. With their mouths glued together and her hands in his hair, Tristan squeezed her to his body, try to absorb as much of her as he could. They pulled away reluctantly when breathing became a necessity.

"Wow" Rory said putting her forehead on Tristan's chest, trying to catch her breath,

"I know" Tristan agreed and was about to say something else but the sound of a bell ringing cut him off.

"Damn" he muttered "I don't want to go to class"

"Neither do I" said Rory as she pulled away from Tristan slowly "but frankly we have, we have been missing way too much school this semester"

"I know" said as he led Rory to their locker to get their books. Hand in hand. "But that doesn't mean I have to go to class, you go you can catch me up later"

"Uh No" she replied pulling her books out of the locker, turning to look at Tristan, smiling she said "Do you really want me to have to deal with the Posse all by myself? Especially since by now summer has sure to have told everyone that we 'Broke up', On second thought l I guess I can handle being hit on. Bye bible boy love ya" closing the locker and started to walk down the hall.

Tristan quickly caught up to her, grabbing her hand possessively "on second thought" he said "I think I'll go to class"

"Good answer" Rory replied as they walked into the classroom together

"Don't you know it"?

The couple took their seats side by side. And noticed that the teacher has not arrived yet. Tristan shrugged and patted his knee." Come here Mary" he said

Rory shook her head; "the teacher will be here soon"

"So" Tristan challenged "Are you afraid?"

"No!"

"Then come here"

"Fine" Rory reluctantly agreed, standing up and moving to sit on Tristan's lap. She sat facing him, straddling him while leaning over to lean on his chest. The couple sat in a few minutes of silence, just being comfortable with each other when someone interrupted them from behind Rory. And said

"Well well ,well, what do we have here?"

Lol now that has to be the crappiest and oddest chapter I've ever written! I truly hate it. Anyway sorry for the short chapter the next one will be longer. I know my updates have been getting kind of further and further apart, but I swear to do my best to update faster! I would have a chapter out tomorrow (Wednesday) but I'm going on a daylong field trip! The next chapter hasn't been typed yet but I know exactly what I want it to say. I know Rory probably wouldn't have forgiven him that easily but I decide to move it along quickly instead of dragging it on. Cause believe me this isn't all that bad, the drama shall be BIG soon enough. Lol Better ends here, bye!

Warning For the Next Chapter: Find out who it is! And FIGHT! Well argument would work better...

Remember this chapter was put out WITHOUT my beta! I was going to wait but I have a tradition on updating every Tuesday after the show and I really wanted to keep that tradition, plus I'm really impatient. Anyway sorry for any mistakes!

Please Review! It'll make me update faster! Cause then I'll be happy!
