"Hun you were AMAZING!" My mother was jumping up and down clapping her hands like a five year old when she saw me. "Thanks, but all I did was play dead" I reminded her with a smirk on my face. "I know sweet cheeks but the fact that you can look so pretty when dead -" before she could finish her sentence Paris interrupted. "Gilmore I have no complaints, good job. Now where is Dugray..."she muttered as she walked past us.
I turned back to my little group with a shocked expression "she has o complaints" I said in a dreamy voice "I think I've died and gone to heaven!" At this my mother and I broke out into laughter. I was laughing I didnt realize Dean come up to me and my mom and Sookie turn to leave.
When I stood up I realized that it was just Dean and I. The words he mouthed to me while I was onstage came to the forefront of my mind. "Rory, I think we should end this....this thing between you and me.....it really should end." He said with a glum expression on his face. "Dean" I whisperd "This is not the place or the time. We should have this conversation in private." "No Rory." He stated with coinfidence "It should be done here so you ca say by to the acountant, the way you really want to."
That statement caught me by surprise. "Dean we have been through this before" I whisperd trying to not let the fear of losing him and the excitement of what might happen between Tristan and I show. "Rory, come on who are we kidding we both know you like him." He said trying to not show emotion. "Lets try and make this a mutual thing, that way we can be friends later on." "Okay" was all I could say and I gave him a friendly hug. "No go find your accountant" he replied with an emotionless expression and I took off in search of Tristan.
I ran to his locker hoping that he would be getting his books and it was my luck because he was just shutting it when I walked up behind him. "So you really are leaving" I said not trying to hide the hurt in my voice. "Mary listen-" he started but I cut him off. "No you listen!You've done nothing but torment me from day one, you have successfully made me more angry at you then at any other person I have ever met. And what's more you've confused me the most out of everyone. One minute I'll hate you for saying something but I can't hate you for more than a moment. And now I realized I hate you so much that ….that I love you. Are you happy now? I. Love. You, I Rory Gilmore, LOVE you Tristan Dugray. Me and Dean broke it off and now your leaving, your leaving for good."
With this I turned around and started to walk away but felt a hand touch my arm. "You can't just say I love you and walk way Mare, how am I supposed to tell you I love you if you walk away?And you want to know something really funny if you had let me talk you would know that I am not goin to military school. My gramps talked my dad out of it and into letting me stay here, with you."
