Title: Spring Fling (Yeah, I know. How original!)

Author: lannah

Summary: Rory, Lorelai, Emily and Richard head out to the Dominican Republic for spring break. Guess whom Rory meets?

Pairing: R/T of course!

Disclaimer: Sadly, I own zippidy-doo-daa of Gilmore Girls. If I did, then Chad Michael Murray would still be on the show and he would be mine (and even if they have nothing to do with Gilmore Girls, J-Boog from B2K and Orlando Bloom would be mine too! Heehee!). Anywayz, all the characters and all that fun stuff belong to the GG crew; the only thing that is mine is the plot (which will most likely turn out to be pretty retarded, so I give you fair warning)!

"You know, I still can't believe you said yes to this," Rory Gilmore addressed her mother, as they walked through the airport terminal trying to find their gate.

"Hey, a free, first class trip to the place with the cool name - Punta Cana, in the Dominican? Who wouldn't say yes to that?" Lorelai answered.

"But we're going with Grandma and Grandpa. You usually try to get away from them, not try to find bonding time with them," Rory said.

"I repeat, free, first class trip to the Dominican in a gorgeous, huge beach resort. The only bonding I'm doing this spring break, is with the hot, shirtless, tourist guys around there!" Lorelai replied grinning at her daughter. "And maybe you should do the same thing since you're single now!"

Rory shook her head and smiled. "Are you sure you should be telling your daughter this?"

Lorelai just shrugged. "You know what I mean."

"Oh look, there's Grandma and Grandpa."

"Rory, dear!" Emily called out, giving her a hug. She then turned to Lorelai. "Honestly Lorelai, aren't you ever on time? The airport asks that you be here at least three hours before your flight."

"Mom, we have at least half-an-hour," Lorelai said exasperatedly.

"Exactly. We should have boarded the plane by now," Emily huffed. "Well, let's go. The first class flyers should have boarded already."

With that, Emily picked up her carry on bag and headed over to the woman who was checking tickets. Richard shrugged at the Rory and Lorelai, then picked up his bag and followed her.

"Remind me again why I decided to come on this trip?" Lorelai asked, following Emily and Richard.

"You needed a break, and hot, shirtless guys," Rory answered grinning.

"Right."

Rory walked up the aisle of the plane, looking for her seat. In all the chaos and shuffle, she had somehow ended up getting the "loner" seat since Emily insisted that Lorelai sit with her and Richard. She actually welcomed this though. She could use a break from the constant Emily-Lorelai, bickering sessions, although, it was quite entertaining at times.

Finally, she found her window seat, a few rows behind the three adults. Rory sat down, and tried to make herself comfortable. At that moment, Lorelai flopped down beside her.

"Is anyone sitting here?"

"Not yet."

"You think they'd mind if I switched seats?"

"It's that bad already?" Rory asked.

Lorelai groaned in response. "I highly doubt I'm getting any 'me' time down in Punta Cana. Your grandmother is insane! She has an itinerary. An itinerary! Since when do I ever do itineraries?"

Rory laughed.

Lorelai sighed and got up. "After we take off, come rescue me and we'll sit around that little table in the back and drink coffee like normal people."

"I would hardly call us, normal."

"Oh well," Lorelai answered happily, her mood changing. "They give you coasters here!"

Immediately bored after Lorelai left, Rory rummaged around in her backpack and pulled out her copy of "The Lord of the Rings" (AN: I had to throw that in there!) and tried to continue reading where she left off.

No sooner had she done this, when her peace and quite was soon interrupted by a drawling voice.

"Mary, Mary, Mary. Funny seeing you here."

She was willing to bet that when she looked up, the voice would be accompanied by the cocky smirk she had come to expect of Tristan Dugrey.

She was right.
