"Okay spill!" Rory jumped back as her mother ran up to her as she closed the front door.

Rory smiled, remembering the night, but didn't say anything as she flopped down on the coach.

"Rory!" Lorelai put on her whiny voice as she sat down beside Rory. "You know that this is going to kill me. You are going to kill me!"

"Well, you deserve it! You wouldn't let me have Indian food for dinner last night!"

"You were at your grandparents last night! You spent your one holiday night at your grandparents! AND you didn't call! What is going on with my daughter!" Lorelai thrust her hands up in the air, defeated.

Rory blushed, she knew she should have called her mom but she had wanted to tell her everything in person. Plus, she had planned on bargaining with her.

"I'm sorry, I promised them like weeks ago…Anyway, I will tell you everything if we can have Indian food tonight...and once next week…" Rory smiled deviously.

"Twice in one week! Okay, now I know that you are not my real daughter…she would never put me through that torture! How am I ever going to get that smell out! It will be like when Marlin found Dory and she was so annoying but he couldn't get her to stop following him! That's going to be me and the smell!"

Rory looked at her mom, her head tilted sideways, "Nice reference. Losing your touch?"

Lorelai raised her eyebrows in mock shock, "Never, I am just so stressed, my daughter is keeping important things from me, I feel as if everything is falling apart…"

Rory laughed and put her arm around her mother's shoulders, "Okay mom, calm down…Well, when I got to Madeline's house…"

"Rory, hunny, get up!" Lorelai shook Rory gently but Rory wouldn't respond.

"Rory, you are going to be late for school! And this time you have no excuse! You know I don't allow deer in your room. I mean, I guess if I met them first and they seemed like a good deer then maybe-"

"I'm up, I'm up!" Rory grumbled as she flung her covers out from under her. "You know, we should never stay up until three in the morning again." Rory whined as she went to change.

"I know, from here on out it's bedtime at 2:59 missy, no later!" Lorelai smiled at herself as she sipped on her third coffee of the morning.

Rory graciously accepted the warm mug of coffee her mother handed her as she headed out the door.

"Rory, no makeup today? What if Tristan sees you and runs back to Summer!"

Rory rolled her eyes as she closed the door behind her, "Love you too mom!"

Rory felt her stomach flutter as the bus turned on the final road that led to Chilton. She hadn't talked to Tristan since that night because she was at her grandparents and it had felt awkward. Plus, she was scared to death.

They had agreed to meet at her locker before school, but Rory was still nervous. She didn't know how to act around Tristan at school. Well she did, but that was when they weren't dating. She knew that once word got around that they were together all eyes would be on her and she definitely was not used to that. She didn't know if she was up to being "Queen."

The bus pulled up to the school and Rory took in a deep breath. She could do this.

As she walked down the hall, she saw that Tristan was already there. He was leaning up against her locker reading a book.

Rory took the chance to sneak up on him.

"Tristan DuGrey reading a book? Maybe I need to get my eyes checked…"

Tristan smiled at the sound of her voice. Standing up a little straighter he replied, "Yeah well, things change," He let the smile fall into a smirk, "and I wasn't really focused on my homework last night."

Rory couldn't help but smile at this even though she knew that if he would have said that to her last week she would have smacked him. As she looked at him, the butterflies began to multiply in her stomach. They had yet to make physical contact and Rory was dying to know if that feeling was still there. That feeling that she had felt only two nights ago, that feeling that had led her to believe that she was falling in love, that-

"Rory?" Rory shook the daze out of her eyes.

"Yeah?" Somehow the conversation had taken a serious tone. It was lined with questions and doubts.

"Can I kiss you?" If Rory thought her stomach had been filled with butterflies before, well that was nothing compared to amount that had just shot up at his words.

"Yes." She whispered, making it sound so simple. So he did.

Oh yeah, it was still there.
