'That kiss!' He thought to himself 'Wow…' He could still feel Rory's lips on his. The way her body fit so well with his own. He leaned into the wall and waited for her to finish changing. The play had ended and now he had to give her the miserable news.
Rory quickly changed back into normal clothes, all the while remembering that shared kiss on stage. She could still feel his lips on hers, the soft circles his hands had drawn on her back. She still hated him and his annoyingly sexy smirk. But that kiss…it had been…different. Yea, that's what it was, different.
Mindlessly she grabbed her bag from the shelf and went out the door, only to run into an exceedingly hard, semi-familiar chest.
"Already missing me Mare?" he watched as she re-orientated herself with a smirk on his face.
"Hardly." She snapped. "Your the one who chose to stand in the doorway.
He nodded. "Rory…there's something I have to tell you." His smirk faded into a barely noticeable frown.
She straitened her shirt and nodded. "Well? What is it?"
He leaned into the wall again. "Well, I'm leaving for California. My dad blew his top when he found out that I had broken into that safe. Said that I was a 'disgrace' to the family name."
Rory fumbled with her bag as she stared at him with wide blue eyes. "When?"
"Tomorrow, first thing in the morning."
"Tristan…I'm so sorry." She said in a quite voice.
"There's something else too."
"What?"
He pushed off the wall, and with a smirk kissed her softly on the lips. As he pulled away he swept her hair away from her ear and, his warm breath tickling her neck, whispered, "I think I'm in love with you Mary."
"He WHAT?"
"He said that he thinks he's in love with me."
"I'm sorry but that's so weird." She said and doubled over in laughter "And then he kissed you?"
"Yeah…" Rory looked out the window, "Mom! We're in the wrong lane! Car! CAR!" she shouted.
Lorelai screamed and then, after pulling over, burst out laughing again. "Bible boy 'thinks he loves you'." She clutched her sides, "Oooh…I can't…breathe."
Rory merely pulled a book out and began reading as her mother tried to collect herself.
As they finally pulled into the driveway Lorelai thought out loud, "Do you think you love him?"
Rory dropped her book in surprise and looked at her mother.
"Just asking." She said, waving her hands in surrender.
"I…I don't know." She picked her book back up. "No. At least I don't think so."
Lorelai smiled softly at her daughters' confusion. "Wanna go over to lukes'?"
"I could use the coffee." She nodded.
The plane was now at its maximum altitude and on its way to California. All he could think about was that last kiss, how she had so willingly kissed him back. He missed her already. Why did his father have to do this to him?
A stewardess handed him a bag of peanuts and his drink, most likely his last for the next two years. 'Better enjoy it' he though to himself and leaned back in his seat as the plane hit some turbulence. The seatbelt light went on overhead. Yes, Rory would be the only thing keeping him sane in California.
Rory watched as her mother talked with Luke. Her mind was obviously on other matters. Tristan, he wasn't coming back. She was so confused. Did she love him? She already missed their easy bantering. Wasn't that a bad thing? She sipped some of her wonderful coffee and smiled when her mom mentioned something about llamas.
Moments later a hand appeared in front of her face. "Helllooooo?" earth to Rory!"
"Yea?"
"Lets go. Movies and sugar. Lots of it." Lorelai helped her to her feet. "You need it."
Tristan dropped his bags on the floor and threw himself onto the lumpy bed he could call his own.
"I'm assuming you're my new roommate?"
Tristan opened his eyes and smirked. "Yup." He sat up and held out a hand. "Tristan DuGrey."
"Anthony Paily." He nodded and shook Tristans' hand. "Why are you here?"
"My father sent me here. Said I need to get my head out of my ass. You?"
"Scholarship."
Tristan nodded.
"Dinner should be served any minute now and if you want to get something decent we should leave now."
"You go ahead…I have something I need to do."
"Trust me…your not missing much."
After his roommate had left he pulled a sheet of paper from his bag and sat at the empty desk on his side of the room and began to write.
'Dear Rory…'
Rory settled into the couch with a bowl of popcorn, skittles, m&ms', pretzels, and chocolate covered peanuts. It was the perfect mix for the movie her mom had just chosen from their massive collection, Willy Wonka, the greatest movie known to mankind, other than Princess bride of course.
"I know this is a stupid conversation babe, but aren't you letting Bible boy get to you a bit too much?"
Rory shook her head. "There was always something between us. And now that he's gone…" Rory shrugged. "It's just weird."
"Maybe you should write him. Get this all sorted out." Lorelai said before cramming a handful of popcorn into her mouth and groaning in pleasure. "That combo is going on the list toots."
Rory nodded, still sidetracked by the letter concept. "Even if I were to write him…where would I send it?"
"You have a point. Maybe he'll write you."
"Maybe." She watched as Varuca Salt begged her daddy to buy her a goose that laid golden eggs.
"Taboo on Bible boy for the rest of tonight. Tomorrow we'll go therapy shopping, there are some new shoes I want."
Rory nodded and ate an m&m as Varuca Salt went on to sing 'its my box of chocolates, give it to me now!'

A/N: so? What do you think? Good? Bad? In-between? Smiles one other thing…Rory never dated Dean in this story, Jess…taboo on Jess. I didn't like him when he first came into the show but now that he has written a book he really isn't so bad…maybe he will come into this later. Anywho…please review! Your say really matters to me!
