========================================================================
When Lorelai opens her eyes, she feels dread upon her soul, she did not
like this date. It was her birthday today, and she was dreading this
date for months now, she closes her eyes trying to go back to her peaceful
slumber. At that same moment, Rory enters her mother's room on the first
floor and looks at her mother sleeping in bed and smiles seeing how relaxed
and peaceful her mother was at this very moment, because it's always a
joy to wake her up in this fashion.
"Good morning mom" says Rory with a big smile plastered on her face.
Lorelai digs deeper into the sheets and buries herself while moaning.
Rory goes to the windows and opens all the drapes completely, by doing
this she floods the room with an excess of light and sunshine you then
hear Lorelai growling and complaining about ruining her day. Rory
grabs the sheets and pulls hard ripping them away from her mothers fingers
and away from the bed. Lorelai then opens her eyes and looks at her
beautiful daughter and says.
"You're Mean" smiling back at her daughter.
"You've got to get up" Rory grabs her mothers arms and pulls her out of
bed and pushes her towards the bathroom. "hurry up we've got to get ready
for the party".
While her mother is washing, she goes down the stairs and talks with the
people already gathering in the house.
As Tristin turns into the Gilmore's driveway in his SUV. He notices a
lot of cars already there so he parks is car away from the others, for
easy access and a clear path to the road in case that he has to leave
in a hurry, *you never know when a emergency could arise*. He then
heads for the house and rings the doorbell, he hears someone yelling
to come in, so he opens the door to a circus, people are literately
running all over the place, as he enters completely. Rory notices
him and says hello and welcome him to the nut house.
She notices that Tristin is sweaty and dirty from his workout at the gym
so she tells him to find the bathroom and clean himself up, she has to get
her dress ready for the ceremony. Leaving him alone, he asks the first
girl that he sees where the bathroom would be she tells him to go on the
next floor maybe there is a bathroom there, he then leaves and goes up
the stairs up to the first floor and locates the bathroom, so he starts
the shower and gets in to clean himself.
While Tristin is taking care of himself Rory gets her dress done in
record time she then gets herself a cup of coffee and then joins her
mother in her room. She sits on her mothers bed and watches her freaking
out over anything and everything, Rory stands up and hands a cup of hot
coffee to her mother, who looks at Rory with love for her daughter, she
then drops her coffee and swears to high heaven for wasting such good
coffee, Rory rushes to the bathroom to get towels to wipe the coffee
before it ruins the carpet, she yanks the door open and gets the shock
of a lifetime, Tristin standing before her dripping wet with not a
stitch of clothes on him, as she stands there watching him with his
rippling muscles and hard body standing in front of her, she blushes
a deep crimson and apologizes to him while backing up and closing the
door.
Rory hurries to her mother's room "Oh god! Oh god! Oh god! Oh god!"
looking panicked, she paces the floor.
"What's wrong Rory, what happened" seeing her daughter panicking.
"I just walk in on Tristin, while he was coming out of the shower, he..
he.. he wasn't wearing anything!"
Lorelai had a glint in her eyes and asked her daughter "So how did he look?"
Rory's mouth fell open from shock at what he mother asked her, she ten
replies "I'm not going to tell you, I don't want to think about it" but
she can't stop seeing the image of Tristin in the nude and from the
corner of her mouth she smiles.
Lorelai was watching her daughter smile and blush like crazy and then
replied "So you do like him after all"
Rory was shocked beyond belief by what her mother just said, to the
point of not knowing what to say so she sits on the bed and puts her
head on her knees wondering and starting to think, *Do I like Tristin
that way*, at that point she starts to smile.
As this is going on, Tristin gets dressed and leaves the bathroom to
wait downstairs.
Lorelai is pacing in her room *Why am I so nervous, just because I'm
marring Luke in a fake ceremony, my palms are wet and I'm sweating all
over. Looking at herself in the giant mirror in her room, she has to
say that her mother made a fine choice with this dress, it's exquisite,
she wondered if her mother would let her keep the dress for her real
marriage if ever she had one.*
Rory looks at her watch and jumps up from the bed, "I have to get ready"
she says she then heads for the bathroom hoping they at least left her
some hot water, she starts to get undressed for a quick shower, after
taking her clothes off she starts the shower and at that very moment, the
door opens and Tristin enters the bathroom, he notices Rory standing before
him stark naked, he tries to say something but trips and falls down in
front of her, and Rory starts to scream and grabs a giant towel of the rack
and covers herself with it, Tristin get up tries to appolizises while
picking up his clothes that he left on the floor and tries to leave at the
same time that Lorelai blocks the entrance to the bathroom, Tristin doesn't
know where to look or what to do.
"So you wanted to get a look at my daughter" Lorelai says to Tristin.
"I'm sorry, but I just came to get the clothes I left on the floor, But
I.. I" Tristin turns away from Lorelai blushing madly and unable to
control it, so he faces away from her but then he faces Rory, he looks
at her, opens his mouth to say something but nothing comes out of it.
Lorelai then grabs his shoulder and pulls him out of the bathroom and
pushes him towards her room.
"Tristin get in my room now"
"Mom... he he saw me" Rory says blushing furiously.
"Rory calm down and take your shower, once your done, come and join us
in my room ok" Lorelai then closes the door to the bathroom and heads
for her room.
Once Tristin is in her room he sits in the chair and waits for Rory's
mother to yell at him and then kill him, he noticed how protective of
her, she was. He keeps seeing the image of Rory in her birthday suit
with all of those curves, man he had to clear his mind. He was still
in a daze when Lorelai came into the room. She noticed that he was shy
and she knew that it was an accident him seeing her daughter in the buff.
She sees how shaken and nervous he is so she decides to have fun as usual.
"So how does Rory look yo you?" she asks directly.
"Incredible, absolutely gorgeous" he then realizes what he was saying and
says "I didn't see anything, I opened the door and fell on the floor"
He tries to convince Lorelai that he saw nothing but she doesn't believe
him, naturally she does not tell him that, she knows that he saw everything
that her daughter had to offer, Tristin sees all this on her face and he
then looks down at his shoes.
"Don't worry about it, I know it was only an accident" Lorelai says making
Tristin breath better.
"I just went in to get my dirty cloths that I forgot on the floor, and then
I saw her standing there before me..." Tristin just stays there looking
forwards no saying anything.
"Earth to Tristin, are you there" smiling down at him.
He looks up and blushes realizing that he spaced out for a minute "Yes..
I..Don't know what to say" he says shyly.
"Wait, when Rory arrives we'll talk" they both sit down and wait for Rory
to arrive. Rory enters the room about 10 minutes later drying her air.
She sits on the bed where her mother points to right next to Tristin,
there both looking at the floor. *Man both of them are shy and are afraid
to look at each other, how cute is that.*
"Ok listen up you two look at me when I talk" both kids look up at Lorelai's
face. "Ok now look at each other" they both start to look at each other
and blush while doing this.
"It's ok, Both of you have seen the other naked and it will awkward for a
while but both of you will get through this, just don't worry about it ok"
"Now Tristin you go downstairs and finish getting ready, you Rory will
help me get ready for this birthday party that mom gracefully prepared
for us" smiling at both kids.
Tristin looks at Rory and says "Sorry about the bathroom thing it was
an accident you know" he then turns around and leaves the room, Rory
just stares at the bedroom door where just a moment ago a young man with
blonde air left and she keeps thinking how much he changed in the last
month since Madeline's party. For the next hour Rory helps her mother
get dressed prepare her hair makes sure the wedding dress is perfectly
adjusted for the ceremony, and at this time a knock sounds at her door,
Rory opens the door and in comes Emily with a very big smile on her face
when she sees Lorelai dressed in her wedding gown.
"Oh honey you look gorgeous in that dress, one day you'll make a very
beautiful bride, once you find a man worthy of you and who has a lot
of money and good standings."
"Mom, I don't care about those things, you know that" she replies
to her mother.
Luke's Apartment
Saturday 10:10pm
========================================================================
*God why am I so nervous it's not it's a real wedding, it's a fake wedding
with a fake priest, I should of never accepted this thing, god I'm really
pathetic, I love her so much and I can't tell her out of fear of rejection
or is it fear of acceptance, what if she said yes for us to go out, then
it takes the relationship to a whole new level, she's driving me crazy
with us just being friends, now imagine dating her, oh god I think I would
actually like it, now I'm a masochist*
Luke starts to get ready for the mock wedding, he takes a long shower
trying not to think about Lorelai, but finds it impossible not to think
about her with her beautiful brown hair going down to just past her
shoulders with her perfect figure and deep penetrating blue eyes that
could swallow you whole.
"Jesus get a grip or I'll start ripping my hair out, now I'm talking
to myself. She's driving me insane"
He doesn't notice but while thinking about her, he smiles all the time.
Gilmore Residence
Saturday
10:35pm
========================================================================
Back at the loony bin, Lorelai is pacing the floor like a maniac going
into caffeine withdrawal from lack of excessive amounts of coffee, she's
only had about 4 cups of coffee this morning and she's going nuts
thinking about Luke. *What if he decides not to show, it would be just
like him to do this to me and why is it that I can't tell him how I feel
about him*. Rory left the room a couple of minutes ago to get her mom
some coffee before she blows up and kills Emily.
Emily feeling happy about this party that she was giving her daughter,
decides that maybe she could explain a couple of things to her daughter.
"Lorelai do you remember when you came for Rory's tuition and I made
you accept that deal of eating dinner with us every week and to call
us once a week"
Lorelai looks at her mother with surprise on her face, she seems nervous
about something "Yes mom, what's wrong?"
"Oh nothing... It's just that I wanted to explain something to you, the
reason that I made you accept that deal is because, I wanted to be part
of your life, and I wanted you and Rory to be part of ours also, I mean
you left us and barely came to see us almost cutting us out of your life
completely. I understand that I didn't make life easy for you but I was
trying to raise you like my mother did me and should of realized that is
wasn't what you needed, I see what you Rory have together and wish I had
that with you...."
"Mom it's never too late for us to be a family you know, I mean look your giving me a birthday party that I approve of, it's crazy enough to be from my mind so we're
not that bad off, and I get the feeling that when we argue you kind of
like it on some level, just like I do I imagine don't you?"
"Yes well I got to go downstairs and make sure that everything is ready
for us" she says smiling to her daughter.
"I knew it she says" smiling at Emily.
Rory enters her room at this moment and says.
"Here mom" handing her mom a cup of coffee.
"Thanks honey, you must really love me to bring me coffee, by the way
honey you look gorgeous in that dress Tristin eyes must be falling out
of is head"
"No mom that was this morning in the bathroom"
"Oh yeah I forgot, are you still uncomfortable around him or is it ok
now?" asking her daughter.
"Well we'll get used to it then we'll forget how each other looked" she
replies to her mother.
Lorelai looks at her daughter and starts to laugh saying "You'll never
forget how he looked and you know it and neither will he." she says.
"yeah I know" I'll be waiting for you downstairs ok mom.
"Ok honey"
Richard Gilmore arrives to Lorelai's house, gets out of the Limousine
comes up to Lorelai's door and rings the bell, the door opens and admits
him, he enters her house talks to Rory tells her how beautiful she is
in that dress then they wait for Lorelai to come down. Fifteen minutes
later Lorelai starts to come down the stairs and Richard is stunned to
see is little girl, in a wedding gown coming down the stairs with such
grace and poised that you could think she was royalty, he though that
I've never seen her so beautiful and happy. He offers her his arm and
tells her.
"The day you were born the gods must of been looking out for you,
because they surely gave you beauty and grace to match to gods." he says.
"Thank you daddy" she says beaming a giant smile to her father.
"You are so beautiful honey, I'm speechless, I'm really glad your mother
forced that deal with the tuition the one that forces us to eat and see
each other. I'm glad were part of your life again."
"I was mad when mom forced me to accept that deal but I see that we all
needed to be together, Rory needed to see you two and I also need you
both, I've never realized how much I missed both of you, and I know mom
can drive me up the wall, but I think we both love to push all of our
button."
"I've missed so much when you took off you could not believe how much,
and if I couldn't of done this once in my life it would of killed me,
you are my daughter, and I get to give you away, this is my job, it's
my right as a father and I can't wait for the real thing.
"Me too daddy" Lorelai beams him a big smile.
"It's time" Richard says "Let's go" Richard opens the door for Lorelai,
they both exit the house and head towards the Limousine, Emily joins
them with the vale and flowers for the ceremony.
Rory comes out of her room and Tristin sees her for the first time
dressed in her dress and his mouth falls open, *Oh my god she is so
beautiful*.
"Rory that dress is so beautiful on you, you look amazing." he says.
Rory blushes and replies "Why thank you kind gentleman for you fine
compliments" smiling at his face. "And might I say that you look
handsome in your suit also".
"My thank you miss, may I accompany you to the wedding" offering his arm
in return. She gently puts her hand on his arm and they both feel
electricity coursing down their limbs as they leave the house and head
for his car. At the car he opens the door for Rory and helps her with
the dress so it won't get dirty, he then gently shuts the door and gets
in on the driver's side he looks at her and says.
"Shall we?"
"Yes kind sir, after you" she says laughing at Tristin.
He starts the car and heads for the church.
