Chapter 7


It was the end of summer and Tristan was on a plane
back to Hartford. He hadn’t checked his messages like
he said he would, because  he didn’t want to think of
anything back home. He thought that he was finally
ready to go back to school. When he got home he went
up to his room and started to unpack, and he pushed
the play button on his flashing answering machine.


Meanwhile, Rory and her mother were getting ready for
the Stars Hollow, annual end of the summer festival . 
It happened every year, and it was a blast, everyone
came together, and there were sparklers, and food, and
people telling stories. Every year Rory had looked
forward to it. She would hang out with Lane  and they
could just have fun before the pressures of school
started. However, this year, she wasn’t looking
forward to it as much, this year, lane wasn’t going to
be there, her mother had found one of her CD’s lying
out and sent her to Korean bible camp. 

Lorelai knew that her daughter wasn’t having the
greatest summer, first the whole Tristan thing, and
now Lane was gone. She wanted to do everything she
could to make her daughter have a great time.

They left for the festival, and headed to Lukes, so
they could get some coffee. They walked around the
park and looked at the lights, and ate the food. Then
Sookie ran up and she needed to talk to Lorelai about
a fight that she had with Jackson. Lorelai didn’t want
to leave Rory alone, but Rory insisted that she go
talk with Sookie.

Rory spotted a bench and took a seat. ‘what a great
summer this turned out to be, my first boyfriend
breaks up with me, I ruined everything with Tristan,
and now lane is missing the festival’

Just then her someone comes up to her and asks  if the
seat next to her is taken. She looks up:

“dean! no, sit down.” she tells him, happy to see him
“so... how are you?”
“I'm alright i guess.” she answers
“no offense rory, but you don’t seem alright, just
because we broke up, doesn’t mean that we can’t be
friends and talk to each other.”
“thank you dean.” rory smiled
“so, what's on your mind?” he asked 

They talked for a while and rory felt comfortable with
dean, like he was one of her best friends. She told
him about what happened with Tristan. And how she had
feeling for him and she ruined everything.
Just then the fireworks show began, and Rory and Dean
watched in amazement at the colors that lit up the
sky.

Rory looked away from the fireworks and into a crowd
of people, they were just beginning to split apart,
and she could see a yellow rose in somebodies hand. As
she looked up at the persons face, her heart skipped a
beat. She had a huge smile on her face. She looked
over at Dean, who saw her smile and the guy holding
the flower.

“go” he said smiling. He was happy to see her smiling

She got up and made her way through the crowd of
people until she stood in front of him.

“I’m sorry..” she tried to tell him but before she
could, he leaned in and kissed her. It was amazing,
the fireworks finale had just begun and the sky was
lighting up with dozens of colors at a time. 

“I love you Rory Gilmore.” he whispered in her ear as
the fireworks began to end.

“I love you too Tristan DuGrey.” She smiled as she saw
the final fireworks go off, and then the sky was dark
again. 


I don’t know if I should continue the story with them
returning to school...or maybe just end it here. I
would really appreciate if you would give me your
opinion. Thank You and I hope you liked my story.
