Chapter 9:
Tristan was exhausted. He never thought that paying attention in school would take that much effort! One more class and he was done for the week, he thought. As he realized, that he will be seeing Rory in that last class, his face started lightening up. World History usually was boring, but just her presence made it interesting.
As he came into the classroom, Rory already was sitting in her chair. She noticed him right away and gave him a bright, beautiful smile that made him feel like his heart was bouncing all over the place.
âGood afternoon class!â Mrs. Wilson suddenly said loudly. She was a very strict teacher and didnât allow any noise in the room, while she was talking. So that moment everyone silently sit in their chairs. It made her class even more boring for Tristan, since he couldnât talk to his friends. Although sometimes he still did, which didnât exactly make him Mrs. Wilsonâs favorite.
âAfter mainly focusing on the history and culture of the United States for the last couple of weeks, I'd like to start looking at different countries and their history now!" she started her class.
âTo get a start on this, I would like you guys to do a projectâ¦â
Instantly moaning was heard from most of the people in the class, since no one really enjoyed doing projects.
âComplaining wonât get you any further guys⦠Your project will be about doing research on a selected country and giving a 10 minute presentation! You will be able to choose what country you want to talk about. I will be expecting mainly history about the country and its cultural values. The project will be worth a lot of points, so you better do well on it! You are expected to work with a partner, whom you can pick right now.â
Rory usually didnât mind doing projects. But not with a partner! She still kind of was the ânew kidâ, although she has been at Chilton for more than a year now. Things were better than when she started, since she got along with Paris for the most part now. But she still didn't exactly have a lot of friends...
âPsst⦠Mary!â she suddenly heard from behind.
âDo you want to be my partner?â Tristan asked with a smirk. Rory didnât exactly expect thatâ¦
âArenât you gonna be with one of your friends?â she asked.
âI could⦠but you know⦠I need to do good to not be sent back to military school again. And when I work with them, I know for a fact we wouldnât be doing anything! And Iâd like to work with you⦠of course only if you want to!?â
âYeah, thatâs fine. We can work together if you wantâ Rory tried to say as calm as possible. Although in that moment her stomach seemed to turn upside down.
âAwesome!â Tristan smiled⦠and that moment Rory realized that she did have feelings for him! There was no point in repressing it any longer. The way he talked, smiled and looked just made her heart beat faster. She had clearly fallen in love with him!
Still kind of confused about her âconfessionâ Rory walked straight to her locker after class, to get her stuff together and go home. As soon as she arrived, Tristan came over.
âSo do you want to meet for our project this weekend?â he said while leaning next to her locker.
âSure, but I donât have time tonight. Would Saturday work out for you?â
âSounds great! Do you want to come over to my house?â he asked.
âMhm⦠Iâd get to see the great DuGrey mansion⦠that will work!â she grinned.
âOk then! Do you have a sheet of paper?â
âYeahâ she said while pulling one out of her locker.
Tristan grabbed a pen out of his pocket and wrote down his address. Then he folded the sheet in half and handed it to Rory. His hands touched her fingertips and Rory looked right into Tristanâs eyes; and he looked back. They were both still holding the paper, with his hands resting on hers⦠with her heart beating, Rory moved a little closer, still looking at Tristan. They were standing extremely closely, so Rory could almost feel him breathe. Both of them couldnât stop looking at each other and no one attempted to let go of the others hand. There was a strong connection between them and Rory was sure, that Tristan felt it too⦠Kiss me you idiot! She thought, still looking at him. But Tristan finally pulled away.
âI guess Iâll see you tomorrow thenâ he said quickly. âCall me so I know what time you are comingâ¦my number is in the sheet!â he nervously added âBye Rory! Have a nice Friday!â he said, and walked away.
What the hell was that!? Rory thought. Didnât he feel it? Why didnât he just kiss her! She clearly indicated itâ¦. But maybe it was better that way. It was so wrong, that she even thought about it!!
Tristan was also thinking about what just happened⦠he wanted to kiss her that moment, but thought it would probably be better not to. He wasnât sure, if Rory really wanted it too. And he didnât want it to be like with all the other girls he had kissed or dated! He had to take it slowly. Rory was special! That moment he remembered the kiss they shared a while ago, in a piano room at Madelineâs party. He could still exactly remember how it felt, the taste of her lips⦠he wondered if she still remembered⦠Tristan was sure about one thing: he wanted it to happen again. He just had to wait for the right moment!
