Different. Tristan Dugray x OC.

.Forgiveness and Stuff.

Mom, Rory and I are helping with yet another Stars Hollow town event, Rory is looking for Jesus' arm, Mom is working on Kirk's costume and I'm working one of the Mary costumes in the corner. 

We are all very far away from each other. None of us have really spoken since the night of the dance. Mom apologised for ignoring me and I accepted it but I have still been distant. Rory and I have been a little distance with each other too. 

To be honest I'm being distant with almost everyone, I haven't spoken to Tristian since the dance. I don't know how I fucked up this bad. 

My options right now are slim, all I can do is wait 10 more days before I take a test and hope to god I get my period in those 10 days.

"Taylor come quickly, our before Mary is about to become an after Mary, who else in town is knocked up?" Patty says to Taylor and I shift uncomfortably. 

We get up and leave the dance studio. 

"Find the arm?" Mom asks Rory. 

"Nope" 

"It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas" Mom says sourly.

I dial Tristian's number and take a seat on my bed. 

"Hadie?" He asks hopeful. 

"Hi" I whisper. 

"Thank god, are you okay? Why haven't you returned my phone calls?" He asks frantic. 

"I'm sorry I just needed a couple of days" I explain. 

"I get that, I know your freaked out but so am I" 

"I took a pregnancy test, I know it's only been 4 days but I needed to see that negative" I tell him. 

"And how do you feel now?" He asks. 

"Still bloody terrified. I'm meant to get my period in a little less than a week so cross your fingers" I say. 

"I'm sorry" He apologises.  

"Tris, no don't apologise. I'm not mad. I'm mad at myself that I forgot" I tell him. 

"Whatever happens Hadie, I'll be there" He says. 

"I know, I love you" 

"I love you too"

"I wish you'd change your mind" Rory says to Mom. 

"It's not my mind that needs to be changed" Mom says. 

"I don't think she meant it" Rory says. 

"Oh she meant it" Mom and I say together. 

"Really? Hadie your meant to be on my side"

"Oh come on it's Grandma anything she says she means" I tell Rory. 

"Well maybe she thinks she meant it at the time but I bet she won't when we show up without you" Rory says. 

"And without a map to follow that reasoning I say take a hat it's cold outside" Mom advises. 

"So you just wanna hold a grudge" Rory mumbles. 

"Yes, it burns more calories" Mom insists. 

"That's not true"

"Yes it is, how do you think your Grandma got those legs of hers" Mom offers. "She's not exactly a Stairmaster gal" 

I shrug, it seems to make sense and Rory elbows me for buying into Mom's thoughts.
