Not The Surprise She Hoped For
**Tristan’s POV**
What?! My dad was joking right?! Rory wasn’t my sister? I felt my heart jump and immediately felt guilty. How could I be so happy at a time like this? She’s just lost her father and mother. But my heart did the happy dance. Get yourself together DuGrey! You need to stay calm. Help her. She needs you.
**Rory’s POV**
“Daddy?”
I heard how small and fragile my voice sounded.
“what are you talking about daddy?”
This had to be some cruel joke. Why did they do this to me? Suddenly a thought came up in my head and I almost froze. Maybe... maybe they had found out about my feelings for Tristan. Maybe they didn’t want me to be their daughter anymore. Why else would they say something like that?
**regular POV**
Jake DuGrey had to swallow before he could continue his speech. He saw tears in his daughters eyes, and had to look at something else to stop himself from breaking down. Oh how he had wanted this girl to be his real daughter. He loved her like she was. And that was something that would never stop. But she deserved the truth.
“You’re not our real daughter Rory”
he repeated. After a short breath he picked himself up again and continued.
"You’re the daughter to Lorelai Gilmore and Christopher Hayden”
“Well, anyway, your mother and father were only sixteen when they got you. So they decided to give you up for adoption. Your mother, I mean, Mrs DuGrey, she couldn’t have any more children after Tristan. We saw you, and wanted you to be the daughter we couldn’t get ourselves.”
**Tristan’s POV**
I knew it hurt when dad called mom Mrs DuGrey. That was low, and I felt the tears sting in her eyes. I knew, because the same tears were stinging in my eyes too. It was so hard to stay at my chair, when all I wanted to do was hold her and tell her everything would be allright. But for the first time in my life someone’s got Tristan DuGrey speechless...
**regular POV**
“I don’t want another mom and dad!”
Rory stood up, with tears in her eyes.
“They didn’t want me! I have you guys! You’re my real mom and dad, no matter what they say!”
“Rory”
Jake DuGrey tried to soothe her, but Rory pulled her arm back and ran out of the room. The last sound that the family in the dinnerroom heard was a muffled “No” and the start of Rory’s crying.
**Rory’s POV**
I couldn’t believe it. This was a sick joke. And still, some part of me was relieved. They didn’t know about that kiss. I was just adopted. Suddenly a whole new world of options opened before me. Tristan wasn’t really my brother. So it wasn’t forbidden to care about him the way I did. NO! What was I thinking?! I just lost everything that ever provided any comfort in my life, and I was thinking about how I was able to kiss my brother. That wasn’t right. I should be thinking about what was going to happen now. Did I have to go back to my real parents? Would they like me? I knew one thing for sure, nothing would be the same anymore.
