Rory is a Hayden. Lorelai married Chris when she got pregnant, but had twins, Rory and her brother Kevin. Though, she and Kevin are both the heiress and heir to the Gilmore Group and Hayden Law Firm, Rory tends to be ignored. Kevin gets the attention from his parents more, though Rory is liked more with the grandparents. What happens when Rory gets sick of it?

"Rory," Kevin Hayden yelled up the stairs of his Hartford mansion. He didn't have time to be late today. He was wearing his Chilton uniform; blue blazer with the Chilton crest on it and gray slacks. It was also paired with a blue tie.

"Coming, I'm coming," Rory said, emerging down the stairs. She was wearing her Chilton regulation uniform, as was her brother. Her outfit consisted of a blue pleated skirt and white button-down shirt with the Chilton crest on it. She had also stolen one of her brother's ties to complete her ensemble. Her long, curly hair was flowing down her back and her sapphire blue eyes shone with excitement.

"It's the last day of 8th grade, Ror. Come on, I don't want to be late," he said, faking enthusiasm. He and his friends were going to pull something on his sister and their cousin, Paris Gellar, because they thought that they were too uptight.

"God, when are you ever excited about school?" she said sarcastically. "Where are Mom and Dad?"

"They had to go to the office," he said, shrugging. Their father, Christopher Hayden, had taken over their grandfather's law firm and their mother, Lorelai Gilmore-Hayden, was the CEO of the Gilmore Group.

"Okay, let's go, then," she said, heading out the door to their car and driver. "Hello, Martin," she said, greeting their long-time driver.

"Miss Hayden, Mr. Hayden," he said, greeting both of the teenagers.

They both got in the car and rode to the school in silence. When they got out, Kevin went to greet his friends, Logan Huntzberger, Tristan DuGrey, and Colin McCrae. Rory, on the other hand, went on into the school to find her cousin/best friend, Paris Gellar, and her other two friends, Louise Grant and Madeline Lynn. All of these kids were rich heirs and heiresses that could rule the world if they wanted to, as they had the power and money to do it.

"Paris," Rory said, hugging her best friend. "Maddy, Louise," she hugged her other two friends. "I have big time news," she said, her excitement shining through.

"What is it?" Madeline said, as she was always excited and bubbly.

"I finally convinced Mom and Dad to send me to boarding school," she said happily.

Everyone's faces showed sadness. They all hugged her again.

"Ror, I'm going to miss you," Madeline said, starting to tear up.

"Don't worry, Maddy. We'll see each other sometimes," Rory promised her.

"Hayden, I'm spending every holiday with you at that school or here, I don't care. You're my family and I know that Lorelai, Christopher, and Kevin won't bother to," Paris spat bitterly. She didn't even try to hide her dislike for her aunt, uncle, and other cousin. Rory was basically her only family, as her parents were never around either.

"I know, Par," Rory said, hugging her again. "We'll be together every summer, Christmas, Thanksgiving, and spring break, I promise."

"I'm holding you to that," Paris said laughing, wiping away the lone tear that escaped.

"You girls okay?" Kevin asked, coming up behind them.

"Yeah, we're fine," Rory said before any of the girls could open their mouths. She gave them a look that said 'stay quiet, he doesn't know anything about it' so they did just that.

"Good, we're going to be late to class," Kevin said, going ahead with the rest of the guys to their first period history class.

"He doesn't know?" Paris questioned Rory the minute that the boys were out of hearing.

"No, I leave in three months, but you and Grandma Emily, and I are spending the summer in Europe, so he'll know when I don't come back," Rory said, shrugging. She didn't really like her brother either; he was never that nice to her.

"Well, honey, you have it better than some of us," Louise said, shrugging.

"What do you mean?" Rory asked her, confused.

"Honey, your dad loves you," Paris said, with a roll of her eyes."I can actually stand him now because he treats you better than the other two."

"And your grandparents absolutely adore you," Madeline said, grinning.

"We should get to class," Rory mumbled, as they started to walk in that direction. "I know they do, but Mom and Kev don't, that's the problem," she muttered, putting up a wall so that they couldn't tell what she was feeling.

"Rory, honey, just let it go," Paris said, rubbing her back. "The day is almost over and you won't have to see Kevin or your mom for a few years."

"You're right, Par," Rory said, walking into class, and having no idea what was in store for her and Paris.
