With the sun peaking thru her window the last thing that she wanted to do was wake up and head to that school A school where she barely fit in, if you can even call her presence existing. Teachers were nice but that was only because she was a well versed student. The worst points were Paris, a girl who, if you could even call her, that saw her as a competition and Tristan. She truly didn't know why he liked to call her that blasphemous name Mary. Just thinking about it she dug her face into her pillow even more hoping that the world would just stop for a moment. That was when she felt a body on top of her and she knew that God had it out for her.
"Mom I am up!" She said in a fully exasperated tone.
"Oh I know that. I just like to bother you." She looked down to her daughter with a playful grin. Laying a light kiss on her cheek she laid her car keys on the table.
"Your car is fixed my dear so sleep in will you?" She knew that she wouldn't. If Rory ever slept in the world would surely end. Pushing herself up off the bed she made her way out of the house and to the in.
Hearing that her car was out of the shop brightened up her day a smidge. Her grandparents had decided to get her a car for her 16th birthday and she was overwhelmed but relieved and happy. Lifting herself from her bed she got showered, got dressed and headed out to school. Stopping by Luke's on the way she got a quick fix of her elixir of life, coffee. Something that she felt was understated by many people. Taking a sip of the brown heated liquid she closed her eyes to the amazing taste and hoped that it would never leave.
Arriving to Hartford in a record time of 30 minutes she was more than happy to be early to school. Usually she would have to take the bus which added on 30 minutes making the trip and hour. She was glad to be getting some time back. Heading to her locker she giggled the coffee in her hand, the huge yellow backpack on her back and some books in her hands as she made her way to her locker. Throngs of students were in the hallway just talking or lounging around. She sometimes envied these students but she wouldn't admit that out loud. Oh no because people would know, that deep down, Rory Gilmore did, at some times in her life wanted to be accepted. Was that too much to ask?
Just as she had freed one of her hands to open her locker she heard that oh so familiar and annoying name that caused her to take an exasperated breath of air.
"Mary. You are looking stunning today." His smirk planted on his face as he leaned on the locker besides her looking down at her.
Here he was, the Big Man on Campus, Tristan DuGrey. Boy of wealthy parents, probably the most revered in Hartford and fawned over by women of all ages. His cockiness and charm had girls falling for him everywhere but with the mix of his dreamy eyes, toned and tanned body with those broad shoulders. Well it was a deadly mix. Rory herself had fallen into those eyes a time or time but not like other girls. That was what made Rory a challenge Tristan just couldn't pass up.
"Can we not do this today Tristan?"
Usually she had a comeback but she was just too tired from staying up and studying the whole day. Standing straight up to look at her he could see the tiredness but had a comeback. Just then a scream came from a teacher as water started to flow down the hallway. A bit at first then a lot, making about a one inch thick puddle everywhere. Headmaster Charleston came over the loudspeaker, his voice undeniably recognizable.
"Please do not be alarmed but if everyone could make an orderly leave of the premises now. File out slowly and load onto the buses or drive home for the school day will be canceled. If you need to make an emergency call you may come to the main office. Thank you to all staff and students."
Just as quickly as he came he left and Rory was left looking at Tristan who had that smirk still on his face. Looking closely she could see that he had a glint of knowledge in his eyes. Placing her books and book pack in her locker she closed it and looked to him as the water continues to flow.
"You had something to do with this?"
"I had nothing to do with this." He said defensively as he turned to her and crossed his arm.
"Why don't I believe you?" She said staring him down.
"Whatever Mary." He shrugged it off. "Let's just get out of here okay?" He outstretched his hand to her hoping that she would go with him. A day off I mean it was priceless and just what everyone needed. Especially her.
Looking to his hand she was a bit hesitant. Spending time with the guy that everyone wanted needed and yearned for. This couldn't turn out to be anything good, but something in those blue orbs of his called eyes yearned for her. There was something there she had never seen before. A feeling, intensity pulled all her loins to him…..
