Welcome to Chilton

Lorelai Leigh Gilmore-Hayden (better known as Rory) always has her nose in a book. For those who don't know her well she is simply a very intelligent, very shy, young girl. But for people who know her the best, she is an incredibly focused and loving person.

The Hayden family live in the small quirky town of Stars Hollow. Lorelai and Chris moved away from their parents and society when they were young. All of the grandparents are still alive and have very little involvement in their lives, except for Christmas and holidays.

Rory has a younger brother, Charlie who is only 11. Rory is currently 16 and is changing schools to Chilton after attending St. Andrews and then moving. Lane and Tristan are Rory's two best friends and they live in Stars Hollow and are going to Chilton as well.

"Come on Rory! You don't want to be late for your first day at a new school do you!" Lorelai yelled.

"I'm coming I'm coming!" answered Rory, appearing at the top of the stairs and rushing towards her impatient mother.

"Are you sure you want to do this Hun?" Lorelai questioned concerned.

"Yeah Mum, I really do, St. Andrews just didn't cut it for me. I'm glad Lane and Tristan moved as well, school just wouldn't be the same without them." Rory felt a familiar squirm of guilt but she didn't want to tell her mum why she really wanted to change schools, that would be way too much drama.

"Good luck kiddo," Rory's dad, Christopher Hayden called emerging from the kitchen, "You'll be great."

"Thanks Dad," she said giving him a big hug.

"Bye, bye Ror Ror" Charlie yelled racing around the corner still in his PJ's.

"Cya Charlie don't get in too much trouble today will you" Rory said laughing and tousling his hair. Charlie was the opposite to Rory, he was very much a trouble maker but undeniably cute and he loved his sister very much and they had always gotton along.

"Have fun, and say hi to Tristan for me."

"Will do Charls"

"Let's go Hun," her mother ushered, "we have to go meet the big boss."

"Headmaster Charleston is a real crack up isn't he?" Tristan said sarcastically, emerging from the Headmasters office after their 'here at Chilton were better than you' speech.

"Tristan, don't be mean," Rory defended "he seemed like a very nice man."

"Rory, were you in that room just then?" Lane asked incredulously but let the subject drop, "Come on lets find our homeroom.

"I think this is the right one," Rory called triumphantly. She slowly opened the door in front of her and the three of them made their way to the teacher's desk. "Excuse me, are you Mrs. Taylor?"

"Yes I am, are you Miss. Hayden, Mr. DuGrey and Miss Kim?"

"Yes ma'am," answered Tristan.

"Welcome to Chilton."
