This is set three weeks after Logan broke up with Rory through Honor. He still does everything he can to win her back but she ignores him unless they are out with their friends. The only thing they have in common is: Finn, Colin, Stephanie and Rosemary.

Rory was sitting at their usual booth with her friends.
The waitress came over to Rory, "This was sent to you with this note from that gentleman." She was pointing to a good looking guy with black hair. Rory smiled as she read the note. Your drink of choice, dinner tomorrow? – M. Rory turned back to him and nodded. It has been three weeks since her and Logan broke up, he was still trying to win her back and she was trying to move on.
Logan then appeared. " Sorry i am late, Dad was being Dad" before anyone could respond someone patted Rory on the shoulder, she spun around and she saw the one and only Tristan Dugrey.
"Mare..." he breathed.
"Bible Boy: she stood up and embraced him while he twirled her around. Logan just wanted to punch him out for talking to her and now he is touching her.
"Want to introduce us to your lovely fella, love?" Finn asked laying on the charm, while he was receiving death stares from Logan.
"Okay well Tris this is Finn the drunk Aussie, Colin the tight ass, Steph my best friend who hardly eats, Rosemary another best friend and Logan" she motioned to everyone while saying their name.
"No synonyms for me Ace? If i remember correctly butt- face miscreant came up in a conversation."
Colin speaking up for the first time in the conversation, " What is with all the nicknames?"
"Well Tristan thought i was perfect who would never do anything wrong like the virgin Mary and because of the relationship to the Bible i call him Bible Boy."
The group continued to mingle and Logan was beyond angry at how they interacted. Suddenly Rory looked at the time, "I have got to go." She stood up.
"Friday night dinner?" Tristan asked.
"Yeah, Oh my god why don't you come with? The grandparents haven't seen you in ages." Rory said. "Pretty please Tris, it is probably another attempt for them to set me up on a date. Please!"
"Okay, are Strobe and –" Tristan began to say. Rory shook her head, "I'll explain everything later, I promise." The rest of the group looked confused.
"I need to go home and get changed, pick me up in a half hour?" Rory asked him
"You don't need to change you look amazing." Tristan said which made Rory blush, but Logan wanted to punch him out even more.
"Tris, do you see what I am wearing?" Rory said in a patronizing tone.
"Yeaa" he responded
" Do you know where we are going?" she asked again.
"Oh good point, you should go and change."
"Thought so" she said with a smirk. "Shall we split?"
The group made their way to the exit and where immediately bombarded with paparazzi. Asking questions like "How long have you been the heir to the Hayden fortune? When will you take over the company? Who are these people? Ms Hayden, look here." It was very overwhelming for Rory, but luckily for her the boys jumped in and shielded her from the paps. Rory knew that she would have to explain to her friends so she said simply, "We will take my car and I'll tell you everything."
Rory jumped into the driver's seat and Tristan got into the passenger seat of her limited edition Bentley. Tristan held her hand which was on her thigh and Logan couldn't help but growl at this. Rory got out her phone and called her Hayden Grandparents.
"Grandma" Rory said as Francine answered.
"Hello Leigh dear, how are you?" Francine asked.
"Sorry Grandma to cut the pleasantries short but i have just been ambushed by the paparazzi. They found out!" she all but yelled into the phone.
"Oh Leigh how could that have happened?"
"I don't know grandma, but it is to early i still want to enjoy the rest of my college experience." Rory sighed.
"Well someone must of leaked it, did you tell anybody out from the office?" Francine asked.
"No grandma no one knew that i was a Hayden except Tris, and i know he didn't tell." Rory smiled as she caught Tristans eye, Logan looked like he was about to throw up.
"I know that sweetheart."
"Grandma i am on the way over with my friends they were with me when it happened and i think i should tell them the truth" Rory said with great defiance.
"Yes darling of course. I'll get your grandfather and we can discuss this and find the leak."
"Thanks grandma, do you think we can move Friday night dinner to your house?" Rory asked.
"Yes of course darling, do you want me to set up your room for tonight?" Francine inquired
"That would be nice, can we possibly have roast with mashed potatoes for dinner?"
"Of course anything for you, i love you Leigh."
"I love you too grandma." With that she hung up. She then called Richard and Emily, she got message bank. "Hi grandma and grandpa it's Rory I was wondering if we could have Friday night dinner at the Hayden's tonight, everyone found out and i don't want to go out. Thanks i love you both."
Rory's last call was to her mother. "Fruit of my lions how are you?"
Rory couldn't help but chuckle. "Hey mum I'm good, can you and dad come to the Hayden's instead of the Gilmores tonight?"
"What's up Rory"
"Mum the secret is out everyone knows."
"Of course hunny we will be there, anything I can help you with?"
"Actually mum can you please get me something to wear tonight that is Emily approved?"
"Why what are you wearing?"
"A singlet with a picture on it, Grandma will have a fit even though it is custom made." Rory smirked as she saw her grandmothers expression to her top.
"I will pay you $400 to wear that tonight. Please!" Lorelai said excitedly.
"Don't get your hopes up mum, no money in the world will get me to wear this. Do i have to remind you when grandma had you're car towed?." Rory took the silence on the other end as a no.
"Okay, okay you made your point, what colour shoes are you wearing?" Rory quickly looked down at her feet.
"The tan Loubs."
"Okay then I will get you a matching dress, by any chance are you with a witty, smart, young blonde that we both know?" Everyone except Rory and Tristan looked at Logan who was thinking of course it was about him." HE goes by the name DuGrey and has a thing for the Bible."
"Yes mum I think that I've meet him a couple of times before, he is actually with me know, as well as the others." Rory said.
"I'm on loud speaker again aren't I? Rory your father and I have rules, no talking when you are driving or typing because you get distracted by what you are doing and you end up not communicating with us."
"Hey Lorelai," Tristan called out while Rory rolled her eyes.
"Hey Bible Boy, sorry angel i got to go, Michel i being well you know, Michel and scaring people. Love you, bye." And then Lorelai hung up.
By this time they had reached the Hayden estate, what they didn't expect to find is the amount of paparazzi outside of the gates. "Tris hand me my sunnies" Rory demanded. She then put her sunglasses on and held her head high while she put in a code to open the doors, the security guards surrounded the car and tried to get people away from the car. She was relieved when the gate closed. She pulled up to the front of the house and handed her keys to the valet. The group of seven scrambled out of the car and headed inside.
