A/N: Omg, omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg. That is the most response I've ever gotten. That was amazing. I can't believe it! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! Okay, so back to my story, I'm 99 percent sure of the pairing I'm going to do, but I might hang in for a chapter or two before I announce it. However, no matter what Tristan will be a big part of this story. I have plans for him. Um, Finn, Colin, and Logan are in this story also, no matter what, either relationship or best friends. That's about it, I think...oh THANK YOU!

Previously on First Time:

"I'm not..." Rory trailed off, seeing Steph's disbelieving face. "Okay, so maybe I am a little."

"See, there's' more to it though, It means that you, are his newest conquest. Welcome to California." Steph told her, smirking.

Steph got up and headed toward the kitchen, leaving Rory staring after her, shocked and confused. Coming to her senses, she got up quickly and followed her into the Kitchen.

"Me. Me, I'm one of his 'conquests'! I don't know him. He doesn't know me. I yelled at him, that's about it. How and why would he be interested in me!" Rory ranted at a amused Stephanie.

"You're hot." Steph said, as if that explained everything.

"So!"

P

"That's Tristan. He's...well, there are no words to explain Tristan." Steph explained cryptically.

"God, I don't need guys in my life right now." Rory sighed.

"Wait, you're going to turn him down?"

"Yea...why wouldn't I? I mean, I don't even know him, and what I do, I didn't really like. No offense, I mean he's your cousin.

"None taken. He's a man-whore." Steph shrugged it off. "I can't believe you're going to turn him down. I really like you." Steph smiled.

"I don't see the big deal."

"No one turns down Tristan." Steph told her, not exaggerating.

A little while later, Rory was in her room, unpacking. She had heard some guys in the common room, they must be friends of Stephanies'. She wondered if Tristan was out there.

She was just about finished when her cell phone went off. She immediately picked up thinking it was her mother, and walked out of her room, heading toward the kitchen to make some coffee.

Little did she know that four pairs of eyes were on her when she walked out of her room.

"Hello?"

"Hi." The voice made Rory stop dead in her tracks, which made the people who were watching Rory, watch even closer.

"Hi." She answered shortly.

"You at your school yet?" He asked.

"Yup. Been for a couple hours."

"Good, it hot there?" Jess asked.

"Why are you calling?" Rory asked bluntly, not wanting to keep up this awkward conversation.

"Huh. I don't remember you being so mean to Dean after you guys broke up. In fact, you guys were talking before you left, right?"

"Jess." Rory warned.

"I mean, he broke up with you in a public place, and on a dance floor no less, yet you forgave him."

"Dean wasn't fucking some girl!" Rory yelled, causing everyone in the room to freeze.

"You were leaving." Jess said darkly.

"We weren't even broken up, I had told you earlier that day, I was going over to you apartment to talk to you!"

"We were gonna break up anyway."

"No Jess, we didn't have to break up, 'we' didn't even break up. You and that slut did! Dammit Jess, why did you call?"

"Forget it." Jess said, hanging up.

Rory stared at her phone like it had just bit her. She shook her head, looking up.

That's when she noticed that there were four other people in the room. She froze, staring at them, before smiling nervously.

"Hi...um, who are you, and where is Stephanie?" Rory asked the four guys.

"I'm Colin, and Stephanie's at the Gym." Colin explained.

"Okay. I'm guessing you're Steph's friends? Except for Tristan, who's her cousin, hi Tristan." Rory greeted.

"Mary."

"Rory. So, who are the rest of you?" She asked.

"I'm Logan, that's Colin as you know, and the one who already has a drink in his hand is Finn."

"Already? Logan, I had a late night last night...ah Maria...anyways, you are the one who dragged me out of bed this morning, in the evil sun! So, yes, I have a drink now. Anyone want one? Rory, was it? Would you like one?" Finn asked.

"Me? No, I've never drank, well except a drink once with my Mom and Sookie."

Finn looked at her like she was an alien. "Never. Had. A. Drink? My god, we have to get this girl drunk."

"No that's not-

"Do you really expect to go to this school and not go to the parties and drink?" Logan asked.

"Well, I don't really go to parties."

"And you're going to live with Stephanie." Tristan stated, laughing.

"How old are you?" He asked again.

"I'm eighteen."

"And you've never drank. I've never known someone who waited until they were eighteen."

"Me either." Colin said.

"Okay, seriously, feeling like I'm being ambushed here." Rory told them.

"Sorry 'bout that Rory. Bad enough you had to meet Tristan on your first date. The three of them can be kinda overwhelming." Logan apologized, smiling nicely.

"Eh, It's nothing I haven't heard before really. My Mother has been trying to get me drunk for a while now." Rory told them laughing.

"Your mother?" Finn asked.

"Yea, she's my best friend, Out of the two of us, most people say I'm the mature one." She explained.

"Oh, trust me, we've heard of Lorelai Gilmore." Logan assured her.

"How?"

"We're all from Hartford, we know you're Grandparents, actually. Your Father is Finn's hero." Logan explained.

"Why my Father?"

"His drinking stunts are famous." Colin told her.

"Oh. I never knew that." Rory said, amazed.

"So, Rory. Why so far from Hartford?" Finn asked.

"Stars Hollow, and why are you guys so far from Hartford?" Rory asked back.

"Getting away from the Parents." They all answered.

"Oh. Well, I'm here to get a better education so I can get into Harvard.

The guys looked at each other, than started laughing.

"What?" Rory asked, confused.

"I'm sorry, yes this is a good school. I've just never heard someone say that they wanted to get a better education before. Plus, this school isn't exactly, how do I put this?" Tristan wondered.

"When you researched the school, it told you about the teachers doing regular watches up and down the hallways of the dorms, right?" Logan continued for Tristan.

"Yea..."

"There are no watches. The school doesn't care what you do, as long as you aren't arrested." Colin finished, smirking at Rory's expression.

"Oh."

"Guys, leave Rory alone. Especially you, Tristan. Yes, I heard about your 'Mary' thing, so take that innocent expression off you face." Stephanie told them, entering the dorm.

"Hey Stephanie." Rory greeted.

"Rory, I told you, call me Steph, everyone else does."

"Okay."

"Hey, Finn. You going out to get supplies for tonight?" Steph asked Finn, who nodded.

"What's tonight?"

"Why you're initiation to be a true West Coaster, of course." Steph told her giving her an innocent look, but had a smirk on her face.

"What exactly does that entail?" She asked sceptically.

"You'll see, just wait for tonight!" Steph promised.
