Though Rory soon forgot about the group when she saw Tristan desperately trying to get away from a girl who was trying to chat him up. She ran over to him and gave him a kiss on the cheek earning her a dirty look from the girl. Rory simply smiled and the girl son got the message and walked away.
"Thanks Mare, I have to admit I was beginning to become slightly scared"
"Beginning? Slightly?" she scoffed in reply. "You looked petrified!"
"You should have heard what she was saying! Definitely not PG I tell you!" he retorted. "Anyway, enough about me, how did it go with Lucas? How did he take it?"
"It went surprisingly well. He feigned innocence though to be honest I don't really blame him we weren't in love and I would be lying if I said I never looked at another while we were together; there was just no chemistry. You know?"
"Yeah babe I understand. At least were at Yale! You have to drink to that and no water or coffee something alcoholic!"
"How dare you just disregard the elixcir (AN; I have no idea how you spell hat, sorry) of life? And with water! Honestly DuGrey I'm ashamed!"
"Yeah yeah,Gilmore. Come on we're getting alcohol in your system. Do your mother proud!"
And with that Tristan dragged Rory to the bar and ordered them each a drink. While they were waiting somebody bumped into Rory nearly pushed her over, Tristan subconsciously wrapped a protective arm around her.
"Hey!" Tristan shouted to the clearly drunken brunette.
"Oh, terribly sorry love, mate. Must have lost my balance. Do, love, forgive me." An Australian voice replied.
"That's."
"Do excuse my friend, it's still early, he hasn't had enough alcohol yet." A blonde boy interrupted Rory.
"That's ok." Rory repeated and turned around to face Tristan with a slightly amused look on her face.
"Logan, I'm Logan Huntzburger." The blonde said introducing himself looking quizzically at Tristan's arm around Rory.
Seeing this, Tristan smirked, and replied for the both of them, to aggravate the obvious cocky blond trying to chat up his best friend. "Tristan DuGrey and this is Rory Hayden, though if you'll excuse us, babe do you want to go home early?" Tristan questioned turning to Rory.
"Sure, and it's nice to meet you Logan and you're Australian friend." Rory said pointing to the Australian trying to chat up a red-head.
She smiled and looked up at him, allowing Logan for the first time to see her breathtakingly blue eyes. The pair left a slightly bothered Logan, bothered as to why he felt to quizzical about the girl he had just met and the arm around her waist. Logan shook his head, trying to rid himself of these thought and went to find another conquest for the night.
