Thank you for reviewing everyone! To those who asked, you'll understand the military school thing eventually. It should be explained in this chapter or the one after. I promise, there is a point for that in my summery. Once again thanks for the reviews everyone. And now for the next chapter!

A Wonderful Friendship

Chapter Two: Fly Free Tweetie

Logan and Rory were inseparable throughout the years when most children thought that boys and girls of the opposite sex had cooties.

They continued on with an onset of pranks, slowly moving up in skill level. They had moved on from their Barney days. As third grade rolled by Rory realized the need for a girl friend to talk about things with. It turned out Logan couldn't quite get the concept of dolls. One day, Rory's wish came true.

"Psst, Logan we haven't gone in here yet" whispered Rory as her and her best friend snuck around the halls of the school, trying to avoid getting in trouble for not being outside for the mandatory recess they were told to participate in.

As they entered the bathroom they were surprised to see a boy and girl in there drawing pictures with the art teacher's pastels and paints all over the walls.

The girl introduced her self as Stephanie Vanderbilt. The boy soon after proclaimed he was Finley Morgan, and as Stephanie quickly explained they were sure to get a headache if they did not call him Finn. It turned out Finn had an unusual attachment to screaming.

Stephanie and Finn promised they wouldn't tell about the toilette paper if they didn't tell about their artwork. She also included the conditions that Rory and Logan had to help them finish "decorating" the bathroom and in return Rory made her and Finn help them out with their toilette paper master piece.

By the end of the recess period the halls and classrooms were completely covered in toilette paper as well as the bathrooms seemed to have develop and new, very colorful, décor. The schools bathrooms walls weren't the only thing that was permanently changed that day, the lives of four eight-year-olds were well as they formed a tight friendship

The four jumped from school to school together, never staying long. Eventually, Finn's attachment to screaming turned to an attachment to red-heads and alcohol. It turned out Stephanie didn't only have a style for bathroom decorating, but a style for cloths as well. Rory continued on with her love for reading and Logan found all about girls. Finally, one year they settled down for longer than they ever had before. It was ninth grade, and a time for changes.

That year both Stephanie and Rory moved on from the, I like you, you like me, stage used by most young teens and pre-teens. Also referred to by the two in later years, as a Barney-type-relationship, in reference to the famous Barney song.

Rory went out with a boy name Colin McKrae. After a year of dating Colin, Rory lost her virginity. Two months later they broke up, mutually deciding that they were better off as friends. Although they broke up, Colin became a constant fixture in the group and seemed as if he wasn't going to leave it anytime soon either.

Stephanie went out with a boy by the name of Robert Grimalski. It turned out, after she had sex with him, he was a jerk and they broke up. Robert was permanently shunned from the group.

After Stephanie's bitter break up they continued school hopping, quite to their parents and grandparents chagrin.

Rory continued to stay close to her mother, visiting during breaks, occasionally bringing her friends along, although Finn went back to Australia every summer to ensure that, in Finns words, his "exoticness" stayed intact.

One day near the end of tenth grade, Rory was sitting in her most recent school, St. Something-or-other. Halfway through the class, Rory was bored out of her mind.

She glanced at the poor little birds, trapped in the cage next to her. Feeling bad for them, along with her increasing boredom, Rory quickly devised a plan.

This being her first expedition pulled by herself, without any help from her friends, the plan didn't go as smoothly as she hoped.

Rory quickly opened the cage of what she affectionately called the Tweeties, named after the cartoon bird for their resemblance, and set them free in the room as she opened up the classroom windows to let them fly out.

Sadly, the birds didn't get the meaning of the open window and felt it would be better to fly around the room squawking and in their fright dropping bird poo throughout the room, and on the bald teachers head.

With a wince and a pass Rory was sent off to the principal's office. As she sat in his office, the principal handed her the phone.

Rory answered with a hello only to be greeted with the voice of her furious grandmother.

"Rory! This is despicable! This is your last warning, young lady. You have one more chance and your getting sent off to military school!"

As soon as the words Military school flew out of her grandmothers mouth Rory had do hold back a groan.

"Your coming home right this instant, I've sent up your grandfather to go get you. Your going to go live with your mother in that tiny town of hers until we find you a better school" was Emily's next rant

Rory almost emitted an excited screech at the chance of living with her mother, but quickly squelched it before it came out of her mouth.

After a long phone call with Stephanie, Rory went from being ecstatic to down right sad. Steph had pointed out that Rory was going to have to be without them seeing as Logan, Colin, Finn, and Steph had all received the Military speech at their last prank. Apparently it didn't go well with their parents that they had to pay for new locks for all of the doors in the school when they became "magically" glued shut. Thus being so, they could not be expelled to join her in fear of being sent of to (gasp) Military school, the dreaded world of exercise, strict regiment and early wake-up calls.

On the whole car ride home Rory pouted at the unfairness of it all. She tried to explain to her grandfather that it wasn't even supposed to be a prank she was just trying to save the innocent Tweeties.

Her grandfather refused to listen; after all he was under strict directions of Emily Gilmore not to relent to anything she said. As Richard sat struggling in inner turmoil, not believing that his innocent angel of a granddaughter could really do something as wrong as a prank, he was relieved with the limo finally pulled up to his daughters house.

He watched the driver bring out Rory's bags and turned around to the screeching and jumping around of two young women. He slightly chuckled at the sight of his granddaughter and daughter jumping around in an unseemly matter.

With one last wave he got into the limo and left Rory to her new life, for the first time in ten years, a long separation from Logan.

That's all! I know this chapter is kinda boring but I had to get some background info in. And sadly yes the prank isn't much of one but hey, they were in third grade. And the whole tweetie thing wasn't really meant to be a prank, just a bird setting free thing

Leaving it at that I must announce that I have a pole…what pairing do you think this should be?

Rogan

Trory

Or something else?

I open to suggestions but I think I did enough Cory for this fic, Colin's got other women in his sights(hint hint nudge nudge)

I accept any type of review, as long as it will not be a pointless review where you have the feeling to take out your inner frustrations on me. I got over 341 hits but only like 11 reviews.
