"Thanks Tristan, I had fun." Rory thanked Tristan as she walked out of the car.
"You're...welcome, Rory." He genuinely smiled, which he rarely did, he only did when Rory was concerned or around. "You know, I had fun as well. Well, I hope to see you soon, and have a good summer. Keep in touch, Rory." Tristan saluted.
"You, too. You're the only person I know there, besides that girl you met. Bye." Rory smiled and walked to her front door, and bothering to say anything more, or even waiting for Tristan's reply.
Tristan stared dumbfoundly. What would it take ME to win a girl wonderful, amazing as Rory? Hmmmm, just the best part of life, the happiest moments just happens to be in my dreams. Then again, today was a lot of fun. Tristan smiled, and drove off to his home.
Tristan dumped me?! I can't believe it!!!! Well, who WAS that blonde girl that was drooling over my Tristan?!! No one, and I mean NO ONE can have him. Not even Rory Gilmore. Hmp, Tristan Dugray, you think you're done with me? Think again. I will be Paris Dugray sooner or later. Maybe I should change my image. Maybe he likes the Rory look. It's simple, I guess... Paris stared at herself in the mirror for a good half hour and decided to cut her hair and dye it darker. Well future Paris Dugray, you my dear, will have to change. Dramatically and drastically. Her eyes, green was not bright and luster, as Rory was bright and luster as it was blue. My eyes have to be bright. Tomorrow I'll buy green contacts. Maybe some new makeup? I know, I'll make an appointment with MAC to get my makeup done. Plus my hairdresser. Maybe some shopping at the mall. That's it. I just have to chance my image and my attitude. Paris made immediate appointment with MAC and her hairdresser. Her hairdresser was for tomorrow at 1 p.m., and MAC at 4 p.m. Paris had so much time left until dinner and she decided to take a bath.
At the same time at Dugray.
Rory, Rory, Rory. Hmmm, how about Rory Dugray...WAIT! Did I, Tristan Dugray, the former, "Player of Chilton" is daydreaming about a girl, and thinking about the future?! Rory Dugray?!...but it DOES sound good. Mrs. Tristan Dugray. It has a nice ring to it. I have the whole summer before school starts...with Rory. Why deny it Dugray. Instead of trying to get over Rory Gilmore, make her yours! I should take a shower, maybe it'll take my mind of things...or more particularly, Rory.
At the same time at Gilmore's.

The next day...
"I want you to cut my hair, few inches shorter than my elbow. Layer it. (Her hair, let's say presumably down to your back, its really long). Then I want you to darken my hair few tints, a rich brown colour, with very few highlights, Antonio." Paris instructed.
"Whatever you wish, Ms. Gellar" Antonio said.
It took half hour to cut and style in which Paris hoped. Then Antonio applied some dye mix to her hair, and Paris waited one hour. After, slightly washing and drying hair, Antonio put a plastic hat like and pulled some of Paris' hair through the holes in the cap. This helped to make some of the "few" highlights. This took shorter time, only half hour. Then he washed Paris' hair, and did last minute touch ups on the cut and dried and styled.
"Thank you, Antonio, you did a marvelous job. I don't know why I haven't thought of it, nor you. I like it." Paris said, and signed the bill with her credit card tipping Antonio well.
Then Paris went to the mall and found she had one hour. So went to an optical place and asked for non prescription colour contacts. They had a free booking and showed her the colours, and Paris chose a green contacts with slight brown in the middle. She paid for the contacts, she bought several of them, since they were only one day usage.
Then she went to MAC to get her makeup done. The makeup artist applied foundation and powder, and put some concealer under her eyes. Then she got out a charcoal eyeliner and defined Paris' eyes, and applied some light brown eye shadow on her lids. She then got out blush, the colour was a bit brown, pinky colour and applied it to her cheeks, to give its define. Then she got out a lip liner that was pink-red, and a lipstick in similar colour (sorries, I dunno the names, so I'll describe the colour). The makeup artist added a little gloss to her lips as a finishing touches.
"You are done, Ms. Gellar."
"I like it. I will buy all the things you have used today." Paris got her purse out and got ready to pull out of credit card.
"Very well. Thank you."
She looked like a different person. Then Paris went to the ladies room and got out the contacts and put them in. She looked and felt different. Maybe it was the image. Maybe this will catch Tristan's eye. Paris got out, and got stares from other guys, and they smiled, and Paris smirked back instead, that only got them to think she was a snob....Paris went to varies stores and got new clothes for the new year....
Same time...
"I want you to cut my hair 2 inches shorter, and layer it." It would be past Rory's shoulders. Rory's hair was straight cut, but she decided she wanted to layer it. After the hair cut was done, she went to mall and bought some makeup from Clinque. She got an almost lipstick in Almost Blackberry that made her lips look reddish berry colour. She decided, as well as her mother, and even along with the person from the desk in Clinque that she didn't need anymore makeup. Her coloring naturally was beautiful. So she paid her stuff and went home to pack.
At Gilmore's
"Nice haircut Rory!" Her mom commented.
"Thanks, anyway, I need to start packing, school starts in one month, and I want an early start, do everything in Harvard, and buy some supplies..." Rory rushed.
"Come down! Ok, first thing first..." Lorelai laughed as she suggest.
"Mom, I need some boxes, I need to start packing!" Rory asked her mom.
"My daughter, The Genius! Can't believe you're leaving!!!" Lorelai complained sadly.
"Don't worry. Hurry, get the boxes!" Rory demanded jokingly. But truth be told, she would miss her mom.
"Yes Mme!"
Rory packed her books first, then some of her personal stuff, like her pictures, awards etc. Next was bedding. Grandma gave her money, which she accepted since she was in no financial situation to be proud, to buy new bedding, so when in the holiday's she'd still have her bedding at home. Rory had bought bedding that was simple, like herself. It was dark blue to cover the mattress, and matching pillow cover. Her blanket cover was sky blue. She washed them earlier and packed them into the box. She had bought couple pillows and a blanket. Mattress was sent to Harvard following week that her grandparents had bought for Rory. She thanked them. Rory had already visited her rooms that she would occupy for the next four years, and it was spacious, she had her own room, and three others for her roommates, and a semi-kitchen, two washrooms, and a small living room headquarters. (I know this is unrealistic..but go along) Her mom and her bought some paint to paint her walls with. She had chosen the colour for the walls the lightest of light blue. There was a window in her room, that had enough space to place plants. A desk was provided, and Rory decided to bring her lamps to school to add texture. She had funky tall lamps she had recently bought at a garage sale, it was purple and blue lamps. Then she packed her clothes. She had at her job bought some hair accessories, earrings, one sunglasses, couple shoes, and 4 pairs of jeans, lots of tops. Since she had discount, they were really cheap. (Rory bought them on sale, and plus 50% off.) Then she went to Abrocrombie and Finch and got some sweaters and sweat pants for night clothes, and some special clothes from other places. She carefully placed her new clothes in big boxes. Which consisted of 2 boxes of summer clothes, and 3 boxes of winter clothes, since they were thicker. Two men would have to carry one box, since they were quite big. In her suitcases, she would take with her in the car, she added her older clothes that was still wearable. She left out few clothing to wear for the next few days. She bought new toothpaste and toothbrush and some toiletries in her suitcase. Her room, minus the boxes looked like she was still living in it. Although some personal stuff was removed. Other bigger boxes were in the living room. The place was a mess. "Done! I hope I didn't forget anything." Rory said to her mom.
"Honey, I think you need some...kitchenware!" Lorelai reminded
"Oh no!" Rory sighed. "I'll do it tomorrow. I think we can go to that store that has funky plates and stuff. I'll get pan and pot... Something simple. Oh and other stuff like utensils!" Rory listed.
"Didn't you and your roommates discuss what to bring?" Her mom asked.
"Yup, your own utensils and plates, cups and stuff. Plus one pan and pot etc...one of each in case." Rory recited.
Rory and Lorelai then looked at each other and gave high five's, yelled "DONE!"
At Dugray
Tristan had gotten his stuff packed and ready to go. He decided that if any last minute stuff he needed, he would go and buy. His parents still supported him until he got his job. Which would be after 7 years. This sounded very rich kid type, but Tristan decided that his parents got the cash to do so. Then Tristan carefully packed the silver framed photo of Tristan and Rory at the after grad party, where they were the Cutest Would Be couples. Sigh, Rory. You mean a lot to me, I know it, and I will win you! He got everything ready and called people to prepare his moving in his room. His parents arranged to get him a single, which was rare in a freshmen. But a Dugray got everything. He picked out paint colours, the bedding sheets, and planned to move in, in two weeks time. He still needed to buy his text books. His life was changing. Well, tomorrow I have a hairdresser's appointment. Great, an hour there, wasting my time!
Tristan got his hair cut the way he always did, plus he got blond highlights around which made him look more "hot" than he already did. Many girls turned and appreciated Tristan's look. But Tristan didn't pay attention to the many pretty girls that spotted him.
Harvard two weeks later.
"Rory, you look great! I'll miss you. Call me often!" Her mom said at the door of Rory's new room. They both painted the room, and helped organized Rory's new room. Luke had put some of Rory's boxes in his car and drove to Harvard, and Lorelai and Rory drove in their jeep with the remain boxes. They had finished Rory's room, and Lorelai had to leave.
"I'll miss you, Mom. Take care!" Rory hugged her mom tightly.
"I better go, honey, be good." Lorelai said and left with Luke.
Paris, two weeks later at Harvard
"Bye darling, you have the credit card. Have fun, be good. I expect top grades. Bye." Paris mom left as soon as she came. Figures, she doesn't care. Oh well...
Paris had finished decorating her room. Which was plain. White walls and rich bedding. That was all...There was few personal things.
Tristan, two weeks later at Harvard
He had finished decorating to his likes, and placed the photo of him and Rory next to the bed. That was the first thing he had done. Even if he didn't decorated the room, just that picture made it, the room "done". His parents, at home warned him, their expectations and gave him extra cash. They reminded that he had his credit cards and just went back to their own work. Well, I'm surprise they remembered that I'm leaving today. Today's a new day, everything is gonna change.
No Dean, Mom, or Luke. Me, well Paris and Tristan are there..but oh well. Things are changing so fast!!!
I changed as well...I will win Rory. Things change, and today is any day to start!
Well, I'm a different person, I'm gonna make changes. I will win Tristan, he's mine! Things changed.
