Dean is stocking shelves as Tristan walks over to him.
TRISTAN: Excuse me stockboy, could you tell me where I can find the shortening? Now that is a fine looking apron. I mean it, I mean, really sensational.
I couldn't stand him. I wanted Rory to like me not him. He didn't deserve her but then again I don't think I do either.
DEAN: What are you doing here?
TRISTAN: Well, to be honest, there's something I wanted to ask you. [picks up two bags of flour] In your professional opinion, which one of these would make my cakes fluffier?
It was so easy to tick him off I just couldn't pass up the chance since Rory wasn't there.
DEAN: You drove all the way out here just to be a jerk. There aren't enough people who can't stand you in Hartford.
TRISTAN: Oh, no. I'm here for Rory.
I wanted him to get the wrong idea.
DEAN: What?
TRISTAN: Yeah, the play. Romeo and Juliet.
DEAN: What about it?
TRISTAN: I'm Romeo, and she's Juliet. Hey, come on, she must've told you. She did tell you, didn't she?
I wanted to make the Bean think that Rory was trying to hide it from him. God if only they would just break up maybe I would have a chance.
DEAN: Look, I think you better leave.
[Tristan drops a bag of flour on the floor]
TRISTAN: Oops! God I am so sorry. I am such a klutz. Here, let me. This should cover it. [drops some money on the floor]
DEAN: You know what, I hope for Rory's sake that you got an understudy.
I would have loved to see him start something right there in his work. I couldn't wait to get my fist in his face again.
[Rory runs up to them]
RORY: Dean, hi!
DEAN: Rory, what is he doing here?
RORY: I need to talk to you.
DEAN: I got something to settle with this guy.
RORY: Outside, please.
I watched them go outside hoping that they would have a fight.
[Tristan walks in and sits down at their table]
TRISTAN: Well, well, the gang's all here.
I immediately saw Rory and took a seat next to her.
PARIS: This is a meeting.
TRISTAN: Yeah, sorry I'm late.
PARIS: What do you think you're doing?
TRISTAN: Uh, Professor Anderson forgot to include me when she made up the groups, so she told me to pick one.
PARIS: Fine, you have four other acts to choose from. Take your pick.
TRISTAN: Yeah, well Summer's in act 1, Beth and Jessica are in act 2, Kate's in act 3, and uh, Claire, Kathy, and Mary are in act 4. So this is the only one free of ex-girlfriends.
The truth about which group I picked was mainly because Rory was in that group. The whole ex-girlfriend thing just happened to be a coincidence. I really wanted to spend more time with Rory. I didn't care about the stupid play.
PARIS: So we're being punished for our good taste?
TRISTAN: Oh, Paris, you hurt me. Do you no longer have any need for me at all?
I knew Paris was still mad that I had gone out with her because Rory suggested it.
LOUISE: Yes, we have great need. You can be our Romeo.
RORY: Brad is Romeo!
I figured Rory wouldn't want me to be Romeo.
LOUISE: Put in your other contact Grandma. Tristan is Romeo. Brad can be the second guard on the left.
PARIS: No.
MADELINE: She's kinda right, Paris. Tristan was born to be Romeo.
I knew Madeline and Louise would suggest for me to be Romeo because I knew that had it bad for me just like any other girl except Rory.
PARIS: Hey, I'm the director and I'll decide who's born to be what, and Brad is Romeo.
LOUISE: Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
PARIS: What'd you say?
LOUISE: Just perhaps that someone is letting her personal feeling interfere with her leadership.
PARIS: My only feeling is that I don't wanna give the most important part to someone who can't even manage to stay in school.
LOUISE: I'm just gonna say one thing: fifty percent of our final grade.
TRISTAN: Is there gonna be any scratching involved, or is this just a verbal thing?
I thought it was funny watching the girls fight over if I should be Romeo or not.
PARIS: What do you think about this?
I looked at Rory wondering what she was going to say about me being Romeo.
RORY: Well, how are you at speaking in front of a lot of people?
BRAD: I tend to throw up.
PARIS: Fine, but I swear, you flake on this and you'll pray you get suspended.
TRISTAN: I gotta run. Are we done here?
I left to go meet Duncan and Bowman. I left the meeting not really caring about anything else but the fact that I wasn't going to see Rory until the next day.
PARIS: Rehearsal, tomorrow night.
It was my first day back from suspension and I couldn't wait to see Rory. I was talking to Duncan and Bowman after first period and I looked up and I saw Rory. She was talking to Paris, Madeline, and Louise. I assumed it was for school because she would never talk to them if she didn't have to.
PARIS: So, I say we meet in the cafeteria. The acoustics are very similar to the Grand Hall, and o, well look who showed up.
RORY: Sorry.
PARIS: Save it.
LOUISE: Well, well, well. Look who's back from suspension.
I saw her look my way so I acted preoccupied with talking so she didn't think I was staring at her.
RORY: Tristan got suspended again?
PARIS: Oh, like you hadn't noticed he'd been gone?
RORY: What did he do?
MADELINE: Took apart Mr. McCaffey's car and put it back together in the science building hallway.
RORY: You're kidding.
LOUISE: Yeah, well he didn't do it by himself. Duncan and Bowman were there too.
MADELINE: Plus the mechanics that they paid to do the actual work.
PARIS: Hey, anyone stupid enough to hand out with Butch Cassidy and the Sun- dunce kid deserves whatever they get.
RORY: How did he fall in with those guys?
MADELINE: The new year started and there they were, all three of them, side by side.
LOUISE: And practically dressing the same.
MADELINE: It's very On the Town.
I saw her look my way one last time before she walked way. I figured that she had heard something about me from Madeline or Louise. I wanted so badly just to run up to her and take her in my arms.
Summer after Sophomore year
After the last day of school I had no idea what I was going do with myself. I had just found out that the one girl who was special to me claimed that she hated me. I had to get my mind off of her somehow. Later that night I ran into Duncan and Bowman. They werent exactly the most popular people in school but I had to get my mind off of Rory somehow. We started pulling a couple of pranks. I guess I figured I would get more attention from Rory when I get back to school.
TRISTAN: Excuse me stockboy, could you tell me where I can find the shortening? Now that is a fine looking apron. I mean it, I mean, really sensational.
I couldn't stand him. I wanted Rory to like me not him. He didn't deserve her but then again I don't think I do either.
