As Rory walked into the halls of Chilton (AKA hell), she could tell something was different. The halls were quiet, no one was at their lockers and there was an eerie silence. That all changed, however, when Rory turned the corner into the corridor that held the school notice board. Everyone was clustered around it, talking excitedly. As Rory walked up to the crowd, she saw Madeline Louise and Paris standing near the back of the crowd, also talking excitedly.
"Hey guys, what's happening?" Rory asked. She and Paris had been acting quite civil towards each other lately and could even manage to hold a conversation by themselves without Paris getting angry.
"Rory! It's so exciting! School Dance!" Madeline exclaimed.
"Ooh, when?" asked Rory.
"A week from Friday! There's gonna be a really cool band AND it's being held in pub - with an open bar! Chilton's covering all costs!" Louise exclaimed.
"Oh, cool, will Dean be able to come?" Rory asked.
"It's Chiltonites only Rory." Paris stated.
"Oh, don't worry; we'll sneak him in somehow!" Madeline said.
Just then, the bell rang for the beginning of class and the four of them walked together, discussing what they would be wearing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was the Thursday lunchtime before the school dance and there had been rumours flying around the school like wildfire.
Madeline came and sat next to Rory. Louise and Paris were close behind.
"Hey Rory, have you heard the latest? News is their flying in Eminem to perform!" Louise gossiped excitedly.
"Nah, that's old news!" Madeline argued.
"Fine, you have newer then?" Louise asked accusingly.
"Yep, hot off the press. Guess who's coming into town for the dance?"
"Who?" asked Louise.
"Tristan Dugrey!" Madeline announced triumphantly.
At the mention of his name, Paris snorted milk out of her nose and Rory dropped the book she had been holding onto her lunch tray.
Both recovered quickly and acted as if nothing had happened. Louise and Madeline didn't notice either - they were to busy exchanging other gossip.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Rory!" Paris called out, running towards her. School had just gotten out and Rory was walking towards the bus stop.
"What is it?" Rory asked politely, with a little disgruntled hint in her voice.
"I wanted to ask you if." Paris trailed off, a little embarrassed.
"What is it, Paris? Come on, otherwise I'm, gonna miss my bus." Rory asked.
"Would you please help me to pick an out fit for the school dance?" Paris asked, looking down at her shoes.
"Aren't Madeline and Louise good at that?" Rory asked.
"Yes, but sometimes they go a little bit overboard. You, on the other hand are always down to earth about things like this. So will you help me?" Paris asked hopefully.
"Of course I will! Why don't you come home with me tomorrow, we can pick out our outfits, have some dinner and get ready together, okay?" Rory smiled as her bus pulled into the stop.
"Thank you!" Paris said meaningfully as Rory turned and got on the bus.
