Note: Ok I hope everyone reads this cos I won't repeat it OPPS! THERE I GO BEING ARROGANT AGAIN! Well fine If I'm arrogant for simply asking people to take a little time out and tell me they like my story or how to improve it then fine I'm sorry if wanting to see if people actually like my story makes me arrogant than fine I'm arrogant and if this story is crap I'm sorry but I don't remember asking you to read it. Sorry to everyone else who does give me reviews and you don't know how much I appreciate it but after that I probably wont write a fiction again but I will finish it because it is a creative release and I know some people actually like reading it. Thankyou
Rory Gilmore stepped off the bus replacing her book back into her bag
Tristan sat at the bench waiting for Rory. Seeing her getting off the bus he quickly approached
"Morning Mary" he greeted
"Hey Tristan" she returned
Tristan handed her a cup of coffee
"Thanks" she smiled gratefully
"I need a favour" Rory asked
"Mary Mary Mary I knew you would ask someday quickly I'm sure that janitor's closet will be free" he smirked
"Don't be an idiot" laughed Rory "Do you mind if Paris and Jess share a ride with us?" she asked hopefully
Tristan didn't really want any interruption from others but seeing the look on Rory's face he couldn't say no
"Sure" he smiled "But how on earth did you the two of them together?" he asked as they walked towards the entrance gates of Chilton
Rory grinned mischievously
"Well Paris doesn't know that Jess is going with her yet and Jess was blackmailed into it" Rory sipped her coffee
Tristan was amused
"Lorelai's idea?" he asked
"Hey don't you think I would do that?" she asked offended
"No Mary" said Tristan sliding an arm around her waist "You're far too nice although you will enjoy seeing it you wouldn't orchestrate it"
Rory folded her arms and pouted
"You look cute when you do that" Tristan told her
Rory glared
"Okay shutting up now" he said
The two entered the building
"Hey T-man" guys called
"Hi Tristan" said a girl
"Hey Tristan Hey Rory" another group called
Tristan nodded to each of them
"How do they know who I am?" asked Rory
"What you think that after being my girlfriend for almost a week that no one would know your name" he smirked
"You're right" Rory said surprising Tristan
"I am?"
"Yeah I'm bound to stand out after all I'm probably the only girl that has lasted more than two days" she remarked
"You're harsh" he replied a frown on his face
"Just truthful" she said
"I have to go"
Tristan quickly gave her a kiss on the check before she had a chance to escape from his arm
"Bye" she muttered quickly before walking away
Just then John and Amanda interrupted them
"You two sure are hard to find but luckily we got that shot" remarked John holding his camera
Tristan didn't reply
"So we heard on the grapevine that you and Rory are going to the daughters of America pre coming out ball" said Amanda
"Yes" replied Tristan tersely wanting to follow Rory
"Great so we'll see you at Rory's place then" said John
"What?" Tristan's head snapped back around
"Well we have to be there to capture those magic moments! The project would be incomplete without them" John grinned
"Sure, I've got to go to class see you round"
Tristan left
"That was weird" remarked Amanda
"It definitely was" said John
- Later that day
All day Tristan and Rory avoided each other until they couldn't anymore
Rory took an available seat in her photography class and for once she wasn't next to Tristan who was seated in his usual desk at the back row
"Good afternoon class" greeted the teacher "I think by now you are all sick of theory so if you will follow me into the Darkroom I will show you how to print your photos"
The class followed the teacher down a corridor in to a medium sized room where 15 state of the art enlargers sat opposite this was a large sink running from one end of the room to the other the sink was filled with trays
The teacher explained in detail how to use the enlargers and how long the paper should be in the chemical
"Now I want you to understand these is no light aside from the red lights allowed so you will be in complete darkness but it isn't hard once you get used to it"
Rory stood listening intently
Tristan watched with a couple of friends at the back watching the teacher pour chemicals
The class returned to the classroom
"Now on Monday you will swap the films with your partners and develop your photos with your partner at the allocated time"
The teacher proceeded to announce everyone's allocated times for the darkroom Rory and Tristan had received Monday afternoon
The shrill Chilton bell rang
"Enjoy your weekends" the teacher called
A group of happy chattering teenagers left the room
Rory had to make a quick stop at her locker before heading for the bus turning the lock she opened the locker to reveal a single stunning white rose with a card attached
It read:
I know, I know, not very original at all but I just wanted to say I cant wait for tonight and before I forget I want to tell you how much I've enjoyed had this week - thankyou
See you at seven
Love
Tristan
Rory collected the rose from her locked dumped her unwanted books and headed out to the bus, a small smile on her face
Note: Sorry this chapter was bad but if you see the above not you'll probably understand why – thanks for reading
