Authors note: I'm doing a quick update for you guys. I hope you enjoy it. I got some time on my hands, so I'm writing two in one day [smiles] Review! Enjoy!
Claimer: Luis, Kevin, junior, jenny, 'Kathy'
Disclaimer: Unfortunately I do not own anything that has to do with the original GG script. But I still claim Chad Michael Murray to be my husband. If any one hasn't heard or seen it, watch it [One Tree Hill, WB, Tuesday @ 8.] Chad makes the show sexy (wink)
"I can't believe how many people are here!" She exclaimed, shock over whelming her. "I mean, who would have known that practically the entire student body, and all their friends, would come to a Halloween party."
"I could have told you that, Rory." Luis said draping his arm around her.
Rory smiled into him but slipped away. "I'll be back Luis, I'm going to see if I could find some of my friends." She stood back. "Is that okay?"
"Don't get lost in the crowd." Luis chuckled, waving her off.
"Ill try, but if I don't come back within the next half an hour, send a search party."
They shared one last laugh before Rory disappeared into the crowd of people.
* * * * * *
"Wuddup Playa?" Kevin said, as Luis joined a group of guys at a table.
"How's everything with your wife?" Junior said chuckling.
"I'm not married!" Luis exclaimed with a slick smile.
"I think you're whopped." Kevin exclaimed, causing the whole table to laugh and nod in agreement.
"You think so too Junior?" Luis asked; his eyebrow arched.
"Sorry to say man, but hell yeah! She got you so wrapped up that you have no time for us anymore. When one of our boys has no time for us that certainly leads to the classification of being whooped." He grinned slightly at Luis. "Sorry man, but I think your little baby Rory, got you so bad that you cant even see anymore."
"You guys know I would never back out on you."
"Hm.I don't know. I think it's true and your really have a 'thing' for Rory." Kevin replied, crossing his arms to his chest.
"I never back out." Luis said reassuringly. "You'll see."
* * * * * *
"Rory, is that you?" a petite girl asked, tapping Rory on the shoulder.
Rory turned around, warmly smiled, greeting her friend with a hug. Kathy was a small girl, Small feet, small hands, face and small period. She was only five feet even, dark long curly hair, slanted eyes and full lips. She was quite radiant her self, being a mix of Puerto Rican and different types of Asian.
Looking at Kathy's costume, Rory smiled. "A cat?"
"Of course, cat's are fierce creatures. Woman are like cat's, bitchy and vicious. That's why we rule the jungle." They shared a laugh, before Kathy broke it. "And your Cleopatra right?" Rory nodded in reply. "Nice."
"Yeah well, how's the party been?" Rory asked biting her lower lip.
"It's okay. I mean I don't know. A few minuets before you came, some guy got into a fight with his girlfriend. Ay! She went 'loco' on him, talking of some other woman. Poor guy just stood there, not even saying a word. You could see in his eyes, that he hadn't done anything wrong. This is why I prove my point to woman being vicious."
Rory sighed in agreement. "That's sad. So do you think they broke up?"
"Well by the look of it, lets just say, he wont be going home with her tonight. Poor guy, looks in love. But who ever knows with a man eh?"
"Yeah your right." Rory answered quietly.
"Que te pasa, Rory?" Kathy asked, arching an eyebrow at her solemn friend.
"Nothing happened to me Kathy." She said reassuringly, not even having to ask her friend what 'que te pasa' meant. She picked up a few things being around Kathy, a lot and automatically knew it meant what happened to you. "Im just a little tired and-well-Im okay." She said with a weary smile.
"Oh." She said giving her friend a gentle pat on the back. "Well, im going to try to find my pest of a boyfriend. Tell Luis I said hi and you take care of your self Rory." She said kissing Rory on the cheek before muttering a 'have fun' which Rory pretended not to hear and got lost in the crowd again.
She couldn't take being trapped within hundreds of bodies, she didn't know. She needed fresh air and some room to breathe. Heading to the balcony, hoping no one was 'occupying it'. She got outside, closing the doors behind her and sucked in a breath of fresh air.
"What are you doing?" She heard the tender voice ask.
She turned around and was face to face with --- Tristan. "What are you doing?" She asked back, in surprise.
"Forget it." He said sighing and looked away; sitting on a swinging bench.
She rolled her eyes, frustrated. 'Why couldn't thing's be normal?'
She built up courage and walked over to him. She sat down beside him, remaining quiet. Letting the air touch her skin lightly, causing Goosebumps to travel up her arms.
Tristan noticed her shiver and sighed. Taking off his jacket, handing it to her and remaining silent. She said a 'thanks' and he muttered a 'welcome'.
"So, how have you been?" She asked uncomfortably.
"Fine. You?" He responded bitterly.
"I'm okay. How's Jenny?"
"She's good."
"That's good. Where is she anyway? I would think you two would be out here together." She said with a slight smile.
He knew the smile meant no harm but he hated the way it played on her lips. "Where's Luis?" He asked coldly.
She was taken a back by his response, but knowing he was still angry, she let it slide. "He's probably with his friends. I just came out here to get fresh air."
"Oh." He replied simply.
They sat there, awkward moment of silence. " Rory listen, im fine, you don't need to check up on me. Im a big boy, handling my self isn't a problem."
"But-." She started -
"No, Rory. I don't need your pity. I'm fine; I'm just trying to figure out my own life. When I find out what it is, then I'll talk to you. But for now, I need my space."
"That's not fair!" Rory exclaimed, looking into his blue eyes, fury fled out of her own blue eyes. "Cant we just be friends again?"
"Wait, rewind! What's not fair? That I'm finding my own breathing room, away from you? Or - Or that finally I found someone who actually may care about me?" He stung back coldly. "Tell me Rory, because now I'm the one who's confused." He asked, looking straight in her eyes, he didn't want to say what he was about to say, but the words spilt out. "You shouldn't be worried about me, you should check on that little boyfriend of yours."
She sat there, a minuet, thinking of the words that just fell from his lips. She was lost of words and couldn't find any thing to say. No come back. No smart comment. No, No-nothing. She stood up, not looking at him and turned to walk away.
Tristan sat there, staring at her retreating form, even after she was gone. He had seen it, even if he tried not to look, the tears that were in her eyes. He seen them, one fall, another she fought back. He got up, heading over to the ledge, looking over, and bit his lower lip.
* * * * * * *
Rory put yield to her forming tears, entering the room full of people. People grouping, dancing, well-freaking, drinking, smoking and doing other obnoxious things. She sighed in disgust and made her way to the front of the house.
Scooping the room with her radar, Rory found Luis. Sitting by the corner of the room, with a bunch of 'in decent' looking girls and his boys surrounding him. Rory strode over, careful not to bump into anyone.
"Luis? Can we leave now?" She said rather demandingly as she approached the group.
He looked at her, then back and his boys, sarcasm in his eyes. "Why baby? The party has just started."
"I want to go home." She said, this time with more force.
"Cant Tristan or Kathy, give you a ride?" He said, saving face.
Rory stood there, looking at her 'too good to be true' boyfriend in disbelief. She rolled her eyes and said, "Whatever Luis." Walking away, confidently.

Rory was about to tap Kathy on the shoulder, when suddenly the power went out. Screams filled the air, people started pushing, panicking. 'What the hell was happening?'
