I'm saying this now. Disclaimers apply to the rest of the story.

Thanks for the support all you people. I'd tell my English teacher that but I highly doubt that she'd believe me.

"Wow Mom, you didn't kill him."

"Yeah this one's a keeper."

"Uh huh. Are you ready to go Tristan?"

"Sure Rory if you're ready."

In the car

"So what kind of charity dinner are we going to?"

"It's for disadvantaged kids in Africa. My parents are one of the largest contributors."

"That's really sweet but I have a question for you."

"Shoot."

"Well you mentioned something about your parents being weird about you wanting a date to meet them. So why did you want me to meet them?"

"Since you apparently find me increasingly annoying I want you to see how I really am behind the whole Chilton thing. You know I really have two faces and you're going to be the first to know both sides. Not even my parents know how I act at Chilton."

"Doesn't the headmaster mention your um…attitude?"

"Nope the only thing he reports on are my grades, which by the way I have the 4th highest GPA in the class."

"Do you really have a little sister?"

"Yeah, she's great not even annoying."

"She must be so cute."

"Why would she be cute?"

"Cause you are minus your attitude…I did not just say that."

"Sorry babe you just admitted what every girl already knows."

"See again that attitude once you start to be a nice guy you're a jerk all over again."

"Well I'll just stop talking if it bothers you that much."

"No, I want to hear about your other life."

"Okay, what do you want to know?"

"Um…how old is your sister?"

"Eight."

"Wow, such great detail."

"Well, my attitude might come out again. You can stop with the small talk. We're here."

"Um…wow, are you sure we're dressed right."

"Yeah don't worry it's semi-formal."

Inside

"Hey, Mom. Dad. Sorry we're late. The drive took a little longer than expected." He followed the statement up by kissing his mother on the cheek.

"No problem. Traffic can be a pain. Is this the young girl that you were so anxious for us to meet?"

"Yeah, this is Rory Gilmore."

"Hello, sir."

"A Gilmore? Your grandparents are lovely people."

"Yeah, they're really sweet."

"Please both of you have a seat they're about to start."

Tristan being a true gentleman pulled out Rory's seat before sitting down.

Rory noticing Tristan's little sister decided to talk to her.

"Hi. What's your name?"

"Jessica Kimberley DuGrey. Are you Tristan's girlfriend?"

"Um…no."

"Then why are you here?"

"Because he was mean to me and then decided to be nice and bring me here."

"Hey, I was not being mean, Mary."

"Sure you weren't. So what grade are you in, Jessica?"

"Wow. Has Tristan been a good brother and helped you with homework?"

"Yeees."

"So is Tristan a good boy?"

"Yes."

"Don't worry Rory. She's just saying that cause she doesn't know how he really acts."

"Hey, I am a perfectly good son, Mom. And since when is the topic of conversation me?"

"Since you brought someone that I can tell embarrassing stories to?"

"No not the stories."

"Ooh…stories. This'll be great dirt at Chilton." (A/N - I'm going to stop here since it's kind of pointless now.)

Back to Stars Hollow

"Wow."

"What's that supposed to mean, Mary?"

"How can such great people raise someone like you?"

"Well, thanks for the compliment."

"Seriously, how can you stand it?"

"Stand what?"

"I hear dramatic attitude changes are bad for your health."

"I'm not that bad at school."

"You have a very good way of avoiding the truth."

"Are you trying to tell me that I'm a horrible person?"

"Not horrible. You are really sweet to your sister."

"So you would go out with me if I acted this way all the time?"

"Why? What are you getting at?"

"Well, will you go out with me?"

"But you see I already did."

"Please? A real date? One that doesn't involve my parents?"

"All right. But you better be nice or I'll sic Luke and Jess on you."

"If I'm not living up to your standards, I'll take whatever punishment you fell necessary."

"All right, when?"

"Saturday. 6:30. And dress casually with tennis shoes."

"Good night."

"What? No kiss?"

"Maybe you'll have better luck next week."

"I sure hope so." Too bad Rory didn't hear him this time.
