A couple days after Tristan Janlan DuGrey discovered that Loralei Leigh Gilmore was attending Yale and was a member of the LDB, he immediately transferred, to Logan's dismay.
"He's still into you, Ror." Logan said, looking at his girlfriend stand in front of her mirror from his position on her bed.
"Oh Logan, come on. He does not. We ended things three years ago. It was over than and it's still over now." Rory said reassuringly, looking away from the mirror and heading towards Logan.
Sitting on her bed, she crawled in-between his legs, facing him, resting her chin on his chest so her blue eyes could stare into his brown ones.
"Rory, I know when a guy likes a girl, and Tristan likes you." Logan said, just saying what he was seeing.
"Logan. Listen to me because I'm only going to tell you one more time without being annoyed. I love you. Not Tristan. I am with you. Not Tristan. I want you. Not Tristan. I don't understand why you can't just accept that, because it's the truth." Rory told Logan, with all the honesty she had in her, her eyes never leaving his.
Logan let out the breath he had been holding. "Okay." Was all he could say because if he said anything else he feared he would show too many emotions, especially tears.
Rory climbed further up him and hugged Logan tightly, leaning in to him to give him a kiss. "I love you." Rory said.
"I love you." Logan said, knowing that this fight was over, for now anyway.
Rory was standing in the middle of a party at some Frat house that Logan, Finn, Colin, and Steph had talked her into when she felt a pair of eyes on her. Whirling around, she came face to face with the one and only Tristan DuGrey.
"Well well well... definitely not the Mary I remember..." Tristan said, unable to look away for too long. Rory was wearing the tightest pair of jeans he had ever seen and they hugged her ass just right. The jeans had a tear on her upper thigh, probably put there by the manufacturer, and they fell under her hipbone. The thong she was wearing poked out in the back, and the white tank top she was wearing clung to her.
"A thong? Mary, I'm shocked." Tristan said, although he was obviously pleased.
"Oh please, it was laundry day." Rory said in her defense, although in reality she had began dressing that way months before to get Logan's attention when she had unknowingly already had it and she happened to like the way she looked in her new wardrobe and so she still dressed that way when they went out.
"Here is your Sex on the Beach, Ror." Finn said, coming up next to his best friend's girl and handing her the glass.
"Rory Gilmore, when did you get so damn kinky?" Tristan asked, loving the new girl before him even more than the girl he knew in high school, because now she could keep up.
Rory and Finn both rolled their eyes. "Thanks Finn, where's Huntzberger?" Rory asked.
"He's by the bar with Colin, he sent for you though." Finn said, eyeing Tristan with distaste at the moment.
"Thank you Finn. It was nice talking to you Tristan... I think. I'll see you boys later, behave." Rory said, walking away with a sway of her hips, leaving both gentlemen to stare after her.
"She gets more beautiful everyday..." Tristan heard Finn say, but didn't comment, he only smirked and left to find some girl to entertain him for the evening.
Rory approached Logan with a sparkle in her eye and a bounce in her step. Walking up to him, she stood between him and Colin and captured his lips with her own.
"Hey." Rory said, smiling.
"Hey yourself." Logan said, wrapping his arms around her and placing his hands in her back pockets. "Where have you been?" Logan asked.
"Mingling and drinking." Rory said with a slight slur.
During Logan and Rory's interaction, Colin had been stolen away by Stephanie.
"How much longer do we have to stay?" Rory asked, he arms wrapped around his neck, her fingers playing with the hair at the nape of his neck.
"Aren't you having fun?" Logan asked, pulling Rory closer to him, staring into her eyes.
"No... let's dance." Rory said, pulling away from Logan and grabbing his hands, leading him to the dance floor.
And Logan Huntzberger followed her like a puppy, because he could never deny her anything, and Tristan DuGrey watched regretfully knowing he'd follow her to the ends of the earth, and Finn looked at the pair with a little bit of jealousy in the pit of his stomach, because he saw her before Logan had, and Colin just pulled Steph closer, because he didn't see Rory like that... he only had eyes for the blonde girl in his arms.
"My, oh my... Tristan DuGrey." Louise Grant said from behind Tristan as her and Madeline came up behind him at the party.
"Louise, Maddy, you two girls get even more lovely every 2 years I don't see you." Tristan said with his trademark smirk.
"What are you doing here, DuGrey?" Louise asked curiously, a cup in her hand, no doubt of some alcoholic beverage, and her free hand on her hip.
"Same thing you are, probably." Tristan said, causing Madeline to laugh.
"Tristan, I hope you aren't sleeping with the same guy Louise is... she doesn't want THAT kind of competition..." Madeline laughed, causing Louise to spit her drink back into her cup from laughter. These girls were obviously a little tipsier then they had initially let on.
"Okay, we are definitely not here for the same reason!" Tristan said, his eyes somewhat popping out of his head, "I'm hear for the party, girls."
"You're on the wrong floor then, Tris. The bedrooms are upstairs." Louise winked, the same way she had back at Chilton. It was refreshing to know that not everyone had changed.
Tristan chuckled and shook his head. "Maybe some other time... for now though, I must be off. Got to make the rounds you know... it was good seeing you two again... Hope to see you around." Tristan said, although he knew he wouldn't. Louise and Madeline hadn't gone to Yale so he knew he probably wouldn't run into them again anytime soon.
