He's Not You
A/N: Okay, so this idea just keeps floating around in my head, you know? So, I thought that just maybe I would be willing to give it a shot. It started from reading other fanfic, and then just kind of picked up from there. There are some ideas in here that I'm sure you've all seen before, but there's more that I've just thought up in my spare time.
Disclaimer: I don't own it, obviously. But wouldn't it be awesome if I did? Matt and Chad would be mine! Mine! Mine!
The True Gilmore Girl's Fan Challenge: ok, stupid as it may seem, here's the challenge. In each chapter I'll use a line or few from the show. Figure out which one it is, and add that at the bottom of your review. Person that figured out the most at the end is the best. Just some friendly competition, and a way to get more reviews!
Chapter 2: Colorful Midgets
"I can't believe they are making us wear these dorky uniforms," Rory complained while opening her new locker in the academic building.
"Hey, at least we don't have to wear them around campus. Just in here."
"But what's the point in that?"
"I don't know. Hey, we can hem them when class is over, make it our own, you know?" Louise said, trying to lighten the mood.
Tristan, Logan and Collin were walking down the hall as they spotted the two new girls, easily standing out from their usual surroundings.
The blonde sent the boys a flirtatious grin, and the brunette lowered her eyes, obviously embarrassed by her friend's forwardness. 'Who woulda thought I'd ever see the day when a Mary and Magdelon were best friends?' Tristan thought to himself before heading to his own locker.
Rory and Louise went to one of the large tables in the back corner of the room and sat down across from a blonde already set up for the class.
"Are you Lorelei and Louise?" she asked.
"Yah, but I go by Rory. How'd you know?"
"I'm one of your roommates, Paris Gellar. My life coach tells me our meeting will be the beginning of a life destiny, and I just want to let you know that I may seem intimidating, but I am a good person and friend," she told them. Obviously this girl lost no time in getting straight to whatever it was she wanted.
Rory was saved from making a snide remark when the three guys she had seen in the hall a few minutes earlier joined them at the table. The tall, dirty blonde slid into the seat next to her. "Hey Mary," he said grinning.
Rory looked at him with impatience sparkling from her eyes. "It's Rory."
"But Mary suits you so much better."
"Whatever," she replied, turning her attention to the other two. "And you are…"
"Logan Huntzberger, at your service. And this here is Collin. The asshole is Tristan though." The other blonde answered, grinning.
"Well, I'm Louise Grant and this is Lorelei Leigh Gilmore Hayden the third," Louise said, cutting in.
"Wow, that's a long name Mary."
"It's Rory. And there is no number mentioned on my birth certificate. There just happens to be two people named the same thing before me."
"Wait, do you have a brother? Tall, blonde?" Collin asked, forever observant.
"Tyler? Yah, we're twins. Why, have you met him?"
"He's our new suite mate," Collin explained.
"Does that mean you're gonna be spending a lot of time in our room Mary?" Tristan asked suggestively.
"I plan to be," Louise answered, grinning at Logan. He grinned back.
"Alright class, settle down," the teacher started, entering the room, eyes searching. She then spotted the two girls. "Ah, there you are. Class, we have two new students with us today. Please say hello to Miss Hayden and Miss Gilmore."
"Helloooo Mary!"
Rory and Louise were back in their rooms unpacking when they heard the door open. Rory went out to see who it was, because they still hadn't met their other suite mates yet. There was a tall brunette and a shorter girl with curly black locks taking off their coats.
"I'm Summer," the brunette said, introducing herself.
"I'm Rory," she replied, putting on her best smile.
"It's nice to meet you! I'm Madeline!" the other girl answered. Rory laughed at her perkiness.
"Are you cheerleaders? You seem really peppy and all, you know?" Louise asked.
"Yah, I'm head cheerleader. The headmaster told me you guys were interested. I'll get your uniforms to you later today." Summer told them matter of factly.
"Great, but we're not going to be here later. We're going over to my brother's suite for our traditional movie night thing."
"That's fine, I'll drop it off later."
"So why do you keep calling her Mary?" Logan asked Tristan as he was searching threw his pocket for the keys.
"She just seems like a goody goody, that's all."
Logan studied Tristan's face. "You like her," he declared, grinning as he opened the door.
"I do not like her!"
"Do too!"
"Who does Tristan like?" Finn asked from his position on the couch next to Tyler.
"It seems that Tristan has a thing for Tyler's sister!" Collin answered proudly, glad this time not to be the last to know.
At this Tyler looked up. "That's not so smart man. She's not an easy catch. Doesn't go for the usual rich, hot type either. Her last boyfriend was a bag boy at a grocery market."
Tristan laughed. "Is she fair game though?"
"Yup. But hurt her and I'll be forced to hurt you, which would be a shame, cause I'm sure your nice deep down," he retorted jokingly.
Rory and Louise balanced the bags in their hands and rapped on the door. Tristan of course, was the one to answer. Without acknowledging him, Rory hurried into the common room to dump the heavy load on the table in front of the television.
"Nice pajamas Mary. I didn't know you were sleeping over. No worries though, my bed is big enough for all three of us!"
Rory blushed, all to Tristan's delight. She'd worn one of her normal graphic tees from Abercrombie, but she was clad in plaid pajama pants as bottoms for comfort.
"So are you here on business or pleasure?"
"It's movie night."
"Aaaah," he said, still not understanding. "So what's in the bags?"
Just then, Tyler came out of his room. "What snacks did you get?"
"Ummm, twinkies, Ben&Jerry's, chips, cookies, whipped cream, and pudding!"
"Good. And the movies?"
"Grease, The Sound of Music, and Willy Wonka."
"Ugghh. God Rory, how many times do we have to watch that stupid movie with a bunch of colorful midgets running around?" Tyler asked in disgust.
"I love the Oompa Lumpas!" Rory quipped, trying to make her voice sound tearful.
Tristan and Louise watched their bantering and laughed.
A few minutes later, everyone was sprawled out somewhere in the common room, eating junkfood and watching Willy Wonka.
Finn, Louise, and Logan were crowded on the couch, and Rory and Tristan were sitting with their backs against it and behind the table, for easy access to the junk food. Tyler was sprawled out in front of the table, engrossed in the movie, despite his earlier protests. Collin sat with him, suprisingly (or not so much) also engrossed in the classic tale of a weird man and lots of colorful midgets.
Just then, a knock came at the door. Tristan got up to answer it, and came back followed by Summer. "I got your uniforms!" she told Rory and Louise, tossing them into their laps.
"I like the skirt Mary!"
"Why do you guys wanna do that?" Collin asked. "It's just another way of degrading women. It doesn't look like fun at all either. It's kind of pointless."
Rory laughed. "I need my athletic credit to graduate Collin.""What's her excuse?" he asked, referring to Summer.
"Do you golf?" Summer asked.
"Yah. Why?"
"You explain yours, I'll explain mine," she answered matter of factly, making everyone in the room but Collin laugh.
A/N: so what do you think. I've decided this is going to be a Trory, since thas like the number one crowd pleaser. Reveiw! Tell me what you think! Please please please please please!
