Disclaimer: I own nothing, and that's all I'll ever own.

A/N: Wow, I cant Believe the reviews I got. Never ever would I had thought I would have gotten that response. Thank you all so much! You made my day! Kat - You're my first reviewer, Thank You! I luv you all! Now here it is! Oh, one thing. I don't own the few FRIENDS lines I put in here. Also, as some of you suspected Marty is VERY OCC in this chapter. Sorry to those who liked Marty.

For you Rogan fans out there. I'm sorry but this is a firm Trory. I have nothing against Rogans, actually I like them a lot, but I had this idea first. If you would like, my next story could be a Rogan just let me know. Please don't give up on my story though, it is very Logan friendly! I like that they're best friends in this story. Trust me I could have gone a VERY different way with their relationship!

Tristan stared at Logan for a second before looking up into the sky. It was a beautiful night. There were a lot of stars in the sky. Logan fidgeted waiting for Tristan to say something. He knew he had messed up not saying anything to him about that night. Even if it meant ruining the surprise that he went to school with Rory. After a minute, Logan finally said something.

"Say something, anything!"

Tristan finally looked at Logan and he didn't seem as mad as he expected him. Granted he was angry, but he also saw something that almost killed him. Hurt.

"Let me ask you a question" Tristan said "You've known me my whole life right?"

"Yea, since we were in diapers." Logan said skeptically.

"And as long as you've known me, who was the ONE fuckin' girl I gave a crap about!"

Tristan was pissed now. He felt confused and betrayed. Rory was so different from when he last saw her. He loved that she wasn't as shy as last time, but he was confused about her sleeping with Dean. He couldn't help the sliver of disappointment that went through him when he found out she wasn't a virgin anymore. Soon after that he wanted to slap himself because he sounded like such a jerk. He was far from a virgin himself.

Tristan couldn't find the words he wanted to say so he did what he had wanted to do since he found out about the news. He punched him.

Logan staggered backwards and grabbed the side of his face. When he looked at where Tristan had been he just saw his retreating back. He wasn't mad at Tristan for punching him. He knew Tristan and knew that was coming. He touched the side of his chin and thanked god Tristan hadn't punched him in the nose, because last time Tristan punched him he broke his nose.

Logan let himself back into Rory's apartment and got some ice. He checked on Rory and saw her sleeping soundly. He took his ice and headed back to the dorm. On the way back to his dorm, he kept thinking about the Tristan situation. He suspected that they would be friends again, but it would be hell before they made up.

By the time he got back to his apartment he could already feel the bruise on his chin. When he got inside he saw Colin and Finn staring blankly at the TV. Logan slammed the door causing them to jump and look up at him. Their eyes widened when they saw his face.

"What the hell happened to you?"

"What in bloody hell happened to you?" Colin and Finn said almost simultaneously.

"Well, Stephanie was born, then twenty years later she had to tell us that she never had sex in a public place. Causing Rory to wink at me because of that night in Australia and then Tristan noticed and made him do this" he said while pointing to his face "to me after we got Rory to her dorm save and sound." Logan said in almost one breath.

Finn and Colin just stared at him and didn't say anything. After a long silence Finn finally said something.

"That reminds me, You and Rory owe me a new Pool Table."

"You dumb ass! Did you not just hear what he said! Tristan punched him! You seriously need to work on seeing the bigger picture here." Colin said annoyed.

"What am I gonna do now? I mean, I'm an idiot for not telling him just because I wanted to surprise him!"

"Mate, calm down. You are sloshed, tired, and will have an ugly bruise on your face tomorrow. Go your room, pass out and leave all this to your to best mates. When have we ever let you down?"

Logan couldn't argue him there. He nodded and went into his room, closing the door behind him.

"Wow, I didn't know that this much drama could happen in one night." Colin said.

"I know, and now it's our job to get our friends out of all the shit they caused today. And I mean ALL of them."

Colin had to hand it to Finn. He could be a child sometimes, but when it came to his friends you could always go to him. He was a true friend.

"Well what do you suggest we do then?"

"You ready for this? First, we go to the store on campus thats open all night and get Rory a bunch of waters and a thing of Aspirin, considering that I used the last of her last bottle. We get the stuff, drop it off on her night table. Then, we go to Tristan's dorm. I don't care if he's sleeping or not and we talk to him. Try to get him to understand a little better about what happened between Rory and Logan and how Logan feels horrible. Which, in return, if he listens to us, will help Logan." Finn finished triumphantly.

Colin just stared at him amazed.

"Well, what are we waiting for!" Exclaimed Finn.

They grabbed their wallets and headed for the store. It was completely empty except for a guy they paid no attention to in their aisle. If they had been paying attention to him they would have seen that it was Marty.

Marty immediately recognized Finn and Colin. He hated them even more now that Him and Rory had drifted apart. He blamed Finn, Colin, Stephanie, and most of all, Logan for him not being with Rory.

He always thought that Logan and Rory were a 'thing' and he never believed Rory when she told him otherwise. It resulted in him getting mad at her one night while they were studying because Stephanie had gotten into a fight with Colin. Rory tried to explain that her friend needed her to Marty, but he had enough and blew up on her about not spending enough time with him because she was too busy with her boyfriend, Logan. To this day he stilled believed that Rory had lied to him.

"So, you think Rory will end up going out with Tristan?" Colin asked Finn.

"I hope so, Tristan deserves it after all he's been through. I've never seen someone so in love with someone else. He just needs to understand about what happened when Rory and Logan had sex. By the way, I still haven't gotten any money!"

"Hey, what about Stephanie and I?" Colin froze after he said that.

"You love Steph? Oh my Lord, I mean, I always knew you did, but I didn't think you did. Wow, did you tell her? You should tell her, I know she loves you too." Finn said a mile a minute.

"Whoa, easy there killer. Yes, I love Stephanie. No I haven't told her and I plan on telling her tomorrow."

"Wow, this is just like a soap opera."

They got their things and were starting to walk up the aisle to the counter when Finn stopped short. Colin looked back at him with exasperated face.

"You know what I just realized these really are 'The Days of Our Lives'" Finn looked amazed.

"You dork"

"It's true!"

Marty stood there amazed. He totally forgot what he came in here for. All he could think about was that he was right. Rory and Logan had slept together. That slut! She had Logan now she was moving onto a new guy. Marty left the store and walked angrily back to his dorm.

What Marty hadn't known was that Rory and Logan had slept together after She and Marty had stopped talking.

Finn and Colin dropped the Aspirin and water by Rory's bed and each kissed her forehead before leaving.

Their next stop would be the hardest task. Getting Tristan to understand.

They got to Tristan's dorm room and knocked on the door. Tristan's roommate, whom they didn't know answered after a minute.

"What the hell do you want at 1 o' clock in the mornin'?"

"Hello kind sir, We were wondering if a certain Tristan Dugrey lived here?" Said Colin in false cheeriness.

"Yeah he lives here, but he's sleeping" as he said that he pointed to the door to the left.

He was about to shut the door, but they pushed past him without another word. They opened the door without so much of a knock.

When they got into Tristan's room they found Tristan sleeping on his bed over the covers and fully clothed.

"Do you want to do the honors, or should I?" Finn whispered to Colin.

"You can."

Finn walked over to the side of the bed and leaned in so his mouth was near Tristan's ear.

"WAKE UP YOU LOUSY PIECE OF SHIT!" Finn yelled in his ear. Colin and Finn started cracking up when they saw his response.

Tristan shot up in bed yelling, "What in hell!" He looked around wildly until his eyes rested on Colin and Finn laughing. He scowled at them.

"What the fuck are you guys doing here, in my dorm?"

After Colin and Finn calmed down a little Finn answered.

"Mate, thank you, that was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Anyway, back to business. I'm sure you already know why we are really here. In case not, I will tell you, We are here because he have to make everyone happy so we can be happy. When Rory, Logan, and You are not happy, well, its just not fun. Logan feels terrible about what happened."

"Yeah, well, he should just be glad I didn't break his nose. Again" He added as a afterthought.

"Yes, but you don't know what happened that night. Unfortunately I do because it was my Pool Table. Yes, I know, poor me. Anyways, that night Rory and Logan were very drunk. It was just the five of us at my house in Australia and we were very bored. Rory and Logan had gone off to find something to do, they again, unfortunately found my Pool Table and started to play pool. Things heated up and, well, we all know what happened. They regretted it the next day and both decided it was a huge mistake. The only reason Logan didn't tell you was because he already had known you were coming to Yale and wanted to surprise you about meeting Rory."

No one talked for a minute while Tristan took in all the information. Finally, he spoke.

"So, what happened with Rory and Dean?"

"None of us knew much about Rory and Dean's relationship. The only thing we knew about Dean was that he was a Jackass and broke up with her for the third time in front of all of us at her 'auctioning' party.'" Finn replied.

"Listen, It's late and It's been a eventful night and I'm very tired. I'll talk to you tomorrow."

"Yes, It's certainly been a drama-filled night because 'These ARE the Days of Our Lives'." Finn said nodding knowingly

"You are an idiot. Yea, Tristan, We're gone. See ya." Said Colin for the first time since the beginning of the conversation.

Tristan watched Colin pushed Finn out of the room and out of his dorm past his annoyed roommate. He shook his head and shut his door quickly falling into bed afterward.

Rory woke up the next morning, or rather, later that morning and started to get up. She realized that was a big mistake immediately, she felt like the ringing and dizziness was going to kill her. She laid back down and waited a minute before resting against the headboard. She opened her eyes slowly and looked around the room. She saw the Aspirin and water bottles and knew exactly who they were from. She took to Aspirins and downed the rest of the bottle to get rid of the cotton-mouth she had. She got up and took a shower and got changed. It was Saturday so she didn't have a class. Thank God. She went out on her desperate search for coffee.

When Rory got to her precious coffee stand she got two extra large cups. When she started walking away from the stand she almost knocked into Marty.

"Marty, sorry I didn't see you there. So how have you been?" She said awkwardly.

"How have I been? I've been well enough. How have YOU been? I mean besides sleeping around with every guy you see." He said bitingly.

"What!"

"You heard me. I know you slept with Logan! You lied to me, you little Slut! Now you are going onto a new guy! That's grand! I can't believe I actually had a crush on a fuckin' slut like you!"

By the time he had finished people all around them were watching and Rory was crying, hard. She quickly turned away and started running toward Logan's Dorm room.

When she got to Logan's dorm she knocked on the door and noticed the coffee cups that she was still holding. She tried to take a sip but she couldn't between trying to catch her breath and sobbing.

Finn answered the door and when he saw Rory be immediately swept her into his arms. He led her to the couch and took the coffee cups and set them on the table in front of them. He went and got Logan and Colin. They all comforted her until she calmed down a little bit.

"Ace, what happened. Tell me what happened." Logan pleaded.

"He-he-he..." She tried to say before crying again.

"Who, who did this to you?" Colin said.

Rory took a deep breath and started to tell them what happened.

"Then, he said he couldn't believe he had a crush on a fuckin' slut like me!" She said before curling up into Finn.

"I'M GONNA KILL HIM!" The three boys said.

"Guys, don't he doesn't deserve the effort. He's a jerk, I mean, what he said wasn't true, right?" Rory said innocently.

"Of course not love, he's an asshole. Do not listen to one thing he said!"

They talked a while longer until they heard a knock at the door. It was Tristan.
