Summery: Rory Gilmore just moved to Chilton from SHH, there she meets Tristan, who is basically the King of the school, and boy does he know it. When Rory stops Tristan from beating someone up and practically yells in his face, war is declared.

Rory lay on her bed. The thoughts of the days events going through her mind.

She closed her eyes momentarily. Why did she even care what those people thought? The way she was acting was so not her.

Okay maybe it was.

A little.

It was just that she hated the fact that everyone in Chilton thought that she was the newest skank.

Rory's eyes hardened. It's not even any of their business. What was it to them that she and Tristan were going out? It's not like their lives revolved other people's relationships.

Those people don't have lives! Rory thought angrily.

But it still hurt to have them saying that she was a slut.

Rory laid into her pillow and thought about the way she treated Tristan that day. She knew that she was unfair to him.

Rory went downstairs and turned on the TV. There was a Simpsons Marathon showing. Rory sat on the couch and hoped that the families funny antics could take her mind off that day.

Just as she had started to get into the show the doorbell rang.

When she opened the door she saw a devilishly handsome Tristan standing there, for once no smirk playing on his lips.

Rory sighed, "Hi."

Tristan looked at her, "Hey. Can I come in?"

Rory nodded, "Yeah." She let him in and led him to the couch. "Can I get you anything?"

Tristan shook his head. "No. All I want is for you to tell me what's wrong."

Rory blinked but didn't say anything.

"Rory, please." Tristan practically pleaded. For once letting down his tough-boy act. "Tell me what's wrong. Was it something I did?"

"No!" Rory exclaimed suddenly. "You've been great."

"Then tell me."

Rory let out a breath and began. "Okay, you know how you kissed me this morning?"

Tristan's eyes twinkled. "How could I forget?"

Rory smiled softly. "Well lots of people saw and at lunch I went to the girls room and there were these girls."

Tristan stopped instantly.

"They were saying things like I was a slut and the only reason that you wanna be with me is because I slept with you at Madeline's party." Rory closed her eyes, "I know that it's not that big of a deal but, I don't know..."

Tristan moved closer to her and wrapped her in his arms. "Rory, do not listen to a word that those girls say. You are anything but a slut and I wanna be with you because I care about you."

Rory stared into his sapphire pools, "You care about me?"

"I do." He caressed the apple of her cheek, "Don't doubt that."

Rory smiled at him and leaned over and captured his lips. Tristan was almost surprised by her actions. Usually, he was the one who initiated the kisses. But he liked it that she felt comfortable enough with him that she would kiss him.

When Rory pulled away, her face was slightly flushed. "Tristan, there's something that I have to tell you."

He looked worried. "What?"

Rory took a breath, "I know that you're used to being able to make out with girls on lockers and stuff," Rory said, thinking of Summer "But that's not really me."

"I'm not following..."

"Could we not maybe display our affection so publicly?"

"Is this about what those girls said?" Tristan asked.

"No!" Rory exclaimed, "It's just I can't be one of those couples who show the whole world that they're dating. It's not really any of their business. I'm not comfortable with flaunting my feelings."

"So no making out on lockers?"

"No making out on lockers."

"Can I kiss you just a little?"

Rory thought for a second. "Okay but no heavy make out sessions."

Tristan nodded. "No problem,"

Rory smiled and hugged him. While still in his arms she looked up at him, "Would you like to stay awhile?"

Tristan grinned. "I'd counted on it."

"Favourite flavour ice cream?" Tristan asked.

After enjoying a well deserved make out session, Tristan and Rory had decided to have a little getting to know you time.

"Coffee!" Rory said with glee.

Tristan rolled his eyes, "Figures."

Rory poked her tongue out, "Favourite movie?"

"I'm not answering that."

"Oh but you must." Rory said defiantly, "Come on, it can't be that bad."

"Nuh uh."

"Tristan!"

"Okay fine," Tristan said exasperatedly, "Aladdin."

Rory bit her lip to try to keep from laughing, "No really? The almighty Tristan DuGrey's favourite movie is a Disney movie?"

"Really." Tristan said charmingly, "What about you? Favourite movie?"

"Casablanca." Rory said straight away.

"I don't think I've seen that." Tristan said.

Rory looked scandalised. "You haven't seen Casablanca? But it's a classic!"

"What can I say? I'm one of a kind."

"I have to introduce you to the wonders of old movies one of these days."

"I'm sure you will."

Rory smiled. "Favourite singer/band?"

"Simple Plan."

"I approve!" Rory said happily.

"What about you?"

"PJ Harvey."

"Who's he?"

"He's a she and she's a singer."

"Never heard of her."

"I could tell."

Tristan laughed and asked, "Favourite TV show?"

"The Simpsons." Rory said proudly.

"Well my oh my." Tristan said "Looks like we share the same favourite TV show."

"We do?"

"Yeah we do."

Rory smiled as she saw Tristan moving in for a kiss.

At that very annoying moment, the doorbell decided to ring.

Frustrated, Rory pulled away, "Better get that."

"Yeah."

And when she opened the door she was surprised to see James, Steve, Ray, Lane, Holly, Alexis and Terri. Each one carrying food and drinks. "What are you guys doing here?"

AN: Hope you enjoyed that folks! Now just have to say something. I stole that whole 'It's just I can't be one of those couples who show the whole world that they're dating. It's not really any of their business.' From the OC. Thankyou to everyone who reviewed! I love you all to bits! Please keep 'em coming!
