Welcome to
The Chilton's Seniors Drama Club
Chapter 3: Louise's Kings
and Queens
- - - - - - - - -
Rory walked out of the pool house to get a bit of fresh air, she walked over to the pool and took off her shoes to put her feet into the warm water. She was soon joined by Tristan who lighted a cigarette; Rory made a disgusted face, "That thing is going to kill you."
Tristan placed his feet in the water also and leaned backward on his elbow, "That or something else." He exhaled smoke out of his mouth, "Do you think that all the scripts are going to pair us together?"
Rory shrugged, "I don't know what they see in us. We barely know each other and all we do is argue."
Tristan chuckled, "That's because they can sense the UST between us."
She blinked, "The what?"
He grinned, it was too easy, "The Unresolved Sexual Tension."
The dark haired girl choked, "In your dreams maybe."
Tristan leaned closer to her, "We should try and kiss, maybe it would tell us if there are sparks between us or not. Although I'm certain that you won't be able to resist me after."
She got up very fast and turned back to the pool house muttering, "I don't particularly like kissing ashtrays."
Duncan who was coming out to get them so that they could continue the script reading choked between his laughter, "Nice one Gilmore!"

Paris glanced at her watch, ten thirty and only one script done, "Who is next?"
Louise raised her hand, "I'll read mine." She took out a stack of neatly typed sheet and cleared her throat,
Kings and Queens of Chilton
Summer was over and the senior year was finally there. Louise Grant smiled with satisfaction as she watched the school from the parking lot, HER school. Because this year, she was going to rule the Chilton, she had been given over the reign of the queen title at the end of the last school year, when the departing seniors chose their follower for their legacies. She had to carefully select three princesses to follow her. The qualities researched were beauty and seduction.
Paris laughed out loud, "Rule the school?"
Rory shrugged her shoulders, "At least, she probably didn't pair me up with Tristan."
Tristan turned to face Rory, looking offended, "You wound me."
Henry looked at Duncan, "Where do you think we will fit into that?"
Louise sighed, clearly exasperated, "Are you interested in listening or not?"
Paris blinked, "Not."
Madeline took Louise's hand and encouraged her, "Go on, ignore them."
She came out of her brand new pink Ferrari convertible and caressed it as she closed the driver's door softly, grinning at the prospect of wild nights in the back seat. She heard a giggle and saw Madeline in the courtyard smiling at Duncan seductively. She fastened her pace, not liking one of her selections for a princess stepping into her territory because from today, Duncan was hers. He had been named King at the same party and by having that title; they had to abide to the rules… HE WAS HERS and HERS ONLY.
Tristan scratched his head, "How can there be a backseat in a Ferrari?"
Henry shook his head, "They don't make pink Ferraris either."
Louise looked stunned, "It has to have a backseat."
Duncan took over, "The engine is in the back, and it's a sports car which means there's only two seats."
Louise brushed them off, "Whatever, we could always change the type of car later on." She resumed her reading proudly.
She ignored Madeline who was flirting outrageously and grabbed Duncan by the neck to kiss him. "You've just met your Queen." She saw him quirk an eyebrow questioningly, "And you know what they say, behind every great man there is a Lady."
Duncan held Louise shoulders, "Then shall we go have a quickie in the back seat of that new car of yours?"
Duncan repeated, "Again… no backseat!"
Louise batted her eyes at him, "You should consider yourself lucky I made you King, if my story line gets picked, we'll get to make-out a lot."
Paris groaned and Madeline squeaked excitingly, "Who will be my make-out partner?"
Tristan placed his left arms around Rory's shoulder, "I get the feeling we are going to be make-out buddies."
Rory dislodged his arm, "I'm so not voting for that story."
Brad begged, "Please, don't match me with Paris."
Louise sent him an evil glare and continued,
Louise finally acknowledged Madeline and whispered seductively, "Not now, and you know, a Queen needs roses petals for her first time."
Madeline shook her head in confusion, "But Louise, it wouldn't be your first time!" Duncan chuckled, "And I know that for a fact," Louise sent warning glares at Madeline but she remained oblivious to the hints, "Remember, sophomore year? At my party in the pool house? We had a steamy foursome?"
Madeline squeaked, "Louise! You weren't supposed to tell!"
Paris grabbed her head in her hands and muttered, "Somebody kill me now."
Louise sighed, "Maddy, if you hadn't told everyone right now, no one would have known!" She showed the pages she was reading and separated her syllable to be certain she was understood. "This is a PI…ECE of FIC…TION!"
Madeline blushed, "Oh, damn it then."
Henry spoke quietly, "I kind of knew about that."
Both Madeline and Louise gasped and yelled, "What?"
Paris kept on muttering, "I'm going to wake up from this nightmare any minute now."
Duncan and Tristan exchanged looks that said a lot while Henry tried to explain himself, "I was looking for a quiet place to bring the girl I had met." He pointed at Tristan and Rory, "And I caught them both in a room talking quietly." Tristan sent him a warning glare as Rory blushed, "then I decided to go to the pool house with…"
Rory who finally had registered everything that had been said, "You wanted to bring Lane to the pool house?" She shivered, "She thought you were different!"
Henry didn't know what else to do, "Well, you ended up kissing someone you always claimed to dislike!"
Paris came out of her trance surprised, "You kissed Tristan?"
Brad from his position on the floor between two sofas watched curiously not understanding anything that was said. "Can we just go on and you can all wash your dirty clothes together when I'm not here?"
Paris glared at him, "Shut up."
Brad hid between the sofas while Duncan spoke, "I think it's a first but Braddy here might have a point." Than he glanced at his watch, "Plus it's only the second script and I have a date tonight."
Louise smiled seductively, "Me too." It's only then she finally realized the tension in the room. "Ok, I'll just read than maybe we can order a pizza or something?"
Louise shook her head in annoyance, "I was talking about my first time as a QUEEN." Madeline gasped in shock but Louise grabbed her and made her royal exit, "We've got work to do; we've got to find two other princesses."
Madeline squeaked excitingly, "I'm the first princess?"
They sat on a bench to observe the wandering students, "In the deal, we have to make a complete make-over on one of the princess."
Madeline frowned, "In looks or personality?"
Louise sighed as she saw a silver Porsche drive in the parking lot, "Why did Tristan have to come back only now? I'm sure he would have been made King and would have been mine all year long."
The raven haired girl shook her head, "What are you talking about?"
The queen hiked her skirt up a little to show off more legs, "Didn't you know that two girls out of three that he has bedded said he has way too much stamina?" Her princess blushed, "and two even told me that they couldn't walk after that for three whole days?"
Tristan who had been drinking from a bottle of water, choked, "What?"
Duncan laughed knowing how ridiculous the concept was and that Louise was nice but there was no way she was creative enough to invent that, "Who told you that?"
Madeline asked, "Jealous?"
Tristan kept on coughing and Rory distractedly tapped his back, Louise blurted out, "Summer, Jodie and Rachel."
Tristan began tapping his chest until the water finally came out. "That is rubbish! I never bedded Summer, Rachel is only frustrated I never laid eyes on her and… Jodie… well, let's just say she was still riding me long after I was asleep."
Paris shook her head, "Gross!"
Brad asked innocently, "Riding what?"
Everyone started to laugh and Madeline watched him oddly. Louise stated, "Okay, fun's over. Let's go back to business."
Madeline grinned, "I'm sure Duncan will make him a prince." She saw Paris coming their way, "Are you going to… tag Paris as a princess?"
Louise shivered, "I don't know, she could be good looking if she tried a bit, but personality wise, I'm not sure it's a challenge I'm up to."
Paris blanched, "What do you mean if I tried?" Then when there was no answer, "What about my personality?"
Madeline looked kindly at Brad, "I'm sure Brad could tell you that you are very scary."
Rory jumped in before it could get ugly, "We should really finish this story."
Paris sat beside them and asked, "What's too challenging for you Louise?"
Madeline froze but as she saw Rory Gilmore come out of the bus with four over filled backpacks, she tried to save her friend, "Making Rory Gilmore a real party trooper and do a complete make-over on her."
"How would I be able to carry four overweight backpacks?"
Louise shrugged her off, "It was just to intensify your bookwormish ways."
Rory was getting offend as she stood up, "I do know how to party and have fun!"
Paris chimed in, "She does have a point there. Getting wild on a week-end alone at home is doing laundry in your pajamas and then ending the night watching movies while eating junk food, that is the way to have fun."
Rory blinked, "And I will remind you that you were the one busting my rare alone time to STUDY!"
Paris stood up in front of Rory and they glared at each other, Brad asked timidly, "Can someone break their staring contest? It's getting chilly."
Tristan took Rory's hand to force her to sit back down and Paris exclaimed, "I won!"
Louise not understanding continued her reading.
Louise relaxed and smiled gratefully at Madeline then groaned as Paris talked, "Of course it will be a challenge, but nothing we can't do between the three of us. Do you know who Duncan chose as his princes?"
Rory got to them and asked, "Aren't you all excited? Last year of high school? So many interesting classes!" They followed her lead and went inside the school for their first class of the year.

The queen and her princesses watched Rory Gilmore walk over to the bus stop and they all nodded… they knew what they had to do. Paris stormed after Rory and cornered her to make sure she would miss her bus, "Are you going to try and be a senior princess?"
Rory laughed bitterly, "Yeah, like they would ever admit a bookworm in their group."
Paris stood up straight and proudly, "Actually, I'm a princess."
Rory, her eyes misty with tears, whispered, "I guess you are the challenge then right?"
Rory shook her head, "again with the water flow! Is that how you really see me?"
Louise bit her bottom lip, "Do you really want to know?"
Rory sighed, "Just go on. It's getting frustrating."
Paris stormed out to the parking lot in fury, wondering if she was in fact the challenge.
- - - - - - -
Rory sat at the bus stop, thanks to Paris, she missed her bus and had to wait over forty-five minutes to get the next one. She was furious, she had shown Paris that not being a social outcast hurt her, she had hoped to get picked up for this. To show everyone that if she wanted to, she could be witty and popular. Now her chances with Tristan were completely gone, it would have been her chance to make him fall in love with her, as the princes and princesses could only date each other for the whole year.
Louise drove up to Rory, "Want a lift?"
Rory blinked her tears away, "Why?"
The queen simply smiled and said, "Bonding session with my princesses at my house."
Rory jumped into the car without opening the door, "Really, you are making me a princess?"
Louise frowned, "With a little fixing up, yes."
- - - - - - -
Second day of senior year, Louise sat in the backseat of her two day old pink Ferrari convertible with Madeline by her side, Rory driving and Paris beside her. She smiled proudly at her court, they were perfect. She had been a little socked at how easy it had been to cut off 5 inches of Paris skirt uniform and how Rory hadn't argued when they had died her hair black with the tip of it a dark blue to bring out her eyes.
Brad interrupted, "That is so out of date! Louise, do you have any fashion sense?"
Louise glared, "What do you mean?"
The shy guy face became illuminated, something that shocked everyone in the room, "The tip of the hair with a flashing neon color is so last year. This year, to make something fashionable, you would have to die the tip two shades lighter. It's so much more classy and natural."
Duncan tapped Brad's back, "Man, you are so gay!"
Paris, "Moving on, I'm not interested in discussing our little reject's sexuality."
As for Paris, they had shortened her hair to shoulder length with silver blonde streaks. Her princesses were perfect, ready to rule the school along side with her. They were supposed to meet the king and princes five minutes ago, so that the princes could choose their bed partner for the year.
"Bed partner?" Madeline shivered, "You mean same bed partner for the WHOLE year?"
Paris cringed, "I think, I'll have to rethink that part."
Duncan was waiting expectantly, he only hoped that Louise had convinced Rory to be part of her court, the only reason Tristan had accepted a prince title was with the promise that little Mary was in the court. But Tristan had been skeptical, but agreed anyway.
They saw the pink Ferrari convertible drive up and parked right beside his own black Ferrari convertible and Tristan breathed out in relief as his saw Rory climb out of the car, her skirt barely covering her underwear, the white blouse unbuttoned just enough to show the lace of her metallic blue bra, "I get first choice!"
Duncan in relief agreed as he watched with his mouth wide open Louise walking over to him, her long legs that were going on forever.
TO BE CONTINUED IF VOTED FOR THE BEST SCREEN PLAY
Rory stood up and ran to the kitchen, "I vote it out!"
Paris raised her hand, "I second that."
Duncan raised his hand, "I vote it in."
Henry shook his head laughing, "You're only doing that to make sure you'll get lucky with her on your date tonight."
Both Duncan and Louise gasped in shock, "How did you know?"
The clock chimed twelve times and a maid came inside the pool house with a food carrier.
