Rory stepped out of her limo that had brought her back to her house, her Hartford home now, where she lived with Lorelai and Max.

Max had said that it was to long of a commute to Chilton each morning during the school year for them to live, so he had moved them out of the Stars Hollow house to a Hartford one. A bigger Hartford house.

Rory looked up at her house and sighed. 'Home sweet home.' She thought sadly. She got out leaving for the driver to bring her bags into the house where the maids would bring it up to her room.

She opened the front door and saw Lorelai waiting for her, her eyes widened slightly at the sight of Rory's appearance.

"Welcome home." She said stiffly.

"Thanks." Rory said shortly, her face expressionless.

"Rory do-

"I'm tired, I'm gonna go up to my room." Rory said, interrupting her and walking upstairs.

"You want to get a cup of coffee at Luke's with me?" Lorelai finished quietly after Rory had left the room.

Rory plopped down on her bed when she reached her room and looked around. She was bored already. Just as she finished that thought, her cell phone went.

"Hello?"

"Love! You home yet?" Finn's cheerful voice came through the phone, causing her to immediately smile.

"Yup, you?"

"I'm in Hartford, haven't been home yet, though. I'm actually I'm at Chilton."

"Finn, you are aware school starts tomorrow, not today, right?" Rory teased.

"So that's why the doors won't open. Seriously, some of us are just hanging around, care to join?"

"I'll be there in a couple minutes." Rory said, hanging up and quickly getting dressed and hurrying down the stairs to her car.

Rory stepped out of her car at the Chilton parking lot where all the other cars were. There were a group of people just hanging around the cars talking. They ended up in places like parking lots when no one could decide who's house to hang out at.

Rory hugged Summer immediately, talking quickly and animatedly.

"Rory!" Finn called, talking with another group of people.

"What?" She called back.

"Tell this guy that I'm the best you've ever had, he's saying he was better." Finn told her.

"Finn, you suck in bed." Rory teased, causing the guys around them to start laughing.

"Oh okay, Love. You're gonna get it." Finn said before chasing after her.

"Summer, help me!" Rory screamed, running behind her, putting Summer between her and Finn.

"No way in hell am I getting between you two." Summer said, pulling at of Rory's grasp.

"Traitor! Austin! Save me! You're big and strong, you can beat Finn up!" Rory yelled running behind him. "Haha Finn! I've got Austin!" Rory taunted Finn who was smirking and advancing them.

"Sorry Ror, Finn can kick my ass any day." Austin told her, stepping aside.

Rory was smiling innocently at Finn who was standing right in front of her, she grabbed the person nearest of her and used him to hide behind. Rory looked up at the person she had grabbed.

"Tristan? Stay like that." Rory told Tristan, who looked at her shocked.

"Rory, you are aware that I can still see you behind him, and can still grab you." Finn told her.

"Shit, nice to have you back, Tristan!" She said quickly before running away. Finn quickly caught her and pinned up against a car, tickling her.

"Say it." Finn demanded.

"Say what?" She smirked, between laughs.

"Say it!"

"Finn's the best I've ever had."

"Louder."

"Finn's the best I've ever had!" She yelled, causing Finn to stop tickling her and smirk triumphantly. "God, I know, you didn't have to scream it." He teased, causing a glare from Rory.

"Okay, I'm tired. Who's got the drinks?" Finn asked loudly, grabbing two beers from a nearby person and handing one to Rory, they held up their bottles to each other, calling a truce, and took a sip.

"God, you two are more theatrical than a pair of monkeys." Summer rolled her eyes.

"Hey, I resent that, I do not resemble a monkey, Finn does smell though." Rory smirked, causing her to get a glare from Finn. "Aw Finny, you know I love you." She told him, kissing him quickly and skipping off to talk to Summer.

"You'll be the death of me, Gilmore!" Finn called after her, rolling his eyes and talking to his friends.

"So, Tristan. You off on parole or something?" Finn joked.

"No, I'm back for senior. God forbid I graduate anywhere else than Chilton." Tristan told him, rolling his eyes. "What's up with you and Rory." Tristan asked casually, looking over at where Rory and Summer were drinking and talking.

"Oh shit, that's right. Finn, you slept with Tristan's Mary." Austin informed Finn, smirking.

"It happens. No hard feelings, right?" Finn asked Tristan.

"No. Not at all." Tristan said uneasily.

"So...the prodigal son returns." Rory said, walking up to Tristan later that night, he was leaning up against his car, debating whether or not to go home.

"What's up, Mary?" Tristan asked her.

"Didn't get the memo, I see? I'm not a Mary."

"So I've heard...Mary."

"I give up, fulfill your weird school girl fantasies by calling me Mary." Rory teased.

"Want one?" Rory asked, holding out the unopened beer she had in her hand.

"No thanks, I've got to drive." He declined.

"We all live like, two blocks away, Tristan. I think you'll be fine with a couple beers."

"We? Don't you live in Stars Hollow?" He asked.

"No." She said quickly, finishing the rest of her beer and handing it and the unopened bottle to Tristan.

"Rory, you ready to go?" Some guy asked, coming up to her.

"Sorry Alex, I'm going home with Finn tonight," Rory apologized in a fake voice.

"It's Ethan."

"Oops, Ethan, maybe some other time, okay? Bye." She said off hand, barely paying to much attention to him.

"Hey Finn!" Rory yelled over the crowd.

"Yes darling?" He said in a 'charmingly', laughing.

"Take me to bed, or lose me forever!" Rory yelled dramatically, quoting Meg Ryan in Top Gun.

"Show me the way home, honey." He yelled back, catching on, walking through the crowd to her. "Ah, Dugrey, good to have you back. I'll see you tomorrow, right?" He put an arm around Rory's shoulder and started leading her to their cars, not waiting for an answer from Tristan.

Rory was late to the first day of her senior year. Late! Definitely not what she wanted to be on her first day of her Senior year. First day of her last year of Chilton. It was all Finn's fault! He made her sleep in! She wasn't technically late, but she had wanted to get to Chilton earlier than she was.

Rory hurried into Chilton doors, cursing Finn the whole way, she went to her locker, trying to open it with her coffee and backpack falling off her shoulder, not the easiest thing in the world to do.

"Having trouble there?" Finn asked, walking over to her, smirking.

"Finn! I swear to god, stay away from me or I might kill you!" Rory yelled causing Finn to smirk even more and laugh. Rory groaned, frustrated, not even looking up at him.

"Morgan, you might want to watch out, Gilmore might kill you!" Austin called to Finn a couple lockers away from them, laughing with the rest of the guys.

"She wouldn't kill me, she loves me too much!" Finn told him, walking back to Austin, saying it loud enough so Rory could hear.

"Don't be too sure of that!" Rory responded.

"Please Love, you wouldn't find someone who could replace me." Finn smirked triumphantly.

"Hah! You and I both know that I could find someone to replace you." Rory told him a-matter-a-factually, walking over the group.

"Oh, really? And who would that be?" Finn asked.

"Austin." Rory said smugly.

"Lay of my guy, bitch." Summer said possessively, although anyone who knew the two of them would know that they were just kidding.

"Please, Summer, you know that Austin thinks I'm hot and not you." Rory played along.

"Austin, do you think that Rory is hot?" Summer asked Austin, who's eyes widened, not knowing what to say.

"Well, R-...She...Sum-...No. Summer, you're the only girl I find attractive." Austin finally choked out.

"You don't think I'm pretty?" Rory asked in a fake hurt voice.

"No! I mean. God, you two are evil!" Summer and Rory smirked evilly at each other.

"Fine, Austin is out, but I could replace you with any guy here." Rory told Finn smugly.

"No one would cross me, Rory." Finn stated.

"Tristan would!" Rory said Tristan, who looked like a deer caught in headlights.

"I was friends with Tristan before you were even at Chilton." Finn argued.

"Yes, but he has wanted to sleep with me since the day I met him."

"You knew him?" Finn asked confused.

"Finn I told you that last night." Austin rolled his eyes, telling him.

"Right. I knew that. It doesn't matter. Love, I am irreplaceable, I bet you can't find anyone to replace me." Finn challenged.

"Is that a challenge?"

"It sounded like one, didn't it?"

"Fine. I bet by the end of today I can find someone to replace you."

"And if I win?"

"And if you win, which you won't, I will do anything you want." Rory told him.

"Anything?"

"Thats what I said."

"Love, I can get you to do anything I want without having to win a bet." Finn said haughtily, receiving a smack from Austin, Summer, and Rory at the same time. "Ouch!"

"You deserve it. What do I get when I win?" Rory asked.

"Don't you mean if?"

"No."

"If you win, I will..." He trailed off, whispering the rest of it in Rory's ear, causing Rory to smirk.

"Deal."

"Deal."

"Dugrey, see you at Lunch." Rory winked at him, walking off as the bell rang.

Tristan had been talking to Shawn, who was standing with Austin and a couple of other guys and had watched the whole scene.

"God, first day back Dugrey and you've got in the middle of Finn and Rory. Have fun with that." Austin patted a shocked Tristan's shoulder and walked off with the rest of the guys to their classes.

'What had just happened?' Tristan wondered confused.

A/N: LOOK HOW LONG! Hehe, I was gonna end it before the first day back, but was on a roll so I decided to keep on going. I love love love this story. Its so much fun to write.

I might be busy in the coming week or two. One of my teachers recommended me to write a review for the play 'As You Like It' and this review will be going out to every family who has a kid in my school, which is a lot. It is an amazing opportunity, and will look great on my College Applications.

Plus, I just found out that I got into all Honors classes except I got Regents Science. Which is kinda a good thing because I REALLY suck at science. I hate it.

So, it's been really busy lately. Sorry for the delays with all my stories!

Hope you enjoyed and please please review, I want to know what people think!
