Here's Chapter 6. Hope you like it. It too has a lot of drama.
"Louise, please take Amber and go out to the car." Rory whispered.
"No! I'm staying with you." She whispered back.
Rory turned around and pleaded. "Please Louise, take the rest of the girls with you I need to do this alone."
"You shouldn't have to do this alone" She argued.
"But I feel like I need to. Take the girls, and make the guys go over there." She pointed to a spot about thirty feet away. "They will fill you in, and I will be able to do this by myself."
"Ok, if you're sure." She nodded reluctantly.
"I'm sure." Rory replied.
Louise did as told, handed Amber to Paris and told her and Madeline to go to the car. She then grabbed Logan and the boys to distance them.
"Do not interfere!" She told them before walking off.
Rory watched as her friends did what she wanted. Then she turned back to Tristan, he looked ready to blow.
"Who was that?" he asked bluntly.
She wasn't going to play dumb, but that didn't mean it made it any easier. "Amber. She's my daughter." She managed to get out slowly.
"How could you keep this from me? Rory how could you!" He started out. "Why? Why would you throw your life away! Why in the world did you have sex and throw your life away, on a mistake! You ruined your life, and you don't even care!" He was so angry with her for keeping this from him. He stormed off, leaving Rory to break down in tears. As soon as he left, the guys walked over. Logan picked up Rory and Finn yelled to the silent crowd.
"What are you staring at?" He shouted.
They quickly dispersed, and started to bustle around. They walked out to the cars, and Finn filled the girls in.
"I'm so sorry!" Madeline told her as Louise pulled out of the parking lot.
"Don't be" Rory told her.
"Why not?" She asked, not getting it.
"Because you shouldn't be sorry, you have nothing to be sorry about." Rory explained.
Madeline nodded.
"How are you feeling?" Louise asked.
"I'm mad. Mad at myself for keeping it from him. Mad at him for calling Amber a mistake, and sad that I lost my chance with him." Rory listed.
"You didn't lose your chance." Louise reassured.
"Twistan." Amber spoke.
"Oh My God!" Madeline shrieked.
"Her first word." Rory chuckled to herself.
"How does she know who Tristan is?" Paris asked, the question that was on everyone's mind.
"I talk about him all the time. I even showed her a picture, but I guess seeing him made it all click for her I guess." Rory said sadly, as she shrugged.
"Are you upset that her first word was Tristan?" Louise asked sensitively.
"No not really, I'm happy she said something, but right now the circumstances are kind of rocky about Tristan. So hearing her say it as her first word is kinda heartbreaking but still, it's great that she said her first word! I guess it's bittersweet." She said, with a rueful smile, describing what she felt.
"I understand." Louise replied.
"Well what do we do now?" Paris asked.
"Get drunk!" Louise yelled.
"When we get home, I'd be happy to Louise, but not right now!" Rory laughed, her foul mood lifting a bit.
They made it home in record time. Finn drove as fast as he could when he heard that they were going to have a drink fest at home.
Once they arrived home, they gave Amber to Lorelei for the night. After explaining what had happened, she had agreed to let Rory get drunk.
They walked into the kitchen and picked up the bottles and then headed up to Finn's room. Trust Finn to have a pullout bar.
They set down the juices and alcohol and Finn went behind the counter.
"What do you want?" He asked Rory.
"Why not have it all. We'll have a sampling of everything." She laughed, gesturing grandly towards all the alcohol.
"That sounds bloody great!" Finn beamed. "I've taught you well!"
"Just so I can get it all, make one of each and we'll all share it.
That way we can get a little bit of a ton of drinks!" Rory specified.
"Ok! Let's start with a Martini, dry with a twist." Rory ordered up.
Finn fixed it up and handed it to her. She took a sip and passed it on.
When it got to Finn he shook his head.
"What's this? Finn denying alcohol? The world must be coming to an end!" Colin joked.
"No it's not that. It's just I like my alcohol straight up!" he clarified, before he lifted up the vodka bottle and a shot glass.
They laughed. Once they calmed down, Rory ordered her next poison of choice.
"Screwdriver" Rory picked out.
"Coming right up!" And Finn got to work. They passed it around.
"Bloody Mary"
"Vodka Tonic"
"Cosmo"
"Sex on the Beach"
"Daiquiri"
"Mai Tai"
"Manhattan"
"Margarita"
"Sidecar"
"Long Island Ice Tea"
"Pina Coloda"
"Scotch on the Rocks"
"And one Foster for each of us!" She slurred.
By the time they were done they were drunk. Very, Very, drunk.
They knew they would have hangovers so they went up to sleep. Lorelei had placed a bottle of water, two cups of coffee and aspirin on their nightstands waiting for them when they woke up.
Rory woke up and yelled, "Thank God!" when she saw the gifts.
When she yelled, she woke everyone else up who had a similar exclamation of praise.
They prepared for school, knowing it would be very long day.
Rory placed the coffee on the table and counted down once more, and just as expected Lorelei grabbed it and ran out.
Rory and the group went out to the cars. Today they picked the Lexus and the Beamer.
Rory stepped out of the car when they got there. She slipped on her sunglasses and led her friends into Chilton. She marched up to her locker and she didn't see Tristan. She frowned but quickly hid it. Her friends noticed though.
She acted as though nothing was wrong all week. She ignored Tristan, as did the rest of her friends and on Friday Tristan had had enough.
He caught Logan and Louise as all of them were leaving.
"Why the hell are all of you ignoring me?" He asked annoyed.
"You don't get it?" Louise asked snottily.
"Why are all of you ignoring me, when she's the one who did something wrong?" He repeated more specific this time.
"She may have done something wrong, by keeping it from you. Heck we continually lectured her on what she did wrong! But being a friend, is accepting someone as they are. Faults and all. And standing by them no matter what happens." Louise explained, with an attitude.
"Plus, what you said to her hurt her. We don't speak to people who hurt Rory. Especially when they don't know what the hell they're talking about! You really shouldn't jump to conclusions when you don't know the whole story!" Logan retorted and with that he and Louise walked off.
Tristan stood there dumbfounded. 'Not the whole story?' He thought.
That's the update. More drama right? Well hope you liked it.
