WARNING: This chapter WAS written on a CAFFEINE high!
Some bits...like their actions and stuff may be a little weird and confusing...just chillax...it should make sense as the story goes by.
Rory sat, locked in a toilet cubicle, she wrote furiously in her folder on her lap. Her and Tristan had cancelled their dance practice plans the previous night because there was a party Tristan was expected at. She had time to finish this essay last night and normally she would have had all her homework completed by the due date, but for some reason last night, there was something bothering her. Nothing really happened, but a certain feeling irked her, making it impossible to concentrate.
The door opened and the clicking of heels followed by annoyingly high-pitched giggling entered, Rory immediately stopped writing, the noise the girls caused, made her to lose her thread of thought,
"So he's like your boyfriend now?" one of the girls asked,
"As of last night," Rory recognised this as Summer's voice and suddenly became a little bit interested in this conversation,
"At Sandra Reave's party?"
"Uh-huh," Summer said happily,
"I totally knew he'd come back to you, even though everyone was saying he had a thing going with that Gilmore chick," another voice said, Rory was now even more curious,
"Well, you know Tristan," Summer sighed dreamily, Rory's mouth foamed an 'o' behind the door, she couldn't deny that she felt hurt that he was with Summer, but since they got back she hadn't given Tristan any signs about her wants and feelings, "We did it in the closet, the bathroom, the library and Sandra's parents' room, and he was like totally won over," Summer continued,
'I bet' Rory thought,
"Wow," the first girl commented, "Gilmore really mustn't of put out at all,"
"Ugh! She's so virginal and it's ridiculous, and even if she did offer it to Tristan he'd only do her for the sake of being her 'first', personally, if I was a guy, I wouldn't touch her with a ten foot pole," Summer said,
"She's kinda pretty," another one pointed out,
"Maybe the night of Tristan's party she was bordering alright, but seriously, she braids her hair and wears her skirt longer than my grandmother," Summer voiced disgustedly, "She's all small-town and should just go back to her barn, she has no one here anyway,"
"What about her friends?"
"Come on, Paris, Maddie and Louise? They are almost as bad as her, everyone knows they only just cut it as Chilton Royalty, Paris because of her parents, Maddie because of her parties and Louise sleeps her way up the list," Rory gritted her teeth and was fisting her blazer, trying to control her temper.
The other girls laughed as Summer bagged Rory and her friends,
"They might as well wear post-its on their foreheads with, farm girl, psychopath, ditz and slut!" Summer laughed. That was it, Rory's cubicle door swung open and Rory innocently walked to the sink and began to wash her hands, her book bag was still in the cubicle,
"Talking about yourself again Summer?"
"How'd you figure?"
"Well the last three are pretty much self-explanatory, but the first one? Isn't your mom that gold digger from Alabama?"
"How'd you-?"
"My mom has a cousin up there, the whole town was happy to see your mom leave all those years ago, I heard they had a massive party,"
"You've been in there this whole time?" Summer glared, Rory nodded, "Oh, so you heard about me and Tristan? Listen, I'm sorry if you were together or something, he didn't say, I didn't ask," she said in an obviously fake tone,
"Cut the crap, we all know you wouldn't give a shit anyway, you want a reaction because you think I'd be pissed about that. Tristan and I aren't together and he's free to screw anyone he wants,"
"He'll only be screwing me,"
"Believe what you want, everyone else can see the reality,"
"You're pissed at me because you're jealous that I've got him, and you don't" Summer said arrogantly,
"Gosh, no wonder you get low grades, I don't care what you do with Tristan, what I do care about is what you're saying about me and my friends. Everyone in this school knows you're a little on the mental side, you're one of the most stupidest people in the world when you have to think past boys, fashion and popularity and you are the biggest slut in the school,"
"No… I'm like a not stupid un-slutty person,"
"Okay you really messed up the whole not being stupid thing in that one sentence, and you do know that when people say 'have you seen the school slut?' the automatic reply is 'who? Summer?'"
"Ugh! You're mom's a slut!" Summer yelled, Rory's eyes immediately ignited in fury,
"You just made the biggest mistake, crossing that line," Rory growled as she stormed towards Summer, who ended up backed into a corner, Rory gripped Summer's shoulders, digging her nails into her skin, "I dare you to say that again," she whispered dangerously.
Summer looked at her fearfully before pushing Rory back,
"Don't touch what you can't afford!"
"Eew, haven't heard that since the fourth grade," Rory made a face, Summer just glared,
"Now, like leave the toilet before you get hurt 'Mary' , you don't know who you're messing with,"
"Oh, but I think I do, and I don't just walk away like that, you know what, I'll give you a free hit," Rory sarcastically smiled and stood against the wall in front of Summer, "C'mon, hit me you whore!" Rory provoked.
Summer made a fist and took a swing, her arm was too far stretch and instead her hand collided hardly with the wall, she immediately retracted her hand and started clutching it, mumbling about the pain it caused her, her two cronies were immediately by her side.
Rory smirked,
"Jeez Sum, you really gotta practice your whole left hook, right hook tactics for next time," Rory made fun of her, pretending to punch air, Summer and her two friends couldn't think of a comeback and all opened and closed their mouth nearly simultaneously, Rory couldn't help but laugh,
"Stick your heads back in the bowl fishies," Rory grabbed her bag and opened the door, she took a look back at Summer, who was now washing her hand under cool water,
"See ya later, 'Princess'" Summer was still unable to piece it all together, all she knew was that she hated being called that and she hated Rory.
Rory was still furious, her eyes blazing with emotion as she exited the bathroom and charged to her locker. Of course her locker refused to open after she spun in the combination, she hit the damn thing as hard as she could, and whaddya know? It easily swung open.
Rory observed the locker door and noticed she had dented it,
"Shit," she cursed,
"Mare, you're not supposed to whack it, just a loving tap will do the trick," Tristan smirked, leaning against the next locker,
"If I'm not supposed to whack my locker, then what am I supposed to whack?" she glared,
"Well… I suppose I could think of a certain activity, involving you whacking me in a kinky kind of way,"
"Dirty," Rory whispered, opening the locker door once again, blocking his face from her view and getting her books out, Tristan walked around and leaned on the locker around her other side,
"You are always leaning against something, can't you stand up by yourself? Are you broken?" Rory teased, "What would you do if you had no walls, no poles, no lockers…none of those things you are always leaning on?"
"I would lean on you," Tristan threw an arm over her shoulder,
"Is this where I'm supposed to sing? Lean on me, when you're not strong, and I'll be your friend, I'll hope you carry on, for it won't be long til I'm gonna need,"
"Somebody to lean on. Just call on me brother, when you need a hand, we all need somebody to lean on," Tristan joined in,
"Okay I can't remember anymore of the words," Rory laughed,
"Me neither,"
Rory's mood had lifted and she had almost forgotten her run-in with Summer earlier, thanks to Tristan.
"Ten minutes left of recess, I gotta go say hi to the girls, catch you later?"
"You know you will," Tristan smirked and stalked off.
Rory, Paris, Louise and Maddie were standing in a circle talking,
"So…Tristan and Summer got back together last night," Louise stated hesitantly,
"I heard," Rory frowned,
"I'm sorry," Maddie smiled sympathetically,
"Why?"
"Well weren't you and Tristan….like you know?"
"Oh no… I don't know what happened, we're friends…I think,"
"I heard Summer's pissed, warnings are being spread through the school, no one is quite sure who she's after," Paris announced, Rory laughed,
"She is such a drama queen, we had a run-in in the toilets and there may have been a little rrrreeeooow," Rory made cat claws with her hands,
"Details," Louise demanded, before Rory could continue, Mike, Austin, Derek and Tristan joined their group, 'later' Rory mouthed to the girls who all nodded in response,
"Did we miss something?" Derek asked, wrapping an arm around Paris's waist, Rory smiled as she saw Paris's face brighten, all the girls shook their head, no,
"Okay, girls are odd," Austin commented, "Gilmore, nice to see you still socialising with us,"
"Isn't it just the most," Rory replied in a girly way, the conversation was once again brought to a halt as Summer and her cronies strutted over. Rory started singing 'don't worry, be happy' in her head, keeping her hands fisted, trying to keep her cool.
Summer immediately lunged herself at Tristan, wrapping his arms around her, Tristan looked at Rory, Paris, Louise and Maddie and rolled his eyes, they giggled a little.
Summer glared at them, before turning and addressing Tristan,
"There's a notice on the bulletin board, Madame Ruel has family problems so the first PA block is now music, she wrote a note asking all her students to keep practicing and working on choreography of their peace, I know I'm not your partner, but I could still help you with late night practices," she purred,
coughSLUTcough
Everyone laughed as Rory fake coughed, Summer glared,
"You better watch your back Gilmore," she sneered, Rory rolled her eyes and turned to her friends,
"I think I'm gonna go home, I'll see you all tomorrow,"
"Yeah, keep running away Gilmore,"
"I'll be back tomorrow, don't you dare doubt it," Rory shrugged, "Oh, and Summer? Remember…" Rory started punching the air again, "Practice!" Rory made to leave then turned back to Tristan,
"And Tristan? Just a bit of advice, you might want to put your bitch on a leash, you should consider buying her a muzzle while you're at it," everyone who had watched the display stared as Rory casually walk out of Chilton. The gossip mills started spinning soon after. Tristan was left confused. The three girls made a silent pack to get their details tomorrow. The other three boys were quite amused. Summer and her cronies thought they had one.
Rory sped all the way back to her home in Stars Hollow, ignoring all road laws as she drove. Pulling up to her house she noted the familiar SUV in her driveway. Stepping out of her car, she spent a few moments staring at the SUV in wonder, 'no way, no fucking way!'.
Rory ran through her front door,
"Someone's home earlier than what they should be?" an accent commented.
Rory spun towards the living room where she found Finn, Collin, Logan and Stephanie all dressed in Chilton uniform,
"Gonna come greet your new favourite Chiltonites anytime soon Ace?"
Rory was unable to speak, her face was beginning to hurt from the big smile stuck on her face, she squealed in excitement before tackling Logan onto the couch in a big hug then squeezing the life out each of them.
