Exposed

Rory sighed as she prepared to walk into Chilton; it had been fourth months of absolute hell. Her classmates had been relentlessly on her case for her 'lying' about Tristan. The only upside was, now that she was four months pregnant and starting to show, they couldn't say she was lying about the pregnancy anymore. However she knew they would find some way to twist it around, or Tristan would come up with some lie to make things even worse. Her only spark of hope came from a phone call she had received from Paris the previous night. Without really knowing why she had kept the results of the paternity test and Paris had asked her to bring it with her. As she walked through the corridors she could hear the whispering and knew they were forming their own theories. She could only hope that whatever Paris had planned was good. She was heading straight to the classroom Paris had told her to go to, she caught sight of Tristan in her peripheral vision, he was glaring at her and she knew he was going to try and confront her, but she ignored him and walked on. After losing him in the crowd she arrived at the classroom and realized it was open, she walked inside and found Paris, Madeline and Louise waiting for her.

Paris and her friends had been talking quietly amongst themselves but stopped when Rory came in. they stood up and Rory noticed their serious expressions.

She shifted uncomfortably and asked, "Were you…able to find anything?"

Paris sighed, "It wasn't easy, and I'm sorry it took so long but…We were able to track down somebody who had video of that night."

Louise interrupted "Well, a lot of people did but this one had video of that particular part of the night."

Paris nodded, "It's surprisingly good quality for a camera phone but it should prove almost everything Tristan has said about this is a lie." Rory was confused, "Almost?"

"It proves everything but the fact he's the Father, especially since you admitted to having sex with your boyfriend before the incident." Paris explained, "That's why I asked you to bring that paternity test."

Rory smiled and held it out, Paris took it, "Great, okay, we're gonna use all of this to expose him for the liar he is, just, try to hold on until lunch, we need to get as big an audience as possible for this to work."

Rory nodded and then asked, "Paris, I don't get it; you've hated me since day one, what made you change your mind about me?"

Paris sighed and shrugged, "Two things actually, like I said before, I know you're not lying and it's just wrong what's happening too you. Besides, Tristan deserves to suffer for what he's done. You're not the only person he's hurt."

With that Paris and her group left, leaving Rory to contemplate what had just been said and realize, to her horror, what Paris meant.

By lunch time Rory was a nervous wreck. Tristan had cornered her and began threatening her. More and more rumours had begun to circulate, but she persevered. Finally, it was time; just about every student in Chilton was in the lunch hall. Rory noticed that Paris and her crew had rigged up a computer to show the video on the screen behind them and also got their hands on a microphone that would get everyone's attention.

"May I have your attention please!" Paris called out into the microphone, causing all heads in the lunch hall to turn towards them, "We have something important to show you, contrary to what you believe, the real liar in this little drama happening in school at the moment, is in fact Tristan. If you'd kindly direct your attention to the screen, we will prove it."

There were murmurs of incredulity and even a few of shock, some unable to comprehend that Paris Geller would help Rory Gilmore. The video then showed Rory sitting on her own, looking lost, at the party, Tristan was nearby. The person with the camera was obviously distracted by something but left the camera focused in Rory's direction. Enough for everyone to see Tristan drop something into Rory's drink. The camera showed scenes from the party as the person moved around and then when it found Rory again she was showing several obvious signs of being drugged and Tristan was half carrying, half dragging her away from the main room. There was no footage of the actual act taking place but Tristan's intent was clear on his face and with Rory being drugged it was obvious she would be anything but a willing participant. There were gasps and more murmurs as well as an angry shout from Tristan. But before he could do anything the video faded and was replaced with an enhanced image of the paternity test.

"As you can see from this, Rory's boyfriend, the only guy she's willingly had sex with, is not the Father of the baby, which leads to the logical conclusion that Tristan is!"

"You bitch, how dare you!" Tristan yelled out, "How dare you ruin me like this!"

Before anything could happen Headmaster Charleston's voice came over the PA.

"Tristan DuGrey; Paris Geller, Madeline Lynn, Louise Grant, Rory Gilmore. All of you report to my office at once."

Rory swallowed nervously and joined Paris and her crew as they walked to the Headmaster's office, Tristan walked ahead of the, angry and constantly shooting back glares at them.

"I'm sorry," Rory muttered, but Paris shook her head, "Totally worth it, trust me."

They arrived at the Headmaster's office and walked inside.

Headmaster Charleston looked at them severely as they walked in and ordered them to sit down, gesturing at the chairs in front of his desk, they did so. First he turned to Tristan.

"I hope you realize the seriousness of the situation," He said sternly, "Your actions have caused…"

"My actions, what about them, look what they did…"

"Do not interrupt me when I'm speaking," Charleston cut across him before continuing. "As I said, your actions have caused great distress and you have committed a very serious offence."

Tristan shook his head, "They're lying, she wanted to, I never…"

"Enough, I saw the video myself and have called the police, they will be wanting to question you and have already claimed the video as evidence. Regardless of the police decision I am here to tell you right now that you are no longer welcome here and even if the police let you go you are expelled from Chilton. Now, leave the office, the police are waiting for you."

Tristan wanted to protest but saw that it was hopeless; instead he turned and stalked out of the room, but stopped when Rory spoke up.

"He should be charged with two counts of rape, I'm not the only one. I'm the only one who ended up pregnant because of it but, I'm not the only one he raped."

By this point the police had entered the office and detained Tristan so he couldn't try to stop her but they took interest in this, as did Charleston.

"A rather serious allegation Miss Gilmore, do you know the other victim?" He asked, Paris sighed and admitted the truth, "It was me."

Everyone except for Rory and Tristan stared at Paris in surprise, but finally Charleston recovered and spoke.

"Very well, I'm sure the police will want to talk to you Miss Gellar but, I'd like to finish things up here first."

The officers nodded and escorted Tristan from the room.

Charleston then turned to Pairs and her friends.

"I hope you are aware that your behaviour is unacceptable, especially here in Chilton." He spoke severely and when Louise was about to interrupt he cut across her, "Regardless of circumstances. Therefore I must…congratulate you on your initiative. However some punishment must be giving so, all three of you are suspended until the end of the week and since it is Wednesday, it's not that long."

The trio smiled and the Headmaster dismissed them, Paris went to talk to the police before joining her friends and heading home. Due to circumstances and out of sympathy for her condition Headmaster Charleston revealed he only called Rory to his office to show Tristan would be punished for his actions and to offer her a chance to go home early and recuperate. She agreed and left the office, heading for her locker. As she walked many of the students apologized to her, some directly, others through their expressions. She didn't mind, she was just happy the truth had come out. She put her books back in her locker and left the school, she called Dean and told him what had happened and asked him to pick her up. He was there within ten minutes and began to drive her home. She leaned back in the seat and relaxed as best she could. It was over, her nightmare at school was over, now she could focus on what really mattered, having this baby and being the best Mother possible.
