"Tristan!?" Rory cried as she stood in the middle of the hallway stunned.

Tristan turned his head to see who was calling his name only to come eye to eye with the only person he actually cared about.

"Rory" Tristan said softly, his eyes wide.

"You bastard!" Rory cried as she turned and walked away.

"Don't worry about her Tris, she was too uptight anyways" Summer cooed as she tried to pull him closer.

"Did you ever think Summer that maybe others aren't really uptight, but that you're just too loose?!" Tristan asked as she walked away, his emotions haywire.

At lunch time Riley looked everywhere for his sister, only to find her sitting behind a set of stairs, tears flowing freely.

"Rory? What's wrong?!" Riley asked as she rushed over to her. Sitting down next to her he took her in his arms as she continued to cry.

"Tristan...Summer..."Those were the only words she could force out, but they were enough for Riley.

Once school was over Riley and Rory walked out to their car and were about to drive away when Tristan came running up to them and stood in front of the car.

"Wait!" Tristan cried.

"Move Tristan, NOW!" Riley yelled, his eyes blazing with anger.

"Rory, I didn't mean to, I wasn't thinking!" Tristan cried.

Rory just turned her head as the tears began to flow.

"If you ever come near her or talk to her again I will have you wishing you never had! Don't think I'm joking either Tristan, you went too far this time!" Riley yelled as he drove off.

"Honey, I know it hurts, but you have to go to school babe! Don't let him take everything away from you, he doesn't deserve that power" Lorelei stated the next morning as she sat on the edge of her daughter's bed stroking her back.

"I can't" Rory responded through the tears.

"You can, and you will. Come on babe, don't let him do this to you. Besides, you'll have Riley there with you, you'll be fine." Lorelei said.

An hour later Riley and Rory walked into the school, immediately they saw Tristan standing at Rory's locker.

"Move Tristan" Riley stated standing in front of his sister.

"Riley, I need to talk to Rory" Tristan responded annoyed.

"Talk" Rory stated stiffly as she placed a hand on her brother's arm and moved him away gently.
