two blondes and a brunette

Gym?

"Yup. High School." Colin said.

"High school was..." Tristan started, and stopped to tilt his head, pursing his lips. "It was something." he said with a light chuckle and the group laughed.

"Isn't it always?" Steph said.

"Hmm." Logan said.

"Ok so, what was Reporter Girl like?" Colin asked, wiggling his eyebrows.

"Mary was..." Tristan laughed. " she was the nerd, valedictorian from what I hear, she always had her nose in a book, always handed in her assignments on time, and could somehow survive the wrath of Paris Geller." he said, then turned to look at her, seeing she was watching him talk about other with a light smile. "But not at first." he said, and she scrunched her eyebrows. "At first she was crazy." he said, turning back to the group with a smirk.

"Was not!" she told him.

"Oh yes you were." he said

"Why? Because I didn't fall for you. Or go that damn PJ Harvey concert. Or like you, like all the other chiltonites?" she asked, crossing her arms, glaring.

"Oh that's not it. "I knew you didn't like me," he said. "You hated me" he told her, his tone changing from playful to soft, and... hurt?

"I did not hate you." Rory said, her voice close to a whisper.

"Yes you did." he told her. "You said it yourself, that day you told bagboy you loved him. With those damn PJ Harvey tickets." he said, trying to switch the conversation back to playful.

"Well I didn't mean it." She told him.

"Mean what? The I love you you said to bagboy?" he asked, smirking and she rolled her eyes. "Or wait, if I remember correctly, it was something more along the lines of, " he stopped, clearing his throat to create suspense, scrunching his eyebrows and speaking in a louder high pitched voice., "I love you you idiot!" The group laughed, and Rory just rolled her eyes again.

"You called your boyfriend an idiot the first time you told him you loved him." Steph laughed, holding her drink.

"Well he was acting like one." Rory said without thinking and all the guys made an oooooo noise. "Wait, why did you say I was crazy?" she asked Tristan.

"Because you came into class, late and started screaming about how you should be able to take a test you were late for because you got hit by a deer!" he told her.

"You hit a deer?" Logan asked.

"No. I was hit by a deer she told them and they all tilted their heads and scrunched their faces in confusion. "Ugh, it was a really random, rare, once in a lifetime experience that I would rather not talk about right now." she told them.

"Ok let's talk about Tristan then." Steph said in a flirty voice, moving forward towards him.

"I was... a jerk." he said, honestly and took a sip of his drink.

"Wow." said Logan, feigning shock, and the others glared at him.

"You admitting that shows you're not one anymore." Rory told him with a little smile, that he returned.
