"Paris I can't."
"Why not."
"Um, maybe the fact that I'm in North Carolina, and can't just walk out the doors saying I need to go home for the weekend."
"Let me talk to your parents. Better yet I'll talk to your grandfather, he won't say no to me."
"What if I said I won't do it."
"Excuse me. Did you just say that you won't do this, I need one favor and you are refusing? You can not refuse I need you to do this." Paris was so sure that he was the perfect escort/date for Rory, the minor details of getting him to Hartford seemed to small in comparison.
"Paris I have to refuse, there is no way my parents are going to agree to this."
"But it is your fault that she doesn't already have a date." Guilt had to work.
"How can Rory not having a date be my fault when I haven't even been around Hartford let alone Chilton in the last year and half."
"You are the one giving her the reputation of being a 'Mary'." Paris said with tone that could make even the smartest and most logical person second guess themselves. "Plus Tristan I seriously believe you are the only one she would ever agree to going with."
"She doesn't even know. No Paris, I will not be your toy in bring to life a modern day Carrie." Tristan was about to hang up on Paris knowing that he would never get her to understand that he couldn't just bring Rory to prom and not want more.
"Tristan I'm sorry let me tell you the whole story, of why Rory needs help with finding a date for Prom."
"Be quick about it Paris." Tristan sounded bored over the phone but deep down he really cared. He wanted Rory to have a good time at prom, but he knew that there was no way his parents would agree to allowing him to return to Hartford for a night of parting to escort a girl that was a nobody in their eyes. He didn't want to get his hopes up, to just have them shattered again.
"Rory broke up with Dean, the tall guy you hated, to go out with this guy who didn't care about anything, but loved to read and was very smart. Opposites really and I have no clue what she saw in him he was a loser really."
"Paris stay with the story." <>"Anyway he isn't going to graduate since he missed so many days, and there fore can't take Rory to the Star's Hollow Prom. Which she has been planed to go to for the last two years, so she could spend the special night with her best friend, and who ever her date was. Well since that won't be happening, and her boyfriend just up and left her to go to who knows where, she is left broken hearted and dateless. Lorelai, Rory's mom, and I were talking and we decided that Rory would get all depressed and forget about the prom. Therefor not make any plans to go, and then regret it later in life, and have to spend thousands in psychotherapy to over come the rage of never going to her senior prom, among other things with that mother of hers." Paris paused to catch her breath. "We figured we would plan for her, just incase she forgets."
"So Rory doesn't even know about what you are trying to do for her?"
"No Tristan and this is very important to me. Rory help me through so much this year, and I know that you will make sure she has a good time. Please do this if not for me, then for Rory." Paris was bagging in the really I will bow down and kiss your feet if it would work better way.
"Ok Paris I will do this but you have to work on my parents, and plan everything since I will most likely be stuck down here until the day of prom if not indefinitely.
