This is a one shot loosely based off of the song "The Fool"

My name is Cleopatra Leanne Fitzgerald. I am the fiance of Logan Huntzberger, media mogul. We have been together 2 1/2 years but he is not truly in love with me. He is kind and sweet. He will make a great father one day. However, when we're in our bed at night, he doesn't hold me. He hasn't cheated on me physically, but his heart has never been mine. We are supposed to be wed in 3 weeks but I don't know if I can marry someone who doesn't love me.

Who does he love you ask? Rory Gilmore. Ace. 99. Reporter Girl. His one true love. I found out about her 1 1/2 years ago through Colin and Finn. We were at his Yale 5 year reunion and a few people came up and asked how she was doing. He managed to turn the conversation around without going into too much. The festivities ended and Colin and Finn came back with us to our penthouse. They thought I went to bed around 3 AM when I heard Colin ask if he'd heard from Reporter Girl. I listened carefully to see if he was cheating. He said no. He hasn't tried to contact Ace in about 2 years. I heard Finn ask if Cleo knew about 99. He said no. He wasn't going to break my heart by saying that he wasn't fully in love.

Skip forward to today. It's a gala for the US Top 50 Reporters and Journalists. I looked through the list and saw the name Lorelai Leigh Gilmore and knew this had to be the same one. We said hello to Mitchum and Shira and then separated our ways. I walked around and talked to some people I knew but then out of the corner of my eye I saw him talking to a beautiful brunette. I knew that it was her. I stayed back and saw Logan light up like I haven't seen. There was a happiness in his eyes that I couldn't give him. That's when I decided to talk to her after he left. I wasn't going to make a scene. I wasn't going to cry. I was going to see if she was as in love with him and he was with her.

"Rory Gilmore?" I asked the brunette.
"Yes. How can I help you?" She replied

"You don't know who I am but you've probably heard of me. I'm Cleo Fitzgerald."
"Oh." I think she knew who I was.

"Do you still love him." She knew who him was. She tried to hid it by saying this was the first time she's seen him since graduation.

"I know it is. I'm not here to accuse you of anything or place blame on you. I know that you're a good person and you'd never hurt anyone intentionally. I just want to know if you still love him." I asked calmly. "Before you say anything, just know he still loves you. He woke up one night a few weeks ago screaming Ace. I found out about you a while ago but I just blew it off thinking it would dissolve but it hasn't.

"I don't know." She replied. She looked down and I knew then it wasn't true.

"Can you find him and give him this for me? It's yours. Just like his heart and his friends and most importantly, him. I just borrowed him for a while. Tell him thank you while it lasted and I'm not mad. Tell him not to lose you again."

I gave her my engagement ring and walked away. I walked away from the love of my life, but I wasn't his.
