I know my last story I wrote that Rory didn't love Logan, but I recently rewatched those episodes and I don't think thats true anymore. I do however think that they should have stayed broken up. Rory couldn't be herself around him and she and Jess are much better suited for each other
DISCLAIMER: I own nothing
"I thought we were broken up. I thought that's what the fight was. I thought that's what the separation was. Do you believe me? Do you believe that I honestly thought we weren't together?" Logan said looking Rory in the eyes.
Rory understood where he was coming from "I guess" she said and looked down
"So then, if you believe that, that I thought we weren't together, then do you believe that, in my mind, I was not cheating on you?"
Rory wanted to just accept that completely logical argument but something in her heart wasn't sitting right with that.
"I guess" was all she replied
"So then if you believe that, in my mind, I was not cheating on you, do you think you can forget what those vipers said today, put it behind you, and just come home with me? Come on, Rory. Just come home with me. Let's forget this crappy day ever happened, just go home. You want to make a pro/con list?"
Part of her wanted to laugh at his mention of the pro/con list and just forgive him, but she suddenly realized why she couldn't. "Logan, I can't go anywhere with you." Logan looked defeated." You hurt me and as illogical as it may sound, it doesn't matter if you thought you were cheating on me, you still did it. It took you months and an entire bridal party to decide you might want to try to get me back. I may love you," Logan perked up at that, but at her next words he looked down again. "But I can't trust myself to be around you if your going to run off and sleep with the first group of girls you meet every time we have a fight." Logan looked like he wanted to interject but she just held up her hand " Logan, you may think you love me but I'm not sure you know what love is, and I can't chance the heartache of you learning you were wrong. This wasn't a failed experiment, I think you could have a real relationship, but I'm ready for a real long term relationship that I don't think your up for. I can't feel more like your mother than your girlfriend. Good luck Logan, with everything."
With that she went back into the apartment. She heard a faint 'but ,Ace',she ignored it and slid to the floor her cheeks wet with tears. She knew she did the right thing. She needed a man, not a boy. And she needed a man who could handle a fight with out running off, because she wasn't the type to hold in her emotions.
So this just kinda occurred to me. I feel like logically Logan didn't do anything wrong. He had solid logic, which is why Rory went back to him, but love and relationships aren't always about logic, and Logan doesn't really get that. I also feel like Rory had to hold in a lot of herself in this relationship because Logan wouldn't accept her for it. The only time they had a real fight and he runs off and doesn't call her for a long time. I wouldn't be able to be myself around a person who couldn't handle any differences between us. Any way this is a Literati story because with her and Logan broken up before truncheon "everythings fixed" as it were. So just imagine everything at truncheon happened the way it did accept Rory didn't stop anything because her and Logan aren't together. So RXR and if you want me to write the part where Rory goes to truncheon and change this from a one shot to a longer story just let me know.
