Two years after season 7 except for when Logan proposed to Rory she said yes. September 2009

Prologue:
***Rory and Logan spent one year planning their wedding while on different sides on the country. Logan still went to San Francisco and worked for a company where he excelled. He was able to establish a good name and get transferred to a company in New York right before their wedding. Rory spent one year traveling and working on the campaign trail with Obama meeting all types of connections. That finished in July of 2008. Rory met with a senior editor for the New York Times and was able to land a junior editing job. Rory and Logan had their wedding in September 2008.

Lorelai and Luke were able to work through their differences and got back together shortly after Rory left for her new job. Luke finally officially moved into Lorelai's house. Lorelai and Luke eloped (with the exception of Rory being there) at Martha's Vineyard like they had planned before, in June of 2008 With Lorelai pushing 40 they have been struggling to conceive a baby. April has been going back and forth between New Mexico and Stars Hollow as per the custody agreement. Lorelai has been becoming closer to April. Anna is not happy about the bond they have been building even though Luke and Lorelai are now married.***

"Happy anniversary Ace!" Rory stirs from her sleep to see that Logan has made her breakfast in bed. Logan hands her a steaming cup of coffee from her favorite mug.
"Logan you didn't have to do this, what time is it?" she asks sleepily.
"It's nine thirty" Logan tells her.
"Then its not our anniversary yet, we got married in the evening" Rory teases.
"Well don't worry we will be celebrating then too."
"Logan, how many times have I told you, you don't need to do so much for me, you spoil me."
"There is nothing I like better than spoiling my wife."
"I love you Logan."
"I love you too, Ace."
"I can't believe it's been one year since we tied the knot."
Rory says reminiscing on their wedding day. It was a small wedding at the Dragon Fly. All the family attended, sans Logan's parents who were not thrilled about the wedding, but that was no surprise. Her grandpa walked her down the aisle. She remembered the anxiety she felt about not asking her Dad to walk her down the aisle. Ever since her mom's short lived marriage to Chris, things have not been the same between them. She thought about having Luke do it, but did not want to cause any drama. If she had picked the step-dad over her real dad she knew that was just a recipe for disaster. When she finally decided Richard would do it. If she could be the best man at their vowel renewal, Richard could give her away and her wedding. She would never forget the look on Logan's face when she saw him as she walked down the aisle. She had been feeling nervous, unsure if marriage so young was right, but the moment she saw Logan she knew she would spend the rest of her life with him.

"So, how have you enjoyed being a Huntzberger this past year?"
"It's been nice but honestly I kind of miss being a Gilmore."
"I said you didn't have to take my last name" Logan reminds her.
"I know, but I wanted to. I'm just teasing you, besides, every time I tell someone my name at work they cower in fear because they think I'm related to your dad. It's kind of funny."
"You are related to him, you're his daughter-in-law" Logan retorts.
"I seriously doubt he has ever referred to me as his daughter-in-law." Rory laughs at the thought.
"Yeah you are probably right" Logan admits.

**Friday evening the Gilmore Estate*** The four of them Luke, Lorelai, Richard, Emily are sitting down for cocktail hour. "So what are Logan and Rory doing for their anniversary?" Emily asks Lorelai.
" I don't know Mom, Logan wouldn't tell her but I'm sure it's something extravagant" Lorelai replies.
"Oh I bet it is, knowing Logan, Richard adds.
"So how are you doing Luke?" Emily asks with only a hint of bitterness in her voice.
There was some bad air between them when once again Lorelai and Luke got married she did not tell her parents until the Friday night dinner when they came home from their month long trip. Things got back on the mend when Lorelai decided to let her mom know they were trying to have a baby. It was a long hard decision to make, as it went against everything she's ever believe. Tell Emily Gilmore nothing. Although she did it because she thought that would soften the blow about them eloping. It worked. Emily was thrilled. She offered to pay for all their medical care which of course Lorelai did not accept. What she did accept was to Emily wanting to buy them a new house if and when she did have a baby since they would need the extra space. Lorelai had yet to run that by Luke, but she was sure she could convince him especially if it meant that she was pregnant and carrying his baby. How could he say no to her?
"Things are the same"
"How is everything with April?"
"Things are going fine, she just started her junior year of high school."
Luke went on to tell them about April adjusting into a regular routine flying back and forth between New Mexico and Connecticut. How much he enjoyed raising a daughter and was looking forward to being able to raise another with Lorelai. The drive home from yet another Friday night dinner was pleasant.
"I think you're parents are finally getting used to me as a son-in-law"
"I think they finally realized that you aren't going anywhere, and I think my dad finally gave up trying to get you to franchise Luke's, or trying to shave you" Lorelai jokes.
"Yeah I was hoping he would, and your mom? She only gave me one backhanded compliment today so, progress."
"Oh yeah about your shoes! It's refreshing to see a man who wears... comfortable shoes! I'm sorry Luke."
"Don't worry about it, they have come along way I will give them that."
"My mom is pretty excited about us having a baby"
"I am too, speaking of, we need to get home as soon as possible so we can try."

Two hours later an exhausted Lorelai lays on Luke's bare chest.
"Luke?"
"Lorelai?"
"I hope we were successful." She almost whispers.
"Me too."
And he really did. He had April and he loved her with all his heart, but to have a baby with the love of his life, and actually be able to raise this child from birth like he missed out on raising April. "Luke?"
"Yes my beautiful wife?"
"What if i can't have anymore kids?"
"Then we won't have kids."
"You won't hate me?"
"Of course not, I would love to raise a baby with you, but if we can't, well. We will buy a lot of plants."
"I'm trying to be serious here!" Lorelai playfully slaps him.
"I know, I know, I'm sorry."
"How would you feel about trying Invitro fertilization?"
"If you are feeling up to trying that, we can definitely try and go that route."
"We will have to do some research on it, I don't know all that much about it" Lorelai confesses.
"That's something we can do together then because I am clueless when it comes to that." Luke lets out a sigh of relief knowing it wasn't just him who was unfamiliar with fertility treatments.

Rory and Logan finished a wonderful dinner together, that Logan had a chef prepare. He had recreated a night they shared together a few years back. When he made a surprise visit to Rory while he was living in London. A picnic on the rooftop with candles and wine. Different rooftop this time but the effect was still the same. He chose this because this is the night he can remember deciding that he was going to propose to her. He had made a lot of mistakes but there had been one constant in his life, and that was Rory. His Ace. From the very beginning she intrigued him, so different from himself and yet they worked. They balanced each other. Logan stared at his beautiful wife. He wanted to bring something up but was unsure of the timing. They had been married awhile now and still the subject of kids only came up a few times and the conversations were short. Maybe some day but not now. They both were heavy into their careers and that was what was important to them for the time being. However it had been a good while since the topic had come up, and Logan decided he would revisit it.
"Ace, Ive been thinking and I know we've talked about it before but I just wanted to touch base with you and see if we are on the same page still."
"Okay about what?" Rory asked intrigued.
"Kids, I know we said maybe someday so I just wanted to know where your head is at."
"I'm pretty much where we left off last time. I love kids, I love playing with Sookie's kids I'm just not sure if I want my own, full time yet, or anytime soon."
"I'm glad you said that, because frankly neither am I, I have never really felt the need to be a father, never thought I would be a good one. However, I didn't think I would be a good boyfriend/husband either but I think I do okay."
"You're the best husband Logan."
"So It's settled. No kids yet, maybe later maybe not"
"Right, but since we are on the subject. There is one thing I would like to run by you."
