"Oh, god, remind me why we are here." Logan complained.
"She's your sister and she asked you to come." Rory explained, again. "I'll ring the…"
But Rory was cut off by Honor opening the door. "You're late and I think Mom and Dad want to tell you something 'cause they're anxious for you to get here"
They entered the house and Honor led them straight to the dining room nad notied that Josh and Logan's parents were waiting to eat. Things were awkwardly silent when Elias broke in.
ELIAS: There are serious matters to be discussed here. This is an important family. Marrying into it is important business.
LOGAN: Okay, I'm sorry. I have to jump in here. Grandpa, we all respect you and Mom and Dad, but the bottom line here is, Honor has to be happy. Now, if she loves Josh, then –
HONOR: Logan, I appreciate you defending me but I can take it from here. Mom, Grandpa, I had hoped that you would be happy for me, but obviously that's not going to happen. You didn't even let me announce it to you before you formed your opinion, and I'm sorry you feel the way you do, but Josh and I made it official last week. We are engaged now and no matter what you say, we are going to get married. In June.
SHIRA: Well, of course you're going to get married! You've been dating for
three years, and I already put a hold on the Japanese Tea Garden for next spring.
HONOR: Oh. Well, that sounds great, thank you!
LOGAN: So we should celebrate then!
ELIAS: We'll celebrate when we have finished our discussion!
HONOR: Which discussion?
ELIAS: The discussion about unsuitable people marrying into this family.
HONOR: What?
ELIAS: You should know better than this, Logan! I know you like to joke
around, and tease us, but I always thought at the end of the day, you
understood what your responsibilities to this family were!
SHIRA: Logan, you just haven't thought about this. I mean, I'm sure Rory understands. She wants to work. Isn't that right, Rory? Emily's always talking about you wanting to be a reporter and travel around doing this and that. A girl like Rory has no idea what it takes to be in this family, Logan.
LOGAN: Oh my God.
SHIRA: She wasn't raised that way. She wasn't bred for it. I'd like to say that this isn't at all about her mother, but it it, it's just, you come from two totally different worlds.
ELIAS: It would never work. Not for you, and certainly not for us.
LOGAN: Okay, this conversation is going to end right now. I am not going to sit here –
ELIAS: You are going to be taking over this company! That's what you are
going to be doing! And when you do, you are going to need the right kind of person at your side. This isn't college, Logan!
SHIRA: And whatever happened to that Fallon girl? I loved her. Do you talk anymore?
LOGAN: No, we don't talk! We never talked, you talked.
SHIRA: Oh, what a shame. I just loved her.
SHIRA: Logan. You have to understand. You bring this girl home without any warning at all, and Honor tells us you're calling her your girlfriend! We have to take that seriously.
"So, Logan the reason for this explanation is that your mother and I have arranged you to be married! Congratulations!" Mitchum exclaimed.
"What? How long?" Logan yelled angrily.
"How long what"
"How long have you known?"
"Since you were born, Logan." Shira explained.
"And you are just now telling me. Now that I have decided to settle down." Logan said, disbelieving.
"Logan, this is an honor." Elias informed him as Logan snorted. "You are lucky to be marrying such a promising girl. She wants to work too, and her name is so powerful that it is okay. So you don't have to have a 'bimbo' as you call it."
"Who is the lucky girl?" Logan said sarcastically.
"Lorelai Leigh Hayden." Mitchum interjected proudly.
The dining room was silent, except for a thunk as Rory hit the ground.
Tell me what you think!
