Authors Note: It's been a very long time since I've done any fan fiction and I'm trying to get a feel for this again so I'm revamping my stories fixing and editing the horrible spelling and grammar and then I will be adding new chapters… To everyone who's reviewed and is still reading the story and waiting for updates I want to say thank you so much!! Your praise put smile on my face!!
The Past not so forgotten
Chapter 1
"Thank you". Rory said as she paid the cashier the money and grabbed her coffee. She then took the top off and took a long sip and chastised herself for not remembering how hot it was. "God" she mumbled a curse as some coffee landed on her hands and shirt.
"Oh, careful there, here take one of my napkins" a nice girl said as she handed Rory one of her napkins.
"Thanks, sometimes I'm so hypnotized by my addiction I forget the basics, ie, coffee --HOT!"
"Oh don't worry about it I'm exactly the same way I swear I don't function without at least two cups in me."
"You know what I think that you, me and my mother might just be kindred spirits."
Both girls laughed at the joke.
"I'm Caitlin; I just transferred here from Harvard."
"Really, you know I was actually thinking about going there before I settled here. My names Rory by the way, it's really Lorelei but nobody call me that."
"Well it's nice to meet you Rory, can I ask why did change your mind about Harvard?
"No of course not it's just my grandfather went here and it's not like it's a horrible school or anything ya know."
"Yeah"
"Can I ask why the transfer if you liked Harvard so much"
"Honestly?"
"Yeah."
"You'll think it stupid"
"No I won't. I find it easier not too judge people before my third cup of coffee at least"
"Alright, but you have to promise not to hold it against me or think I'm just a silly old school girl which a crush"
"I promise I won't judge you or hold it against you." She said holding up the boy scouts sign for scouts honor.
"Okay, I followed a boy here"
"A boy?"
"Yeah we were together for may be a year and a half in high school and time got in the way suffice it o say something's happened and it led to him breaking up with me, don't get me wrong it was entirely my fault but I don't know we went our separate ways and after two years at Harvard with me thinking about nothing but him I decided to come here and win him back, and I'm gonna do everything in my power to make him see that, it's worth another chance."
"Wow, that's incredible I wish I had your kind of courage."
"Oh there's got to be story behind that."
"I don't know?"
"What are you talking about I just basically told you my life story within five minutes of me meeting you, I trusted you with it now you can trust me with yours."
"Okay! Okay! There's this guy."
"Isn't there always!"
"Do you wanna hear this or not?"
"Sorry sorry continue"
"He incredible he's the sweetest most obnoxious most arrogant and conceded guy you've ever met but I can't get him out of my head. And I think that he knows it too! I mean how could he not; I'm like a bumbling idiot around him."
"So what the problem he doesn't feel the same way?"
"No, honestly I think he does, I mean there's the little hints that way he always leans in closer pretending as if he didn't hear even though I practically yelled it , or how he finds little way to touch me or hold my hand."
"Oh that's sweet"
"Yeah it is"
"So I ask again what's the problem?"
"He won't make a move and I'm too scared to make a move and when I try to psyche myself up I tend to think about the past and eventually I just give up"
"What happened in the past?"
"That story is best left for another day"
"Well the only advice I can give you is to tell him because from what you've told me I think your both on the same page you just sort of need a little push."
"Yeah well, we'll see if that happens" Rory looks at her watch."God I can't believe we've sat here for half an hour I have a class to get to."
"Yeah me too, listen here's my cell phone number it's so nice to meet someone I can talk to on the first day."
"Yeah it is, I'll be sure to call you later maybe, I don't know maybe you can come to my dorm we'll watch some movies have a girls night in, you can meet my friends, ya know get acquainted with the group?"
"That sounds great Rory call me!" Caitlin and Rory then went in different directions as Rory was walking down the path she heard someone calling her.
"Ace! Wait up!"
"Hey Huntzberger. What do you need now?"
"What I need something to walk my favorite reporter to class?" He asked as he put his arm around her shoulder, she shivered at the gesture, which of course made him wrap his arm a little tighter.
"You cold Ace?"
"No no I'm good." She said smiling. She started thinking to herself "May be Caitlin is right I should just tell him how I'm feeling. Maybe then we can be together. I'll tell him tonight, no, I'm having a movie night tonight okay so ill tell him tomorrow, she glances at him and see's him smile at her. Alright maybe I'll tell him next week."
"God I'm such a chicken!" She mumbled to herself.
"What? There's a chicken" Logan replies.
"No nothing." Shaking her head. Logan lets out a gentle laugh. And lets Rory go into her classroom.
"See ya later Rory."
Let me know what you think!
