Kissing Fate
Chapter 1
It wasn't like Logan to cry, but as the elevator doors closed leaving Rory behind, he felt the tears come. A year away seemed like such a long time to be away, hell a few months would have been hard enough. But it seemed like it was to late to do anything about it now, everything was already in motion, and it was taking him away from where he wanted to be. If he had any sense, he would turn around right now and go back up to the apartment and tell Rory he wasn't leaving after all. He would hug her and tell her, tell her that he never would leave again. However, it seemed to Logan that going against his father's wishes was not exactly a smart idea. Though it defiantly wasn't a new one. Mitchem Huntzberger would make his life a living hell if he stayed, and Rory's too, and Logan couldn't stand for his father to do that to Rory. She deserved better than that, and leaving was the only way to protect her.
Rory's POV
Rory had collapsed to the floor moments after the elevator doors had closed. Tears shook her body and she let them come. He was gone, and he wasn't coming back. Part of her knew it was time for Logan to grow up, that Mitchem was right about that. But why did growing up have to bring such pain to her heart?
Lorelei's POV
Lorelei sat up in bed, the light from the afternoon sun across her face. For a moment she didn't know where she was, and then everything registered. Luke saying he wasn't going to marry her, the pain she felt at the words. She had been so upset and she didn't have anywhere to turn to, so she'd gone to the one person who had helped her in the past...Christopher. At first she had been crying so hard that Christopher hadn't understood what she was saying, but eventually she calmed down enough to tell him everything. He was in that moment, everything she needed, understanding, rational, a great friend. He hugged her and told her everything was going to be fine, and that Luke was an idiot for not marring her right their. Lorelei found herself hugging him tighter and then kissing him gently, and now here she was lying in his bed.
She knew that this was a mistake, and that it was only in her vulnerability that she had turned to Christopher. But he was weak, always had been, and when she told him not to stop, she knew in her heart that he wouldn't. She felt the tears slide down her cheeks as she thought of everything she had lost in the last twenty-four hours. Turing over she closed her eyes and tried to forget.
Logans POV
It had been the longest plane ride of his life. The whole time he couldn't get Rory out of his head. Getting through the next couple of months was going to be hard. He wasn't going to be able to see Rory again until Thanksgiving, and that was three months away. It was in that moment he despised his father for taking him away from her. Logan would just have to prove that love could survive everything that it was being put through, and Rory and Logan, it seemed, had already put it through just about everything.
The captain came on over the loudspeaker, announcing that the plane had landed, pulling Logan away from his thoughts. The crowd of people started to get up from their seats, and headed towards the exit. 'I am actually here.' Logan thought stepping off the plane, immediately spotting the black limo pulled, up next to the plane, ready to take him to fate.
