Okay. Here is some background info that might be important for the story. I am still figuring out some stuff, so please read the bottom as well for another quick note.
-Rory, Stephanie and Paris are roommates at Yale for the second year in a row.
-Logan is a Prince (and is heir to the throne), and Colin and Finn aren't direct Royalty, but they are the closest thing to it without being actual royalty (basically very rich and high class).
-Lorelai and Chris are married (and live in a house in stars hollow, bigger than the one on the show), and Rory is somewhat high society oriented (but not too much).
Read on, and enjoy!
Unpacking and Planning
Logan Huntzberger was royalty. Not purely because of his popularity, but Logan was heir to the Huntzberger throne. Calling Logan royalty isn't just a clever comparison to his high society lifestyle, but he was a real prince, and would one day become a king.
Prince Logan spent most of his time attending outrageous events and parties, which usually earned him a spot on the front page of every major newspaper in the area (usually with a few scantily clad girls hanging from his arms). He spent most of his time with his best friends Colin and Finn who tended to follow Logan anywhere and everywhere he went. All three were well known for their high social standing, compulsive party going, and being the most sought after by paparazzi.
The King and Queen, a.k.a. Logan's parents, were not very thrilled with Logan's lack of responsibility. He was soon to be crowned king, after all. In their eyes, he needed to prove that he was ready and willing to take the throne. That might have been why it was so easy for Logan to convince his parents to let him go to university, where he will learn "important life skills" and "will be able to attain leadership skills and a sense of responsibility."
"Where are we escaping to this time?" Finn slurred, as he lost his balance and fell backwards onto a couch in Logan's room.
"Yes, I'm curious too." Colin added, knowing very well that wherever Logan went, they were coming along for the ride.
"Well," Logan started, contemplating the situation in his head. "We have to go somewhere respectable. We can't just go to any old school, or my parents will never buy that that's where I want to get an education."
"What education? I thought we were just going for fun?" Colin asked.
"Well that's part of it." Logan said, "But I just want a break from all this royalty stuff. I want to go somewhere where nobody knows who I am and won't refer to me as 'Prince Logan' and where I'm not bothered by paparazzi or my parents…" Logan trailed off. "But still. We have to find an acceptable school, or my parents will never let me get the hell out of here."
"What about Yale, mate?" Finn suggested, still sprawled out over the couch.
"That's not a half bad idea Finn." Logan said, excitement rising in his voice.
Colin was looking at Finn with a bewildered expression on his face.
"I know I'm a brilliant drunk." Finn added after noticing the expression that had taken over Colin's face.
"It's perfect!" Logan exclaimed. "And it will be a piece of cake to get in. We have all had relatives go there at some point or another, and if that doesn't get us in we have some very influential families."
"Never underestimate the value of money." Colin said, recovering from his shock.
"Okay, well then we just need to fill our parents in on the details, and then we will be there in time for the fall semester!" Logan said, a smile spreading across his face.
"I wonder if there are lots of redheads at Yale…" Finn mused before passing out on the couch.

Rory, Stephanie and Paris were standing in the common room surrounded by boxes. Slowly the pile started to diminish as the girls dragged the boxes into their respective rooms.
"So, are you girls excited for our next big year at Yale?" Stephanie asked her fellow roommates.
"Oh yeah." Paris said sarcastically, "I'm always psyched to hear a whole bunch of blonde bimbos ask me why I'm pre-med if sick people freak me out."
"Well it is kind of wei--" Steph began.
"Don't start with me!" Paris warned, and took the last of her boxes into her room and slammed the door behind her.
"How about you Rory? Pumped for another year at Yale?" Steph asked.
"I am actually. Summer seemed too long. I'm glad to get back into the school routine." Rory replied.
"Well I'm not going to let you just work your ass off all year. You are going to have some fun this year too." Steph said with a smile.
"I look forward to it." Rory said, as she lugged her last box into her room, and closed it behind her.
Steph took another look at the common room around her, but then she followed suit and brought her last box into her room and got ready to unpack for another year at Yale.

Okay well that is all for now. I have a couple things that I would appreciate some input on, and they are:
-Should I include Honor and/or Rose?
-I thought I might put Mitchum and Shira Huntzberger as Logan's aunt and uncle so Mitchum can still be the 'great newspaper man'. And then Logan's parents can just be other characters (they won't be mentioned that much anyway).
-Should Rory still be with Dean, or should they have broken up already?
-Where should Logan be from? (Prince of where?)
I think that's it for now. All ideas and opinions would be really helpful! And please review! Whether it is negative or positive I still love it, so please, please, please review!
