AN: This is a new story based off an email I recieved and I thought right about Rory and Logan. So enjoy!!
"Mate, I'm telling you all women are the same" Finn explains. We're having an uncommon boys' night at the house. The girls have decided they had enough of us and left for the evening.
"We all know that, Steph even picked of random rambling from a reporter girl we all know" Colin states looking at me.
"And how is that my fault" I say handing him another scotch.
"You had to go and ask her to marry you didn't you man, it started a ripple effect. Hell I woke up the other morning to a taped picture of a diamond ring to my forehead" Colin complains and that so sound like Steph. We all laugh at the image
"But she didn't say yes the first time, it was only because she showed up here that we got another chance. That was all Ace, boys" I remind him.
Flashback
"Rory, what are you doing here" I say walking up to the house after work, it's the 4th of July and I went to work not to think of the parties going on in the Hamptons that the boys are at, and Ace is sitting on my porch.
"Would, I was in the neighborhood work?" she questions biting her lower lip.
"Not really, last time I checked a map Connecticut was on the east coast and we're standing in California" I joke. It's so easy with her.
"Fine you caught me. I flew out to see you" she states giving up too easily that I know something is going on. You don't date her for three years without knowing her traits.
"Why" I question indicating that we should sit in the steps. For some reason I don't want to take her inside just yet.
"I got a job and I wanted to call you but couldn't I was so afraid that you were going to hang up on me that I didn't. But that's a whole other story in its self. It's quite funny that I was working for Hugo of all people but that's not why I'm here" she rambles and I smile. Still the same Ace and she looks at me. I see that she's afraid of something. I can read her like a book.
"We'll get to that later. What I want to know is why you are sitting here on my door step" I question. She digs in her purse for something and I watch her.
"This" she says handing me a Ziploc bag with what I know is a pregnancy test or three which with closer examination they all say positive.
"You're…" I say stunned looking at her than back at the bag in my hand and back again. Can this really be happening after everything?
"I hit the clinic in Houston, that's where the campaign was and they did an ultrasound" she says digging once more in the bag and pulling out black and white photos, which she hands me too.
"May 2nd" I say reading the estimated conception date on the picture and she nods. "That makes you…" I say trying to wrap my mind around my ex girlfriend showing up with proof that she's carrying our child.
"8 weeks and two days since today is the 4th" she says not looking at me.
"Wow…just Wow!" I say and I see her nod from the corner of my eye. She's just as shocked and confused as I am. "Ace, are you okay. I mean do you need anything" I question unsure what to say or do right now.
"Water would be great, damn its hot here how do you handle it?" she laughs and I stand up.
"We should talk inside, there's air conditioning and water" I say extending my hand to her and she takes it willingly.
"Lead the way" she says smiling at me and I squeeze her hand. She does it back and I know that we'll figure this out together.
"I wonder if you have anything else hidden in that magic bag of yours, Mary Poppins" I laugh opening the door.
"Sorry no hat stand or umbrella, but there's a Pro/con list, flight tickets, IPod, cell phone, wallet" she rattles off and I laugh, she's still Ace.
"Pro/con list" I smirk and she looks at me.
"It's from May, though" she tells me as I walk into the kitchen. She stopped and I look back at her. "Logan where is all your furniture?" she questions and I knew she would wonder that.
"I've been here two months Ace, I haven't had time to decorate, and I really didn't care about it either" I state grabbing a bottle of water for her. She perches herself on one of the two stools by the kitchen island and downs half the bottle.
"Thirsty" I smirk she never drinks water like that. I was like watching Finn down scotch.
"You have no idea how much this kid wants to drink, I think I finished off a 6pack of water this morning alone" she jokes.
"I still trying to wrap my head around that and the fact that you're sitting here right now" I state honestly.
"You and me both, those were only taken this morning, I flew straight out here, Hell my mother still thinks I'm in Houston" she laughs and I look at her surprised.
"Rory, you have to call her, she'll send the National Guard after you, that's all I need, not only a crazy Gilmore trying to kill me for getting you pregnant but the National Guard knocking my door down" I state knowing she will.
"I needed to see you, you deserved to know first, nothing mattered to me but coming here and telling you. I'm so scared Logan and I know that this is a lot for you to take in after everything, but damn it Huntzberger I missed you" she says almost crying and I walked over and hug her.
"I've missed you too Ace" I say holding her. The feeling of just having her in my arms again, makes nothing that happened matter. I have Ace again and I plan on keeping her now.
"I was so wrong, nothing made sense without you. I can't be without you anymore. I feel like I've been walking around in a fog for the last few weeks, hence the reason why I just realized about the baby" she cries into my shoulder.
"It wasn't a picnic for me either" I say rubbing her back as she tries to calm down.
"Do you think maybe there…might be a chance…that you want to…I don't know" she says confused and I tip her chin to look at me.
"That's not the overconfident woman I love, and yes" I say pulling the silver chain over from under my shirt as she watches me.
"That's my ring" she says and I look at her. She still thinks it's her, I think that's a good sign.
"It was your ring, but you gave it back so technically it's mine now" I state and she opens her mouth into a big O, like I offended her. "But, considering you're carrying our child, maybe I'll let you borrow it" I smirk. I'm really debating on whether or not to give it to her now. I want this but I don't want her to think it's only because of the baby.
"What if I never want to give it back, what if I want to wear it every day for the rest of our lives" she questions and I knee down on one knee. That's what I needed to hear.
"Then you have to marry me for that to happen Ace" I say sipping the ring off my neck and holding it in my hand.
"Do I need to put it on myself" she says biting her lip. I haven't even really asked her, but she's cutting ahead of me.
"Is that a yes" I question standing up. Does she finally want this? Or is it because she's pregnant now? Rory wouldn't do that. If she's here, that means she wants to be with me.
"It's a definitely yes. It's the yes I should have given you months ago. It's the yes that I dream about every time I think of that day" she says crying. I unclasp the chain and ring drops into my hand and I slide it on her finger.
"You know, everyone is going to think we're engaged only because of the baby" She tells wrapping her arms around my neck as she stood up.
"Then they don't know us, plus we have some time before we really need to tell them about the baby. It's like our own little secret" I smirk pulling her closer.
"I love you Logan" she says and that's all I need. "I love you too Rory" I say before capturing her lips in a passionate kiss.
End of flashback
"We all know you got your perfect Ace, but it's complaining night man, the girls are driving us mad" Colin says.
"You think living with a Gilmore girl that is not only pregnant but trying to plan a wedding of her dreams from across the country is easy" I say shocked. I've been living in hell.
"It's Gilmore, how hard can she be? She's the easiest person to please. You give her an endless supply of coffee and all the books she can read and bang you get peace and quiet. I deal with Steph and that damn FINE attitude every day Fine this and Fine that for a simple suggestion. I rather just keep my mouth shut" Colin laughs.
"Oh I'm familiar with that, but have we forgotten that Rory has been banned from drinking coffee from the doctor. It's unhealthy in pregnancy. That set off so many personalities that I didn't know she had" I laugh.
"Everything is FINE, I'm Fine, stop asking…Rosie says that all the bloody time, sometimes I just want to bloody fine her in the mouth" Finn adds and we look at him. Finn is so not violent, that it's funny for him to say that.
"Try Rory with morning sickness, all I did was try to help her and bang I get a I'm Fine, just leave me alone or if I try to say something about the wedding its. Fine Logan whatever and then just walks or now waddles away" I laugh and it causes a ripple of laughing. "Wait, did I tell you about the time I got screamed out and received a Fine in the middle of the grocery store for not wanting ten boxes of crackers, I thought she was going to blow her head off. She scared the poor old man walking by" I add smirking. By the look on their face, they don't believe me.
Flashback
"Rory stop, this is crazy, why do we need so much, it's just the two of us" I state as we walk throw the grocery store. We're living together for three weeks and it's the first time that we went together. She normally does when I'm at work. I know that Gilmores eat crazy about of food, but why the hell do we need 10 boxes of assorted crackers? There not even a meal.
"What's crazy about stocking up on crackers?" she states like it's completely logical, holding two other boxes in her hand.
"Because you don't eat them that fast, we still have three boxes from the other day" I argue and she looks evil.
"You know what, you're not home all day and I am. I know what we need and you don't, but Fine! Don't get the damn boxes, see if I can, but when you're running out at 3 am when I need them I don't want to hear you complain about, but FINE!" she yells at me place the boxes back on the shelf and storming out of the aisle. I just stare at her and hear an older man chuckling behind me.
"Pregnant son" he questions and I nod. She's crazy or scary, I just haven't figured out which one yet.
"Just get the crackers son, it will save you a trip out again, it may make no sense to you, but to her she needs the crackers. I learned the hard way" he says tapping my shoulder. "Oh, and orange juice" he adds before walking away. I grab the crackers and head to find Ace.
"What are you doing" I question finding her down the baby aisle and I know we have plenty of time for that. If she's thinking of stocking up in diapers I'm drawing a line.
"Did you know that they have 10 different types of diapers for newborns, how the hell are we supposed to know which are best?" she questions not even looking at me but studying the shelves and I see her hand placed gently on her flat stomach. That alone is an image I want to remember. We're having a baby and all this crazy personality flips of hers is because she's carrying our child.
"I'm thinking research and trial and error Ace; but if you have a better idea, I'm all ears" I state and she looks at me.
"No, that's pretty good…oh, you got the crackers. Have I told you I love you" she says smiling brightly, grabbing the roasted vegetable one and opening them. I guess it true what Lorelai said, the only time in her life she will eat healthy is when pregnant.
"What do you say we stock up on some juice for you too" I smile at her.
"Orange…lots and lots of orange" she smiles kissing me hard on the lips like I just told her she could have any diamond in the world and headed off again and I follow her to the refrigerator section.
End of Flashback
"I wished I had a camera for that, I would have loved to see psycho Rory" Colin laughs.
"You'll get there man, it's not all smile and love. It's all the little crap you have to deal with that makes it worth it" I tell him.
