I don't own Gilmore girls
Rory woke up and stretched. She sniffed the air and smiled. She got up and stumbled into the kitchen area. "Whoever made Coffee is a god among men." She said pouring herself a hug mug.
"Ha I told you I was a god Colin." Logan said.
"Great now his head is going to get even bigger Colin groused. "You can also thank me since I am the one who told him we better have plenty of coffee in the room."
"Well Colin thank you very much I knew you loved me." Rory kissed his cheek and sat on the stool beside him holding her coffee close like she was afraid someone would snatch it away at any moment.
"If she wasn't your cousin I'd be very jealous right now." Stephanie joked sitting next to Rory. "He never makes sure I have fresh coffee."
"That is not true." Colin protested. "Plus Rory without Coffee is a sight you do not want to see."
"it's true." Rory said taking a sip of the elixir of life. "I'm not pleasant without coffee."
"one time I woke her up and didn't have coffee with me so she punched me I had a black eye for a week." Colin said.
"In my defense he woke me at four in the morning.
"You told me too." Colin threw his hands up in the air.
"Why?" Logan asked confused.
"Black Friday sales Aunt Lorelai and Rory always dragged me through the stores.
"No fair." Stephanie pointed at Colin "This year you're going with me. No complaining no whining."
"oh just great." Colin rolled his eyes.
"Why is it so bloody loud out here." Finn snapped coming out of his room.
"Oh Kitten you're still here and cute as a button this fine morning looking all sleep ruffled.
"Um thanks I think." Rory said confusion written all over her face.
"Just ignore him." Stephanie suggested.
"Okay then." Rory said shrugging
"Hey don't ignore me I'm pretty and exotic just what you need."
At that Rory almost fell off her chair she was laughing so hard and Logan had to catch her.
"There you go can't have you breaking that pretty little head of yours I think Colin would be upset."
"you three are ridiculous." She said standing up and draining the rest of her coffee. "Well I'm off to the paper before Doyle goes on a war path. Pretty sure you're supposed to be there too." She pointed a Logan."
"ugg are you sure you're secretly a spy for my father Ace."
"Ace?" she gave him a weird look.
"Well I didn't know you worked on the paper but since you are Ace Reporter seems like an appropriate nickname.
"okay MAC." She shook her head.
"Mac? Dare I ask." Colin said.
"He told me to call him Master and commander so Mac it is." Rory shrugged. "I was serious though you should probably come with me. I have to stop by my room first but you're like a puppy so I don't dare let you out of my sight.
"Man she's really bossy." Logan said going into his room to change.
"Tried to tell you but you didn't believe me and just though she was hot."
"I still think she's hot." Logan shouted back.
"Oh that's just great." Colin turned to Rory. "Don't date Logan he just and Fyi he doesn't do Girlfriends he's not Dean or Jess."
Rory's eyes narrowed at him. "Thanks for that." She snapped as Logan came out his room. "Are you ready I don't want to be here anymore."
"Dude what did you do to her?" Logan asked watching as Rory stalked out of the room.
"nothing I just… never mind you better go before she gets more pissed off." Colin pointed out.
"Right well I guess I'm going to the paper so you three later." With that Logan was gone and chasing after a pissed of Rory.
"Logan went to the paper I think the world is coming to an end." Stephanie said.
"too loud you're all too loud." Finn laid his head on the table.
"So care to explain that little display back there?" Logan asked.
"No I don't it's Colin being Colin now I'm going to my room so come on. Once she made it into her room she looked around the trashed place. "Yeah I'm not cleaning this up Paris can deal with this aftermath." She left Logan in the living room and hurriedly changed and grabbed her books so she could head straight to class.
They were half way to the paper when Rory stopped at a coffee cart. "Seriously you just had Coffee."
"what's your point?"
"nothing I guess." He said intercepting her and paying for the coffee.
"Thanks." She saluted him with her coffee causing him to chuckle.
When they made it to the paper they heard Doyle call out "Oh Gilmore good you're here and you come bearing Huntzbergr well isn't this a surprise."
"Figure he should do something around here." She said putting her things down on the desk.
"Well I've given out all the beats already so I'm not sure what you'll do."
"That's fine I'll just take a nap."
"No you won't." Rory threw a balled up piece of paper at him.
"Fine I guess I won't just give me what ever you have." Doyle hurried off to do that not wanting to upset the Heir to the Huntzberger dynasty
"It's always fun to watch them scurry off like that." Logan chuckled.
"You are so ridiculous." Rory informed him.
"you do like to point that out." Logan acknowledge then Rory started to ignore him so she could right her piece she was working on.
"Well I'm done." Rory said three hours later as she finished her piece and sent it off to Doyle.
"And I have this for you." Logan put the coffee down in front of her. She went wide eyed and took a taste.
"Wow and just the way I like it too."
"Well I paid attention this morning."
"Well thanks for this." She lifted the coffee now I'm off to class then back to my room and hoping that Paris cleaned up the mess."
"Well here's to hoping don't be a stranger Ace."
"Don't think I could be if I wanted. Tell Colin I'll see him at Friday night dinner or I'll hunt him down. She waved and with that she was gone like a whirlwind.
Logan made his way back to his room to grab his books finding Colin ready to walk out the door himself. "So Rory sent the message she'll see you at Friday night dinner or she'll hunt you down. Fair warning I think she was serious."
"She's always serious." Colin groaned. "This is just great stuck at Dinner with my grandparents on a Friday night.
"How did those dinners even start."
"long story short my aunt had Rory at sixteen she left society and raised her in a small town but when Rory was fifteen she got into Chilton Aunt Lorelai couldn't pay for it so she went to my grandparents and they loaned her the money and Friday night dinner was born. Then they loaned Rory money for Yale so it still continues and sometimes like this week I get dragged into it also.
"Well you have fun with that better you then me." Logan joked grabbing his books and both boys surprisingly headed to class.
Rory came back to her own room two hours and another coffee later to find it about the same as she'd left it only now Paris was in a corner crafting. "Paris clean up this mess I have work to do." With that Rory went into her room and closed the door before dialing her mother's number.
"Lorelai's house of intrigue how may I help you?"
"So grandma was here yesterday and Colin has to go to Friday night dinner so I guess it was worth it." Rory chuckled
"ooh that's going to be fun." Lorelai said with glee.
"I know right. So how are you and Luke?"
"Well you see I needed coffee."
"of course."
"I know right, so I needed coffee and Luke doesn't keep any in his apartment."
"Ooh this sounds like a dirty story."
"oh it is so as I was saying he doesn't keep any coffee in the apartment so he's in bed and I figure the place can't open without him.
"I'm guessing you were wrong."
"So wrong. I put on one of his shirts and went down stairs and the diner was full and then Taylor had a meeting about us he had color coded charts and everything in case we break up.
"Sounds like Taylor." Rory said rummaging around in a drawer to find a pop tart.
"Then Luke yelled at him so that was entertaining
"You sound happy."
"I am kid really happy."
"I'm happy for you mom really."
"Are you eating a poptart?" Lorelai asked hearing the crinkle
"Yep. Have some work to do already finished my piece for the paper then I think it's time for a name.
"Well good talk kid see you on Friday."
"yep I'll be there Colin in tow." She promised ending the call and falling into her work and then into a nap. She woke up and went into the common room to find nothing changed. "Nope I'm out of here. Paris clean this place." Rory shouted.
"I'm getting around to it." Paris shouted back "Terrence is on me about my dream journal."
"Well isn't that just pleasant." Rory muttered to herself leaving the room.
She was sitting on a bench minding her own business when Stephanie found her. "Hey what are you doing?"
"Ignoring my roommate." Rory said looking up from the book she was reading.
"Oh well that sounds fun and all I'm going to the pub care to join me?
"Sure." Rory shrugged gathering her things and following Stephanie to the local hang out.
"Hey look who I found." Stephanie said sliding into the booth with the guys. "She was hiding."
"From who?" Colin asked.
"Paris."
"Still didn't clean the room." Logan asked
"That would be a negative."
"That Paris." Finn shook his head.
"you only briefly met her yesterday."
"I wanted to be part of the conversation.
"Okay." Rory snorted "I'm going to get something to drink be right back.
"I don't think so." Logan said standing up "I'll get you whatever you need.
"Okay." Rory shrugged knowing it wasn't worth the hassle. Pepsi please.
"Coming up." Five minuets and a long line later Logan was back sliding the drink in front of her
"Thanks" she said taking a sip.
She laughed and joked and enjoyed her time with the group much to her surprise and she didn't even mid that when she came back later that night Paris hadn't even cleaned the room she just went to her room and shut her door. This year was turning out to be interesting.
