Once the door closed on Logan Emily, Richard, Lorelei and Luke descended on Rory.
They all started taking at once:
Lorelei:" What did you talk about?"
Luke: "Are you two back together?"
Emily: "Are you finally getting married?"
Richard: "Logan Huntzberger is a fine young man. I'm glad you worked things out."
Rory rolled her eyes at them and looked in all of their faces seeing shock, wonder, happiness, and awe, in their eyes. "He is picking me up tomorrow to talk. I am tired and my feet hurt. I am going to bed! I do not wish to talk about this tonight. And Grandma, you and I will need to discuss your omission of certain facts tonight!" With that she went upstairs to her room. She was staying with her Grandparents this visit. Christmas was tomorrow and they would be back here early anyway. Not to mention her mom and Luke were staying here as well tonight.
All Rory wanted to do was get to her room so she could think about the evening. She did not need a pro/ con for this. She knew without a shadow of a doubt that if there was even the slightest chance that she could have Logan back in her life she was going to do everything in her power to make it happen.
Once they heard her door slam…
"Well! Exclaimed Emily, I never! Lorelei your daughter is so rude! I had to shuffle my entire seating chart at dinner so that those two could sit together and this is all the explanation we get!? Not even a thank you! Are they back together or aren't they? Does she know Christmas is tomorrow! I swear Lorelei, your daughter is so exhausting sometimes!"
"Mom! Shouted Lorelei, you set this up with Honor. Your seating chart should have had a contingency plan for a reconciliation. Let them be. They will work it out on their own! Rory and Logan need to take time and work this through without our interference and I don't think Rory has thought much about Christmas or any Holiday for the last two years! Let's go up to bed Luke. We will see you in the Morning Mom. Dad, goodnight!"
Once in their room Luke took Lorelei in his arms and whispered…."Are you okay?" Lorelei hugged him back and said "I hope they can work this out. I haven't seen her smile in over two years. I just don't know if Honor and my mother did a good thing or not. I don't want him to hurt her again." Luke just held her and said laughingly…"And you were worried that our news would cause the gossip tonight." Luke, let's just go to bed.
Richard looked at Emily and said. "Emily, I think it time we retire too. The next few weeks could get very busy." Emily yelled some last minute instructions to the clean-up crew and her maid, then stomped up to their room.
Meanwhile, Logan got in his car and drove off. He did not want to leave. He felt like was repeating history. He was walking away and they had so many unresolved issues they needed to discuss. He felt like he was having trouble breathing again. What was he going to do? If Rory still loved him he had to work this out with her. They had to resolve the problems between them! He needed her in his life. He has wanted nothing as much as he has wanted her.
He picked up his phone and started to dial. Honor would probably know where she was staying. She picked up on the first ring. "Honor, where is"…He didn't get to finish his sentence. "Rory is staying at her grandparents tonight. Good luck! Call me tomorrow, but not too early. Merry Christmas, baby brother." Then she was gone. Logan chuckled and threw his phone on the passenger seat as he did a u- turn in the middle of the road.
