Chapter 2
Honor's P.O.V.
I went home directly after my appointment. Josh was home already cooking dinner. I gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"You'll never guess who I saw at the Doctor's today" I told Josh as I poured myself a class of water, "Rory Gilmore".
Josh's jaw dropped. "Does this mean she's?" he asked, "Does Logan know? He'll be crushed" he said.
"She's three months along, and I don't think Logan knows, but she and I are having lunch tomorrow." I told my husband. "I was on the phone with Logan when I saw her, I hung up and told him I would call him when I got home, he wants to speak to Emma and Tyler".
"Well, dinner will be ready in an hour so go ahead' he said as he went back to cooking.
"Mommy!" squealed Emma, my 3-year-old daughter as she wrapped her arms around my legs. Quickly after her came my 5-year-old son, Tyler. They rambled on about their days as I smiled at them. All I could think about was my brother, as I looked at my perfect family and how today I saw his happiness disappear before my eyes.
"Hello, my loves" I told them. "How about we go call Uncle Logan?" I suggested.
Their eyes lit up. "YES!" they said.
I took my iPad and dialed Logan so he could video chat with my kids. When he answered, I thanked my kids for not giving me the opportunity to speak to him. I didn't know how to tell him what I recently discovered. I most certainly did not want to be the cause of his recent behavior. I took my phone out and texted Rory the plan for the following day. I was so distracted I didn't hear Tyler calling me
"Mommy, Uncle Logan wants to talk to you!" he told me while he handed me back my iPad.
" Thanks Ty," I said, "how about you and Emma go to the playroom while I talk to your uncle?"
"Okay" they said. "Bye uncle Logan! We miss you!" they said.
Emma blew him a big kiss and went to join her brother.
"They're amazing," he told me, with the slightly sad expression I could sense in his voice earlier that day.
"Those kids are my everything," I told him. "One day you'll have it all, you deserve your chance at happiness." I mentally slapped myself for saying that considering what I knew. I bit my tongue and let him talk, unable to bring myself to tell him. "What's bothering you little brother?"
"Honor," he said, taking a deep breath. "I'm not happy, I'm about to be stuck in a loveless marriage, while I'm still very much in love with someone else."
"Logan, I know you better than anyone," I told him honestly. "The past few months you've been so unhappy it's been painful for me to see you self destruct like this. I hear it in your voice and I see it in your eyes."
Through his webcam, I saw him holding back his tears. I knew something wasn't right. I decided not to bring up that I saw Rory earlier that day not wanting to cause him more pain.
"I know I can't keep pushing off this wedding Hon," he said "I just don't love Odette, but the dynastic plan"
"Logan, what happened?" I asked. "You were much better a few months ago, I thought you were finally moving on from your affair with Rory." I added "It has to end Log, it wasn't fair-".
Logan interrupted me "Honor, stop for a second, and listen to me" he told me with a serious tone.
I paused, I knew what he was about to tell me was important, it seemed that it was something he kept in for a while.
"I didn't like how Rory and I left things, so three months ago when I was in Connecticut, after you came home from the Unicef Gala with Josh, I left to go to Stars Hollow with Finn, Colin and Robert." He said. "They helped me give Rory a final goodbye." as he said that a tear rolled down his cheek.
"There's more, isn't there?" I said, "Continue"
"Yeah, Rory and I slept together," he said in tears, "We really said goodbye, this was it Honor, It's been hard, I don't think I can live without her"
I stared at the screen absolutely flabbergasted. The events of today raced through my mind.
how far along are you?
Three months, you?
Rory was three months pregnant, she was pregnant with his child and he did not know. I took a deep breath. It wasn't my place to tell him. I would wait until tomorrow to speak to Rory before I made any decisions.
"I want everything you have and more, Sis." he said. "I want it all with Rory" and at that moment I saw a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
"Honor!" Josh called. "Dinner!"
I gave my brother a warm smile. "You're going to have it all, just trust me" I told him. "I have to go, but we'll talk soon"
"Thanks for listening Honor, Love you, and say Congratulations to Josh from me" he said
"I will, and love you too." I told him and hung up. I took a deep breath and went to the dining room.
