Here is the second chapter, hope you enjoy it!
A couple days go by after the memorial service and suddenly it is Monday again, and Rory has to go back to work. She had spent the whole weekend thinking about the kiss between her and Logan, it wasn't like this was the first time that they had kissed since they broke up, but it was the first time they had kissed since they had both moved back. Rory knew she was going to have to talk to her mom about it but she wanted to talk to Lane first, as a practice run, but she had to get through her work day first.
Rory had always dreamt of being a foreign correspondent, and for a while she had been living that dream. Working for Hugo on the campaign trail had been a good start, after that Rory went to work for the New York Post and worked as a foreign correspondent, she got to travel all over the world and write about what she saw happening and she loved it, until she realized that she missed her family and that it was not what she wanted to be doing for the rest of her life. All of this mad the decision to move home when her grandfather got sick an easy one, she came back and started working at the Stars Hollow Gazette.
"Hey Suzette, anything good going on today?" Rory asks the office assistant as she walks by, knowing that Suzette would tell her anything that could be deemed newsworthy.
"Not today, the town meeting isn't until tomorrow, but the day is still young"
"Maybe Kirk will do something we can use as filler before the end of the day" Rory laughs as she sits down at her desk, trying to take her mind off of Logan yet again.
Across town at the diner Lorelai Gilmore sits at the counter eating her lunch and talking to her husband.
"I don't know what is up with her Luke, but I can tell something is definitely going on."
"She is an adult Lorelai, you know that you can't make her talk to you, just be patient and wait until she is ready to talk about it." Luke tells her, knowing that his wife has the tendency to overreact and get a little too pushy, especially when it came to her daughter.
"Yea, I know that but it has just been hard since Dad died, and I hate not knowing what it going on, and it is all just kind of piling up" she sighs.
"I know it is hard, but that it the way life is sometimes, don't worry things will get better." He tells his wife and starts clearing her empty dishes.
"Thanks Luke, I have to get back to the Dragonfly now, I'll see you at home later." Lorelai says as she gets up and heads towards the door.
"I know you're not happy, but you know I am right and I love you!" he calls after her, hearing a faint 'love you to' over the chime of the bells as the door closes behind her.
After a very long, very uneventful day Rory leaves the Gazette and heads over to Weston's Bakery to meet Lane for coffee and pie.
"Please tell me that your day was better than mine" Rory says while she pulls out the chair across from her best friend.
"Not really, just more of the same old, same old. Though we do think we might do a small tour this summer." Lane tells her.
"That sounds awesome Lane! Your boys would love it." Rory says, as her phone goes off alerting her to a new text message.
"It was good to see you the other day, I'm gonna be in Hartford this weekend, wanna get together?" Rory looks at the text, blushes and puts the phone back in her bag.
"Who was that, that has you blushing?" Lane asks her, smiling.
"No one." Rory replies quickly, turning towards her pie.
"Well it must be a guy," Lane says knowingly, "Last time I saw you like this over a guy was when you were with," she drops off knowing exactly who messaged Rory.
"Logan, yea I know. We kissed the other night at Grandpa's memorial, and now he wants to go out this weekend."
"What are you going to do?"
'Honestly I have no clue, normally I would ask my mom but you know how she gets about Logan so I haven't even told her that we kissed."
Hours later, as Rory is climbing into her bed she replies to the message from earlier.
"Sure, how bout after Friday night dinner?" she hits send, turns off her light and drifts off dreamland.
