Alive.

Logan couldn't sleep, he wasn't tired. Everyone had gone to bed an hour ago, it was now 1:30. He made his way to the kitchen to grab a bottle of water and was about to head back to his room when he noticed the light on over the back patio. They must have forget to turn it off when they got out of the hot tub. He was about flick the light off when he noticed Rory sat by the edge of the pool dangling her feet in the water. He opened the door, she jumped a little but turned and smiled at him

"Hey"

"Hey Ace, What are you still doing up?"

She smiled innocently at him "I had 5 coffees!"

He shook his head and took a sat down beside her "That's going to kill you before you turn 20"

"At least I will die happy but no matter how much coffee I drink I don't think I will die before October"

"I don't know I mean it is 7 months" he teased

She rolled her eyes "Well fine, if coffee is going to kill me then alcohol is going to kill you"

"It will kill Finn first"

She laughed "Good point" she paused for a moment "So why are you still up?"

He shrugged "Not tired"

"Ah, I see the ever so fun playboy never gets tired until at least 2 am" she teased playfully

"See Ace, you know me so well" he said in a equally playful tone.

There was a few moments of silence before Rory spoke.

"This house is beautiful"

"It is"

"Do you guys come here much?"

"Not a lot. We come up a few times a year. The only people who really come here is Colins brother, Chris and his fiancé."

She nodded her head in understanding "So, Sorry I slapped you earlier"

He laughed "Don't worry about it"

"I didn't mean to it kind of just happened before I could stop it"

"It's fine. You're not the first girl who's slapped me for touching her inappropriately"

She raised a eyebrow at him "I don't really see the kind of girls you date pushing you away"

"Well I'm not saying it's happened a lot, but it has happened"

"Do any of those girls have names?"

"Yes"

"What are they?"

He grinned "I have no idea"

"Right, I should have known"

"Rosemary slapped me once for kissing her though. Then Finn punched me. Everyone was pretty drunk that night. Finn apologized the next day." he watched a smile form on her face and she let out a small laugh.

"Finn apologized?" she questioned

"Yes, I know shocking"

"I wish I saw that, I would love to see Finn punch you. Hey do you think if I ask him he would do it again?" she teased

"That's not nice, Rory. Say your sorry" he said disapprovingly as he moved closer and put a hand on each side of her waist.

"Logan what are you doing?" she tried to move out of his grasp but he just tightened it, not willing to let her go.

"Say your Sorry"

"Never!"

An evil grin appeared on his face as his hands began to tickle her. She quickly fell back into the grass and he leaned over her, continuing to tickle her. He continued to tickle her for a few moments as she rolled and squirmed trying to get away when she finally gave in.

"Logan! Stop! Please Stop! I'm Sorry!"

He stopped tickling her and looked down at her grin still present on his face "Now see was that so hard?"

He continued to watch her, her face flustered, her blue eyes looking up at him and her chest moving up and down a little more then usual. He couldn't help but smile, she was beautiful, just lying there in the grass in her pajamas bottoms and Yale sweater while trying to recapture her breath. He couldn't handle the temptation any longer so he did the one thing that he had wanted to do since he had realized his feelings for her, he slowly leaned down and kissed her. She seemed a little startled at first but returned the kiss. He slid one arm completely around her waist while the other one went to her hair and her arms went around his neck. When he knew she wasn't going to push him away he gently ran his tongue over her lips asking for entrance. He felt her lips separate and he darted his tongue into her mouth as she let out a light whimper. Their tongues battled for a few minutes until the lack of oxygen became a problem and they had to pull apart.

He watched her as she slowly opened her eyes. He watched a panicked look came over her face, he wasn't surprised he knew she was probably freaking out inside her head. When he felt her try to get up he moved away and sat down beside her. She quickly got to her feet

"So…um…I…Im going to head to bed" she stammered while making her way to the patio door. When she reached it she turned to him again and softly spoke his name

"Logan"

"Yeah Ace"

"Could you not mention this to anyone?"

He nodded his head "Sure Ace, Night" he watched as she shut the door on the patio and disappeared out of his sight. He understood that she wanted it to stay between them, she was a private person and while it was only one kiss she didn't want everyone to know about it until she was ready to deal with it herself. He ran his hand through his hair and grabbed his bottle of water while letting out a little laugh 'Damn who knew Rory could kiss like that'. He stood up and made his way inside, shutting out the lights and making his way upstairs.

……………………………………………………………………..

Logan had made it to the top of the stairs when he saw Finn stumble out of Rosemarys room with a dopey grin on his face.

"Logan, mate how are you?"

"I'm good buddy, how are you?" Logan asked although he was pretty sure he already knew the answer to the question

"I have never been better. I hope we didn't wake dear Rory up with our late night activities" He said grin now fully in place, while taking a quick glance at Rorys room door.

Logans thoughts once again drifted back to the girl who he had been kissing not 15 minutes ago "I don't think you woke her Finn, if you did she would be out here yelling at you but the girl sleeps like a rock" remembering the few times he had seen her fall asleep.

"I don't know mate, we were quite vocal tonight"

"I didn't need to know that Finn" Logan replied as he made a face.

"And why not?" Finn gasped in mock horror "You have no problem when I tell you the details of my sex life with other girls"

"That's because other girls aren't one of my closest friends"

He nodded "What are you doing up at-" Finn paused and looked down at his watch "2:10"

Logan quickly raised his bottle of water "Got thirsty" hoping Finn wouldn't realize that he was still wearing the same clothes as before because he would surely get questioned that as to why he wasn't in boxers and not jeans and t shirt, thankfully Finn didn't notice and he just nodded his head

"Well night Finn" Logan said has he made his way to his door.

"Night mate" Finn said as he disappeared into his own room.

Thanks so much for all the reviews, I appreciate it very much and I love you all!

I have several ideas on where I would like to go with this story but I want something more original, so if you have any ideas please let me know!

I had no plans to update this story until the weekend, but well I skipped my morning classes today and headed to the library so I could study in peace for my test I had after lunch but instead I ended up grabbing some paper from my binder and writing this.

Don't expect any updates until at least Saturday, I have two tests this week in the two classes im failing and I want to do good on them so when I go into the final theres less pressure. Who knows though maybe if someone can convince me to update I will

REVIEW PLEASE…it makes me very happy and gives me inspiration to update, questions, comments, ideas and suggestions are always welcome!
