Life Changes in a Second

Ch. 7 Stars Hallow

Author's Note: Thank you so much for the reviews and alerts. This chapter has sensitive material. This is a story and none of this is true. I don't have any issues with Iraq and I'm sure there are true stories but this isn't one them it's just the place I picked. Chapter eight is called Rory's secret. And chapter nine will have the first sex scene. Sorry the chapters are short right now I'm planning for this to be 34 chapters.

Once again thank you and enjoy.

(Rory's point of view)

It was early when Mom woke me up. "Ror, did you forget to tell Mommy something?" She asked. I shot up and bed and asked. "Shit, is Logan here already?" She laughed and answered. "Yes he and his cute little buddle of joy just got here." "Sorry Mom I just blanked out." I said as I picked out clothes. "It's okay just get dressed." Mom said.

I hurried and got dress. I had decided to wear jeans, a tank top, and I threw my hair up in a pony tail. When I got into the Living Room Logan was waiting with a huge smile on his face. "Are we too early?" Logan asked. "It's never too early for a cute baby visit." Mom answered. She sat down and motioned for Logan to give her Austin. Austin was lying against the huge bump in my Mom's stomach. "Austin, Luke Jr. wants to play." Mom said. I could see the baby kicking her.

"Luke Jr.?" Logan asked surprised. "Mom Luke told you to stop calling him that." I said. "So his name isn't Luke Jr.?" Logan questioned. "No it's William after Luke's Dad." I responded. He smiled and asked. "What's on the schedule for today?" I laughed and said. "You know me so well." "Yes I do so what's the plan?" He asked.

"First we're going to have breakfast at Luke's. Then I'm supposed to go shopping with Mom and I thought you and Austin could come with us. Then we can have lunch at the Dragon Fly. Then I thought we could come back here and start your part of the interviews." I said quickly. Logan laughed and said. "I've miss you so much." I rolled my eyes but smiled.

We walked to Luke's. I got to hold Austin the entire way. We walked into Luke's. Luke saw us and came over and said. "Hey Logan I didn't know you were coming today." "Yeah, yeah okay people I forgot to tell you." I grumbled making them laugh. "Luke this is my son Austin." Logan said. "Can I hold him?" Luke said. I laughed and handed Austin to him. "Is the future Daddy trying to get in some practice?" I asked.

Miss Patty came in while we were talking. She walked up to Luke and asked. "Whose beautiful child is that?" "He's Logan's." I answered. She smiled at Logan and said. "Oh hello there young man." Logan smirked and said. "Nice to see you again." I rolled my eyes. Miss Patty had forgotten all about breakfast and went to tell everyone the newest gossip. I was sure by the end of the day they would be saying he was mine.

After we ate we left for Hartford to shop. Logan drove. I sat in the back with Austin. We went to the mall. Mom and Logan wore me out. They went into every store. They bought enough clothes for ten babies. Mom also finally found bedding she liked for William's room. I was thrilled when we left the mall. I was tired and hungry.

I fell asleep in the car. "Ace, Ror wake up." Logan whispered. "Huh what don't shoot." I mumbled clearly out of it. "Shit Ace." Logan yelled I was wide awake. I looked at his pale face and asked. "What's wrong Logan?" He's look away starting to look like he might throw up. "What is it Logan?" I asked. "You said don't shoot." He answered. "Damn." I whispered. "Did someone try and shoot you?" Logan asked. I thought about lying to him. I could've told him I was mugged in New York. I knew he would take that better than the truth.

"Yes Logan in Iraq right before we left my photographer and I went outside of where we were supposes to be. We were held at gun point. An Iraqi solider saved us." I told him. "We're you scared?" Logan asked. "Yes I was." I admitted. "You could've died. Damn it Rory." Logan yelled. I noticed we were at the Dragon Fly.

"Where are Mom and Austin?" I asked. "Your Mom took Austin inside. He needed to be changed." Logan answered. "I'm so sorry Logan; I had planned to never tell anyone what happened in Iraq." I said. "Your Mom doesn't know?" Logan asked shocked. "No one does Logan." I answered. "Later you're going to tell me everything that happened." He said. I nodded knowing I wouldn't get out of it. I guessed it was time to put it behind me.

We ate lunch with Sookie. Logan was really quite during lunch. He only talked when someone was talking to him. He wouldn't look me in the eye. I could tell he was still really upset. I wasn't sure how he would take what happened. After lunch Logan, Austin, and I headed back to Mom's. Mom stayed at the Dragon Fly she had a meeting.
