Chapter 7
A/N: Thank you for your reviews, I only have one more chapter written so I need some suggestions if anyone has any. I am glad you guys don't hate me because of the whole Jess incident. I was just tired of the same ways everyone was getting Rory and Logan back together, plus I decided to add a baby. Who doesn't love a baby?
Scene opens with Logan and Lorelei sitting in Lorelei's kitchen.
"I guess this means we will have to move."
"Yeah, I guess daddy will have to rent you a new apartment."
"I don't want another apartment; I am going to buy us a house. Do you mind if we stay here while we pick one? I can't let Rory go back to the apartment."
"Logan why did you come back? Don't get me wrong I am so glad you got there when you did, I don't even want to think about what would have happened if you wouldn't have. He could have killed her. But why are you here?"
"Rory and I broke up; I thought it would be good for us to try and meet new people, boy was I stupid. I came back to propose to her, I want to marry Rory, I love her and I need her in my life. I can't live without her; I don't want a future if she isn't in it." Just as he finished talking he felt an arm around his neck, he turned to see Rory. "I love you too Logan." She leaned down and kissed his head.
"Is it ok if I talk now? I can't sleep until I get all this out."
"We are here for you sweetie." Lorelei squeezes her daughter's hand.
"Ok here it goes, please pay attention, I don't want to have to do this more than once, and save your questions until I am finished." Lorelei and Logan both agreed.
"Ok, she looks at Lorelei, remember a few days ago when we were at Westin's having coffee and cake? Well when you left Jess sat down and I was happy to see him, he told me he was visiting with Liz, she had her baby. And he asked me about Logan and I told him that we broke up and he said he was there for me if I needed him and gave me his cell phone number. Then Saturday when I was packing to go back to school he stopped by and said he was leaving on Monday to go back to Philadelphia. I wanted to see him, to spend time with him, just as friends. So I invited him to the apartment to watch movies and hang out and he was going to leave Monday to go back. Well we got movies and were going to order takeout and he kissed me. I pulled back and he kissed me again and I kissed him back." Logan could feel his heart breaking at the thought of her kissing Jess.
"I noticed that it wasn't like with you, she looks at Logan, it was rough and needy and I didn't like it. It wasn't you and I only want you. So I pushed him off and told him that I still loved you. Then he got pissed and went on about me getting hurt and running to him every time. He knew about Dean. He told me that I was Dean's whore on the side since he was still married. He even knew about the night you came in through my window at Yale, the first time we had sex. He told me that I turned into your little slut. I couldn't believe he was saying all this and wondering how he knew all of this. He said that he had been watching me all the time. He was so mean and rough with me." Rory starts to cry as she tells them how he hit her and told her that he was going to fuck her like he wanted to since he met her." Logan stopped her before she went into anymore detail about what happened.
"Rory, I love you. I can't sit here and listen anymore. I know you want us to know everything but I saw what happened. I know it wasn't your fault; you just needed a friend and turned to Jess who was a loyal friend in the past. Everything is going to be ok. We are going to stay here for a while and buy a house. I will get the professors at Yale to email you your assignments until you are ready to go back to school. Everything will be ok."
"I love you Logan, I am so sorry, I put us, she put her hand on her stomach, at risk" Lorelei gave her daughter a confused look. "Mom, I found out that we, she squeezed Logan's hand, are pregnant." Lorelei just stared at the young couple in shock. She got up from the table and said "Well that's enough excitement for an entire month. Lets get some sleep shall we."
"Mom, did you hear me? I am pregnant; around 7 weeks give or take a few days. Logan and I are having a baby; you are going to be a grandmother."
"I heard you Rory, I love you and Logan, I am just still processing. I am happy if you are happy." "I am happy as I can be considering."
Logan and Rory showered and went to bed, the sun was starting to come up and they were exhausted. She laid her head on his chest and he pulled her close and kissed her head. They fell asleep. They had long days ahead of them.
When Logan woke up the bed was empty. He got up to search for Rory, he found her in the shower, and she was sitting in the bathtub, the water steaming hot. She was just sitting there under the spray with her head in her hands. Logan felt the water and quickly turned it off. It was way to hot to shower in. Her skin was very red. "Rory, are you ok?"
"Just go away, I need to get all of this off of me, all of the feeling of being dirty and his scent. I can't stand it!"
"Oh Rory." Logan picks her up out of the bathtub. "You aren't dirty, you did nothing wrong, and you just think you smell him. Everything will be ok I promise. I know its tough but you have more than yourself to take care of. You have to think about the baby too. And I don't know for sure but sitting in extremely hot water probably isn't a good idea for either of you." Logan carried Rory back to the bedroom and helped her get dressed. They went to the police station and gave their statements. Rory said she wanted to press charges and do whatever it took to put Jess in jail.
They lived with Lorelei for 3 weeks while they found a house and moved everything out of the apartment. The house was perfect, not too big and definitely not too small after all Logan was a Huntzberger. It was in New Haven so Rory could go back to college when she was ready and Logan was working at a paper his family had acquired. The house was 2 story, light blue with a white porch that wrapped around the 2nd story. It was beautiful. They had their bedroom with an attached bathroom that lead into another small room that they were going to use for the baby's room until it was old enough to have its own room.
Rory was starting to get a bump where the baby was growing inside of her. Logan loved to rub her stomach while they were going to sleep. This made Rory happy. He is going to be a great father, not at all like his father. Mitchum hadn't been able to talk Logan into going back to London. 6 weeks after the incident the trial started, Rory and Logan both had to tell what happened and it was a long week. The trial ended and Jess was sentenced to 4 years in jail and 2 years probation. He is never to go near Rory or their family again. Logan would see to that.
