A Twisted Parent Trap

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN GILMORE GIRLS, PERIOD.

Chapter 7:

That Saturday, it is Parents weekend as the big Harvard softball game. Rory, Lorelai, Luke, and the children are on campus. "This place still looks daunting mom". Catherine said to Rory.

Rory looks at Catherine as she nods to her. "Yeah it does have effect". Rory said to Catherine. The family is wearing navy blue shirts with jeans and a special button to support LJ. "Should we make our way to the softball stadium"? Luke asks them.

Rory nods as she looks a bit nervous as she does not know if she will come across Logan or the other Huntzburgers here besides Isabelle and Francois. "Yes", Rory said to them.

As they make their way to the softball stadium, they gotten their seats as they look out on the ball diamond. "Mom, is there a concession stand or something"? Oliver asks Rory as he is getting hungry.

Rory nods as she looks at him. "Yeah I will go see what they have and be back in time for the first pitch". Rory said to them. She leaves from her seat as she went towards the concession stand.

At the concession stand, Rory is looking at the various choices. "Rory, I did not expect you to be here". A guy said to Rory.

To Rory, there is no denying who it is. She turns around and sees Logan Huntzburger. "Hello Logan, yes I am a parent and enjoying parents weekend". Rory said to Logan.

Logan looks at Rory as he is wondering how she could be a parent. "Don't you have four children under the age 18 with your late husband". Logan said to Rory as he does not know that she has one more child.

Rory frowns at Logan as she is dismayed by him. "Actually I have five children. My eldest daughter attends Yale, she is on the softball team". Rory said to Logan.

Logan looks at Rory as he is trying to think back to when they were together last. "Hold on softball, I though you Gilmore Girls does do anything athletic unless it is shopping". Logan said to Rory as this is a huge shocker for him.

Rory nods as she looks at him. "That maybe true, but she has the athleticism from the father. We call it the father gift". Rory said to Logan.

Logan looks at Rory as he is wondering if she gotten pregnant by someone else or him. "Someone must have gotten you pregnant for it to happen right". Logan said to Rory. He remembered being told by Odette that Rory had a miscarriage years ago as the reason why she did not attend the wedding.

Rory frowns as she glares at him. "Yes someone did get me pregnant back then. However some men like this particular person choose to sign the rights away of my daughter. It is a cowardly move. If you mind excusing me, I have to get back to my kids". Rory said to Logan as she grabs the snacks and leaves the stand.

Logan has a baffled look on his face. 'Why do I get the feeling that she is trying to tell me something'? Logan thought to himself as Isabelle shows up.

"Dad, I am glad that you can make it to the game". Isabelle said to Logan.

Logan smiles at Isabelle as he nods to her. "Yes do you know someone on a team that I should be aware of"? Logan asks Isabelle.

Isabelle nods to Logan as she knows she who it is. "Yeah my roommate, she is on the team. Plus we have a great sisterly relationship. It is like it's fate that brought us together". Isabelle said to Logan.

Logan nods as he is wondering if someone knows something big that he is not aware of. "Who is it"? Logan asks Isabelle.

Isabelle looks at her Dad as they make their way to the stadium. "Her name is LJ, LJ Abbott". Isabelle said to Logan.

Logan looks at his daughter as he notices Rory and her group of people. "Does the L stand for Lorelai"? Logan asks Isabelle.

Isabelle shakes her head to her father. "No actually it is one of her younger sisters who is named Lorelai". Isabelle said to Logan.

As the game is getting started, Logan is wondering what is with the hints being laid on him today. The second person up at bat is LJ. "That's her dad, that's my roommate, LJ". Isabelle said to Logan.

As Logan looks at the picture of her on the billboard, he notices that she looks mostly like Rory. However she has brown eyes instead of the Gilmore Girl trademark blue eyes. 'Does her eyes come from an ex boyfriend of hers or me'? Logan thought to himself.

As the count is 2-1 with a runner on second, LJ hits the ball with force. It went to deep center field as it went over the wall for a home run.

Logan is impressed by the play. "She is really good". Logan said to Isabelle. He could not help but wonder about her. He looks at Rory and her group of people. They are cheering for her as she makes it back to home plate.

Isabelle nods to her dad. "She is dad". Isabelle said to Logan. She has that proud roommate and sister look in her eyes.

Logan nods as he is wondering how she does know about her.

As the game is over, Yale wins the game 7 to 4 over Harvard. Rory notices that Logan stayed for the entire game. Lorelai looks at the guy. "Woah Logan stayed for the entire game"? Lorelai asks Rory.

Rory looks at her mom as she nods to her. "Yeah I got a lot to tell you". Rory said to her mother.

Lorelai notice the urgency in Rory's eyes. Plus she sees that something is bothering her. "Ok", Lorelai said to Rory.

Rory nods as Luke is keeping an eye on the grandkids. Lorelai and Rory went towards a tree as they talk. "Apparently LJ's roommate and her twin brother are Logan and Odette's kids. Plus they found a binder filled with everything about LJ including accomplishments made by Mitchum himself". Rory said to Lorelai.

Lorelai is taken back by this as she is hearing it right. "Mitchum as in class A villain of a super hero movie that Mitchum has made a binder filled everything about LJ. That does not make sense to me especially with his evil track record". Lorelai said to Rory.

Rory nods as she has the biggest bombshell. "That's not all mom, when I talk to Logan earlier, he look like he completely did not know about LJ at all. It is like he was completely baffled and did not know". Rory said to Lorelai.

Lorelai looks at Rory as she is skeptical of it. "Hold on though, he could have known about it when he signed the termination of his parental rights and sent them to you. Plus you were not going to tell him until you knew what the gender of the baby is revealed right". Lorelai said to Rory.

Rory nods to her mother as something is up. "Something it stinks, and it is not the fish of the situation". Rory said to Lorelai.

Lorelai nods to Rory in agreement. "I would say we a got a rotten rat called Huntzburger". Lorelai said to Rory.

Later on, Odette and Francois spots Logan and Isabelle as they are near an academic building. Logan just got off the phone with Colin, Finn, and Robert. "I take it that the game turned out well". Odette said to Logan and Isabelle.

Logan nods to Odette as he is wondering what Rory was trying to tell him. "Yes Yale won the game". Logan said to Odette.

Odette nods as she looks at them. "That's nice, we should get to one of the lectures". Odette said to Logan.

Logan looks at his wife as he has a meeting to get to. "Actually I have to meet up with some old friends". Logan said to them.

Odette looks at Logan as she is hearing it. "What now in the middle of parents weekend"? Odette said to Logan.

Logan looks at Odette as he nods to her. "Yes, I am going to be about an hour or two". Logan said to them.

As Logan leaves, the kids looks at each other as they were not expecting their dad to go off like that. Odette takes the kids to the lectures.

At a pub, Logan is feeling nostalgic as he went into the building where he met up with his friends.

"Logan, it is good to see you". Colin said to Logan.

"Yeah mate, it has been at least two years since we last saw you". Finn said to Logan.

Ever since Logan married Odette, the guys rarely got together. It was once a year if they were lucky. Colin married Stephanie. However Finn is still Finn and has not gotten married. Robert is still single living the forever a bachelor life style.

Logan nods as he looks at them as he wants to know something. He sits down with them. "Have you guys spoken or seen Rory since New Hampshire or at her wedding years ago"? Logan asks them.

The guys look at each other as Logan has spoken about Rory. "Rory, reporter girl, the kitten, our Wendy to our Peter Pan, we last saw her at her wedding mate. Plus she looked very happy and in love with Donovan Abbott". Robert said to Logan.

Colin nods to Logan as he sees that something is up. "What's going on"? Colin asks Logan.

Finn nods in agreement with Colin. "Yeah we were really worried when you and the wife didn't show up at the wedding. I mean the Huntzburgers never get the invitation or ticket but you guys got in to the event". Finn said to Logan.

Logan nods as he does remember the wedding and being held up by security. "What really got me is the security at the wedding did not let us in. Odette and I tried to get in to the wedding, and that resulted with us being thrown in jail for 72 hours. It is like someone hired the secret service of security guards". Logan said to them.

The guys nod as they are wondering what brings up Rory now almost two decades later. "What's going on"? Robert asks Logan.

Logan looks at them as he explains it to them. "Well I saw Rory at the Harvard Yale Softball Game. Plus she brought her parents and her kids. What I did not realize that she has a fifth child who is actually the eldest daughter who attends Yale and on the softball team. Plus when I talked to her, she was not happy to see me. In fact, she was trying to tell me something". Logan said to them.

The guys are intrigued by it as they did not knew about it either. "Woah, woah wait a minute, what kind of stuff she told you"? Colin asks Logan.

Logan looks at them as he explains it fully. "She told me that some guys like this particular guy did signed his parental rights terminated like a coward. She told me that she did got pregnant almost two decades ago with her eldest daughter". Logan said to them.

Colin, Finn, and Robert are stunned by the news as they did not know either. "Do you know if you are the father"? Finn asks Logan.

Logan shakes his head as he does not know. "I don't know Finn. Plus when Odette and I were getting RSVPs to our wedding, we gotten one from Rory, but she declined to come. What really bothered me is what Odette and my mom told me is that she had a miscarriage from a pregnancy from the result of a one night stand. I did not ask them anything more about it. However recently, we had the monthly family dinner. Odette and my mom gotten really weird and bothered by talks about Isabelle's roommate LJ Abbott and Rory. It makes me wonder if I am in the dark about something really important, and who really lied to me for almost two decades". Logan said to them.

The guys look at each other as they turn to Logan. "If we know Rory, she wouldn't lie to you. Plus she always has her reasons for stuff as well". Robert said to Logan.

Logan nods as he thinking back to that moment in New Hampshire. "Yeah although, I should have seen her expressions on her face when she parted ways from us on that day. I don't remember if she was glowing or not, but she looks like she had something within her". Logan said to them.

The guys look at each other as they are stunned by it. "Look, if someone did in fact lie to you, you should look into it. I want to help as well". Colin said to Logan.

Finn nods to Logan in agreement. "Yeah we should have been the cool uncles to the eldest daughter for almost two decades". Finn said to Logan as Robert agrees with him.

Logan nods as he looks at them. As he spends time with them, Logan is wondering who was lying and what kind of truth that someone is hiding from him.
