Chapter 9


Rory and Logan are coming out of a crowded movie theatre. Logan is walking next to Rory and she's talking a mile a minute but he's not really paying attention to her, he's just sort of agreeing and thinking about everythings that's happened. Rory of course notices.

"So the movie was good."Rory states.

"Yeah. Good."

"Yeah." Rory sighs. "Especially the ending where the alien burst thru the screen and bit off Brad Pitt's head and flung it into the audience. Can you believe how slimy it was when we touched it."

"Yeah, slimy."

Rory got mad rolled her eyes and started to walk faster, trying to get away from him. He noticed she wasn't next to him anymore and started to catch up to her.

"Ace, what is it? What's wrong?"

"What's wrong Logan! I can't believe you, ya know if I wanted to be ignored I'd be having dinner with my father's parents."

"Ace, Im sorry really, I am." She didn't stop she just kept on walking.

"If you changed your mind about going out with me you should of just called and said something instead of coming out with me and making me look like an idiot because your only pretending to wanna be with me. You didn't have to lie."

"Ace Im not lying." He grabbed her by the elbow and swung her back towards him, so he could look her in the eye. "I do wanna be with you Rory, only you. I just got a lot in my head right now and Im not sure how to handle it. That's all."

"Well, you could always talk to me, ya know, your girlfriend. I am here for you, you know that right?"

"Yeah I know that."

"So whats going on?"

Logan looked into her eyes and saw how she really was there for him. He knew that if he just told her she could instantly make him feel better. But then it occurred to him, how do you tell your girlfriend you might still have feelings for your ex and she's planning on seducing you and getting you back. Rory will break up with me for sure. But she deserves to know the truth sooner rather than later.

"Rory, I need to tell you whats going on."

"Wow, sounds serious"

"It is."

"Okay here lets grab some coffee at the cafe and we'll talk."

"Yeah, let's"

Rory and Logan walk into the cafe and grab their coffees they sit down at a table and take small sips of their drinks. Logans back is to the door, he is about to tell Rory whats going on when he sees a big smile come across her face and notices she's looking at something. He turns around and see's Caitlin walking in with someone.

"Oh my god what are you two doing here together?" Rory asked the new couple.

"Oh we just came from a movie and decided to grab some coffee." Marty said.

"Marty why dont you grab the coffee and I'll fill Rory and Logan in." Caitlin said.

"Yeah sure."

Logan could't believe it, could this possibly get any worse. The only good thing about this situation was the fact that Caitlin and Marty were on a date. Logan thought hey maybe they fall in love and then there wont be a problem anymore.

"You wanna join us?" Rory asked Caitlin.

Logan was about to say he didn't really want them to, but figured it would sound rude so he bit his tongue.

"Yeah sure thanks." Caitlin replied.

And she sat down next to Logan across from Rory in the booth. Rory found it a little weird she didn't sit next to her but Caitlin was her friend so she didnt think anything past that.

"I didn't know you knew Marty." Rory asked.

"Oh yeah I dropped by your dorm to drop by the notes you let me borrow the other day but you werent there. Marty saw me and he told me that you usually went to the library around that time."

"Ah!! so thats how you found me that other time."

"Yeah sorry to dissapoint. I have absolutely no super powers."

"Anyways, we hit it off and he asked me out. You never told me you had such cute friends I mean first Logan then Marty who else do you have hidden away."

Rory and Caitlin laugh. Logans forces a smile. Marty then came up with his coffee and sat down next to Rory.

Logan wanted to try and keep the conversation as much off him as he could so before anyone could talk he started up a conversation.

"So what movie did you see?"

"Mr and Mrs Smith." Marty replied.

"Oh we saw that too. I didnt see you." Rory said.

"Oh we were in the back." Marty replied.

"It was a really good movie."

"Yeah it was." Caitlin replied "And super sexy too." Caitlin said as she put her hand on Logans thigh causing to jump up a little with surprise nobody noticed except Caitlin and all he could do was take her hand off and shoo it away. But she kept putting it back on. After a couple of minutes of small talk and Caitlin, he'd had enough.

"Allright! Well It was nice seeing you, Marty and Caitlin." Turning to Rory. "Ace what do you say we leave the two lovebirds to finish their date."

"Yeah of course, we've taking a lot of your time."

Rory and Logan said goodbye to them and started walking towards the dorm. Rory had no idea why he was acting so weird, but figured it probably had something to do with his family so she didn't push him on it. Before they knew it they were in front of Rory's door.

Logan turned to Rory.

"Rory, I'm sorry tonight was not how I wanted it to be at all." Rory stopped him and leaned up into him and kissed him softly of the mouth. The kiss was sweet and slow and Logan fell against the door and savored it. After some time they stopped, breathless and needing air, Rory put her forehead against his.

"I know it wasn't perfect, but I loved it, every second of it. Except for the part where we kind of fought. But Logan I like being with you. It doesn't matter what were doing."

"Thanks Ace, me too. But you still have to give me another chance, make it up to you. And take you on a proper date? One where I'm not preoccupied with other things on my mind."

Logan reached for her and they kissed again. Rory pulled away to answer him.

"Okay. Well you talked me into it." Logan laughed "I can't go out tomorrow because of dinner with my grandparents. But im all yours on Saturday. "

"All mine huh?" it was Rory's turn to laugh. "Thats a nice thought."

"Yeah yeah huntzberger."

"Allright saturday Ill pick you up at 7 okay"

"Okay" Logan got up from the wall gave Rory another kiss and watched her go inside.

As he was walking back to his dorm he knew what he had to do. He had to remind Caitlin that it was over. Rory didn't deserve this he wants her in his life and to do that he'd have to make Caitlin understand that he didnt want her. Thats exactly what he was gonna first thing tommorrow morning. Tonight he was gonna go home and take a long cold shower cause god Rory could kiss.
