Logan and his son walked into the doctor's office. They would do some more tests and see how much longer they could stave off dialysis. Rory would be there at some point and they would start testing to see if she could give Ace a kidney. Logan, who wasn't a particularly religious man, prayed as they walked through the corridor that this would be good news. It would all be good news.

Ace seemed off. He said he had a good time with Rory. He talked about how weird she was, and how uncomfortable that he thought he made her at first. Eventually they had had a good time though, once they relaxed. He really liked his grandmother Lorelai, but felt weird calling her a grandmother because she had a kid younger than him. His aunt, who was only five, was a total basket case and he thought that was kind of cool. The off was different though, it was a kind of chemical thing Logan couldn't put his finger on it.

"Ace," he asked. "You feeling okay buddy?"

"Yeah, I'm okay," Ace said. He waved his father off. "I'm just a little tired today, is all."

They approached the waiting room and saw that Rory was already sitting there, nose buried in a book. They greeted her quietly. "Rory, thanks for doing this," Logan said.

"Yeah, no problem," Rory said.

Ace sat next to his father and stared into his book. There was something about the way he was staring at it, instead of reading, that made Logan uncomfortable. He put his hand on his son's forehead and asked, "You sure you're alright?"

"I'm fine dad," Ace said. He pushed his father's hand down. "Quit worrying so much."

"You have to tell me," Logan said more sternly than he'd meant. "You know that, right. You have to tell me if somethings wrong."

"Nothing is wrong dad," Ace told him equally as sternly.

They were all surprised when the nurse approached to tell them it was time to take Ace back. All three stood to greet her. The Huntzberger guys seemed to know her pretty well, and made some small talk. Logan allowed Ace to go on ahead with the nurse before turning to Rory.

"I'd like to come back, if that's okay," she said.

"I don't think so," Logan told her. "Not for this. They should be taking you back for your tests in a few minutes though. Don't worry about watching our stuff, it'll be fine here."

"He's my son too," Rory said. "I have a right to find out what's going on."

"No," Logan told her. "No you don't really. One day of babysitting does not give you that right."

"Logan," Rory demanded. "You are being unreasonable. I'm not asking for decision making rights. I just want to hear what the doctor has to say. I deserve to know what his prognosis is."

"You're right," Logan agreed. "You absolutely have that right. And I'll inform you later. Until then, you'll wait in the waiting room."

He walked away before leaving much room for discussion. He did stop on his way thorough the back doors to let a nurse know that he didn't want Rory to be allowed to come into the exam room.

It wasn't even so much that he was stuck on keeping her in her place or boundaries or anything of the like. The issue for him was that this was his son's health, his life, and too many opinions could only be dangerous. He needed to be able to give his sole focus on getting his son well, and Rory would only complicate that.

"How are you both today?" Nurse Colleen asked.

They responded and told her that they were doing pretty well. Colleen watched while one of her interns took some blood from Ace, and she rested a hand on Logan's forearm. "You always take such great care of him, but you're taking care of you too, right?"

"Yeah, I'm easy though." Logan gestured toward his son, "He seem okay to you?"

"I don't know," she thought aloud. "There is something that just doesn't seem right about him.

"I think so too," Logan agreed.

Nurse Colleen walked over to And took his hand in hers. "Ace, honey, are you doing okay. You seem..."

Ace fell back onto the exam table and his body began shaking and convulsing before she could finish the question. "He's having a seizure! Everyone get back!" She demanded.

Once they had Ace settled in the main part of the hospital, and they were running tests that Logan couldn't participate in, he stepped out and asked Nurse Colleen to go find Rory and tell her that they would be here for a while, and that she should just go home after all of her tests were done.

Colleen returned twenty minutes later to let Logan know that all of Rory's tests had been completed and that she had already left by the time she had gone back to find her.

The seizure had been caused by an abrupt change in the level of his blood sugar. There was a certain risk of childhood diabetes being related to it, but for now the doctors had told Logan that it was an isolated incident and not to worry too much about it for now. If it happened again within the next month or so, they would start having Logan test his insulin twice a day and possibly giving him some injections to even things out. They didn't think it would be necessary.

They got everything figured out only a few hours after it all started, and Logan was able to take his son home.
