Logan Huntzberger handled the envelope that was delivered to his apartment again. He ran his fingers over the familiar scrawl of his name and took a deep breath.
He'd had the letter in his possession for three days now and yet for those three days the letter sat, still unopened. He wanted to open it, he did, but he was still unsure if he was ready to. He wasn't over her, that he knew and he wasn't sure what the letter contained and that scared him. It had been just about a month since he walked away from her at her graduation and he still considered that the biggest mistake of this life. Bigger than losing millions in that stupid business deal gone bust, he'd lost the only girl he'd ever truly loved.
Logan lost count of the times he'd picked up his phone and dialed the familiar numbers only to chicken out before he made it all the way through.
I wouldn't forgive me if I were her, he thought to himself on more than one occasion, why should I ask her to?
He picked up the letter again, this time preparing to open it and stop this torture, only this time he was stopped by the ringing of his phone.
"Hello?" He asked gruffly, not really in the mood to deal with anything or anyone right now.
"Hey, that is no way to greet your favorite only sister." Honor's voice answered and he immediately softened.
"Hey sis."
"So, I've got some pretty big news for you little brother."
"Yeah, what's that Honor?" Honor always knew how to intrigue him.
"Well, you have about seven months to prepare yourself to be an uncle." Honor's voice held so much excitement and happiness that it spilled over to Logan, really without his knowledge.
"Honor, wow that's great, I'm so happy for you!"
"Thanks Log, we just found out today officially. Josh and I are thrilled."
"I'll bet, tell him congratulations for me," Logan smiled and his mood was brightened despite himself. "So, have you told mom and dad yet?"
"Nope, but we are supposed to have dinner there tomorrow so I guess it'll come up then." Honor paused before going on, although she switched subjects. "So, Rory called me last week."
Logan's mind started rolling at that comment, though he tried to play calm. It all makes sense now though, that is how she got my address, that's how I have this letter.
"Oh really?" This was his attempt to play if off like it didn't matter, like it didn't make his heartbeat race.
"Yup, she asked for your address, told me she was going to be sending you a letter."
"Hum, I got the letter. Actually, I got it a couple days ago."
"And…Logan, well what did it say?" Honor paused and when Logan didn't offer any information she started talking again. "Are you going to finally come to your senses and talk to her? Are you going to fight for her?"
Logan was overwhelmed by his sister's questions. He knew that they had always gotten along, but he didn't realize that Honor would side with her.
"I haven't read it yet."
"Logan…" Honor sighed, her aggravation evident in her voice.
"I'll get around to it eventually."
"Don't wait too long bro."
"I won't, I promise. Hey sis, I gotta go, congratulations again."
"Thanks Logan, bye."
The conversation ended and Logan picked up the letter again.
Here goes nothing, he thought and he tore the envelope open. I hope I'm ready for this.

"No way! I can't believe this, look at this place." Lorelai gushed openly as they walked around Rory's new condo.
"I know. Grandpa and Grandma weren't kidding when they said I wouldn't have anything to worry about," Rory answered equally floored.
They had been in San Francisco for just over and hour and already Rory was falling in love with the city. Her condo was beautiful, spacious, and perfect. It had a great view of downtown and she could see the Chronicle's office from her window. She knew she could easily get used to living here.
"I can honestly say that at this moment in time I'm so glad my grandparent's have money"
"Amen sister. This place rocks." Mother and daughter stood in the center of the main room, unable to stop gawking; not noticing all the work Luke was doing trying to get their luggage inside.
"Um, girls, a little help here would be great please," came Luke's plea. They turned to him and burst out laughing. He was trying to carry all six of their bags at once and was failing miserably. They went to help him out.
"Thanks," he muttered finally making his way in the door. "Wow, would you look at this place?"
"We have been. Isn't this amazing?" Rory asked twirling around.
"Yea, amazing could easily be the word that works. It makes it easier that they shipped all the furniture yesterday and had someone set it up for us. We don't have any work to do now."
Lorelai giggled at Luke's comment, he always was the sensible one in their relationship.
"I know. Thanks again for coming out with me guys." Rory hadn't stopped thanking them since they had told her about their plans.
"You can stop thanking us hon, okay. So, what do you want to do now?"
Rory quickly answered, "Food! We haven't ate in hours and I'm starving. My stomach is starting to eat itself."
Lorelai squealed her acceptance, "God I was hoping you'd say that. Okay, drop those bags, we're headed out."
Bags were dropped before Rory locked up her condo and they headed out to find dinner and scoop out the land.
--------------
Lorelai was enjoying the time with Rory and Luke in this new city. They had walked around for what seemed like hours just getting a feel for Rory's new surroundings before settling on a little Chinese place to eat. They were now headed back to her condo to crash for the night, full and worn out.
"Man, that place was great. You'll be eating there a lot."
"Oh I know. I grabbed a takeout menu before we left."
"Good job sweets! What about the pizza place we passed awhile back."
Rory held up another menu, "that one too! I definitely won't be going hungry."
"Nope, and we'll have to check out that little bakery tomorrow morning and see if they have decent coffee."
"Oh for sure. I hope they do or I'll be stuck. I didn't see anywhere else to get coffee on our route to the office."
"I know, not even a Starbucks. That was weird."
"I know."
"Rory, please tell me you'll eat something other than that junk all the time. There is that fruit and veggie stand a couple blocks away and it looked like it was good."
"Um, so?" Rory laughed at Luke's expressions and quickly added, "ok, ok, I'll start eating some healthy stuff and keeping fresh stuff at my place."
"Good, I'm holding you to that."
Lorelai leaned over and whispered into her daughter's ear after Luke walked away, "You are such a liar."
"Shh! He doesn't have to know that."
They suppressed their laughs and went back to eating the ice cream they stopped to get on the way.
"So, you and Luke are staying here with me tonight right? Then you're checking into your hotel tomorrow." Rory asked and Lorelai detected the worry in her voice.
"Yup, then we'll head out early Tuesday morning. Tomorrow we'll be able to spend the day with you sight seeing and Monday after you get off work we'll go to dinner somewhere." Lorelai supplied not missing a beat.
"Okay, great," Rory paused and the nervous look appeared on her face again. "Mom, do you really think I can do this?"
"Of course you can do this honey. You'll knock 'em dead, just you wait and see."
"I sure hope so."
"You can and you will. I promise, no let's get this party started." Lorelai decided that changing the subject was the best way to go. "LUKE! Get in here or we're starting the movie without you."
"Ten more minutes," was Luke's reply from the bathroom.
"I'm starting it now, hurry!"
Lorelai and Rory got comfortable as they started the movie. They were joined by Luke, shortly there after and Lorelai snuggled into Luke's arms. She looked around and smiled at the family portrait she was apart of at that moment.
-------------------
Logan sat at a local coffee shop nursing his latte pondering his next move. He'd read her letter, multiple times and had even wrote a letter in response. That letter was now in his jacket pocket and he wasn't quite sure what to do.
He wanted to mail it, that was after all the purpose in writing it, but he'd been so open and honest and now he was worried it wouldn't be met as warmly as he dreamt. Her letter hadn't been horrible; actually it had been really good. But he wasn't sure if he'd lost his chance. She said herself that she couldn't wait around for him forever.
Did I wait too long? Do I still have a chance?
His pocket picked that time to beep and he pulled out his PDA only to have it remind him of a meeting he was now going to be late to. Without looking were he was going he jumped up and headed out, only to bump into another customer who was trying to juggle a carrier with several drinks and the bag that was set on top. The collision caused him to drop the drinks, spilling them all over the floor. The mystery guy immediately knelt to attempt to clean up the messing muttering some curses under his breath as he did so.
"Hey man, I'm sorry. Let me cover the replacements for you…" Logan's voice faded out when he came face to face with they guy he bumped in to. "Luke Danes?"
"Logan Huntzberger."
Oh shit.
