Chapter 10

Once they reached the top floor Logan placed his hand on the small of Rory's back and ushered her out of the elevator. He watched as Rory walked over to the railing with an enchanted look on her face. He couldn't help but smile to himself watching her emotions play on her face. There was something about Lorelei Leigh Gilmore the third that had he himself enchanted. Ever since she debated with him in the hallway back at the beginning of the year he hasn't been able to figure her out. He definitely planned on trying to, no matter how long it took. He wanted Rory as his girlfriend. There was just the matter of his parents and her grandparents to think of….

Before he could finish thinking Rory interrupted his thoughts, "It's so peaceful and beautiful out there." She was so mesmerized by the scenery that she didn't notice Logan looking at her.

"I've seen prettier."

"Oh yeah, like what?" She turned to face him just as his hand reached her cheek.

"Yeah, like you."

Rory let out a sigh as she buried her face in Logan's neck. "What's wrong Ace?"

"As much as I'm enjoying this weekend away with you, I can't quit thinking about what's waiting for us back at home."

"Don't worry Rory, we'll figure this thing out…together."

"Together?" Was Logan Huntzberger asking her out?

"Together." Logan knew it was now or never to drop the bomb on her. "With you as my girlfriend I think we can take on anything."

Rory smiled and kissed him lightly. "Well Logan, if I didn't know any better I'd say that you are an eternal optimist."

"Yup, that's me. I can bring peace and happiness to any situation with my comforting words and persona."

"Ha, charm and cockiness is more like it."

"Are you calling me cocky Rory Gilmore?"

"Yes Huntzberger, I am." As the space between them grew smaller still, Rory felt Logan's warm breath upon her neck.

"Ace, I think you fail to remember that you fell for this so called charm and cockiness of mine."

"Is that so?" Rory untangled herself from Logan and crossed the platform throwing a smirk back towards Logan.

"Don't deny it Ror, you know you want me." Logan wrapped his arms around her waist from behind and pulled her flush against him.

"Oh yes Logan…I want you, I need you. Oh baby, oh baby."

"Real original…man Ace, I got to say that I'm disappointed. I expected more from a talented journalist such as yourself."

"Well, give me a second to recuperate from this so called charm of yours and I'll get back to you."

"If you want me that much Ace all you have to do is ask."

"Nah, I think your head is big enough already. If we're not careful you could tip us over up here."

"Oh really?" Giggles emerged from Rory's lips as Logan's fingers attacked her sides. Finally letting up after a much heated struggle Logan decided it was about time for them to go back. "Well, I suggest we get off here before we risk that pretty little face of yours."

"Aww Logan, you really now how to woo a girl don't you?"

Logan grabbed Rory's feeling a rush of warmth as their skin touched at the intimate gesture. "For you Ace, anything."

As they made their way towards the elevator, Rory had a mischievous grin on her face. "Anything?"

Naively, Logan agreed. "Yup."

"Hmm…I'm going to have to hold you to that Logan."

Finally catching on, Logan's head snapped to look at her as they slowly descended to the ground. "Now now, my body must still be intact Ace. No bodily harm must bestow upon me. You wouldn't want me to cry now would you?"

"Poor baby," Rory caressed Logan's cheek. "I'll go easy on you…for now."

"For now?" Logan choked out as he saw the look in Rory's eyes.

"Yeah, I'll have my way with you later." Rory left a stunned Logan at the elevator as the doors closed behind them.

Twenty minutes later, Rory and Logan reentered the hotel once again. Rory could hear distant voices and music down the hall. Logan intertwined their fingers for the second time that night as the walked toward the noise. "I just have to let Finn and Colin know that we're back and then we'll go watch that movie in your room okay?"

"Okay, but we can stay for a little while if you want."

"We'll see, I'd much rather spend some time with you." Logan wrapped his arm around her waist as the large group of intoxicated college students came into view. Towards the back of the room stood a group of people surrounding someone who was attempting a horrible rendition of Brittney Spear's 'Oops I did it again.'

Rory heard it too and instantly covered her ears. "Oh my, someone has had one too many beers."

"Or not enough." Suddenly it all made sense when the mystery singer came into view.

"Logan, mate! You're back, now the party can really start! It got pretty boring so my public demanded a performance."

Logan embraced his long time Aussie friend. "I see that man. I have that you give the dear Ms. Spears a run for her money."

"You know me Huntz, always the star."

"Well Finn, I just came to tell you that we're back. We're going to go get a drink before we go back to watch a movie. Catch you later."

"See you mate. Rory, you're looking as lovely as ever," Logan shot Finn warning look as he started to make a move on Rory. "Right, well…I need more alcohol. I'm practically sober!"

"Bye Finn, it was a pleasure hearing you sing," Rory said as Finn placed a kiss on her hand.

"Doll, the pleasure was all mine." And with that, Finn was off on the great alcohol search…only to be stop by the nearest red head.

"That Finn sure does have a short attention span. I'm surprised he remembered me this time."

"How could he forget someone as beautiful and wonderful as you?" Rory turned to Logan as his arms crept around her waist, "What about that drink?"

Off to the side of the party, Colin and Stephanie stood watching the newfound couple interact. "Well Steph, looks like they had a good time tonight."

"Seems that way."

"What do you say to us having a little fun of our own, hmm?" Colin looked up at Steph with suggestive eyebrows.

"Colin, if I didn't know any better I'd say that you were hitting on me."

Colin leaned forward to place a gentle kiss on her lips. "You always were a smart girl Steph, you'll figure it out." Stephanie placed a hand to her lips as she watched Colin walk away with a jaunt in his step.

Finn approached and put his arm around Steph, more for stability than anything. "Did he just…"

"Yeah Finn…yes he did."

"Well, well…seems Gilmore gave our dear friend his balls back."
