AN: I´m really sorry for not updating sooner. I´ll try to make this chapter long enough to make up for that.

DISCLAIMER: I own Mike and Meg. And nothing else.

11. Meetings

˝Damn it!˝, she threw her phone in the wall so hard that it broke and fell on the floor of her living room in small pieces.

It was a week since she went to Logan´s office. A whole week without him in her life. And she was thinking about him all the time. That put her in really bad mood. She hated the fact that she couldn´t get him out of her head. She was mad at everyone and everything. Even Michael knew that something was wrong. And call from Shira didn´t improve her mood at all.

Meg walked down from her room when she heard the hit. She stood in the door-step.

˝What did the phone do to you? Let me guess, something to do with Logan?˝, she smiled at Rory.

Rory glared at her, ˝His mother the dearest.˝

˝Something about wedding?˝

Rory sighed, ˝Isn´t lately everything about that damn wedding?˝

Meg smiled and Rory didn´t like it.

˝What´s so funny?˝

˝You are. You think about that wedding all the time and you´re pissed ´cause you can´t stop. And thinking about that reminds you of Logan and then you´re even more pissed. And you still didn´t tell me why we didn´t see him for a week now.˝, she smiled again.

˝And I won´t tell you now either.˝, now it was Rory´s turn to smile. ˝I´m not in the mood to listen your comments about my lovely fiancé.˝, she went to pick up the phone, or at least what was left of it.

Meg looked after her but stood in the place, ˝Ror, what did he do to you? You were never mad at anyone for this long.˝

˝I´m not mad at him Meg. I just don´t want to deal with him right now.˝, she sighed again, ˝But then again, who cares what I want? I have to go to that stupid lunch. Damn wedding, damn inheritance, damn society and damn everything that goes in that package!˝, she walked by Meg and into the kitchen.

˝Hey, did you notice that you didn´t say damn Logan?˝, Meg shouted after her.

Rory walked to the kitchen door and smiled sweetly at her sister, ˝Do you like having money? ´Cause if you do you might wanna think about holding your mouth shut.˝

Meg nodded and walked up the stairs and to her room and Rory started making their lunch. She cursed when Logan came to her mind again. She remembered how he reacted when she was making them lunch few days ago. She stopped cooking and ordered pizza.

The next morning she woke up with a headache. It was great start of the day.

The lunch was at the society club and she had to dress up even she was not in the mood for that.

After she got to the parking lot she sat at the car for a few more minutes to calm herself so she would be able to control herself around them.

As soon as she stepped in the restaurant she saw her grandmother with Shira and Logan. She aproached the table and greeted everyone. She was polite but not and warm with them. She sat beside Logan because that was the only free chair at the table. They talked about some stupid stuff while they waited for their lunch. They talked about wedding while they ate their dessert. Logan and Rory talked as little as it was possible. When they finally agreed on everything Shira and Francine went to make a phone call so they could leave Logan and Rory alone to have some private time.

There was uncomfortable silence that was driving Rory insane. She decided to speak but she didn´t look at Logan.

˝Megan wants to know when are you free for that double date. That is if you still want to go.˝

She knew that he was staring at her but she was still looking at her glass and not at him.

˝That means that her boyfriend said yes. Maybe he´s not that bad after all.˝, he tried to start somekind of conversation.

˝I´ll know is he good or bad after that dinner.˝, she kept looking everywhere just not at him.

˝Imagine that he falls for you at that dinner. That would be nice.˝, he tried to make her laugh but it didn´t work.

˝I don´t want to think about that possibility. If you don´t like the idea of a double date anymore you don´t have to go. Meg will somehow survive without you being there. Or maybe I´ll take someone else.˝, she felt his eyes making hole in her face but she still didn´t turn.

He was silent for a few moments before he spoke again.

˝It was my idea so I think it would be a little stupid when I wouldn´t like it.˝, his voice was close to whisper, ˝Or you want to take someone else instead of me?˝

˝Meg wants you to be there. I don´t know why but she believes that you´ll be able to stop me from atacking her boyfriend.˝, she didn´t answer his question on purpose. She wasn´t sure why she did it. She knew that she could find a guy to go on a date with her whenever she wanted to but even that Logan didn´t want to go she wouldn´t do it. She just wasn´t interested in men.

She heard Logan sigh, ˝Then I´ll be there. Is Friday good?˝

˝It is for me. I´ll tell Meg to ask John and then I´ll let you know.˝, she turned to look at him and what she saw in his eyes confused her. He was frustrated. He didn´t like what she was doing. She didn´t understand that. He didn´t care about her so why would he let her get to him like that?

There was once again that silence and Rory prayed for the women to come back. And that was something that she thought she´ll never pray for. This wedding and her groom will drive her crazy even more than she was until that day when she met Logan Huntzberger.

Logan hated that she didn´t want to look at him. He knew that his words hurt her that day but he didn´t know that it hurt her that much. He decided to try and bring their relationship back to that playfully-sexual level.

˝Rory...˝, just when he said it he heard his mother´s voice and saw her and Rory´s grandmother aproaching the table. He sighed and relaxed in the chair. It was not meant for him to make a peace with his fiancée, at least not that day.

Soon they said their goodbyes and went to their homes. After that lunch Logan was in bad mood as much as Rory was. He didn´t even want to spend time with his best friends and that never happened before. He grew up with Colin and Finn. They were together all the time. Now they were trying to talk him into going to pub with them but he didn´t want to go.

˝What is wrong with you? You are odd since the day you met that fiancée of yours. First you come and brag about screwing her already and then the next day you don´t want to go have fun. Well, my friend, you can stay and sorry yourself but I´m going to pub. I´ll be much more happy in the company of my really best friend alocohol and some gorgeous redhead. Goodbye! Have fun!˝, and with that he was out of room.

Logan and Colin just shook their heads at his behavior. Colin stared at Logan for a few seconds before he spoke.

˝Something happened with her, didn´t it? what I don´t understand is why does it bother you so much. I mean, you are both forced into that marriage. And you have fun in bed together and I really don´t see the problem in that. I just don´t understand why you stopped sleeping with all that girls that are trowing themselves on you. Are you sick or something?˝ , he reached out his hand to touch Logan´s forehead but Logan hit his hand away before he could do it.

He sighed, ˝That´s the problem. She told me that I have to choose between her and all those other girls. I know that you think I´m crazy for even thinking about it but it is so good to be with her that I´m not sure that I want to give that up for being with other girl every night. I never enjoyed sex as much as I did with her.˝, he looked at Colin to see him looking back at him like he was crazy.

Colin slowly nodded his head, ˝OK, but how would she know that you´re sleeping with other girls?˝

˝The same way she found out everything about me, even that those girls want to sleep with me. They´ll tell her just to make her mad and to show her that they can fuck her fiancé whenever they want.˝

˝I see. Well you got some big problem there. You sit here and think about it and I´m going out to get myself some nice girl who´ll be happy to join me in bed.˝, he grinned as Logan glared at him and went after Finn.

Logan sat there thinking for some time and then he took phone and called her. It rang four times before she picked it up.

˝Hello?˝

It was really good to hear her voice, ˝Hey, you sound like you were running.˝, he didn´t know how to start that conversation.

There was silence while she tried to think of something to tell him. She came up with nothing.

˝Logan?˝

He smiled, ˝I thought that you´ll hang up on me.˝

˝Listen, I don´t have time for this. I was giving Mike a bath and now he is alone in the bathroom and that usually ends as disaster.˝

He sighed, ˝Ror I want to see you.˝

˝I´m not in the mood for that.˝

˝Just to see you, Rory, I didn´t say that I want to have sex.˝

She was silent for a minute and he knew that she was thinking.

˝Wait a second.˝, and then he heard her yelling to Meg to go to Michael.

˝Logan just tell me what you want.˝, she tried to stay calm.

˝I want to talk. Nothing else.˝

˝With us it´s never just that and you know it.˝

He prayed that she´ll say yes in the end ´cause he really just wanted to see her and to talk to her, ˝If that´s what you want it will stay just on that. I promise.˝

It was her turn to sigh, ˝All right. When and where?˝

˝Tonight at 8 at the pub where we met. I want you to meet my friends.˝, he grinned.

˝OK. Logan, don´t expect me to be happy to see you.˝, with that she hung up.

Conversation didn´t end as he hoped that it would but she said yes. That was something. At least he hoped that it meant something.

She walked in the pub just on time. Part of her hoped that he won´t be there. But as soon as walked in she saw him sitting at the table with five poeple. She took a deep breath and slowly walked to them. There were three boys and two girls with Logan. Guys checked her out and girls smiled at her.

Logan stood up and moved to stand beside her. He put his arm around her waist and hoped that she won´t push him away.

He started telling her names as he pointed to each person, ˝These are Colin, Steph, Robert, Finn and my sister Honor. Guys, this is my fiancé Lorelai.˝

She looked at him like she never saw him before.

˝You didn´t even once call me Lorelai since the day we met, what the hell got into you now?˝

His friends stared at them with amusement on their faces.

˝I think that they should know your real name and not just short version of it.˝, he smiled at her.

˝That´s great just even you don´t know my full name and I think that you do know that I hate when someone calls me Lorelai. My grandmother calls me that when I do something wrong.˝, she paused like she was thinking, ˝And that means all the time.˝

Everyone laughed a little and then Logan and Rory sat and started conversation so Rory could meet his friends a little better. She had to addmit that they were fun people to be with.

AN: Once more, I´m really sorry for not updating sooner. And I´m sorry that I can´t tell you how soon I´ll be able to post again. I just don´t have time to do it more often. I hope you like this one. REVIEW
