Chapter Eleven: Sprinkles bring out the Scaredy Cat in Logan

"I think it's time that you were introduced to Stars Hollow," Rory said to Logan as they walked out of school, hand in hand. Logan smiled, he had been expecting this for a while, and now the inevitable had come to be.

"Really?"

"Yes, you said that you wanted to meet Luke and my mom, and now you can,"

"Rory, I really don't do the whole parent thing. Parents like me, but I don't particularly like parents," Rory smiled.

"My mom is different, she's a cool mom, or at least that's what she likes to think. She'll be cool, I promise you,"

"I don't know Rory," She stopped, turning to him.

"Logan please, it would mean a lot to me," Logan thought for a moment, weighing his options. If he went she'd be really happy, but he'd have to suffer through a meeting with the parents. However, he'd be letting her down if he didn't go, and it also might make her think that he didn't take their relationship seriously. He sighed, realizing that he had no way out.

"Alright, if it means that much to me we'll go," Rory squealed, hugging him.

"Wow, you squealed, this much be pretty big," Rory kissed him, her forehead resting against his.

"Thank you Logan. Now, are you ready to go?" Logan looked at her surprised.

"Now?" She smiled, grabbing his hand, and then dragged him out to his car.


"Sean Connery," Chris stated, staring Lorelei down.

"No, Roger Moore,"

"Sean Connery, he's Scottish,"

"And Roger Moore is British, so was James Bond,"

"Yes, but the Scottish accent sounded classier," Chris pointed out.

"Classier? The Brits, like, created classy!" Lorelei and Chris had watched From Russia With Love, and were currently arguing over who was the better James Bond. Lorelei liked Roger Moore, while Chris was adamantly defending Sean Connery as the reigning Bond.

"Roger Moore is a better kisser," Lorelei said with a smile. Chris just gaped at her, shaking his head.

"That has no backing,"

"You can tell, the Bond girls always looked happier in his movies,"

"You're crazy,"

"Hey, it's not my fault that little Seanie couldn't deliver,"

"Oh, we are so over with this conversation. It took a very odd turn," Rory and Logan had just walked in and went over towards the couple. When Lorelei saw Rory she jumped up, giving her a bone crushing hug.

"Fruit of my loins!" Rory smiled, pulling away.

"Mom, that was funny the first four times, even the fifth was slightly amusing, but now it's just overused," Rory moved over to Christopher, giving him a quick hug and peck on the cheek. Lorelei was currently looking at Logan, her interest spiked.

"Alright Rory, who's Ryan Phillipe over here?" Rory smiled, grabbing Logan's arm and gently pulling him next to her.

"Mom, Dad, this is Logan," Lorelei smiled at him.

"Oh, so you're Logan. I finally get to meet the other half of the infamous Camp Sunshine kiss," Rory blushed, shooting her mother a look. Logan just laughed it off, nodding.

"Yes, that is me,"
"Well, it's nice to meet you," Lorelei said, Chris followed in suit, being as cordial as a father could be. Logan and Rory sat down at the table with her parents and then Luke came. He looked at Logan pointedly, disdain evident in his eyes.

"You're Logan, right?" Logan nodded, a bit scared of the man with the backwards baseball cap.

"Is that your gas guzzling SUV?" He asked, gesturing to the BMW X5 parked right outside the diner.

"Uh, yeah," Luke didn't respond, he just poured the coffee and then turned once more to Logan.

"Thanks for polluting our air. You will have your own personal hole in the ozone layer," Lorelei groaned looking at Luke.

"Luke, you drive a large pick-up truck, and since when do you care about the ozone layer?"

"I'd like to keep global warming from happening as long as I can,"

"Apple pie!" Rory said, trying to ease the tension that was so thick that you could cut it with a knife. Luke looked at her, and nodded.

"Alright, coming right up," Rory turned to Logan, a sheepish smile on her face.

"I'm sorry about that Logan,"

"I don't think he likes me,"

"No, he likes you...he's just...,"

"Grumpy?" Lorelei offered.

"Yes, he's just a little grumpy today,"

"It's probably because your mother ordered eight cups of coffee already, and we've only been here for a half hour," Lorelei smiled, shaking her head.

"No, it's probably because Kirk ordered a burger and then grilled him on how it was made,"

"Ha...grilled him...it's a pun," Lorelei giggled. Rory smiled at her mother, turning to Logan to explain.

"Kirk just saw Super Size Me,"

"I'm guessing that's not good?" Rory shook her head, looking at Kirk who was carefully examining his burger.

"No, not at all. Kirk tends to take things to the extreme, or past the extreme,"

"This town is definitely strange," He peered at her, "How did you end up so normal?"

"It was all me," Lorelei confessed, a satisfied look on her face.

"It was," Rory confirmed, "She is the only thing that has kept me from turning into Kirk," Logan looked back at Kirk, who was currently sniffing his bun, and then looked back at Lorelei.

"Thank you," He said, interlacing his fingers with Rory, Lorelei smiled at this, beaming.

"You're welcome Logan,"

"Now, where did you go before Chilton?" Chris asked, eager to get some information on Rory's new boyfriend.

"Groton, but, uh, I got kicked out,"

"Groton? No one gets kicked out of Groton!" Logan smiled as he explained what had happened. Maybe this whole Stars Hollow thing would turn out okay. Rory's parents seemed cool, and while Kirk was a bit weird he was also pretty damn amusing. Things were definitely looking up.


"Rory, I love your town," Logan said, reclining on the Gilmore's couch. Rory cuddled up to him, turning her body towards his.

"Logan, Babette just hassled you,"

"So?"

"She said that if you broke my heart she'd send her cat on you. Sprinkles has very sharp claws, trust me, I babysat her before, I came home with battle wounds," Logan smiled and kissed her.

"Well, then I guess that it's a good thing that I'm not going to break your heart,"

"Ah, how sweet. I still feel kind of bad though. Babette got pretty animated, she nearly fell off the stoop as she was jumping for emphasis," Logan smiled, remembering the moment.

"If you hurt her Blondie, I'll send Sprinkles after you. Rory is like a daughter to this town, we're all her parents. You treat her good, you here? She's a good girl!" Babette said proudly, "She's a good girl!"

"Babe, cool down!" Maury yelled from in the house, "Be cool!"

"Ah, my Maury. Now there' s a good man. You should learn a few things from him Blondie!" Logan nodded, trying not to smile.

"Alright, uh, it was nice meeting you,"

"That was the best part," Rory laughed, kissing him. He kissed her back, wrapping his arms around her.

"Ah!" Chris said as he walked in on Logan and Rory a bit preoccupied. Rory pulled away, smiling.

"Sorry Dad," Lorelei came in next, two large bowls of popcorn in her hand.

"Did you catch them necking?" Chris turned to Lorelei, a surprised look on his face.

"Lorelei!"

"What? I caught her and Dean doing it all the time," Chris shook his head, setting the bags of candy on the table.

"Okay, very bad image in my head," Lorelei snickered, turning on the television.

"Alright Rory, now since Logan is here I picked a very special movie,"

"What movie?"

"The Godfather," Lorelei exclaimed.

"Please tell me that it's the one with Sofia Coppola's death scene,"

"Of course it is," Rory smiled, turning to Logan.

"Have you ever seen this?"

"No,"

"Logan, this is definitely going to be a day to remember for you,"


The movie ended at 10:00 and Logan got back to his house by 10:30. He tiredly walked into the house, his eyes getting heavier with each passing second. He was ready to go to bed, however, the moment that he entered the living room he was attacked by his mother.

"Logan, where have you been?"

"I was with Rory,"

"Oh," Logan could hear the disappointment in her voice, but decided to just let it go. He knew that his family didn't like Rory. He didn't understand it, she was a Gilmore, yet they still looked down on her. Usually he would have started a fight with his mom, defending Rory, but he was just too tired.

"Mom, I'm going to go to bed,"

"Logan, before you go to bed there's someone who I think you'll want to see,"

"Mom, it's late," He turned to go upstairs, but his mother stopped him.

"Logan,"

"What?"

"Allison is staying with us," Logan stared at his mother, still processing what she said.

"As in Allison Fallon?"

"Yes,"

"My ex girlfriend?"

"Yes," Logan heard a tone of happiness in this response and found himself tense up. He knew that Shira didn't like Rory, but would she really try to break them up by bringing in his ex?

"Why is she staying with us?"

"Her parents are going to be indisposed for two weeks. They asked us to let her stay with us,"

"Great,"

"You should reconnect with her,"

"Mom, I'm with Rory,"

"Oh Logan, I only meant as friends. Anything past that is your choice,"

"Nothing will go beyond that point because I'm with Rory,"

"Of course," Logan could hear the disappointment again and couldn't stand it anymore.

"I'm going to bed," He turned around and headed upstairs, suddenly having a massive headache, and it came from just hearing her name. Allison was back, and instantly his life became complicated.


"It's terrible, I have to go with Henry and...I hate it," Lane was telling Rory about her prom dilemma and was currently freaking out.

"I'm sure that it will be fine. Dave will go to and then you can still hang out,"

"It won't be the same though. He'll be with some hot non-Asian girl probably who will feel him up while they're dancing and then life will just suck,"

"Lane, you're overthinking this,"

"I need to have someone go with Dave who I can trust. I need it to be someone who won't try to feel him up," She thought for a moment and then her eyes landed on Rory. A small smile formed on her lips as her plan formed.

"Rory,"

"No,"

"Come on Rory!"

"I can't, it's just weird,"

"I know you won't feel him up, and he won't fall for you,"

"Thanks Lane,"

"No, it's because I told him about Logan, so he knows that you are spoken for,"

"Spoken for?"

"Yeah, you belong to someone. You're spoken for,"

"That sounds like something from an old Western movie," Rory said, switching to a southern accent, "No Bud, I can't leave with you. I'm spoken for,"

"Please, I need you Rory!"

"I'm sure that you can-"

"ROry!" She looked at her friend, who looked so desperate that it was tragice. She sighed, giving in.

"Fine, I'll go,"

"Really?"

"Yes, I'll go," Lane smiled, hugging her.

"Do you know that you are the best friend that an Asian girl who needs her friend to go to prom with the love of her life could ever have?" Rory smiled.

"Yes, I know,"


"Logan, it has been quite a while, huh?" Allison said, sitting across from him at the table. He looked at her, surprised to see that she hadn't changed a bit. Her hair was raven black and in glossy curls. Her bangs were swept to the side, falling just above her green eyes. Those particular eyes were trained on him, trying to read him. The truth was that she still wanted him, now all she had to do was convince him that he still wanted her too.

"Hi Allison,"

"All I get is a hi?"

"Well, I think that the way we parted makes it okay for me just to give you a hi," She laughed, playing with one of her curls.

"Oh Logan, it wasn't that bad,"

"I found you making out with one of my good friends, and you didn't even stop when you saw me," She smiled, her teeth perfectly white.

"Logan, that was then, this is now. I've changed,"

"Right,"

"No, I have. I'm not like that anymore,"

"Whatever," Logan said, standing up, "I'm going to go for a jog," She got up too, smiling at him again. He used to love that smile, now it just disgusted him.

"I'll go too. I've been meaning to get out for a while,"

"Uh, okay," She smiled, heading upstairs to put on the sexiest sports bra she owned with some track shorts, and nothing else.

While they ran, Logan was surprised to hear that Allison really had changed. She talked about how she had transferred from Andover and was now at a prep school like Logan. She said that the structured atmosphere helped her a lot and that she really loved it. Logan found himself hating her less and less Soon he was able to look at her without constantly seeing an image of her and Greg making out in his head. He was no where near being totally comfortable with her, but he was making progress. They stopped at a corner, taking a break. They had been running for about an hour and were both out of breath.

"Wow Logan, you're in better shape than I thought," She said, glancing at him. She looked at his sweat drenched t-shirt and wondered if he was still as toned as before.

"I run pretty much every day,"

"That must take a lot of dedication," She said, edging towards him.

"Yeah, I guess," He had noticed her moving towards him and was becoming a bit uncomfortable.

"Oh, Logan, you have an eyelash," She said sweetly, leaning in to pick the eyelash off of his face. His body went cold the moment her hand touched his face. She looked in his eyes and smiled, her face still moving closer to his. Before he could stop her she pressed her lips to his. She opened her mouth immediately, sticking her tongue into his mouth. His eyes were wide open in shock. He was even more shocked when he saw Rory drive by with her mom and someone else, completely caught off guard. He pushed Allison away roughly, his eyes still glued on the car speeding away.

"Logan,"

"What the hell was that?"

"Lo-"

"I'm with someone Allison, someone that I really care about who happened to have just drove by,"

"Did she see?" Logan could hear the eagerness in her voice and it disgusted him. He ran away without another word, hoping Rory would understand.


Rory couldn't believe what she had seen. Logan was out on a street corner kissing another girl, a very attractive girl. She was wearing a slutty push up sports bra and was all over her boyfriend. Rory was pissed and it did not go unnoticed by Lorelei.

"Rory?"

"I want to go home,"

:"But we were going to the mall. I thought we were going to get lots of fattening mall food and then mock the workers,"

"I want to go home,"

"Rory,"

"I just saw Logan making out with a random girl on a street corner, I want to go home!" Lorelei looked at her daughter, surprised.

"What?"

"Can we take a different route home, I don't want to see them again,"
"Uh...sure, uh, we'll go home," Rory nodded, not letting herself look out the window. She looked down at her hands, tears falling quickly down her cheeks. When her cell phone rang she picked it up and her heart raced when she saw that it was Logan.

"Is it Logan?"

"Yeah," Lorelei took the phone and answered.

"Hi Logan. Don't call Rory for a while, she's going to be busy. You can just go back to the girl that you were currently making out with on a street corner, by the way that is quite classy, and if I hear that you are trying to talk to Rory I will have Babette send Sprinkles after you. I am not kidding, I never kid. Good bye Logan, have a nice life," She hung up and then handed the phone back to Rory.

"Thanks mom,"

"You're welcome, now what type of ice cream do you want for the wallowing process?"

"I...I haven't thought of it yet,"

"Well, the best way to get your mind off of you know who is to think of what you're going to drown yourself in. I personally would recommend Rocky Road, it did get me through Max,"

"Um, I think I'll go with chocolate," Lorelei nodded, putting her hand over her daughter's.

"Alright, chocolate it is,"
