Rory walked outside and sat down on the porch steps. Logan followed her outside and stood behind her.

"Ace?"

"That was your dad Logan."

"Yeah Ace that was my dad."

"He just invited me to dinner."

"Actually I believe he invited us to dinner."

"Logan do you know what this means?"

"That we are going to eat dinner at my parent's house."

"Ha ha. Seriously Logan your parents hate me and now your dad is inviting me to dinner. This should be fun!"

"Ace if it gets bad we leave alright. I will not sit by tonight and watch my family grill you. I promise that is will be fine now I need to call San Francisco and let them know that I am not coming. Are you going to be okay for a few minutes?"

Rory just nodded. She knew that Logan would protect her from them tonight but who was going to protect them from her? She promised herself if she ever met with them again she would let them have a piece of her mind. These were the people that almost ruined her life and her relationship with her mom and now she was just going to show up for dinner. Rory got up and walked inside. Logan was in the kitchen on the phone. She went into her room and grabbed her cell phone. She flipped through the contacts and found her mother's number. She sat there and debated if she should call her. Rory knew she was with Luke and a phone call like this could ruin their day. She put her phone down and sprawled out on the bed. If she couldn't talk to her mom then she was going to at least take a nap.

Logan woke Rory up at four in the afternoon.

"Good morning sunshine." Logan bent down and kissed Rory on the forehead. "I think you should start getting ready for tonight Ace."

Rory sat up and looked at him with pleading eyes.

"Do I really have to go?"

Logan smirked.

"Yeah you have to go Ace."

"But I don't wanna." Rory whined as if she was a child.

Logan took her hand and pulled her out of bed.

"Get ready Ace your going."

"Fine but I don't have to be happy about it!"

"I would never ask you to be no go!"

Rory got up and went into the bathroom. She turned on the shower and then went to grab a towel and her robe. After grabbing these she walked back into the bathroom and started to take off her clothes.

She had to visit the doctor again this week It would be the fourth time she would see her children. She looked in the mirror and saw not a baby bump but a baby mountain. She knew she was going to get big especially carrying twins but she never thought it was going to happen this fast. She guessed that not showing for a while came with her body having to play catch up when she started to treat it right. Six months down and just less than three months left to go. The last time she was at the doctors she asked about her lack of baby bump, which was no longer the case. The doctor told her not to worry he said typically when you are pregnant for the first time women tend to show later than they do when they are pregnant with their second or third child. He also said that the way she was carrying the babies had a lot to do with not being able tell before she did.

Rory finished undressing and stepped into the warm shower. She let the water run down her back and onto the shower floor. In the warmth of the shower it was like time stood still. She could have stayed in the shower all night if it was not for Logan barging in and dragging her out of the shower.

She dried off and put on her bathrobe. She was disappointed that she could not spend more time in the bathroom but Logan was very persistent on checking on her. She went to her closet and look for something to wear. She had not really gone shopping for clothes that fit her right since she started to really show. Since then she had just been wearing tee shirts and stretch pants but those did not seem fitting for tonight.

"Logan!"

Logan came into the room wear just his nice black pants. With no shirt on Rory was falling even more in love with him.

"What's wrong?" Logan walked over to the closet and faced her.

"I have nothing to wear."

Logan looked into the closet and then started laughing.

"Your closet is full and you have nothing to wear? Come on Ace just pick something."

"Logan that is not what I meant I mean nothing nice fits me and I don't think sweats and a tight shirt is fitting for this occasion."

"Wait you don't have any pregnancy clothes?"

"No I just figured I would wear what I had until I needed something. Usually I have plenty of warning before something like this."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"I didn't think about it."

"Okay it is four thirty right now if we leave in five minutes we can pick up something on the way now lets get moving!"

Rory put on a shirt and a pair of pants and packed a few bra choices so she was prepared depending on what she ended up with. She blow-dried her hair quickly while applying her make-up. She was going to have to finish it in the car but at least she had started. She grabbed a few shoe choices and then her and Logan left to find a maternity clothing store.

There were not many choices but Rory went with a low cut black dress. Logan paid while Rory changed into the dress. It was not the nicest dress but it was better than one that did not fit. It was now five twenty and they still had a ways to drive to get to his parent's house. Rory was sure that they were going to be late but Logan was determined to get there on time.

He sped down every road and luckily there were no cops out tonight. It was five forty five when he pulled into the driveway. Rory had a death grip on the seat and Logan could not help but laugh.

"Really Ace do you think I would kill you?"

Rory took a deep breath and loosened her grip.

"Never on purpose but accidents happen Logan."

Logan leaned over and kissed her.

"Well then next time I will go extra slow if that will make you feel better."

"Thanks."

Logan got out of the car and walked to Rory's door. He opened it and helped her out. They both turned and made the walk to the door. Logan rang the doorbell and a maid answered. Logan waved her off and he took Rory through the house and into the dining room.

Logan's house still amazed Rory. Her grandparents had a big house but their house failed to compare. Logan had her hand in his and was dragging her into the dining room. Rory saw Honor sitting at the table next to Josh. She looked anxious about this dinner as well. Josh was sitting next to Shira who was downing a glass of wine at the moment. Logan sat across from Josh closest to his mother and he placed Rory across from Honor and closest to the seat his father would sit in.

"So Rory you're pregnant. Congratulations."

Honor grabbed Josh's hand after saying that. Shira was trying to get another glass of wine from one of the maids. She was rather uncomfortable. There was no denying that Rory was pregnant once she walked into the room and she was not handling the news well.

"Yeah six month."

"I am so excited I am going to be an aunt. Do you know what you are having?"

Just then Mitchum walked into the room.

"Sorry I am late I got held up a bit at the office. Shall we start dinner?"

He sat down and the food was brought out to the table. They were served chicken with salad. It was a rather simple meal but Rory was grateful for simple.

"So back to my question Rory, do you know what you are having?"

Rory looked at Logan and he nodded.

"Yeah we are having a girl…"

"Fantastic!"

"I wasn't finished."

"You weren't? I thought that babies only had one gender. Wait…"

"I'm having twins. A girl AND a boy."

"Oh my congratulations guys! Have you thought of any names?"

Mitchum became intrigued at the mention of this topic.

"Yes have you two thought of any names yet?"

Logan stepped up to the plate on this question.

"Actually we decided that we were going to name them Leah Emily and Levi Richard."

"Oh Logan those are cute names. I am so happy for you guys."

Mitchum put his fork down and leaned back in his chair. Rory could see him mouth the names of her children over and over again.

"Tell me Rory how did you come up with these names?"

Mitchum leaned forward while asking his question.

"Well Logan was taking me to a doctor's appointment when he gave me a baby name book. I was going through a lot of names when Logan suggested that we look for names that start with the letter "L" like both of our names and we really liked the names Leah and Levi. Emily and Richard of course are after my grandparents for all they have done for me over the years."

Mitchum leaned back.

"Oh I see. Shira what do you think about all of this?"

Shira jerked her head to look at her husband.

"All of what? Oh Rory and Logan yeah its great."

"I meant the names dear."

"Oh yeah Emily and Richard great names."

"Actually mom Logan and Rory are naming them Leah and Levi. Emily and Richard are their middle names."

Shira didn't respond. Rory figured she was probably too drunk to understand what was going on anyway.

Everyone finished eating and the plates were cleared when Honor stood up.

"So I kind of have an announcement to make. Josh and I are pregnant. Not as pregnant as Rory is but we are having a baby too."

Honor sat down and Josh took her hand.

"Well congratulations Honor."

Mitchum was smiling as he leaned back in his seat.

"Congratulations you guys."

Rory was happy for the two of them. They had been married for a while and they were ready to be parents.

"Congrats sis."

Logan was beaming after that news.

Shira on the other hand nearly died and she decided to speak up about it.

"Are you two trying to kill me? I mean first I hear that Logan just told his father his girlfriend was pregnant over the phone, which is fine I could care less. Then you show up here tonight and Rory is about to bust over there and oh she is having twins. Then Honor dear Honor you tell your poor mother than you are also making her a grandmother. I am not old enough for this. I figured another year or two from Honor but Logan you're not even married. Not only are you not married she turned you down when you asked her to marry you and now you two are all lovey dovey because she is pregnant. Give me a break you should have dumped Rory when we told you to but no now you are stuck seeing her for at least the next eighteen years…"

"That is enough mom!" Logan stood up and threw his napkin on the table. "You said that Rory was not good enough for this family and the fact is she isn't good enough you know why? It is because she is far greater than this family could ever hope of reaching. And yes she turned me down when I proposed earlier but that was because I told her to move with me to California and be my wife. I told her that she either married me or we were over and she was scared. Don't sit here and insult my girlfriend and the mother of my children…"

"Logan don't speak to your mother like that!"

"Shut up dad. I am tired of hearing the both of you trash Rory. You have a choice either shut up and be happy for us or watch us walk out of your lives with our children forever!"

"Me too!" Honor was standing up across from Rory. "You guys didn't think Josh was good enough for me when we started dating and then Rory came along and she became the scapegoat and I will not stand for it any longer. Treat her with some respect please!"

"Both of you sit down! I will not stand for this in my house. Now your mother was wrong for saying that but she does have some good points. Rory are you going to marry my son?"

Rory's face turned bright red.

"I don't know."

"Do you want to marry my son?"

"Yes."

"You do?" Logan sat down and looked at her.

"Of course I want to I just don't know if I can."

"But there is a chance that if I was to ask you that you would say yes?"

"Yeah but lets talk about this later."

"So you want to marry him correct?"

"Yes."

"Then I am happy for the both of you and you too Honor and eventually your mother will come around..."

"No I won't"

"Don't listen to her. Now you all can leave but I want to have dinner again with all of you in one week. Honor, Logan I will call you both with the details and Rory I want a picture of those babies."

A/N: I know that this is a weird place to leave the story but I couldn't continue without going too far so I stopped here and will be writing like crazy to finish the next part soon. I hope you like it!
