"That's awesome, Kid." said Lorelai, standing to give Rory a hug. "Congratulations!"

"Thanks Mom." said Rory, hugging her mom back. "We need to go in and see Lavie and finish up final paperwork in the next few days, but yeah it's ours."

"Good job and congratulations, Rory." said Luke, being unsure what to say, but smiling at Rory. He hoped he hadn't made Rory feel unwelcome at home with his and Lorelai's plans. He looked nervously at his plate.

"Thanks Luke." said Rory, giving him a side hug. "I texted Logan and he'll probab..." Rory is cut off by her phone ringing. Looking down at the caller ID, "Speaking of the devil." She walks back in her room and shuts the door before picking up, hearing her mom laugh as she leaves. "Hey Logan."

"Hey Ace. I just saw your text. Sorry for the delay." said Logan. "So it all went through okay?"

"Yes." said Rory, being sure not to leave out a single detail describing her conversation with Lavie. "So not sure when you would be available to go back in to Lavie's?"

"I could meet you there at lunch tomorrow." said Logan, checking his calendar and having to admit Rory was right months earlier when she called him a work dork these days. "If that's alright with you. I figure sooner is likely better."

"I agree. I'm free." said Rory, nodding and then realizing Logan can't see her and laughs. "Though guess we will have to go furniture shopping soon enough as well."

"Ouch! That stings!" said Logan, jokingly. "My decor is that bad?"

"I didn't mean that." said Rory, a little flustered. "Just figured we would want to pick out things together and..." She hadn't meant to offend Logan.

Logan breaks in laughing. "I get it and I want to too. Though I am bringing my buddy Henry." said Logan, looking at his suit of armor. "He's made every move with me."

"Well that I know. Plus honestly, I kind of miss him." said Rory. "Though maybe he can go into the guest room?"

"As long as he gets a place, he'll be happy" said Logan. "As for everything else, it doesn't really matter. Actually, besides from a few pieces, I rented this place furnished as well I hadn't originally planned to be in Hartford. So unless you want to use your grandmother's old things from the dorm, we'd need to get furniture anyways."

"Maybe the coffee table...it is cute how it looks like it's made of giant books. Everything else wasn't really my style anyways." said Rory. "And never tell her, but a lot of it got donated anyways. The only things I really kept were that coffee table, an ottoman, and the TV."

"I would never place myself in the wrath of Emily Gilmore. She can be frightening when she wants to be." said Logan, laughing, but still serious. "So what does she think ever happened to it after you moved in with Paris, than me, than Paris?"

"She probably thinks Paris still has it or something." said Rory. "She hasn't mentioned it in years, but I'm not crazy enough to rock that boat."

"Good idea. So I'd love to talk forever, but the Thai food I picked up on the way home is getting cold." said Logan, regretful and already wishing he was coming home to Rory. "See you tomorrow."

"It's fine. See you then." said Rory, hanging up. She laid on her bed and almost jumped when her phone rang again. "Hello?" she said, not thinking to check the caller ID.

"Rory you brat." said Lane playfully. "How come you didn't tell me you were back in town? I had to hear it through Kirk of all people! You so owe me for that!"

"Hey Lane. Sorry, thought you were going on tour with Zack?" said Rory. "I figured I would just tell you when you got home...though there's more news I've been wanting to tell you. Are you sitting down?"

"With chips and everything." said Lane, crossing her fingers the babies would stay asleep. "Fill me in!"

"I'm back with Logan." said Rory, trusting her best friend to keep it all quiet. "And I'm pregnant."

"Whoa!" said Lane, almost choking on a pringle. "That's a lot of news!"

"There's actually one more piece...Logan and I bought a house. We need to sign the final papers and all, but it's ours." said Rory. "Do you happen to remember The Oasis?"

"Yeah, crazy Dwight. Lorelai didn't hush about him for a good six months." said Lane, laughing. "He was a character. So wow, your mom must be happy you will be so close by...and I admit it will be fun to have my friend in town!"

"You'll have to fill me in on the horrors of babies!" said Rory. She hears the sound of a baby crying on the other end. "Steve or Kwan?"

"It's Kwan." said Lane, with a sigh. "Sorry, but got to go. Tiny bit of advice - you never have enough diapers! Bye." Lane hangs up in a hurry. Rory laughs and wonders if Lane's kids and her kid will be friends in the future. She hears her mom and Luke finish cleaning up and feels a bit bad for not helping. Figuring she should give them some alone time, she picks up a book she's been meaning to read off a shelf and curls up in the chair by her dresser to read.
