"So which outfit suits me better?" said Rory the next morning, holding up two outfits. "The grey suit with a skirt or the slacks with a vest?"

"They both look pretty good to me." said Logan, buttoning his shirt. "You look good in both." Logan leaned over and gave Rory a kiss.

"Logan, totally not helpful." said Rory a little annoyed, but returning the kiss. "I want to look right for the job."

"You're right for the job." said Logan. "That's what matters. But if you really want me to choose, the grey suit with a skirt."

"Perfect." said Rory, gathering other things needed for the outfit and getting dressed. "So how do I look?"

"Beautiful, as always." said Logan, tying his tie expertly. "If we hurry, maybe we can grab a breakfast sandwich from Luke's on the way in?"

"Sounds good." said Rory, finishing getting dressed. "Let's go."

Rory and Logan enter Luke's, seeing it packed. "There may go breakfast." said Rory, with a sad tone to her voice.

"Hey Rory! Hey Logan!" said Luke from behind the counter. "Sorry, but things are slammed this morning. What can I get for you?"

Looking at her watch, "How about some donuts?" said Rory. "We're in a bit of a hurry."

"Can do!" said Luke, putting four donuts in a bag. "It's on the house for my favorite stepdaughter." Luke handed the bag over while quickly pouring two to-go cups of coffee.

"I'm your only stepdaughter - and you don't have to give me freebies." said Rory.

"Then you pay tomorrow." said Luke. "But right now, free breakfast for your first day. I won't go broke over a few donuts."

"Okay." said Logan picking up the bag of donuts for Rory and one of the coffees. "Thanks!"

"No problem." said Luke, going back to wiping down the counter in between taking orders.

Approaching the office, Logan turned a little to Rory to ask. "Nervous?"

"Very!" said Rory. "Feels like my first day all over again. Well it's my first day here, but you know what I mean."

"I do." said Logan, pulling into his usual spot. "See you around 5pm?"

"Yeah." said Rory getting out. "Anyway I can at least get you to point me in the right direction?"

After a small discussion, Rory headed in.

"You must be Rory." said David, the editor. "Nice to meet you."

"Yes." said Rory. "I take it you are David and the same."

"That I am. Let me show you to your desk." David walks Rory over to a desk near a window. "Recently vacant. You will need to go down and get your ID though. And there's a staff meeting in an hour. See you there." David walked off and Rory sat down at her desk for a moment to unpack a few things she brought with her. A picture of her and her mom, her lucky pen, etc. Afterwards, Rory went down and got her ID.

At 5pm, Rory walked out of the door with her mind overflowing from taking it all in. Spotting Logan by his car, she quickly walked over, slipping off her heels as she went. "Hey Logan."

"Have a good first day?" said Logan, taking her satchel and placing it in the backseat with his briefcase. "Hopefully no one was too hard on you?"

"Just tiring and people were great." said Rory, getting in the car. "Though I got a few strange looks, so maybe a few know I got the job from knowing you?"

"Who cares what people think." said Logan. "You'll make friends. You always do. And you'll blow David away with your first story."

"You always have so much confidence in me." said Rory. "How are you always so sure?"

"Because I love you." said Logan driving towards Stars Hollow. "And you are the best reporter I know."

Rory rolls her eyes. "I bet you say that to all the reporters you know."

"Only the best." said Logan with a chuckle. "I typically just tell people they are good reporters."

After a bit of small talk about their day, the commute seemed short when Logan pulled into the driveway at their house. "We're home." said Rory. "Honestly feels good to be home." Rory gets out and walks up to the front door with Logan.

"How about you run a nice bubble bath and soak your feet?" said Logan. "And I'll make dinner."

"You're far too good to me." said Rory. "Are you sure you don't want any help?"

"Nope, I got it." said Logan, walking up the stairs with Rory to switch into casual clothes. "How does chicken tacos sound?"

"Really good." said Rory running the bath water in the bathroom while undressing. "Still sure you don't want help?"

"Really not fair to ask me that question without your clothes." said Logan. "But I got it."

Logan goes downstairs to fix dinner and Rory slips into the tub, feeling every part of her relax. She loved the large tub. She felt herself dozing a little when Logan walked in to tell her dinner was ready. Slipping out and at Logan's insistence, just slipping into pajamas, she walked downstairs. Logan had set up a mini-taco bar on the kitchen island.

"Figured we could just eat here." said Logan. "If you want to eat in the dining room, I can move..."

"No it's great." said Rory, sitting down on a bar stool. "Now hand me a tortilla. I totally have plans to make this food disappear!"

A little while later, "So I'm stuffed." said Rory, getting some cookies out of the cabinet before arranging some on a small plate. Logan could only laugh. "Want some?"

Logan shakes his head no. "I really hate to do this to you, but I do have a bit of paperwork to do." Logan said.

"That's alright. I should probably start working on my first article." said Rory. "Plus it's why we have home offices anyways. How about we break in a couple hours and watch a bit of TV before bed?"

"Sounds perfect." said Logan, giving Rory a kiss. "Sorry I had to get one beforehand."

Rory walked into her office with a cup of coffee and her cookies. Setting each down carefully on the antique desk, she couldn't help but smile at how much the desk reminded her of her grandfather. Taking a bite of a cookie and a sip of coffee, Rory started typing on her laptop.

"So forget about our deal?" said Logan. He had quietly walked in.

Rory looked at the clock on her computer. "Oh wow, the time really got away from me. I'm sorry."

"No need for sorry, Ace. You're a hard worker." said Logan. "But I must insist that my two favorite people join me in the living room."

Rory smiled getting the two person comment quickly and stood and walked into the living room. "We actually beat Colin and Finn or Honor?"

"Yep." said Logan. "Just don't tell them - at least not Finn. The others might understand." Rory laughed and they settled in to watch reruns, snuggling into each other.
