"Rory you will look good in either outfit." said Logan, laughing a little and checking the clock, though they were running a little early. "So I vote for the suit with skirt your mom got you for graduation. I'm sure David will be impressed either way."
"David?" said Rory, switching to the outfit Logan suggested before starting to apply her make-up. "I believe you said he's the editor. I normally do so much research, but this all went so fast."
"Yes, he's the main editor." said Logan, finishing up getting ready. "I already cleared a long lunch so we can pick up the keys to the house."
Rory finishes getting dressed. "So I take everyone knows we're an item? That will be a hard spot to start on there." she said, grateful for the job, but knowing it's always hard when people know how you got the job.
"David and a few others, but it's not extremely common knowledge. Don't worry, you'll blow them away with your skills and in a couple week's time there will be new gossip and no one will care." said Logan, giving Rory a kiss. "Though you may impress them with your skills to run around like crazy as that has to be your fourth cup of coffee since breakfast."
"You know us Gilmore's - 90% caffeine." said Rory, sipping at the coffee as she finishes getting ready. "Okay, let's go Huntzberger."
A little while later, they both arrive at work. After a quick kiss in the parking lot, they both head inside separately. Rory remembers the directions to David's office and peeks in after knocking. "Hey I'm Rory, the new girl." said Rory. "I wasn't sure exactly where I should go."
"Here is perfect. Welcome to the paper and thanks for taking the job on short notice." said David, getting up and walking to the door. He leads Rory to a desk in the main area. "Here you go. You need to report to Susan though to get your picture taken for an ID and badge through the area, though here's a temporary one until it's ready." He hands Rory the temporary ID. "She's down the hall there and to the right. Again, welcome to the team."
Several hours later, Rory meets Logan in the parking lot. "So how was your first day Ace?" asked Logan, walking up and giving Rory a kiss.
"Besides spilling coffee on my skirt trying to make a fresh pot?" said Rory, getting into the car with Logan. "It was actually pretty good. Everyone seems nice."
"I'm glad you're fitting in, though I told you so." said Logan with a wink while driving to Stars Hollow. "Though sounds better than my day. I talked to my landlord earlier. He's wanting me out by Thursday so he can repaint and start giving tours of the place by this weekend." Logan shrugs. "Guess I'll need to rent a hotel room somewhere as the house will be empty even if I got all my stuff moved in by then."
"You could stay with us?" said Rory, figuring Lorelai wouldn't likely mind if just for a few days. "I mean you'd need to hire movers to move your stuff out still, but it would keep you from having to sit in an unfurnished house...plus it beats moving in together at the same time."
"You sure Lorelai and Luke wouldn't mind? I don't want to step on any toes." said Logan, making a turn. "Granted I could just get movers to move what we wanted into the house Wednesday evening and the rest I just plan to get rid of - probably donate - as it's not needed."
"She won't mind, trust me. She was just talking about how she hoped you would feel comfortable around late last week." said Rory. "But if it will make you feel better, I'll send her a quick text." She types it into her phone as they pull up in front of Lavie's office. "It might take her a few depending on what Michel and Sookie are up to, so we might as well go in."
A little while later, they exit with the keys to their new house. "It feels so strange to know it's actually ours. I mean I knew before, but the keys finalize it." said Rory, adding them to her key ring. "Oh, yeah my phone beeped when I was inside, I should check it." She reaches into her jacket pocket. "It says 'Tell Logan it's fine and it's not a big deal. He's welcome any time.' Told you so!" said Rory to Logan.
"Let's go look at the house again...just for fun." suggested Logan, thinking about the idea he got the other night. "I guess I want to see it now that it's fully ours, plus we can discuss layout for stuff. We have a little bit before we have to be back and we can grab sandwiches or something to eat at the office.."
"That sounds good." said Rory, thinking about layouts. "Let's go." They drive up to their new house and walk up to the doorway. Logan unlocks it and surprises Rory with picking her up bridal style.
"Sorry but I always wanted to do this." said Logan laughing and carrying her over the threshold, Rory laughing as well as he sits her down. "Wow, so weird this is all ours...I like that, ours."
"You didn't get drunk somehow when I wasn't looking?" said Rory, looking at Logan suspiciously. After a few moments of walking around and talking about what to put where, she realizes Logan has stopped talking and turns around and gasps at Logan down on one knee with a ring box.
Logan opens the ring box to reveal the same ring as before. "At the risk of you turning me down twice, Rory Gilmore, will you marry me?" asked Logan, looking up at Rory, hopeful.
