Chapter 16
When Rory got home, she texted Logan and let him know she made it, and then she called her grandmother. They made plans for Saturday and Emily gave her the rundown on protocol for dinner on Friday, then Rory climbed into bed and fell asleep, she was physically and emotionally exhausted.
The rest of the week seemed to fly by and before she knew it, it was Thursday. She and Logan had been talking every night and texting throughout the day; it was simply amazing. She really hoped that the day went by quickly and she was able to take off a little early so she could hopefully get to the house before Logan; but she didn't see that happening, she had been slammed all day and it didn't show any signs of slowing down. Around 1:00 she got a text from Logan saying that he was heading that way and he would see her after work; she quickly replied then got lost in her work, the next time she looked at her phone it was after 5:00. She decided to go ahead and call it a day; there wasn't anything there that couldn't wait until the morning. She sent Logan a quick text saying she was leaving work, grabbed her coat, lunch box, and briefcase and headed out the door.
She wasn't sure why, but she had butterflies fluttering in her stomach and her whole body buzzed with excitement that she was about to see Logan; despite their history, everything felt so new and exciting; she didn't question it or fight it, she just enjoyed it. As she got into her car, she checked her phone and saw that she had gotten a response from him; it said 'see you soon' and had a smiley face and a sunflower. She smiled at the sunflower because he remembered even after all these years that sunflowers were her favorite.
Rory pulled up to her house about 30 minutes later, traffic was terrible and she was exhausted; the only thing giving her any type of motivation to not just put on her pajamas and go to bed as soon as she walked through the door was the fact that Logan was going to be at the house waiting on her. She saw his car parked out front, it was a beautiful little sports car, a F-type Jaguar in a beautiful blue color, and her heart skipped a beat. She pulled around the side and parked in the garage then hurried, well as much as she could hurry with as pregnant as she was, inside to greet him.
She walked through the door and saw flower petals on the floor, they were forming a trail so she followed them; as she came around the corner to the sitting room at the front of the house, she lost her breath for a moment; the entire room was filled with white and yellow candles and there were hundreds of sunflowers all around the room; each arrangement intermixed with carnations and lilies and other flowers whose names she didn't know; it was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen. Logan stood in the center of the room; dressed in a suit and tie with his arms loosely behind his back, he started to walk towards her with a huge smile on his face. "Logan, this is beautiful." She was still taking it all in, this had to have taken him hours to set up.
"Not as beautiful as you are Ace." He replied and kissed her on the cheek. "Lorelai Leigh Gilmore, you are the most wonderful woman I know; you are beautiful and kind and smart and you challenge me to be the best version of myself I could possibly be. The day I met you almost 15 years, I knew that you were the woman I was meant to be with; I know our path has been rocky and windy, and I know that we have had our ups and downs, but from the moment you walked into my life I couldn't imagine ever loving anyone else; I know we have talked about getting married, and have even started planning it out; but I wanted you to have this, you deserve this special moment, this moment where I tell you that I can't live without you and promise you that I will love you until I take my last breath; Lorelai Leigh Gilmore, my Ace, will you make me the happiest man in the world and say that you will be my wife, my partner, and my other half." He got down on one knee and pulled a ring box out of his jacket pocket and opened the tiffany blue box that every women dreams of seeing, "will you marry me?" he asked as he held the ring up to her.
Tears were streaming down her face; this was the most amazing and romantic moment of her life. As she wiped a tear from her eyes she was nodding her head yes. "Yes, Yes, a thousand times Yes! There is nothing in this world that would make me happier than being your wife. I love you so much." He stood up and placed the ring on her left hand, then pulled her into a hug and kissed her so deeply that she felt it through her entire body.
This, this right here was the happiest moment of her life so far and she was amazed by the man in her arms; the amount of love and thought and romance that he put into this just made her heart swell. That he knew how much it would mean to her to have this moment and how 'her' it was just confirmed what she already knew; Logan Huntzberger was her soul mate.
