Chapter. 5

Rory and Paris are talking about different things at their table when Rory hears a "Hey" behind her. She turns around to see Logan, a little nervous than usual.

"Hey" Rory says back.

They just stare at each other in silence until Paris speaks up.

"As much as I would love to see you two drool over each other, I have to go to the restroom." Paris gets up and leaves.

"Can I join you?" Logan asks.

"Sure." Rory says hesitantly.

Logan sits across from Rory.

"How are you?" Logan says lamely.

"I'm good, I guess. You?"

"Same."

A silence breaks out, a very awkward silence, but Logan soon breaks it.

"Are we ever gonna talk about it?"

"Talk about what?"

"Us."

"There is no us. We're not together."

"I know and that's the problem. If we would just get over ourselves we'd be together."

"Ourselves? Don't you mean yourself?"

"I told you I wanted to be with you and you left."

"That's because I caught you with another girl."

"Because you turned me down that day."

"I didn't turn you down. I was just busy that night."

"Ya, with Marty."

"You know what? I don't want to argue with you. I already feel crappy as it is. I don't need to feel any crappier."

Rory gets up and quickly walks out of the Pub's front door. Logan follows.

"Rory, wait." Logan calls to her.

Rory continues to walk away from Logan.

"Rory, I'm sorry. I feel just as crappy as you, probably more. Are we ever gonna get past this?"

"I don't know." Rory says as she continues to walk away.

"Would you just stop and talk to me?"

"Why? So we could argue and get pissed off at each other again? I don't want to hate you." Logan runs in front of Rory and stops her.

"I don't want you to hate me either. Listen carefully. I want you. And I'm not going to stop until I have you. We may argue, but that's how we are: stubborn as hell. But we're good together, you know that. Just getting there is a little tougher than I had imagined……I want you. Nobody's here to stop us. Nobody's here except us. You don't want this? Fine, but I do."

Rory stares at Logan, questioning in her head. Should she put her heart on the line again? Should she take the jump? Or should she just walk away and always wonder 'what if' ?

"Just us?" She asks Logan.

"Just us."

Rory pauses for a while, looking at her feet. So many thoughts running through her head. She slowly looks up at Logan.

"You jump, I jump Jack."

"Good."

Logan takes a step towards Rory, looks at her in the eye and kisses her. Rory pulls back.

"But don't think you're getting off the hook this easy for your almost 'slumber party'. I'm gonn-"

Logan cuts her off with his lips. And this time Rory doesn't protest.
