Rory and Logan have been dating the last four years and since they've graduated from Yale, Logan has been thinking of proposing to Rory. Hew knew that it'd be nice to ask Christopher and Lorelei if he could marry her. So he had arranged to meet them separately, then surprise Rory with a special evening.
Logan sat at a table at Giovanni's Italian Restaurant to meet up with Christopher. Everytime the door opened Logan would jump up only to see that it wasn't Christopher. He checked his watch and it was 1:30, he had made reservations for 1 and asked Christopher to meet him there. He was wondering what had happened to him. A little while later, Logan saw Christopher and he got up from his chair and put out his hand, then said, "Hello, mister…"
Christopher cut him off, "Just call me Christopher. I am really sorry that I am late. The meeting I had ran late and I was going to call you but I realized I didn't have your cell phone number."
"It's okay. I was just getting anxious," Logan replied.
The waitress came over to the table and took their drink order then said when she came back with the drinks she'd take their lunch order..
When she left, Christopher asked jokingly, "So Logan what do I owe the pleasure of lunch?"
"Well Christopher," he paused because calling Rory's father Christopher sounded funny to himself. "You know that Rory and I have been together for the last four years and I want to commit myself to her completely. Therefore, I would like your blessing in asking her to marry me?" Logan finished quickly because he was intimidated by Christopher.
Just as Christopher was about to answer Logan, the waitress then came back with their drinks and took their lunch orders, leaving Logan to anxiously wait until they had placed their orders. The pause felt like an eternity to Logan.
"Well Logan, everytime I see you with Rory, I can tell that you two are a perfect fit, but…" he pauses, which scares Logan, "you're going to have to ask Lorelei, as well." Christopher answered.
"Oh yeah, I understand that," he replied, "I'm meeting her tonight at the Inn."
"Wow, Logan, you've really planned this out, haven't you?" Christopher said jokingly.
"Well actually I have been planning to ask you and Lorelei for a while, but I finally got the courage to ask you both a few weeks ago. Then it was just trying to plan when I could get together with you both," Logan answered.
The waitress brought their lunches, and they ate and talked about work and sports. Then Logan paid the bill and as they were leaving, Christopher turned to Logan and said, "I wish you luck in asking Lorelei, as well as asking Rory! I'm sure neither of them will say no. They know how much you mean to Rory and vice versa."
"Thanks a lot, Christopher," Logan said as he shook his hand, then they parted ways.
Logan's cell phone started to ring as he made his way back to his apartment.
"Hey Ace," he answered.
"Hey, so are we still on for tomorrow?" Rory asked.
"Of course. Why wouldn't we be?" Logan replied.
"I don't know. Well I've gotta get going, because I have to type up this story for Sunday's paper, so I'll talk to you later sweetie," Rory said.
"I love you and I'll talk to you later."
"I love you too. Bye," Rory hung up the phone.
"Logan, hi. Have a seat in the dining room. Luke's already in there," Lorelei said as Logan walked in the door.
"Is that such a wise idea?" Logan joked, referring to the time Luke wanted to kill Logan at her mother's party.
"Yes. I'll be there in a few minutes." Lorelei answered.
"Okay," Logan said as he found Luke in the dining room. "Hi Luke."
"Logan,"
Logan sat down at the table, but he was a little uncomfortable, then he started to joke around with Luke, so he wasn't nervous anymore. As they were laughing Lorelei came in and asked, "What's so funny? And I'm glad to see you're getting along with each other."
Their laughter stopped, Logan and Luke replied in unison, "Nothing."
"Thanks for waiting. Sookie just needed my help in the kitchen," Lorelei answered.
"Not a problem, and I'll just cut to the chase. The reason that I asked to meet with you without Rory," he paused. Lorelei was making him a little nervous because she was looking at him very intently. "Okay, Rory and I have been together for last four years and she means everything to me, and I wanted to ask her to marry me." Logan paused because Lorelei had made a little squeak. "So do I have the blessing of you both?"
Lorelei jumped in, "Do you promise that you're not going to hurt her?"
"Ms. Gilmore…Mrs. Danes' I promise that I will not hurt her."
Lorelei looked at Luke then finished, "Well you have mine," she answered.
Luke then replied, "Mine, too."
Lorelei finished, "You just have to get in touch with Christopher and ask him."
"I'm ahead of you on that one. I met with him for lunch this afternoon and I asked him then. He had given it to me, so I just had to wait and ask you. Now all that's left is to ask her."
"So when are you going to ask her?" Luke asked.
"She'd be crazy not to Logan," Lorelei said, before Logan could answer.
"This weekend, so please keep this quiet until then," Logan asked.
"Okay," Lorelei answered. "Well, I've got to get back to work and you probably have to get to the diner," She said to Luke. Then they all got up from the table, Lorelei hugged Logan, and Logan shook Luke's hand. Then he was on his way back to the apartment.
