Chapter Seven- Rory, Lorelai; Bill, William
At exactly 6:45, Logan knocked on Rory's door and waited patiently.
"Hey," she said, smiling as she opened the door. He kissed her quickly as she let him in. Lorelai sat on the couch, smiling as she watched the interaction.
"You've met my mom, Lorelai," Rory said, indicating the curly-haired woman on the couch. "Mom, you've met Logan."
Lorelai smiled. "Hi. Wow, you look different with clothes on!"
Logan smiled, and nodded, looking to Rory not knowing what to say.
"So, Mom," she said, changing the subject. "Where are we going to eat?"
"Well, my darling Lorelai-Number-Three, I was thinking…Luke's?"
Rory smiled. "Thank God! I miss those burgers. And now that you two are back together, they won't be burnt! Let's go!"
Rory and Lorelai grabbed their coats, and left the room, with Logan close behind. As they made their way to the car, Logan put his arm around Rory's shoulder and smiled.
"So, Lorelai-Number-Three?"
Rory laughed. "Yes, my name is Lorelai. Rory is short for Lorelai."
"How?"
Rory thought for a minute and smiled. "I have no idea…But how is 'Bill' short for 'William'?"
"Fair enough. Rory…Lorelai…Rory…Lorelai…Nope…still don't get it." Logan said, partly to herself. Rory smiled at the look of confusion on his face.
As they neared the car, Rory turned to her mother. "Since we're driving back to Stars Hollow, do you want to take both cars?"
"Sure, kid. I'll see you at Luke's," Lorelai said as she headed off in search of her Jeep. Rory and Logan got in her car, and she started the engine.
Suddenly, she gasped. "Logan, I just remembered. We're going to Luke's."
Logan laughed. "You've been saying that for the past ten minutes. How can you forget-"
"No, Logan. Remember at my grandparents' vowel renewal? First my mom came in, then my dad…then Luke…"
"Oh,"
"Yeah. Are you okay with that?"
"As long as I keep my hands where he can see them, I guess."
Rory smiled. She opened her cell phone, and dialed a number as she backed out of the space.
"Mom…"
"Yeah, one and only, what's up?"
"We're going to Luke's…"
"Yeah, babe. I thought we established that?"
"No, Mom. Luke. Vowel renewal. Logan. Death."
"Oh, yeah. You're right. Okay, I'll call Luke and warn him."
"Okay, thanks."
"Yep, bye."
Rory hung up and smiled at Logan. "All taken care of." Logan smiled, and slowly took her hand.
Rory shivered as he intertwined his fingers with hers. They rode the rest of the way in silence.
A/N: Yes, I know it's short, but...It works, I guess. More to come, I promise. If it sucks, tell me. I can handle it. Haha. -Brity-
