Summery: A story of how one night's mistake, can ruin the lives of two people.

AN: Wow, the last chapter is the most reviews I've gotten for this story in one shot! Thank you, you guys are great :). Someone mentioned about how they do not like the agreement to date other people despite being married, which I just want to comment on quickly. You have to remember, to Rory and Tristan this is not a real marriage, it's just a show for their families. Rory does not want to him to feel like she's imposing on him, which is why she suggested it. Hope that answers it :). Also, I know my chapters are short, which is why I'm trying to update so often to make up for it. Now on with the Logan chapter, I hope it lives up to expectations :).

Chapter Six

"Your fridge is worse than my mother's!" Rory yelled at Tristan, as she peaked in his fridge.

"Sorry, I usually work late, so just pick up something on the way home," Tristan yelled back from his room. "Soon as I'm done changing, we'll go get something to eat."

Just then the doorbell rang.

"Can you get that?" Tristan yelled again.

Rory made her way to the door opening it. "Logan," she gasped in shock.

"Hey Ace," he smiled sheepishly.

"Wha- What're you doing here? How did you know I was here?" Rory asked worriedly, glancing down the hall. She was not sure if he knew about Tristan yet, nor how he would react.

"Well, I went to your place to grovel for you forgiveness, and Paris informed me that you had moved out, and gave me this address," Logan explained, looking around the place. "I think it's great you got your own place, this is even better than the pool house."

"Umm, not exactly," Rory said nervously. He didn't know.

"Hey Mar, who was at the door?" Tristan asked coming down the hall, while pulling a shirt over his head. He stopped in his tracks at the sight of Logan. "Hey Huntzberger, been awhile..."

Logan looked from him to Rory. "Ace?"

"Um, Tristan do you think you can give us a moment?" Rory asked nervously. Tristan looked at her eyes searchingly, before nodding his head.

"I'm just down the hall if you need me," he said, reaching over to squeeze her hand before heading down the hall.

As he let go of her left hand, Logan noticed the light catch on something on her hand.

"Rory," he started, his voice trembling a little. "What's going on?"

"Um," Rory started, not able to look at his face. She had no idea how to explain this to him, so she decided just to say it. "Tristan and I are married."

Logan started laughing. "Come on Ace, tell the truth."

Rory looked up into his eyes, tears starting to spring to her eyes. "Logan..."

Logan took a step back shaking his head. "No. No, you can't be married to him. You're dating me right now, as in a relationship. I took the plunge to be a boyfriend for you."

"Logan, just yesterday you said you did not want to be someone's boyfriend anymore," Rory said starring at him.

"So you go and get married? To Dugrey?" Logan said. "He's 10 times worse than what I am when it comes to relationships. Hell, his parents even shipped him off to military school in high school because he was always in trouble. Did you even know that? How much do you even know about this guy?"

"Yes, I do know that he went to military school," Rory said softly. "But he's changed since then. We use to go to high school together."

Logan just starred at her, everything sinking in. He was loosing her. "Rory," he choked out, reaching for her, hugging her to him. "I'm sorry, please give us another chance."

Rory stepped back out of his embrace, he still held her hands. Shaking her head, as tears fell freely down her face. "Logan, I'm tired. I'm tired of trying to make us work. We shouldn't have to work this hard for it to work."

Logan brought a hand to her face, brushing her tears from her face. "I love you though," he said softly.

This caused more tears to fall down her face. "I think it's time for you to go," she said softly.

"No," Logan murmured, shaking his head, before he brought his lips to her's. He put everything he could into it. Trying, hoping she would remember everything good about them from the last year. All the fun they had together.

Rory kissed him back with close to the same intensity, but her's was more of a final good-bye to who she was when she was with Logan. He had changed her, and she wasn't sure she liked that person she was so much when she was with him.

It was Rory who pulled back first. Logan stood there with his eyes closed, still holding her hands. As she pulled her hands from his grasp, he slowly opened his eyes, which bore all the pain he felt right then. Rory slowly walked to the door, opening it.

Logan just stood there with a sad expression on his face, before he started walking towards the door. He stopped before stepping out to turn and look at Rory. He looked into her eyes before saying, "I love you Rory Gilmore..."

Soon as he was out the door, Rory shut it, sliding down the length of the door to sit on the floor. The tears came flooding down her face. She did not want to break up with Logan, but she couldn't keep putting herself through the heartbreak she went through with him. It was time to put a stop to it. In a way this marriage was a good thing, as it would at least make him not try to get her back, where as he would have otherwise. Of course she was not all truthful to him, making it sound like her and Tristan wanted to be married. But it was better this way.

Tristan slowly came into the room, as he had heard the door shut. At the sight of Rory, he went over to her. He took her hands, pulling her to her feet, and wrapped his arms around her, rubbing her back soothingly, just letting her cry.

After a couple minutes, Rory pulled away, wiping her face, as she felt her cheeks heat up. She was embarrass for him to see her this way. "Umm, if you don't mind, I think I'll take a rain check on dinner," Rory said softly, not able to look at him.

"How about I go pick up some take out, that way there will be something in the fridge for you to eat when you get hungry," Tristan offered. "After all, there's nothing in this apartment that is edible."

Rory managed a small smile at that. "Thanks," she said softly. "I think I'm going to go lie down now."

Tristan watched as she quickly darted to her room, the door shutting behind her. He sighed in frustration, running a hand through his hair. He wanted to do nothing more than to kill Logan right now. He did not know what was said between the two of them, he could only guess. But any man who could hurt her like he just did deserved to die, at least in Tristan's mind.

So what did you guys think? Don't worry, this is not the end of Logan! Make sure to review, as it makes me want to update quicker! - Roxy
