Chapter 13

Logan and Rory returned to Rory's dorm about 4:00. "How can you buy this much stuff? Your credit card must be tired!" Logan exclaimed putting Rory's bags on her bed.

"My card is never tired! Especially when you insist on paying! Now shoo! I only have 4 hours to get ready for our date!"

"Okay, I'll be back around seven to get ready," he replied walking out of the dorm.

Logan walked to the Harvard admissions office. He didn't want to be two hours away from Rory every day so he had an interview with the admissions officer and he would tell her if and when he got in. If he didn't get in he would just tell her with a little bit of bad news.

"Hello Mr. Huntzberger, I'm Tally Burns," said the elderly admissions officer.

"Please, call me Logan Mrs. Burns."

"Okay Logan, I have gone over your transcripts and they are amazing. I also see that you are a good writer and wrote for the Yale Daily News."

"Yes. That is correct. I also plan on trying for your newspaper here, the Harvard weekly."

"Well that is good to hear. I also see that when you applied for fall admission you got accepted. Why do you choose Harvard now?"

"Well the curriculum here is a lot better. It's more challenging and from what my sister says they have more interactive classes."

"Interesting, well Logan, we will contact you when we have made a decision. Thank you," she said shaking his hand.

He couldn't believe it. He may get a chance to be with Rory. He went to the Harvard library and pulled out his cell phone.

"Hi, I'd like to make a reservation for two under Huntzberger...tonight... seven days," he said to the woman on the line.

Logan walked into Rory's dorm at 7:00 and didn't see her. He went into her room and saw a note sitting on Rory's bed.

We have kidnapped Lorelei Leigh Gilmore.

If you ever want to see her again show up outside of the Yale library at midnight with 1,000,000 dollars.

Logan was freaking out. But the reporter in him decided to see if there were any other clues left. He didn't find anymore in the bedroom so went to check the bathroom. As soon as he walked in there he saw a tape recorder. "Logan," he heard Rory's voice whisper. "I am pretending to go to the bathroom to tell you this, so you better love me. Call the police, tell them what is going on and meet them at midnight, I love you." As Logan finished playing the tape a tear slid down his cheek.
