Thanks for all the reviews! I'm glad you guys like it. Sadly, my next update will take longer since I have to catch up on schoolwork.
Chapter 5
"So you got a week of detention because you received a lap dance during lunch?" Lorelai asked in mock disbelief.
Rory rolled her eyes at Lorelai's choice of words. "No…it wasn't a lap dance. He just shook his stuff in front of me---against my will."
"Was he hot?"
"God! Wipe your drool. You have seen him before. Remember the one with the Australian accent?"
"But, I haven't seen him in his boxers." Lorelai pouted.
"Stop it or I'm telling Luke about your desire to see another man in boxers."
"My baby got her first lap dance in front of the whole school. I am so proud." Lorelai said admiringly.
"It wasn't a lap dance!" Rory exclaimed.
"Did you ever know that you're my hero?" Lorelai sang.
"You're hopeless."
"You're everything I would like to be. And I could fly higher than an eagle, 'cause you are the wind beneath my wings."
It was Friday night. The Yale campus pub was busy as usual. Well almost everything was as usual. Two women were oddly dressed in black and sporting oversized sunglasses. They nursed their coffees in the corner booth. They were unaware to their own conspicuousness for they were none other than the Gilmore girls.
"We need a game plan." Rory whispered to her partner in crime.
"Yes, we need to avenge your lap dance virginity. They ruined my plan to buy you your first one when you turn twenty-one." Lorelai joked.
"You are too obsessed with lap dances. I'm going to call Dr. Phil and give you a much needed intervention."
"I'll have to recount certain events that lead to my obsession though. I wonder if the Hot Dog boxers would be too steamy for midafternoon television programming. Maybe Dr. Phil would even blush. Oh oh…maybe they will even ask for a reenactment."
"You are evil!" Rory laughed at her antics. "Anyways, let's get serious. We have to track our opponents. Know their routine and eventually they will reveal their weaknesses. Exploit them and revenge is ours."
"Look who's evil now."
"Hey! They should know better than be the object of a Gilmore's scorn."
"Don't look now but the blonde is leaving." Lorelai's gaze afar.
"Let's follow him."
Lorelai threw a twenty on the table to pay for their coffees.
They got out in time to see him turn the corner and enter a residence. However, when they entered he was nowhere in sight. At the end of the hallway, they were met with separating paths.
"Mom, let's split up so we don't lose the trail." Rory whispered. She signaled for Lorelai to pursue left and she went to the right.
She peered around the corner searching for the blonde. There was no sign of him. It was just a dimly lit, empty hallway to a dead-end. If he resided in one of these dorms it was too late to figure out which one. Disappointment overcame her over the apparent failure of the stakeout.
"Are you looking for me?"
Rory jumped at the sound of the voice behind her. She turned to face the smirking blonde.
"No..." She stuttered having been caught off guard. Then she noticed that smirk and regained her anger. "What if I am? I'm onto your routine. I'll strike when you least expect it."
He was unfazed by her threat. "So you were looking for me, well I'm flattered." He said as he moved closer to Rory. She gasped as she backed into the wall. He leaned in close to her with his arm on the wall for support. She could smell the sweetness of his aftershave mingling with his sweat and she cursed herself for the weakness in her knees. She lost her ability to run away.
"I know a lot about you too, Rory Gilmore of Stars Hallow." He continued. His heated breath contacted her face as a result of their close proximity.
"How?" She asked meekly. She looked down, unable to look him straight in the face.
"Seems like your friends are quite smitten with our Finn."
"Madeline and Louise." She cursed under her breath.
"I have to say, I'm looking forward to you following my every move. Here, let me help you." He grasped her hand. She flinched on contact but he held on tightly. He used his free hand to tilt her head up. His eyes reassured her. He wrote his name, phone number and address in blue pen on the palm of her hand.
"I'm glad I have the ability to make you speechless." He teased. "See you around, Ace."
He left her standing there wondering if the tingling feeling she felt was heartburn. However, she was sure of one thing; Logan Huntzberger was going to be googled tonight.
A/N: Thanks CoCaCoLa29, you probably noticed I used your idea about the 'Hero' song. Also about Logan using the nickname Ace, I assumed Madeline and Louise told him about Rory's aspirations to be a journalist.
