Thanks for all the reviews! I really appreciate them!
This chapter would have been up much sooner but I wrote nine pages of this chapter. Then I decided I didn't like it. So I started over. To be honest I still don't really like it. But it's better than the last one.
This is the same chapter, But Alot of people pointed out I made an error with Colin calling Rory his girlfriend, Sorry! I guess I need to proof read better! Thanks for telling me :)
It was four o'clock sharp when Rory and Steph stepped outside their dorm wearing the ball gowns and blindfolds.
"God, I hope this is an actual organization and not just some elaborate way for us to be murdered." Steph said as they stood outside the dorm.
"Why would you say something like that? To scare the crap out of me, cause if that's your goal it's working." Rory said shortly still upset about her situation with Logan.
"If your going to be snippy this whole time because you screwed up with Logan then we are going to kindly ask these kidnappers to borrow their cell phone so you can call him." Steph told her.
"You are aware it doesn't constitute as kidnapping if we are going willingly?" Rory asked disregarding Steph's previous comment.
Just then Logan and Colin walked up and listened to the conversation the girls were having.
"Fine Just ignore the situation with you and your boy toy but eventually your going to have to admit you screwed up." Steph told her.
"I did screw up, I didn't handle the situation correctly, Hell I didn't handle the situation at all. I'm afraid and you know why." Rory said sadly.
"I know, He'll understand. But you've got to give him a chance to." Steph reassured her. "Thanks, Steph." Rory said gratefully.
"I'd give you a hug but well, knowing my luck I'd trip and fall and you'd go down with me." Steph laughed as Logan and Colin finally decided to take the girls to the escalade.
Logan gently took hold of Rory's arm and Colin did the same to Steph. "Hello there!" Steph said cheerfully as she felt someone grab her arm.
"Are we allowed to talk? Allowed to ask questions? Will you answer my questions? What's your name? Who picked out my dress? They have fabulous taste you know. Can I borrow your cell phone?" Steph questioned.
"Steph, If you don't stop asking questions they are going to kill us even if that wasn't there intent to begin with." Rory said causing someone in the front to laugh.
"Seriously Can I borrow your cell phone, I won't give away any super secret information or anything." Steph promised as she held out her hand. Colin handed her his cell phone.
"Thank you mystery man.. I am assuming you're a man, so don't be insulted if your not." Which again made someone in the front laugh.
Steph opened the phone "All these years of dialing without looking at the numbers are really coming in handy." Steph thought out loud.
She hit send and the minute she did Logan's cell started to ring. Steph hung up the phone and the ringing in the car stopped. "Either that's a coincidence or Rory your lovely boyfriend kidnapped us."
"You caught us." Colin said. "I knew that laugh sounded familiar, Finn!" Steph concluded. "Can we take off the blindfolds since we know who you are now?" Rory finally spoke.
"Our Location is to be kept confidential, Love." Finn told her. "I see. How Long is the drive?" she questioned.
"About and hour and a half." Logan said softly. "Thanks." Rory said looking in the direction in which his voice came in.
"Why were you calling Logan's cell, Steph?" Colin asked. "Oh, Um. No reason. Just to say hi." Steph lied. "Are you lying to us?" Finn asked noticing her hesitance. "Just let it go." Steph said. Everyone could tell by her tone that she meant it.
"So, umm. What's the Life and Death Brigade anyways?" Rory asked feeling uncomfortable with the silence.
"All in good time." Colin told her. "Mean." Rory whined.
Logan stared at Rory, Which he knew was stalkerish considering she couldn't see him. He wanted things to be different. He wasn't sure how he'd work the event now that she probably hated him.
The rest of the drive had been quiet, No one knew what to say.
Finn stopped the SUV and jumped out muttering something about alcohol. Rory heard Logan and Colin talking in hushed tones.
"We'll escort you to the sleeping areas then you can take the blindfolds off." Colin said. Colin took Steph's hand and lead her to a cabin.
Logan cautiously took Rory's and lead her to a cabin as well. Rory took of the blindfold once she was in the cabin.
She looked around with wide eyes. Logan loved that about her. No matter how simple things were she seemed to always see the beauty in it.
"It's beautiful…and big." Rory observed. "It's a double. We were supposed to share but if you don't want to then Colin said he's switch with you if you wanted to room with Steph instead." Logan informed her.
Rory looked at him she could tell that he was hurt and she knew she caused it. "No, I want to say in this one, With you." Rory said confidently.
"You sure?" Logan questioned. "I don't want to make you uncomfortable." He continued. "Logan, We've slept in the same bed before. Unless you don't want me to stay with you?" Rory sensed something was wrong.
"No, I do. It's just after last night. I thought things were weird." He explained. "Things are only going to be weird if we make them weird." Rory said sitting on the bed.
"I didn't mean for my feelings to come out like that. I wasn't going to say anything for a while." Logan admitted. "It was truth or date with Finn. Nothing is ever safe when Finn is involved." Rory told him trying to lighten the mood.
"You just left." Logan said out of the blue. "I know I just..." Rory said before Finn walked into the cabin. "I must escort one Lorelai Gilmore to the stage."
"Alright, I'll see you later?" Rory asked Logan. Logan nodded. Rory gave him a gentle kiss "Bye." she said quietly as she linked arms with Finn and walked out.
Logan watched her as she left. "Damn Finn! His timing is always less than impeccable isn't it." He thought to himself.
Finn began to lead Rory out to a wooden stage in the middle of a clearing. "Are we even in the State of Connecticut anymore?" Rory asked.
"I again, Am not authorized to tell you." Finn said casually. "I'll wait till your drunk." Rory mumbled under her breathe.
"I won't tell you when I'm drunk either, Love. The LDB has severely threatened everything I hold near and dear to my heart if I give any information about anything away. Sober or Drunk." He informed her.
"Oh! Common pleaseeee!" Rory pouted. "No, I am sorry. Ask Logan maybe he'll slip." Finn told her. "Logan seems to think I hate him. THANKS TO SOMEONE!" Rory gave him a pointed stare.
"I hadn't a clue you'd just walk out on him!" Finn defended.
"I was afraid Finn, I don't have the best track record with relationships. And Yes, I love Logan but if I tell him is it just going to be another big cycle like with Tristan. Because as different as they are they do have a lot of the same qualities." Rory said not realizing she let it slip that she did in fact love Logan.
Finn stared at Rory. "What?" Rory questioned. "You just admitted you love Logan." He said slightly shocked. "I most certainly did not." Rory said trying to walk away but then realized she didn't have a clue as to where she was going.
"Ror?" Finn said gently.
"Fine! I do, How can I not? He's been nothing but sweet and gracious and honest with me. He went to Jail for me! He hasn't pushed me to do anything I don't want to do. Which I know is probably killing him because Logan was used to sex every what other day if not more? He's sacrificed for me. He tells me he loves me and I walk away. I am a horrible person!" Rory rambled.
"Love, Calm down. And to be fair. I went to jail for you too." He said trying to relax her. "Yes, You did and I want to thank you for that again." Rory took deep breathes to prevent herself from having a panic attack.
"No problem.." Finn was about to continue but then he realized he had to get Rory to the stage. "Oh Shit!" he yelled as he grabbed her arm and pulled her towards the stage.
As they came running through the clearing. "FINN WAS INCHARGE OF HER! WHOSE MORONIC IDEA WAS THAT!" Robert yelled.
"Shut up, I am only five minutes late. That beats the last time by an hour!" Finn defended himself. "And as much as I adore Ms. Gilmore here. I most certainly wasn't doing what I was doing last time!"
"Eww Finn! That's really to much information." Rory said. "Can we get on with this?" Juliet yelled impatiently from the crowd.
"You wouldn't be so crabby if you ate something!" Finn screamed back. "Lets get the first half of the induction started!" Colin chimed in.
"Lorelai Leigh Gilmore the Third is our first inductee of the night." Colin said walking over to Rory. "Ms. Gilmore. We would like to invite you to be apart of our organization. However, We are about Trust and Loyalty. You must agree to doing the tasks that will be asked of you later now." Colin informed her.
Rory nodded. "I agree." Colin smiled at her "Good. Any member of the Brigade who wants is allowed to ask you one question. These questions can be on any topic and they can be as personal as they like."
"Ok." Rory said a little warily of what she was going to be asked. "Each member will introduce themselves and ask you one question. After their first question you do not have to answer them." Colin informed her.
"Some of the LDB members tend not to acknowledge that there is a one question limit." he said eyeing Finn.
"I plead the fifth!" Finn exclaimed putting his hands up. "You may begin the questioning." Colin said to the members.
"Hi, My name Samantha. Do you go by Lorelai or do you have a nickname?" she asked pleasantly.
"I go by Rory not Lorelai because that's my moms name as well. Less confusion that way." Rory said smiling as she remembered Logan not realizing Lorelai and Rory were the same person when they first met.
"I'm Craig. You smiled as you told answered Sam's question. Why?" He asked.
"When I first met my boyfriend I introduced myself as Rory and he then began badmouthing someone named Lorelai that his father wanted him to date in front of me, Not realizing I was who he was badmouthing." As Rory spoke of the memory Logan smiled. It definitely was not the best first impression he had ever made.
"Bet he felt like an ass." Craig commented. Rory smiled and nodded. The next guy came up "I'm Brett. You said boyfriend, Who is he?"
Rory hesitated for a moment, Her and Logan relationship really wasn't really known to anyone but their friends. "Logan Huntzberger." she said as confidently as she could.
"Wow." was all that Brett could say. "I'm Tori. Your exclusive with Logan?" she asked. Rory couldn't tell if she was angry or not.
"Yeah." Rory said quickly. "Bout damn time!" Tori exclaimed "You're officially a legend."
Rory was glad that there was at least one girl that wasn't going to try and kill her.
About twenty more members asked Rory various questions ranging to her favorite food to the color of her bedroom. She was hoping that things were going to end on a positive note but that was before it was Colin's turn to ask her a question.
"I'm Colin." He said pleasantly. Rory gave him a confused look. "Who was the last person you were in love with?" He asked.
Rory glared at him. "Tristan DuGrey." Colin just smiled and walked away as Robert approached her. Rory knew they were up to something.
"As you know, I'm Robert. And just so you know I was paid off to ask this question. Are you afraid of being in love again?"
Rory sighed she should have known she wasn't going to get off easy. "Yes, I am afraid to be in love again. I don't want to get hurt again."
Rory was looking at the ground when the next person came up. "I'm Finn." He said as she looked up at him. "Your doing fine love, Steph some how managed to paid people off in the short time we've been here." Finn whispered.
Rory nodded "Ever have a pillow fight with a sexy Australian?" Finn smiled. "Why yes, Yes I have." She laughed and gave him a hug.
Logan walked up to her and looked at her in the eye. He had to ask her this question, He knew she was going to get upset but he had to ask her.
"Are you afraid to love me because I remind you of Tristan?" He asked quietly. "YOU DIDN'T INTRODUCE YOURSELF!" Finn yelled.
"I'm Logan." he said rolling his eyes waiting for her to answer him. "I…I…"Rory stuttered as tears welled up in her eyes.
"Yes." She said defeated as she began to sob. "I know your not the same. I know you'd never do that to me but you just have such similar qualities and backgrounds. I'm afraid that I'll start to bore you like I did Tristan." And with that Rory ran off the stage with Juliet and Steph following her.
Logan ran his hand through his hair and sighed. "Don't worry about it, Mate." Finn said. "She'll come around. That guy did more damage to her then we thought."
"I'm not Tristan, I'm not a horrible person like he is…" Logan trailed off. "Or maybe I am." He continued.
"No, Your not like Tristan at all. Sure you've got blonde hair and your rich but you will never be like him. You may have been a playboy but you'd never cheat on her. You may get angry with her but you'd never ever dream of hitting her." Finn reassured him.
"She's the first girl I've ever felt this much for. I thought I loved Crystal but compared to what I feel for Rory. It was just a crush." Logan confessed.
"I know. Now lets go get you drunk!" Finn exclaimed leading Logan away.
"Ror, You know Logan wouldn't ever treat you like Tristan don't you?" Steph asked. Rory nodded. "Then you need to forget about him. He's not going to come back. Tristan is in your past for a reason. Logan's in your future." Steph told her.
Rory sniffled and laughed. "My god that was corny, and could I be any more dramatic. I am surprise you guys even want to be my friend I've done nothing but cause Drama."
"At least it wasn't drama because you were drunk, Because we have enough of that with Finn." Juliet joked.
"I've got to go find Logan." Rory said. "And hope to god that he can forgive me for being so dramatic about the whole thing." Rory said wiping her eyes and running out of the cabin.
"Lets follow her!" Steph exclaimed as the two girls hurried out of the cabin behind Rory.
Rory searched the grounds looking for Logan but she couldn't find him she saw Finn and decided to ask him.
"Finny, Where's Logan?" She asked. "Love, I'm with The lovely Rosemary. I've told you never to interrupt me when I am trying to charm a girl into my bed for the night!" He said dramatically.
"Finn, I'm not sleeping with you tonight." Rosemary insisted. "You say that now." He directed towards Rosemary then turned to Rory. "Check the bar, He's probably trying to drink the night away." Finn pointed.
"Thanks." Rory mumbled before running off in the direction Finn pointed to.
Rory saw Logan sitting at the bar alone. The look on his face broke her heart and knowing that she put it there made her feel even worse.
Rory walked up and sat on the stood next to him. "Hey there, Stranger." She said quietly. He looked over at her and he felt a small pang of hope.
"Want to go somewhere private, So we can talk?" She asked. He nodded and took her hand. They walked over to a bench that was on the edge of the clearing.
"Can I first say that I am officially the biggest drama queen ever, I think I am giving Finn a run for his money." Rory said trying to lighten the mood.
"I think he'd be willing to fight you for the title." Logan laughed lightly. "Logan, I'm really sorry. I know it took a lot for you to say what you said and I just brushed it off." She told him.
"I get it. You don't feel the same way. I can deal with it." Logan replied completely forgetting what Finn had told him earlier.
"That's not it. Not even close. I do feel the same way, I was just afraid to admit it." She said softly looking down at her hand that was entangled with his.
"What?" he asked slightly caught off guard about what she said. "I said I love you Logan!" Rory exclaimed. He stood up bringing her with him and crashed his lips into hers.
Rory felt like nothing could go wrong when she was in his arms. They broke apart when they started to hear applause.
Rory looked around to see almost everyone in the LDB clapping for them. "Oh my god!" She said burying her head into Logan's chest. Logan just laughed as he kissed the top of her head.
"Alright! Show's over, Go back to your cabin or someone else's." Logan said causing everyone to laugh "Just get some sleep or we won't wake up early enough to do the stunt tomorrow!" Logan yelled.
Everyone slowly left until Logan, Rory, Colin, Steph, Rosemary and Finn were left standing there. "I take it everyone knows everyone's true feelings now." Steph asked.
"Well, Logan and I do. I'm still not absolutely sure about you and Colin. But I guess that's a different topic for a different day." Rory said still resting her head on Logan's chest.
"And on that note. I'm leaving. Common Colin!" Steph said grabbing his arm and pulling him away.
"We should go to. Especially since Finn is probably tempted to go get more alcohol I guess I'll just have to occupy him." Rosemary winked.
"And boy do I love being occupied!" Finn said following her.
Logan looked down at Rory. "I love you, Ace." he said quietly. "I love you to Logan." she said hugging him and giving him a gentle kiss.
"Did Steph ever get her induction questions?" Rory asked. Logan shook his head "We'll do it tomorrow, Why?"
"Because I am so going to pay people off to ask questions about her and Colin!" Rory said grinning evil. "That's my sweet girlfriend."Logan joked as they walked back to the cabin.
So that was the next chapter. Like I said, I don't like it at all but i've already written it twice and this is as good as it's going to get. I know it's corny and by the book but it's seriously all that I could think of. The first draft was even worse.
So, Before anyone reviews me and tells me my idea was unoriginal, I know.
The stunt will be next chapter so don't worry. Also Logan won't be as emotional as he is in this chapter, Because he comes off as kind of a baby in this one.
