Chapter 4: Ch-Ch-Changes

Rory was sitting on the couch working on a few articles for the paper. She had files and papers strewn everywhere. She heard a small noise and looked up to see a little girl standing at the door to the living room.

"How did you get out of bed?" Rory asked gently, than with a sigh added "Come here, Mommy needs a hug."

Riley scrambled over to her mother and got up on her lap. "Story" she said casting her big blue puppy eyes up at Rory.

"Okay, I'll read you a story."Rory said as she stood up and went over to the book shelf. "Which book do you want" she asked the little girl in her arms.

"That one" Riley said pointing to a yellow book on the shelf.

"Okay" Rory said as she pulled out the yellow book titled Curious George. Carrying Riley back to her room she put her in bed than began reading her the book. "George was a very curious monkey, he always wanted to explore new things..." read Rory.

She was almost finished with the book when she heard a knock on the door. 'Who could that be its almost midnight' thought Rory as she put the book down and pulled the blankets over a now sleeping Riley. Walking out to the door she opened it to find a very solemn looking Logan standing there. "Logan what, its almost midnight" Rory said confused.

"I know Ace, but I really needed to talk to you." Logan explained looking up at her. His hands were in his pocket and his shoulders were slumped like he was defeated or something.

"Okay, why don't you come in and sit down. Do you want some coffee?" Rory asked as she opened the door wider.

"Yeah I could really use some."He said taking a seat on the couch.

Rory went into the kitchen and started a fresh pot of coffee, before joining Logan on the couch. "So did something happen today, cause you don't look so great"

"Yea something happened, something big, but I had to do this Rory I need you to understand that." Logan said taking her hand in his. She just simply nodded.

"I've been planning this for awhile but today was when I made things official and told my father."Logan began.

Flashback

Logan had set up an appointment with his Father for that afternoon. He decided that he was done being a puppet to his father's master. So he entered his father's office slightly nervous but anxious to get this over with and finally be free.

"Logan, son what are you doing here" Mitchum asked as he looked up at his son who had just walked into his office.

"We had a meeting Father, I set it up this morning" Logan told him keeping his voice calm but he couldn't help the coldness that slipped out.

Looking at a memo on his desk Mitchum responded, "Right , right here is the message from Cindy, now what did you want to see me about?" he asked but continued going over a file on his desk.

"Father can you please stop working this is an important matter, that needs your full attention."Logan said getting irritated, which happened quickly around his father.

"Yes, son" Mitchum answered putting the file away and looking up at Logan giving him his full attention. " Now what is it."

"Well lets see where shall I start...I guess I could start by telling you that I have been seeing Rory for the past month and a half." Logan said the bitterness very evident now.

Mitchum instantly paled when he heard him say this. Which cause Logan to smirk, "That's right I know about my beautiful daughter, and it seems that you did too except you have known since the beginning."

"Logan listen this was—" Mitchum began.

"No, I'm not finished." Logan snapped interrupting him. "I have let you control my life ever since I was born, but this was the last straw. I quit. I quit this company, this family and most of all I quit being your son." He yelled.

"Logan, you can't just quit I will not allow it." Mitchum yelled back.

"Well you can't control me anymore now can you?" Logan shouted again standing up.

"This is all because of that Gilmore girl isn't it, she put you up to this" Mitchum accused.

"Leave Rory out of this, you've ruined her life enough as it is" Logan screamed, anger was surging through him.

"How could I have possibly ruined her life." Mitchum argued standing up as well.

"Well lets see, how about we start with how Mom and Grandfather told her that she wasn't good enough for our family or how about how you told her she wasn't good enough to be a journalist." Logan shouted his voicing dripping with venom.

"I didn't think she had it, I was doing her a favor." Mitchum tried to defend himself.

Logan laughed harshly at that comment "Yeah right she's an awesome journalist, and you know that. Some favor that was it caused her to drop out of Yale and live with her grandparents, not to mention she didn't speak to her mother for months."

"That's not my fault"

"If you hadn't treated her like that it never would of happened. But wait That's not all you did, you shipped me off to California by threatening her career if I didn't go." Logan spat out.

"I needed you to —" Mitchum tried to argue.

"And than when she got pregnant you kept it from me and told her you would ruin her career if she ever told me." Logan shouted his voice getting louder to drown out his father's defense.

"It was for your own good, son" Mitchum yelled.

"That's bullshit and you know it, but you know what you don't have to worry about me anymore because we are DONE." Logan shouted backing away.

"I'll cut all your money off." Mitchum called out as a last attempt to keep his son, but it failed too.

With a wicked grin Logan turned to him "I finished switching my bank accounts around this morning, I have my own money and you can't touch it." and with that Logan walked out of the office and out of his father's life.

Mitchum sat down at his desk completely defeated, what was he going to do now, he had just lost his son for good and it was all his fault.

Logan walked down the hall to the elevators with a small grin etched on his face as he saw many people looking at him and his father's office. A lot of people heard the argument and by morning all of Hartford would know that Logan Huntzberger was no longer a part of the Huntzberger family or company.

After leaving the office Logan drove to Stars Hollow, and entered a Realtors Office. Going up to the front desk he asked the man sitting there "Excuse me, I was wonde— Kirk? What are you doing here?"

"This is my job or at least it is this week, I think I might go into reality." Kirk responded looking up at Logan.

"Right" Logan said slowly, "Well can you help me than?"

"That depends what do you need.?"

"I want to look at a house"

"Okay well than go outside, walk down the street and you should find some houses there all ready to look at, actually there are a lot of houses to look at in this town." Kirk told him.

"No Kirk, I want to look at a house to buy, a specific one." Logan said, he felt like he was talking to a five year old.

"Is it for sale?" Kirk asked confused.

"Yes, Kirk its for sale, is there anybody else here?" Logan asked annoyed.

"No, I'm the only one tonight. Well actually we're closed I'm just getting a feel for the office today." Kirk explained.

"If you're closed than why does the sign still say open." Logan asked slowly.

"Oh crap, I knew I was forgetting something. Now you wanted to look at a house right?" Kirk asked.

"I'll just come back another time when your open and there is somebody else here." Logan said turning to leave.

"Okay come back soon" Kirk called after him.

End Flashback

Rory sat on the couch silently as she listened to the whole story. She let him tell her everything without interrupting. He did tell her everything except he left out the part about going to Stars Hollow and buying the house. When he had finished she remained quiet, until he asked " Rory you still there?"

"I ...don't know what to say." Rory finally said slowly.

"I had to do this Rory I had to"

"You left your family, Logan they're your family."

"No Rory they are not my family, you are. You and Riley are my family. Logan explained.

Looking up at him Rory could see he was dead serious and really meant what he said. "Do you have enough money to get by for now?"

"Yea, I should have plenty."

"Is that what you were doing when you had that meeting at the bank a couple weeks ago?" She asked gently.

Grinning Logan answered "Yea, and I'm not surprised you figured that one out"

"You stood up for me against your father and your completely committed to me and Riley, I love you, Logan" She said as she leaned forward and wrapped her arms around him, burying her head in his chest.

Wrapping his arms around her he responded softly " I love you too Rory and nothing can change that."

Rory pulled back and looked at him before saying "You look tired, do you want to just stay here tonight?"

"If you want me too" he told her. She stood up and took his hand and led him back to her room. "Rory are you sure about this?" he asked cautiously.

"Just sleep for now." She told him.

"Okay, if That's what you want." He smirked at her and began getting ready for bed. Rory waited till he took his shirt off than she took it and went to the bathroom.

When she came back out he was sitting on the edge of the bed waiting for her. "You're wearing my shirt" he said with a smirk.

"I like wearing your shirt to bed." Rory admitted shyly as she blushed a light red.

"I like you wearing my shirt" he said to her as he reached for her. She walked over and got in bed, Logan slid under the covers after her and pulled her to him.

"Night Logan" Rory mumbled as she drifted off to sleep.

"Night Ace" Logan said kissing the top of her head.

In the middle of the night Logan woke up and could not get back to sleep. So he decided to get something to drink. On his way to the kitchen he peaked int Riley's room and saw her standing up in her crib.

"Can't sleep either?" he asked the little girl as he stepped into her room. She shook her head no. "Howbout we get you some milk will that help?" Logan asked and she nodded vigorously and held her arms up so she could be picked up. He lifted her up and she wrapped her arms around his neck. Logan walked into the kitchen and got out some milk, and fixed Riley a bottle. Than taking it and the girl back into the family room he handed her the bottle and made himself comfortable.

Later in the morning Rory woke up to an empy bed. She stood up and walked down the hall noticing that Riley wasn't in her bed either. But she found both of the missing people when she walked into the family room. Logan was asleep on the couch with Riley curled up on top of him. It was so cute that Rory had to take a picture.

Right after she had snapped the picture Logan began to wake up. He moved a still sleeping Riley off him and sat up.Spotting Rory he said, "Good Morning"

"Hey, you were so cute sleeping with her" Rory said with a smirk.

"Did you take a picture" Logan asked suspiciously when he spied the camera in her hands.

"Yes and your not going to get rid of it ,I like it" Rory told him defensivley.

"I wasn't going to... oh never mind do you want some breakfast?"

"Chocolate chip pancakes please"

"Will do" Logan said as he got up and went into the kitchen. He first started a pot of coffee than began getting out the ingrediants for pancakes.

Even though Rory was comfortable in Logan's shirt she decided to go change before breakfast. When she came out fifteen minutes later Riley was at the table and Logan had pancakes ready. "It smells great" Rory said smiling.

"Anything for you Ace" Logan said as he gave her a quick kiss.

After eating Rory got ready to leave, " Are you going to take Riley to Daycare later?"

"Well I'm just going to set up some interviews for later this week so I can get a job soon, so I'll probably just keep her at home." Logan told her as he got up to kiss her goodbye.

"Okay sounds good, have fun and Riley you behave" Rory said before walking out the door.

An: Okay there it was, I hope you liked it. Everyone guessed right he is going to buy the house but he hasn't told Rory about it yet, That will happen eventually. I thought this chapter was a bit to serious so I added Kirk for a bit of humor. So review if you liked it or even if you didn't.
