I luv you guys! Not even chapter 30 (as I was aiming for) and I already have over 400 reviews! You rock! Ok, you reviewed soooo much, that I thought I would treat you to a chapter, plus, I was dying to update anyways. I have a huge sunburn and have to get up early tomorrow, so this will probably be a short chapter. It is also a filler (stories seem to get so boring when they have babies, abues can't do anything, they just make it harder for the writer to make the parents do things). Anyways before we start, I would like to direct your attention to the little baby name poll I made you take. Results for first names and middle names are posted below.

"Welcome home Ace" Logan said, opening the front door of the apartment for her
"It's good to be back" Rory spun around, taking in the familiar room
"I've already set up a makeshift baby room and hired a nanny to take care of her while we're at school." Logan said, coming in behind her, pushing the baby in her stroller
"Thanks so much Logan" Rory looked at him, eyes shining
"I can think of quite a few ways to thank me" Logan said, a mischievous look in his eyes
"Logan..." Rory said warningly, yet smiling. Logan wrapped his arm around her and pulled her into a passionate kiss. "Logan, not in front of baby!" Rory said, pretending to be shocked
"So just because we become parents, I have to stop kissing you? Geez, I didn't know that was part of the deal" Logan said playfully
"Oh hush you" Rory smirked and leaned in to kiss him
"Hey you!" somebody screeched from the open door way
"Hi Steph" Rory went to hug her friend
"Your finally back reporter girl" Colin trailed after Stephanie, greeting Rory
"God luv, you just get in, and your best mates come to see you, and we find you snogging, in front of the baby no less. You have stooped too low" Finn was in mock horror
"You know, we're going to have to stop calling her 'baby' soon" Rory said, smiling
"Well your the one that spent fourteen hours in labor, you have full credit in naming her" Logan laughed
"Oh I already know what her name is" Rory said, "I just haven't told you"
"Oh my god!" another voice shrieked from the door
Rory whirled around, "Lane?"
"In the flesh baby, long time no see!" Lane ran into the room and hugged her best friend
"I can't believe I let myself drift so far from you, I almost forgot what you looked like" Rory joked
"Its been way to long. Oh my god, is that her?" Lane rushed over the the tiny baby in the stroller, "She's adorable, what's her name?"
"Rory won't tell" Finn pouted
"Tell me Ror, I'm the girls godmother after all" Lane said
"And I'm her godfather!" Finn exclaimed, as though just realizing it
"Wow, how did that happen?" Rory laughed, teasing Finn
"Don't change the subject Ace, what's my baby's name?" Logan came up behind her, wrapping his arms around her shoulders
"Well her first name is Lorelai, after her mother and grandmother and great great grandmother, but we will call her Reilly for short" Rory said slowly
"Reilly? How is that derived from Lorelai?" Colin asked, confused
"You could ask the same thing about the name Rory" Steph pointed out
Rory continued, "Her middle name is Rose, because that sounds nice either way, Lorelai Rose and Reilly Rose. Then of course her last name will be Gilmore-Hayden-Huntzberger"
"Thats quite a mouthful for such a little girl" Steph said, taking Reilly out of her stroller
"She really is perfect Ror, she's like a mini version of you" Lane said, stroking the baby's head
"Ok, this is getting mushy, I say we hit the bar" Finn said curtly
"Finn! We can't do that!" Rory exclaimed
"Uh, why? We have before" Finn was confused
"But that was different, now I'm a responsible parent" Rory said
"You parent's are boring" Finn said passively
"Hey! I promise you Finn, one night, very soon, I will ask the nanny to stay late, and we will go out and party" Rory swore, smiling
"I'll hold you to that luv" Finn looked at her seriously, though everyone just laughed, even Reilly

"Rory?" a shrill voice inquired
"Hi Grandma," Rory sighed, holding Reilly in one hand, and the phone in the other
"How are you dear?" Emily cooed
"Um, fine" Rory said warily
"You keeping up in your classes, everything working out with the baby?" Emily asked further
"Yeah, it's been great actually. Logan hired this really great nanny. She takes care of the baby while I go to classes, or run errands, or do whatever I need to do, and while Logan goes to work. His father has put him in charge of this newspaper a few miles away. The nanny is on our beck and call, it's great." Rory gushed happily
"That's wonderful, now listen Reilly was born in July, correct?" Emily asked
"Yes, July 14th" Rory was curious as to her Grandmothers motives
"And it's December now" Emily continued
"Yes, I heard something about that" Rory replied
"And what happens in December?" Emily says slowly
"Christmas? Santa?" Rory guessed
"I'll give you a hint, it's kind of like what happens in November"
"I really have no idea Grandma"
"Think parties, think society"
"Oh, the débutante ball was in November" Rory realized
"Yes, good, now your getting it"
"But I already had that"
"Not for you silly"
"For Reilly? I didn't think she could be a débutante till she was in high school" Rory was shocked
"It's not a débutante ball, its only similar. In December, any five month old baby, born of society of course, must officially be introduced to society"
"That's a débutante ball!"
"Not really, because it's for infants, not young women. You and your mother were both presented at such an event, though you of course don't remember it"
"I'm guessing you want us to present Reilly at this ball"
"You guessed correctly. The ball is two weeks from today, December 17th. It's at six o'clock in the Gold Room, at the Starlite Foundation. It starts at seven, but be there at six to practice. It's fairly easy, you've done basically the same thing before, except this time you will be escourted by Logan, and you will be holding Reilly I've got to run, I trust you to find suitable outfits. Goodbye Rory" Emily quickly hung up the phone
The front door of the apartment opened, and Logan walked in, "Hey," he kissed her in greeting, "Anything wrong? I lost my key and was knocking on the door. When you didn't answer, I had to go downstairs at ask the lobby for a spare"
"Sorry, I suddenly had an urge to play Greenday as loud as the speakers would go"
"You played Greenday for our baby? I hope it was the old Greenday, their new stuff sucks"
"Oh, and then, did I mention, my Grandmother called? Inviting, no thats to kind of a word, commanding, us to present Reilly to society on December 17th, in the Gold Room of the Starlite Foundation. Apparently, that's what everyone does" Rory said sarcastically, "My grandmother wants a mini-me, but better. Make sure she gets it right from the begining this time"
"Hey it won't be so bad" Logan assured her
"Easy for you to say, you never had to be a débutante"
"Can't argue there. Tell you what, after the débutante thing is over, you and I will take a trip"
"What about Reilly?"
"We will only be gone for a few days, the nanny, or your mother if you ask her, will be glad to babysit for a while. You have been overworking yourself so much lately"
"I just want to feel like I'm being a good parent"
"You are, but even great parents take vacations. We'll go to Paris, you always tell me how you want to go there, to sit on the riverbank to read and think"
"You know me too well Huntzberger, Paris it is"
