Rory woke up to the sound of her phone ringing. She sighed and reached to pick it up, she already knew who it was.
"Hey Babe!" Lorelei said excitedly.
"Hey Mom", Rory said.
"So should we start with the birthday ritual or talk about what happened with Jess", Lorelei asked.
"Mom I'm 23 do we really need to do the whole birthday thing", Rory asked.
"Hey missy! You have only been 23 for 3 minutes. But I guess we will talk about Jess, what happened?" Lorelei asked.
"Mom, do you think it's possible to be in love with two people?" Rory asked with confusion seeping into her voice.
"Of course I do! I mean I have been in love with both Rob Lowe and Luke for 3 years now. And it's working out just fine. Luke does get jealous sometimes though", Lorelei said letting out a small laugh.
"Mom be serious, I need to know", Rory said frustrated.
"What's going on Rory, Why did Jess show up on my doorstep yesterday evening asking for the key to the diner so that he could stay there", Lorelei asked going into serious mode.
"I'm still in love with Logan but i love jess too", Rory told her Mother.
"Oh what a tangled web we weave", Lorelei said sighing.
"Trust me I know", Rory told her Mom.
"Lets think about this later. Now on with our birthday ritual", Lorelei said starting the story of the night that Rory was born.
Later that morning Rory's phone begin to ring once again. She looked at the caller I.D. and was surprised to see Jess's name.
"Hey", She said.
"Hey Happy Birthday", Jess told her.
"Thanks but I have had happier", Rory told him with sadness in her voice.
"I didn't call to make you sad, I was wondering if you wanted to go out to dinner for your birthday", Jess asked her with a hopeful voice.
"Of course I will, what time?" Rory asked.
"I'll come by and pick you up at seven, sound good?" Jess asked.
"Yah it does. Bye Jess. I love you", Rory told him.
"Don't say that Ror, it hurts too much. I'll see you later", He told her hanging up.
A few hours later Rory's doorbell rang.
"Hold on", She called from her room.
She walked out of her room and went to the front door to look out the peephole so that she could see who it was. She didn't expect to see Logan standing there with a large birthday gift, but it is what she saw.
She opened the door and practically jumped into Logan's arms.
"Hey, what was that for", he asked surprised.
"Nothing I'm just happy to see you is all", she told him smiling.
"So what did you get me", she added.
"Well you have to open it and see", he told her smiling.
She then proceeded to unwrap her present and inside was a dog carrier with a puppy inside.
"Oh my God! Logan! No way! Oh my God! I can't believe you got me a puppy!" Rory said excitedly.
"It's a Yorkshire terrier mixed with a Maltese. And it's a girl. I left the whole naming thing up to you", He told her happy that she was happy.
"I'm not sure what to name her, though", Rory said with a pout.
"Maybe you should call Lorelei, she comes up with good names. I mean her dog's name is Paul Anka, " Logan suggested.
"No, I just thought of the perfect name!" Rory exclaimed.
"What", Logan asked.
"Donna Reed!" She exclaimed.
"Donna Reed?" Logan asked confused.
"Yeah, from the Donna Reed Show. It was my favorite show when I was 16. And if my Mom can name her dog Paul Anka then I can name mine Donna Reed", Rory told him happily.
"So do you want to go grab dinner or something", Logan asked her.
"Actually Jess is coming to pick me up soon to take me out, I need to get ready", Rory told him just realizing that is was already five.
"Oh well I guess I should probably get home then", he told Rory while giving her a tight hug.
After Logan left Rory began to get ready. She took a shower then started to pick out a dress. She decided on just a plain black dress. 'It works for every occasion', she thought to herself. She put on some black heels and a white beaded necklace. Then got her white boho bag out of her closet and put all of her things in it.
'Perfect' she thought as she looked in the mirror. A minute later the doorbell rang.
A/N I actually didn't even think about the whole Chad Michael Murray/ Kenzie think when I named Logan's girlfriend Kenzie. So it is just an odd coincidence. And this is not based nor related to The Kenzie/Sophia/CMM thing. And since we brought him up I am thinking about adding him to the story. As much as I love TRORYs he will be a friend only, maybe Logan's cousin or something?
