A/N Thank you for all your reviews, favorites, and follows- it means a lot. I hope that you enjoy this chapter. Please give me your thoughts at the end. ENJOY!

Also just a disclaimer I know nothing about business so any comment I make about it I don't actually know if it makes sense legally but it's my world where I'm playing around with ASP's characters. I don't own anything!

Chapter 6

Francine pulled all the attention in the room to the couple, and handing over announcement duties to Chris he coughed 'it is our great pleasure to announce the engagement of my daughter Lorelai Leigh Gilmore-Hayden III to Logan Elias Huntzberger. My mother Francine and I wish them all the luck in the world and hope that they have a long and happy life together. To Rory and Logan' he was smiling and raising his glass. Rory kissed his cheek, Logan shook his hand. Mitchum just stared at the couple as if he was looking at them for the first time. Shira lost it 'What the hell. Rory Gilmore is the Hayden Heiress!' She shouted over the toast. She spun and looked at Francine 'you tricked me!' she shrieked at the hostess, 'well I heard what you and Mitchum said to her, at the dinner she was introduced to you where she was told she wasn't good enough to marry into your family, then the internship- yes Mitchum I know about that. Then the fact that you are blocking her endeavors to get a job, Mitchum. Oh and don't think I don't know what was said at the family dinner that they announced their engagement. I may not like Lorelai but she at the end of the day is Rory's mother and as your future daughter-in-law you should have respected her enough to keep your mouth shut. I mean calling the mother of Christopher's oldest child a gold digger- if she was a true gold digger she would have married Chris when she was sixteen years old.'

Mitchum grabbed his wife's arm to stop her from responding as Logan stepped in 'Dad, I want an appointment with you at 10 am on Monday at your home office. We have some things to discuss. Now we want to celebrate our engagement and Rory's graduation, preferably where someone,' he looked directly at his mother who was barely being restrained by his father 'won't be able to comment. So please leave.' Mitchum acquiesced, practically dragging an angry Shira away from the group.

As his parents left Logan smiled and kissed Rory on the side of her head ' let's enjoy ok' as Paris walked over with her parents and to Rory's surprise Tristan DuGrey. She hugged her friend and inquired after Doyle, effectively ignoring Tristan, when he butted into the conversation about Harvard Medical School 'So Mary...not much of a Mary anymore are you? You were missed at Harvard. But you went for the legacy in the end though.' Rory nodded 'yes Bible Boy- I did follow the Gilmore legacy to Yale but I did get into Harvard, and Princeton and Yale. I chose Yale because it was the best school for me and I'm glad I did- I never would have met Logan here if I hadn't' Logan's arms were around her from behind the image drastically similar to the Winter Formal in Sophmore year and another boyfriend of Rory's. This time however there was a ring on her finger and she was obviously very happy with him.

Tristan smiled 'well Huntz I wish you all the luck in the world. You've got a good one there. Many a man will be waiting in the wings…' he smirked and walked over to Steph as Rory laughed and Logan looked on apoplectic before Rory's arms soothed him as she turned in his embrace and with her arms around his neck whispered 'I love you' as she kissed him. After pulling back and wiping the excess lipgloss off his lips she turned back to Paris and continued their discussion, turning to the subject of trying to get their security deposit back through the excess use of spackle.

The party continued for another couple of hours, Rory being accompanied by Logan almost everywhere but also being trailed by Gigi until Chris decided it was time for bed for his six-year-old. After promising her that she would see her sister soon Gigi left with very little fuss and many of the guests smiled at the well-brought-up young woman that Logan had chosen. The women of the families were considering the reaction of Shira Huntzberger and how the girl seemed to be. They would talk to their friends- a woman with no family fortune of her own had no right to comment on the worthiness of a true blue-blooded princess that Rory Gilmore obviously was. Shira was going to find herself on the outside of society very quickly.

Monday morning dawned bright and sunny and Logan was looking forward to the discussion that he, along with Richard and Christopher was going to have with Mitchum. Rory was going to be meeting them at noon at the country club for lunch for a debrief. Kissing Rory goodbye as he left to meet his future in-laws at the Gilmore mansion. They were going to meet Mitchum at his home office together, for Logan and Rory had spent a lot of the Sunday night going over what was 'non-negotiable' for them as a couple.

Twenty minutes after meeting Richard and Chris, the three men were at the Huntzberger mansion that for the first 18 years of his life Logan had called home. Richard noticed that he was nervous and placed a hand on his shoulder and said 'we're here as the calvary Logan, we're your support team. This is what you and Rory want right?' Logan simply nodded 'sorry it's just that Rory or my sister has always calmed me down before going in there and Rory's methodology won't exactly work with you two' the older men laughed 'well if it makes you feel better- my Dad would love to say 'screw you to Mitchum Huntzberger' I'm here in his honor' Chris assured and putting on their business faces the men approached the front door, greeting the maid as Logan led them through to where his father's study was.

There were three lawyers sitting with Mitchum and Elias inside the study. Mitchum, who stood at Richard and Chris' entrance started as the other men sat down 'Logan, I see you brought back up, I thought I could use some too' his smile was like Bruce in Finding Nemo all teeth and sinister looking. 'Well, Dad let's just get started. I'm using the shares that I legally inherited upon my twenty-fifth birthday which gives me thirty percent of HPG. My future wife's family owns another thirty. You really should have looked at the terms of my trust fund Dad because I can completely legally by the way call for a meeting of the board and have you ousted out of HPG as CEO, something that I will willingly do unless you listen and act on what I want.' Mitchum was looking at his son he was almost proud of him 'why Logan you decided to leave HPG after that business deal that you lost your trust fund on' he smirked 'yes your right dad I made a bad business decision, but you didn't go into the business side of the company when you started- you were a reporter first, trust me Rory did her research before that god-forsaken internship. But never mind, MY lawyers, are getting our money back from them- turns out sitting waiting for patent infringement is a crime-fraud. I wanted to be a part of HPG just not under your thumb- so here is what I and by extension, my future wife want' he placed a piece of printed paper on the desk between him and his father and grandfather. Tell me your thoughts.'

Minimum Demands of Logan and Rory

Business Trips out of state to have 48hours notice unless an emergency (emergency termed as a lawsuit, something that the editor of the paper can't handle or mass staff shortage leading to the potential collapse of the paper) any other cause of short notice will be noted but Mitchum can no longer demand Logan's presence at less than 48hours notice without explanation.

Business Trips out of the country to have at least 72hours notice and can last no longer than 3 working days unless LOGAN determines it as necessary.

No seconding Logan to foreign destinations for long periods of times i.e. his London secondment after graduation, without consultation with Logan and where necessary Rory.

Calls and emails from Mitchum regarding the business will only be taken between 7 am and 8 pm. Only IF a business emergency occurs as stated above occurs will Logan respond to any pages, calls, or emails. Personal nature calls are of course allowed at any time.

Scheduled business trips will not occur over any holiday or birthday or anniversary and IF an emergency occurs (as stated above) Logan will have the chance to explain why he will be missing events.

Upon Logan's marriage to Rory Gilmore (Lorelai Gilmore-Hayden) he and his wife reserve the right to take an extended vacation of at least three weeks but up to eight weeks for their honeymoon. During that time Mitchum will only contact them regarding the business IF an emergency occurs (as stated above)

Any children that Logan and Rory have will NOT be forced into the family business- they will have the choice of what they want to do. They will be able to have a childhood and will not be expected to attend board meetings at the age of ten. Upon reaching the age of 25 they will have the CHOICE of taking a position on the board.

Logan will be entitled to paternity leave of 8-12 weeks upon the pregnancy and birth of each child. If Rory were to join HPG in any capacity she would receive 6months of maternity leave as a minimum. An extension of these rights is recommended to the board for the entire company.

Rory and Logan will with the assistance and recommendations from family on both sides craft their own prenuptial agreement, but THEY will have the final say not either side of their families.

The Huntzberger Family will respect Logan's choice of wife and WILL NOT degrade her in public or private without justifying their opinion. A private apology will be granted to Rory Gilmore at the earliest opportunity by all those involved in recent degradation.

Mitchum looked up from the paper- he knew he had no choice, every demand was reasonable and well-considered and what's more, it all made perfect sense from a business and family perspective. He passed it to his father who read it and then passed it to the lawyers they had sat with them, nodding. This was a start. This they could work on.

A/N Ok another chapter is done- did I miss anything on the demands? Did you like the appearance of Tristan DuGrey? Give me your thoughts. I love all the reviews. The next chapter will be Rory's graduation, maybe there will be a reappearance from Lorelai...plus other drama! Follow for more :)
