Chapter 12

LOGAN POV

I was laying in my hospital bed, thinking about how I got to this point. It's amazing the things that you think about when you have nothing to do but lay around. I was almost thirty, divorced and my cousin had been married to my ex-wife for almost 6 years now. On top of that, she was going to work for my dad. I thought about the day that Rory and I got married.

*FLASHBACK...5 YEARS AGO...LOGAN AND RORY'S WEDDING DAY...*

I arrived at the church earlier than I was supposed to. I needed to be there the moment the she got there. Finn had stayed with her the night before because I wasn't sure that she was actually going to go through with it. Rory and I had been having problems. It didn't help that I had a girl claiming to be pregnant with my kid. Then we found out that my father bought the company that I was working so Rory and I had to move back to New York. She disappeared for about two weeks saying that she needed time to think things through. She wasn't sure if she could handle being back in the society spotlight. I worried that she was going to break off the engagement and run.

I sat in the room at the church and waited for someone to come and tell me that Rory was there. I decided that I would relax a little once she was standing at the alter next to me. Colin and Josh arrived, and they tried to calm me down but nothing would work. I was too nervous that Rory wasn't going to show. About an hour later, Finn walked into the room. "Hey is she here?" I asked Finn.

He stood in the doorway for a minute before he said anything. "Yes Logan. She's here. Her anxiety is high, and she is a nervous wreck, but she is here." Finn said.

"Okay...At least I'm not the only who's nervous." I told the guys. An hour later, we were moving into position in the Chapel. Colin, Finn, Josh and I took our spot at next to the minister. I stood there and waited. It felt like I waited for an eternity for her to walk down the aisle. When I heard the music, I knew that it wouldn't be long before she walked through those doors. When the doors opened, I couldn't help but stare at her. She was so beautiful. I can't even describe how beautiful she looked. It still amazed me four years after I met her that she managed to still surprise me every day...and every day I found myself falling more in love with her than I did the day before. She made her way up to the alter with her dad, Christopher. She stood there in front of me and it took every ounce of will power that I had to not pull her to me and kiss her with everything that I had.

I was tuning out what the minister was saying because I was staring at Rory. All of a sudden, I heard "Logan?" I looked up at the minister. "Your vows?"

I nodded my head. "Rory, my Ace. Before I met you...I didn't know what love was...but then you walked into my life. Over the last four years I have found myself falling more in love with you every day. You have become my best friend, my partner, my soul mate and my other half. I love you, Rory. I promise to always take care of you and support you in whatever you choose to do." I said. I noticed that Rory had tears in her eyes.

"Rory?" The minister said.

"Logan, when I met you...I hated you. But I found myself wanting to get to know you and become your friend. It didn't take long before I found myself falling in love with you. We have had our good times and our bad, but I find myself trying to know more about you...if it's even possible. I love you Logan. I find myself calling you my friend, partner and my other half. I love you with all my heart. I will stand by you till the end of time." Rory said before turning back to the minister.

"Rory and Logan stand here before their friends and family and pledge their love to each other. They pledge their selves not only to each other but also to a life together as partners." He said before pausing. "By the power vested in me by the state of Connecticut, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride." The minister said. I stepped toward Rory and pulled her into the hardest, most gentle kiss ever. When I pulled back, I saw the minister staring at me. "Friends and Family, I would like to present to you for the first time...Mr. and Mrs. Logan Huntzberger."

*End Flashback*

It was one of the happiest days that I had ever had...but then I had to screw everything up and now she was his. I screwed everything up and now she belonged to my cousin...Tristan DuGrey. Rory was Rory anymore and she hadn't been for some time now. For the last almost 6 years, she had been Rory DuGrey.
