An: I love my reviews so keep them coming!! We have a little more Rogan action before we get back into the whole Tristan thing. But trust me it's worth it. I know that you all said that you loved the first story What should have been but it wasn't I who took it down. Complain to higher ups!!
CH 5The truth and games beginning
I'm listening to my voicemails sitting in my car outside the apartment before heading inside to finish packing when I see Logan's Porsche drive up behind me. Wondering why he's here, I shut the phone and get out. "Hey" I say not sure what else to say. He doesn't look pissed off, but confused, almost lost.
"You said that I deserved the truth" he says closing his door and coming closer to me.
"You do" I state.
"You can start by explain two things to me" he says and I look at him weird. One has to be the car, I guarantee it.
"The car and why the hell I haven't seen you in that dress before" he smirks. I have to laugh, I couldn't help it. He's still the same Logan that I wanted to want me three years ago.
"I take it you like it" I say flirty with him.
"Definitely" he says checking me out and stepping even closer. I can smell his cologne and it's intoxicating.
"It's my car from High school, my dad had it in Boston" I state as he traps me between him and the car. He's so close all I want to do is kiss him.
"But that would make you…" he starts realizing that I'm not the same person he knew. Or that I have lied to him for the last three years.
"Hayden heiress, yes" I state. The shock is present on his face.
"Why didn't you tell me" he states caressing my cheek. All he wants is the truth and to understand why we can't be together.
"Why don't we go upstairs and I'll explain. It's not a conversation I want to have on the street" I state, moving slightly to grabbing my purse from the car and hitting the alarm. He hits his and follows me into the apartment building. There isn't a word said the entire time until I open the door and hear Paris yelling "Gilmore, Dugray called 5 times since I got here and Francine twice, I'm not your damn secretary."
"Thanks Paris I'll make sure there's an extra bonus in your pay this week" I yell joking with her and close the door behind Logan. I walk to the kitchen and grab the last bottle of champagne and head to my room. It's the only place with seating. The champagne is to calm my nerves. I throw my purse on a box and unstrapped my sandals before sitting on the bed.
"Where do you want me to start?" I question Logan who looks utterly confused. I pull the wine topper off and take a long drink. It's actually new for him. I never saw him look like that. I like having the upper hand for once. Oh, the power I could have!
"The beginning" he states taking off his jacket, placing it over my purse and coming to sit across from me on the bed. Distance is good right now. I take a long sip of the champagne and I hand him the bottle; he does the same. It's like we both need it.
"What about the cliff notes version" I state looking at my watch. I have only two hours before I have to leave to get to Princeton. Summoned to the graduation as the Hayden representative and it has already begun. My life as I knew it is officially over.
"Sure" he smiles at me, the smile that melts my heart.
Over the next half hour, I explained what happened last night after he left. How I was cornered by everyone and told that I had no choice but to marry Tristan to save all the families and that I hate them for it. Then I explained what I found out early that it was my mother who actually called them and pushed for the union. I still don't understand why but I will. "So that's about it, at least for now" I states and he's smirking at me.
"What" I say curiously as he moves closer.
"I knew Lorelai didn't like me, but to sabotage her own daughter like this, it's just makes her everything she hates" he says and I smile.
"I know" I say and he continues to move closer.
"So the only thing stopping you from marrying me is this contract with Tristan" he says caressing my face.
"Do you really think I would have spent the last three years falling in love with you if I didn't see a future for us" I say and he's right next to me.
"I know you better than that, that's why it still unbelievable that you said no earlier" he says tucking some hair behind my ear.
"I never said no, I said I can't. Saying no would have been a choice that I made alone and saying can't was restricting the ability to make the choice" I say and he cups my face.
"Do you love him" he questions and I shake my head no. I haven't loved Tristan since I was 18. I'm in love with Logan. "Good" he says capturing my lips with his and it's the only thing I've wanted. "I'm not going to let you go that easily Ace" he says breaking the kiss. I nod knowing that he will fight for us. I'm only afraid that it will be a waste.
"Logan, if I don't do this, everyone loses everything. Mom included and she worked so hard for the inn. I can't let that happen no matter what she did" I say and he looks at me.
"Then we figure out how to get you get you out of this without that happening. If that's what you want" he says and I smile.
"Thank you" I say kissing him lightly. That is what I want. I want to be with him.
"For what" he says as I lay back and he hovers over me.
"For letting me explain, for being the man that you are and understanding. For wanting to help when it might be a complete waste of time" I say touching his face. Those are only a few reasons why I love him.
"I can make you forget about everything, be us and not let this destroy us" he states kissing me passionate and I know what he wants.
"But it will" I say crying a little.
"You're not married yet Ace, which means I still have you and if I need to kidnap you to a deserted island to keep you then that is what I'll do" he says before attaching my neck with his mouth.
GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
"I have to leave" I say snuggling into his side after having mind blowing makeup sex with Logan. We never had a problem with that. I glance at my watch and see that I really have to leave to make it there on time. Lying besides him makes everything disappear, like it's just us and the rest of the world doesn't exist.
"Blow it off" he says kissing the top of my head.
"I can't" I say sitting up to look at him.
"Yes you can, you can do anything Rory. Stand up to them and make them see that you don't want this. Being the obedient girl they want, will only be giving in to their way" he says and I smile. He's so used to disobeying them that to him it's nothing.
"I like this conniving mind of yours" I say straddling him. Teasing him again, I wish it could be as easy as he says.
"I loved that dress" he says flipping us over and I know he still wants control.
"If you loved that, wait until you see the old uniform" I giggle as he kisses across my shoulder.
"You've been holding out on me Ace" he smirks.
So what did you think? Any suggestions i will take!!
"Maybe a little" I smirk before he attacks me again for round two.
