An: I was going to add this to the last chapter to make it longer, but realized it needed it's own chapter. So enjoy!!

CH 6

We are all sitting at the pub hours later and I just finished explaining everything to the gang. They are speechless. Logan sitting next to me, he hasn't let go of my hand since we left the apartment after I told him everything and I mean everything.

Flashback

"Let's talk now" I say walking out to the living room after changing into short miniskirt and blue halter after we finished round three in the shower. The man is like energizer bunny. He keeps going and going!

"Damn Ace, we're not going to make it to the pub if you're planning to wear that" he smirks coming out of the bathroom.

"Deal with it Huntzberger" I smile at him. "So you wanted to know the truth" I say pouring us two glasses of wine and hoping on the counter.

"Please, so I know what we're up against. I don't want him to have any leverage against us" he says taking a sip of the glass.

"Tristan and I dated in Chilton. He was the first for many things Logan. I was or so I thought at the time that I was in love with him. Mom loves him which explains why she hates you. We did everything together, we spent the summer between junior and senior year in Europe with Madeline Lynn, Louise Grant, Kyle McCoy and Mike Bowman" I say breathing to take some wine.

"Those are some heavy hitters Ace" he laughs almost shocked. They are on the list of most influential families in Hartford. Friends that he never knew I had.

"We were the king and queen of Chilton Logan. Everyone wanted us and wanted to be us. All of society knew that we were the 'it' couple. But then right after my 18th birthday, I found out I was pregnant" I say looking down before looking up at the shocked face on Logan.

"But there's no little Gilmore running around" he says and I nod. This is going to be hard to tell him. I haven't even said this out load in almost 4 years.

"Everything was great, we wanted the baby more than anything or so I thought. I was so naïve, so blinded about what was going on around me. We signed bidding contracts that stated that we would get married after the baby was born, Go to Princeton and do everything right. They were safeguarding against repeating history like with Mom" I say and he nod. I pour more wine before continuing. "Tristan proposed on Valentine's day, it was romantic and just us. I was so intoxicated and blinded by my own love and stupidity of the boy that I agreed. Only to have it blow up in my face" I state.

"Is that way you wanted to think things over last night" he questions and I nod.

"I needed to make sure that I was doing the right thing. I didn't want to be blinded and impulsive again because last time it took me years to get over it. I had to change everything about me to cover up the past. I didn't want to go through that again" I say and he nods understanding.

"But what about the baby you should have been what 4-5 months when he proposed?" he says and I close my eyes trying not to cry.

"About a month later, I was waiting for him so we could leave early for a doctor's appointment when I found him with Summer Roberts in the hall leaving the janitor's closet" I state and he smirks. The pain is almost as bad as actually being there again.

"That girl is the biggest whore in Hartford, she's actually in rehab now" he laughs and I look at him.

"That's also the reason why when I found out about the bridesmaids, I refused to just forget about it. It was opening old wounds. I know you weren't Tristan but it felt like history was repeating itself. The difference was that I truly love you and that alone made me forgive up" I state and he touches my arm.

"I realize that now, but you know that I love you even back then. This was all still new to me, but I knew I wanted only you. It scared the hell out of me. I was so stupid going to Costa Rica and getting hurt. I wasn't thinking. I was only afraid of losing you again" he says and I nod. I knew changing another playboy into a boyfriend was going to hurt me, but there was something different about Logan.

"We started fighting in the hall and I storm away after chucking the ring at him and he ran after me. He stopped me on top of the main steps at Chilton and I continued to yell at him, but I ripped my arm out of his grasp and tripped on the first step. I ended up falling completely down the stairs and blacking out as I hit the floor on the bottom" I say and tears are falling. Logan just wraps his arms around me, standing between my legs. I just continue to cry into his chest and he rubs my back.

"Rory" he says and I look up. "You lost the baby, didn't you?" he asks softly and I nod crying almost as hard as that day. "I'm sorry" he says hugging me tightly. I knew I would cry.

Finally composing myself, I continued "I blamed Tristan for it and shut him out. I couldn't look at him without seeing that accident over and over again. When I returned to Chilton after spring break, we kept our distance. Only dealing with one another in class if we needed to, it was when I found out him and Summer was seeing one another since Christmas. I felt so betrayed. Here was the guy I thought changed, a guy that I thought I loved but he was lying to me the whole time. When we first broke up, he came here and you guys treated him like the old Tristan was back. He slept with girls here including Juliet. Yes, I know. She wasn't quiet about it when we had our girl nights. I just never told them that I was girlfriend he broke up with. But that didn't end it. I also found out that right before my 18th birthday, he was having a fling with Cassie Waldorf in NY" I state anger taking over the crying.

"Wow, no wonder you hated me so much" he states smirking as he wipes my tears away.

"No, I hated myself for letting it happened" I state "the avoidance continued until I was name valedictorian. He planned this breakfast in the teacher's lounge and it finally broke down the avoidance. We started to be friends again or so I thought. Tristan had other plans that I didn't know about. Then the weekend before graduation we were at Maddie's house for the last party of the years and we let the emotions, desires and alcohol take us over. We ended up sleeping together again. It was then I felt like one of the many instead of the only one. He thought it was us getting back together, but I couldn't. I couldn't trust him anymore. I couldn't be with a man that didn't trust to be loyal. It was way I was so hard on you. I'm sorry for that by the way" I say finishing the glass sitting next to me.

"Okay, enough of this. We need cheering up and to get drunk, come on" he says pulling me off the counter.

"Aren't you going to say anything" I state confused at the change in him.

"You're being honest with me and yourself I think finally after all this time. I understand so much now about our relationship and know that we have a hell of fight in front of us. So I need reinforcements and they are at the pub" he smirks. "Shoes now Ace" he states tapping my butt.

"I'm going, I'm going" I laugh heading into my room.

"And we're taking your car" he yells and I laugh. I figured as much.

End of Flashback

"I'm sorry" Juliet says and I smile at her.

"Why you didn't know" I laugh finishing off my drink.

"So how's the car mate" Finn say slapping Logan's shoulder, changing the subject off the cheater.

"Not as incredible as this one driving it. I'm scared to be on the same road as her now" he laughs.

"Hey I wasn't that bad" I say hitting his leg. He just leans over and kisses me lightly.

"Well they didn't call her Baby Girl Hayden for nothing. She still holds the record for the street racing throughout the Northeast" Colin says "I'm sorry for being a jerk when we first met" he adds.

"The first time or the second time when you didn't recognize her because you're normally an ass" Steph giggle as Logan kisses my neck.

"So what now" Steph says looking at us.

"We figure out how the hell to get her out of this, so that maybe we can figure us out" Logan says.

"There's no way" Colin says.

"Mate, there as to be a way" Finn says as the shot tray arrives.

"I have seen the papers, Strobe Hayden did them himself. They are loophole free" Colin answers and I shake my head.

"That's not entirely true McCrea" I say and they all look at me.

"Rory, I deal with agreements like this all the time, I can spot loophole in ever contract" he states superior.

"Okay sweater vest, but hear me out" I state and everyone laughs. He looks at me and I know I should continue.

"They state that we agree to get married after the baby was born and before it turned 4 which would be in July if I didn't lose it. Therefore, there is no baby and the agreement is null in void" I state and everyone stares at me. Am I the only one that saw that?

"Sure you don't want to be a lawyer Ace" Logan questions almost proud.

"No thank you" I sarcastically.

"That might actually work Gilmore" Colin says scratching his chin.

"What about the families and the legal mergers of companies? That will hurt everyone if you don't marry TJ. What are the ramifications of that?" Rosemary says.

"Did all three of you have persona implants today love" Finn questions looking around the table.

"Whatever it was, I like it" Logan says playing with my hair. I smile thinking back to the time he did that at the Chinese place when we first started all this. So many things have changed.

"Where in the hell were you and why the hell are you here with them when you're supposed to be home packing" we hear someone yell and I look up to see a fuming Tristan storming into the pub. Game on Dugray, is all I'm thinking.

"Was I supposed to be someplace else?" I question the group. Knowing I purposely didn't go.

"Not that we know of love" Finn smirks. They all hate this and will help no matter what.

"Graduation, Princeton does that ring a bell" he says angry. I shake my head.

"No not really. Can't say that it does, care for a drink Dugray" I state downing my shot. I had to so I wouldn't burst out laughing at his irritated face.

"You have no idea the hell I was in when you didn't show up" he demands pulling me roughly out of the booth by my upper arm. He's quite strong and it hurt.

"It's not like you never were before TJ, now unhand me" I state pulling my arm out of his grasp, but it doesn't work. He just holds on tighter.

"Oh, I don't think so. We're leaving and you can explain that you were in bed with Huntz here instead of doing what you were told to do. Now let's go" he states holding my upper arm tighter and pulling me towards the exit.

"Let her go Dugray" Logan say standing up and coming after us.

"This is really funny, you protecting her after she turned you down. Always have to be the knight in shining armor, don't you?" he laughs.

"Damn it Tristan let go you're hurting me" I demand still trying to pull my arm out of his grasp. He's really hurting me. I know there's going to be a bruise.

"And she only did that because she had no other choice. We would be celebrating our engagement if it wasn't for you" Logan states pissed off and breaking Tristan's grasp and my arm is release. Logan steps between us to fight with Tristan. I look at my arm, it's already all red.

"Don't ever touch her like that again" Logan states. I never saw him this furious. He's hot like this. I like it!

"This is almost comical, my friends turning against me for her, to protect her. Does it make you feel superior for doing it again Mare" he states almost sneering at me over Logan's shoulder.

"If you lost the gang that's your fault, not mine, maybe if you weren't such an ass maybe you wouldn't have" I smirk as Finn comes over and moves me back.

"Fine, you know what? Stay here then but as of tomorrow they can't save you. You will be mine and then we'll have to teach you to behave" he smirks leaving. We all watch him leave before everyone looks at me. I'm the only one that knows what he's talking about. Derek hits Rachel when she steps out of line and now I'm scared. Maybe fighting the Dugrays isn't worth it?

"Are you okay" Logan says looking at my arm and I look away from the door to him.

"No, but I thinking you can kiss it and make it feel better" I smirk and laughs.

"Let's get out of here" he says pulling me towards him and kissing me. We say our goodbyes and head back to Finn's where he's staying.

So review and let me know what you think!
