I know-- I'm sorry, I am not meaning to drag it out so long. I promise. This is almost done with the 'knowing whats gonna happen' part.
"Hold on, Ace. I have to go to the restroom." Logan said to Rory, excusing himself.
"Logan!"
"Ace!" He mimicked.
"No, you're supposed to excuse your self to 'wash your hands'." Rory informed him, teasing him a little.
"Well then," Hw grinned "Excuse me, I must wash my hands." He got up, placing a light kiss on her cheek and left for inside.
What a lovely meal she though. She was so full, but she defiantly put it away. She thought to her self that she wouldn't say no to her favorite desert, if Logan offered it. JELLO. She was defiantly happy. Very, very happy.
--------------------------------------------------------
Logan went inside to 'find the restroom.' Truthfully, he wanted to surprise Ace, the time was now. He went in to find his server.
"Hi." Logan took a breath as he found him.
"Hello, sir, I am sorry. Is there something wrong?" The waited seemed concerned.
"No, no. Everything is great. Thank you. I was just wondering if you could do me a huge favor?" Logan held a 20 in front of the servers face. He took the money, then plastered on a smile.
"What can I do." He offered.
He and Logan disappeared into the kitchen for a while, then Logan emerged and ran back to be with Rory.
-----------------------------------------------------
"Everything alright?" She asked, and that's when he'd noticed he had been gone for nearly ten mins.
"Uh.. Yea, there was a line. Hope I didn't leave you too lonely, Ace." Logan joked.
"Oh, no! with all these people out here to talk to? Of course, I barley even noticed you were gone." She teased him. And with every one of her words, their faces grew closer together, until she finished her sentence-- His lips found their familiar perch on hers. Their kiss was rich with passion as they explored the other, and then they heard a slight sound.
"Ah-hem." the waiter made a sound to signify his presence.
They pulled away from each other, Rory's face turning red and giggling while Logan only smiled.
"Can I get you two any desert? We have red jello as a special this evening." The waited offered, looking at Logan with a wink.
"Hey, Ace. Jello!"
"Jello!" She squeaked and looked at Logan with hopeful eyes.
"We'll take all the jello you got." He instructed the waiter.
"As you like." The waiter smiled at Logan and Rory as he walked away from the pair.
When their Jello arrived Rory stared in awe as they placed a crystal punch bowl full of red jello in front of her.
"Well, Ace?"
"Oh. My. God." She exclaimed.
"Ace, Maybe you should eat it?" Logan questioned asking as if she were a 3 year old in a candy shop.
The server took a crystal ladle, scooped up a certain spot and put it in her dish, then served Logan. As he was walking away he said in a very knowing manor "Enjoy!"
Rory dipped her spoon into her brightly colored Jello and was dismayed to find something hard that blocked the path from spoon to jello to mouth. She dug her spoon down deeper to find the cause. And that's when she saw it. Her eyes met the spark of a white gold band with a huge diamond in the middle. Around it were blue and green sapphires. It was beautiful. She pulled the ring out of her jello and turned to Logan. He had already shifted, and was on one knee on the ground.
"Logan?" She questioned. Tears glazed her eyes.
"Ace, Rory. Gilmore. Haden." He looked directly into her eyes, taking the ring out of her hand and holding it up in his.
"Every time I see your face, or hear your voice, hear your name, or read anything that has ever been written by or about you… My heart skips, sings. I've loved you since the day I laid my eyes on you. I will never stop loving you, no matter what. So, My Ace, please, please, because Mrs. Logan Huntzberger? Rory, Will you marry me?"
He looked at Rory who was not holding back to tears anymore, she nodded her head and held out her hand.
"Yes" Was all she could say. The rest of her vocabulary had gone out the window.
Logan got up, and held the most amazed expression on his face. He let Rory fall into his embrace. They were going to get married. Spend forever together. Always and forever.
