Alive
Logan knocked on the bathroom door and slowly opened it, while stepping inside. He watched for a moment, Rosemary was sitting by Rory holding her hair back with one hand and washing her face with a damp washcloth with her other hand as Rory was throwing up.
Rosemary looked up when she noticed his presence in the room "Could you go get a bottle of water?"
He nodded and silently made his exit from the bathroom and headed in the direction of the kitchen. Once in the kitchen he grabbed three bottles of water from the refrigerator and set them on the counter. He quickly searched the cupboards for something that may help settle her stomach when she stopped throwing up. He was on his fourth cupboard when he found some salted crackers 'that should work' he thought. He grabbed the box, and took the bottles off the counter while heading back to the bathroom.
He returned to the bathroom and sat on the floor, leaning against the wall. He noticed Rory was no longer throwing up but she had her head resting on the toilet. He opened a bottle of water and handed it to Rosemary, who proceeded at trying to get Rory to drink something. He opened another one and placed it by Rosemary, who raised an eyebrow at him.
"It's for you," he stated
Rosemary nodded "Thanks" she paused and turned her attention back to Rory "You know you shouldn't be in here. She's sick, and she wouldn't want you to see her like this"
He shrugged and opened his own bottle of water "I feel like it's my fault, the least I can do is help take care of her"
Rosemary nodded, there was no point in trying to get him to leave, he wanted to be there for Rory, and she was not going to change his mind. "So what exactly happened between you two anyway?"
"We kissed" he said simply while opening the box of crackers and taking out a handful handing them to Rosemary in attempt to get Rory to eat something.
"That's it? So you guys kissed and nothing else?" Rosemary asked quickly pulling Rory's hair back as she began to throw up again.
"Yeah" he said moving forward and slowly rubbing her back. He hated seeing her like this, and the fact that she was like this because of him, made him feel worse. He did not think bringing Carmen here, after their kiss would hurt her and cause her to drink like that.
"Why did you bring Carmen here?" Rosemary asked wiping the washcloth over Rory's face
He sighed "The same reason I bring any other girl home with me"
"Did you even consider Rory's feelings at all?" she asked, he could tell she was somewhat annoyed.
"Look can we stop talking about this, this is something that Rory, and I need to talk about before I answer your questions or anybody else's questions," he said rubbing his hand through his hair
Rosemary nodded "Ok"
3 hours later, Logan and Rosemary were still sitting on the bathroom floor with Rory. She had stopped throwing up a little over an hour ago but they decided to stay their just in case she got sick again. Rory was now stretched out on the bathroom floor with Logan and Rosemary on either side of her.
"I think we should take her upstairs now," Rosemary suggested
Logan nodded "I'll take her up" he looked at the empty water bottles on that were now on the sink "Could you grab some water?"
"Sure, do you want to me to get some more crackers?" Rosemary asked
Logan looked at the box sitting beside him "No, she barely ate anything so that box will be good, bring it up with the water"
Rosemary nodded and made her way out the door. Logan looked down at Rory, she looked miserable, but well most people did after 2 hours of throwing up. He took a new washcloth out of one of cabinets, quickly running some cold water on it, before carefully rubbing it over her face, trying not to wake her.
He tossed the washcloth of the sink and gently scooped her up into his arms making his way out of the bathroom. When he walked in the living area, he saw everyone was sleeping on the couches and floor except Colin and Brooklyn. He laughed a little at the sight but continued upstairs.
Logan opened the door to Rory's room and placed her on the bed. He studied her for a few moments, until Rosemary came in with the water and crackers.
Logan turned to her "I'm going to take a quick shower, can you stay with her until I get back?"
"Sure" Rosemary agreed walking towards the chair by the window and dropping down in it.
15 minutes later Logan walked back into Rory's room to find Rosemary flipping through what he assumed was Rory's book. "Has she moved?"
"I don't think so," Rosemary responded getting out of the chair and moving to stand beside Logan. "She drank a lot tonight"
"I know should we change her into her pajamas?" He asked massaging his temples
Rosemary smiled and cocked her head to the side "We?"
He smiled back and rolled his eyes "You"
"Yeah. It would be good to get her out of those clothes anyway," Rosemary said going towards Rory's suitcase in the corner and grabbing her navy and yellow star pajama pants and matching tank top.
"She's going to have one hell of a hangover tomorrow," Logan said
"That she is" Rosemary said returning to the bed "Turn around"
"What?" Logan asked confused
Rosemary laughed "Turn around; I need to take off her pants and shirt. You my friend are not allowed to watch"
Logan nodded and did what he was told as they stood in silence until Rosemary spoke again a few moments later as she began to make her way to the door. "My job is done, I'm heading to bed"
"Night" Logan said as he turned around
"She's going to be fine, she's sleeping. Go back to your room Logan" Rosemary said sensing the fact that he did not want to leave her
"No, I'm going to spend the night with her. I want to be here if she wakes up or needs someone," Logan said looking down at the sleeping girl.
"Well goodnight then" Rosemary said shutting the door, leaving Logan alone with Rory.
When he heard the door shut he sat on the end of the bed, it was a huge. He did not think Rory would mind if he spent the night on it with her. He would more then likely be up before her anyway. He stood up and moved his way around the side of the bed to put Rory under the covers. When she was tucked in, he made sure the blinds in the window were shut tightly; she would not appreciate any sunlight in the morning He shut out the lights and lead on top of the bed. He looked over at Rory and gave her a light kiss on her forehead, before turning over and going to sleep him.
The next morning Logan was leaned against the headboard reading the book that he had saw Rosemary flipping through the night before. It was 10:30 when Rory started to stir. He closed the book and put it on the nightstand beside him waiting for her to make some noise indicating she was awake.
A few moments later, she mumbled, "Must never drink again"
He picked the bottle of water and two aspirins off of the nightstand "Take these, it will help"
She jumped at the sound of his voice and groaned obviously not realizing someone was sitting by her on the bed.
He laughed "First rule of terrible hangovers Ace, No sudden movements"
She slowly rolled over and sat up taking the water and pills from his hands. Once she had swallowed the pills, she noticed she was in different clothes and a look of worry came over her face. "Did you... did you um change my clothes?" she asked not looking him in the eye. He knew the events of the previous night were coming back to her.
"Rosemary" he said with a smile, even if he wanted to be the one to do it.
She slowly nodded her head "Need coffee" she mumbled
"Coffee will dehydrate you, drink the water first" Logan said quietly, he knew all to well that if he talked as he normally did it would not be good for her hangover.
He watched her shut her eyes and take a mouth full of water "I feel like I'm dying, must drink coffee"
"Finish off your water. Go take a shower, it will make you feel better and while you're doing that I'll go downstairs, get you some coffee"
She did not say anything but slowly got out of bed, making her way to her suitcase before going into the bathroom and shutting the door. When she shut the door, he got off the bed and went downstairs in search of some coffee.
When he arrived in the kitchen, all eyes were on him. He stood their in silence looking at his friends who were all slumped over at the kitchen table nursing hangovers. He shook his head and went about making Rory some coffee.
Rosemary broke the silence "How is she?"
"She'll be fine, she has one hell of a hangover though," He said
"Where is she now?" Juliet asked
"Shower, I'm making her coffee and then I'm going to talk to her," he said giving them a look that said he did not want to be interrupted
Finn broke out into a grin "And you want to be alone right?"
Logan glared at him and shook his head "What are you doing up this early anyway?"
"Colin made me come with him to take the girls you two picked up back to into the city," Finn said sending a disapproving glare at Colin
"Which reminds me, how was Carmen last night?" Colin said with a smirk
Logan grinned "No complaints here"
"You're a jackass," Rosemary said with disgust
"Just because he enjoyed sex with someone that wasn't Rory doesn't make him a jackass," Robert stated not raising his head from the table
"He kissed Rory; the girl he has feelings for but won't admit it because he's an idiot. Then less then 24 hours later he was upstairs having sex with someone who was not Rory. If that's not jackass behavior I don't know what is," Rosemary said looking at Logan
Logan finished making the coffee and turned around again to face his friends "You know what, this is between me and Rory. Id appreciates it if you all would back off until we have dealt with it ourselves" he said calmly and picked Rory's coffee off the counter making his way upstairs.
When Logan got up to Rory's room, she was coming out of the bathroom. He took in her appearance her hair was wet and in a messy ponytail. She was wearing a pair of tight jeans, that he definitely approved him and a t-shirt. She still looked like she had the worlds worse hangover but that was expected
"Feeling better?" he asked
"A little, but I still feel like I got ran over by several very heavy trucks" she paused and smiled a little when she was the mug that he was holding out to her, the mug she quickly accepted "Coffee?"
"Yes, I know better then to give you anything else to drink" he said taking a seat on the bed and motioning for her to sit as well, which she did. After she quickly gulped down the coffee, he spoke "We need to talk"
