Three months later Rory stood in a room in some fancy resort, getting help with her wedding dress. She couldn't believe that this day was already here, nor could she believe how much she was already showing. 'I'm going to look fat in my wedding pictures.' she thought glumly. But then she remembered that she wasn't just fat, she was having a baby, and not just any baby, it was Logan's baby.
Lorelai was fussing around her, along with Lane and Honor.
"You look just gorgeous Rory." said Honor. "I can't believe you got my brother to settle down."
"Well he'd better." said Lorelai darkly.
Rory laughed. "I don't think you have to worry about that."
"I can't believe you are getting married today." said Lane. "And you are pregnant. You are just doing everything at once."
"Yeah it's scary." admitted Rory. "But I've already got a job and a house and everything."
"And can you believe, mom's actually happy about you joining the family." said Honor.
"What does Mitchum think?" Rory dared to ask.
Honor made a face. "Who cares?" she said. "I mean he isn't unhappy about it, but you know his and Logan's relationship. It'll never be good."
Rory nodded. "I'm kinda glad he isn't coming to the wedding." she admitted.
"Logan wouldn't let him if he tried." said Honor.
"It's probably better that way."
"Much better." Honor agreed and fussed with Rory's dress.
"Well kid are you ready to go out there?" Lorelai asked, surveying her offspring proudly.
Rory glanced one more time at herself in the mirror. Of course the dress was way too frilly (her grandmother had picked it out) and her hair was tight and making her scalp ache and the shoes were killing her feet. But she did look pretty. She didn't bother much with the plans for the wedding. After all, it was way more important to the family than it was to her and Logan. They were committed to each other, no matter what a piece of paper said.
"Well I'm ready." Rory finally said.
"That's good. You were about to miss your wedding." Lorelai commented. "I think the music is playing."
Rory rushed out of the room so that she wouldn't miss getting married.
Luke was there to walk her down the aisle to Logan. Christopher had always been an on again, off again father and at this point he was off again, off to Europe the last they heard. But Rory didn't let it ruin her wedding. Luke had always been more of a father to her than Chris had ever been.
And then she spotted Logan, waiting at the alter. He smiled slightly when he saw her, and as Luke handed her off he leaned over and whispered in your ear "You look beautiful."
She smiled a little and stood in front of the alter, ready to take the vows that would make them husband and wife.
The wedding reception was a huge affair, and a mix of old and young, the rich friends of the Gilmores and the people from Stars Hollow. The whole thing was definitely going to be talked about for years to come.
Rory and Logan sat at the place of honor at the big table, surrounded by family and friends. They had barely had time to speak to each other all day, which was somewhat ironic being that this was the day they were supposed to become joined forever. There were so many people to greet though and dances, and hugs and handshakes all around.
When he could Logan looked over at her to see how happy his new wife was. She looked radiant in the frilly dress, although he had stifled a laugh when he had first seen her because it really wasn't her style. And it had to be slightly adjusted to accommodate their growing child.
He was interruped from these thoughts by Shira and Honor, coming up and giving him a big hug.
"Logan I can't believe you are married!" squealed Honor. "I was telling Rory earlier I can't believe you are actually settled down."
"I can't believe it either." Logan said thoughtfully. "I never though I'd be so lucky."
"You are lucky." said Honor. "She actually wants to put up with you forever."
"I hope it stays that way."
"Well Logan, look at you in the tux. You look so handsome." Shira gushed. She was halfway to being completely drunk but at least right now she was able to hold a conversation. "Let's tell him about the gift." she said, slightly louder than she meant to Honor.
"Shouldn't we wait for Rory?" suggested Honor. "She is my new sister and your new daughter, after all."
"Right..." said Shira, looking around. Finally she spotted Rory and motioned for her to come over.
"Rory we were just about to tell Logan about our wedding present to you two."
"What?" asked Rory.
"Well," continued Honor. "You know that pub you work at?" she asked Logan.
He nodded.
"We bought it for you!" she exclaimed, giving a little hop of excitement.
"What?!" Logan and Rory said together.
"Yeah well you seemed to like working there, and it's very popular with the students in the area, so it should be a good investment." said Honor.
Shira nodded. "We wanted you to be your own boss. Especially with the baby coming." she said, drunkenly poking at Rory's stomach.
Logan gave Rory an apologetic look. Then he gave Shira and Honor a big hug. "That is way too much, thank you!" he said. "I didn't even know the place was for sale."
"Everything is for sale at the right price." Honor reminded him. Then she pressed the keys into his hand. "The deed is somewhere in that pile of gifts." she said, vaguely gesturing towards the pile.
"I can't believe this!" said Logan.
"Now we both own our jobs." agreed Rory.
"That will definitely make time for the baby. Hell we could have another if we wanted." said Logan.
Rory gave him a slight push. "Lets just worry about getting this one out first." she said laughing.
"The first one is harder but after that its much easier." said Shira. "After the first one they kind of slide on out."
Rory and Logan looked at each other, disgusted. "Thanks mom, I appreciate the info." said Logan. He then steered her to a seat so she could get all the way drunk without falling over.
When he and Rory finally got a moment to themselves he gave her a passionate kiss. "I can't believe all of this. I own the bar! I can go in when I want, and everything. And it is a very popular bar."
"I know. That was a really nice gift." said Rory.
"Honor must have picked it out. I doubt my mom even really knew what was going on in my life."
"I'm still glad you two are talking again." said Rory. "It's sad not to talk to your mom. Mitchum we can do without though."
"I couldn't agree more Ace. Now lets get back to the party."
He grabbed her hand and they rejoined the crowded room.
