About a week later Rory and Logan were back in their cozy Hartford apartment. Logan was making a pancake breakfast. Rory was watching Logan make a pancake breakfast.

"We need to talk." Rory said suddenly.

"What about?" Logan asked. He set the pancakes on the table and the two sat down to eat.

"I'm bored."

"You're bored." He repeated slowly.

"I don't have a job yet. Sure, the wedding planning is taking up a good amount of time but on most weekdays I have nothing to do! Don't get me wrong, I love having free time. I've been shopping, I've visited people, but face it Logan; I need to find something to occupy myself with."

"Learn to knit."

She stopped eating and stared at him. "You're not serious."

He laughed. "Of course I'm not serious, Ace. I've kind of been feeling the same way lately."

"I miss writing."

"I know you do."

"I miss school. I miss waking up every morning and feeling like I have a goal, something to accomplish and do. And I miss at the end of everyday feeling proud of myself for doing something and moving forward with my life. Lately I just feel lazy."

"What do you want to do?"

"I don't know." She sighed. "What about you? You said you wanted to do something. What?"

"I don't know either."

"Great. So we both know we want to do something but we don't know what."

She stood up and Logan gently pulled her into his lap. "How about we both think it over and get back to it? When you know what you want just tell me and I promise I will be behind you one hundred percent."

Rory smiled. "Okay, me too."

"Now isn't your mom picking you up in a few minutes to go dress shopping?"

Rory gasped. "Oh my god, I'm not even dressed yet!" she jumped up and ran into the bedroom. "What am I supposed to wear?" she said frustratingly digging through her closet.

"Black medium length skirt, black knee high boots, and white scoop neck tank top." Logan said walking into the room behind her and sitting on the end of the bed.

"You know you really know too much about clothes to not be gay."

"I grew up with a sister who held me hostage with her friends and put doll clothes on me. It's not something I'm proud of."

"Hello? Rory? Mommy's here! Are you and Logan naked?" Lorelai called from the living room.

"Dirty! And no, we're both fully clothed. We're back in the bedroom." Rory yelled back.

Lorelai walked into the bedroom. "Oh so you're already done."

"Double dirty!"

"I call 'em like I see 'em."

Rory looked over at Logan, who was now turning multiple shades of red. "I'm taking her now." She said leaning over and pecking his cheek. She followed Lorelai towards the door.

"Ace, wait a sec. I forgot to tell you something." Logan called.

"Be right back." She told her mom. "Go on down to the car, I'll be right there."

"Kay."

"What's up?" she asked returning to the bedroom.

Logan quickly grabbed her and pulled her into a deep kiss. "I love you."

Rory smiled. "I love you, too."

"And you forgot this." He said handing her her purse

"Thank you."

"Now go get your dress."

"Thank you!"

"You know I don't actually understand why they call it Starbucks." Lorelai said examining her cup a few hours later as the two strolled down a street filled with shops.

"Because the big stars have the bucks to drink it everyday." Rory said confidently.

"Oh. That makes sense. How did you know that?"

"I made it up."

"Even better. You know I bet some people can afford to drink these everyday."

"Like who?"

"Bill Gates. He's like the richest man in the world."

"Who couldn't you have been like Bill Gates?"

"Because God gave me extra chromosomes. And I-" Lorelai turned around when she realized that Rory had stopped a few paces back. "What's wrong, babe?"

Rory stared blankly across the street.

Lorelai stood next to her and looked. "Wanna go in?"

Rory shook her head and continued to stare at the book shop.

"What's wrong?"

"Look at all the kids." She said. The book shop was overflowing with teens with stacks of books in their arms. A big sign read, "SALE! ALL COLLEGE PREP BOOKS 10 OFF!!!"

"You wanna go in and pretend we're about to start college?" Lorelai suggested.

Rory's eyes suddenly lit up. "That's it." She said suddenly turning to Lorelai. "Mom, I need you to take me back to the apartment."

"What? Why? What's going on?"

"I need to talk to Logan."

"Can't you just call him?"

"I have to tell him in person. Can we go, please? I promise we can go dress shopping tomorrow. I just have so much to do!" she started jumping up and down excitedly.

"Um, sure babe. Are you gonna tell me what this is about?"

"Tomorrow, I promise. Right now I just really need to talk to Logan." She climbed into the jeep and buckled her seatbelt.

"Okay, as long as you can promise me one thing." Lorelai said starting to drive.

"What?"

"Are you pregnant?"

"What? Oh my god mom, no!"

"Are you sure? Because you should really be sure. Take a test or something."

"Mom, I promise you I am 100 not pregnant."

"Really?"

"Yes!"

Lorelai let out a breath she didn't know she was holding. "Okay." she stopped in front of Rory and Logan's apartment complex. "Call me tomorrow?"

"I promise." Rory leaned over and kissed her mother, then hopped out of the car. "Bye!" she called running into the building. Lorelai watched as she ran to the elevator and bobbed up and down waiting for it, a giant grin on her face. All of a sudden, her cell rang.

"Hello?"

"Hey sweetie, how's the dress shopping going?" a cheery voice answered.

She pulled onto the street. "Actually, Sookie, it's not. I'm headed back towards Stars Hollow."

"Oh my god, you and Rory didn't have a fight did you? Because the last time that happened everything was ruined!"

"No Sookie, we didn't get into a fight."

"Is she sick?"

"No, she's not sick."

"Well then why aren't you dress shopping? Oh my god, is the wedding off? Oh my god the wedding's off! Oh, is she okay? You should be there with her!"

"Sookie calm down. The wedding is still on. We were shopping and all of a sudden she stopped at a book store and then said she needed to get back to the apartment."

"Why?"

"I don't know. She said she needed to talk to Logan."

"Are you okay?"

Lorelai sighed. "Yeah, I'm- I'm fine. I guess I'm just having a hard time realizing that I'm not the one she's going to come to for every little thing anymore."

"Oh honey, I'm sorry."

"Hey, no! It's okay. I'm fine. It's just, she's growing up, you know? It's hard."

"I know, sweetie. But hey, you still have my kids! You can come over and be their second mom anytime you want."

"Thanks Sookie."

"You sure you're okay?"

"Yeah. I'm just gonna head home. Maybe go over and see Luke."

"Okay. Call me if you need anything."

"I will."

"Logan!" Rory cried rushing into the apartment's study.

He jumped. "Ace, you scared me. What are you doing back so early? Are you okay? Where's your mom?"

Rory waved away his questions. "I'm fine, my moms fine. She's heading back home. I had to talk to you." She grabbed his arm and pulled him into the living room and onto the couch. She turned and faced him, her eyes wide. "Logan, I know what I want to do. I know what I want to do with my life so I won't just sit here and be bored all day."

"Okay…." he said nodding slowly.

"See, my mom and I were out dress shopping and talking about Starbucks when all of a sudden I see this book store across the street. So I stop and finally my mom comes back and starts talking to me but I can barely even hear her because so much is going through my brain."

"Not that that's different from any other day, but continue."

"So I was standing there watching all of these kids buy books for college because they were having a sale and I couldn't help wishing that was me. And then it hit me!"

"What hit you?"

"It! College!"

"I hate to break it to you Ace, but you've already went to college."

"Not for my Masters Degree, I haven't. I have my Bachelors. It's like, I don't want to go back just because I miss college, that'd be stupid. But I want to go back because I'm not really ready for a full time job yet and I know that with a Masters Degree I'll be able to get an even better job when the time comes and it'll give me even more to go on than I already have! And I realize it'll take two years but I really feel like this is what I'm supposed to do with my life right now." She looked at him. "What do you think?"

Logan folded his hands and set them in his lap. "I think you're getting your Masters Degree."

"Eeeeek!" Rory squealed leaning over and giving him a huge hug. "Do you think Yale will let me back in?" she asked sitting on his lap.

He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her lightly. "Ace, after all the money your grandparents have donated I have no doubt in my mind that Yale will let you back in. But it probably wouldn't hurt to have dinner with them and talk about it."

She nodded. "Okay, I'll call them tomorrow. After I call and tell my mom."

"I think you should call her now."

"Grandma?"

"No, your mom; She'd want to know now." He handed her the phone. She dialed, still not moving from his lap.

"Hello?"

"Hey mom."

"Hi kid. What's up?"

"I've made a decision."

"A decision? Like, I'm buying a new toaster decision? Or I'm having a sex change decision?"

"Gross! Not as bad as the second one but way more important than the first one."

"Well?"

"I'm going to college!"

"Hon, you've already been to college."

"I'm going back to college. I'm getting my Masters Degree."

"Hon, that's great! I'm so proud of you!"

"Thanks."

"Do grandma and grandpa know yet?"

"No, after Logan helped me decide he demanded that I call you first."

"I love my almost son-in-law."

"We were actually going to see if we could have dinner with them so we could tell them and ask if they could help me possibly get back into Yale."

"I'll be there."

"Really?"

"Just tell me when and I'll bring the baby photos and a box of Kleenex."

"Thanks mom."

"Hey, listen I have to go, hon. Sookie's waving at me like the kitchen's on fire."

"Again?"

"Yeah. But hey, I'm coming over tomorrow with breakfast to celebrate."

"You don't have to do that."

"I want to."

"Okay. Bring the celebration breakfast foods."

"Luke's coffee and ice cream; Got it."

"Bye mom."

"See ya, kid."

She turned to Logan. "Done."

"You know I think we have a can of whipped cream in the fridge." He said picking her up.

"Logan! Put me down!"

"Not a chance, Ace. And I think we have chocolate sauce too."

"I love Sundae's."
