AN: Hi... I changed my mind. Don't hate me haha. I'm not going to change the rating yet. There is a little more sexual stuff here but not enough to be worth of a change yet. I'm going to put a little line and M before that section so that you guys can skip over it if you want to. This chapter jumps around alot, so try and keep up, I'm sorry if i confuse you. This is the prelude to the Homecoming dance. I've been having major writers block too and it's not helping my story, it's making writing very frustration so bare with me! Oh and on my profiel I uncluded helpful links that fit the descriptions for the dress and also the characters that are based one actors, like Aiden! and the main characters. When or if Austin and Matt get back into the story they'll be added there as well as JEss and other people so go take a look
I don't own anything.
Rory's friends had already arrived and had called her several times over the intercom to hurry her ass down which only made her go slower. She stepped out of her closet in her Betty Boop pajamas and was about to walk out the door when a voice spoke from her bed.
"Is that anyway to greet your amazingly gorgeous boyfriend Ace?" said Logan's voice. Rory turned to find Logan sitting on her bed with his arms crossed and his usual smirk. He was wearing sweatpants and a wife beater that Rory could see his chiseled stomach through. Apparently, the group had come dressed in sleeping clothes. As her eyes traveled up and down his body his smirk grew. "Like what you see, or am I wearing too much for your taste?" he said with a teasing tone.
Rory just feigned a laugh and walked over to him giving him a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
"What that's all?" Logan asked with disappointment in his voice.
"Sorry I didn't have enough time to organize the Ticker-Tate parade, how will I ever make it up to you?" Rory said with heavy sarcasm.
"Oh I can think of a few ways," Logan said with a smirk before hungrily attacking her lips. As if it was a reflex, Rory wrapped her arms around his neck tangling her fingers in his hair. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her hard against his body. She pushed him onto his back with her hovering over him, looks of lust mirrored in each others eyes. "Rory, are you sure about-," Logan started concerned, but before he could finish Rory's lips were on his. Rory was as sure as anything that she wanted to do this.
MRory now had Logan on her bed underneath her, straddling his lap. She could practically feel him get harder with every touch she gave him. She kissed his lips with hunger, nibbling on his bottom lip causing him to let out groans of approval. Suddenly, she felt him grab her hips and flip them over, so he was on top, in control. He pinned her arms over her head while tracing kissed from her lips to her jaw to down her neck. He reached her collar bone and sucked gently, enjoying the sounds of pleasure he made.
After Logan was sure he left his mark on her, he moved back up to her lips begging for entrance with she gave and to his surprise she started to suck on his tongue. He couldn't help grunt at this. He found it so sexy that Rory was taking control as she pulled his light shirt off of him and traced her nails up and down his stomach muscles and to his back, leaving a burning trail of heat on his skin. He pulled away from her and looked her in her now dark blue eyes before pulling off the only barrier between his skin and hers, her tank top. Now she was left clad in only a lacy black bra which he quickly pulled off and threw to the side.
Rory let out a guttural moan as Logan pressed his hard muscles against her soft yet aroused breasts and began to breathe heavily. She unconsciously played with the band of his sweatpants as he detached his mouth from hers and slowly made his way to her neck, then to the valley between her breasts. She let out a gasp when he swiftly took her breast's center into his mouth, sucking gently, and rubbed the other one roughly with his hand. She moaned Logan's name as his mouth gave the same attention to her other breast before moving back up to her mouth and grinding his hard groin in between her legs. Rory continued to toy with the band of his pants and was about to pull them down when an Australian voice boomed from the intercom.M
"We really don't want to know what's taking you two so long but if you two would kindly come down stairs so we can play a nice good old game of strip 'I Never' it would be greatly appreciated," called Finn.
The two sighed and sat up. Rory grabbed her shirt and bra and put them on. "You know I think we need new friends. Mute ones," she said trying to calm her nerves down. "Yeah," Logan said rubbing his forehead and putting his shirt on.
As soon as Logan lifted his head up to look at Rory, her lips attached themselves to his, gently and undemanding. "We can always finish this another time," she whispered in his ear giving it a nibble causing him to groan. "We have to finish this another time," he replied hoarsely. She just smirked and made her way towards the door.
"Are you coming?" Rory asked confused.
"I think I have to use the bathroom first," he replied. Rory put on a smirk. "See you in a couple hours," she said giggling. He feigned laughter. "Says the girl who was moaning my name a couple seconds ago," Logan said with a big smirk making his was to the bathroom causing Rory to blush furiously.
"Hey Ace, Master and Commander," Logan said from inside the bathroom about to close the door.
"What?" she asked confused.
"I think that's a suitable pet name for me. Master and Commander," he said with a laugh before shutting the door. Rory just groaned. "Cocky ass!" she yelled just before making her way downstairs to the basement where her friends were waiting.
Rory reached the bottom of the steps to see all of her friends staring at her expectantly with big smirks on.
"What took you so long Rory?" Tristan asked with a knowing smile.
"I lost my phone and Logan was helping me find it," Rory said trying to sound as nonchalant as possible.
"So where's Logan?" Colin asked who had a smile on just like Tristan.
"He had to use the bathroom."
"Oh. So you two were looking for your phone and then he went to use the bathroom?" Louise asked with an eyebrow raised.
"Yea, is that so hard to believe?" Rory asked, she found no flaws in her fiblette.
"Love where did the hickey come in? Did your neck get some body spread accidentally on it while you were looking for the phone and then Logan had no choice but to suck it off?" Finn asked with laughter.
Rory immediately brought her hand up to her neck where she knew Logan was sucking and blushed, she was just about to make up another excuse when Logan came bounding down the steps. "Hey guys what are we doing?" he asked not noticing Rory was holding her neck.
"Trying to figure out what took you and Rory so long," Steph asked, leading the two into a trap.
"Did you find what you were looking for?" Madeline asked, truly concerned, unaware that she was helping trick the two.
"Yea, we found it…" Logan looked at Rory out of the corner of his eye as she tugged on her ear and made motions towards her ear. "It was in the jewelry box the whole time," he said sounding more like he was asking than telling. He saw Rory subtly shake her head but knew there was no getting out of it.
"So how'd Rory get the hickey then?" Tristan questioned laughing about how stupid the two's excuse was.
Logan turned to Rory who had now picked up her hand to show him the mark he left and Logan couldn't help but put on a large smirk. Rory just gave him a dirty look before changing the subject, "Don't we have some kind of game you want to play Finn?" Rory said with a pleading look for him to go along with it. Finn felt like they had dragged the questioning on long enough so he decided to allow it.
"Yes we're going to play strip 'I never'," Finn said with pride, he was the one who came up with the idea. He knew that the girls, especially Rory, wouldn't want to play a regular alcoholic game of 'I never' because they had school the next day so he had improvised.
"What the hell is that?" Logan asked sitting down and pulling Rory into his lap, wrapping his arms around her waist. Finn gave a look of disgust before speaking. "God you two are so bloody cute, quit it before we all break out in song with pink bunnies as back up dancers. And it's like 'I never', someone says something they've never done and then if anyone else has done that they take off an item of clothing instead of taking a shot," he explained.
"Sounds good," Rory said sliding off Logan's lap and sitting in between him and Steph, happy that she wore socks. "Let's make is so we can request a story if someone takes something off and we didn't expect it," Louise said. Everyone agreed and Steph spoke, "Remember this is to find out about each other, so no stupid ones like I never pee sitting down to try and get us naked FINN." Finn just shot her a dirty look.
"I'll start!" Tristan exclaimed. "I never kissed a person of the same sex with tongue," he said with a smirk to Rory, he was trying to get back at her for her period story. Louise and Madeline began to take off her socks but no one asked for a story; they knew that Madeline and Louise kissed each other to get into nightclubs illegally. When everyone was quiet and looking around to see if anyone one else was guilty Tristan gave Rory a pointed look. As slowly and secretly as she could, Rory took her socks off.
At first, the group thought she was just warm. "Ace why don't you just turn the air up?" Logan asked. Rory just blushed and everyone gasped while Tristan snickered. "I'm so taking away your best friend privileges," Rory said with a glare to Tristan.
"Story!" Finn yelled eagerly, "And please feel free to be as descriptive as possible," he said with a wink. Rory sighed. "You tell it since you have to be such a big mouth," Rory said to Tristan while becoming very interested with her nails.
"Ok well it was the year before junior year and me, Rory, Austin, and Matt all got invited to this giant party for this senior that was like in love with Rory," Tristan started.
"You never cease to impress me Hayden," Louise commented. Rory just winked causing the girls to laugh. Logan placed a territorial arm around Rory's shoulder.
"Anyways, some how we all got pulled into this game of spin the bottle. All of us had a lot to drink and so we all agreed that each kiss, no matter if it was with a girl or boy, that it would be hard, full, tongue battling kiss. We all knew that the senior, Greg, only made up those rules so that he could get into a full fledged make out session with Rory so me, Austin, and Matt were keeping an eye out for her. So it's finally Rory's turn and Greg's licking his lips and looking all excited. Rory spins the beer bottle and it lands to the person who's sitting next to Greg: a heavily intoxicated but still gorgeous senior girl named Juliet. Rory was a little buzzed too and let me tell you it was quite a show! I'm mean like hands in hair hardcore," Tristan said with a laugh and a smirk. Rory balled her socks and threw them violently at his face.
"Was the last part really necessary?" Rory asked with bitterness trying not to blush from the smirks the whole group had on their faces.
"At least I didn't tell them I have a picture on my phone," Tristan said laughing, "Oops!" he said with a smirk and more laughter while flipping his phone open and closed. Rory was about to jump on Tristan and try and delete the picture when Finn beat her too it. Finn grabbed the phone and pressed the buttons furiously, at the same time of keeping the phone out of Rory's reach. All of a sudden, he stopped all movement and put on a satisfied smile.
"Beautiful love!" Finn said. Rory just growled at him before he pulled out his own cell phone and watching it until it lit up. "New picture message. Don't you just love those words kitten?" he said with a smile.
"You people are evil," Rory yelled before trudging up the steps to go to her room to sleep.
"We didn't even get to play the game!" whined Stephanie.
"Yes love, but I got a picture of Rory making out with another girl so I got even more than I wanted out of the game!" he said with a smirk waving around his cell phone which Logan quickly grabbed and groaned at the sight. "So mate, what were you doing upstairs?" asked Finn knowingly. Logan just glared at him before copying Rory's actions and going upstairs to sleep. "Encore presentation huh?" Colin said laughing. The group just laughed before all deciding to turn in.
"Rory I can't do this anymore," Logan said with a soft voice and tears in his eyes.
"What?" Rory asked confused, "I-I don't understand, things were going fine was it something I did?"
"No, I just I can't do this anymore. I can't be with you anymore," he replied with a bare whisper.
"What are you saying? You don't mean this Logan, stop lying!" Rory yelled.
"Please, this would have never worked before. Wake up," Logan said, his voice going slightly feminine.
"What did you say?" Rory asked confused on change of tone.
"Wake up!" he said again he repeated, voice still feminine. "Rory wake up and stop mumbling Logan's name it's really gross!" said the voice. Rory fluttered her eyes open to see a perky blonde looking at her with a cup of coffee in her hand.
"Steph?" Rory asked wiping the sleep from her eyes and trying to figure out what was going on.
"Very good you know my name now only after 3 weeks!" she said rolling her eyes. "Here drink this so you can tell me why you were practically moaning Logan's name," she added shoving in Rory's hand.
"What are you doing here?" Rory asked confused before gulping down her elixir of life.
"God you're slow when in the morning," Louise said while appearing from behind the curtain with Madeline and sitting next to Rory on the bed. "We slept over here last night. It's Saturday and we have to get ourselves glam for Homecoming. The guys are staying at Colin's house so that they don't get to see us and they're going to pick us up here tonight at 5 for dinner then we're going to the Homecoming dance and winning you the crown and then we're staying at the four rooms Logan booked at the Four Seasons for us."
Rory sat blinking and processing everything Louise had just said. "Ok," was all she said before sticking out her mug asking for a refill. Stephanie pulled the pot from her desk and refilled it while asking once again, "So why were you moaning Logan's name?"
"You had a sex dream? Those are the best!" Madeline said with a smile. The girls just looked at her before rolling their eyes.
"No it was horrible. I was having this dream where he was telling he couldn't be with me anymore and I kept asking him why and he just kept say he couldn't," Rory said shivering at the thought.
"Aww well it was just a dream," Steph said sympathetically before changing her tone drastically. "Now get you cute ass up we have a lot to do. You have to shower and then we have to get out nails done, get our massages, get our hair done, make-up done, pack things for staying in the hotel room, and then get dressed!" she yelled out in one breath.
"Sir yes sir!" Rory said with a salute before going into the bathroom to shower and change.
"Mmmm," moaned Louise. "Gustav I am making a shrine for you when I get home," she said to her Columbian masseur causing the girls to giggle.
"Great idea on the massages Louise," Rory said with a relaxed voice. The four girls were all lined up next to each other on massaging tables, enjoying the touch of their buff exotic masseurs' hands. Rory wasn't used to this kind of high class living, but she had to admit that she could get used to it. The four were enjoying the peace of the room that was quickly broken when Rory's ring tone played.
She lazily grabbed it and flipped it open and moaned a, "Hello," as Mateo, her masseur, hit a particularly sensitive spot. "Right there Mateo is perfect," she purred completely forgetting the person on the phone.
Logan had called Rory to check up on her, he hadn't talked to her all morning and was hoping the girls weren't overwhelming her with whatever those girls did in preparation for big nights. He dialed her number, despite the teasing and kissy noises the guys were making, and pressed Send hoping she would answer.
He was surprised when her greeting was a moan and she said something involving another guy's name. The other guys raised their eyebrows in interest.
"Ace?" he asked slightly confused and slightly protective.
"Logan?" Rory replied turning to look at Louise lying next to her giggling.
"Who's Mateo?" he asked half protectively and half with a smirk.
"My other boyfriend, but don't tell Master and Commander that he can be a little too aggressive sometimes," Rory said with a smirk of her own. The girls next to her scrunched up their noses, they didn't want to listen to Rory's nickname for Logan and they didn't want to know the reasoning for it either.
"Ha ha, very funny Ace. But seriously, what are you ladies up to? You're not at some strip club or something are you?"
"Now why would we go and pay to see guys strip when we have Finn around?" Rory said causing the girls to laugh and Finn to put on a very self-righteous smirk. "We're getting massages right now and then we're going to get all packed before the makeup artist and the hair stylist arrives at my house. What are you guys up to?"
"Nothing, just hanging out, we don't need as much prep time as you." Logan said. "I miss you Ace," he said quietly, trying to avoid being bombarded with teasing.
Unfortunately all the guys heard him and Tristan brought a hand up to his heart with a feigned touched face on. "Our little boy is growing up so fast!" Finn exclaimed throwing an arm around Tristan and Colin. "It feels like just yesterday we were giving him the talk and handing him condoms!" Colin said with fake tears.
"It was," Finn replied laughing causing Tristan to glare at him. "So don't want to know if that's true man," Tristan said with disgust. Rory and Logan having sex. Yuck.
"Aw, I miss you too Master and Commander," Rory said with a giggle causing the girls to roll their eyes. "Sickeningly sweet," Steph said making gagging noises from the other side of Louise. Rory just rolled her eyes.
"I can't wait to see you tonight; care to give me a clue about the dress?"
"Nope, you'll just have to wait and see Logan. Patience is a virtue!" Rory preached.
"Mean girlfriend. Listen, I have to go eat some lunch. I can't wait to see you babe," he said with a goofy smile causing the guys to mock him by copying him.
"Bye Logan, can't wait to see you either," she said.
"Bye I l--," Logan started but quickly stopped himself. Whoa what the hell? Were you just about to tell her you love her?
"Did he almost say what I think he almost said?" Colin asked with his mouth open. The other two just nodded and watching him sweat and look nervous.
"I'll see you later," he quickly said, hanging up before Rory could say anything back.
When Logan had hung up, Rory stared at her phone with her mouth open before closing it shut and shaking her head. Louise, Steph, and Madeline all looked at her concerned before putting their heads back down. "Rory are you alright you look like you just saw Finn naked?" Stephanie asked, voice slightly muffled from the cushion her face was in.
"Logan almost said he loved me," Rory mumbled. "What?" all the girls screamed shooting their heads back up and nearly taking out their messieurs who were working on their shoulders. "When he was saying good bye he said 'I l-,' before stopping himself and mumbling I'll see you later," she said trying to evaluate what just happened. The girls just looked at her amazed, they couldn't believe that Logan almost said that. This was the first time since Logan and Marissa broke up that he actually tried to say that word.
After a silence in which everyone was just thinking about what was happening Rory admitted, "I wanted him to say it, and I wanted to say it back." She looked over to the girls to see what they sad only to find that they were getting up and motioning for the masseurs to leave with tears in their eyes. Rory looked at them confused. "You're in love!" Steph said getting up and hugging Rory crying. Louise and Madeline followed while Rory stared at them like they had gone crazy.
"Why are you crying?" Rory asked trying to comfort them even though she was the one in the dilemma.
"Because… You're the first girl since Marissa he's ever wanted to say that too. And you're the only girl he's really cared about … ever!" Stephanie managed to squeak before breaking down in tears again.
"We're so happy that it's you and not some slut," sobbed Madeline. "Guys just… calm down please, I'm so confused!" Rory exclaimed.
Logan closed his phone with a sigh and held it up to his forehead as if trying to mentally erase all of the conversations that ever took place through it; especially the one just said. After he had composed himself and made sure he wasn't going into mental overdrive, he looked up to see his friends staring at him incredulous. "What?" he spat, hoping that they wouldn't make such a big deal of it, even though he knew there was no such luck.
"Do you love her?" Tristan asked getting straight to the point. The other two guys looked at Tristan as he asked and turned back to Logan with inquisitive looks in their eyes. Logan just stared back at them thinking of a way he could possibly deny it but he found none. He was in love and there was no more lying to himself and his friends about it.
"Yeah," he sighed starting to feel that mental break down coming back.
"Are you going to tell her mate?" Finn asked interested. He was almost 100 percent sure Rory felt the same way but didn't want to pressure Logan into telling her when he wasn't truly ready yet.
"I was about to," Logan replied quietly. It was weird for the guys too see him that way. They always saw him as their leader and so composed in everything he did, never too high strung. But here he was, stressing over this new beautiful brunette that entered their lives with a bang.
"Let's go play a game of basketball before getting ready, the endorphins will make you happy and clear your mind," suggested Colin. The other guys just agreed, normally they would suggest getting a drink but they didn't want to be completely inebriated and ruin both their and the girl's night.
The girls had to the best of their abilities gotten Rory to forget about the whole dilemma on whether to bring up the subject with Logan or not and were now getting their hair and make up done. Eventually, the girls had calmed down at the spa and reassured Rory that it wouldn't make things awkward and went home to pack their bags before the make up artists and hair stylists arrived. Lorelai had hired four different people for each job so that all the girls could their own personal look shine through without having to sacrifice time.
All four of them sat in row in front of Lorelai's master bathroom vanity on high chairs getting their hair and makeup done at the same time. To say they felt like celebrities would be an understatement, much to the contentment of Louise.
Rory involuntarily nipped on her lip, worried about how the night would go. She was worried about winning the crown but more importantly she was worried about how things would be with Logan. She had some hopes that tonight Logan would tell her those words that she so wanted to hear, but at the same time she was worried about getting too serious with him too fast. Although it was just a dream, that image in her mind of Logan breaking up with her had seems so real that she couldn't help but think that it was a premonition instead of a reverie.
"Hayden you keep doing that and you'll get a fat lip," Louise scolded. She was watching Rory from the mirror the whole time and knew exactly what she was feeling. Louise knew Rory wanted to be loved but was scared at the same time. She knew because it was the more extreme version of how she felt towards Tristan at the time. The two were going to Homecoming together and yet she didn't know if she wanted the two's relationship to be only a one night thing or if she was ready to commit. Ever since Summer had taken Travis from her, relationships seemed more of a torture to her than an lifetime experience. She was unsure about what she felt for Tristan, somewhere deep inside she was feeling more lust that anything else.
At Louise's words Rory quickly stopped and took a breath. "I'm just so worried," she said with her voice shaking.
"Rory, he loves you. What is there to be nervous about? If he loves you and you love him, things will just feel right no matter what the situation is. I mean come on you survived the encounter with Dean and Marissa, can you imagine how awkward that would have been if Logan hadn't been open with you and you with him? Just breath and look hot," Stephanie lectured. Rory stared at her in the mirror for a little, thinking about her words. She was right and Rory knew it, all she had to do was remember that instead of stressing out and over analyzing things.
"Finn if you don't get out of the shower in 10 seconds I'm flushing the toilet and boiling your Aussie ass!" Tristan yelled into the bathroom.
Logan chuckled as he checked himself in the mirror. He looked at his black suit that contrasted with his light blue shirt he wore, advised by Rory, and put on his white gold cufflinks that had his initials engraved into them. He ran a hand through his already tousled blonde hair. He hated using any form of hair supplies except shampoo, it just wasn't his thing. Just as he picked up his striped black and light blue tie, Finn came stumbling out of the bathroom in nothing but his tan Australian skin.
"Go ahead mate," he said to Tristan who was looking at him in disgust. Finn just ignored it and walked to the mirror to stand behind Logan.
"Finn, there are towels in the bathroom for a reason," Logan said, trying his hardest not to look down in the mirror.
"The polyester blend makes my crotch itch mate," he said grabbing some deodorant from the table that had all his things.
"That's disgusting," Logan said devoting all of his attention to his tie now. He heard the door open behind them.
"Hey are you guys almost ready?" Colin said looking down at his watch and not up at Logan and Finn. He lifted his eyes to see instead of waiting for their slow responses but quickly covered them when he saw Finn's bare ass. "Apparently not," he mumbled. "Logan why are you in the same room as a naked Finn and better yet why is Finn naked when we have to leave in 15 minutes?"
Before Logan could answer, Tristan came out of the bathroom from his super fast shower with his hair sticking up slightly from running his hand through his hair with mousse. He wasn't the one to put hours into his hair, but he also wasn't the one to just leave it the way it was like Logan, his hair wasn't as cooperative as Logan's. He was dressed in his black slacks and socks, but that was the extent of what he was wearing. "Finn put some damn clothes on before we all puke on ourselves," Tristan yelled going to a hanger that had his red shirt and black tie hanging from it.
Finn just ignored Tristan's comment and made his way over to the other side of the room where his black suit and white dress shirt with green tie were hanging. "Looking good mate," he said to Colin who also wearing a black suit and white shirt with a black and silver pinstriped tie. Unlike the others, Colin was fully dressed with his hair spiked at the front end. He was always the most consistent in his style out of the group. He barely stepped out of his style's box, and didn't go with the trends of the season.
"Thanks Finn. Why are you wearing a green tie? Madeline's color is pink," Colin said worrying that Finn would totally mismatch with his date.
"That's good to know mate but I'm not going with Madeline," Finn said quickly putting on his things when Logan anxiously tapped on his watch.
"Who are you going with?" Tristan asked putting away the last of his clothes in his over night bag and checking himself one last time in the mirror before standing next to Colin to show he was ready to go.
"Myself, mate, I don't need to be tied down by any girl," Finn said gelling his long wavy hair back in the mirror.
"Then why are you wearing a green tie?" Logan asked packing up the last of his belongings in his overnight bag and copying Tristan's actions.
"Brings out the eyes mate," Finn explained as he rushed to put on his suit jacket. The guys never really bothered noticing what color's Finn's eyes were, but now that he mentioned it the green tie almost made his brown eyes sparkle with emerald.
"So, are you telling the little kitten you love her tonight mate?" Finn asked trying to buy himself time to pack his belongings into his bag he was bringing to the hotel.
Logan froze. In all honesty, he hadn't even though about doing that but it didn't sound like such a bad idea. But love as he knew it wasn't something he could prepare to do, it wasn't like asking her to marry him that would require elaborate planning. Saying I love you to him was more like a reflex action, as he proved to himself when he almost blurted it out of the phone. If he felt it was right tonight, then he would say it but he wasn't going to let it bother him and think about it, he didn't want to be uptight and make things with him and Rory weird. "If it happens it happens," Logan said. The guys nodded, they wouldn't push it any farther than it had to go.
"Ready to go?" Colin asked the guys as a whole. "Ready," Tristan said leading the guys out of the room. Ready for anything thought Logan as he shut the lights off in the room and set off for the night he knew would be one to remember.
AN: Review, and tell me somethings that will get me out of this horrible writer's block!
