Rory wiped the tears from her face and went digging into the depths of her suitcase. She couldn't take it anymore, to hell with society, damn the lady she was supposed to be. Rory's hands finally found the velvet bag at the bottom of her suitcase, no sooner had she placed the bag on her bed than there was a gentle knock on the door. She quickly hurried to the door and looked through the peep hole. Rory smiled a sad smile to herself; Logan was standing there, looking as sad as she felt.
"Hey," she said engulfing him in a hug, "come on in."
"This is lunacy." Logan ranted. "What the hell are they doing with our lives?"
"Shh, it'll be okay, somehow we're going to get through this, I have no idea how but somehow we are going to get through this. Be a doll and lock the door."
"Bubbles is what's in that bag what I think is in there?"
"Depends, what do you think is in there Huntzburger?"
"You're a bold women Lorelei Leigh Gilmore Hayden, and I love you for it." Logan said smirking.
"I know, now lets get on with it shall we?" Rory smiled as she pulled her bowl out of the bag.
"So what are we going to do about all this?" Logan asked as he and Rory lay on the bed twenty minutes later.
"I guess we're getting married."
"You're okay with that?"
"Well I mean, it could be worse," Rory sighed "at least they didn't promise us to complete strangers or something. What about you?"
"Ya, I mean, I guess you're right, but hell I don't know what the hell I'm supposed to be feeling right now, much less thinking!"
"I'm as lost as you are; I have no idea how to feel about it. And I want my proposal to mean something, I've dreamed about it forever; I don't want it to be something people are forcing. Fuck I was just starting to figure out how I felt about you."
"What do you mean, feeling out how you felt about me? You've dreamed about you're proposal?"
"Of course I've dreamed about my proposal."
"And what do you dream when you see it?"
"Perfection, sheer perfection, I want it to be a surprise, nothing flashy, something I will always remember, something that will take my breath away . . ." Rory drifted off as tears filled in her eyes.
"Shh," Logan said comforting her, "it's going to be okay; somehow I promise this will all be ok. Now don't bite my head off, but what do you mean about just figuring out how you felt about me?"
Logan received no response except a plethora of tears from his fiancé's eyes as she buried her head in his chest.
"Just hold me, please just hold me." Rory sobbed as she curled in closer to Logan.
"Okay sweetheart," Logan said holding her, "we'll sort it all out later, just relax, it will all be ok." Logan finished as he kissed her on the head.
Sleep refused to come to Logan no matter how hard he tried. His head was filled with differentiating thoughts. Part of him was ecstatic about the news that he and Rory were engaged, he was also anxious about the comment Rory had made about sorting out her feelings for him, Logan was also concerned about the social impact this would have on both him and Rory once they got back home. Half way through the night he felt Rory stir in his arms.
"Hey there handsome." Rory whispered as she opened her eyes.
"Hey sweetheart, how are you feeling?"
"Better, defiantly more relaxed."
"Think we could talk maybe"
"Ya, lets talk." Rory said as she straightened herself up slightly.
"So do you think I can ask you something?"
"Go ahead."
"Promise me you'll answer?"
"Yes Logan I promised that I'll answer."
"What did you mean when you said you were just starting to figure out how you felt about me?"
"Exactly what it sounded like, Logan I've known you my entire life, you have always been there for me, and I don't know, its stupid, I thought I may have been falling for you."
"Bubbles, it's not stupid, it's the farthest thing from stupid I have ever heard actually."
"Oh yeah, what makes you say that?"
"Cause, I just might be feeling the same way."
"Are you being serious?"
"Yes I'm being serious, it's just like you said, we've been together our entire lives, in all honesty we're closer than probably any other two people in the entire world are, and to be honest, well, you know I have always loved you, but I think I may have started to fall into a different sort of love with you."
"Really?" Rory asked her eyes filling with a certain sparkle that Logan had only seen a few times in their entire lives.
"Yes Lorelei, I mean, yeah, this whole engagement thing is weird, but I'm not going to lie, part of me likes it. I mean, I guess somewhere in the back of my mind I always pictured us together."
"Me too, it seemed like, we always had something there, more than a friendship I don't know, but it always felt like there was something else there."
"So do you think we can find a way for all this to work?"
"Yeah, I think between the two of us we will defiantly find a way to make this work." Rory smiled as Logan took her hand.
"Can I tell you something and not have you get all creped out on me?"
"Logan, of course you can tell me anything."
"Lorelei Leigh Gilmore Hayden I love you, I'm sure of it. I truly madly deeply love you, in every sense of the word."
"Logan Elias Monroe Huntzburger, I love you too, in every way possible, and if there was anyone I could be engaged to it would be you."
"Well sometime over the course of this vacation I'm going to propose to you, but not yet, I want it to be everything you want it to be and more."
"Thank you so much Logan, thank you for everything." Rory smiled at him.
"Anything and everything for you, whatever makes you happy."
"I love you."
"I love you too." Logan smirked as he leaned in and kissed his fiancé.
