Rory and Logan were sitting in the living room in her apartment, an awkward silence between them. She just sat there, thinking of what to say, watching him sip his cup of coffee. She had tried several times before to say something, anything, but had failed. It took a few minutes to mustered up the courage she needed to begin the conversation that would either fix or break her relationship.
"I can't believe you did that."
"Well I had to prove to you that I wasn't going anywhere."
"You have no idea how bad I feel, I practically dared you to do it."
"But I wanted to. I had to." Logan said tenderly. Rory just smiled at him, she loved him, and he wasn't going anywhere. The thought brought a warm feeling to her heart.
"So what does this mean exactly?" Rory asked
"Well I think I should move in with you, and we can start working on the babies room, and lots of other stuff."
"You want to move in with me?"
"Why not? My dad is going to cut me off as soon as we tell them about the pregnancy, and I only have so much trust fund money. I like it here, it feels like the home I never had."
"That's a sweet sentiment."
"When do you think we should tell them? Next year, in five years?"
"How about next week"
"So soon? I guess dying young won't be so bad. You'll be with me."
"Don't be so dramatic." Rory said rolling her eyes.
"How about Friday, Ace, seem like a good day to die?"
"I cant', Friday night dinner."
"You going to tell them on Friday?"
"May as well get it over with, I have been hiding it from them long enough."
"How about Wednesday for my parents then. And I will even offer what is left of my body to go with you to Friday night dinner."
"Why Logan you are such a gentlemen."
"Edward Lewis has nothing on me." Logan said teasingly.
"Would that make me the hooker?" Rory said, mocking offence.
"They do live happily ever after in the end." Logan said smiling. And it was with that, that she knew everything was going to be all right between them.
Lorelai's POVIt was a movie night, and Lorelai and Luke were cuddled on the couch, with a pile of junk food coving the coffee table.
"I know we have been together for two years now, but I still can't get over how much food you can consume in one sitting."
"Of all the things to focus on, that's it? Why Luke Danes I am so turned on right now by how obviously appalled you are at me." Lorelai said sarcastically
"Well…"
"Come on. Haven't you ever seen Jerry Springer? This is nothing."
"Sorry don't watch it. That is such trash, why would you even waste time on a show like that anyway?"
"First my eating habits, and now my TV choices. You're so getting lucky tonight."
"I'm just saying." Luke said teasingly. "Lets just go back to the movie, before I am banned from your bed for more than just tonight."
"That's probably a good idea. Stop while your ahead" And they went back to the film. Lorelai spent the next hour focused on the film, trying to keep her mind off telling Luke about that night with Christopher. Everything was going so well, and she didn't want to screw it up, not again.
"Your awfully quiet tonight." Luke said, interrupting her thoughts
"Trying to concentrate on the movie so hush."
"Right, you quiet during a movie. What is going on Lorelai?"
"Well. I've been trying to ignore why I actually asked you here tonight."
"I don't like the sound of this."
"Luke," she said turning on the couch to face him "I slept with Christopher."
"What. When?"
"The night you said you wouldn't marry me. I was really upset, and I needed a friend. And, well, I was vulnerable and one thing led to another…"
"I can't believe this." Luke said standing up "How could you do something like that. You cheated on me, and whose to say all those times you were with him wasn't the same. When you went to his house, when his dad died…God. I trusted you."
"This was different, we were over and I was hurt. Nothing happened any other time I swear."
"And why should I believe you?"
"Because I love you, Luke, isn't that enough."
"I thought that it was, but maybe I was wrong." And he walked out of the house. Leaving Lorelai sitting on the couch alone.
