Disclaimer: Once again, I don't own Gilmore Girls. If I did, then Logan would be mine.

Chapter 9

A couple days after seeing Steph in the bathroom, she told Doyle that she was going to change her story. She told him about what she had researched about the LDB and how she would like to write an article about them. He told her that it would make an interesting article and to go with it.

She was outside, in the courtyard, when she saw Logan, Colin, and Finn. She had already told Logan that she would probably come up to them that day, so Logan wasn't surprised when he heard her, "Hey, Huntzberger!"

"Hey! You waiting on me?" Logan asked with a smirk, keeping up the charade that he doesn't really know her, other than the few times he has seen her on campus.

"Could be." She replied with a smile, looking at his friends.

"Wow, I'm flattered." He said, making a show for Colin and Finn.

"Your prerogative." She said dryly.

"You here on business or pleasure?" She raised an eyebrow at him and smirked at his question.

"I just thought maybe I'd give you a chance to respond to my article?" She said to him, hoping to catch the attention of Colin and Finn.

"What article?" Logan already knowing the article, was playing up the question.

"The article I'm doing on the Life and Death Brigade." As soon as she mentioned the LDB, Colin and Finn's heads whipped around towards her, she pretended not to notice and continued to talk with Logan.

"Don't really know what you're talking about." Logan replied with a generic answer, since she already knew about the LDB, but Colin and Finn didn't know that she knew about them. This is going to be so much fun, to mess with their heads, Logan chuckled internally.

Rory started to explain what she had researched, "You don't? Huh. I thought you would. It's a club. One of these super secret, super exclusive clubs here at Yale, membership spans a thousand centuries, secret handshakes and secret sayings, and a lot of running around in circles in your underwear, that kind of thing."

Logan was having a hard time not laughing out loud at the panicked expression on Colin's face, "Sounds pretty secret."

"Yeah. Anyhow, I'm doing sort of an exposé on this one particular club and I figured, since you're in it, maybe you'd like to have your point of view included." She said to them.

"I'm in it?" Logan asked, trying to sound shocked that she would think that.

"Yes. So are your lackey's." She could barely contain the smile on her face, as Colin paled and Finn's eyes bugged out of his head.

"Oh really? And why do you think that we are in it?" Logan asked, finding the reactions of Colin and Finn hilarious.

"Well, I know that there are six founders. Huntzberger, Morgan, McCrea –," As soon as she started naming off the founders, Colin interrupted her.

"Okay. Okay. Let's take this someplace more private." Colin said, giving Logan a pointed glare.

"Alright, where do you want to go?" Rory asked him, glancing briefly at Logan.

"Um...How about we go to the pub. We can get a table or booth in the back." Colin suggested.

"Yeah. I am going to need as much bloody alcohol as I can get for this conversation." Finn said, adding his opinion.

Logan laughed at Finn, "Is the pub okay with you?" he asked Rory.

"Yeah, that sounds fine to me. Let's go." Rory said and took off walking towards the pub.

They get to the pub and find a table secluded in the back. They all sit down, not talking, not really sure what to say. Logan looks over at Rory, he gives her a wink before he starts talking, "Okay. So we know she knows enough about the LDB to actually write something. We can try to deny it all we want, but the truth is that she knows too much to deny it any longer."

He sees a smile form on Rory's face, he turned to Colin, who still looked a little pale, "So what do you say Colin, give her an interview, an exclusive. We can control what she says, but we all have to cooperate with each other."

"Okay. I agree with you Logan," Colin sighed and turned to Rory, "We will give you an interview, but on our own terms."

"Okay. I agree with that. But I want something in return," Rory said, looking at all of them, "I want to come to an event. See what it is that you all do, how you do it, etc." She smirked at Logan, who gave her an appreciative nod. He was proud that she was taking control of the situation and demanding something in return, so that she can make the most of her article.

"No. No, no, no. We cannot allow that. No outsiders." Colin protested rudely.

"And why not." Rory asked sternly.

Colin, being the elitist snob that he is, "The LDB is for the elite at Yale. We don't want some common person to see what we do at our events." Logan worked to hold his anger in. He knew how much of a snob Colin could be, but for him to say something like that to Rory, was stepping over the line.

"Well you obviously have no idea who I am," Rory said smugly, "I am going to go, why don't you come to me, when you figure out just who I am." Rory stated, standing up and looking at all three of them, before biding them goodbye and walking out of the pub.

Logan could barely contain the laugh that was bubbling within him, but a small smile did creep out onto his face, "Colin, you didn't have to be so rude."

"Do you know what she is talking about?" Colin asked Logan.

"Well, kinda, I know her last name." Logan told him, as he signaled for another drink.

"Well, are you going to tell me or not." Colin asked impatiently.

"I don't know. You were rude, maybe I should let you find out for yourself." Logan said as seriously as he could.

"Logan! Seriously, tell me her last name." Colin exclaimed loudly, getting frustrated with Logan.

"Alright, alright. She's a Gilmore." Logan stated simply.

"She's a-a-a Gilmore? What?" Colin asked, a little confused.

"That's what I said, she is a Gilmore." Logan said again and took a long sip of his scotch.

"But I didn't think there was a Gilmore legacy on campus." Colin said, rubbing his forehead.

"She is a sophomore. We probably would have known about her, had we been here last year." Logan said with a smile on his face.

Finn saw this smile, "Logan, is there something about this beautiful sheila, that you are not telling us."

"I don't know what your talking about Finn." Logan said, running his hand through his hair, a nervous habit.

"I think your hiding something from us, mate. And I think that something had to do with reporter girl." Finn said, looking pointedly at Logan.

"You're delusional, Finn," Logan said, getting up from the table, "Colin, think about it. I think, given the fact that she is a Gilmore, she has a right to come to an event. I know initiation isn't until December, but maybe we can invite her to the one this weekend, just as a reporter, before she gets initiated. Let me know. If you say yes, then I will lay the ground rules down and everything." Logan threw some money on the table and left the pub. He couldn't help the grin that came across his face, this time, as he thought about how Rory handled herself with Colin.

As he started walking back to his dorm, he pulled his phone out and called her, "Hey Ace." He said as soon as she picked up the phone.

"Hey Logan." Logan could hear the smile in her voice.

"Well I think you are a shoe in to come to the next event. You will be there strictly as a reporter, and there will be some ground rules. Now, I don't know all the details yet, Colin was going to think about it then get back to me." He told her.

"That's fine, just let me know." Rory replied, happy to actually get to talk to him, without Colin and Finn there.

"Hey, Lanny is gone for the afternoon, if you don't have anything to do, do you want to come over to my dorm? We can watch a movie or something, if you want." Logan asked, hoping that she would agree.

"Yeah, that sounds fine, I will see you in a little while. I was going to stop by my room first and see what Paris was doing." Rory said.

"So, say, 30 minutes or so." Logan asked, as he unlocked his door and walked in.

"Yeah, that sounds about right," Rory said, "I will see you then."

"Okay, see you then. Bye, Ace." Logan said, as he hung up the phone.

Logan was reading the paper, when he heard a knock on his front door, he looked at the time and saw that it was almost time for Rory to be here, so he just thought that she was showing up early, "Ace, your my wife, you should be able to just walk in without having to knock." Logan said with a huge grin on his face as he opened the door. As soon as he saw who was there, the grin fell off of his face.

Standing there with her perfectly manicured eyebrow arched, was his sister, Honor, "Hey, little brother. Want to explain that greeting?" she asked him, as she walked into his dorm.

"Um...Honor, Hey. What are you doing here?" Logan asked, trying to deflect her question.

"Well, I came to see my little brother, since I haven't talked to him lately," Honor said, "I wanted to see what was new in your life, since you came back from Europe and started school. And apparently, what's new in your life is that you have a wife!" She said with disbelief written all over her face. She had her back to the door and didn't notice Rory standing in the doorway, with a look of shock on her face, as she finished her sentence.

"Uh...Logan?" Rory asked, her voice cracking a little.

Honor whipped her head around and looked at the pretty brunette, with bright blue eyes standing in the doorway of her brothers dorm room. What really shocked her was when Logan walked over to her and gave her a kiss, she noticed the dual looks of love pouring out of their eyes.

"Ace, this is my sister Honor. Honor, this is my wife, Rory," Logan sighed and looked at Rory who had a horrified look on her face, "Let's all sit down and we can explain, okay?"

Rory managed a very small smile and sat down on the couch, "Okay, explain how she knows we are married." Rory said and Logan sat next to her.

"I was sitting here reading the paper when there was a knock on the door, thinking it was you, I loudly stated that since you were my wife you shouldn't have to knock anymore, but instead of you it was Honor." Logan explained leaning back into the couch.

"Okay, you two, I think it's about time to let me in on the whole marriage thing. Are you seriously married?" Honor asked, still not believing that her brother, the playboy, was married.

"Yes, Honor, we are married," they both pulled their rings out from underneath their shirts, "Remember when I was in Europe this summer?" Logan asked Honor, at her nod he continued, "I met Rory in Italy at the beginning of the summer, I approached her and we started talking, things just clicked. We got to know each other, without the pressure of our last names, I followed her through Europe, the last stop was Paris, we were walking around, stopped in front of this old chapel, I just blurted out, 'Marry me', told her I loved her, she said she loved me, and we got married." Logan said, kissing Rory on the temple.

"Wow, I can't believe you suggested to get married," Honor said, shocked and proud of her baby brother growing up, "Wait, what did you mean by, 'without the pressure' of your last names?" Honor asked.

"Okay, no one really knows this, besides Logan and my family," Rory said, looking from Logan to Honor, "So if we tell you, you can't say anything, at least not now."

"Okay, I won't say anything." Honor agreed.

"My full name is Lorelai Leigh Gilmore-Hayden, otherwise known as Rory Gilmore." Rory told Honor.

"Holy shit! Are you serious? You're the Hayden heiress?" Honor exclaimed, knowing that the identity of the Hayden heiress is the best kept secret in society.

"Yeah, that's me," Rory said shyly, "Like I said, no one knows, besides Logan and my family. I wasn't raised in society and my parents never married, so I always went by Rory Gilmore." Rory explained to Honor, who still had a shocked look on her face.

"Wow, this is just so shocking. First, I find out that my baby brother got married, then I find out he married the most sought after heiress ever. I still can't believe this." Honor told them.

"Most people in society, just see me as the scandal. No one knows that I am close to my father and my Hayden grandparents. They just saw that my parents were never married and that my father's name was never released. They probably all think that my mom got knocked up by the pool-boy or something." Rory said with a chuckle.

"Okay, I can understand keeping the Hayden thing a secret, but why keep the marriage thing a secret. It's obvious that you both love each other." Honor said, trying to grasp what she was being told.

"We do love each other very much, but there are people out there, that would see us getting married after only two months and start in with the pregnancy rumors or whatever, plus, we just wanted to keep it to ourselves for a while." Logan explained to his older sister.

"Yeah, and we still want to keep it a secret for the most part. We plan on telling people that we are dating soon, and we both know that it's inevitable that people are going to find out that we are married, but we aren't just going to tell them outright," Rory said, looking over at Honor, "So, now that you know, can you help us keep this secret for a while longer?" Rory asked, hoping that Honor would be on board with them.

"Of course, I will help you out," Honor said with a smile on her face, "Congrats, little brother, I am happy for you. I am glad you found someone you wanted to spend the rest of your life with." Honor gushed as she stood up to give Logan a hug.

"Thanks Honor. It means a lot to me that you are happy for me. I know that some people won't be happy." Logan said with a sigh.

"I will be here, to help you both along the way, if you happen to run into any obstacles." Honor said as she pulled Rory into a hug as well.

"Thanks Honor." Rory said with a huge grin on her face, she looked over at Logan and noticed that he was smiling as well.

They spent the rest of the afternoon, visiting with Honor. It felt good to both of them to finally be able to have someone to talk to about the whole story, instead of just them dating, like what they had told Paris. Honor told them that whenever they wanted to tell the elder Huntzberger's to let her know and she would be there for moral support. They told her that it would probably be a while before they let their families in on the whole marriage thing, but that they would probably come out soon, telling people that they were dating.

Honor was still floating on the happiness she had for her brother, she couldn't believe that he had gotten married, especially after only knowing Rory for 2 months, but that he was the one to suggest it, spoke volumes about how much he had changed from just a few months ago. She was proud of her baby brother, for finally stepping up to be the person she always knew he could be. She talked to them for a while, before she noticed the time. She gave them each a hug and told Rory to call her sometime so they could go shopping. She told Logan to call her so they could have lunch and catch up sometime soon. With that she turned and walked out of Logan's room.

Rory and Logan both let out a sigh of relief as soon as the door to his room closed. They were both happy at the fact that Honor was behind them and that that conversation went a lot smoother than they had imagined.

The day after meeting Honor, Rory was in the newsroom, when she was approached by Doyle, "Gilmore, how's the story coming? On that secret society."

"The Life and Death Brigade. Get this. I've got a contact." Rory said, proud that she had something to tell Doyle.

"Inside?" Doyle asked, shocked that she even had something on this elusive club.

"Deep inside." Rory said, thinking about how dirty that statement was, she had to remind herself to tell her mom and Logan about it.

"Who?" Doyle asked, hoping that she would tell him.

"Anonymous. Don't ask again." Rory snapped, annoyed that he would even ask her that.

"Your call." Doyle said, trying to blow it off as not important.

"I'm going to tell this story from the inside." Rory told him.

"You'll be careful?" Doyle asked.

Rory a little taken aback at the question, "Careful enough."

"Well, stay on it." Doyle said.

"You bet, Chief." Rory said, as Doyle walked away.

Later that evening, Rory was back in her dorm when she noticed an envelope taped to the outside of her window. She opened it and pulled out a blindfold and a note, "Be ready in the courtyard, by Branford, at 4pm tomorrow. Blindfolded. The LDB." She smiled to herself, she couldn't wait to see what the event was and what was going to happen. She kept contemplating these things as she got ready for bed, it wasn't much longer, before she heard Logan enter her room and crawl into bed with her. They both fell asleep thinking about the upcoming weekend.

AN: Okay, I know I said I was going to put the LDB event in this chapter, but decided not to. The next chapter for sure though. Read and Review.
