Rory shivered as she opened the door to the dark apartment; she switched on the light and tossed her keys onto the small table by the door. It was getting colder and it was expected to snow soon. She slipped of her shoes as she closed the door and set her purse down still holding her maid of honor dress. All this wedding planning was strting to wear her down.
She walked into the chrome kitchen, laid her dress on a chair and impulsively began to make coffee. She carried her mug into the cream colored living room and sank into the couch. She grabbed the remote and began to flip channels.
This is the ways she had been spending her time lately since school ended, if she wasn't here by herself she was at the apartment enduring a long interrogation by Paris on since she was engaged why Doyle proposed to her yet, or enduring parties or wedding preperation talks.She flipped off the TV and thought about calling Logan but decided that she didn't want to bother him.
She looked around the furnished apartment, decorated in pottery barn-ish colors, all brown white and black. The cream colored carpets, the off white walls, and oak tables, not a total contrast of her other white room, still a bit lonely, but had a little warmer feel. She got up and walked to the bathroom and took a shower.
After she put on her sweats and crawled into their big bed, she huddled under the dark blue sheets and closed her eyes.
Friday:
Luke and loralai stood at the front of the empty church, reverend skinner was finishing reviewing what the plans for the ceremony tomorrow. Rory stood next to sookie as her made of honor, and Richard and Emily and Logan sat in the front row. The dinner would soon follow after. She looked behind her at Logan and smiled, soon they would be their rehearsal. Out of the corner of her eye she saw someone walk in and sit down. She quickly looked back to her mom and Luke. She carefully snuck another peek and saw them again get up and stand by the door; she squinted down the isle to get a better look. "Rory" loralai called, "Rory, are you there? do you need a road flare? a whistle?Follow the bread crumbs!"
"What?"
"ah she has returned" she hugged her dramaticallythen looked down the isle too "What are you looking at?"
"I think someone was sitting over there then got up and left?" she pointed to the last row.
"Really…..was it a stripper?"
"No"
"Damn it's never a stripper, oh well I don't see anyone."
"But..." she looked again at the empty doorway "never mind"
"Come on, it's my last night as an unmarried woman, we have to go and party like its 1999, or some other year that's worth partying for."
"I'm coming" she walked up to Logan as he was getting up
"I'm gonna go inside and get us a drink alright"
"Alright I just have to go get my coat" she put on her jacket, grabbed her purse and a she walked through the door to the inn she ran into someone. "Oh excuse me I'm sorry…." She trailed off when she saw who she was standing face to face with.
"Hey" jess said quietly. He looked at her, she was just as beautiful as he last saw her.
"Hey." Her words caught in her throat, "um uh what are you doing here?" she looked around nervously.
"Uh, Luke invited me."
"Oh, ok. Uh when you did…..uh…where did you….." she stammered, if shehadn't been looking around so much she wouldn't have noticed jess practically staring at her left hand.
"I actually just moved back."
"Alright….Well I'm glad to see your do ok." She forced herself to look at his face, the same look he always had, the look he gave when he tried his hardest not to show what he was feeling.
"I was just leaving."
"Oh…Don't you wanna come inside for the party?"
"Um….are you going too?"
"Yeah I am."
"Ok" He shrugged and they both awkwardly walked toward the inn after a few seconds he asked. "So their finally getting married"
"Yeah I know it's nice."
"It took long enough. And you?"
"Oh I'm great, I just graduated and I'm really happy" she answered still not looking at each other.
They walked quietly, still looking at her hand with a side-glance, when they walked into the room where the party was he asked "so what's his name?" She stopped, her chest got tight she looked at him her face confused and a bit guilty. "Luke told me." He pointed to her hand. "So what's his name?"
"Um Logan" She said looking at her ring.
"Logan….."
"Huntzburger" knew it was a rich guy, she was about to say something else, when Logan came behind her with two glasses of champagne.
"Hey ace, been looking for ya" he looked up and acknowledged jess. "Who's this?"
"Oh uh…Logan this is…uh, jess, jess this is Logan." The words felt almost painful to say.
"charmed." Jess greeted sarcastically. There was a long silence; the tension was almost visible, as the three of them just stood there. Jess looked him over, everything about him bugged him, his clothes, his looks, his attitude and the fact that this was the guy who gave her the ring this was going to marry Rory. He felt that if he didn't get away from this guy that he was going to do something stupid. "Look I gotta go, I have a thing tomorrow that I gotta do so, nice to see you both." He turned around and walked out, half way down the path Rory caught up with him.
"Hey were you going?"
"Home" he said simply and kept walking, but she just kept following him.
"I know that was a little weird back there but don't leave because of me."
"I'm not like I said I have a thing." They both looked at the ground "so…. Logan, he seems…nice"
"He is" she looked at her hands, she looked at him and caught her looking at her hand, her ring, "so are you coming to the wedding?" changing the subject. He looked at her, and thought the question over.
"Are you gonna be there?"
"Yeah I am."
"i don't know" he began to walk away but he breifly stopped and looked over his shoulder " Like I said I have to go to a thing tomorrow." Rory hugged herself as she watched him walk away,
