Interlude Part Two

"So am I suppose to consider this our first date?" Rory smiles as she looks up from the golf ball she was just going to swing at.

"If anyone else asks yes, but if your speaking in terms of anniversary no." She lets a smile creep onto her face when he just nods his head.

"Good to know." She turns her attention back to her ball and takes a swing, it's not a whole in one but it's not the worst thing ever. She looks back towards the club and wonders if her grandparents and Logan's parents have just decided to not even go through with their lie and going back for Mitchum's golf clubs and coming back to catch up with them.

"So Logan how do you approve of the young lady your parents have just set you up with?" She flutters her eyelashes and plays the part of a demure debutante.

"I can't deny they have good taste." After one more hole they give up the pretense of continuing to play golf and instead begin to walk the grounds. It's then that she feels his hands entwine with hers without him stopping the conversation, and she can't help but admit that it feels good. Intimate as if simply by their palms touching and their fingers twisting together they know so much more of each other. It's an odd feeling, sure she's held hands with boys before and even with Jess when they had held hands she had always felt comforted but never anything like this.

"So while I'm at Yale and your running your fathers business plus becoming the most eligible bachelor in high society, tell me how much ass do you think you're going to get?" She tries to say it jokingly but really she just wants to know if she should even think about things such as anniversaries without it being a total joke.

"Depends how much are you going to give me." It's crude to talk about it like this but really what other way was she supposed to put it? Are you going to stay with me? Am I the only girl you want? Sure with Logan it was becoming easier almost natural to discuss her emotions and what she really wanted without playing the games she had in the beginning, but she was still a Hayden-Gilmore and the defenses she had built her whole life would take some time to break down.

"Good answer." She pulls him closer, Would it be too soon to kiss him? she figures it's ok, they're under a tree that offers some coverage and even if they are seen their parents did set them up. So she leans into him and he obliges her with a kiss, at first it's soft and slow, they're outside, just out in the open and it's odd not to feel a twinge of danger about doing this outside where anyone can see.

"I can get used to this." She hums her agreement before allowing herself to rest against him for a moment. The sun's hitting her bare legs and though it's a hot day she can't help but want to be as close to him as possible for as long as she can.

"You and Logan looked comfortable." Her grandmother acts nonchalant as she continues to fiddle with her tea, but she can see the curiosity eating at her.

"I suppose we did." She sips her ice tea and wonders if Logan is getting the same inquisition from his father, probably is.

"Shira simply cannot stop gushing about you two." Rory had to stop herself from rolling her eyes, it's no surprise Shira and her Grandmother were probably already planning their wedding.

"You do know I have to go back to school next week." She really reminding both of them because despite this odd twilight zone they stepped into at Hartford she still knows when she goes back to school she will have to deal with Jess quietly for the good of all.

"I have complete faith in you, I'm sure you won't let that become and obstacle between you two in fact I'm sure it can only be beneficial for that to occur."

"How does my mother feel about this?" She asks because her mother opted out of today's get together and wonders if she just didn't want to spend time with her grandparents or if it was Logan that was bothering her though that would seem very odd.

"I haven't told her as of yet but I'm sure she wont be a hindrance." Rory was sure too, her mother was always one for forbidden romances. Before the conversation could continue Shira was heading her way back to the table from the powder room.

Packing wasn't as bad as it was when she left school, since there was only a little over a month left before graduation she just saw it as practical to already leave some stuff at her parents house.

"Honey I can't wait until your graduation I do hope the tailor is able to hem your dress properly." Her mother stated as she helped Rory adjust her shoes in her suitcase, they had gone dress shopping and had found her the perfect graduation dress the only issue was it was two inches too long.

"I'm sure he can Clarence has yet too fail me."

"I'll be sure to mail it to you the moment it arrives here just in case."

"So your grandmother said Logan Huntzberger is going to be traveling with you back to your school, he's an assistant teacher right?"

"Yes his mother and grandmother set it up."

"Right well I hope I don't have to remind you to be… aware of your surroundings at school. School headmasters are always a bit strong minded when it comes to certain indiscretions." Lorelai gave her a warning look, the last thing the family needed was a scandal when they were working towards a power couple.

"Logan's been an excellent teacher, very much a role model for the boys at school I'm sure nothing will change." She knows this has to look like her family's doing in order for it to be viewed as ok within society, has to play by their rules to achieve her goal.

"And when you come back to Hartford you two can do as you please but just be discrete on school grounds." She really didn't think it would be this easy to have Logan and keep her family happy but she should have known that a Huntzberger was a great catch and if there was anything her family wanted for her more than a ivy league education was a very influential husband.
