Logan

I made a meeting with my Dad, trying to resolve this situation without going to court. I couldn't do that to Rory, make her prove that she was a good Mother for Cameron. I pulled in front of my Dad's house where the meeting was and stopped the car. He was not just going to drop this for nothing, I knew that much. I knocked on the door and waited a moment before the maid answered, the meant business today. Usually Mom would answer the door. She led me to the room where my parents were waiting for me.

"Nice of you to show up Logan." Dad said, looking me straight in the eye. He was trying to intimidate me. It might of worked on me when I was younger, but it wasn't now.

"Sorry Dad, I was out looking for a job, I'm thinking construction, what do you think?" I teased, sitting down.

"This is no time for jokes." Mom wouldn't even look at me.

"Fine. Let's get this over with." I said before going on to explain my side. "I don't want to go to court over this. Cameron belongs with Rory and I."

"It's necessary." He replied quickly. I couldn't believe I was related to these people, who cared about no one but themselves, these Robber Barrons.

"For what?" I was apalled by their heartlessness but I knew they had the power and the money to take Cameron away from us, even if they couldn't prove us unfit parents.

"This is your heir Logan. Times are changing. There are more and more female heirs taking over businesses and I want to make sure yours is raised right."

"Who said I am talking over your compant? I told you quit Dad."

"It's your birthright."

"I don't care abot my damn birthright Dad. Your trying to take my daughter away from her Mother, so I think it's safe to say to hell with my birthright."

"I'm looking after both of our interest when I say let's make a deal."

"What kind of deal?" I asked skeptically.

Rory

When I had went to pick up Cameron the next day, Colin and Finn told me, much to my suprise, that Logan had already picked her up and was waiting for me. It send chills up my spine, thinking about him. I found the door unlocked when I got home. I had given Logan a key when he had come home early and was locked out, just listen to me, Logan didn't live with me and Cmaeron. I put down my purse and stopped in my tracks at the site of my livingroom. It was dim, rose petals were everywhere. What was he up to?

"Where's Cameron?" I asked, wlaking to where he was sitting on the couch.

"Spending the night at Jenna's down the hall." He pulled me on top of him.

"What's all this?" I asked, still confused.

"I thought you would have figured it out by now."

"Yeah well..."

"We're celebrating." Logan cleared it up for me, at least he tried.

"Celebrating? Celebrating what?"

"My parents dropped the lawsuit." He stated and I threw my arms around him.

"How?" I asked, they seemed dead set in their decision, not that I was complaining.

"I'll give you the details tomorrow, ok?" He kissed me and we stood up. He twirled me around and I laughed from pure joy. We walked into my room and I had to keep from giggling and totally ruining the moment. This had been my daydream all day, from the dropping of the lawsuit to just being here with Logan, being with him peroid, mentally, physically, intimatly. He kissed me and it was lucky his hands were around my waist because my knees buckled. I pulled us onto my bed and he started to unbuckle my belt while nearly laying on top of me. I helped him and let him pull my shirt over my head. He was smiling, oh how I loved that smile. I loved everything about him, our banter back and forth, the way look looked at me, the way he touched me. I moaned as he touched me where I needed to be touched. The furthur we got the more clothes we would rip off of eachother, until we were both completely named. I was close and I needed him inside me, I voiced that need, suddenly couragious with him in my bed. He entered me quickly and made a tiger like sound, which in any other situation I would laugh at. We rode together, enjoying our being one until we both climaxed and laid next to eachother. His hands instantly went around me. I smiled and felt my eyelids grow heavy as he ran his hand over my hair, down my shoulder, tracing the curve of my waist and resting on my theigh.

Logan

I woke up early the next morning, I loved the feel of Rory's soft skin against mine. There was nothing in the entire world like waking up in Rory Gilmore arms. I felt her stir, even in college I would wake but right before she did. She turned to face me.

"What time is it? She asked me, voice still sleep ritten.

"Around 6:45." It was a tough choice.

"Have to get up, drink coffee, get Cameron, work."

"It could wait a couple of minutes."

"No it can't, I have to be at work by 8."

"Do you really want to get out of this very warm bed where a sexy naked man is occupying?" I teased her and I moced the hair out of her face.

"You think very highly of yourself."

"I think i'm allowed to, since I do have a sexy a sexy naked woman in my arms." She blushed, realizing her nakedness.

"What? didn't know you were naked? I could refresh your memory why if you want." She ignored me and got out of bed.

"I have to take a shower and go to work, can you go and get Cameron from Jenna's?"

I laid on my bed. "Sure, i'll make coffee on my way out."

"Thank you." She left the room to take a shower, I got dressed and left to pick up Cameron. We sat on the couch, each of us sipping coffee. I still didn't like my daughter drinking coffee at 6 years old, but there was nothing I could do about it. Rory came out of the bathroom 20 minutes later, and set next to me.

"Cameron, why don't you go and get ready. Don't forget your coat, it's cold outside."

"Ok Mommy." She got up and hurried out of the room. Rory put her feet over my lap.

"No, you didn't." I said, placing my hand on her knee.

"Good morning." She said and I leaned in to kiss her.

"Yes is it." I kissed her again.

"I'm ready!" Cameron came running in, interupting us. We pulled apart quickly, like Cameron was the parent and we were the guilty teenagers. "You guys were kissing again, huh?" She asked and I wanted to laugh.

"Come on detective. Time to go." We got off the couch and walked out of the apartment. I called a cab for them.

"Can I take you out to lunch today?" I asked.

"Maybe if I had gotten to work on time." She said, looking at her watch. They were already late.

"How about I bring lunch to you?" I offered.

"I guess I could take a break around 1."

"I'll be there." I kissed her and bent down to Cameron. "Give me a hug." I told her and she hugged me tightly. "I'll see you later." I opened the door to the cab and drove to my apartment. I had a few hours to kill and had to figure out how to tell Rory what I had to do to get my Dad to drop the lawsuit. That I had to take over for him as C.E.O. of the Huntzberger Publishing Group and she was not going to like it, hell, I didn't like it. I knew exactly what it meant, that I was going to travel a lot and miss a lot of Cameron growing up, and not being able to see Rory as much. I had a feeling this was his plan from the start, to take me away from my family. He didn't care that I loved Rory or if Cameron was raised as a socialite or not, she was nothing to him. All he wanted was to make sure that I took over the business, because I was born to.

I had to make sure I didn't lose Rory this time, I had to make sure I had her and Cameron to come back to this time. I waited until 12 and went to get food from this Indian Cusine place I know Rory loves and drove to her work. The place was swarming with people. I went and tried to find Rory's office, about 10 minutes later I gave up and found someone to ask. She pointed out the door and I felt l kind of stupid for not seeing 'Rory Gilmore' in big gold letters. I opened it and Rory was on the phone, she held up her finger signaling one minute.

"This is Rory Gilmore, i'm the editor of the NewYorker and I'm calling to inquire an interview. Call me back as soon as possible. The number here is 555-5931 extention 520. Thank you, I am looking forword to wrking with you in the near future. Goodbye." She hung up as I was looking at the pictures on her desk, one of her Mom and her when she was a teenager, one with Colin, Finn and Cameron with bright purple hair and the one that caught my eye, Rory holding a newborn Cameron in her arms, laying in a hospital bed. I picked it up and studied it closer.

"That was the day after Cameron was born. She was 2 weeks early and I wasn't half way prepared. Colin and Finn were running around like chickens with their heads cut off." She laughed and I put the picture down smiling. I would have paid good money to see that. "So what did you bring?" She asked me.

"Indian food." I put the bag on her desk. She started to unpack it.

"I should of guessed from the smell." She responded, opening the boxes and smelling it's contents.

"Yeah, now all I have to do is burn my clothes when I get home." I sat down and we started to eat.

"When was Cameron's hair purple?" I asked, pointing to the picture.

"Finn did it one night when I was working late. It was for her 4th birthday and he failed to ask me first. It took forever to wash out."

"So considerate of Finn." I said, taking a bite of my food.

"Cameron is in love with Finn. She once told me that she was going to marry him." I almost choked hearing that. "Relax, a week later she wanted to marry Jesse on Full House."

"She has a thing for bad boys." I pointed out.

"She did, but a week after that it was Brandon on Summerland."

"Who is it right now?" I was curious.

"Right now it's Billy Joe from Green Day."

"She's growing up fast." I said before I realized that I was stalling telling her about my Dad.

"I told you I meet with my Dad yesterday"

"Yeah, and he dropped the lawsuit." She was beaming. "How'd that happen?" She asked.

"I made a deal with him." I stated.

"What kind of deal?" She mimicked my words to my Dad.

"That he would drop the lawsuit if I take over the business." I spit out and watched her smile fade.

"You agreed to that?" She was shocked, I could tell.

"It was the only way to keep him from going to court."

"We could have fought him Logan. You played right into his hand!" She exclaimed, getting obviously upset.

"We would have lost Rory. It doesen't matter that we are good parents. They have pull with the courts." I knew she realized I was right.

"What now?" She said, practilly whispering.

"I'm going to have to travel, building new papers, alot of meetings."

"Become your Dad?" She questioned.

"No. Work is my Dad's life, not mine."

"Your just not going to be around as much."

"I'll still be here, but it's important that you don't give up on us." I told her. I need her in my life.

"I won't. I promise." She told me and I took her hand from across the table, that's the best thing I had heard all day.
