CHAPTER SIXTEEN

RORY

It was a crazy idea. I wasn't sure why I had even thought of it in the first place. I was just nervous. I saw Mom and Finn's car following us. I looked over to Logan.

"We should call my Grandparents, they will be hurt."

"They're not going to find out at all. We'll still have the big wedding their planning." We were on our way to elope. "Plus, you're the one that said not to tell them, they'd just talk us out of it."

"I'm just nervous."

"Don't be. This was your idea, remember?"

FLASHBACK

I hung up the phone after a long conversation with my Grandmother. That was the 5th time she called me today to check on things like china patterns, centerpieces and bridesmaid dresses. I always needed a nap after talking to her. It was really wearing me out planning this wedding, especially since Logan and I wanted a smaller one, but oh no, Grandma wouldn't hear of that. She wanted me to have to big wedding that she wanted for Mom, even if I was pregnant. I lowered myself onto the couch Logan pulled my feet onto his lap and rubbed them. I purred in appreciation.

"She's a leach! She is going to suck until nothing is left. I'll be a pile of nothing by the time of the wedding, if we ever get there."

"Tell her that this is too much, that you're 8 months pregnant and a lot more tired than you used to be." I wondered if we would even make it to the wedding.

"Nonsense." I did my best Emily imitation. I was really worried about getting married and for what seemed like no reason at all, I was worried about Logan leaving. I loved him so much, and just couldn't handle losing him again and having to raise the new baby by myself.

"Let's elope." I suggested. I wasn't sure where that came from.

"What." Logan questioned. My idea was perfect.

"Let's elope! We can drive down and get married tomorrow. Especially since I'm already on maternity leave."

"What about the big wedding?" He always had to be logical when I didn't want to be.

"We can still have that, but that one will be for my Grandparents, this one will be for us." He stared at me, obviously thinking about it.

"Let's do it." I squealed and kissed him. "Call your Mom, I'll call Colin and Finn." I went quickly to the phone.

END

LOGAN

We pulled in front of the small chapel and I helped Rory out of the car. Our friends joined us a minute later.

"Ready for this?" Lorelai asked Rory, who took my hand.

"In omnia paratus." She told me before we walked into the chapel Rory Gilmore and Logan Huntzberger and coming out Mr. And Mrs. Huntzberger an hour later. I was in ecstasy. We finally did it. We got married. I suggested we all go out to dinner after, we all sat around the table, laughing and smiling.

"To Rory and Logan, hope all the children have Logan's charm and Rory's good looks." Finn toasted; at least someone toasted. I was happy to be here, celebrating with my friends, family and my wife.
