Chapter Thirty Five
Rory looked at the two boys skeptically. "What kind of challenge?"
Finn smirked. "Well Doll, if we told you that we'd have to kill you."
Rory smiled. "Oh so it's official LDB business. Ok, I'll leave you to it. I'll just go back to bed." She said walking towards Logan's room. She stopped when she got to the door and turned around. "When you decide you want to join me Logan…" she started seductively only to be interrupted
"Your lady seems to be propositioning you Huntzberger." Finn said
"That she does Finn. Is that what you were going for Ace?" Logan asked cockily
"Well… yes." Rory said confidently
Logan smiled and hopped up. "See you later Finn." He said following Rory into the room
"But what about the challenge?" Finn asked only to be answered with a slammed door. Finn smiled. "Lucky bastard. I do believe I'll go find Rosemary." He said to himself while walking out of the dorm to avoid listening to Rory and Logan.

Rory was lying in Logan's arms wrapped in a comfortable embrace when her cell rang. She sighed and moved to answer it but Logan pulled her back down onto the bed. "Ignore it."
Rory smiled sweetly. "I can't. It could be my mom."
"I thought you and your mom weren't talking." Logan said confused
"We aren't, which means that she won't call unless it's something important. At least let me check the caller id."
Logan groaned but then smiled lovingly at her. "Go."
Rory moved off the bed and reached for her phone. She smiled when she saw Lane's number on the caller id and answered it. "Hello."
"Hey! I said check the caller id not answer the phone!" Logan said jokingly
"Hush you." Rory said to Logan before turning her attention back to Lane. "So what's up Lane?"
"It's not even your mother Ace…" Logan groaned
"I said hush you." Rory said ignoring him.
"So the whole town is a buzz with talk about you this morning." Lane said
"Why is that?"
"Well it seems that a few nights ago not one but two rich Yale boys showed up in Stars Hollow…"
"Yeah but that was a few days ago why are they just now talking about it?" Rory said confused"I think Lorelai threatened them all or something, or convinced Babette not to say anything to Ms. Patty for a few days in case you had to come back. She didn't want you ambushed so soon after the "incident". However since no one other than me and Luke and Lorelai actually know what happened there are speculations all over the town."
"Like what?" "Kirk suggested you were pregnant…" "I AM NOT PREGNANT!" Rory said loudly"WHAT!" Logan exclaimed
"The town thinks I'm pregnant." She said to him
"Why in the hell would your town think you are pregnant?"
"I don't know…" she said… "Lane why does Kirk think I'm pregnant?"
"How should I know? It's Kirk. So after he said that Taylor asked which one of the Yale boys got you pregnant."
"Yeah cause all of a sudden I'm the campus whore." Rory interrupted
"Who else are you sleeping with Ace?"
"Apparently Finn…"
"Don't forget Robert." Lane chimed in
"I didn't sleep with Robert."
"I hope not. I really don't need another reason to want his ass dead." Logan muttered
"I didn't sleep with Robert Logan. I barely even kissed him." Rory said calmly "What else Lane?"
"Ok then there's the rumor that you're engaged and that you were having an affair."
"I'm sure Lindsey and Dean back that one." Rory said sadly walking back over to the bed and sitting down next to Logan.
"You ok Ace?" Logan asked concerned
"I'm fine. What else is going on Lane?"

An hour later Rory had hung up with Lane and was now laying peacefully in Logan's arms again although her demeanor had changed and it was obvious that she was upset. "The whole town thinks I am trash Logan." She said softly
Logan tightened his grip around her. "I'm sure they don't Ace."
"They think I had an affair or that I'm pregnant and don't know who the father is. Oh and my favorite rumor that I'm knocked up having an affair and dropping out of Yale. It combines all the rumors into one."
"It's just small town gossip Ace. It'll die down and then it will be over. Don't let it stress you out."
Rory nodded. "You're right Logan. This will all blow over, I just hope that it will before this weekend."
"Why what's this weekend?" Logan asked curiously
Rory smiled coyly. "I'm dragging you to Stars Hollow with me. It's time to introduce you to the town."
"Ace…" Logan groaned
"Come on Logan, please." Rory said making her bambi eyes
"Fine Ace. We'll go to Stars Hollow this weekend. And I know just how I'm going to introduce myself to them all."
"And how is that?" Rory asked confused
"I was thinking I could be your baby's daddy and the fiance that you're cheating on." Logan said jokingly
Rory rolled her eyes. "Not funny. How about we stick to Hey this is my boyfriend Logan."
"Sounds dull, but ok." Logan said
AN: Sorry so short.. I still have somewhat of a major case of writers block. I know how I want to end the story I'm just not ready to do so and I can't figure out how to get there yet.
