Chapter Eight

Rory waited until they were back at her house to grill him on Lindsay. In fact, she was nothing but charming and unassuming the entire ride home. They joked about Finn's drunkenness and his parent's stuffiness, but both could tell that it was coming. And it did.

"Spill," Rory said, her and Logan sitting on her couch. He groaned, leaning his head against the soft cushion of the couch.

"Rory, it's nothing,"

"Well, then if it's nothing then you should have no problem telling me,"

"She's just overambitious,"

"Overambitious? That doesn't even make sense,"

"It makes perfect sense, she wants a Huntzberger,"

"Why? They're really nothing special," She teased with feigned seriousness. Logan ignored it though.

"Her sister is engaged to a Carnegie and she wants something nice and shiny too,"

"And you are nice and shiny?"

"My name is," he stopped, seeming to be about to say something that he didn't want to, "And we kind of had a thing,"

"A thing?" Rory repeated, knowing what was about to come. They had dated. It had to be that.

"Well, she was my first," Well, that was surprising.

"So, you two dated?"

"No, she was just my first,"

"How is she your first if you two weren't dating," Rory asked, avoiding the obvious, "I mean, your first time couldn't have just been random sex,"

"Well, it wasn't exactly random. She's a year older than me and offered to, well, you know,"

"Your first time was pity sex," Rory gaped, surprised.

"It was not pity sex," Logan countered.

"She took pity on you by being your first. I bet she was experienced, right?"

"Uh, yeah,"

"So, she saved you from an awkward experience," Logan nodded slowly, a bit uncomfortable but agreeing.

"I guess,"

"Trust me, the first time is usually awkward. Mine was awful," He looked at her, his attention now fully caught.

"What?" She giggled, hitting his arm.

"Just kidding, I wanted to make sure you were listening. Anyway, so that's it? She was your first,"

"And nothing more,"

"Good," she said, moving herself comfortably into his arms, "because if she was anything else, I think I'd have to beat her up,"

"Ace, you couldn't hurt a fly," She grinned against his chest, burrowing her head even closer to him. He smelled familiar, like burning wood chips. It was an odd scent, but one that fit him.

"Well, I'll send my mom after her if she tries anything," Logan laughed, the rumbling in his chest gently buzzing under head.

"She'd better watch out. I think your mom would win in any girl fight,"

"Oh, she always does," Logan looked at his watch briefly, sighing at the time.

"Ace, I have to go,"

"No," she protested, tightening her grip on him.

"My parents will send a search party soon,"

"I thought your parents were too aloof for that," He grinned, gently brushing her hair away from her face. She looked tired, it had been a long day.

"Usually, but tonight is a social gathering. We are supposed to look like the perfect family. You can't look like a perfect family when you're missing the son,"

"I see, well," she paused, pressing her lips to his, "drive safe. Don't hit any deer. I have, and it is absolutely terrifying," Laughing, he gently pushed her away, standing up.

"I'll see you later Ace,"

Lane carefully looked down the stairs, searching for any sign of her mother. She was sneaking out to see Dave. Although her mother liked Dave, she would probably not like her daughter going to see him when it did not involve inquiring about whether or not his "Christian band" could play at the next Kim gathering or if he needed a new bible (The Kims always had several on hand). No, her mother would not approve of her and Dave together, so she met with him secretly. Once she was positive her mother was not in sight, she moved down the stairs. Just as she reached the door, so had her mother from the other side.

"Oh, Lane, where are you going?"

"Oh, no where, I was just, uh, checking the mail,"

"I just did," Mrs. Kim said, breezing past her, "nothing good. Lots of flyers,"

"Yes," Mrs. Kim turned, holding up a bright yellow one.

"Look at this, promoting the devil,"

"Mama, it's for Taylor's Ice Cream Shoppe,"

"So that the devil can rot all the children's teeth. You must always be aware of these things Lane. The devil is sneaky-"

"Yes, Mama, I know. I'm going to go to Rory's house. She...she needs a new bible," Mrs. Kim nodded, lips pressed into a proud smile.

"It would do that girl some good. Especially, with that mother of hers," Lane nodded and turned, but her mom was not done, "But first, I need to talk to you,"

"What about?" Lane grimaced, turning around.

"There is a boy from Korea coming tomorrow. His name is SuChin, you will like him,"

"Okay,"

"You will go on the Hayride together," Oh no. The hayride was like a death omen. It mean one thing, and one thing only, her mother was attempting a set up.

"Oh, Mom, I don't think-"

"I will get your bible for you. I will get the one that I have underlined in, it will do her much good,"

"Um, okay," But her words were unheard by Mrs. Kim, who had already strode up the stairs to get the bible for Rory. It didn't matter though. Her mother never listened, not when it came to what she really wanted. And SuChin was the last thing she wanted. Once armed with the bible, she headed out, meeting Dave at Luke's. They sat in the back, just in case her mother decided to walk around town.

"Lane, what took you so long. I was worried," Lane frowned, shaking her head.

"It is a very long story, but to put it simply, my mother is setting me up with a real live Korean,"

"Because the other ones are fake and dead?" He joked.

"No, Dave, you don't understand. She is having us go on a hayride. A hayride is like an engagement,"

"Lane, it's just a hayride. Unless they put a burlap sack over your head during it and take you to a chapel, I think you will be fine,"

"Sure, but don't complain when I come back with a new Korean boy friend. I will have no other choice,"

"Well, as long as he lets you share the remote," Lane smiled, remembering their conversation from the day before.

"Do you still want to let me share the remote?" Lane asked with a cheeky grin.

"Yes, as long as your fingers aren't sticky," Lane held up her hands, and shrugged.

"They seem clean enough," Dave took them in his own, kissing them sweetly. Luke came to take their order, wincing at their intimate moment.

"Take it down a notch, guys," Luke said, taking out his pad of paper and pen.

"Luke, don't worry. In a week's time I'll be engaged to a Korean and a handshake will be our most personal interaction," Luke nodded, the glazed over look of his eyes telling her that he wasn't listening, "And I'll have a cheeseburger,"

"Me too,"

"Alright," Luke said, ripping their order out, "Two cheeseburgers,"

"Rory, I am extremely happy," Lorelai told her daughter, bouncing up and down, "Do you want to know why?"

"You're going to tell me anyway," Rory said with a grin.

"You're right, daughter. Next week, is the week of the re-enactors," Rory shook her head, walking to the refrigerator to get the pint of ice cream. Lorelai followed her, still bouncing, "Why are you not excited? There are going to be people walking around town dressed as pilgrims next week. That is something to be excited about!"

"Because, it's the same thing every year. They re-enact, and you mock, what's so exciting about that?" Lorelai gaped at her, eyes wide.

"Are you serious? Rory, may I remind you that you mock right beside me?" Rory shook her head in protest as she got herself a spoon.

"Oh no, that is not true. I stand next to you and shake my head with disapproval,"

"What's there to disapprove of? It's just good, clean fun,"

"Mom, you made a six year old boy cry last year,"

"He had something in his eye,"

"Well, this year I think I will pass on watching you ruin people's childhoods," Lorelai scrunched her nose, sitting next to Rory.

"Yikes, you make me sound like Emily. And what else are you going to do?"

"I'll hang out with Logan," Lorelai's eyes brightened as she got an idea.

"Bring Logan, he loves Stars Hollow,"

"Yes, when it is sane. If you haven't already scared him away, the re-enactors will,"

"Me scaring him away?" Lorelai asked with feigned outrage, "That is not possible,"

"He's not coming,"

"Let him decide," Lorelai offered, innocently taking a spoonful of ice cream, but it was far from innocent. She knew Logan would agree to go. It was re-enactors, hello. Who would say no to that?

"Fine, I'll let him decide. But don't get your hopes up."

"Babe, don't worry. My hopes are never up. It's that way after years of being put down by my parens as being worthless and not amounting to anything," She smiled, "And you'll be coming. I'm sure of it,"

A/N: Okay, there it is. So..you guys can pretty much figure out that the re-enactor thing is going to be next. And yes, Rory and Logan will be going. The next chapter will be up soon, so make sure to look for it. AND PLEASE REVIEW!! Your feedback motivates me to write, hint hint.
