A/N Hey Guys! The update has been kinda slow I know but I had a billion things that I had to do this last month. I hope you like this next chapter! Remember when I had you guys vote to see who you wanted Rory to take for her challenge? Well, you will be finding out soon because of something that I can't tell you lol.

Rory picked up the envelope and stared at it. Curiosity played with her mind and she finally opened it very carefully, making sure nothing ripped. She held her breath as she pulled out the piece of very expensive paper and let it out when she realized that she hadn't made a sound. Her heart started to race as she pulled apart the tape that stuck the 2 halves of the paper together and slowly opened it up. She then started to read.

Hello Miss. Rory Gilmore,

When I was told of your invitation into the LDB and asked to write this note to you, I was both excited and proud. I had been waiting for this moment ever since you were a small child. You are such a wonderful young lady and you have come so very far. I had not always thought that you would go down this road. You're dreams being set for Harvard; I didn't think that you would give Yale a second glance. But to both of our surprise, you did and for that I an eternally grateful. I know that this isn't your kind of thing, being in a secret society that has to be ready for everything, but you did it anyway which shows how much you've grown. You are not the small, timid, little book worm anymore but the confident gracious social lady that I know and love.

But that isn't the reason why I was asked to write to you. I was asked to tell you what your next task is. Well, this task that they are requiring you to accomplish was the same task I did when I was trying to get into the LDB. It was a tad difficult for me because it wasn't something that I did everyday, but I was up for the challenge. You my dear have to go to The Ivoryton Playhouse (103 N Main St) and perform in the play A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare. Remember the fairy costume that the brigadiers gave you on your doorstep? You must wear that costume and let them make you an extra in the play. I know that this might be hard for you since you aren't the prestigious actress that your mother is, but I'm sure that you will do just fine. Just pretend that you are a reporter playing a part to get the scoop on someone. It might make it easier that way.

I love you Rory so very much and I know that you will do fine, so don't stress. Good luck.

In Omni a Paratus,

Richard Gilmore

Rory looked up after finishing the letter with a smile on her face. She loved the letter that her Grandfather had written to her. She had no idea that he knew about this too. She was just about to read the letter again when she heard someone calling her name. It sounded like Logan and Finn.

"Shoot!" She muttered while trying to stuff the letter back into the very small envelope. Rory re-licked it and put it back on the desk where she had found it. She then grabbed her purse and hid under the table just as Logan and Finn came in.

"Logan, why did you drag me in here? Rory's not going to be here." Finn asked, while sitting on the chair by the door.

"I know that, but I have to tell you something." Logan replied while going to sit on the chair next to Finn.

"What is it, Mate?"

Rory adjusted herself so she could hear what Logan was going to say.

"Well, I think that we have to do something about Colin and Stephanie."

"Why can't Rory here that?"

"What?'

"Why can't she hear what you just said about Col and Steph?" Finn repeated.

"I never said that she couldn't here that."

"Then why did you pull me into this bloody room instead of telling me out there?" Finn asked annoyed.

"Cause Colin was close behind us and I didn't want him to hear us talking."

"Oh all right then. I do agree, we need to do something about them, but shouldn't we really be looking for Rory? She should have been down here by now." Finn asked.

Rory looked at the clock on the wall. It was 11:35am. She hadn't realized that she and been in the study for so long. She thought that she had only been in there for like ten minutes. Apparently she hadn't.

"Normally I'd agree with you but this time it serious. Colin called me ten times this morning just to ask me what Stephanie likes for breakfast."

"Why would he ask you that? Doesn't he know Steph really well?"

"Yeah, but apparently when you're stricken with love, you forget everything about the person." Logan said sarcastically.

"Why would he ask you what Steph likes for breakfast, anyway?"

"Because he was planning on making her breakfast in bed this morning."

Rory smiled. That was really cute of Colin to do. She thought.

"Well, that's a step in the right direction, Mate. Maybe he is going to ask her any day now."

"No I don't think so."

"And why not?"

"Because he had the maid bring the food up to her this morning. Not to mention having her tell Steph that you made it for her."

"Why would he do that?" Rory asked herself before gasping. She totally forgot that she was in hiding.

"Rory? What are you doing in here, Love?" Finn asked as he walked up to the desk where she was hiding under.

"Oh Hi Finn, Logan, I didn't see you come in."

"Uh huh Ace, we know you were ESE dropping."

"Well you did say that I could hear."

"I guess I did, but don't turn this on us. What are you doing in here?"

"Well, I was just looking around the mansion this morning and kinda dropped in." She said as Finn helped her up.

"I knew it was only a matter of time until you found this place. I was just hoping that you wouldn't find it until later. You didn't read the letter that was on the desk, did you?

"What letter? You mean that letter?" Rory asked pointing to the one on the desk. "No never. Um I was just looking at the books.

"Rory, you're a really bad liar, you know that?" Logan grinned.

"Well, I guess I'll never be a politician."

"I never could see you as a politician, Ace. Your too sweet and innocent for that. They'd eat you alive."

"You have such a way with words, Logan." Rory said sarcastically.

"Thank you, I try. But now we have something important to sort out."

"You mean Steph and Colin?" Rory asked.

"No I mean you and your nosiness."

"Well it's not my fault that it was labeled to me on the desk of a room that I just happen to be in." Rory said innocently.

"I should have known that you would have found the Gilmore Study."

"Is that what this is?"

"Yeah. This Mansion has a lot of secret rooms and things. This was built for Richard's father since he loved books."

"Wow, that's so cool."

"Yes it is, but we really need to be going. The LDB is waiting and the Champagne is almost out."

"That could really be a problem, love. Come on, let's go do my Challenge!" Finn said enthusiastically.

"Well, sorry Finn, but since Rory already found out what her task is she has to do the Gilmore Challenge."

"Really? I get to do MY challenge?" Rory said excitedly.

"WHAT! Why does she have to do that? I have been waiting for like forever for her to do my challenge! It's not fair. This always happens to the Aussie. " Finn pouted.

"It's the rules, Finn. If the person finds out the task, test or challenge before the time they are supposed to do it, then they have to do that challenge."

"Fine! But I better get to do my challenge next." Finn grumbled.

"OK, Ace lets go." Logan smiled holding out his arm for Rory.

"Go where? I think I like this game." Rory said suggestively.

"Right now, were going to see the LDB, but we can go to my room later if you want." Logan said wiggling his eye brows.

"Oh ok, we can have a movie night and invite Colin, Steph, Rosmary and Finn to come to. We'll all sleep on the floor and eat popcorn." Rory grinned.

Finn laughed out loud. "She really got you there, Mate."

Logan just grinned. He missed his banter with Rory. He hadn't been spending very much time with her lately and he missed her.

When they arrived in the ballroom, the three stood in front by Stephanie and Colin.

"Hey Ror, where were you? You weren't in your room this morning." Stephanie whispered.

"Oh I was just looking around the Mansion."

"Oh that's cool. Hey Finny, thanks for Breakfast this morning! It was wonderful. All of my favorites. Stephanie said.

"What Breakfast, Love?" Finn asked. He was going to have a little fun at Colin's expense.

"Someone brought me Breakfast in Bed this morning. The maid told me that it was from you."

"Oh, no that wasn't from me, Love. That was from Colin. She must have mixed up are names. They do both sound similar."

"Rockefeller and Rothschild don't sound the same."

"Well they both do start with an "R"."

"Yeah I guess she must have."

"Colin." Finn called, making him turn around.

"Yeah?" Colin said.

"Steph here was just telling me how much she loved the Breakfast that you made her this morning."

"Oh wa…um you were?"

"Yeah thanks Colin. It was really sweet of you." Stephanie said blushing a little. She leaned over to kiss his cheek but, Colin not knowing this, looked over at her and their lips met. They felt a surge of electricity pass through their bodies and they pulled apart in surprise. Stephanie looked down shyly and Colin looked like he was going to faint. Amused, Logan quieted the crowd and started to speak.

"Good Morning LDB. Today we have a change of plans. We were originally supposed to have the Rockefeller Challenge today but due to some recent events, we will do the Gilmore Challenge instead." Logan said grinning at Rory. She playfully glared back at him, causing him to laugh.

"And since we are doing that challenge instead, Rory has to chose who she wants to come with her."

"I'll come with her, Logan." Robert called out from the crowd.

"Sorry Robert, but it must be one of the Founder's Descendents. Nice try though." Logan said slightly bitter.

"I try." he said smugly.

"So Rory, who will it be? Stephanie, Colin, Finn or Me?" Logan asked Rory, ignoring Roberts comment.

"Well, um this one is a tough one but I think I know who I want."

"And who is that?"

"I would like to take...

A/N I know… I don't update for like two months and when I do I don't tell you who she is going to take. I'm cruel. I promise (and this is one that I intend to keep) that I will update soon! Review! If you do, I may be more inclined to do it during Spring Break (it's next week for me.)

Thanks as always,

-Missy
