Logan saw Rory as soon as he stepped through the doors. She was always the first person he looked for when he stepped into a room. Subconsciously looking for her even though she was on the other side of the pond, in Stars Hollow, Connecticut, while he was in London. He knew that he should feel guilty doing so, now that he had Odette, but he couldn't help himself. When he saw her for the first time at Branford Hall, putting up posters for Asher Fleming's wake almost thirteen years ago, he had known from the start she was different. Different from the normal bimbos that threw themselves at him. She awoke something in him that he had never felt before, something that at first he thought was just interest and lust, but with time he came to realize was love. The three years he spent with her a his girlfriend were the best of his life, she had showed him something he had never considered before; that he was more than the money that his family had, that he had options, that he could be more than just the Huntzberger heir. After they broke up he was lost, she had given him the courage he never had on his own and without her, he crumbled. He went back to his HPG, working for his father and decided to follow the plan that his parents had for him since birth. Not believing that he could find anyone who could ever compare to Rory, he started dating Odette, a french heiress, that his parents set him up with. After an acceptable amount of time he proposed like he was supposed to, but even then, she continued to live in Paris and he, in London.
When he saw Rory two years ago in Munich, Germany, where he was having a business meeting; all the feelings that had been pushed to the back of his mind, that he had been trying to ignore for the past decade came rushing back. The longing, the regret but most of all the love, that despite doing his best to get rid of, he continued to feel even after she broke his heart by rejecting his proposal the day of her graduation. After a while he came to realize that he had been unfair to push her the way he did, to force her to choose between her lifelong dreams and him; but at the time he was just scared, not thinking clearly. He had no idea what the future was holding for him, the only thing he knew was that he wanted her at his side through it all. Seeing her again had been a surprise, and an opportunity, one that he planned to take full advantage of.
He asked her lunch, during which they took the time to catch up. She told him about following the Obama campaign and how after it she had been drifting around, doing this and that, taking the time to travel and explore while, still writing for different newspapers. He told her about his work for the HPG, how he was now managing the european division, and was currently living in London. They made plans to meet again the next day as they were saying goodbye. Suddenly he was overwhelmed by the sudden urge to kiss her so, he did. There are no words to describe how it felt when they kissed; it was as if all at once, everything was right in the world,he couldn't think about the consequences or what would happen next. All that existed at the moment was him and her. Someone cleared their throat. He looked up and saw the hostess who was expecting an answer.
"Sorry, did you say something?" he asked.
"Do you have a reservation?" asked the hostess again.
"Yes, but the person I am meeting is already inside," he stated.
He then made his way to the table, where Rory was waiting for him.
