So sorry it took long to post but it is a long chapter. I will try and post again soon. ;)
Two weeks later
Rory was a little bit more than eight months pregnant and only had one more week of work before she would be on maternity leave. She had been working long hours at the paper these last two weeks and that was really worrying Logan. She knew that he meant well and was just being the over protective boyfriend/dad, but it was annoying her in the tinniest bit. He knew that she was annoyed but he really just didn't care because he just wanted Rory to take it easy because he loved her and his son with all of his heart. Rory still hasn't talked to Lorelia since the day her and Logan got back together. She missed her mother like crazy, but she didn't want anything to ruin her and Logan's relationship. Logan felt absolutely horrible that Rory and her mother weren't talking because of him. He just wished that Lorelia would accept him so they could move on.
It was eight o'clock when Rory home from her long day at work. Logan heard the door open and he instantly went over to greet her. As soon as he saw her he could tell that she had, had a long day and that she was tired.
Rory knew that Logan was going to say something along the lines of "You need to stop working so much, it's not good for you or the baby." She knew this was true but she had to get all of her work done before she went on maternity leave.
"Hey babe, I know I am late. Before you start the whole your working yourself to hard bit, remember it's only for one more week and then I will have all the time in the world to relax before Jayden decides to make his appearance."
"I wasn't going to say anything Ace, I can see that you are exhausted and probably hungry. Why don't you go get changed and I will get us our dinner and then we can just watch a movie in bed." Logan knew that tonight was not a good night to being up the "your working yourself to hard" thing so he thought it was best to just leave that alone.
"That sounds wonderful, thank you." Rory reached over and gave Logan a quick kiss before she went to their bedroom to change.
When Rory came out of their room Logan had dinner waiting for her on the table. Rory and Logan had a good routine on the week days Logan would make them dinner because he was still working at home, and on the weekends Rory would make them dinner. She had become quite a good cook thanks to Logan. She had a little apron that said "Kiss the Chef" and everything.
"Yum Logan, dinner smells amazing!" Rory sat down and took a bite out of her chicken stir fry. She had discovered that she actually enjoyed foods that were good for you since she was pregnant.
"Thanks, Ace." Logan was just happy that she was willingly eating healthy food.
After dinner as Logan promised they went to watch a movie in bed. They were watching 21. Halfway through the movie Logan picked up the remote and paused it.
"Hey, it was getting to a good part." Rory playfully hit Logan on the side of the head. Everybody knew that you never pause a movie while a Gilmore Girl is watching unless it was a life or death situation.
"I know Ace, but we have to talk about your mom." Logan knew that they needed to have this talk, he knew that it hurt Rory to not talk to her mom.
"Why? There is nothing to talk about. If she can not accept us being together than I don't want her to be in our lives. I love my mother with every bone in my body, but I love you more. While we were apart I realized that I can't live with out you. You are my everything and as much as I love my mother if she cannot accept that then well I don't want her to be apart of our lives." Rory hated that her mother and her were fighting, but if she had to choose between Logan and her mom they she would choose Logan in a heart beat.
"Ace, that is so sweet and I love you even more for saying that but she is your mother and you miss her. What you and your mom have is amazing it is what I always wanted to have between me and my parents. I will not sit back and watch you hurt because of me. You guys need to work it out. Please for me just call her." Logan hated himself because he knew that Rory was hurting because of him and their relationship.
"I know your right, Logan. I will call her tomorrow, I promise. But if she says one bad thing about us then I am done." Rory didn't get why Lorelai had accepted Logan for the most part at the beginning of their relationship, but now didn't.
"Ok babe, oh yeh before I forget were having dinner with the gang on Saturday night, and were having brunch with Satin and his wife on Sunday." Logan was not looking forward to brunch with his parents. He still hadn't told them that he and Rory were back together let alone about the baby.
"I am sure it wont be that bad. At least I am prepared for what your parents will say. Which reminds me we are going to have to have dinner with my grandparents soon. Grandma will have my head if she finds out from someone else that we are back together. I am actually surprised she hasn't found out yet."
"We wouldn't want Emily to do that, now would we? Any was lets finish the movie and go to bed we both have had long days.
"That sound like an excellent idea." Rory snuggled up to Logan as he pressed the play button on the remote.
Next day…. (its Friday)
Rory was on her lunch break when she decided she would call her mother. She didn't want to do it at home because she didn't want Logan to hear the conversation. She was afraid that he would feel to guilty about the fact that he was the cause between their fight, and would leave.
"Dragonfly Inn, Lorelai speaking how may I help you?"
"Hey Mom, its me Rory."
"Rory, did some thing happen to the baby? Did you and Logan have a fight?" Rory was pissed that her mother assumed she and Logan had fought.
"No, the baby is fine, and no Logan and I didn't fight were great. Why would you assume that me and him were fighting?"
"I don't know Rory, it was just a question. So why did you call?"
"I wanted to try and work things out, because I hate fighting with you."
"Yeh, me to."
"If were gona work things out then you are going to need to accept and be nice to Logan. He is the father of my son and the love of my life. If you cant accept that then were not going to talk."
"I want to go back to the way thing were Rory before we fought, I don't want us to be like me and my mother. You're my daughter and best friend and if the only way that I will see you and my grandson is if I accept Logan then I will accept him." Lorelai truly meant this.
"Ok good, look I still want to talk about this but I have to get back to work. Next week is my last week of work so how about on Friday I will drive down spend the night and go home on Saturday." When Rory referred to New York as her home it really shocked Lorelai. Stars Hollow had always been Rory's home even after she moved to New York. This was the first time Rory had called New York her home and she was positive that it was because of Logan.
"That sounds good, is Logan going to come?"
"Uhmm I don't know that is up to him, but if he does come please be nice."
"I will." As much as Lorelai does not want to be nice she knows she if she isn't then she will loose Rory.
"Ok good. Well I really have to get back to work so I will see you next weekend."
"Alright well it was great hearing from you and I cant wait to see you."
"Yeh me to, bye mom."
"Bye babe."
Rory got home early today, she got home at five. She wanted to surprise Logan by coming home early. When she got home she was shocked to not find Logan. She didn't remember him having to go anywhere today. She called to see where he was.
"Hey Ace, what's up?"
"Oh nothing I left work early so that I could surprise you, but your not here."
"Oh I am sorry, I just had some thing to take care of I should be home soon. Do you want me to pick up take out?" Logan was secretly working on a surprise for Rory.
"Yeh that sounds great. Can we get Indian. Jayden REALLY wants it."
"Of course, I got to go though, I will see you in a bit."
"Kay, love you."
"Love you to, Ace." And with that the conversation ended. Rory had absolutely no idea that Logan was planning anything and Logan intended on keeping it that way.
30 minutes later…
Logan was walking through the door "Hey Ace, I'm home."
Rory who was on the couch reading Pride and Prejudice came waddling over to meet him.
"Hey babe, I'm home."
"Did you get the food?" Rory was starving.
"Yeh, I did don't worry. Why don't you get some plates out while I get everything out of the bags."
"I already took the plates out."
Logan was laughing "I am guessing you are really hungry."
"So hungry."
"Ok well I don't want to keep a Gilmore Girl from here food, dig in."
Rory and Logan ate dinner while watching TV. They spent most the dinner mocking the TV show they were watching. Once they were done eating they started to clean up their mess.
Logan yelled from the kitchen to Rory who was in the small living room "Hey Ace, I was just wondering did you call your mom today."
Logan couldn't get over the fact that Rory and her mother were fighting because of him. Rory and Lorelai had the relationship that he had always wanted with his parents. He didn't want their's to be ruined because of him. He was also worried that one day Rory would resent him because she and her mother weren't talking. Rory had assured Logan many time that, that would never happen but he was still afraid that it might. He also didn't want Rory to think that he would make her choose between Lorelai and him, even if that meant Lorelai would never accept him.
Rory came into the kitchen carrying a take out box and there empty cups. Logan went over to take them from her.
"Actually yes I did."
"And." Logan was very anxious to here the details.
"I basically told her that I hated fighting with her, but she had to accept you if she wanted to be apart of mine and Jayden's life."
"I love you for that Ace, but you don't have to cut her out of your life."
"I know that Logan but I want to if she cant accept you, because you mean the world to me and if she can't see that then I don't want her to be in our son's life."
"Thank Ace that means a lot. Anyways what did she say to that." Logan was very curious.
"Well she said that she would, and she I told her that we still had stuff to talk about. I told her that I would come down and spend the night next weekend."
"That sounds great. I am so happy you guys are going to work everything out."
"Yeh I am to. Oh yeh are you going to come next weekend. My mom said it was cool if you came." Lorelai didn't really say those exact words but Rory wanted him to come.
"I would, but I kind of promised Collin and Finn that we could have some guy time. Apparently they feel neglected, but if you want me to go I will."
Rory was laughing at what Logan said. "No babe, it's fine you have to take care of Collin and Finn."
Logan was thrilled that Rory said she was fine if he were to hang with Collin and Finn because he needed that time to get his surprise together for her.
"Ok great, well why don't we go to bed because it is getting late and we have a busy weekend."
"That sounds good. Hey before we go to dinner with the gang tomorrow do you think we could go baby shopping, I have not gotten a lot of stuff yet because I was waiting to find out if it was a boy or girl."
"Of course Ace."
With they both went into their bedroom to get ready for bed.
