A/N: I know what you're thinking. Two chapters in one day?!? How is this possible? Well, this thought just popped into my head, I had to run with it. It's short, but I like it.

Disclaimer: Nope.

Ch. 12- Shout to the World

Logan's new girlfriend, Candi, had just gotten home with a surprise gift for him, wrapped in shiny green paper. He had chosen someone completely opposite from his last girlfriend on purpose. She was blonde and kind of ditsy. He couldn't talk to her about serious things, but she was fun to have around and was good in bed. His family loved her. They all thought she'd make a lovely addition to the Huntzberger dynasty. She was thoughtful sometimes, he had to admit as he opened her present. She was grinning like crazy when he tore the paper off. It was obviously a book, which she proudly exclaimed that she knew he hadn't read because the bookstore had told her it was brand new. She never had been able to memorize all the books he owned the way Rory had. He pushed her name from his head and glanced at the cover of the book.

Despite Candi's insistence that the book was new, there was something very familiar about it. He smiled at her and gave her a long kiss before opening the cover of the short novel. The first page held two dedications below the title, which also seemed somehow familiar. He read the first dedication which was to someone named Luke, thanking him for everything, whatever that meant. His first thought was that the author must be gay. That was until he read the second dedication. It read: "To Rory, the only person who never gave up on me and has given me a chance time and time again and without whom, this would never have been written. All my love." Logan felt the room spin as he closed the book and read the author's name again. He threw the book across the room and shouted a particularly nasty word before noticing the hurt look on his girlfriend's face. He apologized to her and explained that he knew the author and that they did not get along, but that he appreciated her gift anyway. Then he promised to take her shopping and to dinner and she cheered up considerably. At least she was easy to please; not like some people he knew. He gave the now crumpled book on the floor a last, disdainful look before locking arms with Candi and heading out the door.

A/N: Logan's finally out of the way for good! Just thought this would be a good way to get that dedication thing taken care of without it being Rory who's reading it. Now that he told her about it, he'll show her what it says himself.
