Title When Push Comes to Shove, You Go SPLAT
Beta Christine I love you hun…you're awesome
Summery: Post Not as cute as pushkin It all started with a simple marriage prank. But what was once a harmless prank turns competitive when neither Rory nor Logan are willing to let each other win. How far are they willing to go before the other one cracks? Well, as far as they need to.
Disclaimer: I don't own Gilmore Girls, even though it would be totally awesome if I did. I can imagine myself walking around the set, talking it up with Alexis and Matt. Wouldn't that be a dream. And Luke's diner would be a little different. Two words: Glitter Menus!
A/n WOW you guys really do like my story, Thank you so much for those really nice kind words that you said. Chapter 3 is up now!
Thanks to you who reviewed:

Treenuh: Hahaha, yes that phrase does sound appropriate now. Don't you worry; Rory will get Logan back alright. –Evil smirk-
Revenge is sweet…
Rory lay on her new comforter, glaring up at the ceiling. It was the only place where Logan's name or picture wasn't starring back at her. She was fuming. She didn't know what to do, but she knew that he had to pay for this. He might have won the battle three days ago, but she was definitely going to win the war. All she had to do was get him where it hurt. Well, what was it that Logan was known for? He had a different woman every night; had a lot of money that he used at whim; everyone knew who he was; and he was good looking, or at least he thought so. The question now was how to combine everything into one prank? Hum…Rory smiled as she thought of the perfect prank. Now to make some calls. Who first? Finn and Colin of course.
Logan sat outside sipping some coffee that he had purchased at the kiosk. He had just finished class and wanted a little peace and quiet before going back to his dorm. His thoughts soon wandered to Rory and what she was up to. She was probably in class studying, or reading a book a semester in advance. He laughed at the image of her in her room trying to read but being distracted by the mural. He remembered how after he had heard the scream, Rory had come out five minutes later in sweat pants and a shirt looking soggy and defeated. She didn't have to say anything, but he knew that she knew he had beaten her.
A couple minutes later, a skinny auburn haired girl walked over to Logan and sat down next to him. He didn't notice her at first, still caught up in his thoughts, but when she started giggling, it got his attention and he looked up and smiled.
"Hey Logan." She said smiling flirtatiously.
"Hey….Nicole." Logan said in more of a question then a statement.
"You remembered my name." She giggled.
"Of course. How could I forget anyone like you?" He responded charmingly.
"You did call me Jules last time." She pouted.
"Only because it was a nickname for you, since your eyes are like jewels."
"Awww, Wogan." She said, almost like a baby.
She hugged him and he looked relieved that she had bought it.
"So, I'm back from my three week trip to Paris. Did you want to do anything tomorrow night? She asked, smiling suggestively.
"Sure. I believe I'm free." Logan smirked.
"Great. I'll see you at my dorm at like eight-thirty?" She asked.
"You will." He smiled and she kissed him on the cheek and left.
Ten minutes later, Logan finished his coffee and walked towards his dorm. But he couldn't help but feel way deep in his gut that he was doing something wrong. He didn't know why, but he did.
Rory dialed the number that the office had given her and held her breath as she heard it ring.
"Hello?" A guy with an extreme Australian accent answered.
"Hi. Is this Finn?" She asked.
"Yes. And who might this be?" He asked into the phone.
"Oh I'm uh Rory; Rory Gilmore. I'm friends with Logan Huntzberger. I believe you know him."
"Doll, everyone knows Logan."
"Right. If it helps, I'm the one who went to the LDB event with you guys. I also was the one who "pranked" Logan using my grandfather, to say that we were getting married."
"Ah. Reporter girl, I remember you. Logan was truly speechless after your grandfather called him. He actually called him back to see if it was indeed true." Finn smiled.
"Really? Well, what can I say, I'm the master. But that's why I called. I need you to help me."
"I'm intrigued. Tell me more."
"How well do you know Logan?" Rory asked, stressing the well.
As Logan walked back toward his dorm, he called a familiar number and smiled when a woman picked up.
"Mathew Mitchell hair, how may I help you?" A woman receptionist asked.
"Linda, it's Logan Huntzberger. " He said.
"Oh, Hello mister Huntzberger, what can we help you with today?"
"Linda, you know how I feel about you calling me by my last name."
"Oh I'm sorry, Logan."
"It's fine. Now I need an appointment for tomorrow." He said while walking into his dorm. He grabbed a soda from the refrigerator and then sat on the black leather couch going over times for his appointment.
Meanwhile, Finn was in the matching chair next to the couch still talking to Rory. They were also making plans, but of a totally different matter.
"Logan just walked in." Finn said, still talking to Rory.
"Shoot, maybe we should hang up." She said getting ready to end her call.
"No, I don't think that is necessary. He's on the phone making a hair appointment. We should be fine."
"Ok. Wait what did you say? He's making a hair appointment? Where?"
"Uh Mathew Mitchell I think. He always goes there."
"He must be making it for at least a month from now, since they are always so booked."
"No I think it's for tomorrow. He is a Huntzberger after all."
"Oh yeah, I forgot." She grumbled, rolling her eyes.
"I swear, you are so different." Finn chuckled, shaking his head.
"Wait, what's that supposed to mean?" Rory asked, frowning.
"Nothing, it's just that you're not like the other girls Logan hangs around, therefore you're different."
"Oh. Wait I've got the perfect prank." Rory said grinning from ear to ear.
"Well do tell, luv."
"Do you know Mathew Mitchell's number?" Rory asked.
"No, but I can get it." Finn said watching Logan hang up with his call and go into his room, leaving his phone on the glass side table.
"Perfect." Rory grinned.
After getting the number from Finn, Rory told him his part that he had to do. Basically all he was in charge of was throwing the largest surprise "engagement" party he could. Everything else, Rory would take care of. At first she thought of calling Logan's father and having him withhold all of his money from his son. But after thinking, she found an even better one thanks to good old Finn. She carefully dialed the number Finn had given her and waited until the receptionist answered.
"Mathew Mitchell hair, how may I help you?"
"Hi, this is Rory Gilmore, Logan Huntzberger's fiancé. I'm calling about his appointment tomorrow." She said trying to sound natural and suave.
"Yes, Logan has an appointment for tomorrow. He's getting a trim and a hair dye." She said reading it off her agenda.
"Yes, I'm calling to tell you that there has been a change in hair dyes that Logan wants to use. He'd like his hair color to be lime green instead of blond."
"Lime Green? Are you absolutely sure?" The woman asked, taken aback.
"Absolutely positive. We're going to a costume party later and he needs it for his costume. You know how he gets into the spirit of things.
"Yes. Well we'll order the color and make sure our stylist gets the memo."
"Thank you so much."
After Rory finished her call, she left her dorm and started for Logan's. She had some last minute details to hammer out with Finn. She had her nose in a book and didn't notice a girl walking her way. It wasn't until they collided that she noticed the girl.
"Oh sorry, I wasn't paying attention." Rory said as she looked up.
"Oh it's fine, neither was I." the girl laughed.
"I'm Rory."
"Nicole. I was on my way to my boyfriend, Logan's dorm. I wanted to talk about our date plans."
"Really. What's you're boyfriend's last name?"
"Huntzberger. Why?"
"Oh, it's just that I'm Logan's fiancé. He proposed to me like a week ago." Rory said showing her the ring that she was still wearing. She had been so busy; she had forgotten to take it off.
"Really? He never mentioned that to me." The auburn haired girl said, looking shocked.
"He did mention that you guys where going to going out together to me. In fact, he invited me along." Rory said smiling. Inside though, she felt a pang of hurt hit her stomach. But she refused to call it jealously. She did not have feelings for him. She was only in it to come out victorious.
"Oh. He did?"
"Yeah. Actually, I am glad I've run into you. I was wondering if we could see a movie instead. I was thinking White Chicks, but we could see Ever After if you prefer."
"Um…"
"And if you really want, we could watch both."
"You know what; I uh don't think I can go tomorrow. I just remembered that I have uh a class tomorrow night. But maybe another time." She said.
"Sure, no problem. I know how these things are."
"Yeah well, do you think you can tell Logan for me?"
"Sure."
"Thanks. Well, I've gotta run. Um…Bye." Nicole said walking fast in the other direction.
Rory bit her lip as she tried not to laugh. But as she saw her leave, she kind of felt bad that she had just told that girl what she did. It wasn't like she owned Logan or anything. He did have the right to go out with whomever he chose. But when she remembered the war they were in, all sympathy was lost. This was a battle that she wasn't going to lose.
The next day, Logan left the dorms at four in the afternoon to get to his appointment on time. After he had left, Finn had called Rory and the two of them along with Colin, planned out the party. Rory had told the two what she had told the Mathew Mitchell woman and the boys laughed so hard tears were rolling down their cheeks. Logan was very sensitive when it came to his face and hair, and that's why he always had all of the best grooming products available. Logan was going to flip when he found out.
After Logan had gotten to Mathew Mitchell's, he was seated right away. He asked them before they started, if they could do his eye brows also so they would match his hair. They agreed, but the stylist had told him that he had chosen a very different color. Logan didn't get it at the time. Blond was blond, right? After two hours, they finished blow drying his hair and turned him around to see his finished product. His eyes went large and his mouth wide.
"My hair is GREEN." Hesaid horrified.
"Yes Sir, just as you requested."
"No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I never told you green. If I recall correctly, I said BLOND."
"Yes sir, you did. But a little while after you called, you're fiancé called and told us to change it to lime green. She was very clear that you wanted it changed."
"My fiancé? God, Rory. Um is there any way you could I don't know, switch it back to blond?" Logan said stressing out.
"I'm terribly sorry sir, but I am completely filled and it is to late to switch appointments with someone. I think the earliest we could get you in is tomorrow afternoon."
"Ok, I'd like that appointment."
"Very Good sir, I'll see you tomorrow."
"Yes, uh ok." Logan said going to the front desk and paying. What he had to go through to win. His eyebrows were lime green for goodness sakes.
Logan drove back to Yale and parked. Then he looked around to make sure there was no one there and started to race towards his dorm. He would have to reschedule with Nicole.
"Nice Hair." He heard someone say as he got within ten yards of his dorm. He turned around and saw Rory leaning against the wall drinking a cup of coffee.
"You." Logan said as he walked up to her and put his arm to one side of the wall so she couldn't escape.
"Yes it is me." She said, trying not to laugh.
"I can't believe you dyed my hair lime green." Logan said shaking his head.
"I tried saying mime green but they didn't have that color." Rory said grinning.
"Of all the colors, Lime Green? I look like an oompa loompa." He said frowning.
"Now that you mention it, you do. Of course you would need orange skin, but that could be arranged."
"I bet it could."
"Don't be so glum, chum. I think it's nice that you are trying to start a new trend.
"Now I can't go anywhere tonight. I can't risk anyone seeing me."
"Well, then its good that Nicole told me to tell you that she can't make it tonight."
"What? Why not?"
"Something about having a class that she forgot about." Rory said innocently.
"What did you do?"
"What makes you think I did anything?"
"The fact that she says that she has school. She hardly takes any classes." Logan said as his phone began to ring.
"Hello?" He answered.
"Mate, where are you?"
"I'm almost back, why?"
"Someone called for you, sounded urgent."
"Who?"
"I don't know; some old person."
"Ok, I'm coming." Logan said rolling his eyes and hanging up his cell.
"I'm not done with you, Ace." Logan tried to say seriously but the edges of his lips curved into a smile.
"Who was that?" she asked as he grabbed her hand and pulled her to follow him.
"Finn being well, Finn." Logan answered.
When they got to his dorm, Logan opened the door and the two walked into a dark dorm. Then all of a sudden, the lights flipped on and everyone yelled surprise. Once again Logan's mouth hung open and he looked at Rory.
Rory could almost see flashing red lights saying Winner! The queen had taken back the throne and the revenge was sweet.
