A/N – once again pointing out that I do not own Gilmore Girls, I am just a frustrated fan that lives out my favorite TV shows and books through fan fiction.

POV*Rory

My first impression of Logan was that he looked tried, upon closer inspection though it looked as if he hadn't slept in weeks. I could fully understand this look, I saw it every time I looked in the mirror. As I got to the table, Logan stood and said, "Hey Rory."

I wanted to through myself into his arms and cry out how much I loved and beg him to take me back, but I held myself back and just responded, "Hi Logan."

He waved for me to sit down across from where he was sitting before sitting back down himself. "I ordered a drink for you," he said pointing to the martini sitting right in front of me.

'Oh crap,' I thought. Now what was I supposed to do, I couldn't drink this, especially if I was pregnant. "Thanks," I said just looking at it.

"What did you want to talk to me about?" He asked. I guess he wasn't going to procrastinate tonight.

"I'm sorry Logan. About what happened at my graduation. I want you to know a few things before I tell you my biggest news. Will you promise to listen to me?" I looked down at the table, fearing rejection. He knew my fears, we had talked about them enough and one of my biggest was people judging me and not allowing me to talk before writing me off and walking away.

"I'll listen, Ror."

"My mom, she never really approved of you, but you already knew that. She was always saying things snide comments about your or your, our, friends. I never really noticed them. They tapered off for a while, while she was with Luke and we were talking again, but they were always there. Then when you got into your accident she really started in on how bad of a person you were. That was when I really started to take notice. I want you to know that I never listened to them, I know you Logan and you are a good man, so I started defending you in a way that she never could argue against, it was always funny to watch her try though."

"Why are you telling me all this Rory?" he asked looking very confused.

"I'm getting there," I said, smirking a little. "Once your business deal fell through she started commenting about how you were never going to amount to anything and everything you did would end in failure. I think she knew before you asked if you could marry me that you wanted to marry me. I've always wanted to make my mom happy, you know. I mean she gave up everything for me, or so I was always told. I talked to Francine and she told me how my mom told her and Strobe to stay away from me, of course I didn't find this out till I left for the campaign. When you asked me to marry you, all I could hear was my mom telling me that if I did, who would want to be around a stuck up socialite and her rich play boy husband. I don't think that, but the thought was there, in my mind and I just couldn't shake it. Now that I look back though all I see is her running my life for me. And for that I'm sorry that I ever allowed that to affect my relationship with you."

"I know all this Rory," he said. "I also know that you aren't following the campaign anymore, and I want to tell you that if it's because of me, I want you to stay on. I'll wait for you Ace."

It was him saying 'Ace' that brought on the tears that I had been holding back all day. As they started to fall, Logan got up and sat down next to me and pulled me toward him. He wrapped his arms around me, and rocked me back and forth. Once I had pulled myself together, I told him, "I am leaving the campaign trail, and not just because of you, but because I can't live without you. I need you Logan, more than I've ever needed anyone, especially right now."

"What do you mean Ace?"

"Do you still love me Logan?" I asked, avoiding his question for the moment, I would tell him. I just had to know if he still wanted me.

"Of course I do, in point of fact," he said sliding out of the booth and getting down on one knee. He pulled out the ring that he had tried to give me three and a half weeks ago. "Will you marry me Ace?"

"You'll never leave right? You'll walk away from me, from us?" I had to ask, and he knew that I didn't ask to doubt him, but because every guy in my life had left me and my insecurities about men were still there.

"Never Ace. I'll always be there for you, with you, in everything thing that you do. I promise you. You're the only one for me Rory. I can't live without you either." He said softly, soothing my insecurities, and taking the ring out of the box.

I was overcome with tears at his words and was only able to nod my head. As he was sliding the ring on my finger I suddenly realized that I hadn't told him the biggest news and he needed to know first. "Wait. I still have something to tell you. I want you to know that I had already decided to stay here, and be with you, or follow you till you took me back."

He just smiled at me, "Ace, you're rambling."

"Logan, I think I'm pregnant. I can't remember when my last period was, and I ate fruit. And I liked it Logan. Plus none of my clothes are fitting right, they are all too small and I bought them fairly recently."

"A baby, really Ace?" Logan was beaming. He just slipped the ring the rest of the way onto my left ring finger. "We might be having a baby?"

"Yes, we might be having a baby. I have an appointment tomorrow to make sure, I wanted to tell you my suspicions first, and I want you to be there with me."

"Always Ace, always," was his only reply.

A/N - Just to clarify, I like Lorelai, but I always thought that she treated Rory like a baby, even when she was 21. I mean, Rory wanted to take a break from school and Lorelai didn't approve so they didn't talk for months, omg over reaction much. And the stuff in this story about her ragging on Logan all the time is my way of putting into view her prejudices against society, and every once in a while you would catch a jab at Logan that she made on the show. So yes I realize that some, or maybe a lot of this is OOC but that's just my view and how they ended up when I wrote it out.
