Can't believe how many positive responses I have gotten on just the first chapter! I am definitely going to try to continue this story, but we will see what inspiration/school have to say about that! Once I get an outline finalized, I will try to put out a new chapter every week or so, so stay tuned!

I realize I should have noted this in the first chapter, but better late than never! The italicized sentences are used to show like an inner monologue. I will probably use italics elsewhere, but it should be obvious where they are used as someone thinking to themselves. Sorry if it was confusing!

(AN: I am still working on a name for Rory's online magazine, suggestions are welcome!)


To say Rory had a restless night would be the understatement of the century. She laid awake all night thinking about the lunch that she had accidentally gotten herself into, and how on earth she was going to handle seeing Logan again... let alone ask him to be a part of this dream project.

So by the time Rory walked into the not completely finished offices of Paperless, around 9 a.m., she was running on 3 hours of sleep. This was going to be a not-enough-coffee-in-the-world kind of day, and according to the Gilmore handbook, those were the kind of days one has to avoid at all costs!

"Morning Rory!" the office secretary says wayyyy to energetically for Rory's taste

"Hi Jane. Any messages yet this morning?"

"Actually yes. You got a phone call from Emily Gilmore asking why you weren't up and at the office already."

"Ugh fantastic. I will call her when I sit down." Rory says to Jane as she starts walking to her own office.

"Wait! Rory! You had another message."

"Really? Okay what was it? If it was my grandmother again, don't worry about repeating what I am sure is a message in the same vain as the last one" I am so not prepared to deal with Emily today. Last time I checked 9 a.m. wasn't mid afternoon!

"Nope, it wasn't your grandmother again. It was from a Logan Huntzberger? He wanted to confirm your lunch date today."

Date? Did he call it a date or is Jane calling it a date?

"Okay great… um I will call him right away. Thanks!" Rory basically runs (or walks as fast as a Gilmore Girl is able to) into her office and shuts the door. She sinks into her chair, and stares at the phone sitting at her desk. She knows she has to call and confirm or else he will think she is canceling, but the thought of talking to him this early in the morning with so little sleep makes her want to crawl under her desk and hide all day. Just do it already. He might not even answer!

Rory gets up and starts brewing a pot of coffee. Deciding it is now or never, she picks up the phone and dials the number to Logan's office at his firm.

"Hello, Logan Huntzberger's office, Krista speaking." Great, the 20 year old blonde again.

"Yes hi. This is Rory Gilmore and I am calling to confirm a meeting with Mr. Huntzberger."

"What did you say your name was? I do not see any meetings with a Laurie Gilspore on Mr. Huntzberger's calendar."

Oh my god, who does this girl think she is?

"Well that is probably because my name is R-O-R-Y G-I-L-M-O-R-E" Rory says trying not to lose her cool completely

"Sorry, Miss. There must be something wrong on your end of the phone." Could this girl be any more condescending?

"It's fine. Can you please just confirm the meeting for me? Logan called to confirm and that is all I am trying to do." The last bit of coffee energy has officially left Rory's body.

"Hold please."

While Krista is off confirming the appointment, Rory puts the phone on speaker and gets up to pour herself a fresh cup of coffee. Just as the smell of the coffee hits her nose, and she takes her first sip of her life's blood she emits a small moan; a moan that is reserved for the first sip of a fresh cup of coffee. No sooner does the moan escape her mouth she hears Logan's voice cut through moment of bliss.

"Did I catch you and your coffee in an intimate moment? I can call back if you two need some time Ace."

"Oh my god, Logan!" Rory jumps at the sound of his voice echoing through her sparsely decorated office. "When did you get on the line? I was just trying to confirm your lunch confirmation when your secretary put me on hold."

"Krista came into my office telling me a woman named Laurie was trying to confirm a meeting for this afternoon that she didn't have on the books. I put two and two together, and figured it was you on the phone, so I picked up the line."

"I told her twice my name wasn't Laurie! And shouldn't you have told her to schedule our lunch yesterday when I called?"

"Well, Laurie. I did tell her to schedule our lunch but it seems as though she 'forgot'."

Rory can hear his smirk all the way through the phone when he calls her Laurie.

"Oh. Well I just wanted to confirm our lunch so now that we did that I will let you go…" Rory says trying to get off this call as fast as possible.

"Where's the fire Ror? No need to call and run."

"Well…" Rory starts searching the room for a reason to get off the phone when she sees her missed message note on her desk

"Ah! I have to call my grandmother before she sends a doctor to my house to make sure I am still alive. Apparently it is not proper to get to the office past 8 a.m.." She has never been more thankful that she had to return a call from Emily than she was right in this moment.

"Then I guess I will let you go. Don't want Emily to send a squad of doctors to kick down your door and examine you from head to toe."

"Yeah, that would not be great especially since she just had an antique mahogany door from Mrs. Kim Antique Shop installed at my place. According to Mrs. Kim it was once owned by a great nephew twice removed of George Washington. It would be a damn shame to see that door go down in pieces especially since it has all that history and the pizza delivery guys seem to be able to find my place better since the door is so uniq-…"

"Woah Ace, that was a serious Gilmore rant you had going there. I would have loved to hear it continue but we wouldn't want Emily to actually have the door kicked down, now would we?"

Oh my god. Get it together Rory! Just tell him goodbye already!

"You are so right Logan. I guess the confirmation has been confirmed and I will see you at noon."

"I will be there with bells on. Bye Ace."

Rory hangs up when she hears the dead line on the other end.

"Only 2 and a half more hours to prepare for this lunch" she says to herself

"Rory, Emily Gilmore is on the line and she is yelling. I think you should take this." A panicked Jane informes Rory over the intercom.

"Sorry, Jane. I'll take care of it." Rory says as she picks up line 2.

"Rory, this is your grandmother. I cannot believe you were not in the office at 8 a.m.! I was so close to sending someone to your hous-…"

Only 2 hours and 26 minutes till lunch…

"Rory! I asked you if you were feeling ill? I hear there is a nasty virus going around!"

"Sorry grandma, I just have a lot on my mind…"


Well here is the second chapter! The lunch will be next and hopefully that will be up sometime this weekend. Thanks for all the favorites, follows, and reviews! They have really motivated me to keep going! If you guys have any suggestions as to where to take the story, definitely let me know. I only have a rough outline for future chapters so the more suggestions the merrier!
