Parties Goodbyes
Rory's POV
I hear a tap at my balcony window and I get up and open my curtains to find the one and only Logan Huntzberger standing there. I open the window and let him in.
"What are you doing here?" I ask in a whisper
"You said you wanted to see me everyday so here I am" he says and I put my arms around him and start kissing him and leading him back to my bed like the last two nights we have sex but this time in my bed while my parents are in the house and have no idea the reason I'm being sent away is doing just what they hoped to take me away from.
We fall asleep until my alarm goes off at 630, it wakes us both up.
"Damn Logan your still here, sneak back out the way you came and I will see you in a bit over an hour" I say to him as I get up and go to my bathroom to shower. Once dressed I head downstairs and get my take away coffee and have some pancakes. Once done I walk out still not having said a word to my parents in more than 24 hours.
I go out side and instead of Steph, Logan is there.
"Where is Steph?" I say
"I offered to pick you up so I can spend more time with you" he says to me and I give him a kiss and we head off to school. He parks the car and we walk in together him holding my hand and go straight to my locker.
"I don't even know why I'm bothering by the end of the week I'm out of here and off to boarding school. I still can't believe they are doing that" I say and I bang my head against my locker. Then the rest of the group rocks up"So are you being shipped off?" They ask and I realise Logan and Steph didn't tell anyone.
"Yes I leave on Saturday afternoon" I say and I see everyone's faces drop.
"At least tell us you will be close enough that we can visit?" Finn asks
"How does Switzerland sounds?" I reply
"No that's too far away" Louise says
"That's the point and it's all girls too" I say
"So Gilmore farewell party this Friday, my place" Colin says
"Sounds good now about this week I want it to be fun and memorable, so here is the plan from now on mornings the girls pick me up though it was a nice surprise Logan and the afternoons I spend with you Logan. Can you all agree to that?" And they do.
The week flies by each afternoon I spend with Logan making sure we remember each other.
On Thursday afternoon I bring up the elephant in the room.
"So after I get on my flight we won't see each other for a while" I say with melancholy in my voice.
"I know but I'm still going to miss you" he says
"I know I will too but you will need to move on find others to fill your time I know you will have no problem with that" I say
"Rory don't say that" he says
"It's true Logan I won't be with anyone but that's because of circumstance not because I don't want to and you will be at Yale in 8 months enjoy your freedom before the Huntzberger dynasty becomes a reality" I say letting him know he will be free once I'm on the plane.
"I think I should go home now still got last minute things to pack if I want to enjoy tomorrow night" I say
"Let me drive you" he says
"It's fine I will grab a cab see you at school tomorrow" I say after I get dressed and head downstairs. Just as I'm walking out the door Honour walks in.
"Rory what are you doing here?" She asks
"Just spending time with Logan before I get shipped away on Saturday" I say
"Shipped away?"she asked
"Yeah Dad found out I was having sex and thinks I'm going to end up like mom 16 and pregnant so I'm being shipped off to boarding school in Switzerland" I tell her
"Oh that's so sad Rory well I better let you go and talk soon ok"
Logan's POV
I just lay in my bed after she has gone home then there is a knock on my door.
"Just a minute" I say and I quickly grab some boxers
"Come in" I call
I turn around and see Honour. "What are you doing here?" I ask her
"I came to visit you and Finn may have called and said you needed your sister, what's going on?" She asks
"Well I have continued seeing Rory even though she leaves in less than 48 hours and I think I fell for her and she is telling me to move on once she goes to Switzerland" I pour out to her.
"Sure sounds like it and she is telling you to move on because she knows nothing can happen with her for more than 2 years and 8 months till she is at college and if your both lucky enough it will be Yale but by then you will be a junior and she will be a freshman. She is right you will have to move on but enjoy the time you have with her now" she says and she heads off to her room.
Rory's last day of school went off without a hitch but she went home with the girls so she can get ready for tonight's party. I change at home and make sure I have enough condoms because I know it will happen. I drive over to Colin's at 7 party starts at 8 but the rest of us get there early for a pre party celebration.
I get there to find the girls and all the guys there. "The last of our party to arrives" Colin says and hands me my scotch. I see Rory sitting there with space next to her wearing the hottest little black party dress with her hair nicely curled and make up done perfect she takes my breath away and I go sit down by her and give her a kiss.
"So when is the next time you will be home?" Madeline asks
"I think I'm just going to stay there till summer" she says knocking me sideways
"Summer" we all say
"Yeah I don't know when spring break is and it will hurt too much seeing you guys for such a short time" she tells us and my heart breaks I was already planning something's to do with her now I have to wait for summer.
"I didn't want this to bring the party down now come on let's drink up and enjoy my last night of non boarding school life" she says and she swallows the rest of her drink and goes and gets another from the bar all the while party set up is taking place around them.
The party starts and all the guest start to arrive they say their farewells to Rory and then start drinking and mingling and dancing after a couple of hours I pull her away from everyone and take her up to my guest bedroom. Where we spend the next hour and a half saying good bye to each other's bodies. After we finish we get redressed and head back down where the party is still pumping and Rory grabs a drink and finds he friends for a dance while I hit the bar for a few shots and another scotch.
"How are you holding up mate?" Finn asks me
"To be honest mate not very well, I'm going to miss her more than she knows" I tell him
"Tell her then" he tells me
"She has already told me to move on once she is on the plane" I tell him
"Really she said that?" He ask
"Yeah she is well beyond her years, but the harder thing is I am actually falling for her so letting go is going to be tough" i say to him not realising I opened up so much.
"Don't worry she will be back" he says as he grabs another drink and walks off to find his girl.
3 hours later the party had ended and it was just the group all doing shots at Rory's request.
"In less then 12 hours I will be on a plane to Switzerland and away from all of you" she says and she starts crying I pull her in to a hug and kiss her on the head and everyone including my friends look at me like I grew a second head except Finn because he knows the truth.
"Take me to bed" she whispers in my ear and I lift her up.
"She is ready for bed we will see you in the morning" I say and carry her up to our room. She proceeds to undress me and I start undressing her and we soon have sex for another two times before we have to get up and get her home so her parents can take her to the airport we are all going to take a limo ourselves.
She has her coffee then I drive her home and then back to Colin's. the limo is picking us up a 12 and it's only 1130 so I go in a grab myself a scotch.
"Ok Logan cut the crap, your only casual with Rory yet you are acting like you really care for her" Steph says to me
"That's because I do Steph I'm falling for her and it so hard to see her leave like this and it's going to be harder to follow her wishes" I say taking a swig of my scotch.
"What wishes?" Louise asks
"To move on once she is gone" I say "if she wants that then I can't see her when she back on holidays or vacation" I tell them and they look at me shocked.
"But Logan you cant" Finn says
"I will do what I need to preserve myself Finn" I say
"But then you will hurt Rory which you promised me you wouldn't do" he yells back
"She did it to me first Finn" I say and I finish my drink I look out the window and see the limo here.
"lets get this over with" I say and I walk out and get in the limo.
45 minutes later we are all standing by the security gate waiting for Rory she walks along with her parents and we all look at her sadly.
Her father see me and just about explodes "what's he doing here" I hear him hiss. "Saying goodbye to your daughter now quite" Lorelai says.
She makes her way over to us she hugs all the boys saying she will miss them and see them at summer then to all the girls but Steph. So goes to Steph hugs her and starts to cry and it's like their is an unspoken conversation that happens and it's hard for me to take.
Then she is in front of me all I can do is kiss her I have no words I can't get them out, so I put all my feelings into the kiss. "Bye Logan, take care and see you at summer" she says and then goes over to her parents gives her mom a hug and grabs her carry on. She still not talking to her dad because it's too much what he is doing to her.
She walks through security and waves then turns the corner. I walk straight back out to our limo and pour myself a scotch and down it in a heartbeat. Soon everyone else is back and I'm onto my third glass just pouring and drinking.
"Huntz it's not going to help" Finn says to me and all I can do is think of her the car moves and I pull out my phone and send her a text.
goodbye Rory I will miss, you good luck with all your endeavours and maybe when it's time for us we will meet again xxx*
Once sent I turn my phone off and grab the scotch again.
Rory's POV
I have said all the goodbyes and the hardest were Steph and Logan but I have to let him go.
I'm sitting waiting for the flight to board when I get a text it's from Logan.
goodbye Rory I will miss, you good luck with all your endeavours and maybe when it's time for us we will met again xxx*
What does that mean? I'm confused that text is full of emotion and we were just casual.
I try to call him but only get his voicemail I don't leave a message. I then call Steph she would still be in the car with him.
"Hey why you calling already?" She says and I know she is being cryptic to keep it from him that it's me.
"Is he there? Did he turn his phone off?"
"Yes and yes. It's not going very well" she says to me.
"We are just casual that's what he wanted, why is he sending me a text that reads like I won't see him for years?" I ask her
"Because you probably won't, they won't be around when you are here" she replies
"How long till you can talk properly?" I ask her
"About 10 minutes, I will call you back let me text me if it is no longer able to be facilitated" she says and we hang up.
He's taking it badly? Was there more to what we had then I realised? Was I losing him?
I sat there think about all the possibilities I look at the time still 45 mins till the flight leaves so boarding will be in about 15 minutes.
5 minutes later my phone rings.
"What's going on Steph?" What was with his text tell me" I say to her
"He won't be here in the summer and you won't see him again unless by chance. He is hurting, he was falling for you and now he needs to take time to heal. He is hitting the bottle right now, the boys are trying to pull him out but I think you may have just had your first case of a man falling for you Ms Gilmore-Hayden" she says to me and my heart breaks I have hurt him and with that not seeing him when I get back will hurt me.
"Your speaking to Rory" I hear in the background from Logan. "Why?" He asked in a drunk tone.
"I'm speaking to her because you sent her a text before she flew out of the country and now she is going crazy because of it you are so clueless sometimes Huntzberger" she yells at him.
"I will let you go Steph my flight is boarding now. I will call you when I can and send emails make sure you have a pool party organised for when I'm due back at my mom and dads I'm going to need it" I tell her "love you and tell the girls I love them too. And tell Finn and Colin to look after him please" I say and end the phone call.
The flight is now boarding thank god my parents got me first class.
I take my seat on the flight and head off for Switzerland and my new home until summer.
So I don't think any of us expected that but things can't be easy we know that. Keep reading to find out more
