Logan's POV
We enter the lounge and Lorelai and Chris are already seated. Rory leads us around and we take a seat.
"Mom, Dad I would like to introduce you properly to my boyfriend Logan Huntzberger, these are my parents Christopher Hayden and Lorelai Gilmore-Hayden" she says trying to do the right thing.
"Mr Hayden, Mrs Gilmore-Hayden it's a pleasure to finally meet you officially" I say while shaking their hands.
"Who would like a drink" Lorelai asks
"Vodka martini please mom" Rory asks
"Rory" her dad says
"Dad it's not like I haven't drank before" she says
"It's just one Chris" her mom says
"Logan what would you like to drink?" Lorelai ask me.
"Scotch neat if you don't mind" I ask and I see her Dad glare at me.
"So Logan what are you studying in college?" Her Dad asks me.
"I am majoring in business with a minor in journalism" I say answering his question.
"And how are you planning on using that degree" he continues as Lorelai hands me my drink and Rory hers.
"I will be going into the family business. My dad is the CEO of Huntzberger Publishing Group and I am expected to step up to that in the future" I tell him trying to put him at ease of what my future holds for me.
"So if you have a journalism minor you have to be on the college paper yeah?" He ask
"Yes I am, I write some but not as much as I would like" I say
We finish our drinks and the maid calls to us that dinner is ready. We head into the dining room and I take a seat opposite Rory with her parents on both ends.
"So Logan how was your first year at Yale?" Lorelai asks trying to make polite conversation.
"It was ok, to be honest I haven't been myself for the last 18 months" I say and I look straight at Rory and she has a sad smile on her face.
"Why is that?" Chris asks.
"I think that would have been pretty obvious" I reply, Lorelai nods in understanding but Chris still looks at me confused.
"It was when you sent Rory off to boarding school, that along with her telling me to move on broke me and the fact I would only see her for short amounts of time I couldn't do it to myself. So I shut her and everyone else out, ask my friends if you don't believe me or my father he had to pull me out of a drunken stupor about a week after Rory left. It was then during that time that I realised that I had fallen in love with your daughter even though we had agreed to a casual relationship. Please don't get angry at me or Rory I would prefer to be honest with you then lie and scheme to get you to like me. Your daughter was always more to me then just some other girl I should have known that right from our first kiss at Richard and Emily's Christmas party, it was and has always been electric" I finished and hope to not have her parents ready to attack me verbally or physically.
"Well that's a lot of information to take in" Lorelai said and I continued to eat my dinner in front of me. I took a look at Rory and I can see some tears rolling down her cheek. "Don't cry babe it's all right now we are here and we got through it all" I say to her across the table and Chris just looks at me trying to figure me out but not having much luck.
Soon dinner is cleared up and We all rise for coffee in the lounge when chris asks to speak to me alone in his study. I follow him and await my fate.
"Ok Logan it's just you and me now please just tell me the truth, why do you like my little girl?" He asks and I just look at him dumbfounded.
"With all due respect sir she isn't a little girl anymore she is an amazing, bright, talented, charming and beautiful young woman that I love with all my heart and won't give up on" I say to him.
"Well then I guess I will just have to give you time to prove me wrong" he says and I look up at him in shock.
"Are you being serious sir" I ask
"Yes and Logan call me chris" he says
"Alright chris lets go back to our ladies" I say and we walk out of the study.
We sit and enjoy our coffee then Rory and I head upstairs to relax for the evening.
"What did dad say in the study?" She asks me
"Just the usual dad stuff but I think I may have kind of won him over, I just have to prove him wrong now and he told me to call him chris" I tell her.
"Are you for real my dad actually mellowed out" she says in shock.
"Yeah I guess, hey can we have dinner with my family tomorrow night? I want to do the same offical thing with them" I ask her
"Sure Logan, its fine how bad could it go compares to tonight?" She asks
"I don't know depends on grandpa" I say
"Well we will cross that bridge tomorrow right now I want you" she says and pulls me into her arms and onto the bed and we lose ourselves and enjoy a love making session of passion.
We got dressed in pjs and curled up in bed watching Dawson's creek on DVD. After a couple of episodes there was a knock at the door.
"Come in" Rory says
"Hey kids just saying night" Lorelai says
"Night mom" she says
"Night Lorelai and thanks for your help with everything" I say
"Your welcome Logan just don't hurt our girl and you will be fine" she says as she closes the door behind her.
We watch another couple of episodes and then go to sleep ourselves as the gang was coming over the next day to enjoy some time together before we leave for Europe in 5 days.
I awake in the morning to find the room empty so I get up and put a t shirt on with my shorts and head down to the dining room hoping to find Rory there. I walk in and see Rory siting there with her parents talking and eating.
"Morning sleepy head" Lorelai says
"Morning" I say and take a seat and grab a cup of coffee.
I look up and see a plate put in front of me and there is so much food.
"Is this all for me?" I ask jokingly
"Eat what you can" Rory tells me smiling and I tuck into my food. Damn they have a good chef i think.
"What time are the gang getting here?" I ask her as I look at my watch seeing it's already 930.
"I told the 11" she lets me know. I finish up and we head back upstairs.
"I have to call mom and Honour to organise dinner tonight" I tell her as we get to her room I reach for my phone and first call Honour.
"Hey baby brother, why are you calling and not coming down the hall?" She asks me.
"Because I'm not at home" I say
"What girls place are you at now?" She asks me
"I'm at Rory's, I spent the night anyways off that topic right now are you free for family dinner tonight?" I ask her getting onto my task.
"Yeah of course, something you want to discuss with us all?" She ask "yeah something like that I'm calling mom after you" I say "ok we'll see you tonight then and say hi to Rory for me" she says "will do hon" I say and hang up. I then call mom on the home phone
"Hey mom" I say
"Logan honey, where are you?" She asks
"At a friends mom, I just wanted to organise a family dinner tonight and I'm bringing a guest and Honour will be there too" I say
"That's fine darling, be here by 630 for drinks and dinner at 7" she says and hangs up.
"So how did that go?" Rory asks
"All organised" I say and I walk over and kiss her.
"As much as it would be great to spend the day in bed with you we have guests coming over" she reminds me as she gets undressed and heads into the bathroom to shower. I strip down too and make my way in there.
An hour later we are washed and dressed in our bathers and head down stairs just as the bell goes. "Good timing" I say as the maid answers the door and all the gang rolled in.
"Lets hit the pool" Rory says and we head out and swim and the girls tan for hours.
"Hey Logan, we need to head in a get ready for dinner" Rory tells me at 5pm as she gets up and says bye to the girls and the guys.
We spend the next hour showering, getting dressed and Rory doing her hair and make up.
"Ror you look amazing" I say seeing her wearing an amazing little black dress and she grabs a light coat and her overnight bag in case she stays the night.
"Mom we are off to dinner at Logan's I might be home I might not be" she yells as we leave the house and get into my car. I drive us there and park, we leave her bag just in case it doesn't go too well.
Rory's POV
We arrive at Logan's and I hop out of the car and look at his home. It's massive bigger then grandma and grandpa's.
"Logan are you sure?" I ask in a scared tone.
"Yes Rory it will be fine" he tells me as he lets us straight in and leads me through to the formal lounge.
"Hey mom, grandpa, Honour" he says "where is dad?" He asks
"In his study on a call" Shira says
We take a seat and Logan grabs us drinks. Just as his dad comes out of the study.
"Logan when did you get here?" He asks
"A couple of minutes ago dad just getting me and Rory a drink" he says as he comes back to me and hands me a glass I go to protest and he whispers "It's just clubs soda babe".
"That's alright then" he says and takes a seat.
"So who is this young lady" he asks and I'm shocked it's only been a year and a half and he can't remember me.
"Mom, dad, pop, Honour I would officially like to introduce you to my girlfriend Rory Gilmore-Hayden" he says
"Oh Rory of course we meet at your grandparents Christmas party over a year ago but You look different more mature" Mitchum says
"Thank you Mitchum, it has been a while" I say.
"So when did you two get together?" Shira asks us.
"Well we have been offical for 3 weeks now but we're seeing each other before her parents sent her away to boarding school in Switzerland but it was good for her, she graduated a year early and valedictorian too" Logan told them.
"Well done Rory that's quite an accomplishment, you must be Yale bound if Richard has any say in it" Mitchum says
"Why thank you it was hard work but so worth it" I say.
"What do you want to do Rory" his grandpa says.
"I want to be a journalist" I say
"Hmmph" he says
"Dad be nice" Mitchum says
"No what's wrong with Rory or her dream of journalism?" Logan asks
"You think this is a serious relationship? You should know what is expected of you Logan. What the family needs of you" he says
"Rory is not made for it Logan" Shira say
"I can't believe this" he says
"What is it Logan?" I ask him
"Pop and mom don't think your good enough"
"Not good enough I come from two of the strongest and oldest families in Hartford" I say "My parents may have made mistakes young but they have made up for it" I add in their defence.
"Mom, dad, pop if Logan is happy then we shouldn't disagree we should let him be happy" Honour says in our defence.
"Ok cut it out now all of you" Mitchum says
"Rory I'm sorry for what my family has said tonight" he adds.
"Don't worry dad I didn't expect anything better, we are leaving now if you wish to find me up until I leave for Europe I will be at Rory's" he says as we rise from our seat and we move off towards the exit.
"Logan, come back here" Mitchum calls as we exit the door we get back into his car and he drives off towards my place.
"Logan are you ok" I ask
"I can't believe them...wait no I can, it's typical Huntzberger if they don't set me up then she isn't good enough damn them" he says and we get back to my place and head back inside.
"That was a quick dinner sweets" mom says
"Don't ask" I call as we head straight up stairs.
"Logan talk to me your not thinking of ending us are you?" I ask scared that he is re thinking us.
"No way I'm with you as long as you will have me" he says and I let him wrap his arms around me and just relax into his warm embrace. We order Chinese and what some movies before going to sleep.
There are the two dinners and both very different. Lets see what happens in their future.
