The light shining through the room woke Logan up the next morning, he rolled onto his back and looked towards the curtain, Rory was singing quietly to Rose and Logan could only just make out which song, he was shocked to find out it was the song playing in the restaurant on their first date. Logan moved his eyes to stare up at the ceiling and within seconds he was drifting into a daydream whilst listening to Rory sing. He thought about his life, how he could come home from work if he wanted to a wife and baby, to a happy family, to the love of his life, he shook his head and came back to reality to find Rory holding Rose and looking at him, an awkward silence was filling the room and Logan opened his mouth to speak but before he could the phone rang.

"Hello, Mother of mine" Rory answered,

"Daughter of mine, we have a small issue, your father is here, and well Babette got to him first and asked him what it's like to be a hot young Grandpa"

"Oh crap, I'll be right over"

Rory hung up and went to get dressed, getting Rose dressed as well she carried her downstairs, getting the stroller out of the store room, she made her way to her mom's house, it was always slow going walking anywhere with Rose because everybody stopped to admire how cute she was and today was no exception, Finally reaching The Crap Shack, she picked Rose out of the stroller, took a deep breath and walked into the house, on the sofa was Lorelei and Chris was pacing back and forth,

"Hey Dad" she said calmly,

"Hey dad, hey dad, is that all you have to say to me?"

"Don't yell please, Rose doesn't like yelling"

"Rose?" Chris frowned and Rory moved towards him and showed him his granddaughter,

"Rose" Chris looked at the baby and his face softened, moving closer he held his arms out and Rory passed her to him, he smiled down at the little girl and gently rubbed his fingers through her tiny amount of auburn hair, Rory and Lorelei looked at each other and sighed, maybe it wasn't going to be so bad after all.

"What's her name?"

"Lorelei Rose Honor Huntzberger" Rory smiled,

"Huntzberger? As in Logan?" Chris asked confused, he thought they had broken up,

"No Dad, Mitchum" Rory deadpanned, "Of course Logan"

Christopher handed Rose to Lorelei and gestured for Rory to follow him into the kitchen, Rory sat at the kitchen table and watched as Chris paced,

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"I didn't tell you because I have spoken to you maybe twice on the phone since I got pregnant and you haven't been to visit me once until today, what did you expect me to do, leave you a voice mail, 'oh hi dad, yeah it's me Rory, you know your daughter, yeah well I'm pregnant and its Logan's, OK bye' that would have gone down about as well as it is now, I would be happy if you didn't blame this all on me, you are unreachable on normal days, you call when you want something and you visit when something has happened or is up"

"I do not"

"When your dad died, when Sherri left you, when you needed mom to help with Gigi, when you were coerced by Emily Gilmore to break up mom and Luke" Rory listed, "I could go on, but I won't"

Chris stopped pacing abruptly, pulled the chair out and sat on it, putting his head in his hands he muttered under his breathe for a few seconds before raising his head to look at his daughter, whenever he looked at her he would see the little girl that was always so excited to see him, he would see the little girl that loved her Daddy, but looking at her now he realized she was a grown up, she had her own daughter now and she could see him for what he was a coward and a failure, shaking his thoughts from his head he called Lorelei and took Rose from her, holding her he realized he had a second chance with this little girl and he had to prove himself the best Grandpa ever. The three adults sat around the table talking and slowly Christopher got used to the idea, after Rory stood and told Lorelei and Chris that Rose had a pressing appointment with her dinner and was to have a nap.

Arriving back at the Diner, Rory carried Rose upstairs, putting Rose into the travel cot to play she went to start the coffee maker, Rory had noticed the man sitting on her sofa, moving towards the bathroom she jumped when the man spoke,

"God Colin, you almost gave me a heart attack"

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you, didn't Luke tell you I was up here?, he told me to wait up here for you"

"Must have slipped his mind"

"Well I have been sent to pick you and Rose up, we are also picking Steph up in about an hour" he said looking at his watch.

"Why where are we all going?" Rory asked

"Honor said she had texted you, she has invited everyone for dinner and has sent me to pick you up"

Rory packed a diaper bag for Rose and some other things just in case and passed them to Colin along with her car keys for him to get the car seat out of her car, Rory noticed the neatly folded pile of bedding on the sofa and sighed when she realized Logan had left whilst she had been at her mom's but put it to the back of her mind, she refused to think about her and Logan now she had Rose to think about. Rory collected Rose from her cot and followed Colin down the stairs.

The dinner at Honor's house was going wonderfully, Rose had cuddle from all her new aunts and uncles and had been content the rest of the evening, Honor was obsessed with her new niece she had already given her some small pieces of jewelry that she would never be able to wear with her being a baby and had already said she wanted to take her hopping for some cute clothes. Sitting around the dining room table everyone was very tired but they were about to get abruptly woken up when the front door slammed and Shira Huntzberger's voice resonated through the hall into the dining room.

"Honor, Honor where are you?"

Everyone in the dining room scrambled and Honor passed Rose to Rory and Rory hid in the corner behind a large decorative couch that Colin, Logan and Finn sat on and pretended to be having a conversation. Shira waltzed in and saw everyone there she pulled Honor into the other room and spoke to her briefly before she left. Honor walked back in and sighed in relief that her mother was gone and that she hadn't seen Rory or more importantly Rose.
