When they arrive at the apartment Logan picks Rory up and carries her over the threshold. "What are you doing I thought this wedding was for business purposes only?" Rory questions sadly.
Logan sits her down on the couch and kneels in front of her. "Ace, the rest of the world can believe that but I need you to know, when you and I said I do- we did. Its real Ace, I'm in this completely, we are 100 partners in every sense of the word. I'm sorry my mother managed to screw up your wedding from the grave. This isn't the wedding that either of us dreamed of. I know you did this for me completely. Rory please know that I know you've made plenty of allowances and sacrifices for me, please let me do this for you. Let me at least make our wedding night what it should be. I love you Rory Gilmore Huntzberger, if I know what love is, it is because of you, you have given me everything that is good in my life." He kisses her.
Rory smiles, she can feel her Logan with her now, she knows that their marriage won't be one sided but she definitely still needs to talk to him about some of his expectations. Now she needs to give him his wedding gift. "Honestly Logan, you'd think that you would know your own wife's name."
"Rory Huntzberger?" He asks hopefully he never thought she'd ever let go of being a Gilmore girl.
"Why the question?"
"I can't believe you dropped Gilmore."
"Why? I dropped Hayden too."
"Wait a minute I've never known you to be a Hayden?" Now Logan is confused.
"Until about 20 minutes before we left the JOP's office my legal name was:
Loreali Leigh Hayden Gilmore Huntzberger. There was no way I was going to sign that millions of times, heck even my initials looked like alphabet soup, LLHGH please. So I signed my name change before we left. For your wedding gift Logan, I am now and forever legally, Loreali Leigh Huntzberger."
"Thank you, that's just one more reason I love you Ace." Logan pulls her into his arms and kisses her so lovingly. "Will you go into our room; I'm just going to grab some champagne for us."
Rory walks into their room and stops in her tracks, dazzled by Logan's thoughtfulness. He walks in, sets down the champagne and glasses before wrapping his arms around his wife. She is silently taking in her room of roses.
Logan has roses of all colors sitting on every available surface. He
also has the bed covered in red, white, peach and pink and coral rose petals. Rory knows what he's trying to say just by their colors. She has secretly had a fascination with rose colors since she saw Stephanie holding a coral one given to her by Colin. She's since found out that red equals love, respect, peach equals appreciation or gratitude, which goes hand in hand with pink which among many things can also mean thank you. White of course is the simple for purity or innocence and coral she found out means desire.
Rory smiles, her husband is trying to tell her a million things all at once. She turns to kiss him and see's that he is down on one knee with a single red rose. She smiles and bends down to kiss him. "I love you too Logan." He smiles at her and stands up. (rose color info via the web : you know this one?" He asks as he walks to the dresser and takes two roses from neighboring vases and returns to Rory. She notices those two roses, one white and one red and he's the got the stems twisted around one another.
"No I've never seen two roses given like that. What does it mean?"
"When a red and a white rose are given together they symbolize unity. Ace it's all about us from here on out. I love you more than I can say for giving so completely of yourself. You gave me your dreams and desires and your trust. I know you are trusting in me that I will fulfill my promise to you and we will have our real wedding with all the trimmings. Ace I can't show socially how thrilled I am to be your husband. I would be highly improper to celebrate just 2 weeks after.
Ace we got married; you and I are now forever more, Mr. & Mrs. Huntzberger. I'm so happy to be your husband, so delighted to be off the market. Ace asking you to be my wife was done strictly out of love. I know it can't seem that way now considering how it went down and our conversations about the company." Logan pulled her just a little closer and kissed her nose then continued eye to eye. "Rory – yes Rory because I want you to recognize how serious I am. If our relationship didn't exist or wasn't at the place it was I never would never have gone through with any of this. I would have let them sell off the paper if I died. I would have taken it over without a partner or an heir and probably died by 30 from a heart attack. I honestly don't feel I know half the stuff I should about the daily operations of a paper to handle it. That's why I need you. Beyond the fact I need you to make my life make sense to me I need you at the paper to make sure I'm focusing on things in the paper that I need to. Rory I need you, forever, I hope you know that. This is so real, there is no pre-nup. This isn't just about the paper Ace. I need you in my life, because without you the world makes less sense to me. Without you Ace the days aren't as bright and the clouds don't seem to go away for long. This is 100 our life, our paper, our marriage and anything we need to change or tweak to make it work, we work on it together."
"Logan thank you for telling me that. I somehow knew this wasn't all about business but I'm a girl I needed to hear it. Logan I love you, I know I don't say that enough and I know it's hard for you to think outside of yourself right now so I appreciate you realizing that a woman, on her wedding night, wants to hear her husband declare his love."
"I know, I love you Ace. I married you because of how much I love you. I said everything all wrong up until tonight. I didn't tell you before our little ceremony this morning how much I wanted to be your husband and for that I'm sorry. This is about our love, not just about business. " Logan kisses Rory sweetly.
"Can your wife ask a favor on her wedding night?"
"Anything."
"It's just about us tonight. No one or nothing else."
"Absolutely. Please let me properly welcome you to the family." Logan would take Rory's face in his hands and kiss her deeply.
Before long Rory and Logan are involved in the most loving make out session they have ever had. Logan is trying to show Rory without words that his love for her is genuine. He reaches over to grab a condom and Rory interlaces her fingers with him.
"No" She says meaning towards the condom but Logan gets confused and thinks she's saying no to him on making love on their wedding night.
"Ace I know I was horrible on the whole wedding thing but you're saying we can't consummate our marriage?"
"Oh absolutely not Logan, I'm saying no to the condom. Look at your left hand, we're married which means you don't have to wear one anymore. I've been on the pill for years, you know that. Make love to your wife Mr. Huntzberger."
"I'd love to Mrs. Huntzberger."
With that Logan and Rory share the most amazing and touching night.
