A Different Life

Relationship

One morning in February, Rory was standing in line at the coffee cart when Logan walked up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. "Hey!"

"Hi" Logan said and kissed her.

"How'd you know I was here?"

"You're always here"

"It's the best coffee on campus"

Logan chuckled. "You got plans tonight?"

"Not really"

"You wanna come over?" Logan asked. "I know for a fact that Finn won't be around tonight"

"Where's he gonna be?"

"I tell you we have the place to ourselves and your first thought is where Finn's gonna be?"

Rory chuckled. "That was definitely not my first thought, it was just the first one that I can say out loud in a public place"

Logan chuckled and kissed her cheek. "What's your last class today?"

"Not a class but I'll probably be at the paper until around 6" Rory said. "I have to finish my article before Doyle loses his mind"

"I hate that guy"

"You only hate him because you hate the paper"

"And I only hate the paper because I'm forced to be on it" Logan said. "It's balance"

"How is that balance?"

"I don't know" Logan said. Rory chuckled. "Alright, I gotta go"

"You're not getting coffee?"

"No, I just saw you and wanted to come say hi" Logan said. "I have a class but I'll see you later?"

"Yeah, you'll see me later"

"Alright" Logan said and kissed her quickly. "I love you"

"Love you too"

"And your coffee's on me" Logan said. He put a 5 dollar bill in Rory's hand and walked away before she could argue.

"Logan!"

Later that day, Rory stopped by her dorm after class to change before going over to Logan's. Just as she was walking into her bedroom, Logan called her. "Hey, what's up?"

"You're not on your way yet, are you?" Logan asked.

"No, not yet. Why?"

"I'm not there" Logan said. "I got stuck in traffic"

"Traffic going where?"

"I went to help Honor with something, I'm on my way back" Logan said. "I'll swing by and pick you up in about half an hour?"

"Ok"

"Alright, see you soon"

"Bye"

About 25 minutes later, Logan knocked on Rory's door and Cassie opened it to see him standing there with a bouquet of flowers. "You know, I think I can count on one hand the amount of times you've come over here without flowers"

"As long as it's making Rory happy, I'm gonna keep buying them"

"Do you have a brother?"

"I do not" Logan chuckled. "Rory?"

"In her room" Cassie said

"Thanks" Logan said and walked over to knock on Rory's bedroom door before slowly opening it. "Hey"

"Hey!" Rory said and kissed him quickly. "I just need a minute"

"What is all this?" Logan asked as he handed Rory the flowers. He looked at Rory's bed which was covered in newspapers.
