A Chance Meeting

A Familiar Place, For The Rest Of Our Lives

One Year Later...


Rory unlocked the front door to the apartment she lived in with Logan. In the past year, they'd moved into together and became stronger then ever. They were more in love then when they were in college and seemed to just fit more together. As she walked in the door, she smiled as she saw Logan in the kitchen cooking them dinner. She walked over to him, wrapping her arms around his waist.


"Hello baby." She said as she turned him around and kissed him softly.


"Ace, how was work?"


"It was good, got my article finished and ready to enjoy the weekend. Which by the way you still haven't told me what we're doing."


"Surprise's are good, you should learn to enjoy them."


"In the whole time you've know me, you still think that will happen?"


"No I don't, but can always hope. Now go get changed out of your work clothes." He said as he lightly tapped her on the bottom.


She jumped slightly and moved into their bedroom, she began to undress before getting into the shower. After she had showered and changed, she made her way into the dining room where Logan had placed the dinner on the table. She sat down across from him and smile as he began to serve up dinner for her and himself.


"So any hints at all please?"


"Alright, one hint only." Logan said as he thought for a moment, which one to give her. "You'll have to wear a blindfold." He said as she sat back down in his chair and began to eat his dinner.


"A blindfold? Aren't we a little old for them now?"


"Never too old Ace."


"Can you give me another hint?"


"No can do, I already gave you one."


"In omnia paratus, right?"


"Exactly Ace, now eat before it gets cold."


For the rest of the night, she thought over everything they've ever done together and what he could of planned. Nothing jumped out at her though, and it drove her crazy not knowing. She continued to bug him for the rest of the night before they went to sleep, to no avail he would budge to tell her anything. The next morning he told her to pack a bag, but with her not knowing she didn't know what to pack for.


"You have to tell me something Logan, I can't pack anything if I don't know." She said getting very frustrated at how secretive he was being about it all.


"In Omnia Paratus, remember Ace."


"Being 'Ready for anything' isn't helping the cause of knowing what to pack."


"Pack for anything, anywhere you think we may be going, that's what you pack for." Logan said as he zipped up his own bag and walked out to sit it by the front door. "Hurry up Ace, we have to get going."


"Yeah yeah, I'm trying." She said as she began to throw whatever she could find into her bag.


"Don't forget the blindfold Ace."


"I'll put it on in the car." She said as she zipped up her bag and walked over to where Logan was standing at the front door.


"Your finally ready, and almost on time too. Only fifteen minutes late, think it's a new record for you Ace." He said with a chuckle and picked up both the bags and walked out the door.


Rory locked the door behind them and followed him to the elevator as they made their way down to the car. As they got in, Logan phone rang.


"Huntzberger, Yeah, we're leaving now. Okay bye." He said into the phone before hanging up again.
