Naughty By Nature

Chapter 11

Rory is sitting outside a coffee shop on the strip in Hollywood just enjoying her day off. She has been working so hard lately and with all the stress from Logan she is just happy to be able to relax and enjoy the day stress free and enjoy the nice weather outside as she enjoys a large cup of coffee or so she thought…. Suddenly Rory’s phone starts to vibrate and she sees its Honor calling.

“Hey Honor!” she greets with a smile happy to hear from her friend or more sisters than anything.

“Hey Ror” Honor replies trying to sound like she normally does. Rory can tell something is wrong from the tone of her voice. She instantly is thinking the worst possible scenario’s. Honor is usually chirpy when she calls and this instantly puts Rory at unease.

“Honor what's wrong? You're not sounding like yourself.” she says taking a sip of her coffee and preparing for what is to come next.

“I'm sorry to bother you, especially about this, but it’s Logan, You need to talk to him Rory he is off the hinges. Josh and I had lunch with him yesterday and when I walked into his office he was plastered. I had to wake him up before heading to the restaurant.” she sighs and rubs her temples.

“What does this have to do with me?”

“Everything, I need to tell you something and I need you to let me finish before you say anything. Can you do that for me?”

“Absolutely.”

“Ok”…. Honor takes a deep breath and starts… “ After you left…. Logan lost it, he threw himself into work and became a binge drinker. It was so bad he had to be put in rehab because he had got to the point of committing suicide. He just couldn't stand the idea of not having you in his life anymore. Mom, being herself went off on him and checked herself into a spa for the whole month of him being in the program, something about Huntzbergers are above petty problems and he needs to let you go.”

Rory waits patiently for Honor to continue not being able to believe what she is hearing...

“Yesterday, He was going off saying how sorry he was about you and I am guessing he was speaking about why you broke up. Logan was rambling to say the least, then he started talking about how he found you at the club and everything that transpired while he was there…” taking a breath she continued, “He has it in his head you deserve better and Rory weather you want to believe it or not he still loves you! I tried to explain that you are ok and happy with the family you have made. Josh, also made a slip and he figured out we have been in contact this whole time. I am scared for my brother that he is going to hurt himself or come back to where you are in California. I need you to please talk to him. He has even talked about contacting your family to have an intervention because there is no way they would let you be doing this.” Honor pleads finishing her explanation.

Rory laughs at that thought if he only knew.

Rory sits for a moment absorbing all of the information she has just been given before deciding to speak.. “ Honor, why didn't you ever tell me it was this bad…. I would have at least tried to figure out something. I mean we broke up and yes I was heartbroken but I still loved him I would not have wanted him to kill himself.”

“I didn't want to add anymore stress. You had so much going on I figured I could handle it… and in a way I did… it took professional help! I also didn't figure you would want to be involved with the circumstances that were at hand and also by that time he was dating Stephanie…”

“Oh… I understand then I wouldn't have been able to handle being around her. I had a lot happening to me when I moved here that I have never told anyone. I will speak with Logan because he doesn't need to be doing this because of me. Also, you said he still loves me how are you so sure Honor because he also said he loved me when he cheated on me both times.” she says. As she begins  remembering the past.
