Chapter 12

Rory POV

When I got to Hartford, I headed straight for the house. I knew that Dad would be heading home soon and that he would take a look at the contract for me. When I got to the house, I walked into the living room, to find Mom stretched out on the couch. "Hey Mom." I said as I sat down across from her on the other couch.

"Hi sweets. What's going on?" She said.

"Well, Mitchum offered me a job." I said as Esmeralda brought me out a cup of coffee. I smiled at her.

"A job? Doing what?" She asked.

I took a drink of my coffee. "He wants me to help rebrand the publishing side of HPG. Said that if I help him rebrand it and work part time, then when Logan and I get married it'll be mine and Logan will run the media side." I tell her. "So he gave me a contract to have Dad look at."

"Wow. What's Logan say about it?" Mom asked.

"You know Logan. He thinks that Mitchum has ulterior motives." I say. Mom and I hear the front door open and close knowing that Dad was home. A minute or two later, he walks into the living room. He walks behind the couch and kisses the top of Mom's head. "Hi Dad." I say.

"Hey kiddo. You bring the contract?" He said.

"Yeah." I said, pointing to the envelope on the coffee table.

"Okay, let me change and I'll take a look at it." Dad said and I nodded.

While Dad was looking over the contract, I went up to my room and changed clothes. I looked at my phone, realizing that I hadn't heard from Logan all day. I sat on my bed, and dialed Logan's number. "Hi babe." He said when he answered.

"Hey, I walked upstairs at my parents house to my room and I realized that I hadn't heard from you all day." I said.

"Yeah, sorry it's been a busy day." He said.

"I'm sorry. Any idea when you'll be home?" I asked him.

"Hopefully tomorrow. But I won't know until I get to the office." He said.

"Your not at the office now?" I asked.

"Babe it's almost ten o'clock." Logan said.

"Sorry babe. It's been a long day. Steph and Colin got into another fight and Finn showed up at the paper wanting me to go pub crawling." I told him.

"God. At least you didn't go. What were Steph and Colin fighting about?"

I couldn't tell him that it was about his birthday. "Just some party that Steph wanted to go to and Colin didn't." I said, lying.

"Sounds like you've had an eventful day." Logan said.

"Yeah, so you'll call me tomorrow after you figure out what your day is looking like?" I asked.

"Absolutely. Love you." Logan said.

"Love you too." I said before hanging up. I headed back downstairs to see what Dad thought about the contract. Dad said that he didn't see a problem with the contract. I signed it and he said that he would fax it to Mitchum for me. I told him that I would appreciate it. I told them that as much as I loved spending time with them, that I wanted to get back to New Haven. Dad knew that I was hoping that Logan would be home tomorrow and that I wanted to be there when he did. They understood and the next thing I knew I was on the highway headed back to Yale.

When I got back to New Haven, I stopped at Hector's and picked up a bag of tacos before heading to the apartment. I walked into the apartment ready to curl up on the couch with my tacos and watch Netflix. "What're you doing here?" I asked completely surprised.
