Sorry for the delay guys but it's going to be worth the wait. The long awaited past in which Logan made a fool of himself is here. I hope you like any more suggestions are welcome. Please review the story and any feedback is appreciated.
Six months after Rory's graduation-
It had been almost six months since he had seen her, when she had given him back the ring and he had walked away from her rather than give a long-distance relationship another shot. He still didn't know what he had done is right or not. For a long time he thought it was right.
Her refusal stung like a dagger to his heart, even thought of it was like another dagger piercing his heart in and out. The most painful thing is answering a door bell or a phone call, praying and hoping to be her. And every time it was the same disappointment and hurt of another dagger in and out. He couldn't bear it anymore and his hurt pride started to fade.
His sister told him that with time it would get better. But it seems like Honor is wrong(Since she is the only one on his side) the piercing of the dagger to his heart felt more painful than before and it's increasing each time. To the point he couldn't bear it anymore.
He had tried to move on, he had dated. But he is comparing every girl to his ace, no one could match her. He tried to forget forget but more longing towards his ace. That's the reason he is at this party in Hartford. He heard that the campaign trial reached Connecticut and he is sure, she would visit her family. He knew that she is attending the party at Finn's house. The party is to celebrate the success of Toy company which Finn has started.
Now he is standing near the open bar inside Finn's house searching for her. Seems like a lot of people are attending, not just from Hartford.
At last, he caught a glimpse of her, standing among a group of men and women. God, she was beautiful. Even more so in person than in his dreams he used to have every night.
He wondered if she thought of him from time to time. He wondered if she missed him like he had missed her. If she felt a longing for him, finally she is glancing at his direction.
Immediately her face glowed with a genuine smile and she waved at him and started moving towards him as if her life had depended on it. Suddenly all his fears and pain were gone. He too stood and started towards her among the crowd of people. His eyes were solely focused on her until some one from the back bounced off him and moving in his direction furiously. He was walking past that rude guy when the same guy had embraced her and gave her a full kiss on her lips. She smiled even more.
And that is moment the dagger had pierced enough to cut his heart into pieces. And the whole world collapsed near him, he is living his worst nightmare. He is losing himself and was completely lost.
He went back to his previous position and time to time glanced at the couple. He identified the guy, his name is Tristan. They used to hangout together in his childhood with his friends even though he is two years younger than him. And it looks like she likes him a lot. To make matters more worse Colin and Finn had joined the couple. Seemed like Colin and Finn filled the third spot left by him after-all.
Maybe what his father said is coming true after-all. 'Logan Huntzberger you are not good enough'. He is not a good enough son, good enough friend, good enough business man and not a good enough lover and boyfriend. And maybe not enough to live.
He drank and drank trying to numb the pain coursing through each and every cell of his body. It didn't stop so he drank more. He don't know how much time he spent at the bar but it didn't matter to him anymore. His life is almost over, the only few things to live for are his job and his sister. But they didn't seem enough anymore.
A voice woke from his drunken stupor, "Hi Logan. "
It's his ace, not his anymore. He acknowledged her with a weak smile "Rory"
"How are you?"
He don't what came over him, but the next words out of mouth made everything more worse.
"Rory, please leave that bastard Tristan and come with me, love me, kiss me. Please. Rory will come with me?. "
She gave him a incredulous look followed by anger and she started to leave. He caught her hand forcefully "Answer me"
"Logan, please leave me, you are hurting my arm. Please .." She started screaming and pleading him.
He held her arm more strongly "answer me " he growled at her.
"No I don't want you. "
"No?" He loosened the grip when suddenly a punch landed on his face. He fell to the ground and saw Finn give a kick to his stomach and head. Then everything went blank.
He woke up alone on the pavement outside the house. They had dumped him outside to fend himself alone with a note in his pocket.
"You are lucky she didn't press charges for harassment. Get the fuck out here and never come near her again.
Tristan. " The note read.
'Highway to Hell' song was playing in the background. He smiled at the situation he is in and the song. Looks like he is the only one and no one is there for the ride with him to 'I'm on the highway to hell'.
