An: Hey all you out there, this is another long oneshot based off what happened to a friend of mine. It's a Rogan of course and it involves all the best people. takes place after season 7. So enjoy and review!
"I hate Vegas; it should be eaten by aliens from Independence Day or buried under freezing weather like the day after tomorrow. Better yet, let's just blow it up and be gone with it and extract all the foreigners that come from Australia. I'll get you deported if it's the last thing I do Morgan" I yell at Finn walking to the Las Vegas courthouse.
"Mate, do you get the impression that love is slightly angry at me?" He questions the blonde walking behind me.
"They could revoke his visa" he adds and Colin chuckles.
"Whatever you want to say McCrea just come out and say it jerk" I snap at him.
"I was think poetic justice" he smirks at me and Logan slaps the back of his head.
"Thanks" I say softly as we enter the courtroom.
"We have a one clock appointment" Logan tells the flighty clerk.
"Sign in here and you're in room 2" she say flirty with Logan.
"You know he's still married" I snap at her and the boys look at me. "What" I add looking at them and they all shake their heads knowing not to push me.
"I don't see how she could be snapping at the girl for hitting on mate and want this annulled" I hear Finn say to Colin.
"What the hell are you all doing here" I bark seeing the girls there as we enter the courtroom.
"We came to stop you" Steph says and I look at Logan.
"Good luck on that one" I snap walking to the front and sitting down.
"We decided it ended two weeks ago Steph that was our choice. One intoxicating night in Vegas can't change the fact that she doesn't want to be with me. The faster it's over for her the better" I hear Logan say with a disappointed tone to his voice. He comes to sit next to me and luckily we don't have to wait long for the judge to come in.
"It states here that you want an annulment, is that correct" he says as Logan and I both stand. We have barely looked at one another since waking up naked yesterday morning.
"Yes your honor" Logan says.
"And this, you signed this license" he continues holding up the marriage license that I screamed out yesterday morning.
"Under the influence, I assure you" I tell him angry and Logan glances at me.
"She's right, we were celebrating a friends' birthday and was quite intoxicated your honor" he says being a perfect society boy he was raised to be.
"That may be the case, however, I rather see the video before placing a decision on this" he states and we look at one another.
"Video" we sneer at Finn whose smirking at us.
VIDEO
"RG" Steph yells as Logan has me pinned to the wall at the chapel.
"Kind of busy Steph" I giggle as he nibbles on my neck. We have been like this since we left the casino.
"I say, we did come here for a wedding not a groping feast mate, are you going to marry her or not" Finn says. (This is where I realize he was videotaping it)
"What do say Ace, marry me" Logan says trying to kneel down in front of me but stumbles and takes me down with him. "Never mind, I like this position better" Logan smirks as I'm straddling him on the floor.
"Not if you can't kneel correctly Huntzberger" I giggle as Steph helps me up.
"I can kneel perfectly fine Gilmore, can you answer correctly this time" he counters getting up and kneeling on one knee.
"What was the question again" I laugh at him.
"Marry him" the gang yells and I look up at the camera.
"What do you say Finny, should I put the boy out of his misery and marry him?" I question.
"Love, it's your choice, but if love him there shouldn't be anything else you want love. With love anything is possible; you just have to believe in it" Finn states being the voice of reason.
"Do you love me" I question a kneeling Logan who's other hand is rubbing up my leg that is exposed in my tight short white dress.
"I don't know much Ace, but I know that I love you and want to spend my life with you" he says seriously.
"I'm sorry" I say bending down in front of him.
"You're not saying no again are you, but honestly I think I'm going to hit you if you do" he smirks.
"I'm sorry for not saying yes the first time. I'm sorry that it took us being dragged her but everything for be to realize it. I'm sorry that we had to get drunk, have secretive sex in Colin's room to make me see that you're the only man I want to have crazy wedding sex with" I smirk at him.
"When was that and where were we?" Colin demands. "Casino earlier" Logan says not taking his eyes off me.
"So is that a yes Ace" he questions pulling me closer.
"Do I get a ring" I smile at him.
"Two" he says as Colin hands him a blue box. (I glance at my left hand where the two rings seat. One is my engagement ring that he proposed with two weeks earlier and the other is a full diamond eternity band as my wedding band. It's what I wanted when I saw it in London over a year ago)
"Now what girl could refuse that" I smirk as he stands up and kisses me.
"I love you" he says and I'm crying. "I love you too" I say and he kisses me harder.
"Finally" everyone yells.
The judge shuts the video off and looks at us. I can't look at Logan, I'm staring down at my hands, I'm twisting my rings on my finger. They do say alcohol brings out the truth.
"So, the two of you still want that annulment?" he questions and I look up at Logan who is staring at me. "Your honor, they dated previously for three years and he already proposed two weeks ago. That should be taken into account" Colin states standing up and we both look at him.
"And you are?" the judge questions.
"Colin McCrea" he states.
"Andrew's son?" he replies and Colin nods.
"And is Mr. McCrea right?" the judge questioned us. Logan and I both nod. "I will take it as you said no since you're sitting here now. But watching that tape, it's quite obvious to me that you're both still very much in love with the other" he says and I close my eyes.
"You're 22 correct" he questions me and I look at him.
"Yes sir" I state looking at him.
"You both graduated from college, therefore you know right from wrong and aren't stupid" he says and I look at Logan.
"I asked, she said no. I was ready to spend the rest of my life with her and she wasn't. It's that's simple" Logan states looking away from me.
"Were you ready at 22?" he questions Logan and I can't help but smirk.
"Yeah right, he couldn't even keep track of the girls names that he slept with correct for more than 24 hours" I laugh and Logan looks at me furious.
"This coming from the girl who slept with her married ex boyfriend" he counters and I want to slap him
"Mister I jumped off a cliff after partying too much, just because I'm a spoiled pompous jerk" I yell standing up.
"Miss I can't make a decision without my mommy. Was it Lorelai who told you not to marry me Ace" he yells back standing up too.
"Enough" the judge states slamming his mallet on the desk and I sit down pissed off at him.
"Can I say something?" Finn and Colin questions together and standing up.
"No" Logan and I bark at them.
"Please before I hold both of them in contempt" the judge tells them.
"Logan and I have been friends for over 15 years and Rory is right at 22 he wasn't ready for any type of commitment including marriage. The boy never had a serious relationship until he met Rory" Colin begins.
"We all thought it was a phrase mate, that she would be like every other girl that crossed his path, but we were wrong" Finn adds.
"She never took any of this crap sir, or any of ours either. She made him work for her. She made him work to show her that he was more than a bottomless wallet and prominent last name. She didn't care that he was from money or came from the world that her mother escaped. She was the first one to see Logan for himself" Colin says walking to us.
"It was then we bet on how long they would last, a good girl like love with king of the playboys; as you can witness we were all bloody wrong, lost a ton of money on them. They stood up against everything and everyone including his family and succeeded. Sure they weren't perfect, but they gave us all hope in finding that" Finn says.
"When she dropped out of Yale, it scared him more than he let on. He hated that it was father that made his girlfriend think that she wasn't good enough. He was fuming when he came back to the dorm. Yelling and cursing his father out, but he knew that he needed to step up and be there for her. A new role that he never had been, he once again proved us wrong" Colin says.
"Then her ex showed up and he went jealous dragon on her mate, yelling and hating that he was there. He walked away from her and hated himself. He slipped into this state of none feeling mate and his old ways thinking that he lost her forever" Finn states.
"He broke up with me through his sister" I add.
"That was because I thought the fight was the end how the hell was I supposed to know it was giving us space, I and no idea what I was doing" Logan adds looking at me.
"But then he did something we never expected, he pulled everything he had to get her back" Steph says interjecting and I look at her.
"Begged for forgiveness and she didn't give it to him easily. He once again worked for it. It was when he saved her ass at the paper that she let go of the anger and forgave him" Rosemary continues the story for the judge.
"They were inseparable from that point on, so in love that it was sick to us, hell they even lived together but he was happy and we supported that" Colin stated.
"Then he blew it yet again when he never told her about what happened and she stormed out of his sister's wedding" Finn adds. "She may have not forgiven him at first, but when he got hurt, she refused to leave his side until he woke up. Bloody hell mate, we couldn't even get her eat or drink coffee no matter what we did. She bloody loves you and then you left here. We were all there watching her fall apart while you were in London" Finn says and I cover my face.
"What" Logan says surprised and I hate the guys now.
"She was depressed man, you left and she was alone. I can't even tell you how many nights Steph stayed with her at the apartment because she was a mess. She lied to you so that you would be okay in London" Colin tells him. "Ace" Logan says concerned and upset about what he learned and I stand up because I have had enough of this.
"Your honor, this has nothing to do with this annulment so we were in a relationship, it was up and down like any relationship is. We have a block in communication ever since he blew off my best friend's baby shower to come here with dumb and dumber. He chose them over me. We never discussed marriage because every marriage around us fails, that's the society we live in. I didn't want to ruin what we had but he wanted more without seeing my fear. But the button line is that he wanted all or nothing while I stood behind him while he went to London. Yes, I was depressed and hide it from him but I never once made him choice between me and his career. He became the man he is now because of that, because he had me standing behind him and I got it blown up in my face when he gave me that ultimatum. He's going to San Francisco for work while I'm blacklisted from every publication because I was going to become the next Mrs. Huntzberger and work for HPG, but when I told him I couldn't marry him two weeks ago, his father made certain that I will never hold a journalist job in this country. Logan wanted it his way and that's it and never seen what his actions did to people around him including me. This has nothing to do with whether or not I love him or how much I love the idea of being his wife, but I need time to find out who I am, just like I did for him, but he couldn't. So I can't" I state and the room is quiet.
"Then I grant you your annulment Ms Gilmore. It takes more than love to make a marriage work. You need to know what the person besides you want before they do. You need to be able to communicate your problems and deal with them as one. Case close" he says hitting the mallet down once more. I pull my rings off and place them on the table before walking away from him and all our friends.
