Finn the Savior: Finn & Rory
A/N: Starts off when Rory breaks up with Logan At Honor's wedding. Instead of running into Doyle at the pub she runs into Finn.
Chapter 1: Rory
"God! How could I be so stupid!" I thought to myself in the back of a cab on the way back to New Haven. I had tried to call Mom but she wasn't answering. I decided to go to the pub. When I walked in I sat at the bar. I was about three drinks in when I heard a familiar voice.
"Rory?" I turned to see if I was right. Finn.
"Hi Finn."
"I thought you were in New York with Logan?" He asked taking a seat next to me.
"I was until I broke up with him." I told him finishing my drink.
"What happened?"
"He cheated on me with all of Honor's bridesmaids." I told him trying to get the bartender's attention. "Then he tried to justify reasoning."
"I'm sorry, love. He's an idiot."
"Yep. So now I have to find a new place to live." I told Finn.
"Come stay with me for a few days, while you figure everything out." He said.
I looked up at him and he smiled. I could feel the tears running down my face. I nod. He takes my hand and leads me out of the pub. The entire short ride to Finn's apartment Logan keeps calling my phone. Grr…stop calling me. When we walk into the apartment, Finn walks into his bedroom and when he comes back out he is holding a pair of sweatpants and a T-shirt. "They might be a little long." He says. Then he points to a room behind me. "Bathroom's over there." I nod and go change. My phone rings again. Logan.
I answer quickly. "What do you want?"
"Where are you?"
"Why do you care?"
"Ace, come on we were broken up." He says. There is that lame excuse again.
"Whatever Logan. I'm done. We're done." I say trying to change my clothes.
"Don't say that. I love you, Rory."
"No. If you loved me you wouldn't have cheated on me. I'll send someone to get my stuff. Goodbye Logan." I said and hung up. I finish changing my clothes and when I open the bathroom door, Finn is standing there.
"He doesn't deserve you. You know that right?" Finn said.
I wipe the tears from my face. "Well, now he doesn't have me. But he had already lost me." I said stepping out of the bathroom.
Finn followed me back to the living room as I sat on the couch. "Why is that?" he asked sitting next to me.
"Because I fell in love with someone else but I can't do anything about it." I said looking into his eyes.
"Why not?"
I felt the tears building back up. "You know why."
"Ror, we talked about this." He said.
"No! You decided. You told me to stay with him. I told you… when I told you that I loved you… I told you that I was gonna break up with him and tell him the truth." I said getting up and walking into the kitchen. I needed coffee.
"And I told you how he would react." Finn said walking up behind , grabbing me and turning me toward him. "Ror, you know I love you. If I had known that all of this was gonna happen… I would have faced the wrath." He said wrapping his arms around my waist. I looked up at him. I leaned my head up and kissed him. He tightened his grip on me and pulled me closer. God! I loved him…I loved him so much. My world felt complete when I was with him. And then came a knock on the front door. "Go wait in my office and shut the door." He said and I nodded.
FINN POV
When I heard my office door shut I went to open the front door. Logan. "Hey man what's up?" I said trying to stay calm so that he doesn't find out that she's here.
Logan walks in and starts pacing. "I've lost her." He says.
"What're you talking about?" I said even though I knew.
"Rory. She broke up with me. Honor's stupid friends were running their mouths about hooking up with me over Thanksgiving and they told Rory."
"Damn man. What are you gonna do?" I said. You need to let her go. Just let her be.
"I need to find her. She's not at the apartment, she's not with Paris, not at the pub, hell I even called Lorelai but she wouldn't tell me anything…she hates me."
Maybe she has good reason , you idiot. "Maybe you should give her some space. Let her clear her head. I mean she's got to come get clothes at some point, right?"
He nods. "Your right. I'm gonna go." Said walking towards the door. "If you hear from her…"
"Yeah I will…" I said and Logan walked out closing the door behind him.
RORY POV
I was laying on the couch in Finn's office, like I have many times before when the door opened. I looked up at him. "He's gone love." Finn said.
"It was Logan?" I asked.
"Yeah. He was looking for you." He walked over and sat beside me. "Wants me to call him if I see you." He said as I climbed into his lap straddling him.
I kiss him gently. "And are you?" I said placing my arms around his neck.
"Obviously not. I convinced him to give you some space to clear your head." He kissed my forehead.
I leaned my forehead against his. "trust me my head has never been clearer."
The next morning, I woke up wrapped in Finn's arms. I managed to unwrap myself and climbed out of bed. I walked into the living room, grabbed my cell and went to the kitchen to make coffee. I opened my cell and saw that I had 6 missed calls Stephanie. I call her back.
"Hey where are you?" she asked.
"Umm…"
"Ror, what happened?"
I walked back to the living room and sat on the couch. "Logan cheated on me with Honor's entire bridal party over Thanksgiving…and then he tried to justify it by saying that in his mind we were broken up." I tell her.
"Idiot." Stephanie says.
"Yeah. So we broke up for good this time. But it had been coming for a while. My heart wasn't in it anymore?"
"I know. Anything I can do?"
"Actually, yes. I need you to go to Logan's and pack up my stuff."
"And take it where exactly?"
"Finn's."
STEPHANIE POV
When I got off the phone with Rory, I went and got some boxes & Colin went with me over to Logan's. When he opened the door, he looked like crap. "Dude, you look terrible." Colin said.
"Gee, thanks man." Logan said moving out of the doorway so that we could come in. "What're you guys doing here?"
"Rory called me." I said. "She asked me to come and pack up her stuff."
He walked over to the couch and sat down. "I've lost her for good this time, haven't I?" he asked me.
"Yeah. I'm sorry."
"I guess it was only a matter of time." Colin and I look at each other. "She hasn't been happy for a while now."
"I'm sorry man." Colin said as he starts putting boxes together for me.
RORY POV
When I got off the phone with Stephanie, I went back into the kitchen to pour a cup of coffee. As I was about to take a drink, I felt arms wrap around my waist. I leaned my head back against his chest after I sat my cup on the counter. "Morning." I said.
Finn turned me around so that I was facing him. "Morning beautiful." He said and kissed me.
"Steph and Colin are going to pack up my stuff for me." He gave me a look. "Steph has known the whole time. Colin figured it out a few weeks ago."
"Well, at least once they get your stuff here it will all be over."
I look up at him and smile. "Finally." He leans down and kisses me again. "Coffee?" He nods.
A little while later, Finn and I take a shower and I put on the spare set of clothes that I had left the last time that I had been here. A pair of blue jeans and a Yale t-shirt. That afternoon, when Steph and Colin arrived with my stuff, it didn't take long for Colin and Finn to bring in the boxes and stack them in the spare bedroom. Steph even brought my car for me. Later that afternoon, I was in the apartment by myself when there was a knock at the front door. I figured it was Stephanie or Paris since they were the only ones that knew where I was. However, I was surprised when I opened the door. "Logan."
"Rory, what are you doing here?"
"Its complicated. Finn should be back soon." I said looking at the ground. I moved so that he could come in and not make a scene in the hallway.
"This is why you haven't been happy?"
I walked over and sat on the couch. "Part of it."
"What happened?"
"It all started last summer, when you were gone with your Dad traveling. I was missing you so I went to the pub. Finn was there alone cause Colin was with Stephanie at her parents house in the Vineyard. We drank and both realized that we needed someone to hang out with since everyone else was gone. It started out as nothing more than a friendship. But the more time that we spent together the more our feelings developed and it went from there and we fell in love." I told him. Just then the front door opened and Finn walked in.
"Hey." Finn said and I went back to looking at the floor.
"Was she here when I came by last night?" Logan asked Finn.
"Yes." Finn said.
Logan punched Finn as hard as he could and Finn fell to the floor. "Jesus! Logan leave!" I said jumping up and going to Finn's side.
"I hope you two are happy together." Logan said and walked out slamming the door behind him.
"Are you okay?" I asked Finn.
"I'll live. What happened?"
"He showed up and I thought it might have been Stephanie or Paris. I'm sorry."
He puts his hands on each side of my face. "Its not your fault." I helped Finn out of the floor.
