AU: Finn is Rory's half older brother on Chris' side, Chris was 20 not 16 when Rory was born and already had a son with Finn's mother. However, Chris is with neither one of the mothers, and Finn's mother is married and has a child with him. Lorelai is still single and living in Stars Hollow. Rory chose to go to Harvard not Yale so she could be with her boyfriend Tristan however things are about to change.

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

Finn, Colin and Logan were all sitting in the pub drinking, scoping the room for women they could easily take home. Logan had spotted a blonde at the bar and excused himself to go and talk to her; he turned on the Huntzburger charm and approached her. Colin after striking out twice had decided to drown his sorrows in a row of vodka shots and now had his head resting on the table mumbling about how he was just as desirable as Logan and Finn. Finn had just spotted a redhead when his phone began to ring.

"Hello"

"Finn is Lorelai you have to come to Boston quickly Rory's in hospital"

Silence

"What? How? Why?

"Just come!"

Finn heard the dialling tone as Lorelai had hung up, he had an awful sinking feeling in his stomach, he nudged Colin and said that he needed to go, Colin asked why but Finn just muttered something about family emergency. Finn left the pub and went out into the cold night air, teas were pricking his eyes threatening to fall, and he rung a cab he didn't mind how much it cost he just had to get there.

Finn had entered the hospital, his eyes daring back and forth looking for someone familiar, he searched for his phone but realised he had let it in the pub, by now his was getting frantic where was Lorelai and what was wrong with Rory. Finn sped to the desk and asked about her, she was in the intensive care unit on the second floor. After the longest lift ride of his life he stepped out onto the ward, he could see Lorelai on the opposite side of the room sitting next to a bed where a very lifeless body lay. Finn all but ran to her, looking at Lorelai's puffy eyes he could see she had been crying. They sat there in silence both not moving jut looking at Rory.

A whisper escaped his lips "What happened?"

Lorelai turned and just said one word which needed no explanation "Tristan"

Finn paled as he turned to Rory who was lying silently within the bed a dark bruise on her left cheek which spanned half of her porcelain face, he turned to Lorelai

"Where's Dad?"

"His girlfriends sick or something he will be here as soon as he can I'm sure" she put on a fake smile. Christopher had never been much of a Dad to either of them but he really missed out when it came to Rory, as Finn had stayed in Hartford he saw more of him, but that half an hour trip to Stars Hollow was rarely taken and they both knew stayed in the room for half an hour before a doctor came in

"Hello, I'm Rory's doctor we have the results of her tests, it seem she will be okay and make a full recovery as long as she wakes up within the next few hours, the scans show increased brain activity so the odds are on her side, however it is not a certainty.

"Oh thank god" Lorelai collapsed back into the chair, turned to the doctor and thanked him as he left the room. Finn just sighed in relief and made it his duty to wake up his little sister if it's the last thing he did. Although there was tension in the room, Lorelai knew there was more explaining to be done but that could wait until they knew she would be okay.

A couple of hours passed and both of Rory's visitors had fallen asleep, until a small voice came from the bed

"Mum, Finn, what happened?"

They both looked at each other and realised the topic was bound to come up, although Rory asked what had happened she knew, it had been happening for months but never this bad but a bruise there a cut there but nothing that landed her in an hospital bed.

"Sweetie" She turned to both Finn and Rory owing them both the explanation "Tristan I think lost his temper and he attacked you, you have a broken rib, arm and a concussion but you will be fine, once I castrate the bastard

Both of the Lorelai's turned to Finn, they had never seen him so angry the usually calm happy face had turned to one of pure rage, he turned on his heel knowing full well where he was going to go, and the shouts from the hospital room telling him not to didn't matter he needed to do this, Tristan deserved it.

"Sweetie, had Tristan done this to you before? If you don't want to talk about it then that's fine but..."

"No its fine, no it was the first time, I can't stay at Harvard now just too many bad memories, I think I'm going to transfer to Yale, closer to you closer to Finn, it's a win win situation" She laughed , but winced in pain. Lorelai stroked her head as Rory fell asleep, her baby was strong she will get through this, although she wasn't sure about Tristan after Finn was done with him

Finn arrived at the dorm room Tristan and Rory shared, he pounded on the door, Tristan opened it to Finn and before he knew it he was on the floor with one swing from Finn.

"Don't you ever come near here again or I swear to god I will kill you" he kicked Tristan and turned and walked out of the building feeling better that he had hurt Tristan. He began to walk back to the hospital. Once he arrived he told Lorelai and Rory that he didn't kill Tristan and there was no chance of him being put in prison after Rory became hysterical about how they didn't want to lose him. Before too long everyone had fallen asleep, Rory was the first to wake up.

"Hey you guys aren't the ones in the hospital bed wakey wakey the suns up come on"

Both of them stirred and looked at Rory and laughed they knew she wasn't as okay as she was coming across but they weren't going to question it just yet. Finn went out to but Rory some flowers, while Lorelai called the deans of admissions at Harvard and Yale and Rory had been successfully transferred they both were happy they had lost touch a bit when Rory went to Harvard she has Tristan and was hours away they were looking to resurface their bond. When Finn returned the both had big grins on their faces

"Oh no, last time you too had that look on your face I ended up dressed up as a girl"

They both laughed "No but that was a brilliant day, I'm coming to Yale!"

Finn just looked at her and smiled he was happy but his friends didn't know he had a sister and he knew if people found out then they would assume she was just like him and want to take advantage, he knew Rory was not a virgin anymore but he still saw her as his little sister and dint want any of the guys he knew thinking she was easy.

"That's brilliant kitten, you can move in with me, I have a spare room and that way I can keep an eye on you"

"You don't need to keep an eye on me but yes that sounds great, although what will your friends think of your little sister living with you

"They'll be fine with it they are pretty easy going and I don't think they have anything to mock so we're good to go "

Rory smiled it was a new start for her away from Harvard and more importantly Tristan.

After 5 days Rory was released from the hospital, you could still see the bruise on her face and her broken arm but other than that she was pretty much healed. Finn had gone to her old apartment and gotten all her stuff with Lorelai and they had loaded it up on Lorelai's jeep and some in Finn's SUV and then travelled back to New and Rory had just finished moving all of her stuff into her room and then they heard the door open two guys stood there, Finn had seen them first and knew it was confession time, Rory walked out of her room and recognised them from photos and smiled and said hi to the both of them.

Logan spoke first "Finn, who's that? who did this to you"

Finn turned to Rory and said guys this is my little sister Rory"

"You have a sister, how come you never told us?"

Finn couldn't bear to think how Rory's face looked "That ashamed of me are we, well screw you" she picked her bag and coat and stormed out. Finn swore under his breath he knew he had upset her big time.
