A/N: I own nothing.
I'LL COVER YOU
Any man can fill his heart up with money and frivolities but only a true man chooses to fill his heart up with love instead – me
Live In My House
I'll be you Shelter
Just Pay Me Back With One Thousand
Kisses
Be My Lover
and I'll cover you
Finn sighed as he closed his eyes and tuned out everything around him. Today was possibly the hardest day of his life, for today was the day that they buried his one true love. Logan and Colin tried their best to comfort him and to let him no that he would get through this; hell Logan even offered to let him kick the crap out of Colin, but it didn't work. No matter how much they promised or reassured him that it would all be okay, he knew deep in his heart that his life was forever changed for the worst. Rory Gilmore was gone from his life for good and there was nothing he could do to bring her back. Taking in a ragged breath and exhaling quietly while trying to keep his tears at bay, Finn stood up to take the podium in the chapel.
Finn looked over at her body in the casket and couldn't help but think about how peaceful she looked. Her hair was around her face and her porcelain skin looked unharmed from the years of treatment and medication she experienced. Taking in a shaky breath as he tore his eyes away from her and looked back at the solemn crowed, he whipped his eyes and began, "I love her," Finn breathed out, "always have and always will…" This isn't right; it shouldn't be her, not now and not this way. Finn kept on thinking as he began the eulogy, "Even though I've always loved her, I particularly didn't like her in the beginning. She was always telling me that I 'should stop drinking as much and go to class more' and 'that even Logan does more than sit around and drink all day," Finn said as he scrunched up his nose imitating Rory's voice while everyone else gave a bittersweet chuckle. "Anyway….she soon became this permanent voice in the back of my head where my conscience should have been and I found myself going to class more and not drinking as much, much to my other mates dismay," Finn said looking at Seth, Colin, and Logan, "Because it made her happy. As time went on that's all I wanted to do, make Rory happy and to love her as much as I could."
Open Your Door - I'll Be Your Tenant I Think They Meant It
Don't Got Much Baggage
To Lay At Your Feet
But Sweet Kisses I've Got To Spare
I'll Be There - I'll Cover You
When They Said You Can't Buy Love
Now I Know You Can Rent It
A New Lease You Were, My Love, On Life
"I was never the boyfriend type as much of you know, but Rory made me. She loved me unconditionally and I didn't deserve her. She was a wonderful wife and lover and I know she would have been a fantastic mother to Victoria. People often say that you get one true love, one soul mate, and Rory Gilmore-Morgan was mine. She taught me to be a better man and she showed me that you can have all the money in the world but it won't mean a damn thing if you don't have someone to love."
All My Life
I've Longed To Discover
Something As True
As This Is
So With A Thousand
Sweet Kisses
I'll Cover You
If You're Cold
And You're
Lonely
You've Got One
Nickel Only
"She was not only the love of my life, but my best friend and my rock that held me up when everything around me, including her was falling down and I fear that I am nothing without her." Finn concluded as he stepped down from the podium and walked over to the coffin to place a kiss gingerly on Rory's forehead, "Good-bye Mrs. Morgan and thank you for making me the happiest man alive and I'm so sorry if I ever disappointed you love cause lord knows I didn't want too."
When you're
worn out
and Tired
When Your Heart
Has Expired
After the highly emotional funeral Finn drove back to the house he and Rory shared the last few years of her life in Stars Hallow. He put their infant daughter Victoria down for her nap and then he went and tucked his eight year old niece Annabelle into bed for her nap.
"Uncle Finny." She said with tears in her eyes.
"Yea love." Finn replied as he stroked her hair and gave her a sheepish smile.
"Auntie Rory is coming back is she?"
"No kitten, I'm afraid not."
"I'm gonna miss her cuz she was almost like my second mommy. I really loved her." The little girl said as she started to cry.
"I know, I know doll, I loved her too, very much." Finn said as he took hold of his little niece and cradled her in his arms as the both cried.
Later that night when Finn laid in bed thinking about his blue eyed girl, he couldn't help but cry when he thought that they would never banter again, or he would never again get to hold her in his arms all day long. He cried even harder when he realized that Victoria would grow up never truly knowing her mother. He sighed as he thought about all that they had been through and about the obstacles that lay ahead. "God Rory what am I going to do without you?" Finn whispered as he looked over at her beautiful smiling picture noting millions of other things that he would never see or do with her again.
