November 26th
Lorelai knocks on the six doors of the rooms for the group to wake them up
"Morning everyone, Time for breakfast before we start to move," Finn says cheerily
"Finn, slow down your scaring me, Your #1 up and cheery and #2 it's daylight and your not trying to hide from the sun," Colin says jokingly
"Mate, Today will be a busy day, We have to pack the truck and unpack it at the other end plus help unpack the boxes," Finn says
"If she has many books and stuff as she did in college we have our work cut out for us," Robert says remembering the last time she moved out of Logan's apartment
"Hey... I don't have that much. This time I'm also only bringing one copy of each book, so no doubles that cut off 1/3 of the collection" Rory says laughing
"That would still leave a lot," Steph says
"No, I'm not bringing everything just what I think I will need," Rory says
"How much clothing do you have," Juliet asks
"Well. I have a closet in my bedroom, half a linen closet, 1/6th of my mom's closet and a full closet at my grandmother's" Rory says
"Almost sounds like it could rival my own" Rosemary says
"That's clothing, shoes, and accessories and most of the closets are small," Rory says
"Typical girl, having a lot of clothing and shoes," Robert says mockingly
"Shut up; I have less than you I can guarantee, I also have fit in the same close since I was 15," Rory says
"Ouch touché," Robert says
"Let's get going, Remember anything that says clothing, shoes, closet or accessories goes in the truck last so it can be unloaded first and we can unpack my closet while you unload the trust," Rory says
"Yes Boss," Colin says
Over the next 2 hour's the guys filled the truck while the girls pack up the last bit of the things Rory is bringing to New York, they also did a bit of goofing around and some more eating. After the long drive to New York, It seemed much easier to unpack the truck and unpack the boxes and set the room it, but in reality, it actually took 30 minutes to clear the truck then another hour just to arrange the room, unpack the closet and make the bedroom livable. Next task was bedding and bathroom shopping.
"Love, I think we need to find you a dress to wear for the wedding," Finn says
"I agree, You have to look fabulous" Juliet says
"Make every man jealous your escorted by Finn," Colin says
"I guess when we are bedding and bathroom accessories shopping we can also do dress shopping if you boys don't mind," Rory says
"Love, You know we would be more than happy to help watch you try on anything to find a fabulous outfit to make the boys drool, and we are the best judges knowing exactly what makes boys drool," Finn says
"Ya what he said, I could watch you try on 100 outfits if you needed just to get the right outfit," Robert says
"Oh you boys are such flirt's," Rory says with a giggle
"They speak the truth, you know they have excellent taste in women's clothing, Shoes, and Jewelry for three straight men," Steph says
"Yes, I know. Finn helped me pick out a lot of clothing and shoes when we were traveling Europe" Rory says
"Oh he took you on a few shopping spree's, That's a new thing for him," Juliet says
"He goes on shopping sprees all the time, this is the man who bought 6 of the same suit in different colors and spent $50,000 on them in less than 5 minutes then went on to look for shoes without skipping a beat," Rory says
"We know the man can shop for himself but taking a girl on a shopping spree is something he has done for no one ever before he must care for you Rory," Steph says
"He just wants to make sure I'm taken care of it's not a big deal Like you have said before he has a soft spot for me so he may just do the unexpected now," Rory says
"It could also mean he likes you more than just as a friend," Juliet says
"Maybe, but he hasn't said anything to me, and I'm not in the position to say anything plus he's still a casual guy, and I'm not," Rory says
"I have a question for you, When was the last time he bedded a random person or anyone that you know of, When was the last time you saw him this happy" Steph asks
"I can say for sure he hadn't bedded anyone since my mom's wedding weeks ago and as for seeing him happy I think it was when he thought that one girl he was seeing was possibly his match," Rory says
"Does that seem like a guy who's having casual sex with random girls and isn't head over heels with someone?" Rosemary says
"Well no but maybe he has been talking to someone or seeing someone that we don't know about," Rory says
"Maybe but I think he's head over heels for you Rory," Steph says
"We are all aware it's not like Finn to ask someone to move in with him. Take them on shopping sprees while they travel Europe. Spend so much time with them. Move them. Take them for Dinner and Dancing. Have a movie night in. Cook for her and not be having sex with her for him to think he would possibly want to do any of the above things" Juliet says
"Don't forget he's also not known to slow down on the drinking, going out every night, any romantic gestures, waiting longer than a day or two before giving up on getting them into bed Finn has turned into boyfriend material and I don't think he realizes it?" Rosemary says
"Maybe he just feels like it's time. Seth is married with kids. Colin and Steph are engaged. Logan's getting married. Robert isn't bedding a new girl nightly anymore either. They are in their 30's and have to slow down sometimes. You heard Finn before he's been having casual sex for 21 years" Rory says
"You know it took Colin and me over a Year to realize he was becoming boyfriend material and the only reason we realized it is because it kept being pointed out and then our siblings asked when we were going to give up the just casual dating charade and admit we were exclusive," Steph says
"How long ago was that" Rory asks
"About six years ago," Steph says
"Oh wow it's been that long already," Rory says
"Ya we started casually 14 years ago, stayed casual on and off for seven years and have been exclusive seven years now," Steph says
"We all got the shock of our life when he finally proposed. She had given up on ever getting married and was content just living together" Juliet says
After unpacking and setting up most of the room, so Rory was at least able to sleep in it without feeling like boxes were going to cave in on her. They all went shopping to see if they could find Rory the perfect outfit to wear to the wedding and to get the things she needed for her bathroom and bedding. After they had got all the bathroom and beauty supplies she needed and the bedding they all went to a few stores for her to try on some outfits.
"Love, try these on," Finn says
"Alright but I don't think they will look good," Rory says
"Love you will look beautiful in anything," Finn says
Rory tries on about ten dresses that no one can agree on and then...
"Try this dress on, it's empire waist and won't be tight around your midsection, it's also the perfect length to be worn for multiple occasions," Robert says
"Ok, this is the last dress I'm trying on before I need food again," Rory says
Rory tries on the dress Robert suggested and walks out of the change room and does a twirl for everyone, She has a smile on her face.
"So, what do you all think," Rory asks
"WOW," Robert says after his jaw drops
"Love, That's the dress, It's perfect, It's sexy but classy, It can be dressed up or down," Finn says
"Rory, That is your dress, every man will drool in your presence," Steph says
"Thank you," Rory says
"Now we just need to find the perfect shoes and accessories," Finn says
The dress was a dark blue chiffon floor length empire waist gown with spaghetti straps, Finn found a pair of White Christian Louboutin high heels with crystals, Pear-shaped drop diamond earrings, a diamond bracelet, a tiffany's "Return to love" stamped ring for her right ring finger, a Blue teardrop diamond pendant necklace, a white gold and a diamond infinity ring for Rory's right ring finger (All pictured above). They also bought Rory a dress to wear when the girls went our dancing while the guys went to the bachelor party the night before the wedding. After they finished shopping Finn and Rory went home to do some more with her room, and everyone else went to their homes to prepare for their next day's events.
That night When Finn and Rory were finally alone
"Finn you didn't have to buy me all this stuff I could have borrowed jewelry from Emily and worn a dress and shoes from my closet," Rory says
"Love, I know I didn't need to buy it all for you, but I want you to look and feel fabulous at the wedding, I want Logan to realize how much of a fool he is and make the men want to be me, and the women want to be you," Finn says
"You know the girls think you're head over heels in love with me you know," Rory says
"I think they have hopes that we will end up together, They know how I felt about you when we first met," Finn says
"How do you feel about me now," Rory asks
"I still find you every bit as beautiful as the day I met you, and I do care very deeply about you, and I am very much attracted to you," Finn says
"Thank you, Finn, I am very much attracted to you also," Rory says
Rory gets up on her tippy toes to hug Finn, and he lowers himself, he puts his arms around her waist. She puts her arms around his neck, and they lock eyes. He kisses Rory on the lips, and she licks his lip to ask for entrance, and he allows it. They deepen the kiss and don't pull apart till they need air, they keep passionately making out. He pulls her closer and lifts her off the ground, she wraps her legs around his waist and has her hands under his shirt scratching at his back. He walks over towards the couch and leans her back, and he's kissing her and hovering over her body moving his hands all over her body. He keeps moving his kisses down her jaw line to her neck then collarbone she lets out a soft moan, and he stops himself. He can't go any further he isn't ready to be with Rory that intimately and it shocks him he's never stopped himself before, He realizes he has never felt like this for anyone ever.
"Love, I'm sorry. I can't let us go any further right now, We need more time and to figure things out more before we cross that bridge" Finn says
"I understand, it's better we do not go further now till things are figured out more. I think we should go to bed before we are tempted, But Finn I have to say I don't want to stop but I respect your decision" Rory says
