Chapter 5 Burning Question

Evening, September 18, 2011

They finished their dinner and got into the town car that was out front waiting to take them to OMNIA, his club. He texted Colin when he got in the car telling him that they will meet them there. When they arrived at the Omnia, she was surprised that he was bringing her here. The town car pulled out front and the driver opened the door for them. Taking her hand he led her to the door and they walked right in and didn't have to wait in line or show a pass.

"Finn why didn't you need to show a VIP pass to get in?"

"Because it's my club," he told her as he led her to a booth off the dance floor. Seated in the booth Rory noticed two familiar faces. She let go of Finn's hand and went running over to the booth.

"Steph, Colin, it's so good to see you both," she exclaimed, "Finn you organized this? This is the best date ever."

She turned and hugged him.

"Come sit down love and let's get some drinks."

He waved to the bartender who brought over two vodka Martinis for the girls and scotch for him and Colin. The music began to play, and she recognized the voices of the band. It was Hep Alien. Rory squealed and ran to the front of the stage and waved to Zach and Lane. Lane squealed to and hopped off the stage to see her childhood friend.

"Rory what are you doing here?" Lane asked. Just then Finn walked up behind her and put his arm around her shoulder.

"Finn, this is Lane my best friend from Stars Hollow and this is her band, Hep Alien that is playing," She said to him.

"Hi Lane, glad to meet you and I am glad your band came back to play. We have had many requests for this band. Now I am going to take this beautiful lady away while you can play some music so that we can dance."

The first song that they played was by Black Eyed Peas, "I Gotta Feeling". Zach sang lead and he sounded amazing. Rory danced and flirted with Finn. As they danced he put his hands on her waist and pulled her in close as their bodies moved against each other. Finn leaned into her ear and sang,

I gotta feeling that tonight's gonna be a good night

That tonight's gonna be a good night

That tonight's gonna be a good, good night

I gotta feeling that tonight's gonna be a good night

That tonight's gonna be a good night

That tonight's gonna be a good, good night

I gotta feeling (woo-hoo) that tonight's gonna be a good night

That tonight's gonna be a good night

That tonight's gonna be a good, good night

Rory laughed and moved away raising her hands in the air and dancing beside him.

He moved in behind her and held her waist again singing,

Tonight's the night night

Let's live it up

I got my money

Let's spend it up

Go out and smash it

Like Oh My God

Jump off that sofa

Let's get get OFF!

I know that well have a ball

If we get down

And go out

And just loose it all

Rory twisted around in his arms and put her arms around his neck and sang along with the music.

Fill up my cup (Drink)
Mazel Tov (L'chaim)
Look at her dancing (Move it, move it)
Just take it off

Let's paint the town (Paint the town)
We'll shut it down (Let's shut it down)
Let's burn the roof
And then we'll do it again

Steph and Colin came out and stood beside them and the four of them began to dance together. Steph and Rory had their arms over their had and laughed and danced together as the two best friends watched their dates.

Let's do it, let's do it, let's do it, let's do it
And do it and do it, let's live it up
And do it and do it and do it, do it, do it
Let's do it, let's do it, let's do it, do it, do it, do it

Here we come, here we go, we gotta rock (Rock rock rock rock rock)
Easy come, easy go, now we on top (Top top top top top)
Feel the shot, body rock, rock it, don't stop (Stop stop stop stop stop)
Round and round, up and down, around the clock (Rock rock rock rock rock)

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday
Friday, Saturday, Saturday to Sunday
Get, get, get, get, get with us, you know what we say, say
Party every day, p-p-p-party every day

Colin pulled Steph into his arms and began to sing with her.

And I'm feelin', woohoo, that tonight's gonna be a good night
That tonight's gonna be a good night
That tonight's gonna be a good, good night

A feelin', woohoo, that tonight's gonna be a good night
That tonight's gonna be a good night
That tonight's gonna be a good, good night, woohoo

Finn pulled Rory into his arms and continued to dance. Everyone was around them and they were all having fun. Rory had her hands in the air and Finn moved in behind her. Putting his hands on her waist he twirled her around and kissed her. She felt that electric feeling go through her body.

She then put her arms around his neck and kissed him again. They looked deep into each other's eyes. They never noticed that the song ended, and the band had switched it to a slow song.

Lane and Zach had been watching Rory interact with Finn and it was Zac's idea to give them something slow to dance too. Zac began to sing the ballad, "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow," by Carol King.

Rory didn't hear the words of the music, instead she focused on Finn. She loved how he made her feel. She loved how he caressed her shoulder and touched her hair. She felt safe and secure in his arms. She loved being held by him. She leaned up and kissed him again forgetting where she was. At that moment and time there was no one else in the room but the two of them.

The music ended, and they pulled apart. Finn took her hand and led her back to the table. Steph and Colin returned too and smiled at them.

"Rory it looks like you two are enjoying yourself," Colin said looking at Finn and Rory. It had been a long time since Colin had seen Finn with anyone. It also had been a long time since he had seen Rory. He worried about Logan and told Steph this when they were on the dance floor as they watched Finn and Rory kiss.

Steph reminded Colin that Logan was engaged, why shouldn't Finn and Rory be happy.

Sitting back in the booth Rory turned to Steph and said, "Steph, I have missed you, are you in the city full time now?"

"I go back and forth between here and Connecticut. Where are you now Rory?"

"I am in Hartford, I bought a townhouse. You and Colin will need to come over sometime for dinner. Finn, what are you doing next Thursday? Maybe they can come over for dinner. Are you available?"

"For you Kitten I will be available," and he kissed her on the lips. Colin smiled at Steph and she whispered in Colin's ear.

"I think they look perfect together," she told him.

He kissed her and said," I agree."

They stayed at the Omnia until 1 o'clock in the morning. Finally, Finn and Rory said goodbye to Lane, Zac, Gil, and Brian. They then said goodbye to Colin and Steph. Rory made sure that Steph had her new address and phone number. The car was waiting for them when they walked out of the club. In the car ride back to Hartford they held hands and shared tender kisses.

"Finn this was a wonderful night."

"I am glad you liked it. "

He took her hand and kissed it and then asked her, "Ror, can I ask you something?"

Still holding hands she smiled back at him.

"Of course you can, Finn."

"Do you still have feelings for Logan?"

"Finn," she sighed, " Logan hasn't been a part of my life in four years. That was a long time ago."

Finn smiled and tilted her face towards him, kissing her tenderly on the lips.

"I want to see you again."

She looked up at Finn and put her hand on his cheek, "Finn there is no Logan in my life. I can date who I want, and I want to see you again."

He pulled her towards him and kissed her passionately. Feeling the burning desire for him in her body she knew she had to say something.

"Finn, our first time together, I don't want it to be in the back of the car."

"Neither do I, Love," He whispered in her ear. He kissed her again. They just held each other and let their hearts slow down. She rested her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes before she knew it the town car pulled up in front of her house. The driver opened the door and she slipped out and he followed behind her.

"Here, let me help you," he said as he walked her to the door. She took keys out of her purse and handed them to him showing him which one was the key to her front door. He opened her door and walked inside with her making sure the lights were on, then he pulled her into his arms for one last kiss.

"I will see you tomorrow Kitten."

He turned and opened the door and went to his car. He now knew that she was the one and he wasn't going to let Logan interfere this time.
