She opened the lid to the small velvet box and then she sat down hard on the bed in disbelief. She pulled the ring out of it's box and held it her in hand. She looked at it for a moment in complete awe. She couldn't find the words to describe what she was feeling at that moment. She looked over at Finn and could see that he was sort of crying. "Is this what I think it is?"

Finn smiled at Rory and sort of wiped away his tears and then he kissed her on top of her head. "He told me to read you this letter when you found the ring." Finn reached into his pocket pulled out the folded up white sheet of paper. He cleared his throat a little and then started to read.

I hope you like your birthday present. I've waited three years to give you this gift. I wanted to before I left for Stanford but I thought it would be dumb to ask you for a long distance engagement. It wouldn't have been fair of me to force you to put your life on hold while I tried to sort out my issues. I don't want you to feel like you have to say yes Ace. I would love it if you did but you don't have to. It was on this very boat that I realized I needed you to survive. You were my sun, my moon, my air, my water, and most importantly my reason for living. If you would like to spend the rest of your life with me then look under the pillow there is another surprise for you.

Rory looked at Finn a little unsure but went and retrieved a white envelope from underneath the pillow. She opened it and saw that there were four tickets to Las Vegas in it. "Vegas? He wants us to all go to Vegas?"

Finn smiled. "Yeah love he thought maybe you could skip the big to do and go straight to I do. I thought that was pretty brilliant of him actually. I mean with everything that has been going on lately. Look at how things just fell for Colin and Stephanie."

Rory looked down at the tickets and then back up at Finn. He was right. It would probably be much smarter to just go ahead and tie the knot. Spontaneity was a good thing. She smiled at him. "Okay let's go wake Colin's emotional ass up and then head back to the bat cave. Maybe Stephanie will have come to her senses and will be there when we get back."

Finn kissed Rory's forehead and gave her a big hug. "I'm so happy for you. I mean you and Logan deserve all the happiness in the world. With everything that has gone on I'm happy you two somehow found a way to make it."

Colin was standing outside of the car waiting for them as soon as they got back. He had this big goofy smile on his face. It was like he was a little kid waiting for his present's on Christmas morning. "So are congratulations in order?"

Rory nodded.

Colin picked her up and sort of swung her around in a circle. "I know you'd say yes. Now you've said yes even to going to Vegas?"

Rory simply nodded again. She couldn't really find the words to speak. She was on the verge of tears. This was the happiest moment of her life. She couldn't believe that she would always be known as the girl that got Logan Huntzberger to settle down. She wondered if she should call her mother and grandmother. She thought about it for a few minutes and then decided against it. They would be furious at the thought of her marrying him in some cheesy twenty four chapel where they guy would dress like Elvis for another ten bucks.

When they got to the townhouse they were all relieved to see that the lights were on. Stephanie had come to her senses. She had realized that Bryan wasn't just some innocent bystander. Rory got out of the car and ran up the steps to tell her best friend the good news. She was now wearing the ring which she noticed was Logan's grandmother's ring. It was one of the most beautiful antiques she had even seen. It had a white gold band with a diamond in the center that was surrounded by little blue sapphires. It was the most beautiful and perfect ring she had ever seen. She threw open the door to the townhouse ready to pounce on Stephanie. She found Stephanie sitting on the couch quietly with two cops on either side of her. "What the hell is going on Stephanie?"

"They're here to arrest Colin for attacking Bryan earlier today." Stephanie replied in a cool manner. It was like she had been brainwashed or something.

Colin and Finn walked into the house and both had the same reaction as Rory did. They were in shock and disbelief. "Stephanie I'm so happy you're back sweetheart. I'm so sorry for my rash actions earlier today."

Rory turned around. "Colin do not say anything else. Stephanie isn't back because she wants to be here and because she's forgiven you. She's back because she was waiting for you with the officers. She's having you arrested for attacking Bryan." As soon as Rory said the name Bryan Darwin walked out of the bathroom. His nose was swollen and had some sort of bandage on it. It was hard to recognize him.

"Stephanie you've got to be kidding me." Colin said as he moved out to touch her. As soon as he took a step the cops sort of bounded on him.

They read him his rights and then hauled him out the door. Colin looked helpless. He didn't say anything. He just stared at Stephanie the whole time as if he didn't recognize her. It was like the two of had never met before. He was probably trying to convince himself that this was all just a big joke or something. That his fiancé hadn't turned on him. He looked at Rory and Finn and knew at that moment that this wasn't a joke that she had in fact sided with that asshole Bryan Darwin.

"Which precinct are you taking him too?" Finn asked desperately as they lead Colin out of the room.

"The 48th it's located on Jennings Road." The fat old cop replied as he hauled Colin out of the door.

"Finn you need to go call Mr. Lawson so he can meet them at the station. Stephanie I think you need to leave." Rory replied briskly.

Stephanie saw the ring on her hand and rushed forward to look at it. "He asked you to marry him?"

Rory snatched her hand back. "Yeah he did. We came back here thinking we were going to celebrate the good news and instead we have to deal with the fact that Colin now being taken to jail. How could you do this to him? I just want you to know that we were all going to go to Las Vegas tonight because that was where Logan and I were going to get married. Now it looks like we're not going to be able to. When we do go you're not invited. I can't believe you would do this to him. Bryan Darwin provoked Colin. He basically called you a whore. Colin did nothing but protect you."

Stephanie looked at Rory in disbelief. "So if he doesn't drop the charges I'm not invited to your wedding? I'm not allowed to be a member of your lives anymore?"

Finn rushed into the room. "Mr. Lawson said he'll be there in fifteen minutes. I told him we would meet him there. What is she still doing here?"

"I was just about to ask her the same question. The answer to your question is yes that's right. Colin loves you. He's always loved you. Bryan just wants to lay you. I want my old Stephanie back the one who was getting married and was excited about spending the rest of her life with an IRS agent."

The car was silent on the ride over to the station. Finn was probably worried about Colin, but Rory was worried about Logan. Should she call him and tell him what was going on? Should she just try to solve this situation as fast as possible? She didn't know. All she knew was that she was going to be Mrs. Logan Huntzberger sooner or later. That was one thing she could be happy about.

I know I know not as much Rogan, but I thought this one needed to happen. The next two chapters will be much more Rogan I promise. I hope you liked this one.
