AN: I do not own anything Gilmore Girls related. Happy holidays everyone!
She walked towards her door and saw Finn. She figured he'd come by. She opened the door and he practically ran in. "Finn, are you okay?"
"Grab your passport let's go," Finn said turning around at her.
"What? Why?" She asked very confused.
"To go somewhere of course," he replied.
"Where Finn?"
"Anywhere, London, Sydney, Tokyo, Ireland, anywhere you want to. Just out of this continent," Finn replied.
"You have Yale, I have work we can't just up and leave," Rory pointed out.
Finn started running around the place and turned at her, "Please Rory, just let me get us out of here. I know you don't want to be as much as me, if not more."
"…Alright, where to?"
"Anywhere you want love, just pack!" Finn said now smiling at her and pushing her into her bedroom. "Where is your luggage stuff?"
"In the closet over there," Rory replied point over to the closet closest to Finn. He walked over and took it out and left the room but not before telling her he had to make a call real quick.
Inside Rory was packing for the worst-case scenarios. Dressing up, casual, and also for god knows how long. In Rory's common room Finn was calling Colin. "Hey mate…. Oh I'm just peachy…. Was not my fault…hey- he punched me…. So not the point…. Yes I did… again, so not the point…. I need a favor… Don't say it like that… Let me borrow your plane… A week tops… Not sure yet… I just need to get out of here… Yes with Rory…She's responsible… nothing will happen I swear mate… Thank you ever so much…. Yeah tell him my eye still hurts like a bitch… thanks a bunch Hun…. Bye Colin," Finn said before hanging up.
Once he was done Rory walked out pulling her bag of whatever she threw into it within the few moments. He walked over and grabbed it from her while telling her the game plan. "So we're gonna drive over to the private airport where Colin's planes inhabits. Then we shall a board after your luggage is properly placed somewhere. Than we will depart to whenever your little heart desires."
"I have to pick?"
"Yes you do."
"Why?"
"Because I said so love, so where to?"
"Umm…"
"Ever want to go somewhere, but haven't yet?" Finn asked wondering why she couldn't just pick somewhere.
Rory thought about this for a moment. She than came up with an answer of how to get Finn to possibly open up to her. "Let's go to Australia Finn."
Finn thought about this for a second. He hasn't been there in about 6 years. "Alright love, we better get going then."
Once in the car driving to the airport Rory thought about thing. "Hey, Finn before you said my luggage, and there isn't anything in the back but mine. How come you're not bringing anything?"
"Well darling, I like a little spontaneity in my life and I figured I'd just buy some new stuff. I figured you'd like to have at least some belongings. Ah, we're here come on." Finn told her before opening her door and walking out. He grabbed her bag from the back and walked with her towards Colin's plane.
Because it was a private plane they could quickly aboard and lift off. It only took them about 20 minutes to get off the land. Finn and Rory started to watch a movie but they soon got bored. Finn looked over at Rory. It was the first time Rory actually looked at his face in full light. She noticed some discoloration around his left eye. In fact- it looked like a black eye. Rory gasped. Finn concerned asked what was wrong.
"I can't believe him! He hit you! Logan hit you!" she said in a sort of panic.
Finn sighed. He'd forgotten about that. "Calm down Rory. It's no big deal."
"Finn, I'm sorry this is my fault. I shouldn't have-"
"Hey, don't blame you. I'm the one who kept reaching out to you love. Don't worry about me. I can handle Logan."
Rory reached out and touched the skin under his eye. "Does it hurt?" She asked.
"Not anymore, seriously Gilmore you're like a shaman so something. The healing touch," He said and smiled at her now laughing at him again. He liked making her laugh. He loved the way he face light up when she did. "You look tired. It's gonna be a long time till we land so come here. Go to sleep," he old her while getting comfortable and then had her sit next to him so that he can hold her while she sleeps.
"Rory… love… wake up… we've landed," Finn whispered into her ear gently shaking her.
She rubbed her eyes and opened them a little. "Huh?"
"We're here love," Finn told her again admiring how cute she looked at there.
"Alright… can I have any coffee any time soon?" she asked innocently.
"Soon love, soon now come on," Finn said pulling her up and grabbing her hand. He pulled her out of the door and walked her down the steps. "Welcome to the down under love. I do hope you enjoy your stay here," He told her laughing, which she too was laughing within a couple words of his.
"Okay so our hotel is about 30 minutes away from here, I've already got a car waiting with your luggage in it and we're gonna drive over there. Get settle than see what happens. Good?" He asked her.
"Sounds Good." She nodded.
They drove over to the hotel in a good manor, but not without making a pit stop for coffee. They did reach the hotel in good time and got settled within an hour. Soon Rory was lying on the bed with Finn sitting in a chair across from her staring at her. "Hey Finn?"
"Yeah love?"
"Do have any family here? So old friends or anything like that?" Rory asked him.
"Uhh, yeah- my mom lives here and I do have old friends here I think at least," Finn answered not exactly loving where this was going.
"When did you move away here?"
And here comes the 21 questions, Finn thought to himself. "About 6 years ago," he replied simply.
"Wait you said mom, did you move to the states with your dad or something?" She asked.
And here comes the father questions. "Not quite."
"Meaning?"
"Look Rory, let's just not talk about it, okay?" Finn said with a little too much attitude. He did feel bad for giving her a little too much of attitude. I mean she was just trying to get to know him a little bit more.
"Sorry Finn, but going off the father subject why don't we visit those old friends? I mean you haven't seen them in probably over those 6 years. It'll be good for you to see them again," Rory tried to plea, while tiptoeing on ice trying not to make him aggravated in anyway.
Finn thought about it for moment. He hadn't seen them since he left. I guess it couldn't be that bad, he thought to himself. "Alright love, we'll see them tonight," he told her.
"Yay!" Rory said to him excitedly and got up to hug him. But what Finn didn't know is that Rory was just prepping him up for something else.
