PDLD Chapter 6: The 'F' word

It had been 2 weeks since Rory and Finn shared the passionate kiss. Neither of them could forget just how perfect their lips fit together, how their bodies were pressed up to one another on the floor of the Hartford Disco Roller Rink. Rory admittedly had fun on her outing, even before the intense kiss, thus never getting the chance to force Finn through a viewing of Glitter. Finn and Colin had asked Rory to continue living in the dorm with them. Although Rory didn't want to leave, she thought it would be best to leave because of the slightly awkward situation with Finn. These thoughts led to the conversation with Finn that was about to take place.

Finn was in the kitchen studying when Rory arrived back at their residence. Although Finn's eyes were seemingly glued to the text in front of him, he was eying Rory's every move; the way she carried her books, the way she tucked a stray piece of hair behind her ear, the way she bit her bottom lip before she slowly walked into the kitchen and grabbed a seat on the opposite side of him.

"Hey Finn are you really busy? She asked cautiously

"Hmm? Oh no Rory I was just going over this but it isn't that important at the moment" he said closing his textbook.

"Oh, can I talk to you then?"

"I believe that's what were doing at the moment" Finn said trying to lighten some of the tension between the two

Rory gave a small smile "I think I should move out"

"What? Why?" Finn did not expect to be having this conversation

"Well, ever since that kiss there has been a lot of awkwardness between us"

"And you think to relieve that you need to move out so you can continue to avoid me every chance you get?"

"I haven't been avoiding you" she denied

"Oh. I guess it's just my imagination that every time I enter a room with you in it you make up and excuse to leave. When I call your name out in a busy hallway you act as if you don't hear me. When we invite you to the pub with us you say you have to study."

"Okay I've been avoiding you" Rory said looking down slightly ashamed

"I thought we said we would stay friends?" Finn inquired

"I know it's just weird after what happened" Rory admitted aloud

"Why is it weird?" Finn asked intrigued

"We kissed" Rory said in a voice just above a whisper

"There has to be more to it then that because one kiss shouldn't cause so many problems." Finn said knowingly

"I know, but it did" She replied

"No Rory, I think the bigger problem is that you have feelings for me but you are too afraid to admit it to yourself"

"What?"

"You heard me"

"Finn I will admit that I am attracted to you, and I could potentially have feelings for you in the future, but that isn't the reason I want to move out. I just want to get rid of this awkwardness"

"You're afraid"

"I am not"

"Yes you are. You're afraid that I'll treat you like Logan treated you and that we won't work out. But you are mostly afraid that you will fall for me the way I have fallen for you"

"Finn?" Rory said awed by the fact he admitted he had fallen for her.

"These last two weeks have sucked Rory, plain and simple." Finn continued. "I want you in my life, and I know you want to try to preserve our friendship but we haven't spoken in over two weeks because of one kiss. I want a chance to be with you, but if it will make it awkward, we should just forget it and pretend the kiss never happened and we can just be friends and nothing more."

"Is that what you want?" she asked slightly disappointed that he wanted to forget.

"What I want is for you to give me a chance. I want you to trust that I won't treat you the way Logan did and that I will always be here for you no matter what"

"Okay"

"What?" Finn said shocked at what he was hearing

"I'll give you a chance. You're right Finn, these past two weeks really did suck. And I have been thinking about how right it felt to be with you. I know I said I needed time to get over Logan, but I knew that a break up between us was inevitable. When we ended the first time, I was sad and angry and I dealt with it. When we got back together it didn't feel as right as it did before and I know that Logan will never be the one for me. I want to give you a chance and I want to see if we can work" She finished her speech with a small smile gracing her lips.

"Wow! I'm glad you feel that way. I really am" Finn said now fully alert

"So when do you want to go out on an actual date?" Rory asked nervously

"How about next Saturday. That way you can relax after Friday night dinner"

"Friday night dinner was cancelled next week" Rory admitted.

"Oh. Well then you can have Friday to prepare then."

"Okay Saturday sounds good."

"So about this living arrangement. Still planning on moving?"

"I don't know?"

"I think you should stay for now and see how things go"

"Is that wise?"

"Well we must wait and see"

"Okay let's wait and see"

"Good."

"Good"

"Well I have to get back to studying" Finn replied

"O yeah, I have to meet my mom, she wanted to talk to me about something." Rory said as she got up from the chair.

"Okay I'll see you later?"

"Yep. Bye Finn"

"Bye love"

Rory left the dorm room feeling so much better then when she had first entered. She finally had an idea about what to do regarding her relationship with Finn. She got in her car and drove to Stars Hollow where her mother was waiting for her.

Rory was glad to be back in Stars Hollow. When she passed by Luke's Diner, she saw her mother through the window talking animatedly to her fiancée. She parked her car and ran through the diner's front door. Usually a Gilmore never ran, but Rory had not seen her mother in weeks and missed her crazy antics.

"Mommy!

"Fruit of my loins!

The two Gilmore's embraced in a hug. Ever since they reconciled after their falling out, the Gilmore Girls had been better then ever.

"How is my mini me doing. How's Yale are you still flourishing?"

"Yale is excellent. My professors are brilliant, my classes are interesting and I am ruling over the Yale Daily News" Rory replied enthusiastically

"That's great sweetie! How are you doing about the Logan Situation?'

Rory had mentioned the things that had happened with Logan, but had yet to mention the 'F' word (Finn )to her mother.

"I'm doing okay. I ran into him a couple weeks ago and he basically called me a whore and led me to wallow, but I am doing amazing now and I am so over that jerk."

"Well that sucks about the whore part, but I'm glad you are over him. He was such a snob, frat boy, lowlife….."

"Butt faced miscreant?"

"YES EXACTLY!"

"I said the same thing after the stunt he pulled in my class. Oh by the way, Professor Bell still hates me after that!"

"Aww" Lorelai pouted playfully

"Well at least everything is good, and Finn is being so amazing" she said and got a look of happiness in her eyes

Her mother noticed and the Lorelai Inquisition began.

"So…Finn Huh?"

"What about him?" Rory asked somewhat defensively

"Well I just noticed the way you said Finn and you had this dreamy look in your eyes. Tell momma what happened." Lorelai said

"Okay. Well after the break up they helped me a lot and even let me move in with them"

"Wait who is they? Finn and….?" Lorelai questioned

"Colin" Rory said without much enthusiasm, and of course Lorelai noticed

"SEE!" Lorelai exclaimed

What?

"The way you said Colin didn't seem like anything important but when you mentioned Finn you got this look in your eyes and you smiled and you had this look of pure adoration for our favourite Australian."

"Mom" Rory sighed

"What happened with Finn" Lorelai smiled

"Nothing" Rory said quickly. Too quickly in fact.

"You like him" Lorelai gushed

"No I don't" Denied Rory

"Yes you do, you like Finn"

"Stop"

"Rory likes Finn!" Lorelai practically yelled

"Say that a little louder I don't think Miss Patty heard you" Rory replied through gritted teeth

"Oh I heard her fine dear, but you might want to speak up for Babette" came Miss Patty's voice from across the diner

"MOM!" Rory yelled horrified

"What?" Asked Lorelai innocently

"Everyone will know"

"Everyone will know what?"

"That I like him" Rory whispered

"That you like who?"

"That I like Finn!" Rory yelled exasperated. The whole diner heard and turned to look at her Oh Crap she thought

"Ha you admitted it! No one expects the Lorelai Inquisition and when it happens they all crack. You, my darling daughter, are a prime example of how successful my persuasive skills are." She gloated doing a little dance in the spot she was in.

"Okay mom. You win, but will you please stop" Rory replied embarrassed at making a scene

"Stop what?"

"Stop saying the 'F' Word" She said just as Luke walked by

"Lorelai how many times do I have to tell you to stop using words like that. What am I going to do with you?" Replied an irritated Luke

"Oh Dirty!" Replied Lorelai "And I wasn't saying anything wrong, when Rory said 'stop using the 'F' word' she meant stop talking about her handsome Aussie."

"Huh" Luke asked confused

"Never mind Luke, just bring us more coffee" demanded the eldest Lorelai

"Lorelai how many cups did you have today?" Luke asked like always

"Only two I swear" she stated putting her fingers in a scouts honour pose.

"Lorelai?" He questioned sceptically

"Fine I had two times six"

"LORELAI!"

"What? Twelve cups is HARDLY a record"

"When we get married I am cutting you off at three cups a day"

"LUKE" Both girls yelled horrified

"What"

"That's cruel and unusual punishment. How would you like it if I cut back on our sex life"

"Aw geez" Replied Luke embarrassed as he left the Gilmore Girls alone

"See I knew that would get rid of him. Now give me the scoop"

"Mom I don't like imagining your sex life with Luke"

"Well I don't like imagining yours with Finn"

"What! I didn't sleep with him."

"What? I thought something happened"

"We kissed. Once. And now we decided to go out on a real date this Saturday"

"Aww that's so sweet" Lorelai mocked her with a smile

"You know I am going to ignore your mocking because I am in too good of a mood." Rory relied smiling

"I'm glad your happy" replied her mother sincerely

"Me too." She said with a smile. "So what was it you wanted to talk to me about?"

"The wedding"

"Your wedding"

"Yes"

"I thought June third was out?"

"Oh it is. Its in April. The 23rd"

"Next April"

"No this April"

"What? That's so soon!"

"It's what we want"

"Really"

"Yes"

"So what do you need me to do" Asked Rory excitedly

"I need you to help me plan"

"I still can't believe you picked April."

"I think it's fitting, an April wedding. It's like even though April kinda put a wrench in the June third wedding, she inspired the April wedding" Replied Lorelai with a smile

"That's weird, but oddly fitting. Wow mom, you do realize that's in just over three weeks right?"

"I know hence the reason I asked you to be here. I need your help planning the wedding"

"Well, I have classes and stuff, but I would never abandon my mother when she is marrying the man she loves"

"Thanks Hon, that means a lot. But if you are having second thoughts about my wedding, we can just pack up and road trip like we did with the Max thing. "

"Mom I love Luke. I want you both to be happy, and I have always thought of him as my father anyway. No running away this time. Beside you would be wallowing for the rest of your life and we wouldn't be able to have naymore of Lukes coffee!

You're right! okay this wedding is SO on! exclaimed the eldest Lorelai

Rory smiled at her mothers obvious happiness "So any ideas on what you want to do"

The two Gilmore's started talking about the wedding to come. Both in happy moods due to the current men in their lives.
