Pov- Rory
Flashback
I was sitting in a bar with Logan and Finn. Finn was being unnaturally quiet, and he wasn't drinking. Logan didn't appear to have noticed, but I did. In fact, I had recently realized that I noticed Finn a lot more than I should, and definitely much more than he noticed me. He was always off trying to woo one redhead or another. I found myself wondering, sitting there, whether he had ever considered anyone besides a redhead. What about us brunettes? I stopped that train of thought abruptly. I wasn't going to go there. I was with Logan! ...But Logan appeared to take even less notice of me than Finn did. He was always flirting with the waitresses as if I wasn't even there. I figured that it was just a part of dating him and that I just had to deal with it. It got on my nerves though. It really did.
I heard a voice talking to me that pulled me out of my thoughts. "Ace, you ready?" It had to be Logan. He was the only person that called me 'Ace.'
"Yeah, let's go." I replied.
"You coming, Finn?" Logan asked.
"No, you guys go. I'll see you tomorrow."
Logan nodded. I found myself feeling disappointed that Finn wasn't coming with us.
Logan picked up his jacket and walked away. I followed suit, hurrying to catch up, lost in thought once again. Why had I felt sad that Finn wasn't coming with us? I knew that there was an obvious explanation for my recent thoughts, but I wasn't willing to go there. I didn't want to deal with that. We were almost to his car when I noticed how drunk Logan was. He was barely able to walk straight, and getting worse as we walked. He was leaning on my shoulder. When we had arrived at his car I tried to tell him, gently, that he shouldn't drive.
"Logan, honey, I think you maybe should let me drive. You had a lot to drink."
"No! I have to drive."
"Logan, come on, let me drive."
"No!" He shoved off of me, and even though he was drunk he caught me by surprise, and I hit the ground hard.
"Shit Logan!" I yelled. That had really hurt.
"Get in the car." Logan gritted.
"No, not with you like this."
"Get in the damn car!" He was so scary that I did as he said, worried about what he might do.
We had gone a few blocks when the light in front of us turned red. Logan didn't even slow down at all.
"Logan, it's red!" His face just looked grim. He didn't appear to have heard me. He kept driving through the intersection. A truck rammed into the passenger side of the car. Then everything went black.
End Flashback
"Come on, love, wake up. I know you can do it, you're going to be ok. You have to be ok." Pause. Then "I love you." I fell back into oblivion.
Pov- Third person (aka normal)
Lorelai was standing at
the coffee machine, drumming her fingers on the buttons. She had a
vacant expression on her face, Finn noticed, and she didn't seem to
have any idea that there was coffee right in front of her. Finn
smiled thinking of Rory's coffee addiction. It came from her
mother, he knew, so making nice with coffee might be a good idea
right now. He walked over and pulled out his wallet.
"Allow
me." He said as he put a dollar in and pressed the button for hot
coffee. When the cup had been dispensed he took it out and handed it
to Lorelai, who still seemed pretty out of it. She stood and looked
at it for a minute, not seeming to realize what it was. Suddenly the
scent seemed to finally have reached her brain, and she started to
gulp the coffee hungrily. Finn had just gotten his cup out when she
was finishing. Lorelai moved to buy herself another one when Finn
handed her a dollar and walked across the hall to sit in a chair. He
waited while she brought her coffee over, and waited for what he knew
was coming. It didn't come. He looked over at Lorelai and saw that
she was watching him thoughtfully. After a moment she asked a
question that he didn't expect. "You're the one who had the
Quentin Tarantino themed party?"
"Umm… yeah. Why?" Finn was thoroughly confused. He had expected questions about Logan or his own intentions, but not about a party he had had in the past.
"Oh I just remember Rory mentioning this guy there who hosted it who had black fingernails and way too much to drink. She said he was a hot Aussie, which seems to apply here. She never told me his name though. She seemed to like you. You were the only good thing that she could talk about about that party for a while."
Finn sat there stunned. She had told her mother about him? She had said that he was hot? But everyone knows that! Finn thought to himself, laughing inwardly.
"Yes, that must have been me." Finn winked. "She enjoyed herself did she? I don't remember much of it myself, but I've heard that it was a good time."
Lorelai laughed at that. The laugh smoothed some of the worry lines from her forehead, at least temporarily. Finn was charming!
Suddenly Luke came running. "She's awake! She's awake!"
A/N: Whoa look! I finally did another chapter! Amazing, isn't it? Sorry it took so long, and it kinda sucks, but I think I like Finn in it, so I'm ok with it for now. Hopefully the next one won't take so long to get out. I generally like to update a lot more often, but it's been a very hectic summer. And I should be starting this summer homework I have, and I just got a job and lots of stuff. Anyways, PDLD next chapter, yay! I would work on writing it right now, and I might, but who knows how good it'll be since it is almost 5 in the morning. That would also account for why I'm rambling on and on about stuff that you don't care about. So.
The little blue button calls to you!
