Ok, probably my last update for a long while. I go away to camp for a months, and then go to my grandparents island for two weeks, starting Wednesday. It brings a tear to my eye. Anyways, read and review!


Finn's Version of Truth or Dare


A week. A whole week. It had been a whole week since they had come back from their cross country trip, a whole week since the party, a whole week since they had kissed. It hadn't been to difficult for Rory. She thought that it would be awkward between her and Logan, but life had gone on as if nothing had happened. She tried to erase that kiss from her mind, but the feelings that went with it remained to pry at her heart. She tried to keep her mind on other things, school for instance. That was the only thing she really could concentrate on, not Logan, not alcohol, and especially not Dean. She hadn't seen Dean in over a month, and she hadn't even called him. Truth be told, she was afraid to. She had only gone back to her own dorm once, just on the night of the party, and luckily, Paris hadn't been home to pester her with messages. She had been living at Rosemary's dorm, in what was formerly Stephanie's room, before she moved in with Colin of course. While she forced herself to ignore the world, and to focus on studying, she became like the old Rory, though she herself did not notice.

"Um miss, I don't think it's healthy for a nose to be wedged to far into a book" Logan joked, coming up behind her, making her jump out of the daze she had been in reading her book

"Logan shh, this is a library" Rory scolded, though smiling at him.

He ran his fingers over the closest row of books, "I don't think they heard me" he waved a book around, gesturing

"Logan! These are..." She was cut off

"First addition Dickens, I know. What do you take me for, an idiot? I know you to well Ace"

Rory sighed, "I might as well ask you why you're here, knowing you won't leave me alone until I do"

"Can't I be in the library for academic purposes?" Logan pretended to be taken aback

"Well, if learning how to french every girl on campus counts as academic purposes, then of course, you're here more often than I and I have no right to question your motives"

"Ouch, that really hurt" Logan said, though it was true. Logan seemed to be getting back in his groove. Finn kept asking him how he did it, how he had every girl on campus begging to be in his bed everyday, though he had only been at Yale for a few months. Logan himself couldn't explain it. It was Rory who had said it best, though he couldn't exactly place when. She had told them that Logan and her were two halves of a whole. She, the sophisticated, quiet, kind, and he the playboy, party, kind. When one half went missing, they tried to compensate by becoming the other half, Rory becoming less schoolgirl and more party girl, and the opposite for Logan. Now that the halves were back together, they could return to how they had been.

"Painful, but terrible true" Rory said, faking sadness. Neither of them could hold back a smile, and soon they were both laughing, though they had no idea why.

"Seriously, why did you come here?" Rory asked, after the librarian threatened to kick them out

"To remind you" Logan said slyly

"About..." Rory looked at his curiously

"This is why you have me, to remind you. I knew you forgot" Logan smirked

"Tell me what I forgot!" Rory begged him

"Tonight..." Logan said

"Is..." Rory still looked confused

"Finn's failure party! Remember, he officially failed a college lass, we're throwing him a party"

"Why?" Rory looked even more confused

"Because, in his entire school career, Finn had never failed a class, he has always swindled and charmed his way out of it. Never underestimate an Australian"

"Oh shoot! I forgot about the party!" Rory jumped up

"And I say it again, that's why you have me" Logan rolled his eyes sarcastically

Rory couldn't help but laugh, "Ok, I'll be there, seven o'clock?"

"Yeah, the usualbar of course"

"Oh wait, Rose and Steph are out all today, on some shopping escapade that I preferred to sit out. They said they weren't coming back till later and were going to go straight there, so they couldn't give me a ride" Rory thought aloud

"I'll take you" Logan offered, not skipping a beat

Rory looked at him for a moment, pondering his offer, "Ok, sure, thanks" she heard herself answer

"I got to run, I have a class to go to" Logan said, grinning, but turning to leave

"I thought we had talked you out of classes again" Rory teased, "I was sure we had the real Logan back"

"Apparently, you have to actually attend a few of the classes in order to pass them, who knew?" Logan played back

"It is a lesser known fact" Rory mocked sincerity

Logan smiled, "See you at six forty five"

39103

"Hello?" Logan called, venturing forward through the dorm door that was wide open, "Ace?"

"Coming!" Rory called, rushing into the room, her hands flying about, making sure every hair on her head was in place

"Rory, we're talking about Finn, you don't have to look good for one of his parties, he won't remember anyways" Logan said, as the pair walked towards the car

"Who said I wanted to look good for Finn?" Rory teased, shooting him a seductive look

"Gilmore plays dirty" Logan joked

Afew minutes later they pulled into the parking lot of their favorite bar. The party had already started, and they could heard the music blasting

"Come in loves!' Finn called, "We were just about to play a game"

"We were?" Colin looked puzzled

"Well, I was thinking about starting one when this lovely lady arrived" Finn kissed Rory's hand

"What game? Something involving alcohol?" Logan asked

"But of course. I was thinking, Truth or Dare" Finn grinned

"What are we, twelve?" Colin scoffed

"Hey, it's my party, I get to decide what we play" Finn pouted

"Fine, let's get a group together" Rory smiled while Colin groaned

less than two minutes later, Rory had a group assembled, huddled in the shady alcove of the bar, in a sea of couches and chairs. Robert, Rosemary, Juliet, Stephanie, Colin, Finn, Logan, and Rory, all sat in a circle, waiting to start the game

"Ok, rules, do it or drink" Logan said

"What? Just refuse and you get alcohol? That's no fun" Finn cried

"do it, or drink... water" Logan said evilly

"Now that's a little more intimidating" Colin joked sarcastically

"I'll go first 'cause it's my party" Finn said mater-of-factly, "Stephanie, truth or dare?"

"Um, truth" Stephanie said nervously

"When was the last time Colin got laid?" Finn cackled

Stephanie blushed dark red. Colin slapped Finn over the head. Stephanie answered quietly, "About an hour an a half before we came here" Finn found this tremendously funny, and began laughing hysterically

"My turn" Stephanie said coldly, "Finn, truth or dare?"

"Dare" Finn said, grinning evilly

"Stand on the table and do a strip dance while singing Shania Twain's "I Feel Like a Woman" or drink water" Stephanie glared at him. Finn, being Finn, proceeded to stand, strip, and sing, but Colin managed to stop him before all the clothes came off

"Oh goodie, my turn again" Finn said gleefully, "Hmm lets see... Rory, truth or dare?"

Rory, wanting to avoid the kind of truth Finn had asked Stephanie, answered "Dare"

"Ok, lemme see... Rory, I dare you to make out with any single guy at this table for a whole minute"

Rory glanced around. God, Finn was cruel, even when he was drunk. Colin was with Stephanie, Rosemary was with Finn, and Robert had Juliet. Leaving only Logan, the guy who had never had a girlfriend, only stands, making him always single. Finn knew what he was doing. Rory glanced at Logan apologetically.

Logan had also noticed that he was the only single guy at the table. Hewatched as a look of realization dawned on her pretty face. He smirked at her, "Lucky me" he slid closer to her,along the soft cushions of the wrap around couch

"Begin in three... two... one... kiss!" Colin counted, just as gleefully as Finn

Rory hesitated for a moment, unsure of how forward she should be. Se needn't have worried, Logan kissed her first. She had expected nothing, especially because it was only a dare, but those fireworks exploded in her head again, just like the first time they kissed a week ago. She hadn't ment to do anything more than kiss him, but the rest of her had other plans. Her tongue found its way into his mouth, her hands slipped under his shirt, her eyes closed in pleasure.

Logan had been the first to kiss, that he knew, but he hadn't expected her to respond so fully, not even after that kiss they had shared a week ago. Her hands caressed his body, and her lips felt so soft against his. His hands cupped the back of her head, pulling her closer to him. He noticed and as she moved closer to him, she adjusted herself, positioning herself so that she was straddling him. Old feelings stirred in him, feelings he never realized he had. The shiver of pleasure ran through him. He lowered one of his hands, running at along her profile. He knew that she was happy. He could tell that if their mouths hadn't been so intimate at the time, she probably would have moaned as his fingers lightly felt her skin.

Finn swore earnestly, "Jesus, I wish I was him" earning him a slap from Rosemary

"They must have had a lot of built up passion, its going on three minutes" Colin said, glancing at his watch, "And they don't look like they're going to stop anytime soon"

"Um hello? Rory? As much as we enjoy watching your little love fest, maybe you could finish up, we want to get on with the game" Stephanie whispered in Rory's ear.

Rory's eyes shot open, realizing that she and Logan had been making out for real, not just on a silly dare. She quickly pushed herself away, "Sorry, we weren't sure if time was up" Rory tried to lie

Logan smirked, whipping Rory's smeared lipstick off his face, "I'm defiantly picking dare when it's my turn"

"Ok, so do I get to ask now? Rosemary..." Rory drifted off, her eye's watching something by the door

The others followed her stare. Rory slowly got up, not realizing that she had still been straddling Logan, and hurried over to the shadowy figure. Stephanie was the first to break the silence, "Fuck, it's Dean"


That was ment to be a cliff hanger, you know, cause Dean hasn't seen Rory in over a month, so, well, just read and you'll find out what happens. Review!
