Finn had been waiting in his plane trying to get into the city. All flights were temporarily grounded while the storm moved through the east coast. Finn was able to get as close as Philadelphia, but nothing beyond that. The battery on his phone died and he didn't have his charger. When he finally landed and got his phone charged, he got Rory's last message. This was the first time she ever called and left a message like that, he could hear the panic in her voice.

He decided he would drive the remaining two hours. It was better than sitting in Philly all night. What normally should have taken just over 2 hours took him 3 and a half. The roads were horrible. He sent Rory a message that he was on his way and to expect him in a couple hours. She didn't reply. He didn't know if that meant something happened or if she was able to fall asleep.

It was just after 3 a.m. when he reached the building. The power was still out, Finn was very thankful that the elevators had a generator allowing them to operate. He rushed straight to Rory's room, but she wasn't anywhere to be found. He went across the hall to get Logan to help him find her.

When he got to Logan's room, it was pitch black with only the faint glow from his alarm clock. It was just enough light for Finn to see he wasn't alone. "Ugh, of all nights for him to bring home a Sheila" he groaned to himself. This was too important of a matter, he was going to wake him up any way. As he got closer, he realized that this wasn't just any Sheila, it was Rory. Finn looked around closer and noticed Rory's clothing on the floor… panties included.

He quickly backed out of the room. He wasn't sure how he felt about it. He had so many thoughts racing through his head over the course of the night, it was a huge relief to see her safe. But, that relief was quickly followed by concern. Concern that maybe Logan took advantage of her in a vulnerable state. He has known Logan for many years, and that just didn't seem like a plausible theory. He knew they had chemistry, but considering how distraught she was earlier, he couldn't imagine how this played out.

Finn was exhausted, and rather play the wonder game, he decided to sleep and see what they tell him tomorrow… or today, depending how you look at it.

Rory woke first and felt the weight of an arm wrapped around her. It didn't take long for the recollection of last night to come back to her. She remembered the dream, the panic attacks, the power outage, and her "solution" to make it all better.

She took a deep breath, she didn't exactly have a plan on how to navigate this next part. She glanced at his alarm clock and noticed it was just after 6. She was sure he needed to get up for work soon and she needed to get ready for her appointment with Dr. Anderson. As she started to move out from under Logan's arm, he subconsciously grabbed and held her tighter. She tried again and successfully slipped out from under his hold.

She quickly got dressed and grabbed her phone…just as she was going to leave, decided the least she could do was tell him that. She turned around and went back and sat on the edge of the bed. Just as she was about to wake him, his alarm clock went blaring.

Rory screamed, jumped, and rolled off the bed. Logan reached over and turned the alarm off. He looked over the edge of the bed to see Rory laying there looking up at him.

"Well, this is new." He said groggily.

"huh?" Rory looked very confused.

"You, sneaking out on me. Usually that's my role."

"hm… I'm sure it is." She reached her arm up and he pulled her up. "I wasn't sneaking out. I just got dressed and was going to tell you I had an appointment to get ready for and your stupid alarm clock scared the crap out of me."

Logan was trying to force himself to listen, but all he could focus on was how very "cold" Rory appeared to be and that she didn't have anything on under her tank top. He really wanted to just grab her and pull her under the covers with him and hopefully repeat what happened last night. His anatomy was in complete agreement.

"Hello… did you hear me?"

Logan shook his head and brought himself out of his little daydream. "Yes, sorry. Appointment. Go. But, we really should talk about this."

"I know.. later." Rory stepped out of Logan's room and headed to the door. As she got closer, she noticed Finn's shoes. "Great… another awkward conversation." She said quietly as she knew without a doubt Finn would have been looking for her. She left for her apartment and got in the shower.

Logan got out of bed still thinking about last night. "Ugh, cold shower it is" he said as he stepped into his bathroom. He got dressed and came out to the kitchen to grab some breakfast. He noticed Finn's shoes by the door. "Great…. Can't wait for that conversation." He decided he would skip breakfast and grab something across the street. He wasn't quite ready for the Spanish Inquisition.

Rory was impatiently waiting for Dr. Anderson to come. She was trying to figure out what happened last night and how it all connects. She had started pacing but the latter events of last evening had left her a little sore. It had been awhile since her body had moved like that. She sat at the counter eating toast when Mr. Pearson finally buzzed her.

Rory anxiously told him about the knew details she remembered. She was confused though as to why she didn't remember everything, it seemed the scariest part was over. Dr. A informed her that there was very likely more and whenever she remembered the main issue she was blocking from her memory, the rest would all come flooding back. When that happened, it was going to be an emotional overload and her first step was to call him and to not handle it on her own.

He then got to the part Rory was hoping to avoid, he asked how she was able to process everything last night knowing full well it would have been extremely traumatic. Rory hemmed and hawed and finally just decided to come clean.

"I went across the hall and had sex with my neighbor." She said about as fast as she could, hoping she would not have to repeat it. Dr. Anderson's eyes went wide and opened his mouth to respond but stopped and instead started writing notes.

"Rory, you really should have called me. That is what I'm here for, to get you through all of this."

"I know, I was so scared. It was the worst feeling of my life and then the power went out and I was trying to get ahold of Finn, I just didn't know what to do. I couldn't make it stop." Her breathing was starting to get sporadic, she paused for a minute to regain her composure. "Logan was there, he was nice, he wanted to help." Rory just sat on the couch and held her face in her hands. She couldn't make eye contact with him.

Dr. A again went to respond and stopped himself… again he started writing more notes.

"Rory, I can't tell you to be celibate. But, there is a lot of stuff with Liam to work through before you start a sexual relationship with another man."

"It's not a relationship!" Rory was very quick to add.

"Exactly, just like you wouldn't call your time with Liam a relationship. Yet, he fell deeply in love with you. You were living together overseas, sharing a bed… you spent 7 months with him prior to that in a sexual relationship and you never felt a connection with him. That is not typical. We need to work on that as well as the missing memories."

"Ugh, why is my life such a giant mess." She just sighed, shutting off the conversation.

Dr. A knew he was pushing it with her. He programmed his phone number into his phone this time, so she would always have the after-hours number. They exchanged their good-byes and set up an appointment for Monday.

Rory was emotionally drained from her meeting and still very tired from not getting any sleep last night. She went back to her room and crawled into bed. She had no idea how long she actually slept but it felt really good to sleep without interruption.

Rory woke up to the glorious smell of coffee coming from her kitchen. She got up and strolled out to see what was going on. She found Finn sitting at the counter reading the paper.

"Well darling, never thought I'd see the day you would sleep longer than Finn." He said with a wink and handed her some coffee. It was after 4 p.m.

"Finn, I had my appointment with Dr. Anderson this morning, I was up early."

"Oh, is that so… long night was it? Have a tough time sleeping, did you?"

"Ugh… just say it, Finn. I know you saw me last night?"

"Saw you, whatever do you mean? I mean, I came here at 3 a.m. after driving on the worst roads of my life because I was worried sick about you, but you were nowhere to be found. Wherever would I have seen you?" Finn continued sipping his coffee and reading his paper as if nothing happened.

"You want me to say it… Fine, I slept with Logan. Are you happy?" Rory was going to need a lot more coffee for this conversation. "And, before you jump all over Logan, it was 100% my idea, I practically had to beg for it."

Finn did not see that coming and suddenly he just burst out laughing. He couldn't stop. He had tears coming down his eyes from laughing so hard.

"I'm glad this is so funny to you Finn." Rory did not share his amusement.

After a few more minutes, Finn got it together. "I'm sorry, Darling, but I'm really trying to figure how this all played out. I can't imagine anyone having to beg Logan Huntzberger for sex, let alone you."

"Well, I'm not kidding. He gave me some line about trying to be gentleman and just took my top off and sat on his lap." She took a line from Finn's book and continued sipping her coffee and reading her section of the paper.

"Bloody hell…. lucky bastard!"

"So…. Are we done with this conversation?"

"Well, you and I are, but I'm still going to have a little fun with my mate."

"Do what you must, but don't be mad at him. You can thank him for me, it really did work."

"Uhm… I think you can do your own thanking. I take it you didn't talk about it this morning?"

"Nope… I had to go. And don't worry, I'm not going to let it get weird between us. We can all be friends."

"hmm.. I didn't know that kind of 'friendship' was on the table." Finn feigned hurt.

With the awkwardness gone, Rory filled Finn in on her recent memory and her appointment with Dr. A. She left out the relationship issues he brought up. Finn told her he moved the St. Patty's party to Saturday so the rest of the group could all make it. They watched a couple of movies until Rory heard the elevator ding. She gave Finn a look.

"Go, talk to him, I'm going to go down to the pub. Tell Logan if he wants, he can join me later."

Rory kissed him on the cheek and gave him a hug. She went across the hall and knocked.

Logan was completely worthless at work today. He couldn't focus on anything and his dad called him out on it… twice! He told his Dad he was up most of the night dealing with the power outage in the building. Knowing their building was also without power, Mitchum actually cut him some slack. Sent him home early to get some sleep. Who knew Micthum Huntzberger had a heart?

He heard a knock on the door and went to answer it… "Well, I see you are back to knocking." He said as he looked at her with a smile.

"Yeah, wasn't sure where we stood. I didn't know if you were going to be mad or not."

"Seriously Rory, why would I be mad? A woman…. Scratch that, a very beautiful woman comes over in the middle of the night, wakes me from my slumber, and throws herself at me…. that is the foundation of which fantasies are made of, not anger."

"I'm being serious, Logan."

"So am I. I thought about you all day today… I was really hoping everything was okay, but I couldn't stop thinking about last night. That was amazing… and, if I'm totally honest, a little scary."

"I know, I'm sorry I'm such a mess."

"Don't be sorry. I'm glad I could help. And, feel free to come and get my assistance any time." He winked at her with his signature smirk.

"Logan!" She slapped him on the arm.

He just laughed… "So, you know Finn found us last night."

"That I do." Rory said with a half smile.

"How did that go?"

"… well, he had a little too much fun with it; but, he doesn't plan to kill you."

"That is good."

"So, we can move past anything awkward and just be friends."

"Friends." He said in agreement.

"Finn had to move the St. Patty's party to tomorrow. But, he's down at the pub if you want to join him."

"Hmmm… I think a beer sounds really good. Why don't you join us?"

"Logan, you know why."

"I know, just never hurts to ask. One of these days you will eventually say yes."

"Have fun, I'll see you tomorrow."

"Night, Rory."

A/N- So, a little less dramatic than you probably wanted. Have no fear, plenty more drama in the future. I've had several requests to write a sequel to my one-shot "Best Christmas Ever." I'm going to take this week and do that. I'll update this again later into the weekend. Thanks for reading and for all the GREAT reviews. Seriously, any ideas for me? Let me hear them!
