Chapter Twenty Seven

After the last movie went off Robert left. Rory had walked him to the door and he had kissed her goodnight with a promise of a call the next day. Rory turned around and looked at Finn who was standing behind her making kissing noises. "You know Finn, if you keep that up I'll tell Luke you grabbed my mom's ass and he'll kill you." Rory said looking dead serious

Finn stopped immediately and his face visibly paled. "I'll stop."

"Good." Rory said smiling

Finn trailed behind her. "So… are you staying here tonight?"

Rory nodded. "I had planned to, yes. Why?"

Finn smiled and ran to Rory's room. Rory looked puzzled and ran after him. When she got to his room he was cuddling up under the covers on her bed. "Come on luv. Time for bed."

"Finn what are you doing in my bed.!" Rory said loudly

Finn smirked and wiggled his eyebrows. "Getting comfortable luv, why don't you join me?" he said suggestively

Rory rolled her eyes and smiled. She walked over to her door and shut it. She kicked her shoes off and looked back at Finn. "Scoot over."

"Absolutely luv, absolutely." Finn said making room for Rory on her bed.

Rory was awoken by an unending ringing. She went to roll over but was pinned under Finn's arm. She recognized the ring as Finn's cell phone and tried to wake him up. When he was unaffected by her and the ringing she pulled herself out from under his arm and grabbed his phone. She didn't think to look at the caller id and answered the phone. "Finn's sleeping. He'll call you back you later." And then she hung up the phone and went back to sleep.

"Finn's sleeping. He'll call you back later." Logan heard Rory's voice say.

"Did you get a hold of Finn?" Colin asked from the other room

"No, but I found him."

"How did you find him if you didn't talk to him?" Colin asked unsure

"A girl answered his phone."

"Ahh… Finn has a new flavor of the week. How come he didn't tell us about her? Do we know her?"

"Rory answered his phone." Logan mumbled

"What?" Colin asked since he couldn't understand Logan

"It was Rory." Logan said loudly

Colin's jaw dropped slightly before he could stop it. "I don't think he slept with her last night Logan."

"I know that." Logan said defensively

"Do you, because the look on your face says otherwise?"

"Shut up Colin."

Colin shook his head. "Logan they are just friends. You wanted us to be friends with Rory."

"I didn't want you to have sleepovers with her though."

"Why?"

"She's my…" Logan started to say girlfriend, "I'm dating her."

Colin knew what Logan was about to say but decided it was better not to acknowledge it at the moment. "I bet Finn was just too tired to drive home last night."

"I don't care! We had rules!" Logan said not realizing what he had said

Colin's eyes lit up. Just the opening I was looking for Colin said to himself. "Logan they weren't on a date. Your rules don't apply. And about these rules…. What kind of no strings attached relationship involves rules?"

"The kind me and Rory are having." Logan said

"Logan it's not a no strings attached relationship when as many feelings are involved as you and Rory."

"What are you talking about?"

"Do you care about Rory?"

"Yes."

"Do you want to be with Rory?"

"Yes."

"Is she still seeing Robert?"

"Yes."

"When's the last time she saw him?"

"Last night. They had a date."

"Did it piss you off?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"I don't know."

"I think you're jealous. Are you jealous?"

"No."

"I think you are."

"I'm not jealous of Robert."

"They've been on how many dates now?"

"At least four."

"I wonder if they are involved in a no strings attached relationship too?"

Logan looked shell shocked. He hadn't even thought about that. "I don't think so. I think she would have told me."

"Why?"

"It's one of our…"

"Rules." Colin interrupted

"Yeah."

"OK, so you're not jealous of Robert. Are you mad at Finn right now? I mean, because he's waking up next to Rory right now"

Logan's eyes clouded over in what Colin could only describe as pure jealousy. "He is not waking up next to her. He probably just left his phone in his jacket and his jacket in Rory's room. I probably woke her up and she's probably killing him right now."

Colin was about to say how naïve that was but Logan started walking out of the room. "Where are you going?"

"Shower. And then to Stars Hollow. This standstill me and Rory have been at has lasted way too long." Logan said before shutting the bathroom door.

Colin laughed slightly and picked up Logan's phone and to get Rory's number. He typed in an R in the search field and looked for Rory but it wasn't there, then he typed in A to look under Ace and was surprised when he still couldn't find it. He then started from the beginning and realized that there were only about eleven numbers in Logan's phone now. There was him and Finn, of course, and Mitchum's work number, The Huntzberger's house number, Stephanie, Robert, Seth, Lanny, Honor's cell and home number, and a number listed under LL. Colin scrunched his face up in confusion. This phone used to have at least a hundred girls on here, where the hell did they go? And who the hell is LL? Colin thought to himself. Deciding that his curiosity was far to great not to call whomever was LL he hit the call button and placed it to his ear.

Finn woke up when Rory's phone and reached over to answer it. "Hullo?" he asked sleepily

"Finn?" Colin asked confused

"Yeah mate. What are you doing calling this early?"

"I think I misdialed. I was trying to call this number in Logan's phone and I must have hit your cell instead."

"No mate, this isn't my phone. This is Rory's phone."

"Rory?"

"Yes, Rory Gilmore. The brunette reporter girl that we've all come to adore." Finn said reminding Colin

"Yes, Finn I know who Rory is, but what I don't know is why Rory was listed as LL in Logan's phone."

Finn shrugged then realized that he couldn't see the gesture. "I don't know mate." There was a pause and Finn added, "Again I ask what are you calling this early for?"

"You're with Rory."

"I thought that was already established." Finn said. He was about to say something else when he felt Rory shift beside him. "Hold on a minute. I have a beautiful female waking up next to me."

Colin rolled his eyes and smiled as Logan walked out of the shower. "Who you talking to?" Logan asked

"Stephanie." Colin lied and watched Logan walk into his room

Colin turned his hearing back to Finn. "Finn you answered my phone!"

"It was ringing luv."

"Well who is it?"

"Colin."

"Oh while I'm thinking about it someone called your phone this morning."

"You answered my phone!"

"You answered mine."

"Well who was it?"

"I don't know I answered with Finn's sleeping call back later, and then hung up."

"Well doll that was rude. Hand me my phone."

"Hand me mine."

Colin heard a scuffle and assumed it was them switching phones. "Colin?" Rory asked

"It was Logan."

"Huh?"

"That called Finn this morning it was Logan."

Rory's face paled and Finn noticed it. "Rory, luv what's wrong."

"Logan called you this morning."

"When?"

"When I answered it."

"Oh." He said taking the phone from Rory. "Colin?"

Colin was distracted by Logan. "Hey Colin?" Logan called from the kitchen "Have you seen my phone?"

Logan walked into the room and saw his phone sitting in Colin's hand. "Why are you on my phone Colin?"

"I don't know."

"Colin…" Logan said snatching the phone away from Colin and looking at the call info. His face froze when he saw that Colin had been talking to LL. Colin noticed this and smiled. "Why were you talking to Rory?" Logan asked through gritted teeth

Colin shook his head. "Not were, are…."

"What?"

"I am currently talking to LL."

Logan's face paled a little bit and he put the phone up to his ear. "Hey Ace."

"Huntzberger." Came Finn's voice

"Finn. I thought I was talking to Rory."

"I'm bringing her back in what luv, and hour?" he asked Rory who nodded.

"Why isn't she driving back herself?"

"She's leaving her car with her mom for a few days." Finn said

"Oh." Logan said

"By the way. Why LL?"

Logan groaned and hung up the phone. Finn smiled and looked back at Rory, who was also smiling. "What are you smiling at doll?"

"LL."

"Why? You know what it stands for?"

"Oh of course I do. And if you were really smart you would to." Rory said smiling and smoothing out her clothes.

Finn looked confused and Rory walked out yelling "Need Coffee."

Finn and Rory walked into the guy's dorm room about an hour and half later to see Logan and Colin sitting on the couch watching TV. Finn smiled. "I have brought back the lovely LL."

Logan stood up and walked over to Rory. "Good morning LL."

"It's not morning anymore MAC."

"MAC?" Colin and Finn said at the same time

Logan kissed Rory sweetly on her lips. He was about to pull her into his room when her phone rang. "Come on Ace ignore it."

"And the lady is an Ace again."

"Shut up Finn." Logan said nicely

Rory looked at her caller id. Robert. "I need to take this." Rory said looking at Logan who nodded. "Hey… I'm at a friends… I can't… Robert I can't just leave to go gallivanting around with you today…"

Colin looked at Logan and saw his jaw tense at the mention of Robert's name.

"I'm at Logan's… no I wasn't doing anything important… you promise?"

Logan's smiled faded completely when he saw Rory smile. He knew she was leaving now.

"Ok, I'll be there in ten minutes…. No, don't pick me up from here… meet me at my dorm in ten minutes Robert… I'm refusing to answer that Robert… Bye…" Rory said gathering her purse from the table. She looked over at Logan. "I'm sorry, I have to go. Call me later ok." She said before reaching up and kissing him goodbye. "Bye Finn."

Finn walked over to Rory and kissed her hand. "Thanks for an enchanting evening luv."

"Finn all we did was watch movies, and Robert was with us for that, and then go to sleep. There was no enchanting evening."

"Well then thank you for allowing me to wake up next to your beautiful self." He said making Rory blush and Logan wince.

"Bye Colin." Rory said before shutting the door.

After Rory was gone all eyes turned to Logan who just stood there looking at the closed door. "Maybe I'm a little jealous." Logan said quietly but loud enough for them both to hear.

"It happens to the best of us mate." Finn said smiling

Logan broke form his trance and looked back at them. The stormed into his room and slammed the door.

Colin looked at Finn and they both burst out laughing. Finn sat down next to Colin on the couch and Colin handed him Logan's cell phone. "What am I supposed to do with this?"

"Flip through Logan's little black book, I think you'll find something interesting." Colin said getting up and walking towards his room.

Finn flipped through the eleven numbers and then frowned. "Hey, what happened to it?"

"Looks like Logan did some weeding out in his little black book, leaving only little Ms. LL."

AN: Ok, so I know LL was incredibly simple but it works… plus I had someone review and asked if they were the only insane person who kind of wanted Rory and Robert to work out… to that I answer an extreme NO, I want them to work out for a little while too… makes it fun to write Logan's responses… read and review please….
