A/N: I'm a horrible person. I haven't updated in forever because I am a lazy bum and had no inspiration to write. I made it extra long for you guys! Excuses aside, this chapter is my drama filled one. Drama is hard to write! I like fluff much better :) I hope you like it. For the record. I hate High School Musical. I cannot stand it. I only wrote it in the last chapter because it seemed like something Lorelei and Rory would like to watch and make fun of.
Disclaimer: I don't own Gilmore Girls. I do not on the song "Wedding Bell Blues." I own nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero!

FPOV(Finn Point of View)
"Hey! Have you seen my sparkly Venom Lip Gloss?" That was Lorelei, she was upstairs yelling to Rory as they had been doing for the past 10 minutes. I was currently dressed in jeans and a t-shirt lounging on their couch waiting for them to get ready.
"Yes I have, it's at school," Rory called back
"Well, as long as it's safe," Lorelei said sarcastically.
"What time is it?" 10:35 I thought to myself. We were supposed to leave thirty minutes ago.
"Ten thirty five," Lorelei answered for me.
"Rats!" I am in love with a woman who says rats to express frustration.
I heard a knock on the door.
"Rory can you get that?" Lorelei asked.
"I'm not dressed yet!" I found this strange. Usually she is an early bird.
"You're not? It's 10:35!" Apparently so did Lorelei.
"So!" Ah, there is that defiance I love.
"Fine, but that childish punctuality of yours has worn off,"
"Stop!"
"My Baby's a woman!" I chuckled out loud at the absurdity of this Mother-Daughter duo and their conversations.
"Rory! Who is in our house?" Lorelei called sounding scared.
"Mother! It's Finn remember?"
"Oh yeah! Sorry Finny! I am just not used to waking up with an exotic man in my house,"
"Why doesn't Finn get the door?" Rory wonders aloud. As I start to get up Luke walks in.
"Hello!" He calls to see if anyone is home.
"I don't think I need to get the door anymore!" I call out. I can hear Rory's laugh.
"Luke?" Lorelei yells. Who else would it be? Santa? Women….
"Yeah, the front door was open," Luke answers her.
"Hey Luke." I say as I stand up and shake his hand.
"Finn," he says curtly. I don't think he liked me that much.
"We'll be right there!" Lorelei says.
"Yeah Right," he mutters.
"Hi Luke!" Rory calls.
"Hey Rory, you know your front door was open? It wasn't like that all night was it?" I nod to him to let him know that it was and he rolls his eyes.
"Hey! You look nice!" Lorelei says coming down the stairs, they kiss. How sweet.
"You're not dressed," Luke says. Then I notice that he is in his suit. Ha.
"No, we're getting dress there," Lorelei says in a matter-of-fact kind of way.
"I didn't know you could dress there"
"Rory! Let's motor!" Lorelei says.
"I could have gotten dressed there," Luke is still complaining.
"Okay, I'm ready…Hey! You look nice," My Beautiful Rory finally comes out.
"Yeah, I didn't know you could get dressed there,"
"Don't worry about it," Lorelei fails at reassuring him.
"You didn't mention there was a place to get dressed there"
"Aw, we're late… Let's go!" We all follow Lorelei out of the house and into the car.
"Wait! Aren't you going to lock up?" Luke says, always a sucker for safety, "Oh forget it," He says as he follows us into the car.

FPOV ( still Finn's Point of View)
After a torturous half hour in the car with two crazy caffeinated Gilmore girls we arrived at the wedding. Time to meet the Grandparents.
"Well, there they are!" Emily greets us.
"Hello Girls," Richard only notices Lorelei and Rory.
"Sorry Rory had a little emergency,"
"So did mom,"
"Well I hope everything's alright,"
"Yes, just fine, how is everything going?"
"Horrible, but first I want to meet this man on Rory's arm," Emily finally notices me.
"Of course Grandma, this Finnegan Morgan, my boyfriend,"
"As in the Morgan's? The Australian Morgans? As in Dannon and Sabrina Morgan? They are our close friends." Emily stared open-mouthed.
"Really?" I asked knowing the answer.
"Well they were when you all lived in Hartford some years ago. We haven't caught up with them in ages," Richard told me.
"Well, I will tell them I saw you," I had my society smile on.
"Rory, you have quite a nice man here," Emily looked with admiration at her granddaughter.
"Indeed you do, we approve," Richard shook my hand. He is rather blunt.
"Oh Luke, you're here," Emily's broad smile crinkled up into a look people get when they smell rotten fish.
"Yeah, uh, have been actually," I'm guessing these two do not have a lovely relationship.
"Richard did you see Luke?" Emily continued.
"No, Why Luke, There you are," Richard played along.
"Hey Mr. Gilmore…Best…Congrad… Nice Suit," Ha, smooth.
"Thank you Luke, I can have my tailor steam out those trousers for you," Of course he would notice that Luke's pants were wrinkled from the ride. Luke had been whining about it the whole way.
"Ah Richard! That's not what he is wearing to the Ceremony, I'm sure he is going to change," only Emily Gilmore can insult like that.
"So mom what's bugging you?"
"I fired the wedding planner,"
"News flash to my mother! Who are you going to have run the wedding?"
"Calm down Lorelei! Marilyn flew in early for the wedding so she is going to take care of everything,"
Just then we heard a long drawn out "Emiiiiiiily!" It came from a woman who looked like cotton candy with some red hair on top.
"The Florist is Heeere! And everything looks Fabulous!!" she clapped her hands to together and had much enthusiasm.
"Really?!" Emily questioned happily.
"No!" Marilyn answered truthfully. When Emily looked crestfallen Marilyn grabbed her shoulders and assured her, "But it will… Lorelei you look divine… And Rory! That skin, gorgeous! I just don't have the words! Finnegan! Always nice to see you my dear! You're looking lavishly handsome as always."
"How do you know Finn?" Rory asked
"Me and his mother go way back," She answered with a wink at me. The times her and my mother had! I could tell stories for days. But then she spotted Luke, "And who is this?"
"Oh, Marilyn this is Luke, Luke this is my cousin Marilyn," Lorelei introduced them.
"Nice to meet you," Luke said politely
"You too,"
She pulled Lorelei over to the side and loudly whispered, "Is he a gardener?"
"Uh no, He owns a diner,"
"Oh, I have always wanted to have an affair with a gardener, apparently that is very in right now," See I wasn't the only one who knew that! "Well I have gardenias to deal with, Ta-ta!"
Richard and Emily said goodbye and I dragged Lorelei to the side while Rory and Emily went to the Bridal Room.
"Lorelei! Can you do something for me?" I whispered.
"Oh spy voice! Cool." Always the five year old.
"Focus Please,"
"I am a camera,"
"I want to give Rory a necklace. Take these two and when Rory isn't looking see which one looks better on her," I held out two necklaces that I thought would look good on Rory.
"Sure, sure," She says and walks away from me. I groaned knowing that this necklace was no longer a surprise.
*****************************************************************
LPOV (Lorelei point of view)
Boy, Finn really loves Rory. These necklaces are beautiful. I barged into the Bridal.
"Rory!" I bellowed. She poked her head around the dress rack.
"What?"
"Come looky!" I said beckoning her, "Finny bought some necklaces for yooou! Which one do you want?"
"Aw! These are so pretty!"
"Pretty freaking awesome!" I said summing it up.
"Um, That one," she said pointing to the one on my left.
"You two are great for each other," I said smiling at my daughter.
"I agree" said my mother, of course she has to go and ruin the moment. The smile slid off my face.
"Hmmpf, well anyway I had better go give these back," I said turning to go find Finn.
"Aw! Lorelei I need you to fix this dress!" My mother complained.
"Huh?" Great comeback Lorelei.
"This woman messed up my dress! I told her a simple beading but she can't even do that! It is ridicules!"
"Ah, Mom! Can't you just get the dressmaker to do it? I know that she is on call!"
"Lorelei! When a woman gives birth to a crack baby you do not give her a puppy," leave it to my mother.
**********************************************************************
RPOV (Rory Point of View)
My mother walked up the aisle beautifully. I saw her wink at Luke; they are perfect for each other. Speaking of perfect for each other, I glanced over Finn in the third row, bridal side. What I saw made me frown. He was flanked by two blonde bubbleheads. Ms. Blonde-Boobshell was whispering in his ear. On his other side Ms. White-tooth-Fish-for-brains had her hand on his thigh.
The good news is he pushed the handy one away and shrugged off the busty one. He smiled at me while rolling his eyes and made the universal sign for disgusting: sticking a finger down his throat with his tongue out. He might be a god, but at least he only has eyes for me.
My attention was diverted when my grandmother started her trip down the aisle. She looked radiant but I turned my gaze and looked at my grandfather. The love I saw as he was looking at my grandmother moved me and I suddenly got all emotional. Damn, I promised myself I wasn't going to cry.
My grandpa loved my grandma more than anything in the world. I casually looked over to Finn. Unlike everyone else, he was looking at me. One day I hoped that I would be the one walking down the aisle towards Finn, seeing the same look on his face as my grandpa's. I reluctantly tore my gaze off Finn and the wedding continued.
******************************************************************
RPOV (Rory Point of View)
I met up with Finn after the wedding and unfortunately the Blonde Bimbos were still stalking him, the creepers. He walked up to me.
"Hello love," He gave me kiss on the cheek
The Blonde-Boobshell coughed and looked from him to me.
"Oh this is Candy," he pointed to the Boobshell, "and this is Crystal," he said pointing to the one with the blindingly white smile, "and ladies, this is my girlfriend, Rory Gilmore."
"You're wearing a suit," Crystal said looking with disapproval at my outfit.
"Well, that's because I'm the best man," I answered trying to be polite.
"Mmhm," Candy looked away.
We were saved by the entrance of Mr. & Mrs. Gilmore. Finn and I quietly went to go and find our table.
"Thank you," Grandpa cleared his throat, "On behalf of myself and my second wife, Emily; I would like to thank you all for coming here and helping us celebrate. You are all good friends and we are very, very lucky.
"In planning our traditional first dance. I gave a lot of thought to the song that would represent the next phase in our marriage, the best phase in our marriage I believe. I went over all the greats: Bennett, Sinatra, Chuck Barry. And a story popped into my head. Now most of you know my daughter, Lorelei. When Lorelei was three she went to a period of having chronic ear infections. It was horrible, screaming all night long, we couldn't keep a nanny longer than a week. So, it fell to Emily to sit with her all night long. She tried everything to calm her down. Finally, she found a song that seemed to soothe her. It was a popular song on the radio and it soon became Emily's favorite. Of course it drove me crazy. Some woman whining about how she wanted to marry a man named Bill. Not exactly Cole Porter. Emily would tease me saying 'if only your name was Bill then this could be our song.' Well Emily, for tonight and tonight only, my name is Bill. And this is our song." The band started playing as just about everyone in the room joined in an "Aw."
"Hit the button Johnny,"
Bill, I love you so, I always will
I look at you and see the passion eyes of May
Oh, but am I ever gonna see my wedding day
I was on your side Bill when you were loosin'
I never scheme or lie Bill, there's been no foolin'
But kisses and love won't carry me till you marry me Bill
I love you so, I always will
And in your voice I hear a choir of carousels
"At this time if you're in love, we'd like to invite you to join Emily and Richard on the dance floor," the DJ announced. Finn led me to the floor while my mom roped Luke into dancing.
Oh, but am I ever gonna hear my wedding bells
I was the one who came runnin' when you were lonely
I haven't lived one day not lovin' you only
But kisses and love won't carry me till you marry me Bill
I love you so, I always will
And though devotion rules my heart I take no bows
But Bill you're never gonna take those wedding vows
Come on Bill
Oh, come on Bill
Come on and marry me Bill
I got the wedding bell blues
Please marry me Bill
I got the wedding bell blues
Marry me Bill
I started to wonder once again as I looked into Finn's emerald eyes if I would be wanting my wedding vows with Finn. He smiled and it melted my heart once again. Then Candy walked up and asked to cut in.
"Sorry love," he said, "I am a one woman man," he answered looking at me.
He called her love. Then the rational part of my brain left the building and the hormonal woman side came up again. I couldn't take it. Those girls, they were prettier than me. They had bigger boobs and whiter teeth. Perfect hair and legs for days, I couldn't live up to them! I'm fooling myself with Finn. I may be what he wants for a while but not forever.
"I-I can't do this," I said backing away from him.
"Kitten?" His smile melted and his face fell. I walked off the floor, "Love, Rory! Wait!" He called desperately and ran after me.
I went down one of the many winding hallways and barged into a random room. Finn came in seconds later.
"Rory! What's wrong love?" He said his face a combination of sadness and confusion.
"I can't do this," I answered my arms falling limply at my sides.
"What do you mean?"
"I-I'm not what you want," he started to protest but I cut him off, "Maybe I am for now, but not forever. Finn! I am in love with you! I can't get in this deep when I know that you aren't going to love me forever. You are going to change your mind someday and want one of those Candys or Crystals or Tinas or Barbie! You don't want me! I can't handle it. I need to get out while I can!" I looked at him wildly after my rant. The damn man just looked at me smirking!
"Lorelei Leigh Gilmore, you are special," he started
"Eating the paste kind of special?" I cut him off again.
"No, the wonderful kind of special. I love you and only you. Those blondes and girls like them just don't do it for me. I like you. I will love you for as long as you let me. I love you Rory, Kitten, Love. I am in for goo-" I cut him off once again by launching myself at him. My lips connected with his and sparks flew. But he pulled away and there was a playful smirk on his face.
"Woman! Are you ever going to let me finish a sentence?"
I asked earnestly, "really? You meant all of that?"
"Yes, really," He put the necklace on me. And then I launched myself at him again.
I do not know what was wrong with me, I just needed him today. He is like my drug!
"Rory? Are you sure you want to do this? Here? Shouldn't it be more romantic and not in a spare room at your grandparents vow renewal?" Aw, how cute. Too bad I didn't care where we were. I love him and want him.
"As long as I'm with you I don't care where we are," I said earnestly.
He kissed me again and then my world came crashing down… Guess we should have locked the door.
****************************************************************
LPOV (Lorelei Point of View) Meanwhile…
The Ceremony went beautifully, as planned by my mother. Unfortunately Christopher came. We safely avoided him for most of the evening. We danced; I actually had fun dancing with spazzy Luke. I love him…anyway I noticed Aunt Totsy.
"Luke! Do not. I repeat DO NOT hug this woman," I pointed her out.
"Why?"
"You hug her and you smell like her for a month!"
"Alrighty," that's right buddy just believe me.
"Hey guys!" and leave it to Christopher to interrupt us.
"Hello Christopher," I said coolly.
"Hello Lore, Luke. Ha, your names both start with L," He was drunk this was not good.
"Yeah, how about that?" Luke answered. He did not like this.
There was an awkward silence and then Christopher ended it.
"Lore, I love you," he blurted. Well it was slightly slurred.
"What?"
"Me and you, we belong to together. Everyone knows it. You're with him," he pointed to Luke, "But that is just for now, not forever. Me and you! That's forever Lore!"
"Don't do this Chris, not here," I said. He was making a scene.
"Fine, let's go then," he walked away pulling me with him down one of the winding hallways. He pushed into a random room. Luke was following and I went back to talk with Luke.
"Luke-I-"I was cut off when I heard Chris screaming.
"What the Hell are you doing?!" I heard him yell.
I ran into the room Chris was in. I saw Rory and Finn. Unfortunately shirts were unbuttoned, hair was in disarray and they looked surprised.
"Get your hands off of my daughter!" Chris yelled at Finn, "Get away from her! That is my daughter! I will kick your ass!" I was pulling him out of the room. Once he was out I smiled at the two love birds.
"Use the back way out please," I said with a smile. I went back out to face the storm.
"Who the Hell was that pawing my daughter Lorelei?" Chris yelled.
"Finn her boyfriend," I said calmly.
"So why didn't I get to meet him huh?"
"I don't know. I just met him yesterday me and Luke had Lunch with them," I quickly shut up knowing I hit a nerve.
"Oh so the Diner guy gets to meet my daughter's boyfriend before me?"
"You have no say about what goes on Rory's life!" Luke butts in.
"And you do?"
"Yeah. Where the hell were you when she got the chicken pox and could only eat mashed potatoes for a week? Or on her first day of college? Who dragged that mattress into her dorm, out of her dorm, and then back into her dorm again? Me that's who!" Luke yelled back.
"She is my daughter! Mine. Not yours. Hers but not yours, Mine and hers but not yours!"
"Hey! Listen!" I tried but it didn't work. Chris just turned to me.
"Lorelei we belong together. Emily knows it and I know it and I know you know it!"
"You're drunk!" I yell at Chris.
"I gotta get out of here!" Luke says exasperatedly.
"Luke!"
"No. Lorelei. This is too much. I can't deal with it anymore. I'm done. We are done," and he leaves just like that.
"Aw, Lore I didn't mean to do that," Chris looks slightly sorry for what he did but not much.
"Go Christopher, now," He turned and walked away. For once he listens. But now, I'm alone. I sink down to the floor and start to sob. The uncontrollable snot filled sobs that shake your whole body. This is how Rory finds me.
"Mom? What happened?" She sits down next to me, "its okay,"
"No, no it's not,"
A/N: Did you like it? Hope so. Feel free to tell me it sucked. I won't brake. As you can see, I changed it a lot to fit my story. I hope it made sense. It was kind of confusing with so many different points of views. The links to pictures of the necklaces are on my profile. I can't decide which one I like more. I'm leaning towards the pearl. Just tell me which one you like more in the review or PM me. You guys get to decide which one Finn gives to Rory! REVIEW PLEASE. Reviews motivate me to write more!
