Last time:
I turn not believing, "Love?"

RPOV
He turns around with disbelief in his voice. I know that he probably hates me for leaving so stupidly but I don't care. I just couldn't let him go. I couldn't leave because I know that when I came back it would never be the same.
"Yeah," I answer quietly looking at my shoes.
"You're supposed to be on your way to Chicago," He says. I know this.
Earlier this morning
"Now boarding Flight 124 New Haven to Chicago," said the intercom blaring into the gate seating area. But I couldn't make my feet get up and walk onto that plane. I got up and walked back down to the coffee cart near security. Some guy is arguing with a guard trying to get in.
"Look, I have to get in; I need to see my girlfriend!" wait I know that voice. It has a sexy Australian accent with it. I whip my head around and stare as my Ex-(I swallow bitterly) Boyfriend argues with the security guard.
"Sorry sir, no entrance without a boarding pass," The guard is looking angry.
"Do I look like a terrorist?" Finn actually does kind of look like a terrorist with the wild look in his eyes. He sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose looking sad, "Your not going to let me in are you?" Then he just leaves. Just like that.
Did the morning come too early
Was the night not long enough
Does a tear of hesitation
Fall on everything you touch
Well, it might just be a lesson
For the hasty heart to know
Maybe leaving's not the only way to go
Last night I was so blinded by frustrated rage that I just left and didn't think twice. I didn't have time to think about it last night and this morning came so quickly that I just left and blocked it out of my mind. For the first time I let my sadness of pushing Finn out of my life overcome me. Tears squeeze out of my eyes as I hesitate to board the plane and go to Chicago.
"Last call boarding for Flight 124 New Haven to Chicago," the intercom announces forcing my decision.
I admit that maybe, my heart was so hurt by Finn that I acted too fast. But maybe my heart was right for breaking it off. Then, if it was right then why is it aching for Finn so much? So maybe, just maybe, leaving is not the only way to go.
I can go backwards. I can go out the airport doors and find Finn. I can do that and nothing is stopping me. So I go back to the gate, gather my stuff and go back through airport security and to my car. I drive for what seems like hours but is only minutes. I look for him around the parking lots until I find him, sitting on top of a truck in the middle of a deserted parking lot watching airplanes. I get out of my car and walk up to where he is. But he makes the first move and gets down.
"Goodbye Rory," he says looking up to the sky.
Tentatively I ask him, "Who are you talking to?" and then he turns around.
******************************************************************
"I know but I couldn't let you go," I state looking him straight in the eyes.
"Finn..." I start to say at the same time He says "Rory…"
"No, let me say this," I say and he nods, "I am really mad still. I didn't leave because I want to work this out. I love you. But it doesn't change what you did. When I saw you arguing with that security guard in there I realized that you really do love me too. So I didn't go."
"No Rory. Listen, you had every right to leave. Actually I think you should have. I wouldn't give me any more chances. I screwed everything up really bad, everything. I'm sorry and I finally understand why you left. And I promise that I will be better. And this speech is really cheesy but I don't know what else to say. Other than I'm glad that you didn't go to Chicago." He waits as I think.
"No more getting drunk every night?" I ask of this new Finn.
"No more."
I run at him full speed and kiss him full on the mouth. He looks surprised and then kisses me back. With the spring air and Finn arms around me I feel better than I have in a long time.
We stay there for a long time until Logan calls and demands that Finn bring his truck back. So we leave the airport and go back to Yale. I'm sure Lane will understand.
Finn and I might not be together forever. But we are together now, and its enough. If I don't get to spend forever with him, I still have this moment here, because right now is all that matters. Right now, with Finn.
A/N: See! So short, but it got the point across. I hope you liked it. I was going to end the story with this chapter but then I decided I didn't want it to end yet so I'll add more Review please, it makes me happy.
