Und nun weiter mit dem zweiten Chappy:


Starting life like she wanted it to be

When Finn ended the phone call Stephanie tried to get up and asked him what happened. Colin looked at her worried. His wife was seven month pregnant and he didn’t want her to loose their baby. Finn looked at them, a smile spreading across his face. He was happy, that Rory finally left Logan. He never made her happy. No, he preferred to fool around with his secretaries and hurt her. There were too many times when she cried herself to sleep in his arms – and every time it was about Logan. Sometimes it was so bad that he desperately wanted to hurt his very good friend for doing this to her, but he couldn’t. So he just tried to calm her down. But now she was back to where she belonged. She was back to Stars Hollow and - most important – really happy! He started to tell his friends what happened.



Rory was about to go to Luke’s when she heard a car pull up and looked up. A huge smile spread across her face when he got out. Then she ran towards him and jumped into his arms. With this she almost knocked them to the ground, but Finn could keep their balance and hugged her back. It wasn’t really the welcome he had expected but he was glad that she was like this. In the last years she had always been a society wife – not the girl she was now, again.
“I’m so happy you’re here!”
“You already missed me, huh? Well, when it’s like that love we could find a lonely place somewhere and –”
“Don’t end this sentence Finn! Did you tell Colin?”
“Yeah and he said he would help you, after I told them the full story.”
”You didn’t do that?! What about Steph?” She started to panic about her friend.
“She’s fine Ror! She said she wants to visit you when the baby is there.”
They were still being in this happy hug, when Babette came up behind Finn and pinched his butt.
“Ah, Patty was right – still delicious! Nice to see you again Finn. “ He just smiled at the woman’s antics – he had somehow missed this little town and its crazy people.



Only five minutes later they sat down on a table in the diner, where Lorelai was waiting for them. She smiled at them and then eyed Finn.
“Hey Aussie-boy how is it going? I knew you would come here, but not that fast.”
“It’s nice to see you too, Lorelai. And I told Ror that I would be here this afternoon. How have you been?”
“Well let’s see: I married Luke, I live with Luke, Taylor makes everyone go crazy, your blond friend stole my child, Paul Anka discovered his fetish for my dark magenta dress – he steals it away from me every time he can – and so on. I think I’ve been good, except of the part with my stolen daughter.” Finn looked down. He felt a little guilty for not doing anything about it since now. He knew it wasn’t his fault, that Rory didn’t go back before. But then again she just needed someone to tell her it was the right thing to do, what he never did. His thoughts were interrupted by his cell phone.
“Hello?” he asked and ignored the look that Luke shot him.
“Damn Finn! Where are you?” It was Logan.
“Well, mate ...” He didn’t really know what to say to his friend.
“Colin doesn’t want to help me with the divorce. You should be here and help me convincing him!”
“Is Colin there? Put him on the phone, okay?” Finn handed his phone to Rory. She understood and stood up to go outside the diner and talk to Colin.

“What do you want from me Finn? I thought we agreed to help Rory dealing with this whole mess.”
“Hey Colin. It’s me, Rory.” Her voice was quiet.
“Ror? How are you holding up Hon’?” She smiled at the nickname. Finn and Colin had long time ago begun to call her nicknames like love, kitten, Ror, reporter girl or honey. Most of them were actually from Finn. First she tried to get them to stop it, but she got used to it with the time. It showed her how much they really cared about her.
“I’m good. Better than most of the last years actually. How is Steph? Finn said she is fine, but I don’t really trust him with that.”
“She was really worried when you disappeared. But now she is fine, she actually can’t wait till the baby is there, so we can visit you.”
“Good … So, are you going to help me with the divorce?”
“Of course, Ror! I think, even if I didn’t want to Steph would make me. We will speak again later this week, okay? At the moment Huntz looks like he’s going to kill me very soon!”
Rory closed the phone and went back into the diner, giving it back to its owner. It was good to know, that she had friends who helped her with the mess created by her soon-to-be-ex-husband. She happily chatted with her mom and Finn, basically catching up about the last five years. This night she fell asleep in Finn’s arms – the first time without crying. He wanted to sleep on the couch, but she had insisted on sharing a bed with him. They had agreed on beginning to search for a job and a home for her tomorrow. She planned on convincing Finn to stay with her – he worked from home so this would be no problem – and she wouldn’t be alone. This was the start for a live like she wanted it to be.
