Hey meine Hübschen!

Da ich sowieso grad versuche, meine Hausaufgaben aufzuschieben, gibt es jetzt nen neuen Teil!

@ RoGirl - Danke für dein Fb, ich freu mich über deine positive Meinung. Tja, ich liebe selber eher die FFs die mehr funny und fluffy als angsty sind.
Gott, der Satz hört sich dämlich an, aber ich glaub du weißt, was ich meine. Und ein Bideoabend mit Finn war Pflicht

@ eve94 - Erstmal macht nix, du hast es durch die Länge des Fbs wieder wett gemacht. Auch bei dir freu ich mich über das Fb! Und dass du meine Ideen so toll findest ... ich fühl mich geehrt. Hoffe, dir gefällt der nächste Teil auch so.


So, nun Chapter 19:

A trip to Rio and an unpleasant encounter

The three were woken up the next morning by the ringing sound of Finn’s phone.
“Make it stop”, both Lorelai and Rory mumbled in unison. Finn groaned, but got up and went to get the phone.
“By the way, darlin’, I left Colin a message that we will visit them tomorrow!” he called over his shoulder. Rory, now awake, smiled happily at that.
“Why are you visiting them, hon’?” Lorelai asked, sitting up next to her.
“We want to see the baby.”
“It’s born?”
“Yeah, about a week ago. Colin called us, totally stressed out and told us that Steph went into labour and that he didn’t know what to do, ‘cause he sat in a waiting room and no one was there and he was going crazy and so on. It was quite funny, actually. At least it was from our point of view. We were at the beach house, on the private beach, and Colin wouldn’t let us end the call. So we put it on speaker and silently made fun of him while he freaked out.”
“Beach house?”
“Finn’s parents own it – it’s beautiful.”

Flashback

“We’ve done everything you wanted, kitten. Now we still have one week left. How about we visit our beach house?” Finn asked her one day.
“What beach house?” Rory was curious. She had learned a lot more about Finn while they had been in Australia.
“My parents bought it right after they got married. It’s beautiful, I always wanted to show you that place.”
“Sure, why not?”

A few ours later, they sat at the beach and watched the waves crashing on the beach. The sea was rough that day, but not too rough to swim.
“You want to go in there, don’t you?” Rory asked Finn after a while. He smiled down at her.
“Yeah, but we don’t have to if you don’t want.”
“It’s okay, you can go. I’ll just stay here and wait for you.”
“But it’s no fun without you!” he whined a little.
“But I’m afraid … the waves are so big …”
“I’ll protect you, kitten” he smiled down at her once more and as she nodded took her hand and together they ran across the beach and into the ocean.
Rory felt free. That was the simplest way to put it. After years of being Logan’s wife and smiling at all those stupid social events, even though she rather wanted to cry, she finally felt free of everything and independent in her decisions. She looked at Finn, who had closed his eyes against the salty waves. If he wouldn’t have been there for her, she would probably still be with Logan. She was thankful to have him, but even more so she loved him – in more than one way.
A moment later he tasted her salty lips on his and slowly opened his eyes. Blue diamonds looked back at him, with feelings he couldn’t quite describe swimming inside of them. He closed his eyes again and sneaked his arms around her waist. If love always felt so good, he would never refrain from it again.

End Flashback

Rory smiled as she thought about that moment. Her mother looked at her questioningly, but she just shook her head. That moment was something privat, only between her and Finn. It was special and she wouldn’t ruin it by telling someone, even if it was her mother.
Now Finn came back from his room, a smirk playing around his lips.
”Hey kitten, you wanna look at a new location with me?”
“Where?” she asked interested. It was always fun to look at one of the potential new hotels for the Morgan Company, it were the most beautiful locations. His smirk grew.
“Have you ever been to Rio?” Both Gilmore Girls stared at him with wide eyes.
“We’re going to Brazil?” Rory finally managed to get out.
“Yeah, I actually just called Colin and told him we would be visiting them today because my dad asked me to look at this place. It’s a small hotel owned by an older couple and they can’t hold themselves up, so they want to sell it to a bigger company. They’re especially interested in us, because dad promised them, they would still be able to manage it and so on, it would only be under our name. And as I’m closer to Rio than he is, he asked me to look at it. Are you in?”
“Do you even have to ask? Brazil, country of coffee. I’m a Gilmore!” Rory jumped up and down in joy.
“Well, well my daughter has become a globetrotter. Just got home and she’s already leaving again. And no time for her dear old mommy, who gave her the gift of live. I’m crushed!” Lorelai cried dramatically. Rory looked down at her mother and then into the twinkling eyes of her boyfriend. He nodded smiling.
“Mom?”, Rory asked, “Would you and Luke like to come with us to Rio?”
“I can’t”, Lorelai declined, “You know the Inn, and the diner – we can’t just jump up and leave like you two.”
“Neither can we. It’s only for this weekend – Friday, Saturday, Sunday – and Rory is starting her job at the paper Tuesday, so there would be no problem. But as soon as she starts the job, I’ll be destined to travel alone again …” Finn made a sad face, but Rory just laughed and kissed him.
“I’d have to talk to Luke about it, but you can count me in, babe!” Lorelai said cheery, then waved goodbye to her daughter and Finn and with an “I’ll call later today!” left the apartment.
“We’ll leave in about an hour kitten, how about you get ready?” Finn suggested after she was gone.
“Fine”, Rory said and, after another sweet kiss, entered the bathroom.

“Where is he? I want to see him!”, Rory demanded impatiently after Colin had let them in.
“Steph and he are in the living room, Ror. How about you go find them?” Colin suggested as if she was a child. Rory complied immediately and Colin turned to Finn, who watched his girlfriend’s back smiling.
“How are you, Finn?” he asked.
“Do you really need to ask?” Finn said instead of an answer.
“No, but I guess I wanted to hear it from you.”
“Well then … I’m happy Col, really happy. But I guess you know how that feels, I’ve been there after Steph chose you and only you.”
“’Kay. How about we go and listen to Rory and Steph while they’re gushing about how cute little Jacob is.”
“After you, mate”, Finn agreed and they made their way to the living room.

“He’s so cute! God, I can’t believe he’s Colin’s son!” Rory exclaimed as the two men entered.
“Thank you very much Gilmore, I’ll never let you live that down!” Rory smiled sweetly at Colin.
“You will, too. And if it’s just because I’m so pretty.” Colin only shook his head at that.
“So, what is the reason why you two came today and not tomorrow?” he asked sitting down next to his wife. Rory moved on the other couch next to Finn and replied smiling, “Business.”
“Which includes?” Colin asked, raising an eyebrow. Finn’s businesses usually included a trip to a fancy country or town.
“A trip to Rio, nothing fancy.” Finn smirked. He knew that Steph loved Rio more than any other town in the world. Just as much as he loved Sydney.
“Really?! God you’re so lucky!” Steph exclaimed, getting that dreamy glimmer in her eyes.
“Don’t even think of it, baby!” Colin said sharply, “We have a one week old son! We can’t go to Rio right now!” Steph pouted, while Finn and Rory tried not to burst out laughing.
“Aw, you’re no fun!” she said.

Later that day, Lorelai had already called and confirmed that Luke would come with them, the guys had left the girls, so they could have “some girl talk” like Finn had put it. Stephanie lightly swayed her baby and smiled at Rory, whose eyes were fixed on the little boy.
“I’m happy, Ror.” She stated. The other woman smiled.
“I know, Steph. It’s been your dream since I know you. You’ve never been the usual rich girl, who just wants to have fun and a rich husband. You always wanted that and now you have it. A job, a beautiful house, a husband who loves you and a son.” A hint of sadness was in Rory’s words.
“Ror, don’t be sad, because things with Logan didn’t work out. It’s not your fault, he just never really grew up so he couldn’t let go of his old behaviour. He needs the right woman for that and you were meant for another man.”
“I was, wasn’t I?”
“Believe me, you have found your prince charming, even if he’s eccentric and maybe not so perfect.” Rory smiled.
“He is just perfect for me. And I guess I’m just a little sad, because you having Jake reminds me of how I wanted to have my own family by now. And now I’m 28 and I’m not even married.”
“You’re gonna have that, just believe in it.”
“I do. And I know you’re right.” Rory smiled at the bubbly blonde, “Can I hold him?” Steph agreed and handed her the little boy. As she looked down at him, her smile faded a little. The sadness wasn’t entirely gone yet.

Back in Hartford a not so pleasant surprise awaited them.
“Logan?” Rory asked in disbelief. She felt Finn tense beside her. His left arm, loosely thrown around her waist, drew her a little nearer as he stared at Logan.
“Rory, I need to talk to you!” Logan exclaimed and with a pointed glance at Finn added, “Alone!” Finn was about to say something, but Rory shook her head and motioned for him to go inside. She saw the uneasiness in his gaze, but he complied.
“What do you want, Logan?” she asked, after the door had closed behind her boyfriend. Her voice was cold.
“I wanted to apologize and I want you to give us another chance.” Rory looked at him, her eyes just as cold as her voice.
“And now, Mr. Huntzberger, you have reached a new level of crazy.”
“Please, just listen to me! I’m sorry that I cheated on you and I’m sorry about what I said that day. But I was upset and I didn’t mean it! I know you love me, Rory. And I certainly know I love you. I promise I’ll be good. And I’ll be the right father for your child. Please, just come back!” Seeing him plead before her made her feel strangely good. She didn’t love him anymore, but it was satisfying that he at least saw, where his faults lay.
“I don’t love you anymore, Logan. Just go.” Her voice was calm.
“Come on, Rory. You don’t get any younger. If you let me leave now, you will never have a baby. With Finn near you, no other guy will come, you won’t marry and you’ll die alone and without any children.” Never mind, he was still an ass and didn’t see his faults.
“Logan, go. You don’t know anything!” Her voice got a few degrees colder if that was even possible.
“I …”
“GO!” He looked at her one last time and then turned to leave. Before he even managed to reach the stairs she had entered the apartment and slammed the door closed.

Even though she never would admit it, Logan’s words had done something to Rory. She sat down on the couch and looked at Finn’s closed door. She would have a child one day, wouldn’t she? About an hour she sat there silently debating within herself. Finally she just got up and made her way to her boyfriend’s door.
When she came into his room he was working. She leaned at the doorframe, unsure of what to do. Finally she decided that she should just get over with it and approached him slowly, startling him a little by hugging him from behind.
“We need to talk” she said. He looked up at her, his expression a little stressed.
“Not now, love.”
“Work’s bad?” she asked sympathetically.
“I have to keep five hotels in Connecticut up and running. Even though I have a manager for every single one it’s still a lot of work.” In reality he had just wanted to keep his mind off of the encounter that took place in front of the door. He turned around and upon seeing the look in her face, he asked, “What’s up?”
“I want a baby.”
