Once in a lifetime (A FinnFic)

Chapter 33: Rehearsal dinner

Three weeks later:

We have been in Stars Hollow for a week now. Tonight is our rehearsal dinner, and tomorrow is our wedding. Rory is getting dressed; we coordinated for our rehearsal dinner. 

Rory's dress is gold with black, and my suit is black with a gold shirt and tie. Rory steps out of the bathroom, and I knew the dress was sexy, but my goodness she has taken my breath away. 

The dress she is wearing is so sexy and the way she curled her hair. She is so gorgeous, and tomorrow she will marry me. She chose me to marry and spend her life with. I can't believe this is real, and soon she will be my wife. 

He walked over and held his hand out she linked her hand with his. He turned her around in her dress. He wrapped his arms around her waist. He leaned in and kissed her so passionately.

"Rory Gilmore, I just have to say you are absolutely gorgeous. I am indeed the luckiest man in the world that you have chosen to spend your life with me."

"Oh, thank you so much, Finny. You look so handsome as well, and truly I am the lucky one." She leaned up and kissed me.

We walked out of the room and went to the dining room to meet the others. We were going to the town square to have our rehearsal and then to dinner in Hartford. 

We arrived at the town square. Rory and I were talking to the pastor that is marrying us. We lined up and started the rehearsal. 

After the rehearsal, we went to dinner in Hartford. Finn couldn't keep his eyes off, Rory. Everyone noticed how he was watching her, and he looked so happy. 

"Hey, Finn, I can see how happy you are. Just to let you know you are drooling there a little bit. You are smiling like a kid in the candy store," Robert said.

"I am happy, Robert, really happy. I mean can you blame me, look at her she is a knockout. I am a very lucky man."

"So, no reason to think you will run away before the wedding?" Colin asked.

"No, not at all. My feet are going to firmly be planted at that altar. I am very impatiently counting down the hours until she will be my wife."

"That is good to hear my man Finn will be a married man tomorrow. We are so happy for you and Rory. You make a good couple, and we couldn't have picked any other woman better for you than Rory," Robert stated.

"I have already spoken to the pastor that if Logan stands up to object to continuing the service then he is to be removed from the ceremony. I can't wait to marry her. She is beautiful inside and out, and I am so in love with her."

"That's awesome, man truly. We can see that because all you have done is stare at her all night. Yes, she is a very beautiful person, and you are a better person. I like the fact that you aren't just sleeping with random bimbos anymore," Colin said.

They all sat down to eat, and Finn laid his hand on Rory's. He leaned in and kissed her. "I love you so much, baby."

"I love you as well, Finn. I can't wait to marry you tomorrow."

"Me either, love."

For the rest of the evening, they danced and made toasts to the couple. We all got a little buzzed. Rory and I had not slept together for four weeks. We decided it would make the honeymoon mean more to us. 

Right now, I am regretting that decision because she looks so hot in that dress and those heels. Plus the alcohol I have drunk, and just thinking about her is turning me on. 

She was staying the night at Lorelai's, and I was staying in our room at the Inn. The town square was decorated with tents for the ceremony, just in case it rained. The chairs were set up with white chair covers and a yellow bow on each chair. 

The table for the ceremony was set up with silver tablecloths and yellow centerpieces with the same chairs from the ceremony. They would switch the tents over after the ceremony. There would be a bar where everyone could enjoy drinks on the side of the gazebo while we took pictures.  

Finn and Rory were dancing and looking so cute together. They had a photographer for the rehearsal dinner as well as one would be with both of them and the bridal party as they got ready for the ceremony. 

"I love the way you feel in my arms, love. You complete me and tomorrow, we will complete each other. I just want you to know and understand how much I love you. I feel as if you were made for me. I loved you before I ever met you."

"Aww, Finn, I feel the same way. You are my person, my other half, the only person who knows me inside and out. You are my best friend and the love of my life."

Finn smiled at her, leaned down, and kissed her. They stood there dancing and kissing for a few minutes. 

"Rory, I have to stop that because I am already turned on, and I want you so bad. So, we have to be cautious."

"I know, baby. I am so glad our wedding is tomorrow, and we can finally make love. I have missed our passion and how great we feel when we are connected as one."

They walked off the dance floor and walked over to their friends and family. "I think it is time for us to head to our rooms and such for the night. Tomorrow is a very big day for my lady here and me."

"I agree, son, alright, everyone load into their limos," Griffin said. 

Rory and Finn's limo was going to drop the guys off first, then the ladies at Lorelai's. Rory was dreading the fact that they would be separated the whole night. 

The limo pulled up in front of the Dragonfly, and Finn, Colin, Robert, and Griffin stepped out. Rory stood outside with Finn. 

"Sleep well, babe. I can't wait until we get married in exactly fifteen hours."

"I will and you as well, love. I will be waiting at that altar for you to join me. Then I can finally breathe again."

"Oh, Mr. Morgan, I am not going anywhere. I will be the one in the cream-colored dress. I am more afraid of you not showing up."

"Oh, no way, Miss Gilmore, I will be there. I can't wait for you to officially become Mrs. Morgan. I will see you tomorrow. I love you, Rory, so much, baby."

"Great, now that we have that settled, we will both be there, and me either. I love you so much, Finn." She leaned up and kissed him so passionately. He helped her back into the limo and waved as she was driven away. 

Tomorrow would be the day he had waited for, and once they were married, they had a lifetime together. He walked into the Inn Robert and Colin were sitting in the chairs waiting for him.

They each wrapped an arm around him and walked to their rooms. Finn went straight into his room, stripped his clothes off, and packed them in his bag. His tux was hanging on the door. He laid down in his boxers and fell asleep, hugging a pillow as if it was Rory. 

Rory arrived at her mom's house they got out of the limo. Rory went straight to her room after telling the girls good night. She hung her dress back up and decided it was going with them on their honeymoon. She would have it dry-cleaned once they arrived at their hotel.

She threw on a shirt of Finn's she normally slept in. She smelled the shirt, and it smelled just like him. She was a little buzzed and fell asleep holding a teddy bear.
