The Legend - A Gilmore Girls Fan Fiction

Chapter 39

I woke up before my alarm went off, out of sheer excitement of taking Emma to Disney today.  I smiled when I felt Finn's arms tighten around me.  I had been exhausted the night before, and so when he'd come to bed I didn't even know it.  I turned over on my other side to face him, and he looked at me with a smile on his face.  "Good morning" he whispered, brushing stray hairs tenderly from getting into my eyes.  I smiled, too, and he kissed me.  "I could get used to this, you know" he whispered, pulling me into him closer. 

"I already told you it would be hard going back to normal after sharing a bed for four nights in a row" I said with a laugh, kissing him more.

"Are you excited about today?  I can't wait to see Little Love's face when she realizes she gets the royal treatment today – I made her an appointment at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique – she's going to get her hair, nails and makeup done, get to pick out a princess costume and get VIP access to get to meet all the Disney princesses" he said, his face as happy and as excited to tell me as I felt when I heard it.

"You really did that for her!?" I asked in disbelief.

"Of course I did" he said, kissing me and I couldn't stop smiling.

"I'm so excited, and I love that this means as much to you as it does to me" I whispered.

"Absolutely!  I just want to spoil the crap out of her, Love, like – that's seriously becoming a major hobby of mine.  She definitely deserves it, she's such a great kid!  You've done an amazing job with her – and this is coming from a guy who was never particularly a kid person" he said with a laugh.

"You do a pretty good job for someone who isn't a kid person" I teased.

"How much time do we have before your alarm goes off?" he asked. 

"About ten minutes" I said.

"Mmm, so that means I have ten minutes of undivided attention to spend with my girlfriend, then" he whispered, the words coming out of his mouth, giving me goosebumps as he spoke them, and a smile grew onto my lips.

"Yeah, I guess it does" I whispered, as he kissed me again.  He held me close and I wrapped my arms around him.  He pulled me onto him playfully and I laughed in surprise.  I knelt over him, straddling him, with my hands resting on either the side of his face, pulling him into me even closer, and as the heat escalated, I found myself running my fingers through his hair, and he was caressing my back with his hands.  I wanted him.  I haven't felt this way in such a long time, and I just wanted him to be as close as possible.  Our connection was magnetic, that was the only way to explain it, and I couldn't get enough of him.  I have no idea why we waited this long to admit our feelings.  He sat us up, still kissing me between our gasps of air, and there was no question – he was definitely as into this as I was.

And then my alarm went off.

I whined a little, not wanting to come back to reality, but I knew we had to, for Emma.  Finn pulled away and pressed his forehead against mine, catching his breath, and he laughed, his eyes still closed.  "What?" I whispered, laughing a little myself.

"I've never felt – that was –" he tried to get out, between heavy breaths.

"Wow" I whispered, answering for him.

He nodded.  "Yeah, definitely wow" he agreed, "better than any damn fireworks, that's for damn sure" he panted, with another smile and another tender and sweet kiss.

"We need to get up" I whispered, kissing him again.

He nodded.  "I know" he whispered.

"But I don't want to" I whispered, kissing him once more.

"You know we have to" he whispered with a laugh, pressing his forehead to mine again.

"I know" I whispered with a nod.

"Plus, I'm suddenly in need of a cold shower" he said with a wink and I laughed.

"Yeah, I could see where one of those could be beneficial" I said with a smirky smile.

"You get up and get you and Little Love ready, I'll take my shower, and by the time we're all done, we can have breakfast together and then we should be about ready for our Princess' debut" he said, standing us up with a smile.

"I seriously can't wait to see her face" I said excitedly, as I went over to my suit case to put an outfit together for the day, settling on a pair of capris, a tank top with a button up shirt over it, and my white tennis shoes.

"Me either, Love.  I'll see you in a few" he said, kissing the top of my head and closing the door of the bathroom behind him.

I got dressed and walked out of the room to Emma's room.  I sat down on her bed and gently shook her awake.  She was disoriented for a moment, but then she sat up and hugged me good morning.  "Hi mommy" she whispered with a stretch and a yawn.

"Good morning, Princess!  Guess what!?  Finn and I have a surprise for you today!  All day long, it'll be just the three of us, and you're going to love it!" I said, hardly able to contain my excitement.

Emma jumped up at the sound of the word surprise.  She loved surprises and she wanted to know what it was.

"Let's get you dressed, Baby Girl!  Do you want to wear your princess shirt today?" I asked her.

"Okay!" she said, and we got her dressed.

"Are you hungry?  As soon as Finn gets out of the shower, we'll have some breakfast, okay, sweetheart?" I asked.

"I'm one step ahead of you, Love" Finn said, leaning in the doorway with a smile.

"Well that was fast" I said with a laugh and Finn smirked insinuatingly.

"Good morning, Uncle Finn!" Emma said, running and jumping into his arms.  He picked her up and carried her into the kitchen.

"Let's find this pretty little princess something to eat!" he said with a smile and she giggled.
