The life I was destined for

Confessions

We all made our way back to the house. Rory goes to lay down and Finn joins her hoping he can calm her. We all sit down in the living room and Logan couldn't take the silence anymore

"What the hell was that?" He demands as they all sigh an start to tell him what they know.

"That was Dean" Colin says

"He was doing his creepy staring thing again " Honor says

"When she rested her head on Finn's shoulder he got this look on his face and we've seen it before too many times" Steph says

"What look is that?" He asks softly trying to get more answers to the questions flying around in his head.

"The possessive your mine and he can't have you" Josh answers

"I've seen that look before many times before" Paris states.

"The last time I saw that look we disappeared for a while" Tristan says angrily.

Logan, Robert, Colin and Steph give them a look of 'What are you talking about?' Tristan closes his eyes and when he opens them they are misty for the pain and hurt that Rory went through. He sighs and runs a hand through his hair

"He hurt her really bad in high school before we met you guys" Tristan says

"How does Honor know?" Logan asks

"I was dating Josh and with him at the time he got the call, his face went white as a ghost and all he said was he needed to go an told me why and I went with him" Honor says

"It was Tristan, Honor, Paris and I that took her away for safety and for her to heal." Josh says

"I don't know what he did but he got away with what he did to her" Tristan states angrily. Out of nowhere Finn and Rory walk into the room after her nap. Tristan holds his arms open for her.

"He won't hurt you this time, I promise" Tristan says softly and kisses her forehead.

"How bad were you hurt?" Colin asks trying to get more clarity on the situation, as the other look towards them for an answer.

"She sustained a broken rib, concussion, broken wrist and lacerations to her face and arms." Paris tells them so they understand the history. Finn moves towards Rory and pulls her close.

"Oh love he won't do anything anymore, I'll do all I can to protect you. I love you so much and you have my heart baby" Finn declares in front of everyone. Rory moves her head from his chest and looks straight up at him into his eyes

"You love me?" Rory asks

"Of course, I do, how could I not love such an amazing and beautiful woman" Finn says while smiling lovingly down at her. A smile creeps onto her lips

"I love you to Finny" Rory says an gives him a loving but passionate kiss and snuggles further into him. The silence was soon broken by a cell phone. Tristan stands up and goes into the other room and answers

"Hello?" Tristan says

"Hello son, Rory's grandparents told me about what happened with Dean the other day. Is she ok?" Marcus demands softly. He sighs as he answers his father

"She's shaken up right now" He states

"What happened?" Marcus demands, Tristan then tells him what happened an says that we'll talk more at dinner about what happened. He walks back into the living room and tells them all about the conversation he had with his dad.

"Oohhh he's pissed isn't he?" Paris asks

"You can say that again, he looks at Rory like a daughter an he's afraid for her" Tristan says sadly
