A/N: I have to say I was a little disappointed I didn't get more reviews from my last chapter. However, I know people are still reading, so I will try to be happy with that. Most of this was written last weekend while I was on a roll, so I decided to go ahead and post. The next chapter will hold the big stunt (no, no scaffolds will be in this story. That scene in GG is just too good to try to recreate.). I think everyone will appreciate what I have planned for that. In any case, please review, even if it's just a smiley face. It makes my day when I see numbers changing.

Chapter 10 – Another Saturday Night and I Ain't Got Nobody

Saturday morning Rory woke up with her limbs entwined with Finn's and her head resting on his chest. As quietly as possible she disentangles herself, hoping she won't wake Finn up. Fortunately, he sleeps like the dead, usually well into the afternoon.

She quickly makes her way to the bathroom, taking care of business then brushing her teeth. She'd taken a show last night after getting back from the banquet even though it'd been after two in the morning. With her morning routine done, Rory heads out to the main area of the suite in search of coffee.

As she heads to the kitchenette, she jumps when she sees Colin sittings the dining room table reading the paper.

"Morning, Rory," Colin says without looking up from the paper. "There's coffee and pastry if you want some."

"Wow, you do know my name," Rory says with a grin as she pours herself a large cup of coffee. She grabs a danish and napkin before moving to join Colin at the table. "Is Stephanie up yet?"

"Do you know the woman at all?" He asks with a laugh. "She's much like Finn, the later she can sleep in the better for all of us, trust me."

"Ah, so not a morning person then," Rory replies as she takes a bite of the pastry.

"The only time she gets up before noon is if she's going shopping," Colin says. "If she's up before noon it will be a miracle."

"Okay, then," Rory says, finishing the pastry and wiping her face with the napkin. "What's on the agenda for the day?"

"I think the girls are all relaxing by the pool, hoping to get a little color," Colin says, folding the paper and offering it to his companion. "The guys are trying to get together a water volleyball game. I think. Depends on if everyone gets up at a decent time."

"What time is the shindig for this evening," Rory asks, flipping through the sections of the paper and pulling out the front section along with the arts and leisure and comics.

"We're on our own for dinner, then the dance starts at eight. Did Steph show you the costumes for tonight?" Colin asks as he takes a sip of his coffee. He moves off to the kitchenette to get a refill, bringing the pot with him to refill Rory's cup too.

"No, she hasn't. Thanks for the refill," Rory says as she takes a healthy sip. "Everyone's been pretty closed-lipped over this weekend events. Finn didn't tell me about the twenty questions game from last night until a few hours beforehand."

"That sounds like Finn," Colin says with a laugh. "He loves to surprise people with awkward situations."

"Too true," Rory says. "So, what is tonight's festivities?"

"Don't you dare," Stephanie says as she makes her way to the kitchenette. "It's a surprise, though I think you'll love it."

"As long as it's not embarrassing," Rory replies. "What are we doing beforehand?"

"Taking it easy as we lounge by the pool and watching the boys play in the pool."

"Awesome," Rory says. "I can knock out another book for this week."
