A/N: This story occurs during Rory's third year at Yale. Lorelai and Luke have been dating forover a year. Rory and Logan have been dating seriously for about 6 months. This is my first ever fanfic so I'd appreciate reviews so I can know what needs improvement.

Lorelai awoke with a start. She peered at the clock through the darkness. 4:30. Great. Why did I have to wake up, I'm not supposed to be at work for another 3 hours! She rolled over and saw Luke lying next to her. Luke? She thought. What's Luke doing here? She sighed and closed her eyes, trying to sleep again. After a while she rolled out of bed and tip-toed quietly out of the room and down the stairs into the kitchen, where she made herself a pot of coffee. She sat down on the couch waiting for the coffee to be ready. Her eyes started to sag shut, and she fell asleep.

Luke woke up and hour later to the smell of brewing coffee. Who's making coffee? He thought. He got out of bed, and realized he was in Lorelai's house. Suddenly it clicked. Lorelai's making coffee, of course. He wandered downstairs to find Lorelai asleep on the couch. He went into the kitchen and turned off the coffee maker, then headed back upstairs to get dressed. He showered quickly, put on jeans and a flannel shirt then left for the diner. As he was going out the door, he stopped at the couch and kissed Lorelai on the forehead.

At 10:00 in the morning, Lorelai stumbled into the diner.

"Luke! I need Coffee!" She cried as she sat down at the counter

"Coming right up. You're up late today." Luke commented

"I know, I know, I overslept! I have to get to the Inn, see you later?"

"I'll pick you up at 7."

"See you then Luke." She kissed him across the counter before running out the door. When she arrived at the Inn, Michel was waiting at the front door with an annoyed look on his face.

"Ah, finally, you have arrived." He said sarcastically.

"What do you want Michel?" Lorelai snapped

"The Johnsons have arrived."

"The Johnsons? But the cancelled last week!"

"Well apparently they decided to grace us with their presence anyway. I suggest you deal with them before I have to."

"Yes, I'll be right there." Lorelai hurried to the desk and apologized to the customers. At about 6, she headed into the kitchen. Sookie was making cake.

"Hey Lorelai!" Called Sookie "Try some of this cake, tell me what you think."

Lorelai took the slice of cake from her friend and broke a bit off. She chewed it thoughtfully. When she swallowed, a smile lit up her face.

"Sookie that is the most amazing cake I've ever tasted. You've out done yourself again."

"I'm glad you like it, it's tonight's dessert."

"I'm sure the customers will be thrilled. Coffee?"

"In the third pot." Sookie pointed

"Great, thanks. I've gotta run, Luke's picking me up in 45 minutes."

"Well have fun on your date! I'll see you tomorrow."

"Thanks Sookie, bye."

With that Lorelai left. When she got home, she noticed the message light on the phone was blinking. She pressed the button and the message played.

"Hi Mom, it's me. Just calling to see if it would be okay if I brought Logan to Friday night dinner. We have something to tell you guys. Anyway, give me a call when you get this message. Love you. Bye"!

Lorelai was puzzled. Something to tell us? Why wouldn't she tell me first? She decided against calling Rory right away. She was already behind, and she needed to get ready for her date with Luke. She bolted up the stairs and opened her closet. What to wear, what to wear? Luke hadn't told her where they were going, so it was hard to choose an outfit. Eventually she decided on a short blue skirt and a white top. Not too fancy, but not too casual either. She was just finishing her makeup when the doorbell rang.

"It's open!" She called down the stairs. The door opened and a few second later, Luke appeared at the bedroom door.

"Hey there, ready to go?"

"Yeah, you've got perfect timing. Hey what do you think about coming to dinner at my parent's tomorrow? Rory's bringing Logan so I figured you should come too."

"Ah… Sure Lorelai. Dinner sounds fine. But what do you want to do tonight?"

"I don't know, I thought you knew what we were going to do."

"Uh… How about a movie then?"

"A movie sounds great, but can we get something to eat first, I'm starved."

"Sure. The Diner okay?"

"That's just what I was thinking." Lorelai smiled and Luke helped her into the truck. They drove off to the diner and Luke cooked her a cheeseburger and made himself a salad, which they took to the Black and White Movie theatre. After the movie was over, Luke dropped Lorelai off at her house. He had early deliveries the next morning so he didn't stay. Lorelai called Rory when she got inside. Rory picked up after a few rings.

"Hey Mom."

"Hey Kid. So Logan's coming to dinner?"

"Yeah, is that okay?"

"I don't see why it wouldn't be. Luke's coming along too."

"Oh, cool. Well if that's all I should really get to bed…"

"Wait. Rory, what's the big announcement?"

"What big announcement?" Rory was puzzled

"You said that you and Logan had something to tell us."

"Well you'll just have to wait until tomorrow to hear that!"

"But Rory…"

"No buts Mom, I'll see you tomorrow."

"Fine. Bye Honey."

"Bye Mom."

Lorelai hung up. She couldn't believe Rory wouldn't tell her what was going on. It had to be something big, because she was telling the grandparents, but why wouldn't she tell her? The question stuck with her all through the night, and through the day, until they arrived at the Gilmore mansion. She and Luke waited in the car for Rory and Logan, and when they arrived, Lorelai leapt from the car to see her daughter.

"Rory!" Lorelai called

"Hey mom!" They ran together and hugged. As they were hugging Rory whispered in her mom's ear. "Hey Mom?"

"Yeah Kid?" Lorelai whispered back

"Do you have a tampon I could have?"

Oh my god… Lorelai stopped hugging for a second, her arms slackening around her daughter. Rory realized something was up right away.

"Mom? You okay?"

"Yeah, yeah. Sorry, what was it you wanted?" Lorelai recovered quickly

"A tampon, do you have one?"

"Yeah, there's some in my purse. You can have one when we get inside."

"Great, thanks." Rory started towards the door, leaving Lorelai standing in the driveway looking stunned. "Come on Mom!" Called Rory. She was now standing on the doorstep.

"Hey Rory, can you come here a minute? There's something I need to ask you."

"Uh yeah Mom, sure…" She walked apprehensively back to her mom. "What's up?"

"I'm late." Said Lorelai shakily

"What? No, we're on time, it's only 6:30."

"No, I mean late."

"Oh! That kind of late… Are you sure?"

"Yeah. When you asked for that tampon I realized."

"Well when did you last have it?"

Lorelai pondered before she answered. "June 15th."

"What? But that's almost two months ago!" Rory almost screamed the words

"Shhh, not so loud! And yes, I know it was two months!"

"Well… Do you think… you're…" Questioned Rory

"I don't know… It's a possibility."

"Well after dinner we'll go to the pharmacy and get a test, okay? For now, you've got to relax."

"I can't wait until after dinner, I have to know now!"

"We don't have time to go now. You can wait."

At that moment, the door opens and Emily sticks her head out.

"Ah, I thought I heard voices! Come in, come in! Logan, Luke, nice to see you two again."

"Nice to see you too, Mrs. Gilmore." Replied Luke.

They all went into the house. Emily led them out to the back patio where Richard was sitting.

"Good evening everyone." Richard said, standing up

"Evening Dad." Said Lorelai

"Hi Grandpa, you remember Logan?"

"Yes, Mr. Huntzberger. How are you?"

"Fine, thank you Sir."

"Please, call me Richard. What would everyone like to drink? A martini for Lorelai, I presume."

"Yes, a martini would be great. Rory and I are just going to run to the bathroom though, we'll be right back."

Rory and Lorelai left hurriedly. When they got to the bathroom Lorelai hands Rory a tampon.

"Thanks Mom. I'm pretty sure I got "it" on the way here."

"I see."

Rory goes into the bathroom and Lorelai waits outside.

"Do you think I'm pregnant?" Lorelai asks when Rory comes out of the bathroom.

"I don't know… You're sleeping with Luke obviously, and you're two months late, so I'd say probably yes."

"Oh…" Lorelai sighs.

"What? Don't you want to be? Does Luke know?"

"I don't know, and no, he doesn't."

"Well after dinner we can go and get a test okay?"

"Okay. You'll come with me?"

"If you want me to."

"Yes, I do."

"Okay. We should probably get back."

"Yeah."

After dinner is served and everyone is finishing up, Rory chooses to make her announcement.

"Uh, can I have everyone's attention please? Logan and I have an announcement to make."

"Ooh, tell us!" Squeals Lorelai

"Okay. Well, as you all know, Logan's dad owns some very large newspapers."

"And…" Lorelai pushes

"And he has offered us both jobs at the New York Times!"

"Wow Honey, that's great!" Lorelai gets up and hugs her daughter.

"Very well done, Rory. I always knew you'd be successful." Said Luke. Emily and Richard were speechless and beaming with pride.

When dinner was over and everyone had aid their goodbyes, Rory and Lorelai agreed to meet Luke and Logan back at the diner after they did some chores. Rory and Lorelai drove off in the direction of the pharmacy and were relieved to see that it was still open. They went in and Lorelai bought herself a pregnancy test and Rory some tampons. Lorelai was so anxious that after they had paid for their things, she decided to take the test in the bathroom at the pharmacy. She went into the bathroom and locked the door. She read the instructions on the box, and, realizing nothing had changed since she had last used one, took the test. Then she put it back in the box and the box in her purse and left the bathroom. Rory was waiting for her in the car.

"So? What's the verdict?" Rory asked the moment her mom got in the car

"We'll just have to wait a little longer. These things don't happen right away!"

"I know, I know. But you took an awfully long time in there, I thought maybe you'd waited for the answer."

"No, I didn't. Let's get going now though, it's getting late." Lorelai started the engine. As she did, a faint beeping was heard from her purse. She glanced at Rory, who nodded. Slowly she picked up her purse and opened it. The beeping got louder and louder still when she took the box out and opened it…
