A/N this has been revised. This will cover Luke finding out he has a kid and Lorelai helps cope with what he is feeling. Also Rory and Logan's relationship struggles.

Luke is pacing in his upstairs apartment. A daughter. He has a daughter. He was feeling so many emotions it was hard to keep track of them.
Shock. Surprise. Doubt. Betrayal. Anger. Confusion. How could Anna keep this from him?! He didn't like kids sure, but he would probably like HIS kid. He sat on the edge of his bed with his head in his hands. Luke sits there for a moment in his thoughts. What was he going to do? He knew there was one thing he needed to do, and he needed to do it now.

He goes for the phone.

"Dragon Fly Inn Lorelai speaking."

"Lorelai! We need to talk can you get away?"

Lorelai knew him so well she can hear the hint of panic in his voice.

"Luke what's wrong?" Lorelai asks concerned.

"Nothing I just need to talk to you. It's important."

"I'm on my way. Are you at home or the diner?"

"The diner."

Ten minutes later Lorelai is heading upstairs into the apartment above the diner. She sees Luke sitting on the bed. He looks a mess. She sits next to him.

"All your limbs are attached to that's a good sign, what is going on Luke?"

Luke sighs heavily. How does he tell the woman he's going to marry that he has a child. How would she react? Hopefully better than he is right now. He takes a deep breath.

"I have a daughter." Luke says flatly.

"You what?" Lorelai is sure she heard him wrong.

"A daughter. She's twelve years old."

"Twelve?! What? When did you find out about this?" Lorelai is floored.

"Yesterday."

"I don't understand."

"A few weeks ago a young girl. My daughter. She came into the diner. She rambled on about trying to win a science fair. She took a lock of my hair. Said she was trying to figure out who her father was. I thought there was no way it could be me. Thought she had me confused with someone else. I just forgot about it. I'm sorry I didn't tell you about it. It was during the lunch rush. We were busy. I just went on with my day. With my life. Until a letter came in the mail yesterday from her, saying she won the science fair and that I was her father. Her name is April. April Nardini. Her mom Anna and I-" Luke's voice trails off.
Lorelai finishes his sentence.

"Dated twelve years ago?"

"Yes."

"You never knew she was pregnant?" Lorelai couldn't figure out why anyone wouldn't tell someone they were a father.

"Of course not! I would have been there for my kid had I known." Luke practically shouts. Immediately he apologizes.

"I'm sorry I yelled I'm just a little stressed about this."

"No, it's alright Luke, what are you going to do now?"

"I don't know. I was thinking about going to see Anna. I need to talk to her."

"I can't believe she didn't tell you, I mean I don't know her but-"

"I can't believe she didn't tell me either."

"Were you two serious?"

"Yes and no. We weren't living together or anything but we had been together a few years."

"You're going to go see her?" Lorelai couldn't help it. She was a little bit jealous he was going to see his ex- girlfriend.

"I think I need to, maybe she has a good reason for not telling me?" Luke couldn't imagine what that reason would be. But maybe.

"Do you know where she lives?"

"The letter April sent me, the return address was in Wood bridge."

"Wow. Not too far from here. Crazy to think you've had a kid out there, all along."

"You're telling me... She looks like me." Luke sighed heavily.

"Oh Luke." She hugs her fiancee`.

"Will you come with me?"

"You want me to come with you to confront your ex girlfriend?" Lorelai asks quizzically. She was surprised he would want her to go with him for something like this.

"Please? Just having you there for support will make all the difference."

"I'll be there. When do you want to go?"

"As soon as we have some free time. Maybe this weekend?"

"I'll make it work at the Inn."

Rory is in her room. Working on a piece for the Yale Daily News. There is a knock at her door.

"Rory? Logan is here to see you again." Her roommate Paris informs her.

Rory rolled her eyes. He had the nerve to break up with her through his sister. Now he decides he doesn't want to break up? When was this boy going to get the hint. She was pissed at him. She meets him out in the hallway.

"What do you want Logan?" Rory says with all the acid she can.
She loved him but was so annoyed with how he chose to act. She started to wonder if he was the guy for her. After all she told her from the very beginning he wasn't boyfriend material. It usually didn't work when you tried to change a man. Although until that fight at the bar, things were going really well. She thinks momentarily about her ex Jess showing up.

"Rory. I'm sorry. I didn't mean for things to go that way." Logan pleads with her.

"So you didn't want to break up?" Rory questioning him.

"I thought I did. I thought I wanted to be done with the relationship."

"Well lucky for you, you are." Rory crosses her arms.

"I tried to move on. All I could think about was you."

"I'm sure." Rory says sarcastically.

"Rory. I love you." Logan says.

He means it. It's the first time he's ever said that to a girl and actually meant it.

"I have work to do." Rory heads back into her apartment and locks the door.

Logan is left outside of the apartment staring at the door. He had really messed up. He loved her. He would get her back.
Rory is in her room trying to gain the focus she had before an unpleasant visit from her now ex-boyfriend. She didn't understand. He loved her. Was he serious? He probably doesn't even know what love is. Although she couldn't exactly blame him for that. His childhood. His parents. Were probably at least part of the reason he could be so detached.

Several weeks go by and Logan was trying his hardest to get in good with Rory. He decides to go to Lorelai for help.

"I have sent her flowers, chocolate, fruit, donuts. I even hired a coffee cart to follow her around all day and nothing is working."

"Do you even know Rory?"

"What do you mean?"

"Gestures like that? Are not going to get her attention. You are throwing your money at the problem instead of trying to fix it."

"I'm trying to show her how I feel."

"Well buying her gifts isn't going to win her over. I suggest you try something else."

"I'll try."

"It took a lot of guts coming to see for my help. You know I am not your biggest fan."

"I'm desperate."

"I'm going to write her a letter. Give it to her?"

"Okay."

Luke sat on the bed he shared with Lorelai. He recalled the conversation he had with Anna. Man had it been along time since he had seen her. She hadn't changed all that much. Luke would like to think that he had changed a lot. That was mostly thanks to Lorelai. She helped become more open to things. More willing to talk about problems other than shoving them aside and ignoring them. Which is probably what Anna thought he would do with the news about her being pregnant. The talk went nothing like he expected. Sure, maybe he should have called her before just showing up at her house. Maybe Anna should have called him and told him he had a daughter. They both messed up. Anna's was worse. Lorelai was great. She just sat there quietly letting us talk.

"How could you not tell me I had a daughter?" Luke tried to contain his anger. It was hard to do.

"By the time I found out I was pregnant we had broken up."

"You could have called."

"You always complained about kids"

"I still had a right to know. I could have helped out."

"We don't need help. April is very low maintenance."

"Did she ever even ask about me? About her father?"

"Not really."

"Why now? Why tell her now then?"

"I didn't even tell her. She figured it out."

"How exactly did she do that."

"She's a smart kid, Luke. She knew I was living in Stars Hollow at the time. I think she found an old picture of you. You haven't changed much."

"I've changed a lot. It's you who hasn't changed. Always controlling the situations."

"I didn't think you would want to know."

"Well I do! I want to know my daughter!" Luke shouts. He had kept his composure for so long.

"Do not yell at me. Luke. You come to my house. Without a word. Demanding things and raising your voice. You come here with some woman."

"She is my fiancee` and she supports me in every way."

"If you want to see her, you are going to have to do things my way."

"What is your way?"

"She (pointing to Lorelai) will not be around my daughter."

"WHAT?!"

"I don't want some random woman around my kid."

"She is not a random woman. We are engaged. She isn't going anywhere."

"Until you are married. I don't want her near April."

Luke sighed. "Okay."

He didn't like that Anna was making all these rules. How dare she demand these things when she was the one who kept her from him all these years. He didn't like agreeing to the rules but he felt he had to. At least for now. He just wanted to get to know her. This is all he was thinking about. Sitting in his home that he shared with Lorelai. She gets out of the shower.

"You alright hun?" Lorelai asks her fiancee`

"I'm okay. Still processing things."

"You know what I realized?"

"What's that?"

"Anna. She didn't say sorry. Not once."

"I know. I thought about that too. How can someone do that and feel no remorse?"

"It doesn't make sense to me. I couldn't imagine not telling Christopher he was a father."

"You and Anna are very different people.

"Luke, I can stay here if you need me to If you want to talk more."

"No it's okay. I will be alright. You go. You're hanging with Sookie right?"

"Yes, looking for wedding invitations and other wedding related things."

"I'll be at the diner if you need me."

Later that night Lorelai meets Luke at the diner.

"Our wedding planning is done."

"Done? How?"

Lorelai tells Luke all the details. The perfect dress she found. How she found the perfect venue, and the perfect date. June 3rd 2006.

"Six months from now?"

"Yes. Too soon?" Lorelai feels a little disappointed. She didn't want to wait.

"Oh no. I mean it is soon. But if we have all the details figured out. Then why not soon?"

"I'm so excited. This has been a long time coming."

"It really has."

"I'm so thrilled to be getting married to such a wonderful man."

"I am too. Let's go upstairs. Ill show you just how thrilled I am."

I'm trying to lay the ground work and show character development and significant changes and differences. Hope you enjoy! We will be getting to literati. Enjoy!
