"Will you just stand still?" Lorelai whispered to Luke as she was still completely consumed with the chemistry between them. They kissed another tender kiss, and then drew away from each other. Obviously they were both totally caught up in the moment and went back to kissing on the front porch of the Dragonfly.

After kissing for a few minutes and getting pretty carried away, some sense seeped into their heads. They were standing outside Lorelai's new business, where half the town was staying for the night. They were just lucky that everyone was in their rooms for the night.

Lorelai took the initiative and, while looking deeply into Luke's eyes, she held his hand and led them upstairs. She allowed Luke to unlock his door, though very impatiently, and the minute the door was closed they started at it again. They made their way to the bed while undressing and kissing at all possible moments. It wasn't until they were laying on the bed that Lorelai suddenly realized that since she had broken up with Jason she had stopped taking her birth control pills.

"Luke, do you have any protection?"

"Oh crap, no. I'll go get some." He started getting up and looking for his clothes, but then realized something. "Umm, actually I don't have any at my place. I would run to the store, but Doose's is closed. I suppose we could go to Woodbury-"

"Luke," Lorelai interrupted. "I have some at home. I'll just run over and grab some. Wait right here and then you will be thoroughly rewarded for your obedience!"

Lorelai got dressed as quickly as she ever had in her life. As she pulled quickly in to the driveway and saw Rory's car she remembered that Rory had come home for CDs and never come back. Maybe she had gotten distracted.

"Rory! What are you doing? You've been gone for forever!" Lorelai yells as she enters the house. Dean and Rory quickly got dressed and hurried into the kitchen. They weren't quick enough. Lorelai saw the bed. "Dean, get out." Lorelai says in her no-nonsense voice. Dean quickly walks out the kitchen door. "Rory! What were you thinking?! He's married!!"

"He's getting divorced. He told me they both knew their marriage was over!" Rory defends her choice.

"But he's still MARRIED!!" Lorrelai countered.

Rory ran out of the house, grabbing her sweater and her phone on the way. She just kept running. Lorelai tried to chase after her, but it was no use. Lorelai went inside and sat on the couch, bewildered, but crying for the hurt and confusion her daughter must be feeling right now.

After a while Luke got to wondering where Lorelai was, considering what she was getting. Finally Luke got worried and got dressed and headed to Lorelai's house. When he saw her Jeep there he became a little less worried and a little more puzzled. When he got inside, his worry increased tenfold. She was sitting on the couch, holding Rory's baby box, sobbing her eyes out.

"Lorelai, honey, what's wrong?" Luke asks as he rushes over to the couch to wrap Lorelai in a comforting hug.

"Rory's not a little girl anymore Luke. She's all grown up." Lorelai sobs out. Luke is puzzled, but Lorelai can't or won't say anything more. Luke just holds her. After a while, Lorelai sets the box down on the coffee table and faces Luke. "I just want to be held Luke."

Soon their cuddling turns into Lorelai finding Luke's mouth with hers. Their kissing turns into a little more and Lorelai drags Luke up to her bedroom, where they make tender love, causing Lorelai forget about anything or anyone that is not her current lover.

Afterwards, they fell asleep in each other's arms. They woke up once in the middle of the night and made love again. Lorelai set an alarm so that they could wake up in time to get to the Dragonfly before anyone else awoke.

The next morning they woke up on time, but took a little longer in the shower than planned and didn't have time to talk about what had happened the night before.

After the trial run at the inn, Luke went to the diner and Lorelai stayed to work some more. When she got home from work there was a message- ok, 4 messages- from Luke about his sister's accident and how he has to go up to Maine to help them out. Lorelai calls Luke on his newly acquired cell phone and they talk for a while.

5 weeks later

Lorelai spent most of the last 5 weeks working since Rory was in Europe (not to mention the fact that mother and daughter weren't speaking to each other) and Luke was with Liz and TJ. One morning she woke up a little on the queasy side of things, but her tummy settled after she sat in bed for a few minutes. She went downstairs to make some coffee, but she had to dash for the bathroom (not an easy feat when it is upstairs and she is downstairs!) before she even turned the machine on. "Damn it, I hate being sick, and Luke should be home soon. I want to be healthy for our first date. I also want to be able to give him a proper welcome home. Dirty!" thought Lorelai as she brushed her teeth and headed out to work minus her best-friend-turned-enemy, coffee. The rest of the day Lorelai felt a little queasy, but managed to avoid having a date with the toilet. As the week went on Lorelai experienced more queasiness and puking, along with becoming tired in the middle of the day. These things got her thinking about when her last visit from "Aunt Flo" had been. Oh, shit, I haven't had a period since before the trial run! Her next thought, after a few seconds was, But I have had one since Jason and I broke up, thank God!

With Luke's return date still unknown, right after work that day Lorelai headed into Woodbury to buy a few pregnancy tests. She picked up and paid for a 2 pack and went home to take them. With Rory still in Europe Lorelai didn't need to worry about hiding the tests.

Despite wishing to the contrary, Lorelai pretty much knew what the answer was going to be. The pregnancy tests she used that day were so much more advanced than the ones she used the only other time she had taken a home pregnancy test. Instead of a pink line, the stick would show either a "pregnant" or "not pregnant." While the tests may have a different way of saying it, the answer was the same today as it was 20 years ago- she was going to be having a baby.

I am just getting the inn up and running. Hell, we opened the night this baby was conceived. I really want and need to be focusing my energy on the inn right now, especially since Sookie just had Davey a few months ago. Thank God Michel is with us full-time now. But this is my dream, and once again, and unplanned pregnancy is getting in the way. Although, Rory actually got me out of my parent's house, and she is what made me realize I wanted to own an inn, so I guess my last pregnancy wasn't that bad of a move on my part! I love Rory, and I will love this baby too. Hopefully Luke will be around more than Christopher ever was.

What am I going to tell Luke? Or rather, when and how am I going to tell Luke? There is no question about having to tell him. I see him every day and he's a smart guy. There is no way this baby is anyone else's, and Luke is smart enough to know that. Plus, I would never deny Luke his child. Wait, will he even want a kid. He doesn't seem to like them that much. I've heard his rants about how yucky and annoying he thinks they are. Crap, now I'm scared to tell him. But I know I have to. I suppose he does like Rory, so that's- Oh shit! I have to tell Rory that at the age of 19 she is going to be getting a little brother or sister.

After her mind slowed down a bit she realized that there was no way she could tell Luke over the phone. She's only 5 weeks pregnant so waiting another week or two wasn't going to make much difference. That time would even give her the chance to get to the doctor to have her confirm. Just to be sure she needs to rock the boat of her very new relationship.

2 weeks later

Lorelai had gone to the doctor who had told her that indeed she was pregnant. Luke was scheduled to arrive that night. Lorelai and Rory made up and Rory was now home. Lorelai and Rory saw Luke the next morning at the diner for breakfast. Lorelai flirted with herself for Luke ("see, he called me hot plates, he soooo likes me") and then went when she was summoned over to the cash register.

"those jeans are really workin' for ya. They're workin for me too."

"You're flirting with me! Do it some more."

"Those shoes go well with you shirt. Sorry, that's all I can do right now, I'm working. But tonight I will give you more positive views on other aspects of your being."

They made their date and Lorelai returned to the table. Her mood was only slightly dampened by the fact that on her first official date with Luke she has to tell him she is pregnant. She and Rory discuss the date as they eat their food. Lorelai wanted to tell Rory her news, but she knew she must tell Luke first. It has not been easy since Rory beat Luke home by 3 whole days. This meant that Lorelai had to pretend to drink coffee when she could not avoid it all-together. Luckily, the smell of coffee didn't set her stomach off too often. She just knew that she wasn't supposed to drink coffee and that Luke would have shot her if he knew that Lorelai was giving his kid coffee, especially while the baby is still in the womb.
