Terror
Lorelai Gilmore sat on the sofa, she was watching TV but she kept glancing at the door to her daughter's room. Rory had been acting strange lately; Lorelai thought she was ill; she had been throwing up a lot.
'Rory's been in there for some time,' She thought to herself, sighing, 'Maybe she's throwing up again.'
Worried about her, Lorelai stood up and walked over to her daughter's room. When she stepped inside she walked over to the bathroom door, she couldn't hear any sounds of vomiting. She was worried so she knocked on the door of the bathroom.
"Rory, are you okay?" She asked, there was a brief silence an then Rory replied, "I-I'm fine Mom, sorry, I'll be out in a minute."
Lorelai was concerned about her daughter's hesitant answer but said nothing about it.
"Okay, I'll see you in living room."
She turned and left the room heading back to the living room.
'Well, that was weird.' She thought, confused.
A few minutes later Rory came into the living room, Lorelai noticed she looked rather pale.
"Hey, are you okay?" She asked, Rory nodded, "I'm fine, really."
Lorelai narrowed her eyes; it sounded more like Rory was trying to convince herself that she was fine. Rory fidgeted for a moment and then spoke up.
"Anyway I...I was gonna go and see Lane," She said, "I'll call you later okay."
Lorelai nodded, still concerned, wondering why her daughter was acting this way. Rory then left the house quickly before Lorelai could ask any questions.
Rory walked to the town square, her mind was racing and she was panicked.
'This is crazy, what if Mom...?' She thought desperately, 'I've gotta talk to Lane first and then I can decide.'
She spotted her best friend standing waiting for her at the square; she hurried over to Lane in desperation. Lane looked up and smiled when she saw Rory but her smile dropped when she saw Rory's desperation.
"Rory, what's going on?" She asked, Rory looked around fearfully, "Lane, listen can we talk somewhere where we can't be overheard."
Lane was confused but agreed and followed Rory away from the square to a quieter part of the town. They stopped, Rory began fidgeting again as Lane watched her, confused.
Finally Lane couldn't take it anymore, "Rory, what's wrong? You're starting to scare me."
Rory took a shaky breath and then finally broke.
"Lane, I have something important to tell, but you have to promise me, you won't tell Mom, or anyone else, please."
"O-Okay?" Lane replied, shocked by this.
Rory took a deep breath and finally revealed the truth.
"Lane, I...I'm pregnant."
Stunned silence followed.
Finally Lane found her voice.
"Wh-what, you're...you're pregnant?" She remarked in shock, Rory nodded miserably.
"So, so, you and Dean...?" Lane asked, to her surprise Rory shook her head. "Dean and I did have sex, yes but...I was at that party for school, you know, trying to fit in more."
Lane nodded and Rory took that as an indication for her to continue.
"While I was there, I felt dizzy, I found out someone, and I think I know who, spiked my drink."
Lane gasped, "Oh my God, Rory, you...you were drugged and...and raped?" Rory sighed and nodded sadly, "Yeah, I felt weird for sometime later and, this morning I took a pregnancy test...It was positive."
Lane couldn't believe what she was hearing; she couldn't believe this had happened to her best friend.
Lane watched as Rory stood, trembling, her shoulders shook and she began to hyperventilate. Lane immediately pulled her into a hug as Rory burst into tears.
"What am I gonna tell Dean?" Rory choked out, "What about my Mom, she's gonna freak, I've turned out just like her." Lane remained silent; she had no idea what to say, or how to help her friend.
Lorelai meanwhile was still concerned about her Daughter; she was wondering why she was acting so secretive. She hated snooping around in her Daughter's room but she was desperate for answers. She got up from the sofa and hurried into Rory's room.
'Rory was spending way too much time in the bathroom,' She thought to herself, 'I better check it out.'
She entered Rory's bathroom and began looking around.
'Nothing looks out of place, I can't see anything...' She thought but then she froze, 'She is hiding something.'
Lorelai had noticed that a bundle of towels on one of the bathroom shelves were disarranged. They were usually kept neat and tidy; they had clearly been disturbed to hide something. She searched through them and then recoiled. She stared at the object she had found.
'A...pregnancy test.'
Making matters worse Lorelai saw the pink plus that indicated it was positive.
"Oh my God," She gasped out loud in shock, "Rory is...pregnant."
She staggered back, closing the bathroom door behind her and staggering back to the sofa.
Rory and Lane approached her home, Rory was hyperventilating again. Rory was trying desperately to figure out how to tell her Mother about her pregnancy. Lane had agreed to come with her to offer emotional support. They headed inside and found Lorelai sitting on the sofa.
"Mom," Rory called out to her hesitantly, Lorelai looked up but didn't say anything.
Rory sighed and then spoke again, "I...I've got something important to tell you."
Lorelai suddenly narrowed her eyes and held something out.
"Does it have anything to do with this?" She asked blandly.
Rory froze when she that her Mother was holding the positive pregnancy test.
'Oh no, now what?'
