Lorelai's Pregnant
Richard was angry that Lorelai was pregnant.
"You're reminding me of my father," Emily screamed at her husband. Nearly twenty-three year old Ava winced at the volume of her mother's voice. She was at the house in support of Lorelai, as was Emily.
Lorelai was currently out with Christopher, which is why Emily had decided to confront Richard.
"Why are you accusing me of acting like your father," Richard asked.
"Because he acted the exact same way when he learned I was pregnant," Emily screamed. Ava once again winced.
"Can we start discussing my wedding, Ava asked. I'm getting married here. Lorelai's important to, but my wedding's in two weeks."
"Of course," Richard said. He was walking his adopted daughter down the aisle. Ava had never met her biological father. Lorelai always tried to claim that he had joined the circus.
Ava was marrying a man from New York named Kevin Thomas-Jacobs. Ava and Kevin loved each other so much, even if Kevin's parents disapproved of the "girl whose mother had given birth to her at sixteen." They were going to hate her even more when they learned that her sixteen year old sister was pregnant.
"We'll discuss this later," Richard told his wife.
"I'm not letting you out of this conversation," Emily told her husband.
Emily and Richard had tried for a son when Lorelai had been three and Ava had been nine, but they hadn't been able to conceive. Emily was now thirty-nine and hiding a secret: She too was pregnant. That's why she was so emotional about Lorelai's pregnancy and the fact that she was a teenage mother. Emily was four months pregnant, but still hiding it. She and Richard were planning on announcing her pregnancy in two days. Lorelai was three months along. Emily hoped their kids could be best friends.
Richard and Emily went over the final details on the wedding, and by they were finished, Lorelai was home.
"How are you feeling," Emily asked her daughter.
"Nauseated, was Lorelai's answer. "How are you feeling?"
"Fine," Emily said.
"Mom, I know that you're pregnant. I can recognize the signs."
"Don't tell your sister yet. We're planning on waiting for another few days."
"I'll keep it a secret," Lorelai promised.
"Do you know what you're having?"
Emily shook her head. "We're waiting until the delivery room. But we already have two names picked out."
"Congratulations, Mom. I'm happy for you and Dad."
"We've been waiting for another baby for thirteen years," Emily confessed.
"Then double congratulations. I can't wait for my new brother or sister."
Both the pregnant women went to bed.
The next few months were going to be life changing for the Gilmores in ways nobody expected. Both Emily and Lorelai were pregnant, and it seemed like babies were going to overrun the mansion.

I came up with the Emily's pregnant twist as I was writing it. I did the math and she'd be thirty-nine so it'd be fine for her to get pregnant. There's going to be another surprise coming up.
