Wedding Bells Ring

Author's note- Hey, I realize that Lorelai didn't have Paul Anka yet, and that Sookie isn't pregnant yet, but I'm taking my leeway. So beside form those two changes we are still I season five and nothing else has changed.

Lorelai woke up when she heard the sound of her cell phone ringing on her bedside table.

At the same time, Luke woke up and gave a loud grunt. "Who could be calling at-" Lorelai glanced at the clock, "3 in the morning?"

Luke- Just answer the phone.

Lorelai- We're married why don't you?

Luke- It's your cell phone.

Lorelai picked up the phone finally and fully awoke to the blazing blue glow of the screen.

Groggily, Lorelai answered "Hello?"

"Lorelai?" Jackson said in a frantic voice.

Lorelai- Jackson?

Jackson- Sookie's having a Baby!

Lorelai- I'm on my way, as long as that wasn't a reference to the poorly made Kevin Bacon movie.

Jackson- Well, I haven't changed my license plate to S.H.A.B yet.

Lorelai- Good to know.

Luke- What's going on?

Jackson- I'm gonna go now.

Lorelai hangs up and gets out of bed. "Sookie's having the baby," she said as she pulled on a pair of jeans. Luke got out of bed and said, "Which hospital is she at?" Lorelai noticed now that he was out of bed and pulling on a plaid shirt.

Lorelai- What are you doing?

Luke- Coming with you.

Lorelai- You don't have to you can get some sleep.

Luke- Like I'm really gonna let you drive before you've had any coffee in your system.

Lorelai- Good thinking.

Rory walks into the newspaper office at Yale and sees Jess waiting at her desk. "Jess?" she said unsure what he was here for. She had made herself quite clear that she didn't want to be with him last time she saw him.

Jess- "Rory, I know you made yourself perfectly clear. You don't want to be with me. But, I-" he sighs thinking how to phrase this right "just wanted to see you."

"Jess…." She says not really knowing what to say.

"Rory, let's just go get a cup of coffee, talk and see where things go. I know we can't be more than friends I know that's not what you want but let's just… talk."

Rory knew he meant it. She missed him too, but she didn't really want to be with him. She wanted to start over. She wanted to be with Logan. There was still this small part of her that longed for him, for the old, to go back into her comfort zone.

"Okay." Rory said as simply as that. She knew if she went with him there was a good chance she'd end up getting back together with him but she thought she could control it. She thought they could truly just be friends.

"Okay?" Jess replied unsure what she meant.

"There's this place on campus that has great lattes." She replied growing in confidence every second.

"Great." He said still unsure of this new 'why not?' Rory.

On the way to the hospital, it was fairly quiet, for both Lorelai Gilmore and Lucas Danes had the same thing on their minds. Then Luke spoke, a little unsure and a little afraid to break the silence. "I know I've always sent a bad vibe about kids but…" He paused, not quite knowing what to say and looking for Lorelai to help him out. She couldn't because she wanted to know what he thought on the subject she wanted him to find the right words and phrase it out to fit exactly what he was thinking. She waited in silence for him to reply. "I guess I'm trying to say kids wouldn't be all that bad. I mean sure they cry and poop and get really really sticky for no apparent reason, but kids would be nice." he said the last part with confidence.

Lorelai smiled and turned to him. "Kids would be nice."

They spent the rest of the ride there in silence. A comfortable silence. They both were content. Nothing more needed to be said at that given time.
