Logan swore and then pulled back enough to look at Rory after the look he exchanged with Colin. "Ace I hate to ask you this but I have to ask. Is there any chance that you could be pregnant?"
Rory's eyes widened and she shook her head before abruptly stopping as she looked at Logan in surprise and shock. "Oh my God! I didn't think about that. Oh my God, oh my God, Oh my God."
Logan and Colin couldn't help it they chuckled and Colin said "I think we'll take that as a yes. We need to get you a test."
Rory gasped and then said "I can't go and buy one and neither can you two. What am I going to do?"
Colin thought for a moment and then remembered something that Lorelai had said to him the other night when they were talking about Rory. "I know just the person."
Rory looked at Colin and said "Who?"
Colin took in a deep breath and let it out and said "Your Mom."
Rory's mouth dropped open and she shook her head. "No. I don't want my Mom knowing until I know for sure."
Colin shook his head. "Rory, honey your Mom already suspects it I think. Just let me call her."
Rory sighed but nodded. "Fine. But can we get something to eat first and then go outside and you can call her?"
Colin smiled and nodded and said "Yeah you need to eat something. You haven't been lately and you're losing way too much weight."
Rory sighed and looked at Logan with a raise eyebrow. "Do you also think I'm losing too much weight?"
Logan looked Rory over and then looked her back in the eyes. "Yeah Ace you're losing too much weight. Lets go get you some food and then we can call Mama bear and see if we're all pregnant."
Rory opened her mouth to say something but she heard a gasp and she turned her head and saw Lousie standing there with her mouth hanging open and she blushed while Logan and Colin all laughed.
Louise stared at Rory and then at Colin and Logan and said "You two take Rory outside and I will go get her something to eat. Colin you call her Mom. Logan you make sure she doesn't stress herself."
Rory's mouth dropped open in shock as Louise took charge and she said "I take it you heard all that then?"
Louise gave Rory a tender smile and said "Honey I've had the feeling that you were pregnant but I was debating on asking you or not. Now you go outside with your protective detail while I go grab you a salad and an orange juice. You listen to them or when I get outside I'll make a scene."
Rory sighed and said "Yes Mama bear number two."
At that Colin and Logan laughed and Louise said "Well honey someone needs to make sure you listen. Now go. I'll be out soon."
Logan smirked and leaned forward and crashed his lips down onto Louise's and then smirked again when he pulled back and saw the surprise on her face. "Okay baby we'll make sure she behaves. Just hurry up and if Daniel says anything to you remind him that I'll kick his ass."
Louise's mouth kept opening and shutting and Rory laughed and said "It's about damn time!"
At her choice of words Louise, Logan and Colin all looked at her in shock and Colin laughed and said "Damn Gilmore you're getting good at swearing."
Rory blushed making Logan, Louise and Colin all laugh and Louise said "Okay you two get her outside for some fresh air. She looks like she's about to collapse. I'll get her some food and grab Madeline and Paris. We'll be out soon with her food."
Logan nodded and with a possessive look in his eyes said "Remember what I told you about Daniel."
Louise actually blushed slightly at the look in Logan's eyes but nodded and then waited and watched as Colin and Logan got on either side of Rory and led her outside. She couldn't help but smile at the thought of how protective and close they have all grown over Rory in the last month. When they were out of sight she turned towards the cafeteria and quickly made her way there. As soon as she walked in she spotted Paris and Madeline in line so she skipped from the back of the line up to the front and told them quickly what was going on and then they each got their own food plus food for Rory, Logan and Tristan and then made their way outside to the other three of their group.
~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~
Logan and Colin led Rory over to a spot underneath a tree and away from everyone else. Once they helped her sit down on the ground they looked at each other and then at Rory. They couldn't keep the smile off of heir faces as they thought about the fact that Rory could be pregnant.
Colin looked down at Rory and said "Darlin I'm going to call your Mom now. I promise you that she isn't going to be surprised or mad at you."
Rory sighed and looked up at Colin with unshed tears. "Are you sure?"
Colin smiled and bent down and wiped the unshed tears away. "I'm sure Princess."
Rory sighed but smiled slightly and then leaned back up against the tree. She had known that her Mom was watching her even more closely than she had been but she never suspected that her Mom had thought she could be pregnant. Unconsciously her hand went to her flat stomach and her eyes closed on a wave of pain as she thought about what it would be like if she was pregnant and that Tristan wouldn't be by her side to help her. A sob rose in her throat and she tried to stifle it as she thought about not having the man she loved so much be there when their child was born.

Logan and Colin exchanged looks again and Logan sat down beside Rory and pulled her into his arms as Colin took his cell phone out and dialed Lorelai's number with his chest aching as he looked at the girl who had become like family to him.
He couldn't stop the smile from spreading across his face as Lorelai answered her cell.
~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~
Lorelai was sitting at the desk in her office when her cell phone rang. She knew who it was before she even looked at her caller ID because of the ringtone it had been playing. She also knew that something must be wrong with Rory and she sighed but then smiled as she accepted the call. "Well if it isn't my son from another woman."
She heard Colin laugh and she let out a breath she hadn't realized that she had been holding.
"Hey Mama bear. I need for you to do something." Colin said.
Lorelai frowned and said "What is it you need hon?"
Colin sighed and said "You need to run to a pharmacy and pick up a pregnancy test for our girl. She just admitted that the smell of coffee makes her sick. She didn't want me to call and ask you because she was afraid that you would get angry at her."
Lorelai gasped and closed her eyes. "I'll leave now and stop in Hartford and pick one up. Make sure to tell our girl that I'm not mad and that I had been suspecting for a while now that she was pregnant. Make sure she eats something Colin."
Colin smiled and said "Oh she will Mama bear. Louise overheard Logan and I talking to Rory about it and took over. She was a drill sargent."
Lorelai laughed and said "That's my other girl. I'll be there within an hour Colin. Make sure between now and then my daughter stays calm."
Colin looked over at Rory and saw how she was clinging to Logan and sighed. "I'm afraid that's gonna be impossible Mama bear. She's losing it already. We really need Tristan here. He's going to be the only one who can snap her out of this. She actually lost her temper with me today and while it helped some she is still hurting too much."
Lorelai sighed as she stood up and grabbed her keys. "I'm working on it. I have another stop to make and then we'll be at the school."
Colin frowned and said "Who is we Mama bear?"
Lorelai smiled and said "That will be a surprise but it isn't Tristan. But it is someone who maybe can help. Give me forty-five minutes and we'll be there."
Colin smiled slightly because he had a feeling who she was picking up. "Okay Mama. We'll keep our girl outside. Since Headmaster Charleston knows what is going on I know he won't say anything to any of us."
Lorelai chuckled as she thought of the Headmaster and said "Okay honey just keep her calm. I'll be there soon with back-up."
She didn't wait for Colin's answer and she closed her cell phone. Without thinking twice she opened it back up and dialed a number she had memorized.
~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~
Colin put his phone back in his pocket just as Louise, Paris and Madeline came over to them with food and after smiling at the girls he looked at Rory and said "Sweetheart your Mom is going to go and get a test and then she'll be here. I told her that we would all stay outside. I don't think Headmaster Charleston is going to get mad at us for skipping a period especially since he's constantly checking on you."
Rory sighed and looked up at Colin and nodded and whispered "Okay."
It was at that second that Logan, Colin, Paris, Louise, and Madeline all realized just how much pain Rory was in. They have tried to get her to sit out of classes before but she never would. They all exchanged looks and then sat down forming a circle around where Logan was sitting with Rory in his lap.
Louise smiled slightly as she handed Rory a salad and a bottle of orange juice. "I know that you're probably not hungry but you need to eat. If I have to I'll have Logan feed you just to make sure that you eat."
Rory glared at Louise but sighed and started to slowly eat her salad without saying a word. She knew that they were all worried about her and that she should say something but she didn't know what she should say. Right now she just wanted to curl in a ball and fade away until the pain left her but she knew that she couldn't. She sighed again and then looked up and gave a slight but tired smile to her friends to let them know that she wasn't giving up even though that is what she wanted to do right now more than anything.

As soon as Lorelai heard the person answer the phone she said "We have a problem. Well it's not a problem really but we need to do something."
The man on the other end of the phone could pick up on the worry in Lorelai's voice and he said quickly "What is it? Is Rory alright?"
Lorelai sighed as she shut her car door and started her car. "Depends on your definition of alright. I just got a call from Colin. It seems that him and Logan suspect what I have been suspecting and Rory now thinks so to. I'm on the way to the pharmacy and I'm going to pick up a test. Colin said she was losing it."
The man on the other end swore and said "I'll be ready. After you get the test come and get me. It's time this stops."
Lorelai smiled slightly and said "I was already thinking of coming to get you. Can you be ready to go in thirty minutes. I want to get to the school as soon as possible."
"I'll be ready. Just do what you got to do so we can go and see Rory." The man said before hanging up.
Lorelai sighed but put her phone on the passenger seat and started driving as quickly as she could without wrecking.
~/~/~/~/~/~/~/~
A man sat down and sighed. He rubbed a hand over his face and wondered just what in the hell he was going to do. He knew that Lorelai needed him to help her and he was going to help her in any way that he could but he wasn't really sure what it was that he could do.
He smiled slightly as he thought about Rory but then he frowned. He wished that he had done so many things differently but he hadn't. However he was finally getting the chance to right wrongs that shouldn't have been done but he could only hope and pray that it wasn't too late.
