This might be shorter than what I've been doing lately but that's because I'm drawing a big blanc on this story and instead of giving all of you a crappy ending where you feel like killing me I'm gonna take a break from the story.

Kylie thanks for the help provided here! Weee)

"That's been one of the best town meeting's" Lorelai admitted as she and Rory walked out of Miss Patty's.

"You're just saying that because Taylor said that next weekend was the dance marathon" Rory pointed out.

"Not just because of that" they were walking towards Luke's where Jess was waiting for Rory.

"And because Kirk is grounded and can't participate"

"Yes! That's why" Lorelai smiled.

"You're mean. Poor Kirk waits for this every year and now he's grounded"

"It's not my fault his Mother found him and Lulu holding hands after six pm"

"No, but you shouldn't gloat especially since you can't even participate"

"I can"

"Luke is never going to let you dance with someone else, plus you're seven months pregnant"

"Luke is gonna dance with me, he told me so at Liz' wedding" Lorelai said in a 'ha' tone of voice. "And I never said I was gonna dance the whole 24 hours, I was thinking more along the lines of 24 minutes"

"So you're just gonna wake up at before five am for the fun of waking up before five am?"

"Exactly. Plus your… umm… sibling here…" Lorelai placed a hand on her stomach. "…used to wake me up before five all the time, I'm used to it" they walked into the diner.

"So my 'sibling' doesn't know about sleeping in late huh?"

"No… it takes after its Daddy" Lorelai smiled. It was hard not mentioning the sex of the baby, it was easier talking with Luke about it because he already knew what it was.

"What did it do now, that apparently I also do?" Luke walked over to their table; the diner was mostly dead because of the town meeting, only one out of town couple.

"Wake Mom up before five am" Rory explained.

"I haven't done that and the baby hasn't done that in months" Luke said.

"No, but it did before. And it takes after you because there's no way in hell I had woken up before five am without it being the dance marathon"

"Ah, the dance marathon"

"It's that time of year again" Lorelai said with a smile. "Next weekend, to be exact" Jess took a seat in the chair next to Rory's to see what came next.

"Next weekend?" Luke asked wincing.

"Yep, and don't even try to get out of it because you already said you'd go" Lorelai told him sternly.

"When did I do that?" Luke sat next to her.

"Liz' wedding" Lorelai stated.

"That was a long time ago"

"So you're going back on your word?" Lorelai's voice broke, oh the wonder of hormones.

"I didn't say that" Luke quickly said before Lorelai began to cry.

"Then you're going" Lorelai clearly cheered up.

"I didn't say that either" Luke said and Jess just smirked.

"What are you laughing at? You and Rory are going to win that trophy for me" Lorelai told Jess and his smirk quickly left his face.

"What!" Jess' eyes grew and he turned to look at Rory who only nodded, Luke began smirking now.

"I never agreed to that" Jess told Rory.

"Sorry but with Kirk grounded we have a really good chance atactually winning" Rory smiled at Jess' stunnedface.

"So get to bed early so you have enough energy" Lorelai told Jess. "And we're going also" she turned to Luke.

"But…" Luke began.

"No 'buts' you already promised" Lorelai said and gave him a glare.

"Fine" Luke sighed, it was better agreeing to Lorelai thanhaving to face Lorelai's mood swings.

"Yay! Like I said before, best town meeting" Lorelai smiled.

A WhIlE LaTeR

Rory and Jess had only gone to town because Lorelai had wanted to go to the town meeting with Rory. And if it was hard telling Lorelai 'no' before the pregnancy, now the task was absolutely impossible because of the pregnancy. So after having a small 'family' dinner at the diner after closing, Rory and Jess were going to leave back to Hartford.

"So you'll get here on Friday?" Lorelai asked Rory, they were hugging goodbye.

"Yeah, we might as well sleep at the Hollow no need to drive here in the middle of the night" Rory said pulling back from the hug.

"Good, that'll give us time for a movie night"

"Sorry but we need to be well rested if we're gonna win" Rory told her Mom with a fake smile.

"And after you win?"

"Sorry, we'll be beat from all the dancing"

"Aw man!" Lorelai pouted and walked over to the counter to grab some pie, to cheer herself up again.

"She's sad" Rory walked up to Luke and Jess. Who were talking outside near Rory's car.

"Thanks for that" Luke told Rory sarcastically.

"Sorry but someone has to keep her grounded and apparently that someone is me now" Rory told look giving him a weird look.

"If I keep her grounded then she'll keep me on the couch. She's got weird mood swings"

"Fine then, I volunteer to keep her grounded until the baby is born" Rory told Luke in a serious tone.

"Gee thanks, what would I do without you?" Luke said sarcastically.

"Can we go now?" Jess asked annoyed ever since he found out he was going to have to dance for 24 hours.

"Sure" Rory gave him an angelic smile to try and change his mood, it didn't and he got in to drivers side of the car.

"Ignore him" Luke waved it off.

"Always do" Rory said with a smile and hugged Luke goodbye.

"You and your Mom both" Luke also hugged her also.

"And I bet that no matter what the baby is, it'll also ignore you" Rory said holding back her giggles.

"Gee thanks"

"Any time" Rory smiled, she looked around making sure no one could here her. "Bye, daddy" she gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.

"Bye, angel" Luke whispered back. They both kept calling each other that but only if no one was around. No one knew, not Lorelai or Jess or anybody else. Rory banged on one of the diner's big windows and waved at her Mom, then she got on the car and after a quick 'drive safe' from Luke they left.

"Can we go home now?" Lorelai asked once Luke walked into the diner.

"Just let me close up" he gave her a quick kiss then he left to finish up.

"I'll be back in a few" Luke told Caesar before leaving the diner to go to the Mall. Yes the Mall.

Luke decided that he must as well go now, with Lorelai still at the Inn, better than waiting until she got on maternity leave because then she'd bug him about it. He didn't know why he felt compelled to do it, he just did. Also he didn't know why he had to do it now, it's not like it matter all that much.

Luke got into the Mall and didn't know where to go; he knew where he wanted to go but had no idea where the store was. For Luke's luck, since it was Wednesday, the Mall was pretty much deserted. After about twenty minutes of wondering he finally found the store. He wondered inside and began looking inside the glass displays.

"Can I help you with something?" a woman asked, she worked there.

"Yeah, I…umm… I'm looking for something for my daughter" Luke looked up from the displays and to the woman.

"Ok, how old is she?"

"Umm…"

"So you are gonna dress up…" Sookie started.

"…but I'm not gonna wear high heels" Lorelai finished pouting.

"Couldn't break Luke down, could ya" Sookie teased. "At least you got him to agree, Jackson said 'no, it'll jiggle the baby'…" Sookie tried to imitate Jackson's voice. "You'd think that after Davy he'd ease off a bit, but no he just got worse" Sookie said sadly.

"Aw, don't worry honey, Luke and I won't last long"

"I know! And that's sad also!"

"Why?"

"You finally got him to agree and Kirk is grounded so he can't participate but you have no chance in winning because you're pregnant"

"Thanks for the good thought there, Sook" Lorelai teased. "Anyhow, I will get that trophy"

"How?"

"Rory and Jess are gonna win it for me" Lorelai said with a big smile.

"And Rory is gonna leave it here? I don't think so, that trophy will be decorating Yale's dorm room"

"No it won't, they're too afraid of my mood swings to deny me anything" Lorelai smirked.

"Ooh I will use that against Jackson"

"My mood swings?"

"No, silly, my mood swings"

"Good, because I don't think he'll be toointimidated by my mood swings"

"Well… you do get very intimidating" Sookie said wincing.

"Hey!"

"I'm sorry honey but you do, and it's scary sometimes" Sookie told her and Lorelai's eyes began watering. "Don't cry" Sookie's voice broke.

"I'm scary" Lorelai whined while big tears silently rolled down her cheeks. "I'm scary and fat"

"You're not fat" Sookie was also crying by now.

"Yes I am, and I'm only gonna get fatter" Lorelai sobbed.

"So am I!" Sookie realized and began sobbing also. Lorelai began giggling. "What?" Sookie asked, sobs subsiding.

"The baby has hiccups" Lorelai had a big goofy grin plastered all over her face.

"Really?"

"MmmHmm"

Sucky ending and chapter, I know! i just thought I'd tell everybody I was taking a break from it instead of just stopping cold turkey.

No need to throw tomatoes n stuff at me.

I already explained why, this story will be picked up once I get more ideas (from my head or someone out there)

For now this story is on pause, it's getting in the way of my other stories so I see no point on delaying updates on other stories because I'm cracking my brain with this one.

I PROMIS I'll finish this story and chapter, sometime.

I'll pick up this chapter 'the dance marathon'
