"Rory we can leave anytime, I don't know if it's that smart of you to be doing this in your condition…" April whispered to Rory as they meditated in preparation for their yoga to begin.
"April…I'm fine. I am not letting these guys hold me back. I will do my…yoga," Rory told her as she flinched.
"Are you okay?" April said concerned.
"I'm fine! Jeez! Just because I look like a whale doesn't mean there has to be something wrong with me! And you're not exactly in a different condition than me!" Rory told April. Everyone in the yoga turned at Rory's frustration. April turned away from Rory and focused on the yoga instructor. But she soon turned back to Rory, still concerned. Rory now gave up on they stretch the class was doing and was holding her stomach surrounded by a puddle.
"Rory!" April yelled. April jumped up, but of course was halted by her stomach. The instructor ran to call an ambulance while April tried to calm Rory down.
"This isn't supposed to happen for another 2 weeks! I'm not ready! What about Jess? We're not moved into our house yet! What am I going to do?!" Rory said panicking.
"Rory, stop! This panicking is not going to change this! You're in labor, you can't change it! Stay calm and breathe!" The ambulance finally came and lead Rory and April to the hospital. There April frantically called Lorelai and Jess as Rory went through painful contractions. Jess got there quickly and Lorelai and Luke had gone out and not answered their cell phones. April and Jess stood by Rory's side letting her swear and yell and hit them to get through the pain. In between contractions the doctor informed them that one of the babies was not facing the correct way. They decided Rory would get a cesarean section.
After two more hours Rory was finally ready to go in. She was wheeled off to the room with Jess and April wished them good luck opting not to go in. April still called Lorelai over and over when finally she got her. Lorelai was very upset she wasn't there and hurried over. By the time she got there Rory had been getting the C-section for an hour and the babies were born early, but healthy. Jess came out looking like he was the happiest man alive. He told April there two healthy babies, but the doctors were wrong about the genders. There was a girl and boy. They hadn't decided on a name, and Rory was still a little groggy. He turned around to go back to Rory when he saw Lorelai and Luke. "So, you guys finally showed up?" Jess asked. April gave him a warning look and he walked back into the operating room. Lorelai understood he would be mad, but was still hurt. She couldn't believe she had missed her own grandchildren's birth. She didn't have anyone to blame but herself, and she knew she would never forgive herself. April reassured her everything would turn out to be okay, and Lorelai pretended to be fine. What seemed like days later, they were allowed in to see Rory.
Rory was lying in her bed, looking drowsy, but happy holding one of her babies. "Hey Rory," April said walking over to her bed admiring the little bundle that was wrapped in a pink blanket.
"Wow, Rory, she's beautiful," Lorelai told her daughter.
"Yeah she's perfect," Rory said, not moving her eyes away from the baby. "Too bad you weren't there to see the birth. I hope it wasn't an emergency."
"Rory, I'm so sorry. I should have had my cell phone on. I knew this was going to happen soon and-" She was cut off by Jess.
"We can talk about it later," He told them. April walked over to Jess and the baby in his arms.
"Who's this? Did you decide on names?" April said excitedly.
"This is Zachary Jess with me," Jess told them.
"Aw, that's nice. What about her?" April asked about the baby in Rory's arms.
"This is Rylee June," Rory told them.
"Those are really nice names, where do they come from?" Lorelai asked.
"Jess and I just really liked the name Zachary and Rylee is a nickname, for Lorelai." Lorelai looked up at them.
"That's really great. Now we'll just let you rest, Rory. You've had a big day." Lorelai gave Rory a kiss on the forehead then each of her grandkids. They all left the room, but as Lorelai left Rory called her back.
"Mom, we can just put it behind us, its okay," Lorelai nodded. She left as Jess walked over and put Zachary in the crib for the nurse to take. He did the same for Rylee and the nurse took them back to the nursery. Jess sat down next to Rory on the bed.
"Still up for this?" Rory asked Jess.
"Of course." Jess kissed Rory and moved to a chair near the bed to watch her sleep. He wasn't as confident as he sounded, he was scared to death being responsible for the little babies, but for the moment he stayed elated.
