Tristan stood their looking at the people standing in front of him. He wasn't sure what he should be slam the door, invite them in for a cup of coffee and share stories of the father he never know. The first option won and he closed the door and walked into the kitchen.

"Tristan." He looked back at Rory. "You can't leave your family outside like that."

"They are not my family Rory. They might share DNA with me, but nothing else." They saw Finn holding Aly as they walked downstairs. Finn sat her down on the floor and she walked over and hugged Tristan's leg. "Your family is my family. The guys are my family. That is the only family that I need in my life Rory not them not him." Finn was looking at Rory as Tristan picked Aly up and walked into the kitchen.

"What's going on Love?"

"Tristan's brother and sisters are outside the door." Finn walked over and looked at the screen and he just looked at Rory. Another ring of the doorbell and Tristan walked out from the kitchen. He walked over and opened the door and walked outside.

"I don't know why you're here for but you have three seconds to get out of here."

"We need something."

"I bet you do." He laughed and shook his head. "Tell me your names first before asking for my money."

"I'm James, Terri, and Mickie." James said as Tristan leaned up against the wall. "Our dad is sick." Tristan rolled his eyes and turned his back to them.

"He was never a dad to me not after he left my mother." He opened the door.

"He's dying and you don't even care." Terri had tears in her eyes. Tristan closed the door and turned around.

"I don't care if the asshole was lying right her in front bleeding all over the ground I wouldn't help him. He is nothing to me and so are you guys." He opened the door again and saw Aly was standing their looking at him. "What are you needing bear?"

"I want bacon."

"Did you tell Colin?" She nodded. "Is he fixing it?" She nodded again.

"Aly." She took off running into the kitchen at the sound of Rory's voice. Tristan turned around and Terri was holding out a piece of paper.

"This is hospital that our father is staying at." He noticed the way she stressed our and he just shook his head.

"What so I can pay the bill?"

"He wants to see you Tristan." He took the paper and looked at them.

"Tell him not to hold his breath on me showing up." He walked inside and Rory was looking at him. She walked over and wrapped her arms around his neck as he put his nose into her hair.

Tristan was looking at the paper in his hands and his mind was racing. He picked up his phone and called his mom.

"Tristan."

"Yea mom I wanted to talk to you about something."

"Is everything alright?"

"Yea Rory is pregnant." The phone was quite.

"I'm going to be a grandma?" He smiled and closed his eyes.

"Yea you want to come and meet her?"

"When?"

"Well her little sister is staying for the week so how about next week?"

"I would love to meet the girl who you fell in love with Tristan." He leaned back in the chair. "What else do you want to talk about Tristan?"

"I had some visitors today." He heard her sigh.

"They called me yesterday and wanted to know if I would go and see him."

"Are you?"

"It's been a long time Tristan. We need to move on and leave your father in the past."

"After what he did to you, you could just forgive him like nothing had happened?"

"I've forgiven him years ago Tristan. You grew up to be a wonderful man without him around."

"That's because we had Colin's dad to teach us how to be men."

"He did a great job with the three of you Tristan. It's up to you Tristan if you want to see him then you should. If you don't want to see him them don't. I'm just worried that if you don't then you will never forgive yourself for not going."

"Thanks mom see you next week love yea."

"I love you too sweetie." Tristan hung up the phone as Rory and Jess walked into the living room talking.

"Warners want us to film the pilot episode." Rory sat down on the arm of the chair as Tristan wrapped his arm around her waist.

"Where at?"

"The Warner Brothers Studio. They just sent out casting calls for the other parts. Since you are going to direct the first episode you will be needed there." He nodded to Jess and looked up at his wife.

"What are you thinking?" She looked down at him nervous.

"That I'm going to be sick." She took off running for the downstairs bathroom as Tristan got up and followed her. He helped her up and gave her a cool washcloth.

"You alright now?" She nodded and put her head on his shoulder. "You don't have to go with us for casting J and I can handle it."

"I want to be there." She moved away from him and he smiled.

"You know since you didn't write the show by yourself you really lost the bet."

"No I didn't." She looked up at him wide eyed.

"Yea the bet was by yourself, but Louise helped you think of ideas and she wrote some."

"Can we call it a tie?" He shook his head and laughed some.

"Ties are like kissing your sister might be fun to begin with, but after awhile people start to look at you." She laughed and smacked his arm.

"Speaking of sister?"

"Rory not right now please. Where is your sister?"

"Louise wanted to take her out for the day." Tristan raised his eyebrow at her.

"And you let her take your four year old sister without someone with them?"

"Yea so what?"

"She is going to come back acting more like a Californian then yesterday." They walked out of the bathroom and Tristan nodded to Jess as to tell him she was alright.

"What are you talking about?"

"You are going to have a little Louise on your hands." Rory saw the door opening and Aly and Louise walked inside. Aly had over sized sunglasses on and a designer handbag like Louise's bag.

"Rory look what Louise got me." She held out the bag and Rory just smiled.

"Is that a cell phone?" She was looking inside the bag as Louise nodded.

"Every little girl should have her own cell phone." Aly said as Tristan and Jess both laughed. Jess walked over and kissed Louise as Tristan bent down and picked up Aly.

"Did she feed you bear?" Aly shook her head no and Tristan walked her into the kitchen and sat her down on the counter.

"Louise Warners called today and the pilot is a go."

"Really my agent hasn't called me yet." Just then her cell phone rang and she saw it was her agent.

"I'm going to call Logan and Finn tell them the news so we can get everything singed off on it." He touched Rory's arm as he walked out of the room. Rory just sat on the couch thinking about how her life has changed so much this past year.

"Rory." She looked up at Tristan who was holding a sandwich out to her. "Paris wanted to know if you still wanted the movie review article."

"Yea I would love to get paid while watching movies." She grabbed the plate and took a bite. "When are we going to get writers and all the other things for the show?"

"Warners will want to screen the show with a test audience first. After they see what they think of it they will either give a green light for a few twenty two or thirteen or even eight shows. After they tell you how many shows you will be able to go get writers and things like that."


Walking into Logan's office was nothing new for Jess and Tristan, but for Rory it was totally different. She saw all the people who were on the phones talking to other people.

"How much is the phone bill here?" Tristan looked at her and laughed.

"Too fucking much that is how much." They saw Logan was standing with her door opened. "Warners has sent all the papers over and Steve has read them over." Rory looked over Tristan.

"Lawyer who works for Logan."

"Like I was saying Steve said everything is in order and just need you to sign them." She looked over at Tristan and he knew she wanted him to sign the papers first. He grabbed the pen and found his contract.

"How many years is this for?"

"Four seasons with two option seasons." He signed the contract and handed the pen over to Rory. She looked at hers and saw the name Lorelai DuGrey was written on the top of the contract.

"This is the first time I have ever signed anything with the DuGrey name." He smiled as she signed her name on the contract. "Seems strange not seeing Gilmore behind my name."

"Come on J you have one too." He signed his and Logan picked them up and put them in them in a folder. "They are going to want to talk to you three tomorrow and get other people in place for the show." They all walked out of the office. Tristan reached down and grabbed her hand as they elevator doors closed.


"Finn, Allison Lynn come here right this minute." Rory yelled as she walked into the house. Candy wrappers were all over the floor along with different toys. Finn walked inside with Aly they both her their heads down knowing they were in trouble. "What happened in here?"

"Would you believe that we have no idea Love?"

"Aly you know better then this. I want you to clean this place up and go to your room and don't come down until I say so." She nodded and walked around the room picking up her toys. Finn was walking back outside. "Where are you going? You have to help her."

"What if I don't?"

"I'll call Paris and tell her that you spent all morning with another girl."

"You're mean Love." He was now helping Aly pick up. Tristan and Jess were both laughing as she turned around looking at them.

"I fill sorry for our little boy."

"It's going to be a girl and I'm going to be a cool mom." She crossed her arms over her chest as Tristan walked up to her. He put his hands on her shoulders.

"Sorry babe it's going to be a boy Tristan Jr."

"Even if we have a boy no way in hell is he going to be a Jr."

"So if it's a girl she won't be named Lorelai?" He raised his eyebrows at her.

"The name has three generations in my family."

"What if I want to start my name generation?" She uncrossed her arms and put her hands on his forearms.

"How about we wait to see if it's a boy or girl first before we talk about name?"

"Deal." He leaned down and kissed her.


"Paris what the hell is this?" Paris looked up from her desk and saw Tristan holding out a paper.

"I tried Tristan, but they went to the media and I'm now trying to figure out how to spin it." The paper headline read 'Dying father last wish is to see his oldest son' It had an interview with his father about how Tristan won't even come and visit him not one thing about how he left Tristan and his mom.

"This is bullshit Paris."

"I can get you an interview with someone about this."

"You know I don't want to talk about this. All it will do is hurt mom." He sat down as Paris walked over to him. She was rubbing his back. "All these years trying to keep mom out of this and now they go and do something like this to me. We never asked anything from him we done everything by ourselves and we made it work."

"That's not all Tristan. I just got a call about Rory's father situation." He stood up and Paris saw the angry in his eyes.

"Who said something about that?"

"An ex of hers."

"Michael?"

"No someone named Dean." He rubbed his face. "And her father is now talking about it."

"When everything is going right for us something like this happens. Do what ever you can to keep her and her family out of this. I'll do one interview and talk about how they both left us and we both grew up great or something along those lines."

"I'll see what I can do."

"Hello."

"Mom they know everything." Rory was crying into the phone.

"Rory who know what?"

"Chris is talking to the media about you not letting him see me when I was growing up."

"He never wanted to see you after I married Luke when you were four."

"They are also talking to Dean about it."

"He didn't even know that Luke wasn't your father until the day before you two broke up."

"I'm sorry mom." Lorelai heard someone trying whispering something to Rory and she knew it was Tristan.

"For what?"

"Dragging you into this and hurting you."

"Rory I'm not hurt. I gave up on Chris doing the right thing years ago. Nothing he does can hurt me or your father or Aly."

"Tell dad that I love him and that I'm sorry."

"Rory your dad won't blame you for anything and you know that. Everything will work out in the end like it always does for us Danes girls."

"I love you mom."

"Love you too kid." She hung up the phone and turned right into Tristan shoulder and cried.
