Chapter 28

The doorbell rang one evening and Luke, under duress, was the one who had to go and answer it. He opened the door and was surprised by who he saw.

"What are you doing here?" Chris asked.

"Um living here.." Luke said.

Chris was shocked. Lorelai had moved him in now? He pushed past him. "Lore..." He said. He then noticed her rounded stomach. "You're pregnant..." He said stunned.

Lorelai turned round and was shocked. "Chris? What are you doing here? And yes, I am."

"Well you don't waste any time muscling in on my family." He glared at Luke.

"Chris, stop it! Why are you here?"

"I wanted to see you and maybe talk to Rory and Jamie." He said.

"You can't just come unexpected, Chris. You need to call if you want to come over." She said.

"Yeh I can see why! Were you going to tell me you moved the diner man into the house with my kids?" He said. "And who are you?" He said noticing Jess.

"The diner man's nephew." He said sarcastically.

"Chris, Jess is living with Luke now, so therefore he's living with us." Lorelai said calmly.

He narrowed his eyes. "Well I wanted to see my kids."

Jamie snorted.

"What?" Chris said.

"First time I've heard you mention kids. You've never cared about me before." Jamie retorted.

"That's not true!" Chris protested.

"Um yes it is! You either come to try and win mom back or you just want to hang out with Rory." Jamie said.

"I want to hang out with you too, Jamie. Please. Can we talk? You can tell me what's going on with your life." He said.

Jamie stood up. "You want to know what's going on with my life? Fine! My girlfriend's pregnant and I'm raising the kid myself. Happy now?" He said angrily.

"What?" Chris said shocked. He looked at Lorelai. "How?"

"I think you know how people have kids." Jamie said sarcastically. "You did that bit, you just ran off when we actually appeared."

"That's not fair!" Chris said.

"I want to know my kid and I want to be a better dad than you are." Jamie said.

"Wow..." Chris said, trying to get his head round what Jamie had just been told. "I'm going to be a grandpa."

"No, Luke is going to be a grandpa." Jamie said.

Luke looked up at this and saw Chris glaring at him. "I'm your father! Biologically, I'm going to be the grandpa." He said angrily.

"Not if I don't let you see my kid." Jamie said.

Chris stared at him. "What?"

"You just expect you can be a part of my kid's life when you haven't been there for us?" Jamie said.

Chris got angry. "Hey! I deserve some respect!"

"Yeh well respect is earned!"

He turned to Lorelai. "Lore!"

"It's his decision, Chris." She said staying out of it.

Chris glared at Luke. "You! You turned them all against me!"

"I think you did that yourself." Luke said.

"You think you're so great, trying to replace me!" He fumed.

"I wasn't trying to replace you. I was just there for them when they needed it." Luke said.

"Dad...please just go..." Rory said trying to keep the peace.

Chris looked at her and his expression softened a bit. "Rory..."

Rory shook her head. "No, I told you last time that if you couldn't accept that Luke was part of our lives now then it would be hard for us to have a relationship!"

"He's trying to replace me! How do you think that makes me feel?"

"I don't know but you know who actually encouraged us to have a relationship with you?" She said. "Luke! He's always encouraged us. So maybe you actually owe him something." She said.

Chris was shocked. He sighed. "Look, I'm sorry ok. It was just a shock."

"I think you should go." Luke said taking a step forward.

Chris glared at him. "Fine! But you haven't heard the last from me!" He then stormed out.

Luke looked at Jamie. "You ok?"

Jamie nodded. "Thanks."

They gradually settled back down to what they were doing before.


The next afternoon, Luke and Jess were at the diner. Rory was at Lane's. Lorelai was doing some paperwork in the kitchen while Jamie and Charlotte were sat in the living room.

"So how are you feeling?" Jamie asked.

"I'm ok. Not had that much morning sickness yet." Charlotte said. "I have a scan on Monday, will you come with me?" She asked.

"Try and stop me." Jamie smiled.

Charlotte smiled back. "So how are you?"

"Yeh I'm ok. Had an ugly confrontation with my dad yesterday but apart from that." He shrugged.

"Sorry. Was it about the baby?" Charlotte asked.

"Yeh well part of it was. He found out that Luke was living with us as well so that didn't help matters much." He said.

"Ahh..." Charlotte said understanding.

"Yeh..."

"So how's your mom doing with her pregnancy?" She asked.

"Yeh she's good. The kid's definitely Luke's though. It makes her only ever want to eat salads." He smirked.

Charlotte laughed. "I bet Luke's happy."

Jamie chuckled.

Suddenly the doorbell rang and Lorelai went and answered it.

"I can not believe you, Lorelai!" Emily shouted, barging into the house.

"Hi to you too, mom." Lorelai said.

"Were you ever going to tell us that we are going to be great grandparents?" She shouted, pushing her way into the living and her eyes narrowed when she saw Jamie and Charlotte there.

"Mom, how..?" Lorelai said shocked glancing at Jamie.

"Wouldn't you like to know?" She said. "We need to talk. Now." She said.
