Does This Mean I Have to Marry Him?
I own none of these characters, blah blah blah.
It was the middle of August 2001, and Lorelai and Rory Gilmore were on their way home from their road trip. Lorelai had a very sad look on her face. Rory kept looking over at her mother's sad face, wondering what she was thinking. She knows that her mom wishes that she still loved Max Medina, but it wasn't in her heart.
Lorelai felt a little weak on their trip, but she thought that it was just because she was so sad, and not what it really was. She hadn't told anyone yet, she couldn't even tell herself. How could she do this to another one? She couldn't tell Max, because then he would come running back to her. She didn't want that. Lorelai Gilmore was pregnant with Max Medina's baby. She kept thinking to herself that it would be better for the baby if she married him. But she knew that she couldn't find the love in her heart to do that.
Lorelai: Rory, come here please, we need to talk.
Rory: Hold on mom, I'll be there in a second.
Rory: Okay, I'm here, what did I do.
Lorelai: You did nothing. It's me and something about me and Max.
Rory: Oh my God, you're getting back together! I knew it!
Lorelai: No, we're not getting married or back together. Rory, I'm pregnant.
Rory: You're what? With Max's baby?
Lorelai: Yeah, with Max's baby. The baby is due the 25th April.
Rory: Mom, I don't know what to say. Have you told Max yet?
Lorelai: No, not yet, I'm going to call him tonight and tell him. Does this mean that I have to marry him?
Rory: If you love him then yes, but if you don't, the best bet for this baby is that you shouldn't. It doesn't need to grow up knowing that its parents only got married for him or her and not for their love of each other. You and dad didn't do that, and I turned out fine. If you love him mom, marry him.
Lorelai: I don't love him. But you have no idea how much I wish I did, for the sake of our baby.
