Telling Mom, Dad, and the "father"
Summary: What if Lorelai Gilmore had a younger sister? What if she became pregnant? How will Richard and Emily take it?
A/N: I own none of the characters except for Lydia, and a couple of other characters that will be created later in the story. The Gilmore regulars belong to the lucky people at the WB.
Characters in this story: Lorelai Gilmore, 34, Rory Gilmore, 18, Richard Gilmore, 55, Emily Gilmore, 54, Lydia Gilmore, 17, Sam Huntington, 16, and Matt Kemper, 17. (I have changed the ages, to fit better)
A/N: Sam is a girl, not a boy. Just to clear that up a bit.
Lydia eventually went back to her parents' house, because they were beginning to wonder why she always wanted to stay at Lorelai's. She always told them it was because Lorelai wasn't so controlling.
***Early Morning at Richard and Emily's***
Emily: Lydia Jane Gilmore, get up, you are going to be late for school.
Lydia: Mom, I'm sick, I am going to stay home today.
Emily: You will do no such thing young lady.
Lydia: Mom, if you want to come and watch me puke in this here porcelain toilet, you are more than welcome too.
Emily: No thank you. I will call Chilton.
Lydia: Thanks. And after you do that, would you come up here. I need to talk to you.
Emily: I am not going to watch you vomit, Lydia.
Lydia: No mom, just come up here in a bit, okay?
Emily: Okay, I will. ( she sounded a little scared because about 18 years ago, Lorelai gave her the same excuse, and then she told her that she was pregnant)
***Lydia's room, ten minutes later, Emily is knocking***
Lydia: Come in mom.
Emily: Well, what did you need? I am going to be late for my hair appointment. I don't want to have to wait until next Wednesday.
Lydia: Well, mom. I don't know how to say this.
Emily: Well, say it. Go ahead.
Lydia: I.......am.......pregnant.
Emily: No, no you are not. This can't be. There is just no way.
Lydia: Mom, listen I ha...(she was cut out by a hostile Emily)
Emily: Out.
Lydia: What?
Emily: Get out of this house.
Lydia: Mom.
Emily: Go wherever. I don't care. Just get out. This isn't going to shame the Gilmore name again.
Lydia: But mo...
Emily: Out I said! No need to tell your father just yet. I will handle that part. Just go. Go now.
Lydia left after she packed her suitcase. She left in her car and headed to Chilton. There, she looked for Matt. She found him in Gym class. She yanked him by the ear and made him go outside with her.
Lydia: Listen here Matt. I am pregnant with you baby and was just kicked out of my parents house. So you better listen up or I will go totally psycho on you.
Matt: I am listening. (still paying attention to his throbbing ear)
Lydia: I am going to go live with my sister, Lorelai. She lives in Stars Hollow. That is about 30 minutes south of here. I am not expecting you to help support this baby or anything. I just want to be able to count on you to be able to be there for our child, and me for that matter.
Matt: Listen, Lyd. I want to be there for you and the baby. But I will help pay for the doctor and hospital visits.
Lydia: Yeah. I should hope so. I want this baby to have a father. Not a father it can count on for a call on their birthday or anything like that.
Matt: Lydia, when is your next appointment?
Lydia: December 9th. Why?
Matt: I will be there. What time?
Lydia: 12:30. Matt. You are reacting totally the wrong way I had expected.
Matt: Listen, Lyd. I am the one who didn't use a condom while making this baby.
Lydia: Yeah, well. I should have been more careful too.
Matt: But the pressure was more on me to be the careful one.
Lydia: Thanks Matt. December 9th, 12:30. Don't be late. I will probably bring Lorelai with me. She is a pretty good support.
Matt: I'll be there. By the way, when is our little bundle due to arrive?
Lydia: June 26th.
Matt: Okay then. I will keep that open.
Lydia: Well, okay then.
Lydia was still very shocked at how Matt had reacted. She had not expected that at all. Something told her that it would not last for long. He was probably just saying all of that. Meanwhile, she was going to go talk to Lorelai about living arrangements.
*** At the Inn***
Lorelai: Lydia, what are you doing here? It's a school day.
Lydia: I did it.
Lorelai: Did what?
Lydia: Told mom.
Lorelai: When?
Lydia: This morning. About an hour ago. I told Matt too. And he reacted totally weird. Like he was happy about the whole thing.
Lorelai: What? You did. Sweetie. What did she say? Lydia: Well, she basically kicked me out of the house.
Lorelai: What? She did? Honey, I'm so sorry. What can I do?
Lydia: Well, I need a place to crash, and a friend slash sister to talk to.
Lorelai: Well, you have that all wrapped in to one right here in Stars Hollow.
Lydia: What do you mean?
Lorelai: I mean that you can crash here for a while if you want. Ya know, just until the baby is born.
Lydia: Really Lor? Do ya mean it?
Lorelai: Yeah, I do.
Lydia: God, thanks, Lor. You have no idea how much that means to me. (starts to cry a little)
Lorelai: Oh hon. don't worry about it. I'll take off the rest of the day and we will have a "Let Lydia wallow while Lorelai listens and comforts her" day.
Lydia: That sounds good.
Lorelai: Michel, I'm gonna go with Lydia. Call me if you need anything from me.
Michel: Yeah I won't.
Lorelai: Bye Michel.
Lydia: Thanks again Lor. I don't understand how cool you are.
Lorelai: My coolness comes and goes. Just ask Rory. She'll tell you some of the uncool times she has had with me. Then you'll think I'm cool.
Lydia: Let's just go with the " I think you're cool" part for now.
Lorelai: Okay. We will. Where to go for breakfast.
Lydia: Gee Lor, would you like to go to Luke's because it is Danish day? (sarcastically)
Lorelai: Why Lydia, you just read my mind. ( in sort of a country tone voice). Luke's it is.
Lydia: Hey Lor?
Lorelai: Yeah sweets?
Lydia: Thanks again.
Lorelai: You're welcome.
***A/N: What do you think so far? Reviews are always helpful!! Any thoughts on the boy or girl thing? Give me ideas on what you think***
~Next Chapter~ the next chapter is set in March. I skipped ahead a little bit. Things needed to get moving because there are big things that are going to happen once the baby is born. It is entitled: "Boy or Girl?"
