Fourteen Months Later-
It was Lexie's first official visit to Stars Hollow. She had been to Lorelai's plenty of times for holidays like Rory's birthday, Tristan's birthday, mother's day, Christmas, Halloween any holiday possible Rory and Lexie would go sometimes with Tristan but most often not. This was her first outing to Luke's. Rory loved Lexie; she was the best little girl the best one a mother could ever want. As Lexie, Lorelai, Rory and Tory made their way to Luke's they were stopped a million times so it seemed so everyone could get a look at Lexie. Rory was becoming annoyed; Lexie was getting fussy as they entered the diner. Luke saw their four looks of annoyance he quickly shut down the diner, no questions asked. "What can I get you?" he asked them. Three of them replied coffee. As he went to the coffee pot and poured out three cups, silence filled the diner until a little voice filled the diner. "COFFEE!" she shrieked. "Lex?" Rory asked surprised. "COFFEE!" she cried out again this time clapping her hands in amusement. "She's a Gilmore alright!" came Lorelai's exclamation. "Great," came Luke's sarcastic answer. "Isn't it?" Rory asked her innocent smile lighting up her whole face. "Here's your burgers," he said handing over three plates making the three older Gilmore Girls look at each other surprised. "COFFEE!" called out Lorelai and Lexie.

Lexie had been talking for the past two month since Rory had come home rambling about Lexie saying coffee as her first word and how much she was going to be like her and Lorelai. Soon after her vocabulary had expanded with words like dada, mama and even fen-fen for Fenway! Every night Tristan would come home and Lexie with Rory holding her hands would walk over to him and then she would hug him and then he would swing her around the room making her giggle like an idiot. One afternoon Tristan came home to find Lexie sitting on the floor of the living room playing with some blocks. "Lex!" he greeted his daughter. "Dada!" he got down on his knees arms outstretched. Lexie had a very determined look on her face reminding Tristan of her mother. "Tristan? Your home?" called out Rory's voice. "Shh!" he called back making Rory glance into the living room to see Lexie standing up unsteadily, for the first time on her own. "Tris." she began worriedly until she saw Lexie take her first step. Rory gasped as she saw her daughter before her very own eyes reach Tristan and hug her father. "Great Job, kiddo!" he complimented her. "Tanks Dada!" came her reply. He looked up and smiled at Rory who smile back at him; hard to believe her little girl was growing up already.

"You ready for school?" Rory asked Lexie. "Yes Mommy!" came her happy reply. "Good now we have to go pick up Megan (Lane and Henry's three year old-three months younger than Lexie) and then Ethan (Jess and Paris's 3- year-old-nine months younger than Lexie). "Do we have to pick up Ethan?" came her muffled reply from the couch. "Yes, we do.why?"
"He calls me Mary," Rory laughed for a moment and then seeing Lexie's stubborn expression Rory apologized. "I'm sorry sweetie but your Daddy called me Mary to,"
"Why?"
"Because he liked me and I think Ethan likes you too, honey,"
"Ick!" came the girl's disgusted reply. Rory and Lexie left after saying goodbye to Fenway and Tristan who were both watching television. "Mommy, What if I don't like school?"
"You will remember you met Miss Rachel and Megan's in your class, plus your father and I always liked school," Rory helped her buckle in and then she got into the driver's seat. "We're going to Ethan's first," came Rory's cheery voice ignoring Lexie's protests. Five minutes later they arrived at the Mariano's penthouse. Rory rang the bell and waited for Malaya to answer. "Hello Miss Rory and Miss Lexie," the British au pair said with a bright smile. "Hello Malaya!" greeted Lexie smiling at her favorite babysitter. "Where's Jess and Ethan?" Rory asked looking around and not seeing either person. "In the dining room eating Miss Rory," Rory grabbed Lexie and dragged her into the dining room. "Hey Jess," Rory greeted sitting down at the table with Lexie in her lap for the moment. "Hey Rory.what are you doing here?"
"It's our first day of preschool!" the girl announced proudly to Jess. "First day, huh?" came Jess's reply. "Yep," she said nodding when Ethan entered. "Morning Dad, Rory and." his lips curled into a smirk making Rory glance at Jess who was watching the two in amusement. "Mary!"
"Ethan," she groaned looking away from him. "You ready Ethan?" Rory asked him. He nodded and followed the two of them out to the car. Lexie was quiet as was Ethan and Rory she kept quiet wondering when they grow up they'd wind up together. They picked up Megan making Lexie perk up and they began chattering while Ethan remained quiet, Rory noticed him glancing at Lexie every two minutes and she had to smile. She finally arrived at their preschool with a quick kiss on the cheek Lexie headed into the preschool with Megan and Ethan. Rory sighed her little girl was growing up faster and faster.

"Hey Sweetie!" Rory greeted her daughter as she climbed into the car after another day of school. "Hey mom," she greeted with a smile glad that the day was over. "Did you do anything interesting today?"
"We went to the apple farm!"
"How exciting!" they continued to talk about the day and they arrived home Tristan was sitting on the couch reading Rory's most recent book 'Growing up in Stars Hollow' when he looked up to see his favorite girls walk in. "Hey honey," he said to Lexie making her run over and hug him. Rory had to smile she did always love the daughter-father moments in their family. It was how Lexie first started walking anyways. She sat down next to the two of them. "Do you want to tell her?" he asked Rory. "Tell me what?" she asked backing away from her father and looking at both of them. "Well.your mom has some news,"
"What!" she cried out jumping up and down in excitement. "How would you like a younger brother or sister?"
"Oh my god!" she shrieked even jumping up more on her bed. "I take that you want one," Rory said with a smile. "I'll just be like Megan's little sister Katie!"
"You could be a boy though honey,"
"I know but I really want a sister," she said with a smile. "We never got to have siblings sweetie so either way I think you'll love him or her like a big sister should,"
"I will Mommy don't worry," she assured Rory and Tristan. "Can I call Megan?"
"Go ahead," she ran into the kitchen and dialed Megan's number. "Megan! Guess what! I'm going to be a big sister."
"I think she's happy," Tristan told Rory with a grin. "I think so too," came Rory's happy reply. She hoped it would be a boy for Tristan's sake.

"Lexie!" called out Tristan DuGrey when he opened the door with his wife and his newborn son Dan Janlan Gilmore-Dugrey. "Where's Troy?" (A/N: It's a weekend and Tory's fifteen and she came up to see Lexie, Rory and Tristan) Rory asked him as they stepped into the apartment with Dan in Rory's arms. "It says went out to the playground will be back in ten minutes,"
"Was she excited when she heard about Dan?"
"I don't know," he replied "She was happy but she missed you," Rory smiled and suddenly the door swung open and in entered Tory with Lexie. "Rory! Oh my god is that Dan!" cried out Tory racing over to see letting go of Lexie's hand. Lexie stayed back shyly. "Lexie!" called out Rory. "Yeah Mom?" came her uncertain reply. "Do you want to meet your little brother?"
"Okay," she agreed going over to her mother, father and half-aunt. Rory handed Dan to her and she held him. He began to cry for a moment, unsure if this strange person would drop him or not. "Shh," the little girl whispered down at the little boy in front of her. She began to sing softly to him making him stop his crying. Rory and Tristan watched both of their children together in amazement, Lexie seemed to be entranced and somehow they both knew Lexie would be the best big sister she could be.
