*AN: Luckily I was able to update in a few days after I posted the last chapter. Anyways I decided to add Chris to the story and I wrote mostly about Lorelai and Christopher on this chapter. I hope you would still give me feedbacks. A chapter or two, I promise to make Rory tell Tristan.*
"Arg! This is so great! Your dad is so mad at me for not telling him earlier and now he's blaming me and he said if I told him earlier, he would be here taking care of you or whatsoever instead of taking care of Sherry and her newborn child," Lorelai grunted when she heard Rory entered the house and heard nothing from Rory
"Rory?" Lorelai frowned and got up from the sofa to the door
"mom…" Lorelai found her leaning against the wall, trying to keep her balance and obviously she doesn't look good.
"Rory? Are you okay?"
Rory said nothing, she was panting and holding her chest. "Mom…"
"Rory?" Lorelai ran to her, Rory grabbed her for support and comfort and she was obviously in pain
"oh my god Rory! We have to get you to the doctor now!" Lorelai panicked and grabbed the keys on the table and helped Rory to the jeep.
Lorelai drove fast to Hartford Hospital and Rory was having a hard time breathing. When they got there, Lorelai ran into the emergency room and called for help. A guy came to her and they went to the jeep and he carried Rory inside.
"Excuse me, can you tell me where Doctor Williamson is?" Lorelai asked the nurse at the desk
"hmmm…he would be at the supply room, second door at your right ma'am," the nurse replied, Lorelai nodded in thank and went to look for him. Dr. Williamson was Rory's doctor and also who delivered her.
"Dr. Williamson!" Lorelai found him exactly where the nurse said he would be. Dr. Williamson looked up from the box he was going through
"Lorelai Gilmore? Is there something wrong?" he asked
"yes…it's Rory…" she said. Dr. Williamson ran out of the room and went to the room where Rory was lying down on the bed. Dr. Williamson immediately checked on her, and asked Lorelai to wait outside. Lorelai obeyed and sat at the chair nailed against the wall.
Please, let my baby be alright…let my baby be alright. Lorelai prayed.
After half an hour, Dr. Williamson exited from the room and sat down beside Lorelai.
"how is she?" she asked, trying to be strong to hear the news and it's obviously not going to be a good news.
"I'm sorry Lori…" he said. Lorelai sobbed and he comforted her with a hug.
The ride back home was silent. Rory was fast asleep and Lorelai was paying attention to the road. Many things were going through her mind and of course this wasn't the first time. When they got home, Lorelai didn't want to wake her up and she didn't see someone sitting on the porch.
"hey,"
Lorelai jumped
"Chris? What are you doing here?" she frowned
"I'm here because of Rory," Chris said, getting up from the porch and noticed Lorelai's stained tears
"what happened?" Chris asked in a concerning tone
Lorelai shook her head, "can you help carry her to her room?"
Chris simply nodded and picked up Rory to his arms. Lorelai closed the jeep and opened the door. Chris placed Rory down on her bed and covered her with a blanket.
"It hurts…" he heard her mumble softly
Chris was saddened. Lorelai stood at the door watching.
"Chris…" she said. Chris shrugged and closed the door and they went to the living room
"She's that worse already huh?" he said sadly, she didn't say anything
Chris scoffed and shook his head in dismay, "I'm sorry about earlier Lorelai. I should have not got mad at you…it's just hard to believe…and I really meant it what I said earlier…"
Lorelai frowned, "meant what? That you're going to stay?"
He nodded his head
"that would be nice if you stay, so that you can spent time with her…but what about Sherry?"
"well, it's been over since before the summer began,"
"what? It's over? And what happened to your child?"
"it's not my child," he said. Lorelai gaped at him, "what?"
"I broke up with her when I found out she slept with another man…she explained it to me that she was drunk and she got pregnant with his kid. She thought it was mine but then during an appointment, the doctor said that she was having twins."
"Twins? Sherry had twins?"
"yes…and when he said twins, I knew there's something wrong. Sherry and I both have no gene of twins or triplets in our generation and we had a fight and I broke up with her after a week," Chris shrugged
Lorelai felt bad for him, she placed her hand on his hands and he looked up at her, he saw tears forming in her eyes
"Lore?" he frowned,
she shook her head, "we'll talk tomorrow Chris, I'm tired,"
he sighed and agreed
"I'll see you tomorrow morning, take the couch, blanket and pillow in the closet there," she said getting up heading for her room upstairs. Chris nodded and watched her went into her room. When the door closed, he heard her sob.
"Rory…" he said sadly and went to sleep.
"Good morning Lorelai," Chris greeted her when she came down
"hey," she said wearily and sat down on the table
"have ya check on her already?" she asked
"yes, she's still sleeping…how long have she got? I want to know," he placed a coffee in front of her, she only stared at the mug
"Lore?"
"you made me coffee?"
"Lore…"
"I'm sorry Chris, I just didn't want to think about it," she said, taking the mug into her hands
"Lore…can you tell me?"
Lorelai sighed and looked up to him, she was about to tell him when Rory came out from her room
"mom…dad?"
"hey Rory, how are you feeling? Why don't you stay in bed and rest some more?" her dad said
"I smell coffee," she said
Lorelai weakly smiled and handed her the mug and Rory took it and sipped it
"nice coffee, so dad…what brought you here?" she was curious
"uh…your mom told me yesterday and I came over to spent more time with you…"
Rory's face stiffened at first but then she calmed down and went to Chris and hugged him, he hugged her back and broke the embrace
"I'm glad you're here dad, sorry for not telling you earlier…" she apologized
"it's okay but…it's not really okay Rory…why don't you take some more rest…" he said.
"I'm sorry dad..." Chris shook his head, Rory shrugged and handed him the mug. She walked back to her room and closed the door.
"oh Lorelai…" Chris collapsed on the chair and placed his hand on his forehead, massaging them
"Chris…I hate to say this but…she won't make it to graduation," she said.
