"Mom, I'm gonna be late for graduation, I can't zip my dress!" Rory yelled coming out of her room, her only response was Lorelei's bursting laughter, "Thanks a lot, your a big help." She ran back into her room and pulled on a different dress, this one a stretchy cotton one. She put on flat shoes and grabbed her graduation gown and cap and headed for the car. Lorelei met her at the car and off they went. After graduation Rory, Lorelei, Paris, Emily, Richard, Luke, Sookie, and Jackson went to olive Garden to celebrate.
"So, Rory, when is your next doctor's appointment?" Richard asked.
"Not till next week, on Thursday," Rory replied, "We move into the new apartment on Monday."
"About that, Rory, Paris, Richard and I want to help pay for the apartment, as a way of helping with the baby." Emily said.
"Thanks Grandma, That would be nice," Rory whispered as she got up and hugged her grandparents.
The baby shower was held the next day and Rory got everything she needed for the baby. On Monday a moving truck arrived and the girls went to the new apartment to start setting up. They set up all the rooms, saving the nursery for last.
They painted the nursery pale yellow with small teddy bears on the walls. They put a dark wood crib, changing table, rocking chair, and matching dresser in the room. The put the few clothes they had in the dresser and parked the light blue and yellow teddy bear travel system stroller in the corner.
On Thursday Rory headed to her doctor's appointment. She arrived and signed in. The nurse called her back and told Rory to change and that the doctor would be right with her. The doctor came in and had Rory lie down and he started a sonogram.
"Would you like to know the sex?" he asked, at Rory's nod he moved the probe and focused it, "You have a healthy baby girl." He said smiling.

Rory smiled, tears pooling in her eyes, the doctor left and Rory got dressed and went out into the reception room. She made a new appointment and then headed for home.
Rory arrived home and went inside, Paris wasn't home yet, so Rory started to fix lunch. She fixed some rice, chicken, and gravy. After she ate she let her mind wonder, an idea came to her as she absently ran her hand over her four month pregnant belly. She got up, grabbed the phone and dialed a number she knew by heart. Jess answered on the third ring.
"Jess, we need to talk." Rory whispered into the phone.
