A/N: Luke and Lorelai got married a year before Rory's pregnancy
Chapter 1: The Birth of Ross Gilmore Forester and Lora (Lorelai) Gilmore Forester
Two Years Later........
[Dean]
Dean Forester sat on the couch with his nine-month pregnant wife, Rory watching Casablanca. It wasn't Dean's favorite movie, but it was Rory's so he watched it for her sake. He looked down at her, but she still stared at the TV. Finally, she looked up.
"May I help you?" she asked.
"You're so pretty," Dean said.
"Thanks," Rory said, reaching grabbing the bowl of popcorn. "You sure know how to make a pregnant girl blush. Want some?"
Dean stared at the bowl. "It's empty," he said.
"It is?" Rory asked. "Oh, god. I did it again. I'm so sorry."
"It's okay," Dean said.
"I'll make some more," Rory said, trying to get up.
"No, you'll sit down," Dean said, putting her back on the couch. "I'll make some more."
Dean grabbed the bowl and walked over to the kitchen and tripped over the packed suitcase by the counter in case Rory went into labor.
"Are you okay?" Rory asked.
"Yeah," Dean said.
Dean put the popcorn in the microwave and turned it on. He was about to ask Rory if she wanted anything else when she stood up.
"What?" he asked.
"My water broke," Rory said.
The alarm in Dean's head went off as he grabbed the suitcase and ushered Rory out the door and got in the car and drove as quick as he could to the Connecticut Memorial Hospital. He knew the way so well because he used to work there.
"Did you start having contractions?" Dean asked.
"Not yet," Rory answered.
Dean kept driving and accidentally cut off another car.
"WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT, YOU ASS?" the driver yelled.
"SORRY!" Dean yelled back. "HAVING A BABY!"
"I'M CALLING THE POLICE!" the driver yelled. "YOU'RE GETTING REPORTED!"
On impulse Dean flashed his middle finger at the driver and kept driving. Rory stared at him wide-eyed.
"Did you just give that guy the finger?" Rory said.
"I'm sorry," Dean said. "It was the only time I did it to anyone and I'll never do it again."
"I guess I can see your point of view," Rory said. "I mean.......OW! Oh, god help me!"
"What?"
"I'm having contractions. OW!"
"Okay, breathe. Breathe. Breathe."
Rory did her breathing, but stopped after a while.
"I WANT THE DRUGS, DEAN!" she yelled.
"Rory, don't talk like that," Dean said.
"I DON'T MEAN POT!"
"Look, just keep breathing. I just have to take one more turn and we'll be there."
Dean made a left into the parking lot of the Connecticut Memorial hospital. He slowly slid into a parking space, making sure he didn't hit any of the cars.
"DEAN, PLEASE PARK A LITTLE FASTER!" Rory yelled in pain.
Dean turned off the engine and grabbed the suitcase and helped her out of the car and they ran into the hospital. Ellen, the middle-aged bitter receptionist, was sitting at her desk reading a magazine.
"Ellen," Dean said. "This is Rory Gilmore-"
"I know," Ellen interrupted him. "She's been a frequent visitor over the past five years."
Dean automatically knew what Ellen was talking about. Rory had gotten in a car crash five years ago where Dean was the orderly. Then, Rory was admitted back because someone was beating up Dean and she tried to stop, but she got beat up as well.
Rory also had to keep coming to see Dr. Weinstein, her frequent doctor. So she was well known around the hospital. She had also been coming in for false alarms.
"She's in labor," Dean said.
"Fill these out," Ellen said, throwing Dean forms not looking up from her magazine.
Dean and Rory looked over the forms to see that they were already filled out. They handed them back to Ellen. Ellen gave them a series of forms. Finally, Rory couldn't take it anymore. She walked up to the desk.
"Look!" she yelled at Ellen. "I'm having CONTRACTIONS! OKAY? SO CAN YOU LOOK UP FROM YOUR DAMN MAGAZINE AND GIVE ME SOME BLANK FORMS SO I CAN GET THIS PERSON OUT OF ME?"
Dean was slightly afraid at Rory's behavior and yet he found it funny. Ellen wasn't a very nice person and no one ever yelled at her.............until now. He could tell that Ellen was also scared because she stared at her wide-eyed and gave Rory some blank forms.
"I'll page Dr. Weinstein," Ellen said, nervously.
"Thank you," Rory said, sitting down and clutching her stomach.
[Rory]
"Okay, Rory, it's almost time to start pushing," Dr. Weinstein said.
Rory was crying from the pain. It was so bad. Now I know how Mom felt when she had me, Rory thought.
"Is Mom here?" Rory asked Dean.
"Yes, she just came in and she just called," Dean said.
"THIS IS BAD!" Rory cried. "I HATE THIS!"
"I know," Dean said. "Relax, you'll get through this."
A scream worked it's way up Rory's throat as the pain grew worse and Rory tried to force it down.
"Um, sweetie," Dean said. "I kind of.......have to go to the bathroom so............Do you mind if I take a bathroom break?"
Rory couldn't take it anymore. Rory cried out in pain and clutched Dean's hand.
"Okay, I can wait," Dean said.
He started bouncing, which meant that he really had to go. Rory usually found it cute, but now it annoyed her.
"No," Rory gasped. "Go pee. Get my Mom in here!"
"Thanks," Dean bolted like lightning and a few seconds later Lorelai materialized by her side.
"How ya doing, kiddo?" Lorelai asked.
"Peachy," Rory said.
"I know it hurts," Lorelai said. "But, it'll be worth it."
Rory cried again in pain.
"Excuse me," Lorelai said to a nurse. "Can my daughter hit you?"
"What?" the nurse looked shocked.
"Or pinch you really hard?" Lorelai continued. "Or bite you or pull your hair or use the Epilady on you? It might help her feel better."
"MOM!" Rory shouted. "NOT HELPING!"
"Relax, it's the same dialogue that I used when I was in labor with you," Lorelai said.
"Well, using the Epilady on an innocent nurse won't help remove this big pain," Rory said, breathing heavily. "OW!"
"Okay," Dr. Weinstein said. "It's time to start pushing."
"NO!" Rory shouted. "IT HURTS!!!"
"I know, sweetie," Lorelai said. "Just take a deep breath."
"Dean's not back yet!"
"I'm sorry, but we can't tell the baby to wait for him."
Suddenly Dean burst through the door.
"WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?" Rory shouted.
"I tripped in the hallway," Dean said.
"You seem to be doing a lot of that today."
"Lorelai, thanks you can go."
Lorelai gave Rory a quick kiss on her head and left the room. Dean went back to his place and grabbed Rory's hand.
"Okay, push," Dean coached.
Rory pushed with all the strength that she had. Beads of sweat started to form on her face.
"Oh, god!" Rory shouted. "I feel like I'm constipated!"
"Keep, concentrating, sweetie, you're doing great," Dean said.
Rory finally pushed until she heard crying.
"Okay, here's your baby," Dr. Weinstein said, holding up a little baby boy.
Rory smiled as she stared at the baby as he was taken away to be cleaned. When he was gone, she collapsed into her pillows with her hair clinging to her sweaty face.
"Oh, my god," she said, breathing heavily.
"You did it, Ror," Dean said, giving her hand a squeeze.
Rory looked up and smiled at Dean and gave him a sweet long kiss. After a while they brought the baby back. After feeding him, Rory and Dean tried to decide on a name.
"It's either Richard after your grandfather or Ross after my cousin," Dean said. "We agreed on that, right?"
"Yeah," Rory said. "But, he doesn't seem that much like a Richard. He looks more like a Ross."
"Ross Gilmore Forester," Dean said, trying the name out. "Sounds good to me. What about you?"
"Me, too," Rory said.
"Can I hold him?"
"Sure. Watch his head."
Rory carefully handed Dean baby Ross. Rory got a little choked up seeing Dean holding him.
"Hey, Ross," Dean said. "I'm your daddy. If you need anything, I'll..........always have gum."
Rory had to laugh at his joke, even though he stole it from a TV show.
"Hey, Dean," Rory said.
"Yeah," Dean said.
"Thanks for helping me."
"No problem."
Three months later
[Rory]
Dean had gone to Chicago for a business conference and asked Luke and Lorelai to take care of her while he was gone (they were married a year before Ross was born), so Rory and Ross moved into the Gilmore-Danes' house until Dean came home because Rory was once again nine months pregnant. One day, Lorelai came into the living room after putting Ross down for a nap in Rory's old bedroom.
"How did you do that?" Rory asked. "It takes me an hour to put him down for a nap."
"It's a gift," Lorelai said. "Babies love me. My beautiful face puts them to sleep."
"I thought beautiful faces kept people awake," Rory said.
"Okay, I used a trick on him that I used on you when you were a baby."
"Which was........"
"I shook my car keys in your face."
"What?"
"The sounding of keys clanking together obviously puts you guys to sleep."
"It doesn't now and if I was just as smart as I am now, I wouldn't be able to sleep if someone shook jagged metal in my face."
"Funny, funny girl."
They stared watching their all time favorite movie Billy Jack when Rory slowly stood up from the couch.
"What?" Lorelai asked.
"I'm having a feeling of déjà vu," Rory said. "My water just broke."
"Baby time?"
"Baby time."
Lorelai quickly stood up and threw Rory her coat and hollered upstairs to Luke, who was fixing their shower, and then went into Rory's room.
"What are you doing?" Rory exclaimed.
"We have to take him with us," Lorelai said, holding a sleeping Ross.
"No!" Rory said. "Who's going to watch him?"
"Luke will."
"Oh, sure, Luke will," Luke said, coming down the steps. "He doesn't have a life of his own. He loves kids."
"Save the bitterness for the ride," Lorelai said.
"I was kidding," Luke said, sincerely. "You know I love Ross."
"Yeah, that's great, but we can't get sentimental now we've got baby number two coming. EVERYONE OUT THE DOOR! MOVE IT! MOVE IT! MOVE IT!"
"Mom!" Rory said. "Don't wake up Ross."
"Sorry," Lorelai whispered.
Rory and Lorelai slid in the front and Luke sat in the back with Ross. Rory suddenly felt a pain at the bottom of her stomach.
"Mom, the contractions are starting," Rory said, feeling a little panicked. "OW!"
"Okay, we're almost there," Lorelai said, taking out her cell phone.
"What are you doing? OW!"
"Checking my messages."
"OW! You're not supposed to drive and talk on your cell phone!"
"I have to do this, okay? Just do your breathing."
Lorelai hung up when they rounded the corner into the parking lot of the Connecticut Memorial Hospital and the four of them (including Ross) rushed inside. A few hours later, Rory laid on a hospital bed waiting until the doctor told her it was time for pushing.
"Just breathe, honey," Lorelai said.
"Okay, now I want to pinch or bite a nurse," Rory said.
"No, you can't do that. I was kidding when I said it."
"Well, then let me use the Epilady on you."
"Rory just breathe."
Rory sat up. She couldn't take it anymore. She wanted this child out of her body and she wanted it out now.
"That's it!" Rory said. "I'm pushing!"
"No!" Lorelai said.
"Yes!"
"No!"
"Yes!"
"No! Honey, don't push! Just relax."
Rory leaned back against the pillows trying to relax, but the pain was getting worse and worse. She started to push a little bit.
"You're pushing!" Lorelai exclaimed.
"No, I'm not!" Rory shot back.
"Yes, you are! I tried that!"
"Fine!"
"Am I late?" a deep voice asked.
Rory looked towards the doorway.
"Mom, it's been two years since I've done this," Rory said. "Does having a baby make you have hallucinations?"
[Dean]
Dean drove back to the Gilmore-Danes house when his pager started beeping. Dean sighed, thinking it was from work and read the page. It said: RORY'S IN LABOR! COME TO CMH! Dean made the U-turn and drove as fast as he could down to the Connecticut Memorial Hospital, knowing he was cutting off a lot of angry drivers. When he was inside, he ran into Luke and Ross in the hallway.
"DADDY!" Ross yelled, running up to Dean and giving him a hug.
"Hey, buddy," Dean said. "Where's Mommy?"
"Having a baby," Ross said.
"She's in there," Luke said, chuckling and gesturing towards a room a room two doors away from them.
"Thanks," Dean said, running down the hall and into a room.
When he got inside, Rory was trying to push and Lorelai was trying to get her not to. Rory wasn't screaming like last time, but she was yelling a bit.
"Am I late?" Dean asked.
"Mom, it's been two years since I've done this," Rory said. "Does having a baby make you have hallucinations?"
Dean chuckled. "I'm real," he said, going to the side of her bed.
"What are you doing here?" Rory asked.
"I paged him," Lorelai said.
"Mom, why did you do that? He was supposed to be in a conference."
"I was coming home to surprise you and Ross," Dean said. "But, your mom paged me so I'm here."
"Thanks," Rory said.
"Okay," Dr. Weinstein said. "It's time to start pushing so I need only the father."
"That's me," Lorelai said.
"MOM!" Rory yelled.
"Sorry, I'll see you later," Lorelai said, giving Rory a kiss on the forehead and giving Dean a quick peck on the cheek and rushing out the door.
"Okay, Rory, push," Dean coached her.
"Alright the baby's coming," Dr. Weinstein said.
"I have to see this," Dean said, leaning over Rory's stomach to watch. "Okay, here comes the head and shoulder. Oh, my god! Rory, how are you doing this?"
"Dean, not helping!" Rory said, sounding agitated.
"Okay," Dean said, going back to her side. "Keep pushing the baby's halfway out."
"Okay, she's here!" Dr. Weinstein said. "It's a girl!"
Rory let out a huge sigh and flopped back against the pillows as the baby girl was taken away to be cleaned. Dean ran his thumb over her knuckles.
"It's all over," Dean said.
Rory looked at Dean and smiled.
"And you don't have to do this again for another two years," Dean joked.
Rory playfully smacked Dean on the arm. After a few hours, Rory held the baby as Dean sat on the bed with them.
"Dean, you know we have to call her Lorelai," Rory said.
"And her nickname is," Dean said.
"I don't know," Rory said.
"I was thinking Lora?"
"Have you given this a lot of thought?"
"I actually was thinking about it since you were pregnant with Ross."
Rory smiled and gave him a quick kiss.
"Rory, I have a question," Dean said. "How does Rory come from-"
"I don't know," Rory cut him off.
The door opened and Luke, Lorelai, and Ross came in.
"Mama! Daddy!" He cried, jumping on the bed.
"Hey, sweetie," Rory said, turning Lora towards him. "I want to introduce you to someone. This is your little sister Lora."
"Hi, Lowa," Ross said.
"Lora?" Lorelai asked.
"It's short for Lorelai," Dean said.
Lorelai smiled. "The Lorelai dynasty will go on forever," Lorelai declared.
To Be Continued............
A/N: I know I repeated the same scene over and over again, but I wanted to show both births. I'm trying to make it funny not dramatic. Now I'm jumping fourteen years in advance so, Ross will be sixteen and Lora will be fourteen. Chapter 2 is coming soon.

"Have you given this a lot of thought?"
"I actually was thinking about it since you were pregnant with Ross."
Rory smiled and gave him a quick kiss.
"Rory, I have a question," Dean said. "How does Rory come from-"
"I don't know," Rory cut him off.
The door opened and Luke, Lorelai, and Ross came in.
"Mama! Daddy!" He cried, jumping on the bed.
"Hey, sweetie," Rory said, turning Lora towards him. "I want to introduce you to someone. This is your little sister Lora."
"Hi, Lowa," Ross said.
"Lora?" Lorelai asked.
"It's short for Lorelai," Dean said.
Lorelai smiled. "The Lorelai dynasty will go on forever," Lorelai declared.
To Be Continued............
A/N: I know I repeated the same scene over and over again, but I wanted to show both births. I'm trying to make it funny not dramatic. Now I'm jumping fourteen years in advance so, Ross will be sixteen and Lora will be fourteen. Chapter 2 is coming soon.
