PART 13
As the days went by, Rory started showing, she was spending most of her days in her apartment, writing, Luke would stop by around lunch time to bring her some food and Lorelai spent her evenings with her when she wasn't with David.
Lorelai and David agreed to take it slow, very slow, they would talk on the phone everyday but saw each other ones or twice a week, I guess you could say they were dating.
It was Friday afternoon when Rory decided to face stars hollow and walk to Luke's, she grew a round little stomach and you could tell by looking that she was pregnant.
When she reached the town square, she spotted Miss Patty, she said to herself 'oh what the hack' and walked in her direction
"Rory, darling, I heard the rumors but I wasn't sure whether to believe it or not, and we never see you around town anymore not even at the town meetings, congratulation sweetheart..."
"Thank you Miss Patty"
"So need I ask who the father is or I should just guess its Luke?"
"Yes, it's Luke"
"This is just wonderful, Rory, is there going to be a wedding?"
"Yes, a small one, but a wedding"
"That's lovely, and your mother, how is she taking it?"
"She's fine patty, she's happy about becoming a grandma..."
"You know even when the broke up we always thought they would end up together, I guess we were wrong..."
"Yeah, I guess"
"Well I'm very happy for you two"
"Thanks, I gotta go, bye patty"
"Bye dear" she said dialing her cell phone
She walked into Luke's moments later and sat by the window, waiting for him to finish his round
"Hey you, what are you doing here?"
"Just needed to get out, couldn't concentrate..."
"something wrong?"
"Oh, no, nothing, I just ran into Miss Patty on the way here"
"Did she give you a hard time?"
"No, actually she was very nice"
"She's always nice but she's nosy which is not so nice..."
"Yeah, nosy... hey, you're not coming to dinner tonight right?"
"No, why?"
"Just checking..."
"So what can I get you?"
"A burger and fries and pie with ice cream and a kiss but I know I can have that so I'll just wait for a special delivery tonight when I get home..." she smiled
"Coming right up"
"Rory sugar... I just heard congratulation..."
"Thanks Babette..."
"So, your mother didn't say anything, how is she taking it"
"She's fine Babette, very happy"
"So, when is the wedding?"
"Next month, the 12th"
"I gotta tell you, this is very surprising... no one could've guessed that our little Rory was gonna marry Luke... not in a million years..."
"Well that's life for you..."
"But I'm happy for you kid... just make sure I get an invitation"
"Of course Babette..."
"Babette" she heard a voice behind her
"Hi'ya Luke... I just came to congratulate the two of you..."
"Thanks"
"You be good to her now you hear..."
"I hear..."
"She's our little baby"
"I know Babette, don't worry" he put her plate on the table and saw her smiling
"Bye now"
"Bye Babette" the said together
"Our little baby?" he looked at her seriously
"What can I say..." she smiled wickedly
"Eat your food and stop smiling, next thing I know I'll start getting death threats in the mail that says don't hurt our little baby or else..."
She smiled and patty walked in
"Oh, Luke, here you are"
"What patty?"
"Oh, nothing, just wanted to make sure you know who you're marring..."
"I know who I'm marring patty"
"Just be good to her, she's stars hollows little sweetheart"
"Oh, jeez..."
"The mother and the daughter... are you girls lucky..."
"Patty...!"
"Bye now..."
Rory was still smiling when he looked at her
"Stop smiling, this isn't funny, do they know you're not a little baby anymore?"
"Ahh, no...?"
"What next, Reverend Skinner gives me a marital talk...?"
"That would be funny to watch..."
"Shut up..."
"Getting grumpy..."
"Yeah well, maybe you should know who you're marring..."
"I know who I'm marring..."
"Eat" he said and went back to work
When she finished her lunch she left some money on the table, she didn't need too but she did, and left to her mothers' house to go to dinner at her grandparents
It was around ten when she came home to find him sleeping on the couch, she turned the TV off and went to change, she sat next to him a few minutes later and rubbed his arm gently
"Hey you"
"Hey" he said in a sleepy voice
"You wanna come to bed?"
"no, maybe later" he reached for her hand and she snuggled close to him resting her head on his chest, he ran his fingers through her hair slowly and caressed her arm while placing a soft kiss on her hair smelling it
"How was dinner?"
"Fine, mom had an argument with grandpa about whether or not bush should run for presidency again..."
"Since when does she care about politics...?"
"She doesn't..."
"I bet it was funny..."
"It was, he was so serious and he didn't even see she was messing with him..."
"Did she tell you how things are going with David?"
"Its going slow... but she's optimistic..."
"That's good"
"I missed you tonight at dinner"
"Me to..."
"Anything interesting happened after I left?"
"Kirk asking who's going to be my best man..."
"Oh my god, poor you... did he offer himself?"
"Would you believe me if I said no?"
"No way..."
"Yeah... and he was so serious..."
"So what did you say?"
"That I was still thinking and that I'd let him know..."
"Did you decide yet?"
"I thought that maybe I'd ask your grandfather..."
"Really?" she said rising to meet his eyes
"Yeah, I mean I don't have a best friend or a dad, Richard was always nice to me... what do you think?"
"I think he would love that"
"Yeah?"
"yes of course..."
"So, Babette so you leaving the diner today..."
"So...?"
"So she came to talk to me alone..."
"Really?"
"Yes. She wanted to make sure I know how they all love you and it would be really bad if I break your heart..."
"Sorry"
"Stars hollows little baby..." he said mocking her
"Don't mock... it's not my fault they love me, I'm cute and irresistible..."
"And how come they think I'd break your heart?"
"Probably because they all think you broke moms heart..."
"You mean no one knows why we broke up...?"
"even I found out you proposed to her only 4 months ago, she didn't tell any one, she always said that it didn't work out and that you were too different..."
"So now the town thinks I'm gonna break your heart..."
"But I know you won't so stop worrying, since when do you care what people think..."
"I don't..."
"Good"
she leaned in to kiss him and let her fingers travel his chest, he pulled her close and deepened the kiss while slipping his fingers under her shirt, she moaned in pleasure against his lips and pushed him to lay on the couch, she slowly pulled his shirt and kissed it going up to his chest, he took it off and she continued kissing and caressing his stomach and chest, she smiled at him when she met his eyes and kissed him harder this time with more aggressiveness
"What's with you?" he asked smiling
"What do you mean?"
"What's with the aggressiveness?"
"Oh, sorry..."
"It's ok..."
"So why are you complaining?"
"Sorry, carry on..." he didn't want to mess with her, not when she was beginning to be moody
She went to his neck and sucked it gently, he moaned to that feel and she bit him
"Aww"
"Sorry"
"Sorry? That's all you have to say, sorry?"
"Well I'm not sorry, I like biting you..."
"really?"
"Don't even think about it, you... I know that look..."
"Come here..." he grabbed her and lifted her to carry her to the bed
"Luke... please don't, I'm sorry..." she said laughing
"sorry, ha..." he placed her on the bed and climbed on top of her keeping himself on his arms so he wouldn't crash her
"I love you"
"That's not going to work..."
"But I do... just thought you should know"
"Sorry, not gonna work"
"Please don't tickle me... please..."
"Do you promise not to bite me again?"
"Yes..."
"Liar..."
"I promise..."
"ok" he leaned in to kiss her letting his tongue teas her lip, she invited him in and they deepened the kiss allowing their passion guide them, he broke from her lips and went down to her neck enjoying the sounds she made when he sent his hand to her breast slowly massaging them, suddenly her cell phone rang
"Oh crap" she said and he let her get up and answer it
"Halo"
"Hi Rory, its jack"
"Jack..." Luke's face turned when he heard jacks name
"How are you?"
"Great how are you?"
"Fine... actually I heard you went back to stars hollow"
"Yes I did"
"I missed you"
"Jack don't"
"Why not Rory... I know it didn't work out and I was an idiot when I let you leave, I'm sorry, I really missed you..."
"I'm sorry jack but you're late..."
"What?"
"Yes you're late, I'm engaged..."
"To who?"
"You don't know him, he's from here"
"How can you be engaged... we only broke up 7 months ego"
"So...?"
"How can you be engaged so soon?"
"I am..."
"Please don't do this Rory... we were great together..."
"Yeah until you decided it was too serious for you and took off"
"I love you Rory, I never stopped..."
"I'm sorry jack"
"I'm coming to see you tomorrow..."
"No you're not..."
"You can't stop me... I'll see you tomorrow..."
"Jack, stop it, listen to me, there's nothing you can do, I'm happy, I'm getting married, you're late, face it... please accept it and don't come here..."
"Rory please, I need to see you"
"What for?"
"I know you love me..."
"I don't"
"How can you forget me so fast?"
"Jack, I'm hanging up now... don't call me again..."
"Rory"
"Jack, if you care about me please respect my wishes and don't call me..."
"Fine"
"Bye jack"
"Bye" she hung up and turned to Luke who wasn't there, she found him sitting on the couch
"Hey..."
"Hey"
"Why did you go?"
"I Thought I'd give you some privacy..."
"Thanks"
"Is everything alright?"
"Yeah, why wouldn't it be?"
"I don't know"
"I'm fine"
"Ok"
"So where were we?" she leaned in but he pulled back after a short kiss
"I'm tired, I'm going to bed"
"Sure" she said confused
"Are you coming?"
"In a minute"
"Ok"
after a few minutes she slipped under the covers with her back to him, she told him how hurt she was when jack left her, he knew jack meant a lot to her, after all they lived together for a year, 'why didn't I just tell him what we talked about...' she thought 'its not like I love jack, great Rory, now he thinks you were in touch with jack all this time, very smart Rory' she said to herself when suddenly she felt Luke's arm around her from behind
"Hey you" he said and kissed her shoulder
"I thought you were asleep"
"I wasn't"
"I didn't hear from him since we broke up"
"I know"
"I don't care about him"
"I know, I didn't mean to act like a jerk before"
"I know"
"I love you" he kissed her neck
"I love you to"
"I know"
"Is there anything you don't know?"
"I don't know" she crossed her fingers with his and kissed the back of his hand
"I love you"
He pulled her closer and said "I love you both" gently caressing her stomach
What next? Should jack come and cause problems?
Tell me what you think.
Thanks for you reviews.
Till next time.
