PART 10
"Hey honey" I said sitting down beside my beautiful pregnant daughter
"What's up?" Rory asked turning the TV off
"Ok, how are you feeling?"
"Too heavy..."
"Well, little Jane will be out soon and you'll be having sex in no time..."
"Mom!"
"What...?"
"We're so not talking about my sex life"
"Why not? I think it's a little late to try and hide the fact that you're having sex..."
"Daahhh" Rory said pointing to her belly
"Well yeah daahhh..." Lorelai mocked
"At least one of us is having sex..."
"Don't go there"
"What's the big deal... why can't you tell me? I would tell you..."
"I can't Rory... not yet... maybe after the baby comes we'll sit and talk about this..."
"Mom it can't be that bad..."
"Oh... trust me... I outdid my self this time..."
"Sure... you never went this long without telling me... it sounds serious... is it serious? Do you love him?"
"I don't know, it's only been like 4 months"
"Was it after my wedding or before? it has to be after, you were with David at the wedding"
"Yeah, after... but I'm so exhausted... I'm telling you, keeping my relationship with Luke a secret wasn't as hard as this..."
"I still don't get it..."
"You will when I tell you..."
"Tell me now... please? Pretty please?" she pouted
"Honey, I love you, but this pouting... it only works on Luke"
"Well... I tried..."
"I'm going to the bathroom, be right back"
When I came back I found Luke sitting on the couch next to her holding her hand, so what else is new. I stole his cap and he told me that if I don't give it back I will have a stroke.
I didn't understand at first but then Jess walked in.
"Eww" Rory exclaimed
"What is it honey?" I asked and it turns out she had contractions all day but far apart that's why she didn't think this was serious
Luke jumped and told me to pack a bag so I did, only to find them gone and Jess standing in the living room
"Jess..." I said frightened, I needed to be with Rory, I knew Luke was with her but I was still worried
"I know" he answered in his usual calm and walked me to his car
We drove to the hospital and I felt that if I wasn't going to see Rory I would explode, Jess felt it "Hey, relax, she's gonna be fine, Luke is with her"
"I know, I just..."
"I know, its ok, try to relax, we'll be there soon" he said gently caressing my thigh
I put my hand on his, making sure it stays there. I loved it when he touched me, he knew it. When we stopped at a red light he moved his hand to my neck and guided me to his lips.
We kissed deeply, his attempt to calm me, it was working. We didn't notice the light changing until the sound of angry horns.
We found Rory's room and I walked in leaving Jess outside. My beautiful daughter was in pain and there was nothing I could do to make it all better. Sure she was having a baby, and sure I know the pain is part of the experience but still seeing her in pain like this was breaking my heart.
I tried to calm her down and tell her everything will go away the minute she sees little Jane, but Rory was in too much pain to listen, she didn't believe me. I just stood there beside her, praying it will be as short as possible.
When her water broke I went to get the doctor, and asked Jess to get me some coffee. I remember him brushing his hand gently on my arm and I was upset because what if someone saw that. He understood and went to find that coffee.
Luke and Rory were in shock when I actually drank the coffee Jess brought, god this is so funny, I thought to myself when Luke advised me not to drink it. Sure it was funny now but when they find out I'm seeing Jess secretly it won't be so funny, my thoughts just kept coming as I drank it in attempt to calm down and be strong for Rory, and the smile I had was just erased by that last thought of them finding out. Thank god she's having a baby already, I don't think I can keep this hidden much longer.
Rory was exhausted when little Jane was out and in her arms. She smiled "Mom you were so right... it was worth it" she said and asked Luke if he wants to hold her.
Mountain man choked of course, he started babbling "Oh, jeez... snap out of it, here, I'll help you" I said and walked to his side. I picked Jane gently "now give me your hands" I smiled, trying to make him feel better and more comfortable and placed Jane in his arms "now watch out for her head... yeah like that"
It was amazing, seeing this big grouchy man holding a little baby. He was captivated by every little sound she made, I felt it, and I remember thinking that I've never seen him so happy.
Moments later I was a little impatient and asked to hold my new grand-daughter "hey there Jane, I'm your grandma... boy, are you gonna love me... I'm the coolest grandma in the whole world..." I looked up smiling proudly at their mocking faces and added "don't mind them Jane, they are just jealous that I'm cool and they aren't... we're gonna have so much fun you and me..."
Luke stood next to me trying to learn how to do this, I smiled and after a while I turned my back to him and whispered to little Jane "hey kid, I just wanted to say that as soon as your ears can bear it, I'm gonna let you listen to Steven Tyler and all the cool singers with the cool music and its going to be our little secret... so don't tell your daddy here because he's a little weird... ok kid... "
Emily came later and sat with Rory while I talked to Luke outside. When we came back to the room Rory was asleep and so was Jane. Luke sat next to the bad and held his sleeping daughter, I told him I'll be back in the morning and left.
I was so excited in the car and Jess laughed at me "what are you laughing about...?" I asked and he smiled wickedly "don't you think it's funny that I'm dating a grandmother?"
"Hey... I'm a cool young grandma... and the fact that I give you the best sex of your life proves it" I countered
"No arguments there"
"So listen, I thought that now after the baby is already born I could sit down and talk to Rory"
"Seriously?" he asked looking at me
"First, keep your eyes on the road and yes seriously... don't you think its time?"
"I don't know... I mean not that I care what people think but you care"
"Sure I care but how long can we keep this up... I'm tired"
"Yeah, I know what you mean..."
"I can't wait for Rory to come home with Jane"
"Did they really named their baby Jane... jeez... this is too weird"
"It's not weird, I think it's sweet... this is how it all started, when I saw that book in his apartment I knew something big was going to happen..."
"So, are you coming to my place or what?"
"No, I think I'm going to sleep, it was a long night and I gotta go back in the morning"
"Oh, ok"
"Don't worry, it will be over soon"
"Fine... I'm fine"
"So, see you tomorrow?" I asked when he stopped the car outside my apartment
"Yeah, come by the book store"
"I'm just dying to kiss you but I see Babette waiting there so I'm gonna go now"
"Night"
"Night lover boy"
"Call me lover boy again and I'm calling you grandma from now on"
"Noted, sorry, good night"
I talked to Babette and told her about the baby and how beautiful she is and went straight to bed.
The next morning I went to the hospital and found Rory feeding Jane "how's my two beautiful girls" I asked sitting down next to Rory
"We're hungry, Luke went to get me some real food"
"That's good"
"So, do you want to hold her? She's done..."
"Give me this pretty little creature..." I said enthusiastic and gathered her to me "hey you... remember me... what am I saying... she doesn't even remember who you are..."
"Mom..."
"so let me tell you something Jane, you see this amazing woman here that just fed you... that's your mother, and she is going to be the best mother ever... well after me of course... and if she lets you read thick books when you're 8 just say no..."
"Mom..."
"Seriously... you and me kid... we're gonna watch so many movies that you're not even going to have time for books..."
"Mom..."
"See, that's how you're gonna call her when she is annoying... just like I am right now..."
"Oh boy... I'm getting a babysitter..."
"No you're not... I'm gonna do that... I'm gonna be there for her when her smart mother finishes her book... so anyway little Jane, as I was saying, we're ganna watch Casablanca, and breakfast club... and pretty in pink... and I'm not letting you near Harry Potter..." suddenly Jane made a face "what, you wanna watch Harry Potter? No way Miss Danes..."
"Mom... she doesn't understand..."
"Sure she does... its like Mickey in Look Who's Talking"
"That was Bruce Willis mom..."
"So what... you can't prove that she doesn't understand..."
"Fine... keep talking" then, Jane made a weird sound
"Are we grumpy today...? I see that she get her attitude from Luke, isn't that charming..."
"Very funny Lorelai..." Luke said walking into the room
"Oh your back... you better be nice and smiling around her. I don't want her grumpy..."
"Whatever" he answered kissing his wife and put the food in front of her "I got you doughnuts and coffee, regular"
"Thanks honey..." she smiled at him
"Since when do you call him honey and how do you get away with it?" I asked mocking Luke
"Since I'm still under the effect of the Demerol"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever... here, I think she's tired" I said and put Jane in Rory's arms
"Yeah, she is, she just ate... Luke, could you put her in the crib?"
"Sure" he said and picked her up
"I see you're getting the hang of it... good for you... did you change her already? I would love to see that..."
"Mock all you want" he answered "but she is my daughter and I will do everything I need to..."
"Honey..." I mocked him
"Yeah... now you're mocking because you don't have a comeback..."
"What can I say... you know me too well..."
"That I do..."
"So, sweetie, I gotta go to work, and you need to rest because your grandparents are on their way... I'll be back later"
"Ok mom"
"I love you honey" I kissed her and went over to Jane's crib "and I love you so very much" I said to her and left
