Authors Note:
Dear Reviewers Please be nice I appreciate you comments but I can only do so much. Please don't review if you're going to be harsh. I enjoy writing but I'm only 13 I always have homework and I write when I can. I try really hard but please be patient. I don't want to use huge words because to me it can become boring and for some people they can't understand 50 letter words but I promise I will use as much description and as big as words as I can think of but please be understanding, and as for the story skipping a chunk of time that's only because the most interesting part is after the baby is born. Please just think about what you write in your review before you write it, I mean would you want reviews so harsh? Please be patient and I will give it my all but you have to think about all of the nice things you can say instead. I understand that one has to have ridicule but if every review is ridicule you tend to become discouraged.
July 5th 7 A.M.
"Hey mom what are you doing up so early?"
"I can't sleep."
"Why?"
"I can't keep from puking long enough to sleep."
"Oh."
"Do you want me to head to the drugstore?"
"For what?"
"You know what."
"Rory, I'm fine I just need some Pepto-Bismol. Look Rory I'm not pregnant I just ate something that didn't agree with me."
"Mom in the past week what have you eaten that is unusual for you?"
"I don't know… Oh I had week old pizza."
"Eww but what's so unusual with that? I mean you do that on a regular basis."
"Rory I'm not pregnant."
"Mom at least take a test it will put me at ease."
"Fine I'll take one."
"Are you crazy do you want the whole town to know?"
"No."
"Then let me buy it I mean I'm already pregnant."
"Yeah about that, how did that turn out yesterday?"
"Are you kidding it took all of 2 ½ minutes to spread over all of Stars Hollow I timed it. It's a really good thing I've only gained 27 pounds."
"Ok but what are you going to say when someone asks you what you're doing I mean its obvious you already know you're pregnant."
"So I'll say I'm buying it for my friend Jane at Yale who's too embarrassed to buy one herself."
"Ok. Fine. But Rory I'm going to be I'm a couple years away from 40 I'm too old to have a baby."
"Whatever."
30 minutes later Rory bought every Pregnancy test in Stars Hollow. When she arrived home her mother asked:
"Rory I didn't know you needed a paper bag that big for 1 pregnancy test."
"You don't. However you're Lorelai Gilmore you'll have to take more than one to prove to yourself you really are pregnant."
"Right. So how many did you buy?"
"One of every kind."
"How many?"
"12."
"How much did that cost?"
"Like $80."
"Ok."
"So go to the bathroom pee on every stick."
"Rory I don't have that much pee in me."
"Well drink a big glass of water."
"No never mind I can I have to pee really bad I've been holding it."
"Good go."
½ an hour later Rory goes into see what's taking so long. She goes in the bathroom where her mother is sitting on the floor with her eyes closed surrounded by pregnancy tests.
"Mom why are your eyes closed?"
"I can't look. Will you tell me?"
"How can you tell I mean the colors mean something different for most of the tests."
"The sticks are sitting on the boxes."
"Ok but please open your eyes."
"Ok. Read them so I can weep."
"Alright."
"The first one is a digital read out."
"What does it say?"
"Pregnant."
"Ok that's only 1 out of 12."
"Ok # 2,3 and 4. Are all pink dots which means positive for all 3 of them."
"Ok. That's 4 out of 12."
"5 and 6 are blue dots which also means the same."
"Rory I really don't like this."
"7 and 8 are plus signs which mean positive."
"9, and 10 are 2 pink lines which means they're positive."
"11 has one pink line which means the same as all of the rest."
"And the 12th one?"
"12 has a double blue line which means that's the 12th test that says you're pregnant."
"Rory please tell me I am dreaming."
"Ok. But it's not true."
"Rory how do I tell Luke I'm having his baby?"
"Leave a pregnancy test in his bathroom?"
"Rory come on."
"Just be honest."
"Rory I don't know how to."
"Mom you'll figure it out. If I can figure out a way to tell grandma you can defiantly find a way to tell Luke."
"You're right now will you change the subject?"
"Sure. Mom what's it like?"
"What like?"
"Having a baby?"
"What do you mean? Emotionally or Physically."
"Physically."
"Well it is somewhat like making a water melon go through a nostril."
"It hurts that bad?"
"Well yeah."
"Now tell me what it was like when you first saw me… emotionally."
"I can't really describe it. I mean I was happy but oh so scared. I was 16 and I had to raise a baby."
"Ok. Mom what do I tell people?"
"You ought to tell them the truth but if you can't at first just avoid the question."
"I don't know how to."
"Just change the topic."
"Ok." At Emily and Richard's Rory's water breaks and Emily and Lorelai take her to the hospital. Within minutes they have arrive at the hospital.
