They pulled up to the house and Lorelai was sleeping so Luke carried her inside to their bed. She woke up to find him staring at her.

"What?"

"You're pretty."

"Thank you."

"I've been thinking, and to prevent this from happening again, I think you should go on bed rest."

"NO LUCAS!"

"Come on Lorelai. Please?"

"NO!"

"Please?" Luke said with the puppy dog face.

"Fine, but only at Luke's. I'll stay in Laci's apartment while you're at work, but once we get home I'm off bed rest. Ok?"
"Deal. Wait, you're going to be home a majority of the day. That means you'll be up most of the day."

"Too late. You agreed!"

"Whatever. I have to go tell Cesar that I won't be in tonight."

"He already knows."

"No he doesn't."

"Ok. I'll be here with Rory. Hey can you pick up a movie for us to watch. Get a good one!"

"Ok. Bye."

Luke got into his truck and drove to Harvard to see Emily. He had no idea what he was going to say but he was sure that once he saw her face he would loose control and the words would just come flying out. Once he got there he opened his door and rang the doorbell.

"Luke, what brings you here?"

"Who do you think you are?" Luke said getting mad and letting him into the house.

"What are you talking about?

"Don't play dumb Emily."

"Ok. So why are you here?"

"I want you to stay away from Lorelai. If you go within 100 feet of her I will hurt you." Luke said turning red.

"LUKE HOW DARE YOU TALK TO ME ABOUT MY DAUGHTER THAT WAY!"

"YOU ARE TO STAY AWAY FROM HER!" Luke shouted.

"You're yelling at me because of something Lorelai did?"

"NO, I'M YELLING AT YOU BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU DID!"

"Oh don't give me that Luke. If you tried for four years to get your daughter to like you, and you finally thought she did, and then you found out that she was six months pregnant and she didn't want to tell you, you would be mad too!"

"YOU REALLY ARE STUPID AREN'T YOU? DO YOU ACTUALLY THINK THAT I'M UPSET AT THE FACT THAT YOU'RE MAD AT HER? I'M MAD BECAUSE YOU'RE SO CONCEITED THAT YOU WERE WILLING TO LET YOUR DAUGHTER AND YOUR GRANDAUGHTER DIE JUST SO YOU COULD BE RIGHT!"

"What? She wasn't in pain. If she was you wouldn't be here right now because a good boyfriend would be home with her. You're nothing but a stupid diner boy who took my daughter away from me!"

"I HATE YOU EMILY! AND IF YOU GO ANYWHERE NEAR LORELAI I WILL, I REPEAT I WILL, GET BACK AT YOU! AND IF YOU DO ANYTHING TO OUR BABY YOU WILL BE….YOU KNOW WHAT? YOU'RE NOT WORTH THIS. I'M GOING HOME TO SEE HOW LORELAI'S DOING. STAY AWAY FROM HER OR I SWEAR EMILY… AND YOU KNOW WHAT? I DIDN'T TAKE LORELAI AWAY FROM YOU. YOU TOOK HER AWAY FROM YOU YOURSELF!"

Luke left and got into his truck. He felt relieved to finally get that out. He wanted to yell at Emily off from the second he met Lorelai. He just couldn't believe how stupid Emily could be, even Kirk wasn't that stupid! He arrived home without the movie, but he didn't realize that he forgot it. Emily had him in a really bad mood and he was hoping that he could avoid talking to the girls. He went inside to find Lorelai asleep on the couch and Rory watching TV.

"Hey Luke! Where'd you go?"

"I had to take care of a few things. How long has she been sleeping?"

"About a hour ago. What's wrong Luke?"

"Nothing Rory. I'm going to go to sleep. Do you think she'd wake up if I carried her up?"

"Yeah probably."

"Ok, goodnight Rory."

"Night Luke. You really don't want to tell me?"

"No."

Luke went upstairs and Rory decided to call Emily and give her a piece of her mind. She turned off the TV, covered Lorelai with a blanket, and then she got the phone and went into her room.

"Hello." Answered an almost sleeping Emily.

"Hi grandma."

"Now what a pleasant surprise to hear from my favorite granddaughter."

"Not really grandma. After this conversation I won't be your favorite granddaughter anymore."

"What are you talking about? Did your mother tell you that twisted story too?"

"Yes except it wasn't twisted. It was the truth. Why would you do that grandma?"

"Rory I….I, she didn't tell me for god's sake!"

"She was in the hospital for like 3 hours today because of you!"

"She was not! Don't play games with me Rory!"

"I'm not grandma! Why wouldn't you help her? She was in pain."

"I guess he got to you too!"

"Who?"

"Luke. That diner boy with the backwards baseball cap."

"Huh? He didn't get to me. You got to me. You got to me when I saw Luke carrying my pregnant mom out to the car holding her side!"

"You have become just like him! He came and yelled at me too! I didn't do anything wrong, because if your mother was actually in pain she wouldn't be home right now, she'd be in the hospital."

"Wait Luke came to see you? He's like deathly scared of you."

"Well he did. You know what I'm going to go back to sleep its 9:30 Rory you should know better then to call someone this late."

Rory hung up the phone and went upstairs to see Luke. She knew he wouldn't be sleeping yet, and he was probably thinking about what he had done earlier. He was lying in bed crying about how in one day everything had turned upside down.

"Hey Luke."

"Rory come on I told you I would be sleeping."

"That was really sweet Luke."

"What was?"

"You yelling at grandma."

"Rory I didn't yell. Please let me go back to sleep." Luke said still hiding his face.

"Luke I know you went over there today. Luke! Are you ok?"

"I'm fine Rory just leave me alone ok? Please?"

"Ok." She went over to him and gave him a hug and she kissed his baseball capless head.

"Hey Rory?" Luke said as he lifted his head.

"Luke?" Rory answered as she saw his red face.

"Don't tell you mom about any of this. I don't want to upset her any more then she already is."

"Sure Luke. Hey everything's going to be ok."

"I know it's just that I keep thinking about how it could have been ten times worse then it was. Like I keep thinking that your mom and the baby could have really been in trouble, you know?"

"Yeah I know, but they're fine. Get your sleep Luke. Everything will be better in the morning."

"Thanks Rory."

Rory headed downstairs to find Lorelai stretching her arms as she yawned.

"Hey babe."

"Hey mom. Nice sleep?"

"Yeah. Where's my baby?"

"He's upstairs sleeping."

"Ok. I'm going to go join him. See you in the morning Rory."

"Hey mom?" Rory said trying to get her mom to stay downstairs. But she quickly realized that as much as Luke didn't want Lorelai to see him cry, it would be better if she did.

"Yeah hon?"

"Never mind."

They both went to their rooms and got in bed. Lorelai kissed Luke and shook him to wake him up. He wouldn't budge, but she knew that he really was awake so she kept shaking him.

"Yes Lorelai?"

"Gee sorry. I just wanted to talk to you."

"Talk about what?" Luke said annoyed.

"About what happened."

"What is there to talk about Lorelai?"

"Luke! Don't be like this! Are you mad at me?"

"No."

"Then can't we talk? I mean I'm really sorry. I know I messed up. I know I risked the safety of the baby and I'm sorry for that."

"What? It's not your fault. Do you seriously believe that you're the reason for this?'

"No. I just thought you did, and I figured that was the best way to tell if you really did."

"Well I don't and I would never think that. I know it's not your fault, and I know that it's Emily's fault. I don't want you seeing her Lorelai! I don't want you anywhere near her!"

"I kind of have to be Luke. I mean with Friday night dinners and all."

"You're not seriously thinking of going back to them are you?"

"Yes Luke! I can't let her win. She wants me to not go to dinners, and I have to go! I can't let her think that she won. They only way I won't go is if she cancels, and she won't do that."

"Lorelai. Please don't go! I don't want anything to happen to you or the baby."

"Nothing will happen to me Luke. It's going to be ok. I promise!"

"Ok. Can we go to sleep now?" Luke said as he replayed that day over and over again in his head. And every time it did replay tears came to eyes at the thought of losing Lorelai or the baby.

"Sure. Hey are you ok?"

"Yeah I'm fine Lorelai. Good night."

"Goodnight. Hey give me a kiss first."

"Lorelai, I'm half asleep. I can't give you kiss."

"Please?" Lorelai said with her innocent voice.

"Ok" He said as he turned his head and kissed her. As soon as he was done he quickly turned it in the other direction and placed it on the pillow.

"Are you crying Luke?"

"No."

"Luke?"

"I'm fine Lorelai."

"Don't lie. What's wrong?"

"Nothing, goodnight!"

Lorelai got up and went over to Luke's side of the bed and squatted in front of him.

"Luke it's ok to cry."

"It's just that I can't lose you or the baby. I need you and I need you to stay away from her."

"Who?"

"Emily."

"I keep thinking about what she could've done to you and Laci, and what would have happened if it wasn't Braxton Hicks."

"Luke we're fine. You don't have to worry. It's over with. All that matters is that we're okay."

"I know." He said as he kissed Lorelai and pulled her into bed. "Goodnight babies."

"Huh?" Lorelai asked.

"You and Laci are my babies, and I said goodnight."

"Well goodnight to you too daddy." She said as she snuggled up to him and closed her eyes.
