A/N: Sorry about the confusion with the chapters. I hope you enjoy this Chapter.

REVIEWS WOULD BE GREAT THANKS.

Rory walked into the Diner expecting to see Luke she instead saw Jess.

"Hey Jess, where's Luke?" Rory asked sitting down.

"He had something to do so he left me in charge"

"Ok fair enough"

"Coffee" Jess said getting the coffee pot and offering it to Rory.

"Thanks"

"So how are we today?"

"We are good" Rory said taking a sip of coffee.

"Well I'm glad "

"So am I"

"How about you"

"I'm good, happy to be out of the house"

"Ah, Paris' hormones to much for you"

"Yep, its times like this I wish I wasn't a free lance Journalist"

"Oh that's cruel" Rory laughed.

"So I here you and Paris are catching up today"

"Yes we are, I'm actually going there after here, just stopped in for a coffee"

"That's good, you will need the coffee" Jess smiled cheekily.

"You're cruel, I might just tell Paris"

"You wouldn't"

"No I wouldn't, but I might"

"Funny Gilmore" Jess said using his nickname for her.

"So how is everything with Tristan and the girls?"

"Rocky at best, although I'm having dinner with them on Friday so that should be interesting"

"Good for you, I hope everything works out"

"So do I" Rory said hopefully.

"Well I better be off, you know how Paris likes punctuality"

"True, well good luck" Jess said smirking.

"Bye" Rory said shaking her head at jess while laughing.

A little while Later, Rory knocked on Jess and Paris' door.

"Coming I'm coming hold on" Rory heard Paris shout out.

"Hi Paris"

"Hey Rory, Wow come on in"

"Thanks"

"It's good to see you" Paris said hugging Rory as best she could.

"It's good to see you too, it's been to long"

"It has, you look great"

"Thanks Paris so do you, you look great congratulations"

"Thanks" Paris said stroking her stomach.

"So how you been?" Rory asked

"Good, though bored considering I'm know on Maternity leave, I'm at the stage were I want this pregnancy to be over with"

"Oh yeah I know the feeling, I was like that when I was pregnant with Ami"

"When are you due?"

"September"

"Ah, Spring baby"

"Yep"

"So have you seen Tristan and the girls yet?"

"Seen Tristan actually had coffee with him but really haven't seen the girls"

"Oh, ok"

"Yeah"

"So how long have you been back?"

"3 weeks"

"Tristan hasn't let you see the girls?"

"Kind of it's a long story, but were having dinner on Friday "

"Well that's good news"

"It is"

"Rory can I ask why you left all those years ago"

"I was depressed; I had Post-Natal Depression although I didn't know it at the time"

"Oh good, I'm sorry"

"No It's alright I'm better and basically recovered so I thought this would be the best time to see my girls"

"That's good"

"Paris, you work with Tristan, How was he after I left"

"Rory he was distraught at first, he was in denial always waiting for you he was then depressed and angry. He would never turn up at work Rory he was a mess, but he then realised he had three beautiful girls to look after and he put all of his time into raising them. He had it tough raising the twins "

"I know, I heard"

"He has done a wonderful job he is a wonderful dad," Paris said.

"He is isn't he" Rory smiled.

"So Paris ready for another one"

"Yep, this will be our fourth kid and third girl" Paris said smiling and stroking her lage stomach.

"Wow you had another girl"

"Yes, about nine months after you left, Mia she is nearly 5"

"Wow big age gap between the twins and Mia"

"I know, but Jules is good with Mia they get along really well"

"That's good"

"How are the Twins, I bet Harley doesn't like the fact he is the only male"

"There good yeah, Harley and Jess pretend to have a hard time with us girls but its not true, Jess loves his girls to death and Harley is very protective and loves them but will never admit it" Paris smiled.

"Of course, so Jess tells me you are having a hard time with their University placements"

"Don't get me started, Jules is fine she is just like me in the brains and discipline department so she does want to go to Uni she has applied to Yale, Harvard and Princeton but she does have Jess' wild streak. Harley is a different story completely he is like his father to a tee. He has decided he doesn't need Uni he wants to be a mechanic, god that boy is going to be the death of me I swear"

"Oh no, he hasn't even applied to one Uni or a TAFE"

"Nope, he thinks he knows enough about cars to just go out in the workforce and get a job"

"God what does Jess have to say about this"

"Jess well lets see, Harley knows Jess didn't go to Uni and so thinks he can do the same and Jess is happy with that"

"Serious, I thought Jess would be rooting for him to go to Uni"

"Nope, see his theory is for Harley to experience the real world and realise he needs to go to Uni to get a decent job, But knowing Harley that isn't going to happen because he is stubborn like his father"

"Jess has a good point but that could also backfire badly"

"Exactly, it will work out at least I hope it will"

"Mum I'm home" Jules said walking in with her sister asleep on her shoulder.

"What you both doing home its only 2 o clock you don't finish till 3:30"

"I had a double spare so I decided to come home and see how you were and dad asked me to pick up Mia, who is asleep"

"Oh thanks I'm fine, put her in her room so she can sleep"

Ok mum, you need anything while I'm up"

"No I'm fine"

"Ok"

"Sorry about that"

"Don't worry; Jules really has grown into a lovely young women"

"She has hasn't she"

"Mia is gorgeous; she is a mix of you and Jess"

"Yeah, she is, she is a daddy's girl"

"Mum, dad wants to know what you want for dinner" Jules shouted from the kitchen.

"Anything I'm fine"

"Ok, I'll ring and tell him"

"Jules come in here I want you to meet someone"

"Ok"

"Jules, I'm not sure if you remember Rory"

"I do vaguely, Your Andie, Annie and Ami's mum right"

"Yep, you have grown since the last time I saw you"

"Thanks, it was nice to see you again"

"You too"

"Mum considering I'm not grounded anymore and Dan is in town, I was wondering if I could go see him he is staying at the Dragonfly"

"Alright, Behave and I would prefer it if you didn't meet him at the Dragonfly"
"Mum" Jules said annoyed.

"Jules, you really don't have to see him"

"Ok mum, I'll meet him at the Gazebo"

"Good Girl, be back for dinner which is at 7 o clock"

"Ok mum"

"Jules hold up shouldn't you have homework considering it's your last year"

"Only a little bit, I did most of it before at school I'll do the rest when I get back ok"

"Fine ok"

"Bye"

"Bye Jules, Behave"

"Always" Jules said walking out the door.

"I get the feeling you don't like the Boyfriend"

"Um not like just don't trust, one year older and goes to Yale"

"Oh I see the older Uni guy I see, I understand"

"Exactly"

"Why was she grounded?"

"As I said she has Jess' wild streak, decided to get drunk and flash a football team"

"Wow ok that's wild"

"Yep, we weren't happy"

"I can imagine, how long was she grounded"

"3 weeks"

"Fair"

"Thanks"

"Waah, Mummy" Mia cried from her room.

"Excuse me"

"Sure, do you need help?"

"Actually thanks"

"Hey babe, shh it's alright"

"Mama, botty" Mia said lying her head on Paris' shoulder.

"Ok, I'll get you botty, How about you go to Rory she is mummy's friend"

"But I want you" Mia said grabbing on to Paris.

"I know sweetheart but mummy can't make your bottle and carry you, please for me"

"Alright"

"Ok Mia, meet Rory"

"Hi Worwy"

"Hey Mia, how are you"

"Good"

"That's good"

"Do you have any babies like mummy?"

"I do actually, but they aren't really babies anymore"

"Really"

"Yeah they're all grown up"

"I wanna grow up"

"No you don't, being small is the best because you can get your own way if you do it properly and you can have fun all the time and be mummy's baby all the time"

"Yeah really"

"Really"

"Well I wanna be small forever"

"That's the spirit"

"Here you go babe"

"Tank you"

"So how was Kinder?"

"It was fun I did a dwawing and we played games"

"Yeah so you enjoyed yourself"

"Yep lots and lots"

"That's my girl"

Half an hour later

"Mum"

"In here"

"Hey"

"Hi"

"You have a spare to"

"Yeah how did you know?"

"Because your sister came home early as well"

"I thought that was her in the Gazebo sucking face with Dan" Harley said with a grin on his face.

"Harley" Paris scolded.

"What it's true, they were going at it like dogs"

"Go ring you father and see if he needs help at the Diner"

"What"

"Now"

"No"

"Then watch your mouth ok"

"Fine is there any food in the Kitchen"

"Of course"

"I'm starving"

"When are you not?"

"Funny mum"

"I'm such a comedian"

"Harley when you're done in here come out here, I want you to meet someone"

"Ok I'll be right out"

"Ok, so what's going on" Harley said walking out with a sandwich in his hands.

"Harley, say hello to Rory, she's an old friend"

"Hi, you're the twins mum aren't you" Harley asked

"Yes Annie, Andie and Ami are my daughters"

"There good kids"

"Thankyou"

"Ah yeah, mum I'm going out"

"What, fine whatever"

"I get the feeling he doesn't like me"

"Don't worry about him, as I said he is like Jess so it is in his nature to not like anyone or anything"

"Thanks Paris" Rory said smiling.

"Don't mention it"

"Ror, you want to stay for Dinner, I'm sure Jess would love to catch up with you"

"Thanks that would be great"

"Mia honey who you doing down there"

"Playing mummy"

"I see that sweetheart"

Rory looked on and a tear rolled down her face.

"Rory honey what's a matter"

"You're great with the kids"

"Aww babe come here" Paris said comforting Rory.

"I just wish I could've been there for Ami watch her growing up, she doesn't even recognise me I'm such a bad mother how could I just leave them"

"Oh Hon it's not your fault you couldn't help it, you had depression, Aww Rory come here it's alright"

"Paris" Jess called out as he walked in.

"Hey, Everything alright" Jess stopped as he saw Rory crying in Paris' arms.

"Ah Hi Jess" Paris said a little taken back.

"Everything alright" Jess asked again.

"Yeah were fine aren't we Ror" Paris said looking at Rory.

"Yeah were fine" Rory looked up at Jess as she wiped away her tears.

"You sure" Jess asked as he wasn't so sure.

"Completely" Paris and Rory said.

"Ok"

"Daddy" Mia squealed noticing her father and running to him.

"Hi baby girl, what's up?" Jess said picking her up.

"The sky" Mia said cheekily.

"Hehe you're so funny, how about you come and help me with dinner and we leave mummy alone alright" Jess said tickling her.

"YAY cooking"

"Come on kiddo lets go" Jess said carrying her into the Kitchen.

Just as Jess was walking out Paris mouthed a thankyou and Jess just nodded and continued to tickle Mia.

"Rory are you ok" Paris said looking at Rory.

"Yeah, I no I don't know anymore" Rory said sadly as she was confused.

"Ror, have you seen or talked to anyone since you've been here"

"No"

"You taking medication"

"I stopped a little while ago, didn't need it anymore"

"Sweetie I think you need to talk to someone and maybe think about going back on Anti-Depressants"

"I'm fine Paris, I'm just overwhelmed" Rory assured her.

"Rory I'm not speaking to you as a friend I'm speaking to you as a Doctor, you need to speak to someone even if its to talk but honey you cant keep it all inside of you because your going to burst and you'll be worse off, this cant be easy and with your previous history I think you should consider Anti-Depressants until this gets a little better with you Tristan and the kids ok" Paris said.

"Thanks Paris I'll do that"

"That's my girl, if you need any help I'm right here ready to help and so is Jess were free and ready to help at anytime" Paris assured her and rubbed her back comforting her.

"Paris you are the greatest"

"I know" Paris said smiling.

"Know how about we go rescue Mia for Jess hmm"

"Ok"

"So you good"

"I'm good"

"Good" Paris said giving her a hug.
