Chapter 7
Lorelai and Rory walked into Luke's. Lorelai noticed that everyone's eyes were on her.
Lorelai whispered to Rory, "Hey do I look alright? Do I have toilet paper stuck to my foot? Or a 'Kick me' sign attached to my back? Or food stuck in between my teeth?"
Rory shook her head, "No why?" They sat down at the counter.
"Everyone's looking at me. Not in a good way either." Rory shrugged. Luke came up to them to take their order when Patty came rushing in the diner. A crowd formed around the diner some came in with Patty but most stayed out side.
"Lorelai! Honey! Is it true?" Patty asked eagerly,"
"Patty what's going on? Why is there a mob of people outside?"
"They want to know if it's true."
"Uh I have no idea what you're talking about." Lorelai played dumb.
"Are you pregnant or not?" Patty asked. Lorelai wanted to say 'no' but they'd find out months later that she had been lying.
"Yeah I am," Lorelai whispered. Patty strained to hear what she had said.
"I'm sorry what?"
"Yes I am pregnant." Lorelai said more clearly. Patty quickly exited the premises and told the crowd the news and then re entered the diner.
"So you and Luke huh? The whole town knew it would happen someday" Patty said.
"What?" Luke and Lorelai said at the same time. Lorelai looked really confused.
"Luke is the … father right?"
"No!" Lorelai and Luke said.
"Patty what are you talking about? The father is Christopher." Patty looked at Lorelai making sure that she wasn't lying.
"Oh, oh my. I am so sorry! I thought … oh jeez" Patty ran out of the diner and shouted to everyone that Luke wasn't the father.
"Okay that was awkward." Rory said.
"Yeah… can we just ignore that whole thing? I'm not in the mood to talk about it," Luke and Rory nodded. Just then the door to the diner opened and Luke was shocked.
"So how's it going?"

Lorelai and Rory were sitting on the front steps of their house waiting for Chris. "Wow can you believe that Rachel's back?" Lorelai said.
"Yeah did you see the look on Luke's face?"
"I think it's good,"
"His face?"
"No that Rachel's back."
"Yeah it is good. So is dad getting here soon?" Rory was very eager to see her dad. She missed him a lot. Hopefully what was coming wouldn't mess up Lorelai and Christopher's relationship.
"He should be here any minute now." Just then a Volvo pulled up into their driveway. Lorelai and Rory knew of no one that owned a Volvo. Chris stepped out of the car.
"Dad!" Rory ran up to him and gave him a big hug.
"Hey kiddo I missed you,"
"Missed you too."
"Hey. What happen to you bike?" Lorelai asked.
"Well since I got a job I guess I had to get a car."
"A job? Wow so you live in Boston, have a job, and got a car."
"Yep that's about it. Oh hey Rory I got something for you." Chris went to his trunk.
"The Compact Oxford English Dictionary! Thanks!"
"Your welcome."
"I'm going to look things up right now!" Rory ran back into the house.
"So … we need to talk." Lorelai turned to Chris once Rory was in the house.
"Yes we do."
"Okay um I'll start. Well you already know I'm pregnant. You don't have to play a big fatherly part but since you live so close you're going to have to visit or I'll hunt you down. I'd really like it if you were around more often."
"Lorelai I want to be here with you not just visit. I'm not saying we should get married you made it clear that you didn't last time I was here."
"Chris you have a job you can't just stay here. You just have to visit more often."
"Well then I'll find a new job some where close by."
"Christopher this will be too complicated with you around and us not being married."
"No, Lorelai don't do this. I want to be here I really, really do. I missed it before with Rory I wasn't there for her. I don't want it to happen again. You and Rory are so close I only wish I had that. I've wanted this for years, you, me, and Rory."
"You really thought a lot about this haven't you?" Chris nodded, "Okay I'll tell you what if you find a job here you can keep it and stay with us. But if you can't you have to go back to Boston and keep your old job."
"Deal"
"Let me warn you. You don't know how we Gilmore's live. You may not be able to take us on full time."
Part of Lorelai was extremely happy and the other part of her wasn't sure about the whole thing. She was glad that Chris actually wanted to be part of this family. She didn't have to force him into anything. He's being more responsible now. But the other part of her believes that he'll break her heart again. She'll fall back in love with Chris and then he'll leave. She wouldn't be able to bear that.
