A/N: Someone had asked if Rory was going to be in this story she will be making an appearance really soon. But I don't like the way Rory has been this season so I will bechanging her back to the way she was. Also someone askedifLuke and Lorelai were going to get married? I haven't decided yet. You will just have to wait and see.

Thanks again to all of you who have reviewed my story so far. It really means alot to me. Also thanks to Elizabeth Bennent for being a great beta.

That night

Lorelai lay in bed with Luke. His arm wrapped securely around her. She was trying to figure out what woke her up. And then she heard it again it sounded like someone was coming up the stairs, but that wasn't possible was it? She was in Luke's apartment no one would be coming up the stairs in the middle of the night and then she heard what sounded like a key in the lock. The door slid open and just as Lorelai was about to scream for Luke to wake up she saw him. Jess walked into the apartment he looked like he was dead on his feet even in the darkness. Even though she didn't like him very much she still felt bad for the kid. Maybe it was the pregnancy making her soft.

"Jess?" Lorelai called out to him from her place in bed. Slowly she disentangled herself from Luke. And went over to where he was standing.

"Lorelai? What are you doing here?" Jess asked more than slightly shocked to see her.

"Well I was sleeping. What are you doing here?" Lorelai asked not even trying to explain why she was sleeping here.

"I came to see Luke." Jess said.

"Well he's sleeping right now. That's what normal people do in the middle of the night," Lorelai said.

"Since when are you normal?" Jess asked with a smirk.

"Good point. Listen I'm too tired to even ask why you're here. How about you go get some sleep in your old bed?" Lorelai asked with a yawn.

"Sure, night," Jess said as he made his way over to the bed.

"Night Jess," Lorelai turned and went back to bed. Snuggling up to Luke as he unconsciously put his arm around her and pulled her closer.

The next morning Lorelai woke up to the insistent beeping of Luke's alarm clock. She swung her arm in the direction of the offending noise, smacking Luke in the nose.

"Ow! What was that for?" Luke asked as he reached over to turn off the alarm.

"Mmm... too early."

"Go back to sleep then," Luke said kissing her forehead before moving to get out of the bed. Lorelai grabbed his hand pulling him back to her before he could get up.

"I have to tell you something," she whispered, not even bothering to open her eyes.

"What?" Luke asked tucking a stray hair behind her ear. Lorelai opened her eyes looking up into Luke's.

"Jess is here," Lorelai said pointing over to the small bed in the corner where Luke could just make out Jess' foot hanging off the bed.

"When?" was all Luke could get out.

"He showed up here last night while you where sleeping. I guess he still had his key. He scared me half to death when he came in the door."

"Why didn't you wake me up?"

"I thought it would be better to talk to him after you had a full night's sleep. Plus Jess looked like he was about to fall over. So I told him to go to bed and he could talk to you in the morning."

"Thank you," Luke said as he leaned down to give her a soft kiss.

"For what?"

"For taking care of Jess last night. For letting me sleep. Just for being here," Luke dropped his voice as he added the last part.

"It was my pleasure. Now why don't you go wake up Jess and find out why he's here?"

"Ok, sounds good. Try to go back to sleep. You need your rest," Luke said as he bent down to give her one last kiss before he got out of bed.

He grabbed a shirt on his way over to where Jess was. He reached over and grabbed his shoulder shaking him.

"Jess?" after trying the gentle approach. Well what he considered gentle. A few minutes he went for what always worked in the past. He moved to stand at the end of the bed. Then pulled the blanket off of him.

"Jess! Get up now!" He said as he pulled on his leg. Jess jumped as he rolled over to look at Luke.

"Did you have to wake me up like that?" Jess asked grabbing for the blanket Luke was still holding.

"We need to talk and then you can have this back," he said, holding up the blanket.

"Fine. What do you want to talk about?" Jess said laying back down on the bed.

"How about we start with why you're here?" Luke asked as he folded his arms across his chest.

"What? Aren't you happy to see me?" Luke just glared at him "You said after mymom's wedding that I was always welcome here. So here I am. Now can I go back to sleep?" Jess asked making a move to grab his blanket back from Luke. Luke pulled it back from him.

"Not yet. How long are you planning on staying here?"

"I don't know yet. I'm looking at schools in the area. So I thought I could stay here and save up some money."

"Ok that's good. We are going to have to set up some ground rules though." Luke said.

"Oh, God !" exclaimed Lorelai.

Both Luke and Jess turned to look at Lorelai as she jumped up and ran to the bathroom.

"Go back to sleep," Luke told Jess as he threw the blanket at him. On his way to check on Lorelai. He crossed the apartment to the bathroom. The door was open a crack. So he slipped in finding Lorelai on the floor with her arm thrown over the toilet and her head resting against it.

"Hey are you ok?" Luke asked as he kneeled down next to her.

"Just peachy," Lorelai responded not moving.

"Come on lets get you back to bed," Luke said as he pulled Lorelai up to her feet supporting most of her weight.

"Do you want anything? Are you hungry?" Luke asked as he helped Lorelai settle into bed.

"If you value your life you will not mention food again," Lorelai said closing her eyes.

"Sorry," Luke said as he moved to get up off of the bed. But Lorelai grabbed his hand to keep him on the bed with her.

"Stay with me,"

"I can't I have to open the diner."

"Come on only a few minutes its only," she looked around him to see the clock, "5:15."

"Fine, move over," Luke said as he moved to lay down next to her. Once she was settled against him Lorelai closed her eyes.

"So why is Jess here?" Lorelai asked taking his hand and locking her fingers with his.

"He wants to stay here so he can save some money. He's looking at colleges in the area. I told him we needed to lay down some ground rules," Luke answered running his thumb over the top of her hand.

"Hmm... that's good. I have to tell Rory."

"I know. Do you think she will be ok with it?"

"I don't know. I mean who would have thought that I would rather her be with Jess over Logan or Dean. At least she was normal with Jess; not the pod Rory that was present when she was with Dean this fall. And now Pod Rory comes out every time she's with Logan."

"It will be ok. Get some rest we have to be at the doctor's at nine," Luke said as he moved to kiss her forehead and get out of bed.

"Mmm hmm," Lorelai was already asleep by the time he was out of bed.

"Is she ok?" Luke was stopped on his way out by Jess

"She's fine, just morning sickness," Luke stopped when he realized what he had said.

"She's pregnant?" Jess asked looking up at Luke

"Yeah but we haven't told anyone yet not even Rory. So you have to keep it to your self, alright?" Luke said with a look that told Jess he would pay if he said anything.

"Sure. Um...congratulations."

"Thanks. Now I have to go open. Try not to wake her up," Luke said pointing over to his bed.

"Sure."

Later that morning ...

Luke went upstairs a few hours later to check on Lorelai. He didn't see her when he walked into the apartment.

"Hey, where's Lorelai?" Luke asked Jess who was sitting at the table eating.

"She's in the bathroom. I think she's losing her breakfast."

"Great," Luke said as he made his way over to the bathroom.

"Lorelai ? Are you ok?" Luke asked as he knocked on the bathroom door. Lorelai opened the bathroom door a few minutes later. Looking like death she walked right into Luke who wrapped his arms around her.

"I hate you," Lorelai mumbled against his chest

"I know I'm sorry" Luke laughed at her sarcasim and hugged her closer.

"I hate Jess too," Lorelai said as she pulled back slightly from Luke

"Why?" Luke asked confused

"He's eating," Lorelai said as she glared at Jess.

"Hey what did I do?" Jess asked when he saw the look she was giving him.

"You're eating," Lorelai said in a matter of fact voice.

"Yeah? And?" Jess asked looking at her like she was crazy.

"And..." Lorelai searched for words but tired of it and flopped back down on the bed, "Luke tell him." Lorelai demanded as she lay down on the bed.

"Jess can you try not to eat around Lorelai in the mornings? You can eat whatever you want downstairs."

"Fine whatever let me get dressed," Jess said as he walked over to grab his bag before heading into the bathroom.

"He knows about the baby?" Lorelai asked as she changed her clothes while Jess was in the bathroom.

"Yeah. He asked if you were ok this morning and it kind of just slipped out. I'm sorry."

"It's ok. Did you tell him to keep quite about it for now?"

"Yeah. I don't think he will say anything."

"Ok, well what time is it?" Lorelai asked.

"7:30. We need to leave in about a half hour."

"Alright can you make me some toast? I think that's the only thing I can stomach. Oh and maybe an apple."

"Sure," Luke said as he kissed her forehead before letting her go and making his way over to the kitchen.
