Chapter Five

By the time the group got there it was eleven at night so they all decided to go to bed. Around two in the morning Cody began to cry. He hadn't eaten since eight. Lucas ran to the crib to quiet his crying son. He searched through all his bags but he didn't find any formula. So he got changed and went downstairs hoping to god maybe the hotel staff had a bottle. When he got to the main room he found Lorelai Gilmore, the manager at the front desk. He hadn't really met her. He had only saw her. Whitey had gone in and left them on the bus to get the rooms. When they went in she was going into the dining room to help a customer.

Doesn't she ever go home, Lucas thought.

Cody started to cry again and it made Lorelai look up at him. She smiled at him.

"Do you know where I can some formula?" Lucas asked.

"I don't have any here but I send for some," Lorelai suggested.

"Okay, but he needs a special kind."

Lucas told her the kind he needed and Lorelei made a phone call. When she hung up she motioned for him to take a seat. He sat on one of the couches.

"Sookie will be here in ten minutes," explained Lorelai.

"I didn't wake her did I?"

"Nah. Sookie's usually up with her little one by now."

Lorelai took a seat in the chair across from Lucas.

"What's his name?" Lorelai asked.

"Cody Scott," replied Lucas.

"I couldn't help but wonder why you were using that formula. Isn't only for the babies that don't have their mother to breast feed from?" Lorelai asked.

"It is. His mother left her on my doorstep with only a note," explained Lucas.

"I'm sorry."

"It's okay. I was never really in love with the mother. I was hurting over the break up with my girlfriend and I did something stupid one night."

"Do you regret it?" Lorelai asked.

"At first I did. Afterwards I found out who the woman was. Her name was Nikki. She had gone out with my friend Jake. She had his baby too. Jenny. She left Jenny a month after she was born. Jenny is now almost a year old. Nikki had come back to gain custody of her. She stayed for a week and then disappeared. We all wondered why. Then ten months later we knew."

"That's a lot to deal with," Lorelai said, "How old are you?"

"Seventeen. But I'm not alone. I have my mom, my brother Nathan, my best friend who happens to my sister-in-law, Brooke, Peyton, Jake, Coach Whitey, and countless others."

"It's good to have help."

Sookie St. James burst through the front door.

"I have the formula," Sookie exclaimed.

"Thank you," Lucas said.

"I put it in one of my bottles. I figure the little guy would want it as fast as he could," Sookie explained.

"Thanks."

Lucas brought the bottle to Cody's mouth and Cody drank greedily.

"You okay Lucas?" Brooke asked.

"Cody was just hungry and I didn't have any formula."

Brooke took a seat next to Lucas. She leaned down and kissed the top of Cody's head. Lorelai and Sookie stood to the side quietly talking as they watched Brooke and Lucas interact.

"We'll go tomorrow and get him some formula," Brooke told him.

"Okay," Lucas agreed.

"Wanna go watch a movie. I don't think I'll be able to fall asleep."

"Sure."

Lucas and Brooke went up the stairs leaving Lorelai and Sookie alone.

"Poor kid. He's so young," Sookie stated.

"He'll be okay. He's got so much help. And I don't think Cody will go motherless."

Sookie nodded in agreement.
