A/N: Ok I know it's been sucking lately but I've been really busy with school but I have a long weekend so I'll get a lot up hopefully. I know that the past few chapters have been kind of filly but I have like no ideas that I could do now I have the 20th chapter planned out already but I don't know what to do in this one. So just so I can get up to where I should be I'm skipping to Valentines Day. Also just for a little change this is going to be in Jess's POV.
Andrea Rodriguez: thank you I will
Spinaround: you're welcome
"Happy Valentines Day" I said when I saw Rory open her eyes. She looked so peaceful still in that perfect time between sleeping and waking up. Then all of a sudden her eyes widened.
"Valentines Day as in the 14th" she yelled.
"Um yeah I here that's when it takes place" I joked. Needless to say she didn't appreciate it.
She got up and ran over to her dresser and took out her calendar. She looked at last month and started counting. She screamed and ran out of the apartment. I got up off the bed and picked up her calendar. I looked at last month and noticed a little red dot barely noticeable on the 2nd. She was two weeks late. I started looking through the rest of her calendar to see if this happened a lot. Just as I suspected it didn't.
Shit. What to do what to do. Well she's probably long gone by now but I should probably do something nice for her considering that it's kind of my fault. Well it's not totally your fault. I should still do something. Maybe you should wait until after you know for sure. Well 2 weeks is kind of a long time. Well you know it could just be a scare. Yeah scary. Maybe you can get a blanket but get a neutral color like yellow. Yea that just might work. Didn't Rory say that once that she caused her mom to crave apples maybe you should try that.
I quickly grabbed a pair of jeans and a t-shirt out of my drawer. I threw it on and ran out of the apartment. On my way downstairs I ran into Paris… literally.
"Watch it" she yelled "oh hey I was just going to see Rory is she upstairs?"
"Um no she's out" I said.
"Oh where" she asked.
"Uh I don't know" I said "my guess is either a hospital or a drug store" I added quietly.
"Is she ok" she asked.
"Huh" I said.
"You said your guess was a hospital or a drug store what happened" she said.
"You know what you can help me come on get in the car I'll explain on the way" I ordered.
"Pushy" she said and got into my car.
"Ok now spill what's going on" she said.
"Well I'm not sure" I admitted.
"Ok well what do you think is going on" she asked.
I told her the whole thing from the freak out this morning to me finding out she was late.
"So she's pregnant" Paris said skeptically.
"She thinks so" I said. Then my phone rang. I answered it.
"Hello" I said.
"Hey Jess it's Rory sorry I ran out like that this morning" she said.
"Oh it's ok I'm sure it was important" I said.
"Yeah well I'll be home in a few hours please be there when I get back I sort of have news" she said.
"Ok I'll be there bye I love you.'
"I love you too see you then."
"What was that about" Paris asked.
"Rory has big news" I said.
"Joy" Paris said sarcastically.
"We need to be back in an hour" I said.
First stop the grocery store. We got apples lots and lots of apples. We got coffee flavored ice cream since she can't have real coffee until after the baby's born. I got carrots and peas and any other vegetable I could find that could be made sweet. We bought stuff to make homemade pizza with and burgers and fried rice.
Next stop the baby store. We got a yellow blanket. We got some Mickey Mouse stuff. We also got some baby Einstein DVDs that Paris will force Rory to sit through so that the baby is smart as soon as it's born. I think Paris bought a crib too.
Third stop flower shop. We got her a dozen sunflowers. Those are her favorite. Fourth stop jewelers.
"Why are we at a jewelry store does the baby really need jewelry" Paris said.
"No but I think Rory needs a ring don't you" I said. Paris nodded and walked towards the engagement rings.
"That one's pretty" she pointed to a ring.
"That one's $15,000" I pointed out.
"Rory deserves the best" Paris announced.
"I agree but unfortunately I can't afford the best" I sighed.
"Well I would offer to pay but I doubt you'll let me so go with the best you can get" she suggested.
"That one" I pointed to a white gold ring with a half of a carat princess cut diamond in the middle. (I've never gotten a ring before I have no clue how much they cost or anything I'm just guessing that if Jess had to buy a ring the diamond would be small I don't even know if half a carat is small I'm just guessing.)
"Excellent choice" a salesperson named Linda exclaimed "It has a matching wedding ring for both the bride and groom."
"May we see them" Paris asked.
"Yes they are over here follow me" Linda said over excitedly.
We followed her to another counter and saw the two rings that went with the engagement ring.
"Would you like to try it on" Linda asked Paris.
Paris laughed.
"Oh no she's not um" I started.
"Oh I'm sorry I just assumed" Linda trailed off "well then I'm guessing you haven't proposed yet."
I shook my head.
"Well then I recommend you come back after you do and get the wedding rings when she's here" she said.
"Ok sounds good get the ring and hurry up we have to go" Paris rushed.
I put the ring on my credit card and we went back the apartment.
When we got there we put the baby blanket over the couch. We put the apples in a bowl on the counter. Paris put the Disney stuff and the crib in the book room and we moved all the books into the living room. She put the baby Einstein DVD in the DVD player. I put the sunflowers in a vase and started cooking. Paris helped so we cooked pretty fast we had just finished when we heard the door being unlocked. We stood in front of the couch and waited for her to come in.
"Hey Jess" Rory said when she walked in the door "oh hey Paris I didn't know you were here something smells good."
"I think I'm going to go" Paris left.
"What's with the blanket" Rory said "and why are the books in here?"
"What are you talking about" I asked innocently.
She walked into where the books used to be.
"OH MY GOD" she screamed "you know."
"Yeah you really shouldn't leave evidence on your dresser" I said.
"I prepared a whole speech I spent all afternoon in the park thinking of how to tell you and you already knew" she ranted. She started punching my chest and crying.
"Shh shh it's ok you can still read your speech if you want" I said.
Rory walked out of the room and looked at the TV. The starting menu for baby Einstein was on.
"Paris knows too" she said.
"Yeah she helped me get all the stuff" I said.
"You got all of this the apples the baby Disney stuff the sunflowers which are my favorite flower by the way" she stopped then continued "I bet Paris made you get the Baby Einstein but everything else you got do you know that you are the most thoughtful boyfriend ever."
"Well actually Paris got the crib" I said.
"Remind me to thank her" she said "now I'm starved and in need of coffee.'
She looked around the kitchen.
"Where's the coffee maker" she asked.
"Paris's car" I said.
"Why" she asked.
"You can't have coffee you can however have coffee ice cream with absolutely no caffeine" I said.
Rory pouted for a while then got hungry and ate her food.
"Coffee ice cream for desert" she asked.
I nodded and went to go get the ice cream. I put it in a bowl for her and a bowl for me then went to go sit down a grabbed the box from inside the bag on the counter and slipped it in my pocket.
When she finished eating her ice cream she started to worry.
"How am I going to go to school" she said.
"Well you can finish out this year and maybe take some online classes next year" I said.
"My mom how am I going to tell my mom" she said.
"Don't worry she can't be mad" I said.
"Why not?"
"You're five years older than she was when she had you."
"Yea being mad would be totally hypocritical."
"Yeah."
"Grandma and grandpa."
"A little harder."
She must have noticed me trying to rush her rant and me being a little fidgety.
"Are you ok you look kind of nervous what's in your pocket" she asked then I noticed my hand had been in my pocket the whole time.
"Well you kind of just ruined the surprise didn't you" I said.
"Just show me what's in your pocket" she demanded.
"Maybe I don't want to" I said.
She got up and reached into my pocket before I could stop her.
"A little blue velvet box" she said.
I snatched the box from her and got down on one knee.
"Jess what are you doing" she asked.
"I love you" I started.
"I love you too" she said.
"I love you so much I love your crazy movie nights and you coffee obsession and your crazy big book collection" I said.
"Hey yours is bigger" she said.
I laughed a little.
She's not going to make this easy. Did you think she would?
"Rory will you marry me" I asked flipping open the box.
She screamed and threw her arms around my neck.
"Is that a yes" I asked.
"Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes" she yelled.
I slipped the ring on her finger then picked her up and spun her around.
"Jess put me down" she yelled.
I walked over to the couch and threw her down gently. She grabbed my hand and pulled me down. She gave me a quick kiss then pushed meoff and ran to the phone.
She dialed a number and put it on speaker.
"Hello" Lorelai said.
"MOM" Rory yelled.
"RORY" Lorelai yelled "is everything ok."
"I'M GETTING MARRIED" she yelled.
"To who" Lorelai asked.
"Whom" Rory corrected her.
"Sorry to whom" Lorelai asked again.
"JESS" she yelled.
"When he said knock six zeroes off of 4 million I thought he mean 4 years not 4 months" Lorelai said.
"I did" I said.
"Hi Jess" Lorelai said.
"Hi Lorelai" I said.
"So you guys are getting married" she said "when after you graduate."
"No probably pretty soon" Rory said.
"Why are you pregnant" Lorelai joked.
"Uhhh" Rory said.
"Oh my god you're pregnant" she yelled.
"Who's pregnant?" Luke asked.
"Rory's pregnant" Lorelai told Luke.
"JESS YOU'RE DEAD" Luke yelled.
"Wow heaven's louder than I thought" I said sarcastically.
"OH you're going straight to hell mister" Lorelai yelled.
"Damn" I said.
Rory started laughing.
"It's not funny that kid just ruined your life" Lorelai exclaimed.
"No you said he's going to hell he said damn it was funny" I said.
I started laughing and so did Lorelai Luke just got madder.
"JESS" Luke yelled "I'm going to kill you then let Taylor sell you as ham."
"Luke you really can't point the blame all on him" Lorelai defended me.
"Yeah and he was really sweet too he got baby Einstein DVDs and baby Disney stuff and Paris got a crib the only mean thing he did was take away my coffee" Rory said.
"He took away your coffee what a horrible husband" Lorelai exclaimed "wait Paris knew before me.'
"Jess told her so she could help him pick out some stuff" Rory explained.
"Wait did you say husband" Luke asked.
"Yeah" Lorelai said "sorry I meant fiancé."
"You guys are engaged" Luke said.
"Yup" I said.
"Come over" Lorelai said "you can even bring Jamiee and Paris and Derrick and if you have to bring Doyle."
"Ok we'll come tomorrow" Rory said.
"Great we'll throw you a little engagement party" she said "see you tomorrow bye."
