Only one more chapter to go!
Lorelai sat in one of the Dragonfly bedrooms. She faced the mirror and began putting her make up on. It was her actual wedding day and Luke and her had arranged a little surprise for her loveable townspeople. No one had suspected a thing after the unplanned wedding, which gave her and Luke two weeks to get used to being married to each other, even though it wasn't much different from normal. She was about to put her mascara on where she was interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Come in!" She shouted. The door swung open and behind her Lorelai could feel someone enter the room and close the door behind them. Lorelai spun round in her seat and was met by the saddened eyes of her one and only daughter. "Hey" Lorelai greeted softly, she stood and moved closer to Rory.
"Hey"
"What are you doing here?" Lorelai asked looking at the bright blue bridesmaid's dress Rory was wearing.
"Don't you remember? I told you that even if we were fighting I would still be here as your maid of honour" Lorelai smiled.
"Yeah I remember…..you look beautiful" Rory looked down at the dress she was wearing and blushed slightly. "So how are things with you?"
"I've been to the doctor, everything's okay"
"Good"
"Logan left me"
"Oh honey, I'm so sorry"
"It's okay, I wasn't in love with him so-"
"Is he gonna-?"
"He's not staying but he's going to give me money to support the baby which is more than dad did for you"
"Still, I'm sorry. I didn't want you to raise the baby alone"
"I won't be"
"No you won't. Me and Luke are here for whatever you need you hear me? On the days you start feeling crappy I'll come and rub your ankles for you and stop you from panicking, or even just to baby-sit because you know, I have a little experience with things like this" Rory laughed "And we'll always be around if you need someone to talk to" Rory walked to her mom and wrapped her arms tightly around her. Lorelai reciprocated, wrapping her arms around her and stroking her hair gently like she did when Rory was a child. They pulled apart slowly and laughed.
"So things are okay between us?" Lorelai asked. Rory nodded.
"I hate fighting with you"
"Me too"
"Mom, you're getting married today!"
"Err, yeah…sure" Lorelai tried to sound excited but it was hard to be exciting about getting married to the man you love when you were already married to him.
"Mom, please tell me you're going through with this"
"Sure, and I'll be ready soon so go get into position"
"Are you sure you don't need any help with anything"
"I'm sure now go" Lorelai gently pushed Rory out the door and closed it Behind her. As soon as she was left alone Lorelai put on her dress and followed her downstairs for the ceremony.
Everyone was sitting down ready in their best clothes, ready for the wedding. The slight chatter died down when Lorelai stepped out and walk to the front.
"S'cuse me, can I get everyone's attention, thanks" She clasped her hands together and smiled. "So the reason I'm standing up at the front is because me and Luke aren't getting married today" Chatter started up immediately. Lorelai whistled loudly to regain everyone's attention. "The reason me and Luke aren't getting married is because we are already married" Lorelai lifted up her left hand and showed everyone her wedding ring, which she had joyfully put back on. Even louder discussion began "Now I know what you are all thinking" Lorelai shouted over the noise "but we didn't just get all you dressed up only to send you home again. Me and Luke felt bad that you couldn't be there for our wedding so today we're having a blessing slash vow renewal thing. It's kinda like a wedding and there's still going to be a party afterwards with lots of cake and music, I hope you aren't disappointed that you couldn't witness the real thing but if you are, I hope this will make up for it. So… let's get this party started…" Lorelai ran to the back.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Rory whispered to her mother. Lorelai linked arms with Rory and replied.
"Later okay?" Rory stayed quiet and waited for the music to start for them to walk up the aisle towards Luke.
