Mr. & Mrs. Huntzberger
I do not own any of the characters, settings, music, books or movies mentioned in this story. Thank you!
Logan and Rory had just returned from their honeymoon on the day of New Years Eve. They had a wonderful time, relaxed, slept in and made love everyday. The Gilmores and Huntzberger families rented a room out at the country club to celebrate their new year. Stephanie, Colin, Finn, Jasmine, Paris, Doyle, Laneand John were to come as well. Along with Christopher and Gigi. Lane and John had been dating exclusivly for a week now. And Doyle had proposed to Paris Christmas night, and they were to get married sometime in March. Finn and Jasmine in February, and the birth of Atley was going to happen in the middle of January.
"Logan have you seen my silk black dress?" Rory asked from the banaster on the stairs to Logan whom was occupied in the library. There bags from the trip still on the floor in the foryer.
"Did you say something Ace?" he asked walking out with a book in his hands already dressed.
"Yes, do you know where my silky black dress is, I am wanting to wear that tonight." Rory repeated to him.
"No, but I put something on the bed for you." Logan said walking off to return to the library with a smirk on his face.
"What are you reading?" Rory asked before he could get to the library.
"The Notebook." he replied looking at her.
"Oh, a John Nickolson book." Rory said rolling her eyes before she returned to their room. Logan just smirked again and walked back to the libary.
On the bed Rory found a white box, and a black box. In the white box she found a dark red dress. It fit her tight at the top then belled out at the bottom ending right at her knees. In the smaller black box were simple black pumps, but had a red streak at the side the same color as her dress. She smiled as she put them on. Her hair done up in a curly bun, and she wore a simple silver necklace with a red rose at the end of the chain. She smiled when she looked at her reflection in the mirror. 'perfect' she thought. Then headed back down the stairs with Pushkin following her every move. She found Logan waiting with her long red coat by the door.
"Ready Ace?" He asked as she slipped into the coat.
"Yup, what car are we taking?" she asked as they headed towards the garage.
"The Range Rover, Gigi is comming home with us tonight I think. I spoke to Christopher last night." Logan replied grabbing the keys from the wall. They got in, and he opened the garage door for that side. Then the button for the gate at the end of the drive. It wouldn't open. "Damn it, I bet it froze again." Logan groaned as he stepped out to push the gate then got back in the car. "Alright, now we can go." he said with a laugh as he grabbed Rory's hand.
"Oh I bought a new c.d. yesterday when I was on my lunch break." Rory said reaching under her seat for the bag. "Modest Mouse." she said as she put it in and the horn started.
"I didn't know you liked them. They are going to be in concert next week in New York, I can get us tickets through the paper." Logan said refering to his work which his father owned.
"That would be great!" Rory said excitedly. They sang along together to 'Float On' until they reached the club. It was just a little after eight when they arrived, and everyone else was already there it seemed as they glanced at the cars in the parking lot.
When they walked in music was playing and everyone either standing around talking or dancing to the music. Finn was dancing with Gigi in his arms, and Jasmine accross from him. Gigi was wearing her Tinkerbelle costume, and Jasmine was wearing the blue 'Wendy' dress, which only meant Finn had his Perter Pan costume around there somewhere.
"Looks like we are going to be entertained by yet another skit with Finn and Gigi in it." Rory said pointing to the three. Logan laughed.
"Finn naked is bad, but Finn is tights is going to be strangely weirder." he replied laughing.
"Rory! I missed you. How was the trip? I want every detail." Lane said giving Rory a hug. The girls walked away together talking about the honeymoon. Logan smiled and walked over to John who was sitting alone on one of the couches.
"Hey John, how have you been?" Logan asked as he sat down next to him.
"Good, Lane and I are now a couple." John replied with a smile.
"That's what I heard. Congrats on that. Lane is a really sweet girl." Logan said looking over to Rory and Lane talking and laughing about something. He was hoping it wasn't the incident at the club , but it probably was. He just smirked.
"We were sitting there and this guy came up to us and says 'do you want to dance?', and I am like no, Logan says I am here with him, so he turns around, but then comes back to us a few minutes later and says 'you do know this is a gay bar right? I was asking you." he says to Logan. Logan's face turned red, he grabbed my hand and we ran out laughing. I was wondering why we were getting looks all night." Rory said finishing her story. Both of them laughing so hard they were in tears.
"You just told her the gay club story didnt' you?" Logan asked sitting next to Rory, and John taking a seat next to Lane.
"Me? Never!" Rory said in a sarcastic voice. She smiled and kissed Logan.
"I'm sorry, but you cannont ignore mommy for much longer." Lorelai said sitting on top of Rory's lap.
"Oh I would never ignore my mommy." Rory replied giving her mom a hug then pushed her off her lap onto the floor, but Lorelai drug her down with her so they both fell to the floor laughing. Right when Luke walked over.
"What the hell are you doing on the floor?" he asked helping Lorelai up with a confused look on his face.
"I just missed Rory so much." Lorelai replied pinching Rory's cheeks and talking an annoying baby voice.
"Did you guys have a good trip?" Luke asked ignoring Lorelai with a smirk on his face.
"Yes we did. It was perfect. You two should go sometime." Logan replied. "Do you guys want something to drink, I am going to get myself one?" he asked before walking over to the table of food and refreshments.
"I would like a bloody mary." Rory replied. Everyone else shook their heads no. So he walked off to the drink table right when Emily and Richard approached him.
"Logan, did you and Rory enjoy your honeymoon?" Emily asked him with a smile.
"Hello Emily, Richard. Yes we did. It was very nice." Logan replied politely.
"Well Richard and I just loved the post cards you two sent us. Didn't we Richard?"
"Yes we did Emily." Richard replied with a smile as he took a drink from his scotch.
"Well I am going to return to my lovely wife over here to give her her drink." Logan said walking away.
"Your grandparents are up to something" he said as he sat back down next to Rory and handed her the drink.
"What?"
"Your grandparents are up to something, which means my parents are probably up to something as well. What are they doing, what could they be doing?" He asked frantically.
"I don't know. We are in love, live together, married, what more do they want?" Rory asked annoyed.
"I'm not sure, but let's just let it go tonight and have a good time, then get lots of sleep tomorrow." Logan said rubbing her back a bit. She nodded and gave him a kiss.
"You guys look!" Lane said pointing accross the room as Finn re-entered from the bathroom. Now wearing his Peter Pan outfit. Logan and Rory both laughed, but still had a very disgusted looks on their faces.
"Ugh the tights!" Colin yelled going over to wear Login was sitting ot be as far away from Finn as possible, soon Stephanie joining him.
"We will now do a skit from Peter Pan." Finn said as Gigi, Jasmine and him sat cross legged on the floor. They re-acted the scene where Peter teaches Wendy how to fly. "And All You need is Pixie Dust" he recited.
"I can fly!" Jasmine recited while Gigi crossed her arms in jealousy just like Tinkerbelle did. Everyone rolling on the floor laughing because of the scene in front of them. They ended with holding hands and pretending to jump out a window to fly. Christopher took many pictures of Finn and Gigi together since she loved the one framed one she had so much.
"Bravo! Bravo!" Colin yelled as everyone clapped at the end, except for Mitchum who had turned around in dusgust at the tights Finn was wearing.
"Logan son did you have a good time?" Mitchum asked Logand trying divert his eyes from Finn as he and Gigi dance together.
"Yes we did." Logan replied.
"It looks like you both got alot of sun." Shira said looking at Logan's tan replection, and Rory's rather burnt one.
"Well you know that darn sun just loves pail people." Rory replied with a smile.
"We eve-" Logan was about to say something when Stephanie screamed. She fell to her knees on the floor grabbing her stomach in pain.
''Steph are you okay? Baby what's wrong?" Colin asked frantically going to the floor with her.
"the...baby.."was all she could get out. Colin picked her up.
"Logan will you help me get her out to the car?" Colin asked almost yelling.
"Yes, sure." Logan said nervously opening the doors all the way to the car for him. Colin gently put Stephanie in the front seat then got in the drivers seat himself. "We will be there in a few minutes." Logan said running back inside after Colin nodded then backed up.
"We're going to the hospital, sorry." Logan said as him and Rory walked out to the door to the car. Followed by Jasmine and Finn, then John and Lane. They didn't know Stephanie, but they also didn't know anyone in the room very well either. Besides Lane knowing Lorelai and Luke, but they left as well. Honor and Josh following behind them.
"Well we should go as well. It would be the respectable thing to do." Emily said while grabbing her purse.
"I agree. Mitchum she has been close friends with Logan for a long time. We should go." Shira said also grabbing her purse. They walked out the door followed by Christopher and Gigi. They were all going so he might as well too. Stephanie was a friend of Rory's so he figured he should be there for Rory in case something happend.
Everyone was seated in the maternity ward waiting room. After sitting for forty five minutes Colin finally came out of Stephanie's room. Everyone's attention turned to him.
"She is having contractions, and is going to go into labor soon. She isn't dialated all the way, but she will have Atley premature." Colin said looking a bit pail.
"Will the baby be okay though?" Finn asked concerned.
"Yes, it is only a month so he will be fine. Stephanie is in a lot of pain right now, but they will give her something soon, when she is further dialated." Colin explained. "Thank you all for comming. You can go back to the party." he said feeling bad that they were all there instead of having a good time.
"There is a tv right there, we have a bottle of scotch, and paper cups are over there. We will be fine, besides shouldn't the 'aunts and uncles' be here for the birth?" Logan asked with a smirk.
"Okay, yes, but if any of you get tired please feel free to go. It will not hurt our feelings at all, and thank you guys for comming." Colin replied before turning to go back to the room.
"Hey Steph. Everyone is here, and they are going to stay until you have the baby. Is there anything I can do for you right now?" Colin asked when he went back to the room. He held her hand as he asked her.
"Will you have Jasmine and Rory come in here?" Stephanie asked. Colin nodded and went to get them. They walked into the room slowly, with concern written all over their faces.
"Hey Steph." Rory and Jasmine said in unison as they approached the bed.
"Hi guys. Can you two do something for me?" Stephanie asked obviously in pain from another contraction, which she tried to ignore.
"Anything." Rory replied.
"I don't know how well Colin is going to take the whole birth, so if he is walking in and out of this room alot will you two try to comfort him alittle, some how?" Stephanie asked.
"Of course." Jasmine replied.
"Thank you, thank you for staying too. It means alot." Stephanie said. "Now can you please go get Colin again?"
They left the room, and returned to the waiting room. It was ten thirty. Stephanie was dialated four inches, and the ball would drop in two hours. Finn kept getting odd looks from people that would come in, or pass by. He didn't understand why until he remembered what he was wearing, the Peter Pan costume still.
"I ungry Finn." Gigi said sliding off his lap.
"Okay we will go get you something to eat then." he said taking her hand along with Jasmine's to walk to the hospital cafeteria.
"I am getting kind of hungry too." Rory said to Logan as Josh and Honor walked out after Finn and Jasmine.
"So am I, lets go with them. John do you and Lane want something too?" Logan asked before leaving. They nodded and walked with them to the cafeteria, followed by Christopher.
"Well isn't this just great? We get to sit here and eat hospital food, when we have all that food back at the club. Typical." Emily said standing with Richard to walk to the cafeteria as well. Then Lorelai and Luke to get coffee. Mitchum and Shira stood and walked down as well.
"yuck!" Gigi said after taking a bite of her jello.
"Yea I know Princess, but you need to eat something, and this is about as good as it gets." Finn said eating his jello as well. Gigi just nodded and did as she was told since it was Finn.
"Look, ColdPlay is performing." Rory said referring to the tv. Everyone watched for a minute until turning their attention to Colin who had just walked in.
"She is now dialated seven inches. They said to give it another hour or so and she would be ready to push." he said.
"Are you hungry, or do you need anything at all?" Rory asked concerned for Colin.
"No, no I'm fine. I am going to be a father in a matter of hours!" Colin said with a smile plastered on his face. Everyone smiled at him in return.
"Colin is she okay?" Stephanie's mother asked from behind him. He nodded and took her back down the hallway to her room. She had just arrived with her husband.
"Poor Cowin" Gigi said shaking her head like she understood. Everyone smiled at her then returned to the television. The MTV special was on.
A half hour later Gigi fell asleep in Finn's arms. Christopher offered to take her several times, but Finn isisted on him holding her. He needed experience he would say then smile at Jasmine. Everyone took note of this comment, but didn't say anything. Even Shira and Emily held their tongues. About them anyways.
"It will be so nice when we will get to be here for our own grandchilderen, won't it Shira?" Emily asked hinting towards Logan and Rory.
"Indeed it will Emily." Shira replied in the same tone. Logan and Rory just focused on the tv pretending not to hear, nor care. When inside they did.
"How much do you want to bet they have names already picked out, for both of our kids?" Honor asked with a laugh.
"Oh I would defintly not put a bet on that one. I wouldn't be surprised if they already had some sort of inhertance set up for them as well." Logan replied then turned his attention back to the tv.
An hour later the count down started to go. Everyone counted with them.
"10"
"9"
"8"
"7"
"6"
"5"
"4"
"3"
"2"
"1"
"Happy New Year!" They all said in unison. All the couples kissed then went around the room giving hugs to each other. Then Colin came running down the hallway.
"It's time she is about to start pushing!" he yelled then ran back to her room. He was scared out of his mind, yet happy. His son was about to be born any minute now. He was going to get to meet something he helped create. Everyone headed back to the waiting room. Finn rocked Gigi in a Lazy Boy they had in the room. He smiled as she mumbled something in her sleep.
"I can't believe it, this year went by so fast." Richard said in shock that another year had just rolled on by. Everyone nodded in agreement.
"We would love to stay but I have a very busy day tomorrow. Logan, Rory please call us tomorrow to tell us if everything went all right." Mitchum said as he and Shira were getting ready to leave.
"Will do dad. Bye mom." Logan replied shaking his fathers hand and hugging his mom. Rory hugged them both then took her original seat beside Logan. Jasmine had fallen asleep on Finn's shoulder, and he too was drifting with his head on top of hers. Lorelai was asleep in Luke's arms, and Lane and John were in the next room probably making out. Josh and Honor just sat in silence, as did Richard and Emily.
"I think we should go Emily. Logan and Rory can call us as well tomorrow." Richard said standing up and stretching his back.
"Okay Richard. Good bye Logan, bye Rory." Emily said giving them each a hug. Then gave one to Lorelaie and awkwardly one to Luke.
"We hope to hear from you all soon." Richard said as they walked out the door.
"All parental units are now gone!" Honor said relieved. "What a night though."
"You've got that right." Lorelai said during her yawn.
"Mom you can go too if you want. We will be fine, and I will call you tomorrow.Dad you too" Rory said watching as her mother grew more and more tired by the minute,and Christopher had to work tomorrow.
" I will see you later guys. Thank you for watching Gigi again. If you need anything at all just call. I can still hire a babysitter, she just likes to be with you, but a babysitter is still an option." Chris offered but they shook his head and he walked out.
"Okay, I will talk to you tomorrw then toots." Lorelai said giving her a hug. "And you, don't be a stranger. Actually talk to me when I call." Lorelai said with a smirk as she hugged Logan.
"Yes ma'am." he replied with an equal smirk. He shook Luke's hand after Rory hugged him then they were gone.
"Just us then I guess." Josh said looking over to a sleeping cluster of Finn, Jasmine and Gigi, then Lane and John came back in.
"We don't exactly know Steph that well so we are going to take off. Please call me though ok Rory?" Lane said giving her best friend a hug. Rory nodded.
After another hour of waiting Colin came back into the room.
"I am a dad!" Colin said excitedly. Everyone jumped up and hugged him that was awake. "Altey Morgan, six pounds, eight ounces, twenty inches long." he went on excitedly
"Can we go in to see him?" Rory asked hopeful.
"Yes, but only one at a time." Colin replied taking a seat next to Logan. "Steph wanted to see you anways." Colin said pointing to Rory. Rory smiled and dashed over to the room that held Stephanie and Atley.
"Steph he is beautiful!" Rory said softly looking at Atley.
"I know. I am so happy he is finally here. He is perfect. Ten little toes, fingers, his pretty blue eyes." Stephanie gushed as she looked down at her first born son. Rory felt tears comming to her eyes when she thought again to all the 'what ifs' that she had thought about so many times after that horrible day.
"Well I will have Logan come in next and then we need to get home. Gigi is going home with us tonight." Rory said. She leaned down and gave Stephanie a hug the best she could then walked out. Logan was in and out. He picked Gigi's sleeping body up from Finn's arms then they walked to the Range Rover.
"He was cute wasn't he?" Rory asked as they drove home.
"Yes he was." Logan replied.
"He was so tiny. I can't believe how small he was. I mean I know babies are small, but I guess I have never seen a baby right after it was born." Rory went on.
"Don't worry Ace, it will happen with us too." Logan said reasurring her. Even though she didn't say so, he knew she was having a hard time with the miscarriage still. Rory only nodded. "We will just take our time, and when it is right, it will happen." he went on and took her hand in his the rest of the drive home.
