1Lorelai, Luke and the kids stood outside the Gilmore mansion, just staring at the door.
"You ring it."
"No, you."
"You."
"You."
"Guys." said Candance to her sister and mother. "Rory is probably already in there, just ring the bell."
"You ring it." said Lorelai to Candance.
"No you." replied Candance. Luke grunted and rang the bell.
"Thank you." said Jake.
"Well, isnt it nice for you to finally show up." said Emily answering the door. "Rory's been here for fifteen minutes already."
"Sorry mom.."
"I mean, we haven't seen you for months, you could of had the decency to show up on time."
"Mom..were sorry."
"Come in..how are my grand children?"
"Were fine." said Candance.
"Well Candance answer for yourself." replied Emily.
"I'm fine grandma." said Jake.
"Good, and you Brittany?"
"Actually..i have to tell you and grandpa something."
"Oh really." smiled Emily. "Well, come into the living room."
The family walked into the living room where Rory and Richard were talking. Everyone said their hellos and sat down.
"So, Brittany you had something to tell us?" said Emily.
"Uh..yeah..." Brittany looked at her mother and father. They gave her reassuring looks.
"Well, what is it?"
"I...uh.." just then Brittany felt very nauseous. "Excuse me." Brittany ran up the stairs and into the bathroom where she emptied out her stomach.
"Is she sick?" asked Richard concerned.
"No.." said Lorelai.
"Mom what is it?" asked Rory.
"Shes pregnant." silence filled the room.
Brittany flushed the toilet and filled water in the palms of her hands. She took a gulp and walked out of the room. When she reached the top of the staircase she saw her grandfather walk into his study. Brittany decided that this was not a good time to go downstairs so she sat at the top step and listened.
"This is all your fault!" yelled Emily.
"My fault!" yelled Lorelai.
"You set a bad example to your children, you give them to much freedom, you know one of your children is going around getting pregnant, what about your other children? Candance, Jake, what about Rory..you have no idea whats going on in your children's lives."
"Thats it!" yelled Luke. "You have no right to assume that our children are bad news..and just because Brittany is pregnant doesn't make her a bad kid!"
"Mom, you gave me no freedom and i still got pregnant!" yelled Lorelai.
"Thats because you were uncontrollable!"
"This is unbelievable!"
"She is making the same horrible mistake you made."
"And thank you grandma." said Rory walking out of the room.
"Kids go out to the car." said Lorelai. Jake and Candance ran out of the room. Rory walked to the door but stopped when she saw a hysterical crying Brittany at the top of the steps.
"Oh, what am i gonna tell the DAR? My granddaughter got pregnant at 15? its such an embarrassment."
"Don't you dare call my daughter an embarrassment!" yelled Luke.
"Well she sure at something to brag about!"
"Thats it mother!" yelled Lorelai. "I had it! The only embarrassment in this family is you and only you!" Lorelai stormed out of the room and Luke in tow. They stopped when they saw Rory hugging Brittany at the top of the steps. Emily came out of the living room just in time to see a hysterical crying Brittany and a equally sad Lorelai, Rory and Luke. Brittany gave her grandmother a hateful look and ran out of the house. As the van pulled out of the driveway, Richard walked out of his study.
"Emily you should be ashamed."
"Me!" cried Emily shocked.
"Calling the child an embarrassment."
"You cant actually tell me that you approve of this!"
"Of course i don't approve, but i will help my granddaughter, and i want to see my great grandchild grow up.."
"Richard.."
"And do you realize by telling Lorelai that Brittany is making the same mistake she made, is calling Rory a mistake..."
"Oh Richard you know i didnt mean it like that..i love Rory, i love all my grandchildren."
"Really, could of fooled me." Richard walked back into his study.
The next day Lorelai took Brittany to the doctor. When they got into the office they had to fill out papers.
"Full name." said Lorelai.
"Mom, i think you know that one."
"Right, right...Date of Birth..know that one too..first birth..i would hope so.."
"Actually, i have a son, he lives in Wisconsin with his father.." smiled Brittany looking at some parenting magazines.
"Yup, defiantly your mothers daughter."
"Allergies to medications...nope..alright all done."
"Ms Danes?"
"Yes?"
"Doctor Hanson will see you now."
"Thank you." Lorelai and Brittany walked into the doctors room. It was white and had machines and degrees all around it.
"Mmm bop.." sang Lorelai.
"What was that?" laughed Brittany.
"Its Hanson.."
"Why would you sing that?"
"The doctors last name is Hanson.."
"Mom.." Just then the doctor burst through the doors.
"Hello ladies..I'm Doctor Hanson, you can call me Doctor H."
"Thank God." said Lorelai under her breath.
"I understand your..fifteen."
"Yes sir."
"Now, let me explain to you to procedure. First im going to ask you to change into this paper gown, then I'm gonna apply a cold gel on your stomach and then we can see how far your babies developed, how does that sound?"
"Sounds great."
"Alright, I'll be back in ten minutes."
"Okay." once the doctor left Brittany changed into her gown and laid on the table.
"All done?" asked the doctor poking his head in the door covering his eyes.
"Yes all done." laughed Brittany.
"Alright..lets..see." the doctor applied the gel which caused Brittany to wince on account it was so cold. Next the doctor rubbed a machine around her stomach and a picture came on the screen.
"You see that...thats your baby." smiled the doctor.
"Really?" asked Brittany amazed.
"Yup, really.."
"Its so tiny.."
"Right now, your about..two and a half months pregnant. Your morning sickness should stop within the next week or two.."
"Thank god."
"Yes, and you will need to get some maternity cloths, because once you get in your third month..you will start to show more then you already have."
"Thank you." smiled Brittany. The doctor left and Brittany looked in the corner of the room.
"Mom?"
"Yeah?"
"You were very quiet, i though you were gonna ask him every question known to man.."
"I guess i forgot..maybe next time.."
"Maybe.." said Brittany unsure.
Lorelai and Brittany got home and Brittany ran to her
room to put the sonograme picture on her bulletin board. Lorelai
sulked into the kitchen were Luke was making dinner.
"Hey."
said Luke.
"Hey."
"How did it go?"
"Great.." Luke turned around and saw tears in his wife's eyes.
"Hey, whats the matter?"
"What if..Brittany runs away like i did.."
"That wont happen."
"How do you know?"
"Because, we don't suffocate her like your parents did to you..we don't force her to do anything, and we still wont after the baby is born, we will let her raise it the way she feels."
"I guess..its gonna wanna call me grandma."
"So." laughed Luke.
"Grandma! Im thirty seven for crying out loud..grandmas are old and wrinkly...am i old and wrinkly?"
"You are far from it." said Luke kissing her.
"Thank you..and your not old and gray either, grandpa." smiled Lorelai. Luke laughed and walked back over to the stove.
"Brittany, dinners ready." said Luke knocking on his daughters door.
"Dad, come in here." Luke opened the door and walked in the room. He saw his daughter taking something off of the wall.
"Look, look." she said with a smile on her face.
"What is it?"
"That..is either your grandson or granddaughter."
"Wow...wow." said Luke as he sat down on the bed.
"Its it so tiny..and cute.."
"I still have your saved...your first sonograme.."
"Really?" smiled Brittany.
"Yeah...its hard to believe you were this tiny once.."
"Dad..I'm scared."
"Why?"
"Everyone always says, it's the most painful experience of you life.."
"What is?"
"Childbirth.."
"Uh..maybe you should ask you mother about this.."
"I know..its just...i know its really ahead of the game but..when i go into labor..there gonna have mom come in with me...can you come in too." asked Brittany shyly looking down. Luke smiled and grabbed his kids hand.
"Of course." Brittany looked up with a grin spread across her face.
"Really!"
"You bet."
"Thanks dad..i love you."
"You too kid." Luke hugged his daughter and got up. "Now lets go your dinners getting cold."
"We wouldn't want that." smiled Brittany as she walked down the steps.
