Next chapter already because they are all here on my laptop up to 17, so I thought I could give you another one. I hope you review as an appreciation for me being so nice... ; )

Chapter 14: The tooth-fairy

They arrived at home around six o´clock that night. Logan had played with the kids the whole time. He and Rory had left again, because they wanted to spend a weekend alone, which they hadn't done for some time.

So, Luke and Lorelai were alone with the kids again. The four of them were very tired from all the running around and especially the twins could barely hold their eyes open. They had missed their nap because of the game, and the lunch afterwards and were whiny.

"Luke, I will bath them very quickly and get them ready for bed. Or do you wanna do it and I watch these two?" she asked and gestured to William and Gigi, who were sitting on the living room floor, playing with William's toys.

"No, you go and bath them. I can't deal with them when they are whiny." Luke said and stroked over Sara's head. The girl was still on his arm, while Lorelai held Laila.

"Oooh, you know you can. You just don't want to. But it's okay. Then I can spoil them a little!" she grinned and Luke handed her Sara, while he grinned also. He knew it was true, but he also knew that Lorelai loved it to bath the twins: wash their hair and then cream them with the baby-cream and dry their long curls, comb their hair and then dress them into pink pajamas, while they were already half asleep and clung to her all cuddly.

Luke went into the kitchen, grabbed something to drink and then walked back and sat down on the couch and watched Gigi and William playing.

"Daddy! Is Gigi my sister, too?" William asked suddenly and startled Luke a bit.

"No, William. Gigi is Rory's sister." Luke said.

"But Rory is my sister. And Gigi is Rory's sister. So she is my sister too." William tried again.

"No, I'm not. Chris is my father and Rory's father, but not your father. So you are not my brother." Gigi explained.

"Is Chris your father?" William asked Gigi.

"Yes, I just told you!"

"But then he is your daddy and not Chris." William told her.

"I don't say daddy to him because nobody calls him daddy. All his friends call him Chris. And my mum calls him Chris. So I call him Chris, too." William thought about it for a moment.

"Mummy says hon´ to you daddy. Should I also call you hon?" he asked Luke then.

"Oh no. I'm perfectly fine when you keep calling me dad or daddy. And hon´ is not a name like Chris, William. You know that. Mummy calls you hon´ sometimes, too." Luke laughed

"Why do you want William to call you daddy and not Luke? Chris says sometimes it's better when people don't know that I'm his daughter when I'm not behaving and he has a business meeting. So I should call him Chris." Gigi asked Luke and sat down on the couch next to him.

"Well, uhm... I think I don't mind when people know that William, Sara and Laila are my kids, even when they aren't behaving. I like it that I have someone who can call me daddy" Luke explained a little uncomfortable. He didn't felt like talking to that girl at the moment, but more like punching Chris for saying something like that.

"Can I call you daddy, too?" Gigi asked shyly.

"Georgia, you aren't my daughter. And I don't think your father would like it."

"Rory isn't your daughter either" she stated.

"Yeah.. but... you know..." Luke started and was saved by Lorelai who came down the stairs at that moment. Or at least made the others noticing that she had come down the stairs at that moment. She had listened to the conversation for some time and decided to give Luke a break now.

"Look who are bathed with Barbie's bubble-bath and are smelling great, like babies..." she said quietly and walked over to Luke. He stood up and Laila and Sara held their arms out and he took them from Lorelai.

"Wow, you're smelling so great. But I think you are tired, aren't you?" Luke asked. Both girls shook their heads no, but yawned and then lay their heads down on his shoulders.

"I will go and tuck them in" he smiled at Lorelai.

"I come with you" she said and together they walked upstairs, placed the twins in their beds, tucked them in and kissed them before they walked back downstairs.

"Soooo, who wants to bath next?" Lorelai asked William and Gigi.

"Me, with daddy!" William decided and walked to Luke, then held up his arms, to signalize that Luke should pick him up, which he did.

"I don't like baths, I like to shower." Gigi said. She was still shy, but not as shy as she had been in the beginning.

"Okay, why don't you use the shower in the first bathroom upstairs and Will and Luke take the bathtub in our bathroom?" Lorelai said.

"Fine by me!" Luke decided and walked upstairs.

Lorelai lay out towels for Gigi, showed her the shower and the hairdryer. When she looked for a pajama for her, she saw that all of Gigi's dresses looked like the one she had worn that day. No jeans, no shirts.

Gigi was done very quickly and Lorelai showed her Rory's bedroom. Rory had allowed her to sleep in it for the night. With Gigi in bed, Lorelai walked over to her own bathroom. They had a huge tub in there, more like a Jacuzzi.

She had to smile when she saw her two men. Luke lay in the tub, William on his chest and stomach, his head against Luke's shoulder. The boy was fast asleep and Luke had his cheek on Williams head with closed eyes.

"Hey" Lorelai whispered.

"Hey" Luke whispered back. She grabbed a towel and held it open.

"Here, I take him!" she said and carefully took her son from Luke. When Luke wanted to get out as well, she held him back.

"You stay in there, Mister. I will just dress him and then I'll join you. Make sure that the water is not too cold!" she grinned and then got William ready for bed. She brought him to his room and then came back, stripped down her clothes, took the hand Luke offered to help her in and then sat down in the tub between his legs, her back against his chest.

"I still can't believe that Chris showed up at the Inn just like that." Lorelai sighed.

"Did he try it again?" Luke asked.

"What?"

"Did he try again to get back together with you?"

"No. I don't think so. I don't know. But he didn't know that we are married and have kids. Rory told him nothing. Maybe that's why he was so silent through dinner. The shock made him quiet!" Lorelai giggled.

"If he tries to ruin this, I will kill him!" Luke said.

"He can't ruin anything unless we let him. And there is no way I want to lose this. You, and our family."

"Okay" Luke just said as he buried his face in Lorelai's hair, nuzzled her neck and closed his eyes.

Lorelai woke Luke up in the middle of the night because she heard something. When Luke heard it, too, he walked out of the bedroom, carefully, while Lorelai clung to his arm and followed him.

"Lorelai, go back to bed! It's probably just William wandering around the house." he said, but she just held him tighter.

"But what if it's a robber and he is going to beat you or shoot you and then I'm in the bedroom and can't help you!" she whispered. Luke stopped walking and turned around with a small grin on his face.

"Lorelai, this is Stars Hollow. The worst thing that can happen here is that Kirk is wandering through your house at night and you find him under your kitchen table because he thinks that he is chased by assassins again. And if it would be a thieve, I'm sure you wouldn't stop him from killing me!"

"I'm Superwoman in my cute nightgown. He would be so stunned by my beauty, that I would have time to take a pan and hit him on the head with it!" she argued and again Luke stopped.

"You don't even know where the pans are!" he said with raised eyebrows, but took her hand and together they arrived downstairs. Luke turned on the light in the living room. There was nobody in the living room and the dining room was also empty, but in the kitchen they found Gigi.

She was standing on a chair by the sink, wetting a sponge.

"Gigi what are you doing here, all alone in the middle of the night, in the dark kitchen?" Lorelai asked her.

"I'm sorry!" Gigi said and sniffed. Lorelai looked at Luke, who shrugged and then walked over to her.

"Hey, sweetie, what's wrong?" Lorelai asked her and turned her around. She was still crying and looking more than guilty.

"I'm sorry. I made a mess. I want to clean it. But it doesn't stop bleeding!" she mumbled.

"You are bleeding? Where? Are you hurt?" Luke asked and rushed over to her.

"I lost a tooth and it´s bleeding and I made the pillow dirty. I'm sorry!" she sniffed again.

"Oh, Gigi. That's no reason to cry. Forget about that stupid pillow. This is a reason to celebrate. Is it the first tooth that you lost?" Lorelai smiled at her and wiped her tears away.

"No, the third" Gigi answered.

"And what did the tooth-fairy bring you so far?" Lorelai grinned.

"Tooth fairy?" Gigi asked.

"You mean you don't know the tooth-fairy? Oh my god!" Lorelai said stunned.

"Luke, she doesn´t know about the tooth-fairy! Where is the tooth you lost?" Lorelai asked Gigi. The girl pointed to the table.

"Okay, let's get you back into bed and I will tell you about the tooth-fairy, okay?" Lorelai smiled at her.

"It hurts!" Gigi said. Luke picked her up and placed her on the ground. Together they first walked into the bathroom where Lorelai handed her a cold wash-cloth, then they walked into Rory's room.

Gigi lay down on the bed.

"You know, whenever you lose a tooth you should place it under your pillow. At night when you are asleep the tooth-fairy comes and takes your tooth away and replaces it with some present. And when you wake up in the morning you find your present and it will help you with the loss of your tooth. So losing a tooth is always a good thing, because it means presents!" Lorelai explained to her.

"Did Rory got presents from the tooth-fairy?" Gigi asked.

"Of, course she did. Sometimes a book or some sweets. Little things she liked."

Gigi immediately lay her tooth under the pillow.

"So, now go to sleep so that the fairy can come!" Lorelai told her.

"I can't sleep in here. I'm scared!" Gigi admitted.

"Do you wanna sleep in Will's room?" Luke asked her.

"No, can I sleep in your room?" the girl asked with big innocent eyes and for the first time Luke and Lorelai saw some resemblance between Rory and Gigi.

"No problem. It's a little too much for you, huh? Foreign town, unknown people, unknown room" Lorelai said. Gigi nodded and then looked at Luke. The whole day she had watched his every move very carefully. Now she held out her arms to him, just like William, Sara and Laila do. Luke exchanged a look with Lorelai, then picked the girl up and carried her to their bedroom. They all lay down on the bed, Gigi between Lorelai and Luke. It just took some minutes for her to fall asleep and she snuggled closer to Luke.

"Seems, like you have a fan! Maybe I should be jealous!" Lorelai whispered and smiled.

"Poor girl!" Luke whispered back but looked serious. Lorelai slowly stood up and walked to her closet.

"What are you doing?" Luke asked.

"Being the tooth-fairy. We need a present!"

"It's three o'clock in the morning! All the shops closed at seven!"

"Well, this is a small town. I know where the owners are living. And this is an emergency!" she stated and slipped into a pair of jeans and a shirt.

"Lorelai! Come back to bed!" Luke groaned.

"Don't be bossy with the tooth-fairy! Otherwise there will be no presents for you when you will lose yours!" she grinned, kissed him, slipped out of the room and left the house to get a present for Gigi.
