Welcome back my faithful readers. I hope you like this chapter too.

Disclaimer: I dreamt that I owned it all, but a dream was all it was.

When the next morning arrived Lorelai woke to find Luke awkwardly sleeping on the couch. She couldn't help but smile, even after they had been having sex, he still wouldn't sleep in the bed with her. Lorelai was feeling back to her old self again, she decided it must have just been the lack of sleep and the extra 'work out' everyday that made her feel ill. She got out of the bed and headed to the bathroom to freshen up. She had accumulated many of her toiletries in his bathroom over the last week. Each occasion adding something that she had forgotten the time before and now here was all of her stuff on his shelf, in his bathroom. She brushed her hair and teeth and went to wake him up.

Lorelai: wakey wakey

Luke: what?

Lorelai: rise and shine

Luke: Lorelai?

Lorelai: time waits for nobody

Luke: not now!

Lorelai: well, didn't we wake up on the wrong side of the couch this morning?

Luke: I didn't sleep well ok

Lorelai: well I slept perfectly thank you. You know Luke you could have slept in the bed with me.

Luke: no, it wouldn't have felt right.

Lorelai: but having sex does?

Luke: but that's to make a baby

Lorelai: and a good nights rest ensures you have the energy to have the sex to make the baby.

Luke: I will have the energy, don't you worry. I just need to have a shower

Lorelai: can I join you?

Luke: no!

Lorelai: why?

Luke: cause… just because ok

Lorelai: Luke, we've seen each other naked already

Luke: it's not that

Lorelai: then what is it?

Luke: things weren't supposed to change between us. We were supposed to stay friends like we were before. And before all of this we did not sleep in the same bed or take showers together.

Lorelai: I guess you are right

Luke: ok, so I am going to take a shower alone and then we can try this baby thing again. We only have the next 2 days left, right?

Lorelai: yip, after tomorrow the egg will either be fertilized or will have left the building

Luke: jeez, don't say it like that

Lorelai: well, I could…. Whatever, just go have your shower and hurry up

Luke: make some tea while you wait

Lorelai: sure

After Luke had been gone for 10 minutes Lorelai started to become impatient. She was just about to walk into the bathroom to see what was holding him up when he came out.

Lorelai: what took you so long?

Luke: what, I showered and washed my hair and brushed my teeth, all these things add up, hence the 10 minutes in there.

Lorelai: well the teas cold now

Luke: I will just make some more then, you want

Lorelai: no thanks; one cup is too much already

They sat talking for a bit while Luke drank his tea. They had definitely not lost their ability to talk to each other. They were still able to openingly joke with each other, in private and in the diner. Luke took the last sip of his tea and put the cup in the sink. Without saying another word to her, he put out his hand. She accepted it and he led over to the bed. They continued to have sex multiple times on Saturday, only breaking for food and to go to the bathroom. Lorelai had slept over on Saturday and Luke insisted he still sleep on the couch. Their routine was pretty much the same for Sunday.

It was late on Sunday evening and Lorelai was lying in Luke's arms, playing with the small hairs on his chest.

Lorelai: so this is it

Luke: yeah, you think we got pregnant

Lorelai: I don't know, i've never really done the whole planned pregnancy thing before

Luke: so when do we find out?

Lorelai: well I could either wait two weeks to see if my period comes or I could go see the doctor at the end of the week and he can do the blood tests

Luke: I think the doctor is a good idea

Lorelai: so do I, I have already made an appointment for Friday lunchtime

Luke: but lunchtime is busy for me, I can't go

Lorelai: lunchtime is the only time I can go, and since i'm the one that has to be there.

Luke: I can't believe I won't be there when he says that you're pregnant

Lorelai: hey, I can try rescheduling the appointment and things at the inn.

Luke: no it's ok, whether I hear it from you or him the answer will still be the same

Lorelai: but I can….

Lorelai was interrupted by Luke kissing her

Luke: don't worry about it, ok?

Lorelai: ok, Luke?

Luke: yeah

Lorelai: if i'm not pregnant, do you want to try again or do you want to take it as a sign that we aren't meant to have a baby

Luke: I want a baby

Lorelai: but…

Luke: I want a baby no matter how long it takes

Lorelai: good, me too

Content with the answer she had gotten from Luke, Lorelai snuggled down, deeper in his embrace and closed her eyes.

Lorelai: I can't wait for Friday

Luke: me either

They soon fell asleep and stayed like that for several hours, until around 11pm Lorelai woke up. She got up slowly and dressed herself in the bathroom. She headed home shortly after that, but not before placing a soft kiss on Luke's forehead and writing him a little note that simply read 'thank you'

The week went by quickly. Lorelai had been very busy with the inn as well as busy trying to get hold of Rory. She hadn't spoken to her since last week Friday and she was worried. It wasn't like Rory to not return her phone calls or reply to her emails. But Lorelai put that in the back of her mind, today was an important day and nothing was going to change that. Lorelai entered Luke's for breakfast for the first time that week.

Lorelai: hey, the usual please

Luke: you might have to remind me what that was; it's been a while since you've been in here

Lorelai: yeah, sorry about that. The inn has been so busy this week; I haven't been able to do anything for myself. It was strange not seeing you this week.

Luke: well I guess we just got used to seeing more of each other

Lorelai: more, that's funny

Luke: ah jeez, Lorelai!

Lorelai: sorry. So can I get my pancakes now and my coffee?

Luke: decaf

Lorelai: of course

Luke: i'm proud, you've been good with the whole no coffee unless its decaf thing

Lorelai: yeah well I have a good reason.

Luke: so?

Lorelai; so?

Luke: you ready for this afternoon?

Lorelai: yeah I think so.

Luke: good

Lorelai: good

Luke left Lorelai's table and went and fetched her the decaf coffee and made her some pancakes. Once he had brought her breakfast to her, she ate it in the normal Lorelai style, and then headed off to the inn. Just before it was time to make her way to her appointment she received a call from Luke to wish her luck and one from Rory to check if she was going to be at Friday night dinner cause there was something they needed to talk about.

Lorelai told Rory she would see her there and made her way to the doctor, to hopefully get some good news.

Lorelai arrived just on time for the doctors. The nurse took her into the doctor's room and proceeded to take a blood sample. The doctor arrived and explained to Lorelai that some people do experience difficulty in becoming pregnant at her age as well as the fact that she had been on the pill for so long. He wanted to make sure she didn't have her hopes up too high. Lorelai waited around nervously for the results. When the finally came, she was a wreck.

Mid afternoon Luke could see Lorelai pull up in her jeep outside the diner. Her expression was unreadable; she had a deadpan expression that was neither happy nor sad. It wasn't until she reached inside the diner that he could see the answer in her eyes.

Thank you all that are still with me, I hope I don't disappoint you. I'm sorry that I left it where it is but I didn't want too much of the story to happen in one chapter. I know what i'm going to do with the story, I just need to spread it out nicely and this was about the same size as I normally do my chapters. Thanks again for reading and please review.
