Hey everyone, I'm back with the next chapter. Not much happens in it but its necessary to set up for some of the following chapters. Please keep in mind that I was very sick when I wrote this and just a friendly warning I haven't checked the spelling or grammar so please don't shoot me. I promise I will try harder next time; I just didn't want to keep you waiting to long.

Disclaimer: being sick still doesn't make it mine

The past week had been a busy and trying time for both Luke and Lorelai. The had expected the town to react and more than likely be happy about the arrival of a new baby in town but the town far exceeded their expectations. Conversations were on the go 24/7. The town continued to bug them about the fact that they were not in a relationship. Lorelai shrugged it off as part of the small town charm but Luke became more and more irritated. Lorelai hadn't seen him this intense since…. Since well ever.

Lorelai took it upon herself to try and take Luke's mind off the town so she organised for Lane and Caesar to look after the diner and she invited Luke to spend the evening at home with her, Just the two of them. He had agreed easily and brought the food and movies for them to enjoy. Lorelai still had trouble keeping food down and was still disgusted by red meats. Luke took advantage of this and made her each healthy food with him.

They were curled up on the couch ready to begin the movie. Each started off by lying on their own side of the couch, but by the time they were ready to start the second movie Lorelai had moved closer to Luke.

Luke: Lorelai?

Lorelai: Yeah?

Luke: I'm going to go visit my sister for a while.

Lorelai: Oh ok, how long?

Luke: 2 weeks, maybe a bit more

Lorelai: Oh, well enjoy

Lorelai was a bit shocked as the first thing that popped in her mind was that she was going to have to go to a doctor's appointment on her own.

Luke: Lorelai?

Lorelai: What!

Luke: Please don't be upset with me. They need my help, I need to get away, and I always wanted to tell her about the pregnancy in person. You know that.

Lorelai: Yeah I do, I just thought that you would go up to Maine for a day or two. Not 2 weeks. Anyway, what do you mean they need your help?

Luke: They have this new important spot at the Renaissance faire but are afraid that they wont be done with their work before the big opening and are scared that they will lose the spot so they asked if I would come to Maine and help. I said yes cause I didn't think you would mind and I could use a break from the town for a while.

Lorelai: You can go wherever you want. We aren't married

Luke: Then why are you upset?

Lorelai: I'm not

Luke: Lorelai! I have known you for 9 years. I know when you are upset about something

Lorelai: I guess I am a little

Luke: Why?

Lorelai: Cause I didn't want to have to go to the doctors appointment on my own

Luke: Oh

Lorelai: Its ok, I will show you the picture when you get back and it will be as if you were there

Luke: I don't want to miss the appointment. I forgot it was coming up

Lorelai: Its fine Luke, there will be other appointments

Luke: Yeah but I didn't want to miss any. Can't you reschedule?

Lorelai: The doctor is pretty booked; I had to book this appointment when we were there last time

Luke: Oh

Lorelai: I will try in the morning though

Luke: Thanks

Lorelai: So when you leaving?

Luke: Either tonight or early in the morning

Lorelai: Ok, do you have time for another movie?

Luke: Yeah, put it on

Lorelai pushed play and snuggled up to Luke. Luke loved when she curled up in his embrace, he felt happy when he could hold the mother of his child. Luke brought his right arm around her shoulders and draped the other across her stomach. He slowly traced patterns around her belly button while they sat in silence and enjoyed the movie.

As the movie was drawing to a close he realised that Lorelai had drifted off to sleep. He tried to get up without waking her but he wasn't successful.

Lorelai: Hmm

Luke: Sorry

Lorelai: What are you doing, I was watching the movie.

Luke: Its finished

Lorelai: Oh, sorry

Luke: Its ok, I got to watch the ending in peace and quite

Lorelai: Hey! I did not speak through the movie

Luke: You certainly did. I have never known you not to so I wasn't surprised.

Luke started to clear the dishes and take out boxes

Lorelai: Are you leaving?

Luke: Yeah, I better get going and leave you to sleep

Lorelai: No, stay with me for I while

Luke: We've watched both the movies

Lorelai: I know but we could talk and listen to music

Luke: Fine

Lorelai: Wow Luke don't sound too excited, you might kill over

Luke: Sorry, I would love to sit here and talk. Let me just finish putting this stuff in the kitchen

Lorelai got up off the couch and made her way to the radio. She flipped it on to the first channel she could find and heard a familiar song playing. She started singing and swaying to the music. She didn't hear Luke come back into the room. He stood in the archway watching her dance. When she spun around and saw him she stopped

Lorelai: What?

Luke: Nothing

Lorelai: Don't just stand there, come dance with me

Luke: No!

Lorelai: Oh come on, for me. For your baby

Luke: Lorelai!

Lorelai bent over and pretended to listen to the baby talk

Lorelai: Daddy he says get you but over here and dance with his mommy. Come please I love this song

Luke walked over to her and pulled her close to him.

Luke: Better?

Lorelai: Yeah

Lorelai smiled as she placed her head on his shoulder and they swayed to the music. When the chorus came on Lorelai lifted her head and stared into Luke's eyes. She challenged him with the words.

Look me in the eye and tell me you don't find me attractive
Look me in the heart and tell me you won't go
Look me in the eye and promise no love's like our love
Look me in the heart and un break broken, it won't happen

He looked away quickly, trying not to give anything away. When Lorelai was done, having her fun, she put her head back down and they continued to sway. When the song came to an end, the next song came on. Neither of them recognised it so they returned to the couch. Once again, Lorelai snuggled up to Luke. They had definitely become comfortable around each other.

Lorelai: So have you given any more thought to the name now that we know we are having a boy?

Luke: Well, I like Nicholas

Lorelai: Sorry but I have final say and there is now way I am naming him Nicholas

Luke: Why not?

Lorelai: I have a bad story attached to that name

Luke: Oh, so what names have you thought of?

Lorelai: I know you….

Luke: Lorelai!

Lorelai: Luke just hear me out. I really think it would be nice to name him William after your father

Luke: I told you no. I don't need a constant reminder of my father every time I look at my son

Lorelai: But…

Luke: Drop it

Lorelai: Fine. Well I have no other names

Luke: Fine

After a few moments of a slightly awkward silence, Lorelai decided to speak again.

Lorelai: I'm sorry

Luke: For what?

Lorelai: For pushing you about the name. We will know what to call him when we look at him

Luke: Its ok, I should get going

Luke lent in to give Lorelai a kiss on the forehead but she looked up and captured his lips with hers. Their lips lingered on each other's for a moment. As Luke was about to pull back, Lorelai opened her mouth and deepened the kiss. Passion took over as Luke pulled Lorelai tight against his body. Kissing her hard. They both jumped apart when they heard the front door close. Lorelai looked up and saw Rory standing in the doorway

Rory: Sorry am I interrupting

Lorelai: No it's fine. This is a nice surprise

Rory: Yeah well I haven't seen you in a while and I need to do my laundry

Lorelai: Well the washer should be free. If there are any clothes in there just chuck them in the basket for me

Rory: Sure

As Rory walked back through the kitchen Lorelai turned to Luke with a smile on her face. He started to lean in to kiss her again when Rory returned.

Rory: You don't have any washing powder

Lorelai: Its upstairs

Rory: And what's it doing up there

Lorelai: Having a tea party with the bath salts

Rory made her way upstairs as Luke got up and headed to the front door

Luke: I better get going

Lorelai: Ok

Luke: I will see you in 2 weeks

Lorelai: 2 weeks

Luke: Let me know what is happening with the doctor's appointment and if anything happens with the baby, I want you to call me. Ok?

Lorelai: Of course

Luke: You promise?

Lorelai: I promise

Luke opened the door to leave but before he stepped a foot out he whipped around and placed a soft kiss on Lorelai's lips.

Luke: Keep safe

Lorelai: I will. Thanks for coming tonight Luke

Luke: Well thanks for having me

Luke got in his truck and drove off leaving Lorelai with mixed emotions about how she felt. She went back inside and found Rory sitting on the stairs smiling,

Rory: You too are so cute. I wish you would just be a couple already

Lorelai: Rory!

Rory: Sorry, sensitive subject. I know

Lorelai: Go put your wash on and then come back and talk to your favourite mother

The two Gilmore girls and spent the next few hours catching up and reminiscing. They went to bed late that night but it was all worth it.

Sorry I know that is a strange place to leave the story but I needed to for the sake of the next chapter which I hope will be better written than this one. Please review and tell me what you think. I live for the reviews and miss them when the stop.

Thanks again

PS. sorry I only realised now that I didn't mention what song it was. The song that would have been playing while they danced was Tegan and Sara with 'where does the good go'
