"Hey,
what do you want?"
"Mmm, coffee pancakes with apples and some
grapefruit" she said thinking of her father.
"Apples and grapefruit? Are you feeling ok?"
"Well, this morning I was feeling really cruddy, but now I guess I'm ok. Or maybe not since I'm eating fruit." She said, and all of a sudden got a panicked look on her face and she was white as a ghost.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
"Hello"
"Hi Hun."
"Oh, hey Mom, What's up?"
"Ithinkimpregnant" she said in one breath.
"WHAT?"
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
"RORY! How can you be so calm, I could be pregnant and you're being all nonchalant, is that the right word?
"Yes and I will get you a test here and you can take it at home okay?"
"Okay, Rory, thank you."
"Sure, relax. And even if you are, it would it be so bad. I mean it's Luke"
"Yeah, I know, but I was hoping to get married and still be thin."
"Well, maybe your not even-"
"Yeah, maybe" she said stretching it out."
She was patiently waiting for Rory to get home with the test. It was killing her. She wanted nothing more than to have Luke's child, but she wanted to do it right this time. She wanted to get married, and then have a baby. Emily and Richard were running through her mind the entire time she was waiting for Rory. "You're pregnant again and you aren't even married. Well done Lorelai." She couldn't stand them. Then right behind her parents was Luke. She had no doubt that he would be happy, but would he want it right now? He just found out that he has a daughter, he would want to get to know her more right? Her thought were interrupted by headlights in the driveway. She was praying that it was Rory and not Luke. She wasn't ready to tell him. Not yet. She heard a car door close and waited. Then the front door opened.
"Moooooom I'm home" Rory yelled.
She practically ran to the door.
"Rory, thank god" she said hugging her.
"Are you ok?" she asked
"NO, I am a total wreck. Ok, let's get this over with." She said taking the bag
"After you" Rory said.
The next 15 minutes were the most painful minutes of Lorelai's life. She was having a full blown war inside herself.
Its Luke, that's good.
"I'm not even married"
"You love him"
"I'll look fat for my wedding"
The timer went off. This was it. Her legs were like jello. She wasn't sure how she was still on two feet. She opened the door and looked at the sink.
Pregnant.
There it was, plain as day. She was pregnant with Luke's child. She felt emotionless.
Rory walked in.
"Well, what's the verdict?"
"How do you feel about being a big sister?" she said, and to her surprise she had a smile dancing on her lips.
"AHHHHHHHHHH" Rory screamed and ran to hug her.
Then they did there patented Gilmore dance.
"We have to go tell Luke" Rory said
Luke.
She had forgotten about Luke.
"Yeah, Luke" she said with some disappointment.
"Mom, relax, he will be fine with it."
"Ok. Let's go" and they linked arms and walked to Luke's.
When they got there, there was no one in the diner.
"Huh, no one. This is insane" Rory said
Luke came out of the back and saw the two of them.
"Hey you two" he said walking around the counter to kiss Lorelai
"Can I talk to you" Lorelai said
Luke's expression dropped.
"Sure, uh, what's wrong?"
"I'm pregnant." She said emotionless
He stood there shocked.
"Wh-what?'
"I am pregnant with your child"
He kissed her harder than he ever had before.
"Does this mean you're happy?" she asked
He just kissed her again.
"I'll take that as a yes." She said.
"Yes, I am thrilled." Luke said.
"Good"
"I can't wait to tell April" he said.
"Yeah, I'm sure she will be thrilled" Rory said with a hint of sarcasm in her voice.
But the two just bypassed it and continued to discuss their little baby Danes.
Rory on the other hand sat their silently. She had been in April shoes three years ago. Her father had come to her and told her he was having a baby with some loser other person. She wasn't happy. And she had a feeling that April wouldn't be as happy as her mom and Luke.
"So," Luke said. "When should we tell her?"
"Whenever you want hun, it's up to you"
"Ok, how about tomorrow. We can surprise her, and you can meet her for real, you too Rory"
"Ok, sounds good too me"
"Me too" Rory said.
The next morning…
"Lorelai are you ready yet?" Luke said looking at Rory and rolling his eyes.
"I think I'm starting to show!" she yelled from upstairs.
"I think you're insane!" Rory responded.
"Gimme 5 more minutes" she yelled again
"Hey, Luke can I ask you something?" Rory asked
"Shoot"
"Ok, well, as you know you have been more like a dad to me than Christopher ever was, and I was wondering… if…I could call you dad."
He was shocked.
"I would want nothing more" he said smiling and giving her a hug.
"Me neither." She said also smiling.
"Okay, I'm ready" Lorelai said coming down the stairs and looking at the two of them "What did I miss?" she asked.
"Oh, nothing, let's go" Luke said
The drive to April's was full of conversation about the baby of course.
"Its going to be a girl, I can tell" Rory said
"How can you tell?" Luke asked
"Cause, it's in the genes"
"Right" he said with a 'duh' expression. "Well, we're here."
"Let's go" Lorelai said
"Yeah, lets go dad" Rory said.
"Wait a minute…dad?" Lorelai asked
"Well, Luke has been there way more than Christopher has and well, I asked him when you were getting ready if I could call him dad and he said yes" She said.
"Oh, okay, good" Lorelai said.
"Can we go in now?" Luke asked
"Yeah"
Luke knocked on the door and they all waited.
Anna opened the door.
"Luke! And friends, come in"
"Hey Anna." He said as they all walked in.
"Anna this is my fiancé Lorelai and my uh, daughter Rory"
"Daughter? Fiancé? Nice to meet you both." She said a bit shocked
"Yeah, uh, is April around?"
"Yeah, she's upstairs, lemme go get her."
"Ok" Luke said
Rory grabbed is arm, "Thanks Dad"
April came running down the steps.
"Hi dad and…"
"April, this is my fiancé Lorelai and my daughter Rory."
"Nice to meet you" April said.
"You too" Rory and Lorelai said in unison.
"Let's sit, shall we?" Luke asked
"Yes please" Lorelai said.
"April, have to tell you something."
"I'm listening" she said.
"Lorelai is going to have a baby, so you are going to be a big sister." He said waiting for her reaction.
She said nothing, just ran upstairs. Luke looked at Lorelai and then Rory, and went upstairs to talk to his daughter.
