Chapter 14: Motivation Explanations
Previously:
"Luke," she paused. "I'm pregnant." she let out.
--------------------
Luke just sat there in shock. She's pregnant? She's pregnant? He thought.
"When…when did this happen?" he asked quietly.
"Probably the other night, but I don't know the exact date. As a matter of fact, if I did, then that would be amazing. Maybe I could win the lottery with that power." she joked. Great! So now this is a topic for humor and joking! Just wonderful. Lorelai thought.
"Are you sure?" he asked. If I'm going to get excited, it better not be for nothing. Wait, I'm excited?
"Yah, well, not one hundred percent, but you know the pretty little test I took last night said I am." she joked again.
"So you took a test last night?" he asked. He wanted to get everything straight in his head.
"Yep." she answered.
"How long have you known?" he asked, looking her straight in the eyes.
"Since Sniffy's last night. Listen Luke, I'm so, so, so sorry. I am sorry I didn't tell you sooner. I just didn't want to tell you until I was absolutely sure and--" she started to babble but was interrupted by Luke.
"So, the thing at Sniffy's, the not eating, the phone call, the throwing up at Sookie's--"
"Was pregnancy stuff." she finished for him.
"Wow. I'm sorry about that.Last nightI mean." he apologized. "And this morning." Luke added.
"It's ok. You were right, you were just worried. I'm sorry I flipped out. At least now I can blame it on the spiking hormone levels in my body." she joked. Luke smiled.
"I'm going to be a father." he whispered.
"Again." she added. Luke smiled and Lorelai gave him a peck on the lips.
"So what happened at your parents' house then?" he asked.
"Ah." she groaned. "Well, at first I decided to have water instead of alcohol, and my mother asked what was wrong. I told her I was driving home or something, then when dinner came around. She saw me picking at my food--" Luke gave Lorelai a look that said 'see!-I'm-not-the-only-one!' "So she then she put two and two together and--"
"Oh god." Luke added. Lorelai smiled.
"Exactly. So she started theorizing that you weren't there because you ran when I told you about being pregnant, and when I said that I didn't even tell you, she said that I was running, and then she started telling me that the whole 'you not being there when I was pregnant for Jake' thing was solely my fault!" Luke looked at her. This had been a sore spot in their conversations so far. "I just couldn't take it. So I got up to leave and then RORY follows me. She starts trying to tell me that I should just come back here and make up with you, and that everything is all my fault. She accused me of trying to avoid telling you about being pregnant all together! Like I was going to hide it until I had the kid! She was just so harsh, and it hurt. It hurt me Luke. You know that you are the only one that can truly hurt me--" when she got a confused look from Luke, she tried to clarify. "Because you know me so well, you know my weak spots, my buttons. all of them, might I add," she smiled seductively at Luke who just smiled and looked down at his feet. " So when she said that, it hit me, Rory can truly hurt me. She can, and I hate to admit it, but I couldn't be wonder woman anymore, so I just left to come find the one person who is always there in these situations." she said as Luke looked up. "You."
"What a night." he commented with a smile on his face.
"Yes. As are all of the Gilmore encounters. I think we are one on the best rated shows on televisions." she joked.
"Most definitely." Luke commented as he kissed her.
"So, Luke's a daddy, again, I won't be speaking to my mother for another trillion years, Rory is spending some quality time with your first born, what are you going to do now?" she asked. She put on her seductive smile again.
"Is claiming my prize one of the choices?" he asked.
"Always." she whispered. He leaned in and started kissing her. He wrapped his arm around her waist and the other one he placed on the back of her head. As always, both of Lorelai's hands were playing with the curls of Luke's hair.
"Lorelai Hunny? Is that you?" they both pulled apart as they heard the raspy voice of Babette behind them.
"Yes Babette, it's me." Lorelai yelled. "wonderful timing, don't you think?" she asked Luke sarcastically.
"Oh, well I--did I interrupt something?" Babette asked as she noticed that Luke and Lorelai were in a very odd position for just talking.
"No Babette." Lorelai answered.
"Yes you did. " Luke added.
"Oh Luke, you can wait." she said swatting his chest.
"Fine, well, I'll just get these bags inside." he gestured towards the bags full of groceries.
"Ok, I'll be there in a sec hun." she told him as she quickly pecked him on the lips and then walked over to Babette.
Luke grabbed the bags and proceeded to enter the house. He walked into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. As he was putting the milk and eggs away, Lorelai walked into the house.
"Hey. You didn't check the messages." she shouted so Luke could hear her.
"I thought that I wasn't allowed to!" he shouted back remembering the rule that he had been give.
"Oh, that." she said to herself. She pressed the button and immediately heard her mother's voice.
"Lorelai, it is very rude for you to walk out like that! You left Jacob here and now Rory has to take him home! What has gotten into you? It can't be those pregnancy hormones because--" beep! "Message has been deleted." the answering machine said.
"Ah," Lorelai sighed. "Music to my ears." she smiled as she walked into the kitchen. She snaked her arms around Luke's waist, causing him to drop the box of pop tarts he was holding in his hand. "You dropped my wonderful pop tarts! How could you Luke? How could you?" she asked as she dramatically flailed her arms in the air.
"well see it was easy, let go, and then let gravity do its job." he commented as he bent down to pick up the dropped box.
"you're mean! poor pop tarts! They probably have shaken baby syndrome now!" she complained as she grabbed the box from Luke and started to cradle it in her arms.
"and the pop tarts are living now?" he asked skeptically.
" when were they not? How dare you Lucas! How dare you insult the poor pop tarts! All they have done is feed me and keep me alive for the past years and all you can do is insult them?" she asked in false disbelief.
"Yes." he simply responded.
"Hey!" Lorelai screamed as she saw Luke try and throw her coffee out. She dropped the pop tart box and rushed over to the trash. She grabbed the can before Luke could even react.
"Lorelai, you can't have the coffee anyways!" he commented as he tried to grab it from her grasp. She turned her back to him to protect her precious love.
"What are you talking about? I can too! I did with Rory, and I did with Jake! Two out of two! Both are normal children and will grow up to lead average and fulfilling lives!" she argues as she deflected his attempts to take the can again.
"No coffee! Lorelai! I mean it!" he tried to show her that he would not budge on this subject.
"Lucas Danes! You will not, and will never have the ability to limit my coffee intake!"
"Lorelai, give me the coffee." he demanded.
"Never! My coffee!" she shouted as she ran into the living room. Luke walked briskly after her.
"Lorelai, just give me the coffee." He said sternly.
"No! I shall never give in!" she said as she ran around the house with Luke chasing her.
