References: The name of this chapter came to the same way the name of the story did (see chapter one for explanation of that) I was thinking what can I call this chapter, and then I though that now that Luke and Lorelai had met and the whole baby thing, that – things would never be the same again, and that is also lyrics to a Mel C (ex spice girl, I know it's sad that I know the song, but hey what can you do) But it's a good song and I think it explains this.
Here is the 2nd chapter, enjoy.
Chapter 2 – Never be the same again"So what about you any brothers or sisters?" she asked her finger tracing circles around his chest. His head rested on hers as he watched her trace circles.
" A sisters, Liz, she's a couple of years younger than me"
"That must be nice" she said, thinking about the fact she was an only child
"Yeah I guess, she can be a pain in the arse half the time but...she's my sister"
Luke and Lorelai had been sitting on the bench in the gazebo all night. Sometimes talking, sometimes just being. Her head rested at the top of his chest and his arm wrapped around her shoulder. An orange glow was visible over the tops of the buildings. She sighed contently and looked up into his eyes. He smiled down at her.
"It's either really late or really earlier" said Lorelai
"Yeah bit of both" he replied looking out over the town, it was just starting to come to life.
"We should…probably go…" she said looking down, she didn't really want to go.
"We could…or we could…" She looked up at him.
"You hungry?" he asked curiously
"Starving" she exclaimed
"Alright" he smiled at her, and grabbed a hold of her hand and pulled her up off the bench. She smiled and followed him.
They walked down the steps of the gazebo, a girl a couple of years older than them ran out from a side street towards them.
"Luke!" she called as she ran towards the pair.
"Liz?" she reached them panting
"Dad…wants…" she was out of breath from running
"Hey slow down" he said holding onto her hands, she stood for a minute and regained her breath
"Alright, Dad wants to know where you are I told him you stayed at Michael's place last night. And then I called Michael, by the way he hates me now for waking him up, anyway he said you just left last night and then I was worried and" she had started rambling Luke cut in.
"Liz its cool I'm fine, thanks for covering for me" he looked her in the eyes, she seemed to calm down a little.
"Ok, well I'm going to go now, but Dad I'll expect you home soon"
"Ok, thanks Liz"
"It's alright" and with that the young girl headed off again.
Luke turned back to face Lorelai
"So that was your sister" said Lorelai a smile playing at her lips
"Yeah that's Liz"
She nodded a little,
"So I guess breakfast is off then" she looked anxiously down at her hands.
"Oh yeah I suppose, I'll drive you home" he said disappointedly.
"Oh no you don't have to..." she started but he cut in.
"I'll drive you home" the tone of his voice making the statement final.
She gave him a grateful smile and the pair walked toward the car.
"Richard! She's been gone all night, god knows what's happened to her!" Emily exclaimed her arms flaying around, as she paced around the lounge room.
"Emily please calm down, she will be fine. Lorelai is a smart girl…"
"No! She wont come home I know it, stubborn girl, we have one fight.." Emily stops short as she hears the door to the Gilmore house creep open.
Luke pulled up into Lorelai's driveway, and stoped the car.
"Wow" he said tilting his head to see the house probably
"Yeah it's big" she said mimicking his words from last night, a cheeky smile on her lips.
Luke went to get out of the car and walk her to the door, but she put her hand on his arm to stop him.
"I'll be fine from here" she nodded knowingly. He sat back into his seat and looked at her. Her face suddenly looking mature, loosing the innocence and freedom he had seen in her at the gazebo.
"Goodbye Lorelai" he said softly, his eyes still intently focused on hers.
"Goodbye, and…Thank-you" their eyes locked in a warm smile, and with no hesitation she leaned forward and gave him a soft kiss on the lips. 1 kiss and then she turned open the door and got out of the car.
Luke sat in the driveway for a few minutes taking it all in, and then slowly he put his car into ignition and drove back to Stars Hollow. That girl never leaving his mind.
Lorelai creaked opened the door, hoping she could sneak in, run up stairs and no one would ever no she'd only just got home. But too late…
"Lorelai Gilmore!" her mother yelled walked purposely towards her. Oho
She pushed the door closed leaning against it slightly, in anticipation for a blasting from her mother.
"It's 7 o'clock in the morning! Where have you been? I demand to know where you were!" she practically yelled into Lorelai's face. Lorelai pushed past her mother and headed for the stairs. Emily continued yelling as she followed her daughter. Lorelai was now at the top of the stairs and she turned around to face her mother.
"Leave me alone!" she yelled into her mothers face, with all the power she could. Emily stood in slight shock at the outburst. Lorelai turned quickly and ran up to her room. Locking her door and collapsing on her bed. Tears streaming down her face. She had had such a wonderful night with Luke and then she comes home and this! I hate her! I hate her! She yelled into her pillow, tears still streaming down her face. After a little while she rolled over onto her back, the tears subsiding a little. She put her hand on her stomach. It's just you and me kid, you and me.
"Luke pass the toast" his father said gruffly across the breakfast table. Luk's eyes were glossed over as he stared out the window, his breakfast untouched.
"Luke!" he father said louder.
"What? Oh sorry" he said coming back to reality and passing the toast to his dad.
It had been 3 days since he'd dropped Lorelai off home. He wanted to see her again but they were a few things stoping him. One – she was this rich girl, she lived in a bloody palace, and he was just a guy from a small town. And two – he didn't know if she wanted to see him again, maybe it was just a one night thing. But he'd thought they'd had ….a connection, something special. He shook I head, trying to shake his thoughts of her out and picked up his spoon.
Lorelai was sprawled out across her bed watching TV, they was nothing much on, she was just channel surfing. She heard the phone ring down stairs, someone answer it and then footsteps coming closer and closer to her room.
"Miss Gilmore" she heard a maid call from outside her room.
"Yeah" she said, her eyes still focused on the TV. The maid let herself into the room
"The phone for you"
Lorelai nodded and reached up to beside her bed for the phone. The maid left her room.
"Hello?" she said, sitting up a bit.
"Hey! Lorelai!" It was Mitzy, she rolled her eyes and then focused her attention back on the phone.
"Hey Mitz" she replied with a double dose of fake enthusiasm.
"I just wanted to say how sorry I am! I just heard the news this morning" Lorelai's brow cringed in confusion. Did they know she was pregnant? They couldn't, she hadn't told anyone? Could they tell already? Her hand fell to her stomach. No.
"Mitzy what are you talking about?"
"About Christopher of course, him and the blonde at the party" Lorelai stiffened up. Chris, party, a girl. She sat in shock for a minute. Mitzy still talking on, she hadn't noticed Lorelai's silence. She was startled as she heard a knock at her window.
"Look Mitz I'm going to have to call you back. Bye" She hung up quickly and crossed the room to her balcony pulling open her curtains.
"Christopher" There he was on the other side of the window, grinning his charming smile at her. Reluctantly she opened the window. He climbed into her room and leaning in to give her a peck on the lips. Her expression stayed blank as she closed the window behind him.
"What do you want?" she asked, a blank unreadable expression on her face, hands on her hips. Look of confusion crossed Christopher's face. He walked towards her, trying to hold her hands, she pulled away.
"I wanted to see my girlfriend. What's up with you?"
"Oh I don't know, why don't you ask Blondie, I'm sure she'd be able to help you" she said sarcastically, pulling away from him and sitting sulkily on her bed. A pout across her face.
"Lor" he crossed the room to her.
"I'm sorry it was a stupid mistake, it didn't mean anything"
"Then why did you do it!" she exclaimed, hurt in her voice.
"I don't know" he looked down ashamed.
Lorelai sat an angry defiant look on her face.
"I'll just go then?" he said standing up.
She just sat there, staring straight ahead.
As Chris crossed the room he spotted something in her bin, he walked over to it.
What is he doing?
He picked up a rectangle shaped box and Lorelai froze when she realised what it was.
"Lorelai?" he asked turning to her, confused. She jumped off her bed and quickly crossed the room, trying to grab it off him, but he caught her arm.
"Are you pregnant?" She broke free of his grip and turned away from him. He pulled her back round to face him. Her eyes cast down.
"Lorelai"
"Yeah ok I am!" she exclaimed looking up at him.
He stood still trying to take it all in, forming the question she knew was coming.
"It's yours" she cut in first,
"Oh ok"
They stood there for a few minutes, both eyes cast down, taking in the reality that they 16 year olds Lorelai and Christopher, were going to be some kids parents. And more than anything thinking how in the world they were going to tell their own parents.
