Disclaimer: Gilmore Girls is not mine, however I do own Scott Patterson. (In my dreams!)
Dedications: To my Aunt Gina, at 4 she was in a car accident and now she isn't normal. She thinks like a four year old. She can't write words or speak well or read. I love her so much and I want to dedicate this to her.
A/N: I bet ya'll can't guess what this chapter is about. Just kidding. Right now I'm watching Malcolm in the Middle. It is so funny and Frankie Munez is super hot!
September, 10 days before Rory's birthday and 2 days after little Danes' due date.
No one in town knows about Lorelai being pregnant. It was very hard to keep silent. Only William, Mia, and Sookie knew. Lorelai stayed in the potting shed and Luke brought her food or cooked her dinner and ran her errands. He was a great fiancé and did everything she asked. And when Lorelai wanted crazy weird food at 1:00 in the morning he would run out and get it.
Around August people started to get suspicious as to why they never saw Lorelai out and about. Then when school started they wondered if something was up. Miss Patty started to sneak around, but never found out anything. When the baby was born they would tell the town.
"My damn feet." Lorelai yelled.
"What's wrong with your feet?" Luke asked coming into the shed with brown paper bags in his arms.
"They hurt."
"Well hon, you've got a baby in your belly."
"I know that, but I don't remember my feet hurting this bad with Rory."
"I don't know then." Luke sat the bags on the counter.
"What's that stuff?" Lorelai asked digging through the bags.
"Dinner." Luke said as he pulled out spaghetti and tomatoes.
"Woo. That looks really good."
"I thought you would want spaghetti tonight."
"I defiantly do."
"Go sit down, finish that book your reading and I'll tell you when dinner is ready."
"Okay." Lorelai headed towards the couch, when she felt something wet on her legs. "Oh my god. Luke. It's time."
"Time for...oh...okay um..." Luke runs over to Lorelai and helps her out to the truck. He runs back inside and grabs Rory. He then goes back to the truck and climbs in.
"Hello, how may I help you?"
"Hi. This is my..."
"I'm his wife." Lorelai buts in. "I'm having our baby NOW!" She screams.
"Okay calm down." The nurse tells her.
"Calm down? Calm down? Are you mad!" Lorelai yells. "I'm having a baby!"
"I can see that. Let me get you a room." The nurse fiddles with the phone. "Room 128. I'll take you guys there. Will there be anyone else joining you?"
"Yes. My father and our good friend Mia." Luke said as he followed the nurse who was wheeling Lorelai.
5 hours later.
"My god will this pain ever end!" Lorelai screamed into the small partly empty room.
"Lets have a looksy." The doctor takes a look then looks over at a nurse. "It's time for her to push."
"Lorelai, I am Gracie Wills I need you to breath in and when you breath out I want you to push as hard as you can." The nurse looks back over at the doctor who nods. "Ok breath in." Lorelai does so while screaming. "Now breath out and push." Lorelai breaths out and screams until she turns red.
"I see the head." The doctor says. "One more time."
"Ok Lorelai lets do it again." The nurse looks over at Luke who is getting his hand squeezed. "Breath in." Lorelai does so as she squeezes Luke's hand. "Breath out and push."
"Aaaaaaaahhhhhhh!" Lorelai yells as she pushes with all of her might.
They hear a baby cry.
"Congratulations, you have a healthy baby boy."
"Thank God." Lorelai says crying.
"I love you Lorelai."
"I love you too...aaaahhhh!" Lorelai screams again.
"What's wrong?" The doctor asks running back over to Lorelai.
"I aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Lorelai screams.
The doctor goes over and lifts up the sheet. "Oh my lord. You're having another baby."
"What?" Lorelai and Luke say in unison.
"It seems to be you're having twins." The doctor says putting on gloves. "Push!"
Lorelai does so and a baby's cry is again heard out through the room.
"In all my time of delivering babies, I have never had this happen and to be in 1987, it's just crazy."
"I wonder how the doctor who gave the sonogram didn't see the two."
"They were probably hiding each other." The doctor says as him and the nurse walk out of the room.
"We'll get your babies cleaned up then we'll let you see them." One nurse says.
"Thanks." Luke said as he bent down and kissed Lorelai. "You're a very strong woman."
"Well pushing a little person out of a very teeny hole is pretty tough."
"No matter what happens, you will always be the strongest lady I have ever met." Luke kissed her sweaty forehead. "And two, man that was just amazing."
"You're pretty amazing too." Lorelai says grinning despite her pain.
"How do you see that?"
"You wearing those fruity scrubs and letting me break your hand off."
"Well that's the price of love."
"Don't I know it."
"You want to know something?" Lorelai asks when Luke walks into the hospital room with a small glass of milk.
"What?"
"I hate these hospital gowns."
"You do?"
"Yea, they are itchy." Lorelai takes the glass from him. "And not just that it shows your butt when you stand up."
"Well wont that be a pretty sight." Luke says as he takes her hand and sits down in a chair.
Lorelai playfully slaps him. "Hey! I just birthed your children."
"And you did a great job."
"Your evil Danes, real evil."
Knock...knock...
"Come in." Luke calls.
In walks Mia and William.
"Hey sweetie." Mia says.
"Lorelai." William smiles.
"Hi guys." Lorelai replies smiling.
"How is he?" Mia asks.
"Oh...well he's a little tired, and his hand hurts, but oth..."
"Lorelai." Luke says forcefully.
"You mean William Richard Danes?"
"William?" William asks.
"Yea dad, we named him after both our fathers."
"My dad's name is Richard." Lorelai adds in.
"And our girl..."
"Girl?" both asked confused.
"Yea, we had twins."
"Twins." Mia says excited.
"Her name is Amelia Emily Danes."
"Why Amelia?" Mia asks.
"You're name is Amelia, right Mia?"
"Yes."
"We named her after you and my mother."
"Oh Lorelai." Mia leans down and hugs Lorelai. "You sweet sweet girl."
"Which ones are they?" William asks.
William, Mia, and Luke were standing at the window of the nursery. Luke points to two babies in the far right corner.
"Them over there."
"They look like you." Mia says.
"They do?" Luke asks smiling.
"Yea, they have Lorelai's eyes. That Gilmore blood, but the ears and that nose! That's the Danes."
"I guess they do." Luke say looking closer at his two beautiful children.
A/N: I like this chapter. I really do. Okay so there was that shocker. I knew no one would expect it. They have twins! I didn't want that either, but well I wanted a shocker and I guess I gave you one. How do you like their names? I think their kinda cute. Well read and review. Also, now that they have one of each, all of the ones that wanted them to have a boy got it, and all of the ones who wanted them to have a girl, they got it, and for all the rest who wanted twins, they got it. There you go!
