A/N: No way Jose!

Disclaimer: Again, me no own it.


Ever since Lorelai and Luke had gotten married, Lorelai and her parents were in alright terms. Alright being the key term. They had set up a dinner twice a week. On Sunday, the Gilmore's would come eat dinner with at the Danes'. And on Friday, the Danes' family would eat dinner at the Gilmore's. Tonight was the dreaded Friday Night Dinner.

Lorelai ran around the master bedroom, desperately trying to find something to wear. Luke fiddled with his tie as he watched his almost 6 month pregnant wife run around in her bra and underwear, not that he was complaining, 'cause he wasn't.

"Calm down Lorelai." Luke said brushing off the navy blue tie that Katie had gotten him for Father's Day. "We do this every week."

"I know, but today is different." Lorelai said throwing yet another item of clothing on the bed. "I have to tell them the sex of the babies."

"It's not a huge deal Lorelai." Luke replied looking through the pile of clothes on the bed for his hair brush. "You've told them what Katie was, and they took it fine."

"I know, but I just want them to...I don't know why I'm so worried, maybe because Rory called and said she had some big news, I don't know."

"Calm down. Anything you wear will look great." Luke said finally finding the hair brush and starting to brush through his hair.

"I'm calm." Lorelai took a deep breath. "I'm calm."

"Good, now I'm going to go check on the kids, you find something to wear, put it on and be downstairs in fifteen minutes."

"Yes sir." Lorelai said saluting Luke.

"Ah jeez." He leaned inand kissed her lips. "Fifteen minutes." He mumbled against her lips then started out the door.

Lorelai stuck her tongue out.

"I see that."

Luke walked down the stairs and looked around. The house had changed so much over the years. When Lorelai and Luke got married, right before Katie was born, they had, had Tom add an extra wing to the house. Complete with a room for Kaleb, a nursery, a guest room, and a bathroom. Then after being married and having Katie, they decided to add on to the master bedroom and make a bathroom attached. Then when Katie turned two they painted the inside and outside. The only thing that had stayed the same, and was not changed was the little room off the kitchen. Rory's old room would not be touched. Lorelai wanted it the same way Rory left it. No one was aloud in it without permission, and when just Rory came to visit she would sleep in there. Luke abided to the rule. He knew it was one memory Lorelai didn't want thrown away.

Luke walked through the livingroom and into the "new" wing of the house. He walked down the short hall and into Kaleb's room.

"You ready to go see grandma and grandpa?" Luke asked his eight year old son.

"Yea." Kaleb called keeping his eyes on the Tv.

Luke turned around and went inside the pink room next to him.

"Princess?" Luke called opening the door. He looked around and didn't see his little girl. "Where are you?"

"In here." Katie called walking out of her closet. "Look daddy I dressed me."

Luke looked down at Katie and saw that her dress was turned backwards and her black mary janes were on the wrong feet.

"You did good Princess, but..." Luke pulled the dress around to the right side and then switched her shoes. "..that makes it better."

Katie smiled up at her daddy and wrapped her tiny arms around his neck. "I love you daddy."

"I love you too." Luke replied hugging the small girl to him. "Now you're ready to go see grandpa and grandma."

"Yea." Katie smiled pulling away from her daddy and running over to her bed. She pulled herself onto the bed and reached over to the night stand. Then she slipped back off the bed and over to Luke with something in her hand. "Here daddy." She reached out and opened his large hand and sat a penny into it.

"What's this Princess?"

"A lucky penny."

"It is?"

"Uh huh." Katie nodded her head. "Mommy gave it to me, and told me this penny that gave her luck."

"It did? What luck did it give her?" Luke asked looking at the penny, he noticed it had the year 1996 on it.

"You." Katie stated simply.

"Me?"

"Mommy say you gave her this penny first met you."

Luke remembered back to that day. She had just gave him the horoscope and he gave her the coffee. She payed for it and gave a penny more than what she was supposed to. So he took a penny out of his pocket and handed it to her. She told him to keep it, after all she did bug him. He said no to just take the penny, or she would be annoying him more. She did and left, coming back the very next day.

"Yea, 1996." Luke mumbled. He took the penny and handed it back to Katie. "Now you keep it." He ruffled her hair. "We'll leave as soon as mommy is ready."

"Okey Dokey." Katie replied running over to the night stand and slipping the penny on it.

Luke replied to the little girl. "Okey Dokey."


"Can someone please ring the doorbell?" Rory asked Logan and Lorie.

"Rory just ring the doorbell." Logan replied holding Lorie close to him.

"Fine." Rory took a deep breath and rang the doorbell.

"Come in. Come in." Emily smiled opening the door a few minutes later. "You all look nice tonight." Emily said ushering the three inside. "Is this a special occasion?"

Panic went across her face. "No, why would you say that?"

"You three are just so dressed up."

"Oh, well.."

"Lorelai, Luke and the kids are in the livingroom." Emily said prancing into the livingroom. "Look who's here!"

"Rory!" Katie yelled jumping up from the couch and running to Rory.

"Hey Katie Couric."

"What have I told you about calling her Katie Couric?" Lorelai said standing up, with the help of Luke.

"I don't know." Rory smiled at her mother. "Hey mom."

"Hey Lorelai the third." Lorelai smiled. "And where's the fourth?"

"Nannie!" Lorie yelled reaching for Lorelai. "Nannie!"

Logan handed Lorie over to Lorelai.

"Well hello Lorelai."

Lorie laughed at her grandmother.

"Let's see you're the fourth and your four."

"He he he." Lorie laughed. "Almost five."

"I missed you pumpkin."

"Miss you too." Lorie replied snuggling into Lorelais' chest.

"Why don't we all sit down?" Emily offered.

After a few minutes of getting organized all were seated where they belonged. Lorelai and Luke on one couch with Lorie in Luke's lap. Rory and Logan on the other couch with Kaleb next to them on the floor. Emily and Richard sitting in the two chairs next to the fireplace, and Katie asleep in Richard's lap.

"So Lorelai." Emily began. "You have some big news for us?"

Rory jumped. Everyone looked at her. "Oh sorry, got a chill."

"Yes mom, I do." Lorelai looked at Rory questionably and turned to her mother. "We know the sex of the babies."

"Oh that's great Lorelai." Emily smiled.

"That is wonderful Lorelai. What are they?" Richard piped in.

"Well, okay. The doctor has told us two things." Lorelai paused and looked around the room. "The first thing is that more than likely they will be identical twins."

"That's fantastic." Richard said.

"I guess." Lorelai smiled. "I just hope I can tell them apart."

"I'm sure you will."

"And what the sex was."

"What are they."

"One's a boy."

"A boy!" Rory smiled looking over at her mother. So badly she wanted toget up and hug her mother. "Mom a boy."

"I'm excited, but not as much as Luke."

"Why is that Luke?" Rory asked.

"When Luke got to know Kaleb, he was already four, and he missed out on the first years, he wanted to make up for it."

"How sweet." Rory smiled hoping to embarrass Luke. "What's the other one?"

"It's a...it's a..."

"It's a...what Lorelai?" Emily asked getting fed up with her daughter's hanging on.

"A girl!" Lorelai smiled.

"One of each!" Rory screamed jumping up and running over to her mother who was now standing up. They hugged and jumped around the best they could due to her mother's large stomach.

"I understand that they're happy, but what's with the jumping?"

Lorelai and Rory didn't stop. They just kept jumping around and screaming.

"Funny, isn't it?" Lorelai mumbled into her daughter's ear.

"Very."


A/N: Do you know why it's funny? I want you to think about it then tell me what you think. When I was writing this part where they were jumping up and down, that reminded me when Rory and Lorelai were at the Gilmore's eating dinner and Lorelai called Max and said yes and then Lorelai came back into the diningroom and Lorelai nodded yes and they jumped up and down together. Then I started thinking about the series finale of GG. What they're going to do? Will they have flash backs from other seasons? I'm going to miss this show so much. It has been a big part of my life. I know that sounds stupid and everything, but when you have things going wrong in your life and you need an outlet you need something. And that's what Gilmore Girls is. It's one hour a week that makes my life seem happy and makes me laugh. Lol. Anyways, sorry for that long speech there. Read and Review. And thanks to all the sweet reviews!
