There is a lot of time skipped in this chapter and the next chapter is going to skip another month. I know I rushed a lot of stuff in this chapter but it will slow down, trust me. The thing is I ran out of major plots so in order to get to the one that I've decided to do, the time skipping was necessary.
Five months later.
Luke and Lorelai were lying on their bed.
"Lorelai" Luke said.
"What?" Lorelai asked.
"You're pregnant" Luke said.
"What?" Lorelai asked sitting up surprised.
"I just have this feeling" Luke said. "Are you?"
"I don't know" Lorelai said. "I'll get a test in the morning, but not from Stars Hollow or else we'll be the center of every single rumor"
"Fine" Luke said.
He turned off the light. A few minutes later Lorelai got up.
"Where are you going?" Luke asked.
"To Hartford" Lorelai said.
"Why?" Luke asked.
"I have to know" Lorelai said.
Luke smiled.
"I'll drive" Luke said. "Rory's still up, right?"
"Probably" Lorelai said.
They quickly got dressed and went downstairs.
"Weren't you two going to bed?" Rory asked.
"We just remembered that we have to pick something up" Lorelai said. "Will you watch Izzy for an hour? She's asleep so technically you're not watching her"
"Okay" Rory said a little confused.
Lorelai and Luke drove to Hartford to the pharmacy.
"I can't wait until we get back to the house" Lorelai said. "I'm taking it here"
"Are you allowed to?" Luke asked.
"Last I knew it wasn't outlawed to take a pregnancy test in a bathroom" Lorelai said.
She took the pregnancy test into the bathroom. Five minutes later she came out with grin on her face.
"You're pregnant?" Luke asked excited.
Lorelai nodded. Luke hugged her and Lorelai laughed. People stared at them.
"Let's celebrate at home" Luke said noticing the manager's unhappy face looking at them.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Four months later.
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear Izzy. Happy birthday to you" everyone sung.
Sookie placed a tiny cake in front of Izzy.
"Be careful" Lorelai said. "Don't catch her hair on fire"
Lorelai was referring to Sookie's previous incident in the kitchen that morning when she had a little bit of her hair catch on fire.
"Make a wish Izzy" Rory said.
"Personally" Lorelai said. "Since I think the birthday girl is too young to make a wish. The woman who she caused to give birth to her in a snowstorm, without drugs, may I add, should get to make the wish"
"You just want to blow out the candle" Luke said.
"I'm insulted that you would think that" Lorelai said innocently.
"Go ahead and blow it out" Luke said.
Lorelai blew out the candle.
"Who wants cake?" Sookie asked.
Soon laughter and talking filled the room again. Lorelai took the candle out of the cake.
"Go at it girl" Rory said.
"She is not eating that entire cake" Luke said.
"It's her birthday" Lorelai said. "She can do anything she wants"
"Do you know what that's doing to her insides" Luke said.
"Do tell me" Lorelai said sarcastically.
Luke started one of his rants. Lorelai went over and kissed him passionately. Everyone got quiet.
"It's the only way to get him to shut up" Lorelai said smiling.
Everyone laughed.
"Mom, you might want to get a picture of this" Rory said looking at Izzy.
Izzy had taken the cake and smashed her face into it. Lorelai and Luke started laughing.
"She is exactly like you" Luke said laughing.
Lorelai grabbed a camera and took a picture.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
The next day.
"She's very persistent with learning to walk" Rory said, watching as Izzy grabbed on to the couch and stood up.
"So were you" Lorelai said. "But you walked and then you fell flat on your face"
Rory laughed. Izzy let go of the couch and started walking.
"Oh, she's doing it" Lorelai said excited. "Luke, get in here!"
"What's wrong?" Luke asked worried.
He walked into the living room.
"She's walking, Izzy's walking" Luke said excitedly. "Izzy, come to Daddy"
Izzy toddled over to Luke and grabbed on to his leg. Luke picked her up and threw her in the air. Izzy squealed in delight.
"Now if only I can get her to say momma" Lorelai said. "And then I'll win that ten bucks"
"She's going to say dada" Luke said. "Face it"
"What if she says Rory or sissy" Rory said. "Then do I get the ten dollars"
"No, then you just get smacked in the head cause you took away your mom's chances on getting ten bucks from Luke" Lorelai said.
"Hey" Rory said. "I'm siding with Dad then"
"Hey, I gave birth to you, I carried you for nine months and then spent an entire day in labor" Lorelai said. "You should be siding with me"
"He's nicer" Rory said smiling, going over to Luke.
"My own daughter has betrayed me" Lorelai said dramatically, putting her hand to her forehead.
Izzy laughed.
"And now my other daughter is laughing at me" Lorelai said. "Whoa, I just thought of something. You better hope this baby is a boy or you're going to be stuck with four Gilmore girls"
"I'm praying every night" Luke said smiling.
"Just imagine" Lorelai said. "Little baseball hats and flannel shirts"
"No" Luke said. "You are not dressing my son up like me"
"Just wait" Lorelai said.
Luke set Isabel back on the floor. She toddled into the kitchen.
"Okay, suddenly this walking thing isn't so cute" Lorelai said.
She hurried into the kitchen and brought Izzy back into the living room.
"I have to go over to Lane's" Rory said.
"Well that's okay" Lorelai said. "Isabel has to go down for a nap anyway"
"I'll see you later" Rory said.
She put her coat on and went to Lane's.
"I'll go put Izzy in her crib and then we can have alone time" Lorelai said seductively.
A few minutes later she came back downstairs.
"Guess what" Lorelai said.
"What?" Luke asked.
"You know the whole point of me saying guess what, is for you to actually guess" Lorelai said.
"I don't want to guess" Luke complained.
"Geez, someone's whiny" Lorelai said.
"Just tell me what you were going to say" Luke said.
"I can't wait until we have this baby" Lorelai said excitedly. "The tiny little baby clothes"
"The waking up at three in the morning" Luke added.
"The first time she smiles"
"Twice the dirty diapers"
"The constant smell of baby powder" Lorelai kept going.
"The spitting up" Luke said.
"You're excited about this baby, just admit it" Lorelai said.
Luke smiled.
"I really am" Luke said. "The first time I hold her in my arms…"
"Her?" Lorelai asked.
"Or him" Luke said.
"You better be careful, buddy. You're the one who predicted I was pregnant" Lorelai said. "You might be predicting this one is a girl"
"I wouldn't mind if it was a girl" Luke said. "I'd take either one. Besides, when I predicted you were pregnant, you had already been pregnant for three months"
"I think we were both too busy with Izzy to notice" Luke said. "Do you think it might be a bad thing that we're having a baby so soon after Izzy?"
"Well, Izzy is already one and we still have another three months before this baby comes so I think we'll be okay" Lorelai said. "People probably think I never use birth control but I can deal with that"
It was quiet.
"I love you" Luke said.
"I love you too" Lorelai said. "What do you think about Amelia Elizabeth? Emma for short"
"For what?" Luke asked.
"For the baby's name" Lorelai said in a duh voice. "What else?"
"I think that's a good name" Luke said. "What about if it's a boy?"
"Matthew William" Lorelai said. "Matthew is my dad's middle name and William is your dad's name"
"I like that" Luke said. "But won't your mom be jealous that two of our kids are named after my mom and only one after her?"
"She'll be happy that one kid is named after her, trust me" Lorelai said.
Luke sat down on the couch. Lorelai sat on his lap.
"Maybe we should take a nap too" Lorelai said yawning. "We didn't exactly get much sleep last night"
"But it was worth it" Luke said smiling.
Lorelai laughed.
"Lucas William Danes, you are the best husband a woman could have" Lorelai said smiling and closing her eyes.
"Lorelai Victoria Gilmore" Luke said. "You are the most beautiful and wonderful mother and wife I've ever seen and my parents would have been proud to have you as a daughter in law"
Lorelai smiled and they drifted off to sleep. His hand on top of hers, placed gently on Lorelai's ever growing abdomen.
The next chapter will be the last major time change, I swear. If it isn't you all can form an angry mob and chase me down the street.
