Reviews:
Shawn-n-Bell: Bows Thank you, thank you.
LostMarauderx3: You're about to find out.
LostnStarsHollow: Thank you very much.
Mrs. Lucas McDreamy: Glad you love it.
JessluvrLL4ever8987: I'm not sure what you mean. I'm not exactly sure where we will end the story. It probably won't go much past Rory's birth, Lorelai's letter at the latest.
Disclaimer: Lissa and I still don't own Gilmore Girls, if we did, season 6 would have in no way ended the way it did.
Chapter Five: Telling the Parents
Lorelai sighed as Christopher pulled up outside the Gilmore home. "Do I have to do this?"
Christopher nodded. "They have to know, and they will know eventually. It's best if you tell them now."
"I know." Lorelai sighed again. "I just don't see this going over very well."
"Want me to come in with you?"
Lorelai shook her head. "You still have to tell your parents."
Christopher nodded. "I know, I'm not thrilled about that either."
She smiled. "So basically you're wanting to stall."
"Is it that obvious?"
She slapped him playfully. "If you're not grounded from me for life, call me later and tell me how it goes."
"Okay, Lore." Christopher said. "I expect you to do the same when I call."
"I will." She slowly got out of his car and headed into the house.
Gilmore Home
Lorelai walked into the house and closed the door behind her.
"Where have you been, Lorelai?" Emily Gilmore asked as soon as she walked into the foyer.
"Out." She said. "Where's dad?"
"He's in his study. Why, Lorelai, and I expect a better answer to where you've been than that."
"I'll give you one, I just need to talk to both of you."
"Fine." Emily said, as she and Lorelai walked into the living room. "Richard!" She called, trying to get her husband's attention.
"What is it, Emily?" Richard asked, coming out of his study.
"Lorelai has something to tell us." Emily said, looking at her daughter.
"Yes, Lorelai?" Richard asked, turning his own attention to her as well.
"I need both of you to sit down." Lorelai said as she remained in her spot.
"Why?" Emily asked. "What is it?"
"Just sit down, Emily." Richard said, sitting in his chair.
Emily sighed and sat down. "There, now tell us."
Lorelai sighed and looked to the ground, she still wasn't sure how to tell her parents this. "First off, mom. In answer to your question, I was with Christopher. I needed to discuss something with him." She looked back at her parents, determined not to let them intimidate her. "The thing I needed to discuss with him and the thing I am telling you now is that I'm pregnant."
Silence filled the room as Emily and Richard evaluated the situation, making sure they heard her right. "You're what?" Emily finally spoke up.
"I'm pregnant." Lorelai repeated, louder this time.
"What do you mean you're pregnant?" Emily asked her daughter. "You're sixteen."
"I know how old I am, mom, I keep track too." Lorelai said.
Richard sat in his chair in silence. He was thinking of what needed to be done now. "We need to call Strobe and Francine." He said finally.
"Not yet." Lorelai said. "Let Christopher tell them first."
Richard nodded. "Alright, we'll give him time. We need to decide what to do about this."
Hayden Home
Christopher walked silently into his house. I hope Lorelai is okay. He thought silently as he located his mother. "Mom, I need to talk to you and dad."
"What is it, Christopher?" Francine asked.
"I'll tell you both at the same time." He said, his face determined.
"Alright." Francine responded. "Strobe!" She called, wondering what Christopher had to tell them.
Strobe came out of his office. "Yes, Francine?"
"Come here for a minute, Christopher has something to say."
Strobe glared at his son. "What is it?"
"Can you both sit down, please?" Christopher asked his parents.
They obeyed, this worried Francine more, she was nearly to the point of tears and she didn't even know what it was about yet.
"Okay, Christopher, tell us." Strobe said, glaringly at his son.
Chrostopher took a deep breath. "Lorelai is pregnant."
Francine burst immediately into tears.
Strobe stood and walked over to his son. "Francine, stop crying." He said to his wife, when he reached his son, he asked angrily. "What did you say?"
"I said that Lorelai is pregnant." Christopher responded.
"What will we do?" Francine said, still crying, despite what her husband had told her.
"We will discuss this with the Gilmore's." Strobe responded.
A/N: Okay, this chapter is rather boring, and I only hope I got the parents personalities in there well enough. Let me know what you think.
