A Different History Repeating Itself
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN GILMORE GIRLS, PERIOD.
Chapter 9
A couple of days later, Luke is still processing about the news about Nicole being arrested. He is looking into getting full custody of Melanie and Thomas. He has talked to his attorney about it as it will be a harder fight. However the case will be complicated by the fact that the mother has been arrested. Plus Melanie and Thomas have spent the last couple of nights with them.
Lorelai looks at Luke as today is the day that Rory comes homes with the twins. "Luke", Lorelai said to Luke.
Luke turns to Lorelai as he sighs to her. "This house is about to turn into the Fuller House". Luke said to Lorelai. He realizes that the house might be too small for the big family.
Lorelai nods in agreement with Luke. "I know, and the sleeping arrangements will be difficult". Lorelai said to Luke.
Luke nods as he is thinking about Thomas and Melanie. "We should seek full custody of Thomas and Melanie". Luke said to Lorelai.
Lorelai looks at Luke as this situation is different. "I agree. Plus they need a stable environment and loving parents". Lorelai said to Luke.
Luke nods as he looks at the clock. "I know plus Stars Hallow will be even more lively and nuttier with them and the girls". Luke said to Lorelai.
Lorelai nods as she looks at them. "Yeah although the town is sweating over on what Rory gave birth. I saw people wearing pink hair bows and blue bow ties". Lorelai said to Luke.
Luke sighs as he looks at Lorelai. "They never mind their own business. Plus we should head over to the hospital to bring Rory and the twins home". Luke said to Lorelai.
Lorelai looks at Luke as she shakes her head. "My mother and April are bringing Rory and the twins home". Lorelai said to Luke.
Luke nods as he looks outside. He notices a group of people from the town. "It looks like they are getting restless with not knowing". Luke said to Lorelai.
Lorelai looks outside as she sees the instigator of the entire thing. "It looks like Taylor is with them as well". Lorelai said to Luke.
Luke rolls his eyes as he suspected this as much. "Taylor is always persistent". Luke said to Lorelai.
Lorelai sighs as she went outside to deal with them. "I will deal with them". Lorelai said to Luke.
Lorelai walks outside as she went to the group of people. "Taylor", Lorelai said to Taylor.
Taylor looks at Lorelai as he has a grin on the face. "Lorelai, we have not heard if Rory has gone into labor or not. Plus the whole town does not even know if she is having a boy or a girl. Why are there no decorations to welcome them home"? Taylor said to Lorelai.
Lorelai looks at Taylor as she is annoyed at him. "You have no decency of letting us having our privacy. Ever since Luke banned you from the dinner, you have really upped your knowing everything game. If you want to know the twins, it will have to wait when they make their debut into the town. I will ask all of you very nicely to leave". Lorelai said to Taylor and the group.
The group leave the the house except Taylor. Taylor frowns as he looks at her. "You know ever since you married Luke, you have gotten more grumpy like he is". Taylor said to Lorelai.
Lorelai frowns as she hears that from Taylor. "Luke is my husband, Taylor. I am his partner in life. You have really gone to far by coming here with them. I am still my fast talking self. You have interfered with our relationship even when we first were dating. We have gotten through everything including the kitchen sink of problems and issues in the relationship. We are not not going to let you being a thorn in our asses forever". Lorelai said to Taylor. Taylor scoffs as he leaves the house.
Lorelai went back into the house as Luke is with Melanie and Thomas. "Umm Luke, what is going to happen with us"? Thomas asks Luke.
Luke looks at Thomas and Melanie. Lorelai sits next to him as they are making the announcement together. "We are planning to get full custody of you and your sister. You two will be a part of our family". Luke said to them.
Thomas and Melanie look at each other as they look at them. "Really", Melanie said to them as she is getting excited. Thomas a light smile on his face. "What about the dad that we have in our lives though"? Thomas asks them.
Luke and Lorelai look each other as it is a hard question. "Lance learned that he is not your biological father. Your mother was not forthcoming about your paternity to him and to me. It is not his fault that he got deceived by it. He is still processing the news, and I am still processing it myself. I may not have all the answers to your questions. However the person you should ask your mother Nicole. We will get through this together like a new family". Luke said to them.
Melanie and Thomas look at each other as they look at Luke and Lorelai. "We understand that but why does it effect us some much"? Melanie asks them.
Lorelai looks at them as she has a smile on her face. "It effects you two because you are kids that are in the middle of this crazy situation. I have seen it and been in it as well from a parent perspective and as significant other". Lorelai said to them.
Melanie and Thomas nods as they are starting to understand it. "Are you two are going to fight for us in the custody battle"? Thomas asks them.
Lorelai and Luke nod to them as they look at the kids in the eye. "You bet we will". Luke said to them.
All the sudden, a car arrives at the house as the only people that they are expecting is Rory, Emily, April, and the new born twins. "Did Taylor come back"? Luke asks Lorelai.
Lorelai shrugs as she is not sure. "I will see who it is". Lorelai said to Luke. She went outside as she sees a familiar blonde headed woman. Luke looks out from the window as it is Nicole. He frowns as he is wondering how she got out of jail. "Thomas and Melanie go upstairs". Luke said to them. The twins nod as they went upstairs. He went outside to see the exchange going on.
Lorelai glares at Nicole as she is not happy to see her. "Nicole what are you doing here? I thought you should be seeing bars, and I don't mean the place that serves alcohol". Lorelai asks Nicole.
Nicole looks at Lorelai as she is very drunk. "I posted bail last night. I came to pick up my kids". Nicole said to Lorelai as she is slurring her speech.
Lorelai frowns as she sees that she has been drinking and drunk. "I don't know how you gotten here without being pulled over for a DUI, but those kids are not getting in that car with you". Lorelai said to Nicole.
Nicole frowns as she glares at Lorelai. "They are my kids Gilmore. I will call the cops and tell them that you are keeping my kids from me". Nicole said to Lorelai.
Lorelai frowns as another car arrives as it is Emily. "First of all, it is Danes. Secondly, a good parent and mother would never under any circumstances release children to those that are drunk and disorderly. If they die in that car with you because of your drunk driving, it will be your fault. Plus it will be my fault for releasing them to you. I will never forgive myself especially when I am a grandmother. Luke and I will be fighting you for full custody of Thomas and Melanie like the boxing dream team of Rocky Balboa and Adrian". Lorelai said to Nicole.
Nicole glares at Lorelai as she is drunk. As she is about to slap Lorelai in the face, a hand grabs Nicole's wrist. "I would not lay a hand on her". Anna said to Nicole. She releases Nicole's hand away from Lorelai
Luke nods as he witness the entire thing. "That's right, I saw the entire thing plus there are some people in that car that are calling the police right now". Luke said to Nicole.
Emily gets out of the car as she is not happy. "I am one of those people. I will be giving them a great attorney that can and will make your attorney look like Martian Sheen crying like a baby". Emily said to Nicole.
Nicole frowns as she as she is about to run away. The police car arrives quickly as they see Nicole. "Ma'am, we were called to the scene of your drunk behavior and domestic disturbance". The police officer said to Nicole
Nicole looks at them as she just wanted to pick her kids up. "She has my kids and she won't release them to me". Nicole said to them.
Lorelai looks at them as she explains her side of the story. "I would not release her children to her in her drunken state. If I did, she could get into an accident because of her being drunk. If something happen to those kids in that car, it would be my fault and I would not forgive myself". Lorelai said to the officers.
The officers ultimately agreed with Lorelai as they cuffed Nicole. "Come on this is ridiculous, Thomas and Melanie are mine and Lance's kids. They are keeping them against their will". Nicole said to them.
Luke frowns as he is stunned that Nicole is playing a card on them. "Lance handed the kids over to us for the last two days. Nicole got arrested two days ago for a domestic disturbance and attempting to stab him". Luke said to them as he fires back at Nicole.
The other police officer checked on their police reports. The police officer nods to the arresting cop. "Sorry ma'am you are under arrest for drunk and disorderly and causing a domestic disturbance. You have the right to remain silent". The cop said to Nicole.
Luke looks at Nicole as she is being put in the back of a police car. He is hearing some banging noise from the trunk of Nicole's car. He went towards the car as he has the gut feeling that someone is in there. "Do you guys hear that"? Luke asks them.
The police officers look at each other as they realize that someone could be in their. They act very quickly as they open the trunk. To everyone's surprise, it is Lance that is in the back of Nicole's car.
"Sir are you alright"? A police officer asks Lance.
Lance is carefully pulled out from the trunk. "I will be. Nicole knocked me out last night. When I came too, I was trapped in the trunk". Lance said to them.
The police cop adds a kidnapping charge to Nicole. As the cops takes Nicole back to jail, Lance is taken to a nearby hospital. Rory got out from the car with her newborn twins. She is stunned with everything that has happened. "I never liked her". Rory said to them. The adults nod in agreement as it will be a lot more to explain to Melanie and Thomas.
End Chapter
Yeah Nicole has been arrested again. Plus pulled the unexpected twist of having Anna defending Lorelai. I am debating on whether it should have one or two more chapters in this to end it.
