Ch 15

"Are you insane they will never go for that" Tristan states as we're getting ready for mandatory dinner at the Dugrays. Classes start on Monday and we have to tell them about the baby. We went to the doctors on Tuesdays to confirm that I was pregnant with estimated due date of March 8th and conception date of June 18th. It put us both at ease that it was guaranteed Tristan's since the last time I slept with Logan was May. So it's now August 27 and I'm 10 weeks.

"They will have to" I state walking out of the bathroom in a pink spaghetti strap baby doll dress and white sandals.

"Mare, they are going to be through the roof about the baby and now we have to tell them that we are postponing the wedding until the end of May because you want to lose the weight. We'll be lucky if they don't march us to the church Sunday" he state walking out of the closet.

"I don't care. I want to be married in Italy and it was be spring and I'm sorry if I want our child there. If they don't like they don't have to come" I state.

"Someone has claws out today" he smirks leaning closer and kissing me "You look great by the way" he says.

"Let's go, I'm starved can we stop for a snack" I states walking towards the living room and hear him laughing.

Dugray's

"You're late" Mom states waiting outside for us.

"Someone needed a snack" Tristan replies and she laughs.

"Starting already" She laughs. I called mom after we celebrated and told her. She drove down to come to the doctors with us on Tuesday and we went shopping for school afterwards. She's excited, but she understands why we're cautious.

"Tacos and a chocolate milkshake" I state and she looks almost sick.

"That's nasty even for us kid" she says ringing the bell.

"They are in the parlor" the maid says escorting us inside.

"Congratulations" Grandma, Rachel and Francine yell greeting us.

"Um…" I say looking at Mom and Tristan who look just as shocked as I am. "Oh, Rory don't look so surprised. You're mother used to faint at the beginning of her pregnancy too, we thought she was starving herself but we realized finally it was you" grandma says hugging me.

"What did the doctor say" Rachel questions.

"10 weeks due March 8th" I state hugging her and Francine.

"I guess that mermaid dress we found isn't going to fit Emily" Francine says and I look at grandma.

"I goes not unless…what would you two say about waiting until after the baby is born. Just a few months let's say May" she says and I look at Tristan.

"Can we have it at the Villa" he questions and they look at Pop who's smirking at us. "Of course my boy" he says.

"End of May, an Italian theme but just family and small nothing too big" I state.

"The villa can only hold about 100 people" Rachel adds telling my grandmothers.

"We can cut people out; that's fine. I wonder if they could make a dress for the baby to match her" Francine says.

"Whoa who says anything about a girl" Tristan says cutting the matching dress talk in half.

"Fine, a tux too, one of each just to be safe" Emily states and they go off on wedding and baby talk.

"Did we walk into a parallel universe" I question Mom and Tristan.

"We walked in, they screamed in delight and now they are changing everything to what we want…yep twilight zone" Tristan says kissing my temple.

"What about school my dear" Grandpa questions me as the women are off in wedding mode.

"I will do this semester and take off spring because of the baby and finish next fall" I say, Tristan and I already discussed that.

"She also is looking into online classes that are 6 weeks long for spring so she has something to do" Tristan says handing me a glass of water.

"Well that seems fine" he says as Derek Dugray walks in finally. "I'm here. I'm sorry" he says kissing Rachel's cheek.

"Derek, your son as incredible news for you" Rachel says smiling at us.

"Tristan" he says turning to look at us.

"Rory's pregnant" Tristan says lifting my hand and kissing it. He's so happy.

"Are you sure it's yours this time" he states and Tristan look furious.

"Just because you can't stay loyal to one woman doesn't mean I can't. I love Rory and our baby. Everyone else is thrilled for us why can't you be" he snaps at his father and I haven't seen him this pissed off since May when he found me with Logan.

"It's not you I was talking about son" he states.

"The baby was conceived in June Mr. Dugray while we were in California and this is the exact reason why we left" I state standing up next to Tristan.

"And what is that Lorelai because you refuse to see what you're doing, by dragging not only your family name through the mud but ours too" he yells. ,

"That's rich coming from you, since you were so adamant about getting us married off to save your precious company. Guess what, that won't happen now" I states storming out of the house.

"Mare" Tristan says running up behind me.

"I hate him Tristan, God I know he's your father and the baby's grandfather but I hate him. He made it clear that he hates me for making you do everything once again" I say getting more upset.

"You need to calm down, it's not good for you or the baby, Rory" he says rubbing my arms.

"I'm sorry" Pop says coming out of the house.

"Why is dad doing this? He was so for it months ago and now it's like he doesn't want this to happen?" Tristan questions Janlan as I bury by head in his chest calming myself down.

"He got the call from NYU about the classes son; neither of you are following the plan. He's afraid that the company will crumble without a Dugray at the head. He's under intense pressure and that's not an excuse, but instead of blaming himself he finds it easier to blame you my dear" Janlan says rubbing my back.

"I'll do it" Tristan says and I look at him.

"What, no Tristan you love to draw and you were so excited about the architecture classes. I can't let you give it up" I say looking up.

"It's my choice Rory, Dugray enterprises have been in our family for generations and no one but a Dugray has sat as CEO. It's what I have to do. I can still draw, Mare. Just not as often" he says touching my cheek.

"Then I do what they want as well, I can't be the only one that gets her dream Tris" I state.

"No, you don't realize it yet do you? Having you as my wife, having children with you is my dream. It won't matter what job I do, as long as I have you then I get my dream" Tristan says and I'm crying.

"Sweetheart there's no need to cry" Janlan says.

"Pop can you give us a minute" Tristan questions and Janlan nods and returns to the house.

"Come with me" he says taking my hand and walking around the house. We end up at the pool house.

"Tristan what are we doing here?" I question as he opens the door and pulls me inside.

"This is the past, Rory. This is what we all have put behind us" he says walking to the side room and unlocking it.

"Tristan, please" I say but he opens it anyways and walks inside. Even when we were here in May, I couldn't open the door. I couldn't even touch it.

"No one has been in here in 4 years Rory" he says as I approach the baby's nursery and you can see the expensive furniture that is covered in dust and cobwebs. He's right, this is in the past and we need to move on and close this chapter of our lives.

"Tristan" I say stepping into the room for the first time and he smiles at me.

"Small steps" he says and I nod.

"What's that" I say spotting a white box on the dressing table.

"That is a gift that I brought you and the baby before everything happened" he says walking to it.

"No" I state and he looks at me.

"Okay" he says stepping back and I walk to him, cutting the tape and open the box.

"Oh Tristan" I say tearing up. It's this white soft plush blanket with satin trim that I feel in love with years ago. It's wrapped in blue paper which kept is crisp and in perfect condition. It's embroidered with small angels and stars on it around the satin trim. It's what I wanted to take the baby home in but it was backordered for months.

"It arrived days before graduation. I just placed the box in here and never looked at it. I couldn't after you left" he says hugging me.

"Can we take it with us, please" I questions looking at him.

"I figured you might want it" he says kissing me forehead.

"It's like a piece of her will always be with us" I say crying and pulling the blanket out of the box to hold it close.

"I know Mare" he says hugging me.

We headed back to the car and left. I didn't want to be there. We headed to Stars Hollow and saw that Mom was already waiting for us at the house. "Kid, you missed it. Your grandfather was ready to go all Herman Monster on Derek. I wish I had a video camera" she laughs as we exit the car.

"Look" I say excitedly and holding the blanket out to her.

"Is that?" she questions looking between me and Tristan. She knows how hard we worked on finding it.

"Yeah, Tristan got it and its perfect mom" I say smiling brightly.

"I think you just made her the happiest person in the world bible boy" mom says hugging me before we all enter the house.
