Ok the whole wending bell blues thing never happened (Luke and Lorelai never broke up, and Luke and Christopher never fought) Logan never happened (Mostly cuz' he's a bad influence and I don't like him, although I still think he's cute).

Luke was sitting in the livingroom with Jess while Rory and Lorelai were upstairs primping.
"Will you hurry up!" Luke yelled up the stairs.
"Don't pressure us, cuz' this is your fault mister!" Lorelai yelled back.
"Gee uncle Luke, what did you do this time?" Jess asked and teased at the same time, he's a multitasker.
"I already told you, just call me Luke, and she's mad cuz' she says none of her dresses fit well and its all my fault" Luke said then he plopped onto the couch with a sigh.
"She's right you know"
"Shut up, Jess"
"I'm just saying..."
"Shut up, Jess" Luke said more annoyed.
"Alright, alright. Shutting up now" Jess said and then leaned back against the back of the couch and didn't say a word. Twenty minutes later Rory and Lorelai walked into the livingroom.
"Ok we're ready" Rory said with a smile and a sigh.
"Finally" Jess said, turned the tv off and stood up. "Lets go" he extended his arm towards Rory and she grabbed it, Rory didn't want to take someone to the wedding and since Jess was flying solo she was gonna fly with him. The both of them walked outside.
"Hey there" Luke said walking up to Lorelai. "You look beautiful" he told her while placing a hand on her lower back.
"Nice try" Lorelai raised an eyebrow.
"I mean it" Luke told her, they were walking towards the door.
"You have to say that cuz' you did this" Lorelai told him while placing a hand on her stomach and Luke closed the door.
"You're right, you don't look beautiful, you look gorgeous. And you know it" Luke told her while walking towards the car.
"Aw you're being mushy" Lorelai said pinching his cheek.
"Pinching..." Luke told her and she stopped, he helped her in the car, then got in himself.
WeDdInG ReCePtIoN PaRkInGlOt
They got there and once Lorelai stepped out of the car she started whining and saying how they should leave since they already went to the wedding and that way they did what her parents wanted without seeing her parents or any other stuck ups.
"Please" Lorelai whined one last time before entering. Luke had his hand on he lower back and behind them Rory was clinging on Jess' arm.
"I told you already, we should be here for at least one hour before we can go. Now stop the whining" Luke said annoyed.
"But..." Lorelai started again but Jess cut her off.
"Geez! Give it a rest already. C'mon Rory" Jess tugged on her arm and they quicken their pace and got lost in the sea of ugly dresses, tuxes and disgusting 'old lady' perfume.
"Ok, that was rude. Little punk!" Lorelai yelled after Jess and all the people surrounding them turned to look at her with a disgust face.
"Lorelai" Luke whispered in her ear. He didn't like being the center of attention.
"Sorry" she told him. And they continued walking around.
"Lorelai!" Emily screeched behind them. They turned to look at her.
"Yeah mom?" Lorelai said politely.
"You didn't come to the wedding..." Emily started.
"What are you talking about? Where do you think we are" Lorelai asked holding back a smile.
"We are at the reception, the wedding was two hours ago..."
"Mom, we're here now, and that's what matters"
"Fine" Emily said with a sigh.
"So mom, where's our table?" Lorelai asked after a little while.
"Follow me" with that Emily escorted them to the table.
HaLf An HoUr LaTeR
Luke and Lorelai were sitting facing the dance floor and doing some serious people watching and mocking. Luke had his chair slightly turned towards Lorelai's and had his hand behind her back.
"Hey look over there" Luke told her with a nod towards the direction he was telling her.
"Oh my God" Lorelai said laughing.
"I didn't know a dress could have so many ruffles and tousles" Luke said also laughing. They kept laughing and mocking until Lorelai saw something that caught her eye.
"Luke, Luke look" Lorelai said pointing towards the dance floor.
"Poor guy, he never had a chance" Luke said laughing, when he saw that Rory had convinced Jess to dance.
"Yeah... c'mon..." Lorelai said getting up and tugging on his hand.
"What?" Luke turned to look at her pouting face.
"Lets dance" she whined.
"Umm... no way"
"Please" bring on the puppy eyes. Luke sighted.
"One dance" he said getting up.
"Yay!" Lorelai looped her arm thru his and they walked to the dance floor as soon as a slow song started. "Perfect timing" she smiled. Lorelai thru her arms around his neck and got as close to him as her stomach let her.
After four slow songs Lorelai said she was gonna go get something to drink, Luke had offer to go but she told him it was ok. Luke went towards his table when Richard intercepted him and they started talking.
Lorelai was standing at the bar waiting for her drink. To the left of the bar was the male's bathroom, and to the right of the bar was the woman's bathroom. She had her back to the counter and was staring at Luke and her dad talking and laughing in the distance and she smiled to herself.
"Ma'am" the waiter at the bar called her. "Your drink is ready" Lorelai turned and grabbed her drink.
"Thank you" she took a sip and then turned back to see Luke, her dad and one of his dad friends talking.
"Seeing Lorelai Gilmore at a bar is not weird, but seeing Lorelai Gilmore at a Hartford event... now that's weird" Christopher said coming out of the bathroom. He could only see Lorelai sideways, he was in for a big surprise.
"What are you doing here?" Lorelai said turning slightly to look at Christopher walking around the counter to where she was standing. He suddenly stopped and his face froze in a shock expression.
"You...you're...Uh" he started but couldn't finish any thought.
"Pregnant?" Lorelai finished for him, he nodded. "Mmm is that what this is?" Lorelai placed her hands on her stomach. "And here I was thinking I had swallowed a basketball" she took a sip from her glass. "Chris, breath"
"Who's..." he started but was cut of.
"Don't finish that Chris" Lorelai told him.
"Ok, then how far along are you?"
"Hmm, almost seven months"
"Wow. I thought you'd be almost due"
"Gee, way to be subtle. I know what you mean though, they're growing like crazy" Lorelai said and took another sip. Did she just say they? Chris thought a little confused.
"Umm... they?"
"What?"
"You just said, 'they're growing like crazy'"
"Oh, that. We're having twins" she said with a shrug.
"We?"
"Yes, Chris. In case you forgot it takes two people to make a baby" Lorelai teased.
"I know that Lor, I was just wondering who the guy was"
"I knew you were Chris"
"So?" the curiosity was killing Chris.
"I have to go, I told them I was gonna be fast. Bye Chris" she didn't even let him respond she just walked away. Chris kept his eye on her as she walked away. He saw her walk up to a guy in a suit who was talking with her father and one of his business associates, she hanged from his arm and he turned Luke! The guy from the diner, she's gonna have a baby with the diner man, no wait scratch that TWO babies with HIM. Chris stayed at the bar and took drink after drink after drink, just watching them interact.
"Hey whatcha got there?" Luke said motioning to her drink.
"Club soda..." she took a sip. "Want some?" she shoved her glass inches from his face.
"Ok..." he took the drink from her.
"Hey, can we go sit for a while?" she asked while he took a drink.
"Sure lets go" Luke told her, he excused himself from Richard and his friend, then left with Lorelai to their table. They had been talking for a long time, when a hand fell hardly on Luke's shoulder and gave it a harsh squeeze.
"What the..." Luke turned to look at Chris, he looked a little drunk.
"Congratulations buddy! I heard, twins huh? Man, you must be good"
"Chris, you're drunk" Lorelai said in a hissy voice, and Luke stands up to look at Chris in the eye.
"Not drunk, just tipsy..." Chris clarifies
"Why don't you do what you're best at and leave?" Luke said politely but crossing his arms over his chest.
"You can't talk to me like that, who do you think you are" Chris said giving Luke a little push on the chest.
"Chris..." Lorelai said warningly.
"Think she's gonna stay with you just cuz' you got her pregnant? I tried that, and I'm telling you right now, its not gonna work, I mean if it didn't work for me what makes you think its gonna work for you?" Chris said eyeing Luke.
"Because I'm not a piece of shit That's gonna abandon her and the boys" Luke said thru clenched teeth.
"What's that supposed to mean!" Chris asked shoving Luke.
"Luke please, lets just go" Lorelai begged, the music kept playing but everybody around them was staring.
"You should listen to her, and just walk away, I wouldn't want to leave those kids fatherless" Chris threatened.
"Why are you concerned about that now? When you didn't even think twice before leaving Rory behind!" Luke responded getting mad, up until now he had kept his cool.
"Bastard" Chris said with clenched teeth and took a swing at Luke, he moved to a side and Chris barely missed him. Lorelai's eyes grew bigger.
"Go home, Christopher. And take care of you other daughter" Luke said and turned around to walk towards Lorelai, giving his back to Christopher. Chris composed himself and moved to tackle Luke.
"Luke!" Jess yelled, he and Rory we running back to their table. Luke moved to the side and Chris stumbled, then stood back up.
"Who the hell are you and why are you holding my daughter's hand?" Chris asked walking towards Jess. Jess put on a don't-fuck-with-me face and took a step closer to Chris.
"Jess, don't" Luke warned.
"Jess? Jess? You're the little son of a bitch that broke my daughters arm!" Chris said pissed of.
"Dad, that was an accident" Rory said a little scared of the scene. She remembered a story Lorelai had once told her about Christopher.
Rory was ten and she went thru a faze where all she wanted was to hear stories about her dad , that faze lasted about a week.
"So he was a bad boy?" little Rory asked, and Lorelai just nodded. "That means he was good at fights, right?"
"Well he always won, but he was never good with fights"
"Then how could he always win?" Rory asked intrigued.
"Well he never played nice..."
"Meaning?"
"He didn't fight fair, there was this one time where he was supposed to fight this guy so the fight started and the guy gave your dad a big punch and he fell down, when he didn't get up for a couple of minutes the other guy gave up and started to walk away, and that's when your dad hit him from behind"
"So he didn't fight the guy?"
"Well, he did... but he didn't do it by the rules. He is like that, he always plays dirty"
Rory couldn't help but remember that story. 'Chris never played fair' that kept rolling around in Rory's head.
"Leave Jess out of this" Luke told Chris.
"Why? That little punk almost killed my daughter"
"No he didn't, it was nothing dad" Rory pleaded.
"Chris, that was a long time ago, a lot has happened since then" Lorelai told him.
"I noticed. What got into you Lorelai? Dating the diner guy..." Chris started and took everybody by surprise, Lorelai's face went from chocked to pissed in 0.2 seconds.
"Hey ass-hole that 'diner guy' has done more for Lorelai and Rory in a day than you ever had, so why don't you think before you start to attack!" Jess told him.
"That's it you little punk!" Chris said and moved to punch Jess, Luke pulled on one of Chris' arm before the other came close to Jess and punched him.
"Luke" Lorelai gasped.
"Mom!" Rory said and ran to her mother side and hugged her. Chris composed himself and went after Luke, he grabbed him by his collar and pushed Luke over to a table. Luke stood back up and did the same to Chris, but when Chris stumbled over on the able his hand landed on one of the knife's which Lorelai saw.
"LUKE!" Rory yelled with panic in her voice. Luke turned around to look at Rory and noticed Lorelai.
"Oh my God" Luke whispered and ran to her side, Christopher forgotten. "Lorelai, what's wrong?"
"It hurts" Lorelai whined. She had her hand over her heart, she was pale, sweating, and shaking a little. "And I feel really cold"
"C'mon lets go" Luke was clinging to her and she was clinging to him.
"Lor?..." Chris seemed to sober up a little and walked up to them.
"Stay the hell away from my family" Luke hissyed, and gave Chris a deadly look. "Here, bring the car around, hurry!" Luke tossed Jess his car keys.
"Lor, what's wrong?" Chris insisted.
"Christopher stop! Don't you see you've done enough. Leave and don't bother Lorelai again" Emily told him. She and Richard had join the group just when Rory had yelled for Luke. They were walking behind Luke, Rory and Lorelai.
In the car Jess was driving and Rory was shotgun. In the back seat was Luke trying to comfort Lorelai, they didn't call for an ambulance because the hospital was just three blocks away.
Lorelai was rushed to an exam room. Luke, Rory and Jess were forced to stay in the waiting room. Luke had his face in his hands and his elbows on his knees, one foot tapping incessantly, to his left was Rory she had her eyes unfocussed and has holding back tears. Jess was sitting to Luke's right he was serious and had his jaw clenched as well as his fists. They had been like that for several minutes, then a nurse walked into the waiting room.
"Luke Danes? I'm looking for a Luke…"
"I'm Luke Danes" Luke said standing up quickly, followed by Rory and Jess.
"Follow me, please" the nurse said, Luke turned to look at Jess giving him a look-over-Rory look and Jess nodded, then Luke followed the nurse.
After Luke left Rory just stood in the same place without moving, having millions of scenarios play out in her mind.
"Rory?" Jess asked carefully walking up to her. "Rory, breath" he told her and she drew in a shaky breath and let it out slowly. "Rory, your mom's ok" he reassured her.
"How can you be so sure?" she asked in disbelief.
"Because a nurse came to get Luke, no wait, she walked in and calmly asked for Luke" Jess told her.
"So?"
"So, if something bad would've happened she would've rushed in here and yelled for Luke, but she didn't. And if something much worse would've happened a doctor would've come here, and told all of us right here in the waiting room. So relax, ok? Your mom's fine" he explained and Rory just nodded. They both took a seat and just as they did Emily and Richard walked in.
"Rory!" Emily yelled as soon as she set foot in the waiting room. "What happened? How's your mom? And the boy's?"
"We don't know anything yet" Rory said a little apologetic.
"What! You've been here for almost half an hour and still you don't know anything" Emily said.
"That's outrage"
"Well a nurse walked in here a while ago and asked for Luke, but that's it" Jess told her.
"She walked in?" Richard asked Jess.
"Yes sir, and she calmly asked for Luke" Jess continued.
"Well, not the news I was expecting, but that will do for now" Richard said and took a seat.
"What? Richard please explain!" Emily screeched and sat next to him. Just then Luke walked into the waiting room with a relax look on his face.
"Daddy!" Rory yelled and ran towards Luke, she threw her arms around his neck and hugged him tight. Richard and Emily had a shock expression, and not that anyone could see him but Christopher had the same expression, he had just opened the door on the other side of the waiting room when he heard Rory yelled 'daddy' and hug Luke. "How is she? How are the boy's? what happened? When can I see her?..." Rory started to babble.
"Rory, relax. You can go see her now. She's in room 108, that's on the second floor" Luke told her.
"But I though the first number meant the floor she was in"
"It does… the first floor is the ER so it doesn't count, that's why the put the 1 on all the second floor and the 2 to all the third floor and so on and so forth" Luke explained. "Jess, could you go with her?" Jess nodded and stood up, both left and Luke walked to sit next to Emily and Richard.
ElEvAtOr
"Did you realize you just called Luke 'daddy'?" Jess asked her once the doors closed.
"Yeah… I just… I couldn't help it" Rory tells him sheepishly.
"Hey, I'm not judging"
"You think he got mad?" Rory asked him now nervous.
"Nah, I think he really liked it. I don't know, somehow it fits him" he told her and Rory nodded with a small smile. "Just don't tell him I said that" and the macho Jess was back. The doors opened and they went hunting for Lorelai's room.
ThE WaItInGrOoM
"…panic attack?" Emily asked.
"That's what the doctor said" Luke explained.
"So, they're ok?" Richard asked still not understanding.
"Yes, Lorelai and the boys are ok" Luke said with a little smile escaping.
"Well that's good" Emily said. "Ok, I'm gonna go see what I can do to make Lorelai's stay here better" she said and stood up.
"I'm gonna go take care of the bill and stuff" Richard said getting up.
"You don't have to do that…" Luke said also getting up.
"I know, but I want to…"
"But…" Luke started again.
"You have the boys to look after. So we're gonna pay for this"
"But…"
"No buts" Richard said
"All right, if you insist… just, don't tell Lorelai" Luke told him, Richard nodded and left. After a quick glance around the room, he grabbed Rory's purse and went to the elevators and up to Lorelai's room.
LoReLaI's RoOm
Lorelai was lying in bed she had two little sensors on her stomach the took the heart rate of the twins, another sensor that took her heart beat, another that took her blood pressure, she had a little tube sticking out of her nose, the I.V sticking out of her arm and something wrapped around her right index finger. And although Rory knew her mom was fine she couldn't help but feel bad at the image beyond her eyes, not to mention the incessant beeping, one strong beeping for Lorelai's heart beat and two different chirping for the twins beats.
"Hey kid, are you ok over there?" Lorelai asked Rory, who was standing right next to the door.
"You can come closer you know?" Rory nodded and walked a little closer.
"How…umm…what…?" Rory started but couldn't find the words.
"We are fine…" Lorelai said placing a hand on he stomach. "The doctor said it was a severe panic attack" Lorelai explained. "But for a moment there, I could've sworn it was a heart attack"
"But you're ok?" Rory asked with a little girls voice. Lorelai had to smile at that sound.
"I swear we're fine…"
"Cuz' we need to focus on the December thing and…" Rory said and her voice cracked a little.
"Aw honey, shh come here…" Lorelai opened her arms towards Rory, she ran a little and envelope her mom in a tight hug. "I'm ok, your brothers are ok, don't worry…" Lorelai said rubbing Rory's back
"I was so scared" Rory whispered in Lorelai's ear.
"I know honey…" Lorelai kept rubbing Rory's back.
HaLlWaY OuTsIdE LoReLaI's RoOm
Jess was staring at his shoes when Luke walked up to him.
"Is Rory in there?" Luke asked placing Rory's bag on the seat next to Jess.
"Ever since we got here" Jess said turning to look at Luke. "She is ok, right?' Jess asked a little worried.
"Lorelai?" Luke asked and Jess nodded. "Yeah she and the boys are fine, she had a sever panic attack. But they're ok"
"Good" Jess said with a little relief, Luke took a seat next to Jess and both sat there in silence.
In LoRaLaI's RoOm
"I called Luke daddy" Rory confessed suddenly still in Lorelai's embrace.
"What?" Lorelai asked shocked and pulled back a little.
"I called Luke daddy" Rory said again and looked down.
