"Where's the emergency?" the doctor ran to the reception desk on the second floor of the hospital.
"You're needed in room 209" the lady behind the desk told him and he made a mad dash for the room thinking it was something serious.
"Mr. Danes?" the doctor asked once he was in the room, Luke was standing next to the bed where Lorelai was half sitting half lying. "What are you doing here?" he frowned and Luke smirked turning around.
"Hi, Doc" Lorelai did a little tired wave from the bed. "We'd like you to meet someone" she added with a big smile. "Luke, show him" she urged. Luke walked over to the other side of the bed and bent over to pick something up; the doctor was confused until he saw that Luke had a baby in his arms. The doctor smiled as Luke walked over to where he stood and passed the baby over.
It had been close to two years since Luke was first brought to the hospital after his seizure in the diner. A lot had changed; the first year right after he was discharged was spent planning the wedding. Well, Lorelai spent it planning the wedding, Luke spent it going to physical therapy and dealing with the side effects.
"Luke, are you feeling better?" Lorelai asked walking into their room, Luke was curled into a ball in pain. "The fever is still there" Lorelai said sadly and Luke groaned clutching his stomach. It had been over a month since he had been discharged and ever since he had had all the side effects the doctor had warned him about and he was still taking the pills 'for at least one more month' the doctor had said; they wanted to make sure nothing was left behind.
"I'm c-cold" he was shivering.
"No, you're burning up. Come on" she pulled at his hands.
"W-what are you doing?" he frowned when she sat him up at the edge of the bed.
"Taking all this crap off" she started by his sweatshirt.
"No. Lorelai, no" he tried to stop her but she had more strength than he did right now.
"It'll make your fever go down" she argued now taking his t-shirt off.
"God it's so cold"
"Loose the pants"
"No"
"Luke, please, we need to get the fever down otherwise you're going into the bathtub again"
"No! No bathtub" the last time he had a fever this high he had refused to take his clothes off so Lorelai had made him go into the tub filled with freezing cold water.
"Ok then, loose the pants"
-------
"Luke, you still look as hot as ever, maybe even hotter" Lorelai argued, they were in the living room arguing about their wedding.
"Tsk…" he scoffed. "I've lost like ten pounds and my head looks like a knee"
"Luke…" Lorelai said giggling. "Your head doesn't look like a knee, you look hot. And about your weight, you'll get it back once you stop being nauseas all the time"
"I don't want to look like this in all of our wedding pictures" he argued.
"Don't worry, by the time the wedding get's here, your hair will be back and so will your weight… though, if you want to put the weight back in muscle that would be awesome" she teased.
"Gee thanks for your support" he said sarcastically with a smirk.
------
"The doctor just gave you a clean slate, how do you feel?" Lorelai asked excitedly on their drive back form the doctors.
"Dizzy" Luke deadpanned.
"He said all the side effects would stop once the drugs were completely out of your system" she said sympathetically.
"Yeah, in like a week"
"And then you'll gain weight…"
"Muscle according to you" he mumbled and Lorelai ignored him with a smile.
"And your hair will grow back, and then we'll get married and start our middle… our whole package" he also smiled.
"Bout time" he mumbled.
"Tell me about it" she teased placing a hand on his thigh and giving it a squeeze.
------
"Hey husband of mine" Lorelai teased walking out of the bathroom and into the bedroom of the hotel they had checked into a couple hours ago, Luke chuckled.
"Hi, wife"
"I love the sound of that" she smiled and walked over to the bed where he was lying down with his arms behind his head.
"Good"
"Well, I have to give it to you…"
"Dirty" he mumbled, she was rubbing off on him.
"… we have been married less than 24 hrs and you've already knocked me up"
"Yeah I'm… what?!" he sat up on the bed. "You're… you're pregnant?" Lorelai nodded biting her lip with a sheepish smile. "Really?" she nodded. "Oh my God, this is great!" she was relieved he thought so.
------
"This is not fair" Lorelai whined.
"What?" Luke asked absentmindedly from the bed.
"Now that you are nausea free, I have nausea all the time" he chuckled. "The difference is that you lost weight but I'm only destined to get bigger"
"You're pregnant" he reminded.
"I know" she responded annoyed but with a smile. Man how things had changed, not a year ago had Luke been in his deathbed with his future going no more than a few weeks; now here they were, married and expecting their first baby, with Luke completely healthy.
"We want you to meet little Lucas Daniel Danes" Lorelai told the doctor.
"Daniel?" the doctor seemed confused.
"Yes, if it weren't for you and your tapeworm idea Luke wouldn't even be here" Lorelai said, she started with a smile but then it banished from her face.
"I- I don't know what to say" he was flattered and only looked down at the baby in his arms. "Thanks"
"Thank you" Lorelai told him genuinely.

I figured that this story was already OOC from GG and from my normal stories so why not have a sappy ending.
