So I was going to end the story with the last chapter, but then I decided that I should at least wrap things up a bit more. I know that this story had been crazy and I'm happy that at least some people stuck with me until the end. Right now I'm working on a tamer story, but still good I hope. The first chapter's up so check it out. And now, the epilogue.

The champagne bottles popped. Everyone cheered. Rory sliced through the cake and pulled out a piece. She picked up a fork and began to feed Marty. He did the same to her, but missed her mouth. The cake slid down her face. She smiled and then picked up her piece of cake with her hand and smashed it on Marty's mouth, making sure to rub it in. Everyone laughed.

"Let them eat cake!" Rory commanded. Then she helped Marty get the cake off his face. As she brushed at it with a napkin, Marty took her hand and kissed it. He pulled her to him and kissed her harder.

"Hey hey don't make me get the fire hose!" Lorelai told the two of them as she walked over.

"It's my wedding day mom, the least you can let me do is make out with my husband." Rory hugged her mother.

"Oh I don't mind, but Anastasia here doesn't really want to watch you two grope each other, she was traumatized enough during the ceremony." Rory smiled and looked down at the little girl clinging to Lorelai's hand.

"Do you not like Marty?" Anastasia smiled.

"I do like him."

"Good because he's kind of like a brother to you now." Rory picked up her little sister. "Which means that you can force him to watch all your princess movies with you." Little Anastasia pumped her fist and then reached out to Marty. Marty smiled and took the little girl.

"Would you care to dance?" he offered her. She nodded eagerly and the two of them walked out to the dance floor where they twirled around, Anastasia's face lit up with delight.

"He's great with her." Lorelai said to Rory as the two of them watched Marty swing Anastasia around. "But how do you expect to get him to watch princess movies with her?"

"A wise woman once said 'You can make a man eat cardboard if you play the right tricks.'"

"I don't remember ever saying that."

"You didn't. That was a quote from I Dream of Jeannie." Lorelai laughed and put her arm around Rory.

"I'm going to miss this."

"What?'

"This, us. Our little banter."

"Mom, I got married I didn't die. And besides you got married and we still talk."

"True."

"Speaking of your husband where is the pater familias?"

"Last time I saw him he told me he needed a beer. Oh there he his." Lorelai waved and her husband walked over. He kissed Lorelai on the cheek and then turned to Rory.

"The ceremony was great, Rory."

"He cried," Lorelai pointed out.

"Aw Luke you old softie." Rory playfully poked her step-father.

"So what, I cried. Is that a crime?"

"Didn't find your beer did you," Lorelai surmised.

"Nope, only frou-frou champagne."

"Well it is a wedding," Rory told him. He nodded.

"Where's Anastasia?" Rory and Lorelai both pointed to the dance floor. He kissed Lorelai and gave Rory a hug before walking out to the dance floor to join Marty and Anastasia. Lorelai and Rory continued to watch them.

"If she's got two men dancing with her at three years old, what do you think she's going to be like at her senior prom?" Lorelai asked Rory.

"I think she'll be fine. After all she's got a pretty kick-ass mom." Lorelai turned to her daughter, her eyes misting.

"You'll be a pretty kick ass mom too."

"Not for a while though. I've got a career to establish, but maybe someday." Lorelai nodded and then hugged her daughter.

"I love you babe."

"Love you too mom." Rory pulled away and wiped her mother's eyes. Then she smiled and went out to the dance floor. She and Marty began to dance while Luke picked Anastasia up and held her in the air, spinning around.

After a bit Rory walked towards her step-father and half sister. "Hey Luke?"

"Yeah?" Luke turned towards her, Anastasia giggling.

"Will you dance with me?" Luke smiled and set Anastasia down.

"Run to your mom ok?" Anastasia grinned and ran to Lorelai. Then Luke took Rory's hand and the two of them began to sway to the music.

"Did I ever tell you how happy I am that you and mom finally got together?" Luke smiled.

"No, you didn't."

"Well I am. I mean for a while there she had to leave the room every time Anastasia was watching a Disney movie because when the characters would kiss she would cry." Luke nodded at her. As they swayed Rory began to face Lorelai and Anastasia. Rory smiled looking at the little girl, her half sister. They were in the same boat she and Anastasia. Three years ago Anastasia's father had died and a year later Rory's own father had died in a car accident.

"He would have loved to be here," Luke whispered in her ear, as if he could read her mind. Rory's eyes began to tear, but she brushed them back. There was nothing to cry about. She and Anastasia were both very lucky. They had a mother that would do anything for them. Who had made, and would make, growing up fun for her daughters. And Rory realized, as she felt warm protecting arms around her, that they both did have a father. A father who would protect them with his life. Anastasia called this man dad because she didn't know any better. She didn't know that he wasn't biologically her father. But what about Rory? She hadn't been able to call him anything but Luke.

"Luke?" Rory tested the word.

"Yeah Rory."

"Do you think…I mean would you be ok if…maybe I started calling you dad?" They stopped swaying and Luke pulled back, tears in his eyes. He walked towards her and kissed her forehead.

"I think that would be great." Rory began to cry to and the two of them cried together. Lorelai walked up behind them, Anastasia in her arms.

"What are you two crying about?"

"Dad was just crying because he's going to miss me so much." Lorelai stopped. She hadn't missed the first word that had come out of Rory's mouth. Dad. Lorelai began to tear up to. Luke pulled both of them to him in one big hug.

"Squished!" a little voice cried from within the hug. The three of them laughed as they pulled back and looked at Anastasia.

"I'm going to go get some food. This little monster is yours." Lorelai handed Anastasia to Luke and then walked towards the catering table. She got a plate of food and then sat a table to watch her daughters. They laughed and danced with Luke, the only father they had left. Lorelai smiled as Marty came to join them and took Rory away. Her daughter looked beautiful in her long white dress. And she looked especially beautiful when she looked at Marty. Her whole face lit up. Lorelai was really happy that they had found each other. Rory reached out her arms as her best friends Lane and Paris came towards her, pulling Lane's two kids with them. Then Lorelai looked back to Anastasia. She too was very beautiful. She looked just like her father. Long blonde hair and beautiful blue eyes. She even had her father's grin. Lorelai began to cry but then realized that there was no reason to. She had had more love in her lifetime than most people. She had two loves who, though they were not with her anymore, had left her with the two most beautiful girls in the world. And then she had her third love, the steady and dependable Luke. Lorelai was truly blessed. She smiled as she took a bite of her salad. Sookie and Jackson came to sit down at her table, bringing with them their three children. Lorelai chatted with them, all the while keeping her eyes on her family. Her husband, two daughters, and son in law. This was her happy ending. Cue the happy music, fade to black.
