Lorelai walked up to the door that had a closed sign hanging next to covered windows. She could see the light shinning through and she hoped the door was unlocked. Nervously she pushed open the door as the familiar bell rang overhead. Luke Danes the man she had not seen since her second month when she had no idea she was pregnant. He looked up to see Lorelai standing there giving him a hopeful smile holding a baby girl in her arms.

"Uh, Hi" he said as images of his fathers funeral washed over him

"Hey" she said moving closer to the dumbstruck guy standing in front of her.

"So…" He said awkwardly

"This is Rory, my daughter" Lorelai said and Luke looked at her and opened his mouth a few times before Lorelai answered his question "Chris"

"Wow"

"I know"

"You want some coffee?" He asked turning around towards the pot

"Thanks"

Luke handed her the cup and waited for her to explain

"I didn't want Rory to be raised in Hartford with my parents. I wanted her to have a different life, a better life. So, I thought of where I've been the happiest. Disneyland didn't quite make the cut probably because I've never been there but Stars Hollow did. That month I was here" she paused "With you. That's how I want my daughter to be raised"

"Where's Chris?"

"Chris is in Hartford"

"You guys aren't…"

"No"

"Okay"

"So, Luke?" Lorelai asked setting down her coffee cup

"Yeah?"

"I was wondering if I could stay with you for a while. I mean not forever but just until I get things settled with"

"Yes" He said cutting her off

"Thanks"

"Stay as long as you need" he paused "As long as you want"

She looked straight into his eyes and could tell he meant it "It means a lot"

"Anytime" he said and smiled

"So, what's going on with the store?"

"I'm turning it into a diner"

"Oh really! So now your fantastic coffee is not just exclusive to me?"

"Now, the whole world gets to enjoy it's tasty goodness"

Lorelai and Luke walked home from there Luke carrying Rory and Lorelai watching him. He knew how to hold her, he was good with her. She watched as Rory fell asleep in his arms and he just smiled at her. They got to the front door and Luke looked up and handed Rory to Lorelai as he opened the door.

"So, I don't exactly have a crib for her" he whispered so he didn't wake her up

"She can sleep with me tonight"

"Okay, why don't you take my Dad's room it's bigger than Liz's and I'll change the sheets"

"Oh, no you can have that room I'll take a smaller one"

"I, um can't take it so it may as well be used"

"Right, she said walking into the room that was surprisingly feminine"

"My Dad never changed anything since my mom died"

Lorelai picked up a picture "She was beautiful"

"Yeah, I wish you would have gotten to meet her"

"I do too"

Lorelai smiled at Luke as she made a small crib of blankets on the bed and set Rory in them. Luke came over and they both watched her sleep.

"She looks like you" he said barely above a whisper

Lorelai looked over at him to find he was looking at her. Their eyes connected and neither of them could look away. Luke smiled and motioned for her to follow him out of the room.

A/N- Okay, I know it's been forever but school just started and I've been really busy. So, here's the chapter it's super short but I didn't want to prolong it just for length.
