Chapter 5: Early Bird
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
By the end of the letter tears were pouring down Lorelai's face. She looked up at her mother.
"I love you." Lorelai mouthed and smiled through her tears. Then a streak of pain etched across her face. "Rory."
"Yea mom?" Rory said laughing at a joke Lane had just told.
"Uh…I think I'm going into labor"
"What?" Rory asked confused.
"Labor." Lorelai struggled forming words. "Hospital."
"Oh my God." Rory panicked."Uh, lets get you to my car."
All the guests were in a frenzy. Everyone was running in different directions.
Rory ran out to the car while Emily pulled Lorelai up.
"Mom." Lorelai breathed. "This isn't supposed to happen."
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Luke sat across the table from Richard Gilmore. They were having polite conversation over lunch, both enjoying their time away from the Gilmore women.
"So Luke how is that girl of yours, April is it?" Richard asked taking a bite of his BLT.
"Good." Luke replied. "She's coming down in a couple of weeks, she wants to be here when the baby is born."
"She excited to be a big sister?"
"Yea she is." Luke smiled.
Richard smiled and took a sip of his cocktail. Just as he did a cell phone rang.
"Oh Lord I hate it when people don't silent those things."
Luke bit his lip as he felt the phone vibrating. He quickly shut it onto silent and took a bite of his salad.
"Yea." He agreed.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Uuugghh!" Rory groaned as she flipped the phone off. "Why wont he answer!?"
"Luke isn't answering?" Lorelai asked trying to keep her breathing regular.
"No mom." Rory replied frustrated. "He's not answering his damn phone and his wife is in labor!"
"Rory!" Emily said shocked.
"Oh grandma!"
"The contractions are coming quicker." Lorelai said gritting her teeth.
"Bye bye camero." Rory said as she sped up.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"And this son of yours," Richard said. "Have you picked a name yet?"
Luke wiped his mouth and looked up at Richard. "Uh no. Lorelai hasn't decided on what she wants."
"Well that girl can never decide what she wants."
"True true." Luke agreed.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
As nurses rolled Lorelai into a room, Rory tried to get a hold of Luke.
"Answer, answer, answer." Rory repeated. "Ugghhh!"
She tried again but still no answer.
"Grandma!" Rory yelled.
"Yes?"
"Do you know where grandpa and Luke were eating lunch at?" Rory asked.
"Uh yes…um the corner café."
"Corner café. Corner caf……hey Jackson, okay I need you to go to the corner café and get Luke and my grandpa."
"Corner café." Jackson said to himself. "Will do." He said as he started off.
"And hurry!" Rory yelled after him.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Luke stood up and shook Richard's hand. "You have a good day Richard."
"You too Luke, and make sure you decide on that name quick." Richard smiled.
"Will do Richard, wil…"
"Luke!" Jackson yelled as he ran into the café.
"Jackson? What the…" Luke said with confusion.
"Lorelai…."Jackson got out.
"Lorelai? What happened?"
"Labor, hospital. Hurry!" Jackson struggled.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Luke ran into the hospital in a hurry. He was struggling trying to breathe.
"Lorelai! Lorelai Danes!" He yelled.
"Luke!" Sookie exclaimed. "Room 207! Quick!"
Luke ran down the hall into room 207. There he found Lorelai lying on a bed, her knees up and a blanket draped over her bottom half.
"Lorelai, babe."
"Luke." She struggled. "He's…he's not su..pposed to…come…yet."
"I know babe, I know." Luke said wiping her forehead and kissing her softly.
"I'm scared Luke." Lorelai whispered beginning to cry.
"So am I."
"Okay now I need to know who will be in here for the delivery." The nurse asked.
"Me." Luke said. "I will be."
"Anyone else?" The nurse asked. Both Rory and Emily shook their heads. "Okay well then I need you to leave. We are ready for delivery."
Rory and Emily said their goodbyes and left out of the room.
"Luke," Lorelai whispered.
"Huh?" Luke asked holding onto her hand while watching the male doctor set down at the foot of the bed.
"He's an early bird, like his father."
"Okay Lorelai, I need you to push." The doctor said. "Ready. Push!"
Lorelai bit down on her bottom lip and squeezed Luke's hand as she pushed as hard as her body would let her.
"Please make the pain stop." She cried.
"We're almost done. I can see the head." The doctor said as he placed his hands on the baby's head. Luke watched with gritted teeth. "Okay Lorelai. Push!"
Lorelai pushed as hard as she could.
"Okay Lorelai he's almost out. In one more push you'll have a baby boy."
Luke smiled despite his left hand going numb.
"Okay Lorelai take a deep breath." The doctor said. "Lets push on the count of three. One. Two. Three."
Lorelai screamed at the top of her lungs and pushed with all of her might. And as she did a baby boy Danes was born and the cry was heard throughout the room.
Everyone clapped while Lorelai cried. Luke smiled as he saw his son for the first time. His son.
The doctor handed the baby to a nurse to clean him off. And as they did Luke turned to Lorelai.
"We have a baby." Luke smiled kissing her forehead.
"Yep." Lorelai said as she closed her eyes. "Now it's time for bed."
"Lorelai, don't you want to see him?" Luke asked.
"Bed." Lorelai whispered. But as the cry of a baby was heard, her eyes instantly opened.
"Do you have a name?" The nurse asked as she laid the baby on Lorelai's chest.
"Lucas William Richard Danes." Lorelai said smiling as she looked down on her baby boy.
"Ah jeez."
"After his daddy and both of his grandpas." Lorelai smiled rubbing her hand over little Luke's head. "You like it babe?" Lorelai asked looking up at her husband.
"It's perfect." Luke smiled as he knelt down and looked at his son. "He's perfect."
"He looks like you." Lorelai stated.
"No he doesn't." Luke replied looking at his son.
"The nose, the ears. That's all you."
"Your eyes and hair." Luke said. "A perfect mixture."
"A perfect mixture." Lorelai smiled as she looked at her whole package.

Kirk: There's precedent.
