Luke Danes and Logan Huntzberger, though on separate sides of the country, sympathized with one another and finally had a reason to get along. They both had to deal with pregnant Gilmore girls, who were normally crazy when hormones weren't raging through their body, but the added craziness their pregnancies gave was shocking. The girls didn't know, but Luke and Logan talked on the phone at least once a week in those next few months as their girlfriends, trading ideas how to pacify their emotions and deal with the cravings and mood swings. Luke could only imagine what Lorelai would say if she knew their secret.
He originally had never been a huge fan of Logan, he was rich kid, a prick who didn't seem to care about anyone but himself, and Luke thought Rory could do so much better. He didn't start to even accept Logan until their weekend at Martha's Vineyard for Valentines Day almost two years ago. That weekend, showed Luke how much Logan cared for Rory, and began to accept the idea he could very possibly be his future stepson-in-law.
Now, here he was, back to that mind set and thrilled with it. He was planning on proposing to Lorelai, he was just biding his time, waiting for the right moment.
When they had first found out about Rory's pregnancy they were shocked. Lorelai especially. It was hard for her to accept, they fact that her now oldest daughter, was going to have a child herself, but they were being supportive. Rory was finally happy again, with the man she loves and what were they to say against that? They were now dicussing every moment of thier pregnancy over the phone constantly, completely unaware the males were doing the same.
It was now August, Lorelai was fourteen weeks along, and the cravings and mood swings seemed to be getting worse. Luke knew she missed Rory and her emotional swings came partially from that. During their talk last week, Logan shared with him how depressed Rory was getting being away from Stars Hollow and her mom, especially right now, being pregnant. They had to do something and soon, if they wanted to keep their sanity.
"Luke," Lorelai called as she came into the diner that afternoon. She was smiling brightly, her slightly rounded stomach peeping out from underneath her favorite tee shirt. "Can I get some chili fries, with a side of broccoli?"
"Broccoli huh?" Luke asked his eyebrows raised.
"Hey, this is your kid. Apparently little boy or girl Danes is going to be a health freak just like daddy."
"I'm not complaining," Luke assured her with a kiss, "if I would have known that getting you knocking you up would make you eat better I wouldn't have done it ten years ago."
"Ha-ha, very funny," Lorelai scoffed and she started in on the food Luke placed in front of her, complete with a cup of decaf coffee.
"Can't I have just one regular cup? Please Luke," Lorelai begged after taking a drink. She hated decaf and drank it only because Luke had banned anything with caffeine from her diet.
"Nope," was he immediate answer, "not till our kid is born Lorelai."
"Party pooper."
"Just trying to keep you healthy."
"I know," Lorelai said her voice turned suddenly soft and Luke sighed. Here was a prime example of how quickly her emotions would turn. "You are so amazingly good to me."
She choked back tears and Luke was glad he had learned how to control the urge to laugh when moments like this came. Her emotions really were like a rollercoaster, one minute she was happy and laughing, the next she was crying, and the next she could be as mad as a bear, dealing with them came with the understanding that she didn't have much control over them.
"Hey," he said, walking around the counter to pull her into his arms, "you are carrying my baby, I have to be amazing to you. Love you."
The last words were whispered against her ear and he could feel her smile against his cheek.
"Love you too."
After a few moments of silence, Luke pulled away slightly and looked into her eyes. "So, what do you have planned for the rest of today?"
"Home and a movie probably, you sure you can't get off an earlier. You do run the place you know."
"I know, but with Zach just getting back from his tour I gave him some extra time off to spend time with Lane and the kids. That coupled with Caesar's vacation, I've got to be here. Sorry."
"It's okay," Lorelai pouted, "just plan on making it up to me later."
"I will," Luke said huskily, "you can't count on that."
With a giggle, Lorelai shoved the last bite of her chili fries into her mouth before kissing him and heading towards the door.
"I'm going to hold you to that, Mr. Danes."
"Wouldn't have it any other way." Yup, Lorelai being pregnant wasn't all bad, not one little bit.
--------------------
"You can't possibly expect me to eat that," Rory exclaimed starting at the concoction that Logan placed in front of her.
"You're cravings have changed again huh?" Logan asked, picking up the bowl, consisting of pickles, marshmallow fluff, and ketchup. He gagged even thinking about the strange mixes.
"I guess," Rory expressed, her blues eyes getting dark. "I'm sorry Logan; you must be ready to kill me."
"Eh, I wouldn't want to kill you," Logan said and kissed her forehead. "I'm actually relieved you aren't eating this."
"You're so amazing, what would I do without you?"
"Have to fix your own meals?" he suggested and they both laughed. "I'm glad you finally agreed to move in here."
"Me too," Rory agreed, "sorry it took so long."
"Don't worry about it," Logan assured her. When they had found out about the baby Logan instantly thought about proposing again, but then quickly decided against it. He didn't want Rory to think that he was proposing just because of the baby, he needed more time to convince her and prove to her that he was going to be there for good. He'd suggested she move in though and it had taken over a month to convince her. She officially moved in with him August first and for the past week and half they'd gotten accustomed to living together again.
He wanted to marry her, but he would wait until she was ready. No matter how long it would take.
"Logan," Rory started and when he looked at her he saw the tears in her eyes. "I miss my mom."
Logan wrapped his arms around her for comfort, this topic becoming a regular reason for tears in their household.
"I know Ace," Logan whispered, he wondered if now would be a good time to bring up the idea he had to alleviate this problem. "What if we moved back?"
Rory froze the second the words left his mouth, unsure she actually heard him correctly.
"Wh…what?"
"What if we moved back to Connecticut?" Logan asked again, looking directly into her eyes. "It would put us much closer to your family, which I know you want. You are your mom would have each other for a doubled support system."
"But what about your job? What about my job?" Rory asked the idea certainly had possibilities.
"I've already talked to my partners and worked it out for me to work long distance. I would have to do some traveling, but mostly I'd be working from a home office, that the glories of running an online company. You can always get a job at a newspaper in Hartford or somewhere near by…"
"You would do that for me?"
"I would do anything for you," Logan told her honestly as he placed a kiss on her cheek. "What do you think?"
"I…I like that idea, a lot. It would be so great to be close to my mom, for the baby too."
"I'll start making the arrangements on Monday."
"Thank you Logan! Thank you so much." Rory exclaimed throwing her arms around his neck. "You really are amazing."
"Thank you, I know." Logan teased pulling her in for a deep kiss.
--------------------
"I've made the arrangements," Logan said into the phone, "we're officially moving back."
"Thank god," Luke replied, "Lorelai is going to be thrilled."
"You can't tell her yet, Rory wants to surprise her."
"What?" he asked, is he serious?
"Yup, no matter what I say I can't convince her to just tell Lorelai over the phone. She wants to do it in person," Logan affirmed. They'd been back and forth and Rory held her ground. She wanted to just show up at home and announce their move back. Logan finally relented and dropped the subject, tired of fighting her on it.
"That sounds like a Gilmore girl," Luke said chuckling. "When will you be back?"
"Her last day at the Chronicle is Friday; the mover's are heading back on Friday, which means we may need a place to crash Saturday night after we get in."
"You can always come and stay with us," Luke offered.
"Most likely we'll stay with my sister Honor and her husband Josh in Hartford. Rory will want to be rested when we hit Stars Hollow."
"Okay, sounds good. Have you found an apartment?"
"Yup, it isn't to far from Rory's office at the Courant."
"She got the job there officially?" Luke asked, knowing she'd put in for a job there last week.
"That is what clichéd the move for us," Logan explained. "Once she found out she had it, she was so ready to go."
"I'm glad; this is going to do good for both of them."
"And us," Logan added and they both laughed.
"Very true, well, I'll talk you this weekend then. Let me know if you need anything."
"Sure, thanks Luke."
"No problem, now wish me luck, I'm off to the doctor's with Lorelai."
"Good luck and remember, don't spill the beans."
"I won't, bye." Luke placed the phone on the receiver, glad to know that they were moving back. It would help relieve the stress of both women and therefore make their pregnancies much easier.
--------------------
"I hate doctor's offices," Luke complained to Lorelai quietly as they waited for the nurse to come back with the ultrasound machine.
"Luke," Lorelai interrupted, "stop complaining. We are going to get to hear our baby's heartbeat today. I'm so excited."
"I know you are Lorelai, I am too."
"Alright Miss Gilmore," the nurse announced her presence again. "Are you set to hear your baby's heartbeat?"
"I am," Lorelai exclaimed happily. As the nurse prepared her Luke just squeezed her hand softly, amazed they were here together, at a doctor's appointment for their child.
"Okay mom and dad, that sound right there is the heartbeat," the nurse told them and Luke couldn't help but smile.
Lorelai noticed when the nurse's face changed as she moved the machine around her stomach.
"Is something wrong?" she asked, almost afraid of the answer.
"No, but I want the doctor to hear something. I'll be right back." They watched as she poked her head out the door calling to Lorelai's doctor, Doctor Grey, to come back to their room.
"What is it Mary?" Doctor Grey asked as he adjusted his glassed.
"I want you to listen to this," she answered, putting the machine against Lorelai's stomach again. Pointing to the screen she told the doctor, "Look."
"Hum, well," Doctor Grey answered, peering at the screen intently.
"What is it?" Luke asked, the words barely forming.
"It seems Mr. Danes, Miss Gilmore, that you are having twins."
Luke hit the floor.
