Disclaimer: I still don't own

A/N: On this chapter, I combined two. If I hadn't, you would've gotten a short one and I didn't want to do that to you all. I hope you enjoy this one too!

Lorelai knocked on her daughter's door and waited for Rory to come to the door. When Rory did so, Lorelai jangled the bag. Rory snatched the bag from her mom.

"Three?" Rory asked. "Don't you think that's a little excessive?"

Lorelai raised her eyebrows. "Don't you want to know if you're pregnant or not."

Rory closed her eyes. "Not really."

Lorelai walked into the bathroom and set the three pregnancy tests, a generic brand, Clear Blue and First Response, on the bathroom counter. She then went and took Rory's arm and pulled her into the bathroom. "Now, if you aren't out of here in five minutes I'm coming in after you and making you pee on those sticks!"

Rory rolled her eyes, but knew she had to do it. She waited until her mom closed the door and then went to do what her mom told her.

Rory bit her lip. The alarm just went off a minute ago and she was still sitting on the couch.

Lorelai nudged her daughter. "Well, go on. See what they say."

Rory shook her head. "I can't, Mom. I just can't."

"Rory, I swear," Lorelai said, with an eye roll. "Why can't you?"

"Because I know what they're going to say," Rory told her mom. "This was not supposed to happen! This was not in the plans!"

"Fine," Lorelai grumbled. "I'll go see."

"Well, my dear," Lorelai said as she walked out of the bathroom. "Looks like you're going to have to make new plans."

"What!" Rory said. "No!"

"Three positives, Kid," Lorelai broke the news to her daughter. "Two pink lines, a plus sign and a nice little 'pregnant.'"

"Mom," Rory groaned. "I wasn't ever going to have kids."

"This is what happens when you stop taking your birth control," Lorelai told her daughter. "When do you think it happened? Without giving me too much information. If you are two months along, there is no way this was a honeymoon baby."

Rory sighed. "Well, you remember the night everything went to hell in a hand basket with Grandma? Well, Jess was telling me how much he and everyone else loved me and I asked him to show me, to make me forget. Well, he did…but I guess we forgot something else too."

Lorelai chucked. "How ironic! On the night Mom accuses you of being pregnant, Jess goes and gets you pregnant."

Rory gasped. "Jess! How am I going to tell him! We didn't plan this, we weren't prepared, we aren't prepared!"

"Calm down, Sweets," Lorelai told Rory. "First we need to get you a doctor's appointment and check that you're really pregnant and everything's okay."

Rory's eyes got wide and excited. "You mean, the tests could be wrong?!"

"Three false positives in three different brands is very, very unlikely," Lorelai pointed out. "But, if that's what you want to think, fine. Let me call my OB GYN and we'll figure out if he has an opening."

Rory, still sitting on the couch, squeezed her eyes shut and leaned her head back against the couch. She hated labor, she hated the idea of labor. Before Lorelai had the twins, Rory couldn't even go into the room with her mom because of the contractions Lorelai was sure to be experiencing every few minutes. Not to mention that she couldn't even look at Sookie before she went into labor. Having this child should be rather interesting.

"I. Am. Pregnant." Rory repeated to herself. "I, Rory Gilmore Mariano, am pregnant."

"You convinced yourself yet?" Lorelai asked her daughter. They were in the Jeep, driving to Luke's. They had just left the OB GYN's office, who confirmed that very fact.

"I don't think so," Rory said. "How am I going to tell Jess?"

"Well, you definitely need to go see him," Lorelai decided. "This isn't something that can be accomplished over the phone."

"Are you kidding?" Rory questioned. "I'm almost three months along, perfectly fine, but you know Dad is not going to let me drive down to Boston and back all by myself. Jess will freak if he knows I did that also."

"Well, I could drive you down there and then come back to get you in a week," Lorelai suggested.

"How about we just wait until the last week, I was actually thinking about visiting him during that time anyway. Then he could just bring me back," Rory mentioned.

"I don't think that's such a good idea," Lorelai told her child. "I think you need to tell him as soon as possible."

"Maybe you're right," Rory mused.

"You need to tell him," Lorelai repeated. "As soon as possible. Luke got mad that I waited so long to tell him about Aaron and Emma. In fact, if I hadn't told him when I did the kids would've told him themselves. You and I are both so skinny and I was having twins, they weren't going to stay hidden for much longer."

Rory suddenly looked down at her stomach in fright. "You don't think I'm going to have twins, do you?"

Lorelai laughed. "There's no telling, Kid."

They walked into the diner and Lorelai shouted, "Luuuuuuuuuucas!"

Emma came bursting out of the kitchen. "Mommy, what's wrong?"

"What?" Lorelai inquired.

"Daddy picked us up from school and Daddy never picks us up from school!" Emma reminded her mom. "What's wrong with Rory?"

Lorelai looked over at her daughter and noticed the look on her face went from sheer fright to complete terror. "Rory, what's wrong?"

"I have to tell Dad," Rory whispered. "How do I tell Dad?"

"How do you tell Daddy what?" Emma innocently questioned.

"Oh, Emma," Rory sighed.

"Emma, why don't you get Aaron and you guys can come sit with us," Lorelai suggested, trying to buy her daughter some time. "Then we can order or something."

"Okay," Emma agreed, skipping off.

"Maybe I should just wait," Rory tried. "I mean, shouldn't I tell the father first?"

"In normal situations I would agree," Lorelai said. "But this is hardly normal. You know Emma won't forget. In fact, I have a feeling she's going to wait until Luke is at the table and then mention it again."

Emma and Aaron joined Lorelai and Rory quickly and a few seconds later Luke walked over to the table. He was studying Lorelai intently, because she didn't tell him much on the phone. She just told him he needed to pick up the kids if they were going to get home that day and that was it.

"So, Rory," Emma began. "What's up?"

Rory squeezed her eyes shut. "Oh, Emma," she sighed.

Luke was very confused. "What's going on?"

"You've got to tell him, Kid," Lorelai told Rory.

"Someone better tell me!" Luke exclaimed.

Rory sighed again. She wanted to think of some clever way to tell him, but she couldn't. She knew saying it would make it real, but she knew that Lorelai would flat out refuse to tell him and she didn't need Luke throwing a fit. She could tell he was worried and if someone didn't tell him soon, he would yell and scream.

"Dad…" Rory began and all eyes snapped to her. She quickly connected her blue eyes with her mom's and Lorelai slightly nodded. Rory took a breath. "I'm going to have a baby."

Emma screamed. "No way!"

Lorelai just smiled while Luke and Aaron looked on with mouth's slightly open in shock. When they didn't say anything for a few seconds, Rory began to get nervous. "Dad, how do you feel about this?"

Luke finally got his face from shock to smiling. He was excited, he really was, he just was caught by surprise. "Rory, it's great. Honestly, it is." He came around the table to hug her. "Does Jess know? And I thought you were never going to have kids?"

"I wasn't," Rory confirmed. "It looks like life had other plans. And no, I haven't told Jess yet. I'm going to go down and see him soon and I'll tell him."

"You aren't planning to drive by yourself, are you?" Luke asked. "Because that's not a good idea."

Lorelai rolled her eyes. "No, she's not. I told her I would take her to Boston and then go get her and bring her back."

"Boston?" Emma asked. "Where in Boston?"

Rory knew the tidal wave this would cause. "Harvard."

Emma started bouncing in her seat. "Oh, Mommy can I please go with you?! I want to see Harvard so badly! Besides, how am I going to know if I want to go there or not if I don't go? I'll just die if I never see it before high school and if you're going right there…can't I please go with you?"

"Don't leave me out!" Aaron exclaimed. "I want to go too!"

Lorelai looked at her husband. "We will discuss it and I will let you know. Now, both of you calm down."

"Can we get food?" Rory asked.

"Of course," Luke agreed. "Don't you always. No coffee for you though!"

Rory's eyes widened and Lorelai watched her daughter carefully. She could tell the hormones were about to kick in. With her, she got angry and yelled and screamed until she got the coffee. She wasn't sure how it would be with Rory, but when she saw the beginning of tears, she knew Luke would be bringing her daughter coffee.

"But Dad!" Rory cried, small tears building up in her eyes.

"Hormonal Rory," Lorelai warned Luke. "I got angry when I didn't get my coffee, but I think Rory's going to cry."

"Look at me, Emma and Aaron," Rory pointed out, trying to hold her tears in. There was no need to cry if she could convince Luke without the tears. After all, she was going to have to learn to control her hormones quickly. "We're all fine. Aaron even hates coffee."

"But you and Emma are coffee addicts," Luke said. "If I have anything to do with it, my grandchild is not going to be addicted to caffeine as well!"

"I'll only drink one cup, I promise!" Rory said. "Besides, if you don't give it to me, I'll just go home and drink more coffee, because I'll have to make up for what I didn't drink here."

"I don't think you should drink any at all," Luke said. "I don't want to feed your addiction."

Luke didn't sound like he was going to give in, and Rory couldn't hold her tears in any longer. "Oh, please Dad!" She exclaimed, tears starting to run down her cheeks. "Come on, Mom! Tell him I'll be fine."

"Luke," Lorelai pleaded. "She really will be. And I have a feeling you won't be able to deny hormonal Rory for long, so just keep her from getting upset. It can't be good for her or the baby."

"Daddy!" Emma cried.

It was Aaron though, that finally made Luke cave. "Dad, just…give her some coffee."

Everyone was surprised, but it was Emma who finally voiced their surprise. "Aaron!"

"Well, it's a special occasion," Aaron pointed out. "Gilmore women drink coffee all the time, but especially when they celebrate. If the good news is yours, you should be able to celebrate, with coffee. Besides, if the baby is a girl, it would kind of be a shame if she didn't like coffee."

"Oh, Aaron," Rory sighed. "I love you!"

"Aaron's right, Luke," Lorelai continued to wheedle. She honestly knew her daughter would be fine. She didn't think it was healthy, but she couldn't deny her daughter, especially when she drank coffee herself.

Luke sighed. "When the whole table's against me, especially you, you little traitor," Luke grumbled, sparing a look for Aaron. "What can a guy do? Jess is going to kill me." He walked away to get the coffee.

Rory sighed, wiping her eyes. "I hate being hormonal. He's right. Jess will kill him…after me!"

"Jess is not going to kill you," Lorelai told her daughter. "Not for getting pregnant or for drinking coffee. He won't like it, the coffee I mean, but you'll just have to convince him that you'll be fine. Crying a little for him might help too."

"I didn't cry on purpose!" Rory insisted. "I wasn't going to get coffee, and I really need it after such depressing news. He'd better not give me decaf."

"Rory, its happy news!" Emma told her sister. "And Daddy won't give you decaf. Hi, the nose! Besides, he knows better."

Rory sighed as Aaron went to sit up at the counter to talk to Luke for a few minutes. "Mom!" Rory suddenly exclaimed. "Grandma and Grandpa! How am I going to tell them? Grandma can do math and she'll know…"

Lorelai groaned. "One problem at a time, please! But it won't be a problem. They're in Martha's Vineyard anyway. It's summer. Just tell them when they get back."

"Um, hello, I'll be almost five months pregnant in September," Rory reminded her mom. "I think they'll figure it out for themselves. I have to call them. It would be rude to not even give them a call. Grandma would never forgive me."

"Well, wait a few weeks and then call them," Lorelai suggested. "You'll be three months pregnant then, but you can tell them that when you went to the OB GYN he said you were about two months along."

"They'll think I just went," Rory said.

Lorelai rolled her eyes. "Sweets, that's the point!"

"What if they ask when I went?" Rory questioned.

Lorelai sighed. "Stop looking for trouble. But I don't think they will. They'll definitely want to know what he said, but I don't think they'll get that deep into it."

"And when the baby comes a month earlier than they're expecting?" Rory again questioned.

"It's premature," Lorelai said nonchalantly.

"Even though it looks fully grown…" Rory trailed off, waiting for her mom to fill in the blank.

"That's why it came when it did!" Lorelai supplied.

"Grandma and Grandpa are never going to believe this," Rory moaned.

Lorelai shook her head. "Oh, ye of little faith. You forget all the experience I have with lying to the grandparents."

"And you forget that every time you did, they figured out the truth!" Rory countered.

"Oh, I'm hurt!" Lorelai exclaimed. "Don't borrow trouble!"

"Wait!" Emma broke in. "Lying is wrong!"

Rory looked to her mom with a small smile. Rory was waiting for Lorelai to come up with a brilliant idea to explain this to Emma.

So, how is she going to tell Jess and how will he feel about it? And what about the grandparents? Will they believe Lorelai's lie? And what is Lorelai going to say to Emma about lying? So many great questions. Please review and thanks for reading!
