Disclaimer: All I own is my two stories and the baby!
Author's Note: Yayy! I upated quickly. And this chapter is longer. I really apreciate all the reviews guys. Thanks a lot.
"Well, uh, I, er-"Luke mumbled nervously.
"Come on, Luke, what's up?" Lorelai asked worriedly, "You can tell me anything. I promise-, wait scratch that, I can't promise you I won't laugh."
"Okay, well, here it goes," He said, stopping on the path and reaching into his pocket, "Lorelai, will you marry me?" He asked, revealing a navy velvet box.
"Oh, my Luke. Uh, this is- this is wow." She managed to get out.
"Jeez, I knew this would be a bad idea," Luke ranted while Lorelai looked on confused, "But, I just wanted to let you know that I don't want to get married to you because of this baby, but because, well, I love you."
"No, Luke, I love that you proposed. And my answer is yes." She smiled. He slipped the ring on her finger. She admired it with teary eyes. "Oh my god, Luke it's beautiful!" She cried and kissed Luke sweetly.
He broke a way after a few seconds. "Thanks, it's actually my mom's. I found it in the top of my closet three weeks ago. I thought we were doing good so I decided I would propose when the time was right."
"Aww, you're so sweet! Ha, Luke Jr. will be lucky to have you as a dad." She joked.
"Lorelai, there is no way that kid's name is going to be Luke Jr." He scolded her as they started to walk back to where the car was parked.
"Ah, whatever. Speaking of names, what's this little guy going to be called?"
"Well, I don't know. Aren't women supposed to figure that out?" He asked as they arrived at the truck. He helped her get into the car before closing the door and heading towards the drivers side.
"Oh,oh, I got it! How about we name him Will? You know like after your father?" She asked.
"That would be great." He said and they drove to the store.
After telling Rory the news about the engagement, Lorelai and Luke drove to a couple of stores and got clothes for the baby and some more maternity clothes for Lorelai. Then, they went back to the house to get ready for the town meeting.
"I can't wait to tell the town the good news." Lorelai said as they were walking up the stairs.
"Yeah, well I'm not. This town is full of lunatics, they will go on about this for weeks. This feels like telling them you're pregnant all over again." Luke ranted as they took their seats.
Taylor got behind the podium and quieted the crowd with his gavel. "People, please quiet down. I have a certain issue to address before Luke and Lorelai share some news with us."
A mixtures of "Cut to it" and "Seriously, Taylor" could be heard throughout the room.
"Well, I think we should have a new festivity near the middle of July to attract tourists. I call it 'Summer Festival of Fun'. There will be games and we can sell ice cream from my shop."
"This town does not need another damn festival, Taylor. No one cares!" Luke yelled.
"Now, Luke, we don't need your two sense. All in favor raise your hand," Only Kirk and Taylor raised their hands, "Fine, but if the tourist rate goes down, it was because we didn't do this. Keep that in mind. Now, Luke and Lorelai, you make have the floor."
Lorelai stood up and dragged Luke to the front of the room with her. "Okay, guys, today Luke and I went to the doctor and we found out," Lorelai stopped for a dramatic pause and Luke rolled his eyes, "That we are having a boy!" Lorelai smiled. The whole town clapped and cheered.
"There's more." Luke said, making the crowd go silent again.
"Yeah, there is more," Lorelai repeated, getting the crowd more excited, "First off, I just wanted to invite all you ladies to the baby shower on Saturday morning at 11. And the next part is that Luke and I are getting married again!" She shouted hoping to get the same reaction.
But the crowd was quiet besides a few murmurs from people. "Are you guys not happy we're getting married?" Lorelai asked, obviously a little hurt.
"Well, you do have a little bit of a rough history." Taylor interrupted. The town nodded their heads in agreement.
"Come on, we are going to stay together this time! We're having a son together for Christ's sake. Please, just be happy for us." Lorelai tried.
An 'Ah, what the hell!' was heard from someone in the crowd and suddenly everyone was cheering for Luke and Lorelai's engagement. Luke who was standing beside Lorelai still just rolled his eyes and mumbled something about a 'stupid town'.
When the town meeting was over, they went back to the house again. Lorelai and Luke were on the couch watching a random movie Lorelai had rented the day before..
"You know, the acting in this movie is just plain funny. I mean, not the lines that they say, just the acting. It's just such bad acting, it makes them hilarious. Don't you think so, Luke?" He didn't answer. "Lukey?"
"Lorelai please don't call me that. And what do you want?" He asked her, his eyes still fixated on the television screen.
Lorelai paused the movie. "I want to talk about when we should have our wedding." She said turning to face him.
"Well, you want to have the wedding after the baby's born, right?"
"Uh, yeah. I don't want to be fat on my wedding day. So, or little boy is due in early December, so we could always do it later that month or early in January. Ooh! And we can get married in the church!" Lorelai suggested, getting excited at the thought.
"That sounds great Lorelai. But we can figure the rest out tomorrow. Now let's finish watching the movie."
"Ah, okay," She said, leaning back against Luke. She grabbed the bowl of popcorn and continued the movie from where it was paused.
To be continued…
I hoped you liked this chapter. I tried to make it a little longer than the other two. If you want to see what the engagement ring looks like, I have the link to the picture on my profile. Also, I would like 5 reviews before I post the next chapter. Gracias!!
