Author's Note: Whoopee! Another long chapter. Well, a long one for me! I couldn't wait for four more reviews, so here is my gift. Okay, if you want to see the gifts Lorelai got from the baby shower, there is a link on my profile. It has all the pictures and whose gift it was. Oh, and thank you for the reviews and enjoy!
"So what are your plans for today?" Luke asked Lorelai on Saturday morning. She was sitting at the table drinking a cup of half decaf, half regular coffee, after she had bugged Luke for 30 minutes about letting her have some regular coffee. Luke was standing over the stove fixing breakfast for the two of them.
"Well, at 11 I have the baby shower and afterwards me, Sookie and Rory are going to start to plan the wedding. And my mother is probably going to want to stay and help plan to, so I am going to have to deal with her. Ugh, luckily I will have some regular coffee in my system." She said groaning at the thought.
"Wait, you invited your mom to the baby shower?" Luke asked surprised. He scooped some eggs, bacon, and toast on two plates and sat down at the table.
Lorelai took a bit. "I had to, Luke. If I didn't she would find out about it and then I would never hear the end of it."
"If you want to come to, I can bring you guys some food from the diner after the baby shower." He suggested.
"Aww, thanks hon. That would be wonderful. I'll call you when it's over and you can bring something then."
"Sounds good to me." He replied, as they both finished eating their breakfast.
It was 11:00 AM in Stars Hollow, and the guests were arriving at Lorelai's house with their presents. They had all gathered in the living room with the snacks so Lorelai could open the gifts.
"Okay, Sookie, I will open your's first." Lorelai said getting the present from her.
"Oh, yay! I hope you like it." Sookie said. Lorelai took off the wrapping paper to reveal a box with a bunch of plastic food.
"Wow, Sookie. Thanks."
"Yeah, he can be a little chef." Sookie giggled.
"Okay, uh," She got a present from the table and looked to see who it was from, "This one is from Babette." She said as she took out a stuffed cat. "Aww, thanks. It's so cute."
"Your welcome, doll. I thought about gettin' you a real cat, but I wasn't sure if Paul Anka liked 'em." She replied.
"Ah, well, I don't either. Okay, next we have Gypsy. Oh, my, this one is pretty big." She said unwrapping the gift, "A car?" She asked.
"Yeah, he can ride in it. It's just a toy." She explained.
"Oh, well thanks." She smiled. "And now I will open Lulu's." Lorelai took a plastic bag of blocks out of the bag.
"Those blocks have letters on them so you can teach him his ABC's." Lulu said.
"Rory, he may be smarter than you with these blocks." Lorelai teased. Rory just shook her head. "Thanks Lulu. Miss Patty's next," Lorelai opened the box and took out the pair of ballet slippers, "Uh, Miss Patty, you know I'm having a boy right?" She asked confused.
"Well, he can still be a dancer." She exclaimed.
"And get teased by all the other boys? Anyway, April, your gift is next." Lorelai smiled at the youngest guest.
"Well, I wasn't sure what to get so.." She explained. Lorelai examined a pack of three onsies.
"Aww, these are adorable! Thanks April," She said giving the girl a hug. "Mom, I will open your's next." She looked at Emily. In the bag was a set of baby dishes with animals on it.
"I thought that the baby would need something to eat on."
"Well, I love it mom. Thank you." She said before continuing. "And last but not least, well hopefully, we have Rory's gift." She took the last bag from the floor. She opened it and screamed.
"Ahh, Rory! These are so cute!" She screamed revealing a baby-size flannel shirt and baseball cap. "When he is born he can match Luke. Thanks Rory."
"Your welcome, mom. I saw them at the store and I thought 'Hm, that is so cute. Baby William can match his daddy!', so I got them." She explained.
"Ah, I love all of you guys. Thanks so much for the presents. I'm sure this little guy will appreciate them," She said to the group, "Now let's eat some cake!"
After the baby shower was over, they decide to start to plan the wedding. Lorelai was right, Emily had wanted to stay. She had called Luke, and he had come by and dropped off food for them.
"Lorelai, before you do anything else you have to set a date for your wedding." Emily explained after they finished their lunch.
"Luke and I want to get married soon after William's born, so maybe sometime in early January?" Lorelai said.
"Hey, what about January 3rd?" Sookie suggested, "It will after the baby's born and you'll have time to loose the baby fat."
"Hm, I like that. I'm getting married on January 3rd." She smiled thinking about her and Luke married.
"This is so exciting," Rory exclaimed.
"Lorelai, I know this is a little off topic, but exactly how far along are you?" Emily questioned.
"I'm about four and a half months. Why do you ask?" Lorelai asked, confused by her question.
"Are you sure? Not to be judgmental, but you look a little further than four and a half months." Emily explained.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Lorelai asked, still confused.
"Your mom's right, honey, you look about six months pregnant." Sookie said.
"Look, I can't be six months pregnant, okay? The baby must be really big." She said, getting worried.
"Maybe you should get another check-up just to make sure, mom." Rory suggested.
"It's probably nothing guys. Now let's get back to planning my wedding." Lorelai ordered, trying to drop the subject. Because, honestly, the thought was starting to worry her.
To be continued…
Author's Note: Hmm? Is she really pregnant with Luke's baby? Or is it something else? The answer is… to keep reading! And leave reviews! Because I want five before I continue. I am serious this time. Ahh. I love having power.
