Hey guys sorry about the long wait, I've been super busy with work and my personal life. But here is the next chapter! Its a little shorter than recent chapters but I still think you will like it. I will try and update again within the next few days! I hope the last authors note cleared up any confusion about the chapters. This is technically chapter 16 so don't get confused again, okay? Thanks!
Luke woke up to the sun streaming in through the unfinished walls and windows in his soon to be bedroom. It took him a minute to remember where he was, but he smiled despite the creaks in his bones when he saw the mass of curly black hair beside him. Rolling over he wrapped his arm around Lorelai's middle and nuzzled her hair, breathing in the familiar scent of her shampoo. He brushed his lips against the crown of her head and reminded himself just how lucky he was to have her.
She stirred for a moment and he thought she had woken up, but he chuckled to himself when he heard her mumble something that sounded a lot like coffee before rolling onto her stomach and beginning to sleep again. He smiled, kissed the back of her head once and then quietly pulled himself up off the floor. He tiptoed around the room to gather his clothes and then slipped back downstairs and out the hole that would be the front door.
It was only around 5 in the morning when he checked his watch, he had plenty of time to run to the Diner and get her breakfast before the workers would be coming to the house. He slipped in the back, gathered some bagels for them, tea for himself and coffee for Lorelai and then slipped back out of the Diner. He was glad he had asked Lane to open today, he wanted some more time alone with Lorelai.
He quietly snuck back into the unfinished house and found his sleeping fiancé in the same spot he had left her in. He pulled over a box from the corner of the room and placed it near her sleeping form and put the bagels and his tea on it. Then he walked over to her, knelt down next to Lorelai and held the cup of coffee out in front of her with the lid off.
"Mmmm…" She mumbled sleepily. "Luke?" He watched her turn her head push her hair out of her face and blink up at him a few times. "Angel…"
He laughed, "I knew this would wake you up…"
"You should see yourself right now…the sun is streaming in through the window behind you and making you and that glorious cup of coffee glow. Truly the vision of an angel." She said pulling herself up with the sheet around her a she yawned. "My angel…"
He smiled and leaned forward to kiss her softly, "Good morning…"
When he tried to pull away she only pulled him back. "I love you…" She whispered against his lips, "I love you so much."
He smiled and pulled away, "I love you too…"
Her smile faltered and she shrugged sadly, "I just wanted to make sure you knew that after my minor freak out yesterday…"
"Hey…we talked about everything. It's okay. We're okay…" He whispered leaning up to rub her shoulders to help ease her worries.
"I know…I just still feel bad that I pushed you away." She said with a heavy sigh. "I don't' ever want to make you doubt how I feel about you…how much you mean to me."
"I didn't…and I won't." He said leaning forward to kiss her again, "Now come here and have something to eat. We need to clean up and head out soon before the guys get here."
She smiled and watched him begin to pull out the bagels for them, "You mean you don't want the guys to see our little impromptu love nest?"
He groaned, "No. They saw enough of you when you stepped out of the shower when they worked on the old house. They don't need anymore free shows…"
She giggled and plopped down his lap much to his surprise, "You don't want to share me?" She asked as she pulled the coffee from him.
He squeezed her hips gently, "Hell no. No one gets to see the goods but me. Remember?"
She smiled and nuzzled his nose affectionately, "I remember…"
He chuckled as she wiggled around in his lap some more, "You comfy? Because there is a perfectly good spot for you to sit in right on the other side of this box."
She shook her head, "Nope. I'm good. I happen to find this position incredibly comfortable thank you very much!"
He only laughed more and shook his head, "Whatever makes you happy dear…"
She beamed up at him, "You make me happy."
He smiled sweetly back at her, "Good. That's all I ever want to do."
She smiled and turned back to the bagels that were sitting on the box beside her, "When did you run out and get these?"
"Just before you woke up…I figured I'd need a bribe to get you to wake up. If I had had time I would have made you some waffles but I didn't want to risk having you wake up without me or Lane seeing me when she came in to open." He said with a shrug, "Hope this is okay."
"It's perfect." She said as she ripped off a piece of a bagel and fed it to him, "Look at us having our first meal together in our new home."
He took a few moments to chew and then swallow before smirking, "And last night we got to christen our bedroom…more than once."
She giggled and took her own bite of bagel, "Mhm…those poor guys will be working in here today not even aware of the fact that very dirty things happened here last night."
"Well we can just keep it as our little secret okay?" He said with a teasing wink.
"Our dirty little secret…" She said leaning in towards him again.
"Careful Lorelai…you're in a very precarious position." He said with a warning tone, "If you keep wiggling I'll be ripping that sheet off you in no time…"
She smiled sexily at him and put her bagel down, "You don't have to rip it off…" She let the white sheet fall around her, exposing herself to him. "You can have me whenever you want me…I'm all yours."
Luke hissed through his teeth as he watched the rising sun shine against her milky skin, "God you are beautiful… "
She smiled and wiggled some more against him, "Think we have some more time before the guys get here? I think we need to practice a little more so this room knows exactly what to expect once we move in."
Luke smiled eagerly at her and lay back and pulled her with him, "Commere crazy lady…"
Giggling, Lorelai beamed down at him as she braced her hands on either side of his head. And as he smiled up at her she couldn't remember ever feeling this happy and complete…
Later that afternoon, Lorelai was in her office going through the inventory list. It was a little before lunch and she felt her stomach begin to rumble letting her know that she was hungry. She didn't think to much of it since she and Luke had had an early breakfast and their had run out of time to finish eating after their love making had taken up the rest of the morning.
She tried to ignore it as she filled out some more papers but when the grumbling got louder, she knew she at least needed to have a snack. Standing up, she organized her paperwork and then headed into the kitchen where Sookie was prepping for lunch.
"Hey hon." Sookie said smiling up at her, "I didn't see you come in this morning. Everything okay? Yesterday was a hard day…"
"Yeah. I just sort of lost track of time this morning and was in a rush. I didn't get to come in here to say hi." She said with a happy smile on her face.
Sookie stopped chopping and smirked up at her, "You did something dirty this morning."
Lorelai laughed, "Sookie…"
"You did! I can see it on your face! In fact I haven't seen that face in a while…that 'I just got laid so good last night that I could walk on water face'!" Sookie said with a laugh, "I only ever see that face when you are with Luke…"
Lorelai blushed and shrugged, "That's because Luke is the best lover I've ever had…"
Sookie sighed happily, "I am so happy that you two are back together…"
Lorelai glanced up at her and nodded once, swallowing the lump in her throat that always formed when she thought of how she almost lost him forever. "Me too Sooks. Me too…"
Sookie smiled again and then went back to chopping, "So, you want some coffee? There is a new pot over there…" She said pointing her knife towards the far counter.
Lorelai shook her head, "No. I'm actually just super hungry, didn't eat much this morning. I need a snack before I head over to the Diner for lunch." Lorelai glanced around the kitchen trying to decide what to eat.
Sookie nodded, "That's because you were doing dirty, dirty things this morning. No time to eat when you are all wrapped up in hunky Luke Danes!"
"Sookie!" Lorelai said with a gentle laugh as she reached into the fruit bowl and took a green apple from it. "God you're bad…"
"Well I…" Sookie stopped mid sentence when she saw Lorelai bite into the apple. "What are you doing?"
Lorelai chewed the piece in her mouth and swallowed, "Having a snack…"
"Lorelai you're eating an apple…" Sookie said pointing the knife at her. "You never eat apples! You hate them unless they are baked in pies!"
Lorelai stopped and glanced down at the fruit in her hand and gasped, "Oh my God…"
Sookie began to hop up and down, the knife in her hand flailed all around, "Oh my god! Oh my God! Oh my GOD!"
Lorelai quickly put the apple down on the counter and nervously glanced at her friend, "Okay can you put the knife down before one of us gets hurt please?"
Sookie quickly discarded the knife and walked closer to Lorelai, "Honey…do you think you could-"
Lorelai's face reddened, "No. No, there's no way I'm pregnant!"
Sookie shrugged, "You don't know that…I mean you and Luke have been basking in the glow of your reconciliation and the engagement. You said yourself you've been 'together' a lot lately…"
Lorelai swallowed nervously, "Yeah but…still. I don't know…"
"Well have you been using protection? I know Christopher wanted you to go off the pill while you were together, did you do that?" Sookie asked.
Lorelai grimaced, "Oh my God…I honestly have completely forget about it lately. With everything going on my brain has been so rattled I never even thought about it once. And…" She sighed, "We haven't always been careful…"
"Lorelai…" Sookie said reaching for her hand, "I mean…we don't know for sure if you are. But you did say that when you were pregnant with Rory you did crave apples a lot. And if you were pregnant with Luke's baby it would probably be a freak and crave healthy foods. But I mean…if you are pregnant…" She shrugged, "That wouldn't be such a bad thing would it?"
Licking her lips, Lorelai fell down into the stool beside her. "No…not really. But...there's just been so much going on and everything has happened so fast. Luke and I do want kids but maybe this is too soon. We haven't gotten married yet or finished building the house. I don't know if we are ready for a baby…"
"Well luckily it takes more than a few weeks to grow a baby so you do have some time still." Sookie said with a giggle.
Lorelai smiled weakly, "Sookie…"
"Honey…we don't even know if you are yet. Lets calm down, I didn't mean to freak you out. But I do know how much you want to have another kid…especially with Luke." Sookie said with a shrug, "Right?"
"I do want another kid…especially with Luke. But…what if he isn't ready? What if he thinks it's to soon? What if he wants to you know…be married for awhile before we start a family?" Lorelai asked as her brain continue to run wild.
"Slow down…" Sookie said as she squeezed her hand, "You need to take a test first before we start thinking about this. Why don't we run to the store and do it together?"
Lorelai grimaced, "I think this is something I should do with Luke…"
Sookie nodded, "Okay. Well you know I'm here…you can call me as soon as you find out. And no matter what happens I'm going to support you."
Lorelai smiled, "Thanks Sooks…"
"But I don't think you have much to worry about. If you are pregnant I think Luke is going to be really happy…" Sookie said with a smile.
Lorelai took a deep breath, "I hope so…" She paused, "Or he could be disappointed if I'm not pregnant. Oh God what if I can't get pregnant?"
"Okay…" Sookie said walking up behind her, "Come on…you need to go see Luke now. You're going to drive yourself crazy. Remember…everything is going to be fine either way…Luke loves you and you love him."
Lorelai turned back towards the table and grabbed the apple, "I forgot how damn stressful this is!"
Sookie laughed, "And this is only the beginning…"
Lorelai sighed and went out to finish up some work before heading to Luke's. She left a few minutes early and drove to the pharmacy to pick up a pregnancy test. Then she slipped it into her purse and parked outside the Diner. When she walked in she smiled and waved slowly at him, he waved back but noticed the hesitant look on her face.
"Hey…" He whispered as he stepped over to her, "You okay? You look scared…"
She licked her lips, "Can you get away for a few minutes? I need to talk to you upstairs…"
Luke watched her for a moment before nodding slowly, "Okay…yeah. I'll meet you upstairs in a few minutes."
Lorelai nodded and kissed his cheek before walking upstairs and straight into the bathroom. She knew she probably should have waited for Luke but the suspense was literally killing her. She took out three different tests and read the instructions before preparing to take them. Then she placed them on the sink and washed her hands just as she heard Luke walk into the apartment.
"So…what's going on?" Luke whispered as he walked closer to her.
Lorelai took his hand and led him towards the couch, "Um…how would you feel about starting a family sooner rather than later?"
Luke's eyes widened, "What?"
Lorelai sighed, "I was really hungry and I went in to have a snack in the kitchen at work and I reached for an apple…"
Luke squinted at her, "An apple? Okay…well how does that have anything to do with having a family?"
"When I was pregnant with Rory I craved apples all the time. So Sookie pointed that out and then I started thinking…and I realized we haven't been using protection and I haven't been taking my pill." She tried to read Luke's expression but he seemed to be trying to understand what she was saying and his face looked blank. "I'm sorry…I should have been more careful. But with everything going on it was honestly the last thing on my mind…"
Luke reached up to adjust his cap, "So…wait…do you know for sure if you are pregnant? Or are you just guessing right now?"
"I just took three tests…" She glanced at the clock on the wall, "In about ten minutes we will know for sure…"
"Wow…" Luke whispered looking around his apartment. "I mean…" He huffed softly, "Wow…" He said again.
Lorelai felt the tears burning in her eyes, "God Luke I'm so sorry…I'm so sorry! I keep screwing things up! I can't-"
He quickly turned his head to look at her, "What are you apologizing for?"
She licked her lips nervously as a few tears fell from eyes, "I just…you're not ready. Right? You don't want this and-"
Luke shook his head and scooted closer to her, "Whoa. No…no wait a second. I was just shocked…but its not that I don't want this. I do want this…I want to have a family with you. It doesn't matter if it's now or in a year from now…it just surprised me. That's all…"
"So…if I am pregnant you won't be mad at me?" Lorelai whispered nervously.
Luke smiled sadly at her, "Oh Lorelai…no. Of course I won't be mad at you." He said as he leaned forward to kiss her gently. "Not at all…"
She breathed a sigh of relief and leaned further into him, "Oh Luke…"
He kissed the side of her face and rubbed her back gently, "It's okay…I've got you."
Lorelai held him close and nuzzled his neck gently, "I just got so scared…last time I went through this it was so scary and Christopher and I didn't know what to do. I was so alone and-"
"Well you aren't alone anymore…" Luke whispered as he gave her a squeeze, "Whether you are pregnant or you aren't…we're in this together. You're not a sixteen year old kid anymore having to go through this by yourself."
She sighed against him and traced the lines on his flannel shirt, "I'm so thankful that I have you Luke…"
He smiled and kissed the top of her curly head, "Well I'm thankful to have you too…"
She sighed and pulled back, leaning against the couch so she could stare at him. "I took the pregnancy test at school…" She laughed, "And then when it came back positive I ditched for the rest of the day and literally just walked around for hours."
"You must have been scared…" Luke whispered reaching up to push some hair out of her face.
She smiled sadly, "I thought my parents were going to kill me…" She paused and looked down at her hands, "I love Rory with all my heart but sometimes I do wonder what my life would have been like if I never got pregnant. But to be honest I don't think it would have been a very good life…"
"What do you mean?" He asked curiously, she never really talked about that part of her life and he was interested to see what she had gone through.
Lorelai shrugged, "I don't know…I mean even though I was always rebellious I sometimes think that without Rory I would have just followed my parents path for me. Maybe I'd me some bitter housewife with a drinking problem living in some huge house in Hartford while my husband pretends to play golf but really is banging his twenty-two year old secretary…"
Luke chuckled, "You've always had a very vivid imagination…"
She smiled up at him, "Yeah well…that's just what I picture when I think of that world. I mean don't get me wrong…" She laughed, "I was terrified when I looked down at that test and saw that it was positive. I didn't know what the hell I was going to do but," She smiled and shrugged, "Once I held Rory in my arms I knew she was my way out…I knew that I didn't' need my parents or anyone else as long as I had her. She saved me…"
Luke smiled at her, "You're an amazing mother Lorelai…Rory is so lucky to have you as a mother. And if you are pregnant now…our future kid is going to be just as lucky."
Lorelai smiled and leaned forward to kiss him, "Actually they will be even luckier because they get you as a Dad too."
Luke smiled at her as she pulled away, "You think I'll be good at it?"
"Of course! You are so great with Rory and April, how could you not be with another kid?" She asked tilting her head to look up at him.
He sighed and glanced down at his hands feeling embarrassed, "I never had to deal with either of them when they were babies. I'm not good with babies…they make a lot of noise and they have the jam hands and all that…I wouldn't know what do with it."
Lorelai giggled, "Aw hon…I didn't know what the hell I was doing when I had Rory. I made a million mistakes, especially in the early years but you learn along the way. I've seen you with Davey and Marth and even little Doula…" She beamed at him, "You look so good holding a baby…and one you have your own baby in your hands you'll figure it out. I know you'll be great…"
Luke looked back up at her, "You really think so?" He asked hopefully.
"I know so…" She said rubbing his leg, "This is your second chance Luke…if we are pregnant then you get to see what its like from the very beginning."
He smiled sadly, "I wish I had had that with April…I still feel guilty."
Lorelai shook her head, "You know it's not your fault that you weren't there. Ann chose not to tell you…you had no way of knowing Luke. You can't beat yourself up for that for the rest of your life. April knows you love her…she knows that you would have been there if you knew about her."
"Yeah…I guess you're right." He whispered shrugging slightly.
They sat quietly for a few minutes thinking about the possibilities of either outcome. If she was pregnant, their family was about to grow a lot sooner than they had expected. They still had time of course to finish the house and they would be married by the time the baby was born. They both wanted this, and they weren't getting any younger.
But on the other hand…if she wasn't pregnant what did that mean since they weren't using protection? Would she not be able to have children? This would give them time to enjoy the beginning of married life for awhile but waiting any longer could be a problem too.
Lorelai bit her lip and leaned against Luke and snuggled into his chest, "Hey Luke?"
"Yeah?" He whispered as he held her close.
"I think I want it to be positive…" She whispered against him as she held him tightly, "I think I want to have a baby…now."
Luke smiled against the side of her head and gave her a gentle squeeze. "Well good…because I think I want it to be positive too."
She pulled away and took a deep breath, "I mean I'm not getting any younger…now would probably be a good time. But…I mean I did panic when Sookie brought it up today. I was so afraid you wouldn't be ready…and maybe we aren't ready. I mean I wasn't ready last time I was pregnant and it turned out okay…"
Luke shrugged, "Well there has been a lot going on lately but I think we are ready Lorelai…just like we said with the engagement…no more waiting."
She nodded once, "Okay…"
Rubbing her shoulders gently he glanced over at the clock, "Lets just see what the tests say okay? Then we can talk more about it…"
Lorelai nodded again and then stood up as she went to walk back towards the bathroom. She stopped outside the door and held onto the doorframe and took a few deep breaths.
"Lorelai?" He whispered as he walked up behind her and placed a hand on her back.
She turned back towards him, "What if I'm not pregnant?"
"Well then we will deal with that too…" He whispered as he smiled encouragingly at her, "No matter what we will deal with it…"
She tried to smile, "Okay…"
"Do you want me to look first?" Luke asked her as he stared down at into her eyes.
She nodded mutely and stepped aside and over towards Luke's bed. She sat down on the edge and watched him walk towards the bathroom; it felt like he was in there for hours before he walked back out with his hands in his pockets.
She took a shaky breath, "Well?"
"A positive sign means pregnant right?" He asked with his head cocked to the side.
Her heart started to pound in her chest and she leaned forward on the bed, 'Yes…"
He took a deep breath and smiled, "Okay…"
She stood up quickly and walked over to him, "Okay? Okay what? Okay I'm pregnant or okay I'm not?"
He smiled and pulled her by her hands towards him and kissed her passionately. "Okay you're pregnant…"
Her eyes widened and then she jumped up and wrapped her arms around his neck tightly. Her loud pitch squeal pierced his ears but at the moment he didn't care. He held her close as she wrapped her legs around his waist.
"We're having a baby!" Lorelai yelled excitedly.
Luke chuckled and leaned her back to look at her, "Yeah…we're having a baby."
She squealed again and quickly grabbed his face in her hands to give him tiny kisses all along his face. "Baby, we're having a baby!"
Luke laughed as she smothered him with her soft lips and he guided them over towards the bed, making sure to place her down gently. "Lorelai…"
Tears sprung from her eyes, her head fell back against the mattress and she gulped quickly before covering her face with her hands. "Oh my God…"
Luke held himself up over her and frowned slightly at the sudden change in her reaction, "Lorelai? Hey…what is it? Why are you crying?"
She felt him pull her hands away from her face and she smiled despite the tears continuing to fall. "Oh Luke…we're going to be a real family." She said in a chocked voice.
His frown quickly turned into a smile as he realized they were tears of happiness and not of sadness. "Oh honey…"
"That's all I've ever wanted…a real family." She hiccupped and put a hand over her mouth as she giggled through the tears. "God I love you so much."
He smiled and used his thumb to brush away her tears, "I love you too…"
She took a few deep breaths before she leaned up to wrap her arms around his neck. "We're having a baby…we're getting married and building a beautiful house and we're having a baby."
He held her close and breathed in the familiar sweet smell of her, "The whole package…" He whispered.
She smiled against the curve of his neck and nodded her head slowly, "The whole package…"
He smiled and pulled away from her again, bracing his hands on either side of her head to hold himself up. "I told you you'd get it someday…"
She beamed up at him as the tears continued to fall, and she leaned a hand up to stroke the stubble on his cheek. "Yeah…you did."
"I was always hoping it would be me who you had it with too…I just never thought I'd be lucky enough though." He said staring down at her with admiration. "But you're really having my baby…"
"According to those three pregnancy tests…yes I am." She said pulling him down to kiss her again. "I'm having your baby."
Saying the words out loud seemed to make the truth sink in deeper for Luke. He pulled away and sat up on the bed as he stared down at her in disbelief. Lorelai watched him for a moment and noticed how his eyes automatically fell on her stomach.
"You okay?" She whispered reaching for his hand to give it an affectionate squeeze.
His eyes darted up to her again and he smiled to reassure her as he nodded once. Then he looked back down at he belly and reached a gentle hand out to push her shirt up. She shivered as his fingers slid against her smooth skin but she smiled when she saw him lean forward and place a soft kiss directly above her bellybutton.
"You're having my baby…" He glanced up at her with a radiant smile and shook his head in disbelief, "You. Lorelai Gilmore. You are having my baby."
She smiled and rested one arm behind her head and reached the other out to him, she ran her hand through his hair and smiled. "Yes. I think we've covered this already…"
Luke chuckled and glanced back down at her stomach in awe, "I just…I can't believe it. I mean…I know we've talked about it. And before I read the test we were discussing it but I don't know…knowing its real is just so amazing."
She watched him continue to stare at her belly and she smiled at him, "Luke?"
He shook his head and ignored her, "You don't know how long I have wanted this…how long I have thought about what it would be like to be with you. To be able to call you my wife…to call you the mother of my children. For years I never thought it would happen…I gave up on that dream."
"Oh Luke…" She whispered swallowing the lump her throat as she felt the tears begin to grow again.
"And then we started dating and I started to let myself dream about it again…and we got so close last time. So damn close…" He felt his words catch in his throat as he leaned forward to kiss her stomach. "But God I lost you…"
Lorelai inhaled sharply when she felt warm tears roll down onto her skin and into her bellybutton. "Shhh…Luke its okay."
He shook his head again and leaned his face against her stomach, "I cant lose you Lorelai. God you mean the world to me…"
"Oh Luke…" She whispered as she sat up and let his head rest in her lap near her belly, "Oh honey…shh…its okay. It's okay…"
Luke was not a man who cried often and he felt embarrassed at showing such emotion but at the moment he felt overwhelmed with happiness, sadness and regret for the time they had lost. "I'm so sorry…"
Lorelai quickly reached down and pulled his face up to look at her, "Hey…baby look at me." He closed his eyes and shook his head again, "No Luke I mean it…look at me."
He sighed and swallowed hard as he opened his eyes to stare at her, "What?"
"We both made mistakes last time. But none of that matters…you are the love of my life and we are getting married…and we're moving into that beautiful house you are building. And in about 8 or 9 months we're bringing home a baby to live there with us. This is it babe…you and me. You are never losing me again…I promise." She whispered.
He nodded slowly, "I was so scared when I felt you slipping away again last night…God I'd die if I lost you again Lorelai."
She felt her heart squeeze in her chest and she leaned forward to kiss away his tears, "I'm sorry…I'm sorry I scared you. But I promise I'm not going anywhere."
Luke smiled and nuzzled the side of her face, "I love you…"
She smiled as she pulled away to look him in the eye, "I love you too Luke…you and this little munchkin of ours." She said as she placed a protective hand over her belly.
Luke looked down at her hands and smiled, "How is it possible to love someone so much you haven't even met yet?"
"It's called being a parent…" Lorelai said as she watched him watch her. "And you are going to be the best father Luke…I'm so lucky to have you beside me."
He smiled and wiped away a tear, "We're you serious before?"
She cocked her head to the side and used her hand to wipe away some of his tears, "Serious about what?"
He placed his hand over hers, "About naming him William if it's a boy…"
The smile on her face grew and she nodded, "Yeah. I was…And if it's a girl we don't have to make her Lorelai…" Luke laughed, "We can came her Wilimena…"
Luke laughed harder and pushed her down on the bed, "My God you really are insane…"
"But I got you to smile didn't I?" She said reaching up to caress his face.
"Yeah…you did." He smiled again, "You always do…"
"Good…" She pulled him down to kiss her gently, "So…you think you can handle the jam hands after all?"
Luke smirked and nodded quickly, "As long as I'm doing it with you...yeah. I can handle it."
"Well good…" Lorelai said, "Because if this kid is anything like me its going to be eating a lot of jam…and chocolate and every other messy disgusting food you can think of and you're going to have to love it no matter what."
Luke groaned, "Oh God help me…"
"Its just all part of the process of picking Lorelai Gilmore to be your partner. You should have picked more wisely if you wanted a healthy eater for a kid." She said with a chuckle.
"Remind me again why I picked you then?" He asked with a sly smirk.
Lorelai gasped and pushed him back against his stomach so he was lying on his back on the mattress. She quickly straddled his hips and bent down to kiss him passionately, letting her tongue trace against his lips slowly and sensually. She let her hands slide up against the hard expanse of his muscular chest and she couldn't help but smirk when she felt his heart racing beneath her fingers.
She nipped playfully at his lips before pulling back and sitting up to stare down at him, "Do you remember now?"
Luke glanced up at her with a stunned expression, then he smiled and let his hands glide up along her thighs and hips. "Vaguely…but I think I might need some more reminders. Think you can help me out with that?"
Lorelai grinned down at him, "How much time do you have?"
Luke reached up and cupped her face, "For you? I have forever…"
Lorelai beamed down at him and fell forward to kiss him again, "Good answer…"
He smiled against her lips and carefully flipped her over again so she was underneath him. He pulled back and stared down into her blue eyes and shook his head in disbelief of just how damn lucky he actually was. She didn't ask him what he was thinking because she didn't have too…she felt just as lucky.
With a content sigh she reached for him again, "Come down here…"
Luke smiled and leaned down again to kiss her and reminded himself to stop thinking about the past. The pain of almost losing her was too much to handle and the more he dwelled on it the more he missed out on the present with her now. They both had a lot to be thankful for…and he had a feeling the next few months as crazy as they may be…would end up being the best months of his life. They were finally getting the family they had both always wanted…the whole package. Together.
So...what did you think? Are you happy they are having a baby? I hope so! Let me know and I will try and update as soon as possible! Thanks for the support!
