Luke and Lorelai sat on the sofa and watched as Rory paced, Luke's gaze shifting from his wife to his step-daughter,
"Does someone wanna tell me whats going on?" Luke asked and Rory stopped pacing, looking at her step-father Rory gulped, she knew there was disappointment to come and knew that although he wasn't related to her by blood she had always valued his love and opinion of her and she knew it would never be the same again.
"I'm pregnant"
Luke looked from his wife to Rory and back again, a look of pure shock etched on his face,
"Wh... Whe... How?" Luke asked barely able to form the words,
"Well you see dear when a man and woman love each other very much" Lorelei began to explain mockingly,
"I know that, i just mean well... erm... do you know who the father is?"
Lorelei smacked him on the arm and Rory sunk into the chair behind her, her hands covering her face as she began to sob,
"Of course i know who the father is, what do you think i am, i may have committed some questionable acts in the past but i would never" Rory continued to sob but couldn't get the rest of the words out, Luke stood and pulled her up into a hug,
"I know you know who the father is, i'm asking who he is and whatever happens and whatever you decide to do, we will be here to support you"
Rory hugged him harder back but continued to cry,
"What do you mean what she decides to do?" Lorelei asked and Luke heard the warning signs in her tone, he turned to her and tried to speak but he couldn't form the words,he would never do that to a child or ask someone he loved to do that but that didn't mean that Rory was going to keep the baby. Rory sat back down and Luke joined Lorelei back on the sofa, still not looking at her,
"I'm keeping this baby, it isnt the poor child's fault i decided to open my legs without thinking of the consequences, i will raise it and i will inform Logan about it when it is born"
"Logan?" Luke questioned, "But its been like 9 months since you seen him hasn't it"
Lorelei stood up as Rory was about to answer, walking over to Rory she put her arm around her as she explained to Luke about everything that had happened the day before she had come home.
Rory and her parents sat and spoke about what they were going to do and made plans well into the night, eventually Luke put a stop to it and ordered everyone to bed. The next morning he would go to the bank and make sure his first grandchild had something when they were older.
The next morning Lorelei sat at the kitchen table, having had her coffee already this morning she waited for Rory to get up, looking at her daughter's bedroom door, she realised that nothing would ever be the same again, her precious little angel who had gone around town inviting people to a caterpillars funeral dressed up in fairy wings and who had once sat near a weeping willow telling it jokes to try and cheer it up. Lorelei continued to let her mind wander and was only brought out of her thoughts by her daughters bedroom door opening, Rory looked as if she had had about an hours sleep and remembering what it was like when she got pregnant, she knew that was quite possibly the case. Lorelei told Rory that she had made her an appointment for 9am and watched as Rory disappeared to have a shower, once again Lorelei was sucked into her thoughts.
Driving to the clinic, silence filled the car, which made the journey seem a whole lot longer than it already was, Stepping out of the car when they arrived Rory glanced up at the sterile building, noticing the people near the windows and feeling like they were silently judging her. Lorelei confirmed the appointment with the receptionist and sat next to her daughter in the waiting area, they hadn't been waiting long when a small woman approached them and gestured for them to follow her, once inside an examination room, she turned and introduced herself,
"Hi, I'm Dr Montoya, What are we here for today" she smiled
"I'm pregnant" Rory blurted out,
"Ok well first can i get your name?"
"Its Lorelei Leigh Gilmore"
"Ok let me just look you up on the system" the doctor turned to the computer and began typing,
"Mother, Lorelai Victoria Gilmore, Father, Christopher Hayden" The Gilmore Girls nodded,
"Ok so first i would like to confirm your pregnant, so im going to ask you to urinate into this little container and we will see what that tells us and then we will take bloods and do an ultrasound from there" She passed Rory the small container and Lorelei and the doctor waited patiently until she returned, when she did the doctor dipped four different things from her test kit into the urine, laid them on some paper towels whilst they worked and discarded the urine and waited, the doctor then explained that by all indication she was pregnant and after drawing blood she instructed Rory to lay down and started up the machine, running the wand with the gel on over her lower abdomen the doctor looked intently at the screen, after pressing a few buttons, she switched the machine off and handed Rory a wipe to clean herself up.
"well Miss Gilmore you are pregnant, we can't see much on the ultrasound yet but the HCG test came back positive, its always a precaution to take bloods, but i can say that i am pretty certain you are pregnant. I would like to book you in for another appointment in 4 weeks from now, and we will see how things are going" the doctor showed them out after giving Rory some general advice about morning sickness and general diet. Rory let herself be led to the car and sat down in the passenger seat, the doctor had confirmed it.
