True Love And Coffee (A Gilmore Continuation)

1

After all this time telling everyone that I'm not back here I am. Sitting on my twin-sized bed, in my childhood bedroom looking down at the cover of What to Expect when Your Expecting. Given to me by my mom as a joke after she had calmed down, after I had finally gotten up the courage to tell her after her and Luke finally tied the knot.

It's only been about two weeks since I told her. Then shortly after mom and Luke took off on their honeymoon, Luke left Caesar in charge of the Diner for the time being, putting me in about week six of my pregnancy with mine and Logan's illegitimate love child.

I can remember that night as if it had just happened yesterday. Logan came to sweep me off my feet one last time with the help of Finn, Robert and Collin, who had bought not only the Tango Club we went to but also the Bed and Breakfast we spent our final night in together and where our child had been conceived. It was a beautiful final night before we said goodbye for what I thought would be the last time and I sent him home to his fiancée back in London.

I haven't told him yet. I haven't been able to form the words or summon the courage to call him and tell him that he's going to be a father. An it's been pretty easy to push to the side since I haven't started showing yet, and the house has been empty. But that's about to change with mom and Luke coming home tomorrow. I haven't told anyone yet actually, besides mom.

He deserves the right to know though. That's the main reason I went to see my dad a couple weeks back. To get my questions answered about how he felt about not being in my life growing up. I didn't mean to hurt him with my questions but I had to know his side of it. To gain a better understanding of how I would deal with my current situation. However, Logan's engaged whereas my dad wasn't back then, so it is different.

I took a sip of water and nibbled on a saltine cracker. They were all I could currently keep down. Everything else just came right back up so I had currently been working on the Stars Hallow Gazette from the comfort of my own home, not that Esther or Charlie even notice.

My first doctor appointment is coming up at my eight week mark. They say that this is where I'll hear the heartbeat for the first time and they'll be able to give me an estimated due date.

I still can't believe it. I'm pregnant...and I'm going to have a baby. Logan's baby.

My phone starts buzzing next to me and the readout says mom. I answer it as cheerfully as I can to cover the freak-out that is happening within.

"Hey mom." I say with a smile.

"Hey kid. How ya feeling?" She says through the receiver.

"Not to bad. Morning sickness. But I'm able to keep down saltines." I responded taking another sip of water. Mom had been checking in regularly since they left.

"Well that's something. Try eating apples. Worked for me, and it was the only time I ever really cared for them." She said.

"Okay. I'll try that."

"Hey, Who on the phone?" I could hear Luke say next to mom.

"It's Rory. She's not feeling to good." Mom told him. She had recently told him that I had gotten some type of bug and had been sick lately.

"OH. Hey Rory." He called into the phone. "Go to the Diner and get some soup." Always worrying that one.

"Tell him I will." I said smiling. "Hey mom. Thanks for checking in but I'm working on stuff for the paper right now so I'm gonna get going. I'll see you guys when you get home tomorrow."

"Okay. Well don't forget to rest and we will see you tomorrow." She said before hanging up.

It was nice not to get the third degree on needing to call and tell Logan for once. But I looked down at my phone and thought about it for a minute. I missed him and it would be wonderful to hear his voice again. I had picked up the phone probably a hundred times to call and tell him the news but I was never able to actually press the call button.

"Just do it. Don't think about it." I muttered to myself.

I pushed the laptop away from myself and picked up the phone. I scrolled down to Logan's name in my contact list and pressed dial. Then waited.

On the second ring I heard Logan's voice on the other end of the line.

"Rory? Everything okay?" He said. You could hear the confusion in his voice. After all we hadn't spoken in six weeks. Since we went our separate ways at the Bed and Breakfast that last morning.

"Um. I sorry to call you out of the blue like this." I said looking down at my feet. How am I going to do this. How am I going to tell him. I really should have put thought into this one.

"Is everything okay?" He asked again a little bit more concerned. "Because I haven't heard from you in six weeks. Since you sent me back here to Odette."

"I had to send you back to her. You're engaged to her." I snapped back at him a little.

"You made a decision to end things Rory. So why are you calling now?" He said. You could hear in his voice he was upset by this call. By me contacting him.

The silence hung in the air. Me on one end and him on the other waiting for an answer. Why did this have to be so hard. Another minute passed me just listening to him breathing on the other end, an entire ocean separating us.

"Ace..." Logan said and that was it I couldn't keep it in anymore.

"Logan. I'm Pregnant."
