... Lorelai looked at Rory, Rory caught her gaze and smiled happily at her mother. Lorelai knew Rory was the best thing that ever happened to her...

Lorelai spent the next two weeks giving her mom the silent treatment. To Lorelai the silence seemed surprisingly right. As if the only way there would be any kind of peace between the two of them would be through distance. Lately she also had been giving Christopher some space. She hadn't felt very well, and her mom's voice kept popping into her head whenever she saw him. ' You're too young to be in love.' What if Emily had been right?

"Hey Lorelai. Wait up." Lorelai turned around to see Christopher flagging her down.

"Are you mad at me or something? You seem to be ignoring me lately. Is something wrong?" Christopher asked with concern.

"No, I had a huge fight with my mom, and I haven't been feeling well lately." Lorelai said to Christopher, but even then her mind was somewhere else.

"Oh, do you want to go to a movie tonight, or maybe out to dinner?"

"Not tonight, maybe tomorrow." Lorelai told him.

"Well, maybe...'Brrinngg.'" They both looked up from each other.

"I gotta go. Bye, Christopher." Lorelai ran off, leaving Christopher still staring at her.

Lorelai ran to her next class, and sat down in her seat. She kept thinking about what she had said. ' I haven't been feeling well lately. I haven't been feeling well lately.' Lorelai got the planner her mom had bought her, out of her bookbag, and opened it up. She started to count the days of the last month, ...32, 33, 34. When she got to 40, she knew something was very wrong. 'I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming.' She thought. ' How could this have...'

"-Ms. Gilmore, Ms. Gilmore. What is the answer to question 22?" Her history teacher asked.

"Huh? Uh, can I go to the bathroom?" Lorelai asked, but before her history teacher could answer her, Lorelai had already picked up her things and ran out of the room. She ran, and ran, she ran all the way out of the school building. She collapsed on a bench, a couple of blocks away from the school, and started to cry.

It was dark by the time that Lorelai Gilmore arrived at her house. She knew she was expected to be at home at least two hours ago, but right now being late was the least of her worries. She opened the door, walked in, and proceeded to go up the stairs to her bedroom.

"Lorelai Gilmore! Where the hell have you been? First you skip school, then you show up here two hours late. Were you with Christopher, again?" Emily yelled after her, making Lorelai stop in the middle of the staircase.

"No mom, I was definitely not with Christopher. I just needed to think and do some things."

"What were these things that were so important that you had to skip school and show up two hours late?"

"Things mom. Just some things. I'm here now, so lets just drop it. Now I'm going to my room now to get ready for dinner. I'll be down in a few minutes." Lorelai picked up her bookbag and started to head up the stairs again, when Emily stopped her.

"Wait, Lorelai come into the den for a minute I need to show you something." Emily motioned to the den. She truly did not want to fight with her daughter, today.

Lorelai sighed, "Mom, can't it wait?"

"No, come here now. I think you might actually like it." Emily said with some happiness showing on her face.

"Okay." Emily grabbed Lorelai's arm, and dragged her into the den. Lorelai's mouth dropped in awe, as she saw Emily's surprise in the den. There was the most beautiful off- white dress in the world. Emily saw the look on Lorelai's face and smiled.

"I thought you might like it. It's your 'coming- out' dress, go try it on." Emily was so happy to actually please her daughter once.

Everything else on Lorelai's mind just slipped away when she saw the dress. She grabbed the dress and ran into the next room. Within seconds, Lorelai ran back, looking as gorgeous as ever in her white gown.

"Richard, Richard. Hurry come here, come see Lorelai." Emily yelled out. Richard showed up a few seconds later with a copy of The New York Times in his hand.

"Wow, Lorelai. You look wonderful." Lorelai smiled, even her dad was happy.

"Well, you better take that off. You don't want to get it dirty." Lorelai went back into the other room and changed. "Oh, Lorelai, dinner should be in 15 minutes."

Lorelai went to her bedroom, and sat on her bed. She opened up her bookbag, and her resent smile faded. She pulled out a small paper bag from the bookbag, and sighed. Inside the bag, was a home pregnancy test that she'd bought earlier that day. She took the box, and ran into her bathroom, locking the door. Within five minutes, Lorelai came out of her bathroom with an indescribable look on her face.

"This is the worst thing that has ever happened to me, I'm pregnant."
