Chapter 4 Two months later at their next doctor's visit*

"Good morning you two." Doctor Green said as they walked into the room.

"Good morning" they both replied as Rory went to sit in the chair.

"Shall we begin?" the doctor asked

"Sure, will we know what the sex is?" Rory asked her

"Yes, you will! OK so how many months pregnant are you?" she asked Rory

"She's 4 months." Jess answered immediately

"What are you doing about school?" the doctor asked her curiously

" I attended Chilton until I began to show, and now I'm being home schooled, and if everything works as planned, we are going to move to Boston so that I can attend Harvard." She explained

"OK, I have the sex of your baby right here. Would you two like to know?"

Jess and Rory exchanged glances. Then Rory turned back to the doctor and nodded.

"Your having a boy! Congratulations!"

"Oh my god. I'm gonna be a father." Jess said in disbelief

"Took you long enough to realize that one genius." Rory muttered

"No, I mean, I'm going to have a son. This is unbelievable." It looked like Jess was about to cry.

"OK Rory, I need to see you in two more months, and then once in your eight month." The doctor explained

"Thank you doctor"

Jess took Rory's hand still in somewhat of a shock, and led her out to the car, where he helped her in, and drove back to Stars Hollow.

"I can't believe we are getting married next week!" Rory exclaimed nervously

"I know. Its kinda weird isn't it? Jess asked

"No. Even if it weren't for the baby, I think I would be walking down the aisle with you eventually anyway." She blushed

"Oh? Did you always think you would marry me?" he asked smiling

"I knew I loved you." She answered

Jess just looked at her and smiled. In his mind he thought about how he had loved her from the moment he came to Stars Hollow and saw her reading, she was so beautiful.



When they arrived back in Stars Hollow, Jess dropped Rory at home, and went to work with Luke in the diner.

As Rory walked in, she saw her mother and her grandmother sitting at the table.

"SO? What is it?!?" Lorelai exclaimed

"I want Jess to be here when I tell you guys. So tonight at dinner."

"Meanie" Lorelai muttered

"Rory, we're here to discuss the wedding. We've already agreed that Lane and your mother are bridesmaids, your father will be giving you away, we have your dress and the bridesmaids dresses, their will be white flowers, and it will be held in the small church in Hartford. Everyone in Stars Hollow has been invited, I think that's it."

Stars Hollow had been shocked when they found out, but have been very supportive of Rory and Jess.

"It sounds good." Rory replied smiling.

"Tonight at dinner we will discuss what happens after the baby is born." Emily said.

"I WANNA KNOW IF IT'S A GIRL OR A BOY!" Lorelai shouted

"TONIGHT!" Rory shouted back laughing.

Dinner at Emily and Richard's*

As Rory, Jess, Lorelai, Luke, Richard, and Emily were seated around the table, they began to discuss plans for after the baby was born.

"Well, Luke and I thought, that after they are married, Jess will move in with us, so he'll be with Rory when the baby is born, and I can give them a hand with the baby until they go off in August. By the way, you have to tell us what your having!!!" Lorelai said

"OK, we're having a.boy!" Rory said happily.

"A little Matthew!! Yay!" Lorelai shouted

"Congratulations! Lorelai, I think your plan sounds wonderful." Emily said

"Yes, and wherever they decide to attend school, Emily and myself will help to support them." Richard finished.

"I'm going to be a father." Was Jess's contribution to the conversation

"He catches on quick." Luke muttered

Rory laughed and explained what happened earlier at the doctor's.

The rest of the evening went fairly smooth.

In the middle of dessert, Rory jumped up.

"Ouch!" she cried

"What's wrong?" Jess asked alarmed

"I don't know. This is weird."

Lorelai stood up and walked to the other side of the table. She placed her hand on Rory's stomach and giggled.

"He's kicking, Rory." She explained

"That's it? Oh that's a relief!" she laughed

Everyone else including Luke laughed along and went to feel Rory's stomach.

A few hours later, Rory yawned and leaned on Jess's shoulder.

"I think I'd better get her home, she's tired." He said to everyone

"OK, we're going to stay a little longer." Lorelai said

"You have your car, right?" Luke asked

"Yea, come on Rory." He helped her off the couch and walked her out to the car. He helped her in and they drove back into Stars Hollow.

When they walked into the house, it was already eleven. She changed into her pajamas and walked into her room. Jess was sitting on her bed reading. She climbed under the covers and snuggled up to Jess, who began reading to her. Within twenty minutes, she was sound asleep, so he kissed her, and fell asleep too, next to his soon-to-be wife and son.
