This fic takes place after the finale. I don't own any of these people.
"So sorry I'm late." Chandler said as he sat next to Monica on the bleachers. He looked at Monica who was watching the basketball game, and could tell she was really mad. He looked to the other side of her hoping to see his little princess so Monica wouldn'tyell at him,since she neverreally yelled atChandler in front of the kids."Where's Erica?"
Monica rolled her eyes. "Well I figured that you would forget to pick her up from dance so Rachel picked her up."
"Oh my god! I'm so sorry! I .. I was so busy at work.. I just.. oh my god. Monica.." Chandler watched as Jack threw the basketball into the hoop. He never knew Jack was so good at basketball. "Wow he's really good."
"Yes he is." Monica smiled proudly as she watched Jack.
Chandler continued to watch Jack play and clapped and hooted along with everyone else when their team scored a point. He really couldn't believe how good his 5 year old son was at basketball. He had been missing out a lot on the twins lives.
"DADDY!" Jack screamed as soon as the game was over and he spotted Chandler sitting next to Monica. He ran towards Chandler and hugged him. "Daddy what are you doing here?"
"I came to see you kiddo!" Chandler laughed and kissed the top of Jack's sweaty head. "You did a good job!"
"Thanks." Jack smiled and hugged Chandler again.
"You did a great job honey!" Monica smiled and kissed Jack. "Why don't we go talk to your coach and find out when practice is, and then you can catch up with your dad later." She took Jack's hand and led him towards his coach. "Hey Steve."
"Hey Monica." He said flashing her a huge smile.
Chandler looked at Jack's coach. He was a good looking coach giving Monica, a very good looking mother, some sort of look. He didn't like the look. He didn't like the look Monica was giving him either. He had to do something to break the look up."Hi I'm Chandler! Jack's father." Chandler smiled and stretched his arm out.
"Oh.. hi I'm Steve." The tall man shook Chandler's hand without the smile he was giving Monica. After a couple of awkward seconds Steve bent down to Jack's height and gave him a high five."Good game Jack!"
Chandler turned his head towards Monica and raised his eyebrows.
Monica rolled her eyes.
"So practice is tomorrow at 2 and the next game is Friday night." Steve nodded as he stood up and gave Monica a tiny smile and then looking at Chandler. "See you at the game?"
"Yea." Chandler smiled. "You'll see me at the game."
"Great." He smiled. "It was nice meeting you, and I'll see you two tomorrow."
"Why would Monica see you tomorrow?" Chandler asked a little surprised.
"Well.. I'm assuming Monica's going to drop off, and pick up Jack from practice like she always does."
"Oh.. right." He laughed nervously feeling a little stupid. "Yea well we are going to go, since we have a daughter to pick up. "
"No I have a daughter to pick up. You have to go home." Monica smiled. "Bye Steve."
"Bye."
"Mommy is daddy going to eat dinner at our house?" Jack looked up at his mother who was walking really fast.
"No sweetie. Your dad just came to see you."
"Please mommy! Erica wants to see daddy too!"
Chandler picked Jack up and kissed his cheek. "Don't worry about it kid. I'll see you on Friday." He smiled as he stood in front of Monica's white Lexus.
"Mommy please! It's not faired that I get to see daddy and not Erica." Jack begged as he held onto Chandler's neck. "We never see daddy."
Monica sighed and looked from Chandler's face to Jack's. "Are you doing anything tonight Chandler?"
A small smile appeared on his face. "No I'm not."
"Want to have dinner with us?"
"I'd love to."
"Great." Monica nodded and forced a smile. "Well how about you and Jack go pick Erica up from Rachel and Ross' and I'll go home and get dinner ready."
"Sounds great."
"Ok." Monica kissed Jack on the forehead. "I'll see you at home honey."
"Bye mommy." He waved as Chandler carried him to his black Ford Explorer.
"Mommy we're home!" Erica screamed as she dropped her tiny pink duffel bag onto the floor.
"Hi honey. How was dance?" Monica smiled and walked over to Erica's bag and picked it up.
"It was so much fun mommy!" Erica smiled.
"Where's Jack and your dad?"
"Outside."
Monica picked Erica up and walked to the door and saw Chandler taking out 2 big bags, with 'Toys R Us' printed all over the bags, out of his car. "Oh my god! Chandler! I told you last time that you are not allowed to buy them toys without my consent!"
"I can't help it." He smiled walking to the door. "I love them."
"We love you too daddy." Erica said with a big smile.
Monica put Erica down. "Why don't you guys go upstairs and wash up for dinner and your dad will come help me set the table." Monica smiled.
"Ok mommy." Erica gave Chandler a big hug and ran up the stairs.
"Is daddy going to sleep here too?"
"Don't push it Jack." Monica smiled. "Go wash your hands."
"Is that a yes or no?"
"No."
Jack ran up the stairs. "ERICA! Mommy said no!" He screamed.
Monica shook her head and laughed. She turned and looked at Chandler. "I told you no more toys Chandler. They have way too many."
"Come on it's just a few more. I mean they need a variety of toys."
"Chandler every time you see them, you bring them huge bags of toys. You can't spoil them."
"Why not? Their my kids and I love them. I mean I don't get to see them everyday."
"That's your fault. I give you the opportunity to see them and you don't take it. So stop buying them so many toys. Maybe one or two.. but not the whole store."
"Monica I'm very busy. Of course I'd love to see my kids more. It's not like I sit in the office and don't do anything, I actually work."
"I know.. but you could make time for them once in a while."
"All my spare time is devoted to those 2 kids." Chandler sighed. "Fine. No more toys." He shook his head and followed her into the kitchen. "So what's with you and Jack's coach?"
"What do you mean?"
"Are you guys seeing each other?"
Monica laughed. "No. Why would you think that?"
"I don't know.. seems like you two had something going on."
"No, Chandler I'm not seeing Jack's coach. Not that it's any of your business."
"Ok fine." Chandler smiled and sat down. "Looks good."
"Thanks." Monica smiled.
"So is he married?"
"What?"
"Just making sure that your not having an affair with someone who's married."
Monica glared at Chandler.
"I'm just kidding Monica. Come on. Laugh."
"Your joke was so funny Chandler."
"Mommy can we have ice cream after dinner?" Erica asked running in and sitting next to Chandler.
"Yes." Chandler smiled and kissed Erica on the head.
"Yay!" Erica smiled and put her arms up in the air.
"Sweetie you had ice cream last night."
"Aww mommy please!" Erica pouted.
"Erica."
"But daddy said yes!" Jack whined.
"I'll think about it." Monica smiled and set a plate down in front of Jack and Erica.
"Aren't you going to eat?" Chandler asked as he bit his chicken.
"I ate before you guys came home." Monica said sipping her bottle of water.
"You did?"
"Yes.. So Erica did you learn anything new in dance today?"
"No. We just danced mommy."
"Why'd you eat before we came home?"
Monica looked at her water for a while and then back up at Chandler. "Because you guys weren't here for like 2 hours and well.. I got pretty hungry and just ate. Sorry."
"Oh. Sorry I didn't know you were hungry. I would've skipped the toys."
"It's ok." Monica smiled. She sat silently and watched her kids eat and talk about their lives since they last saw Chandler. They adored him. They loved him so much and always tried to spend as much time as they could with him, since they didn't get to see him too much. Chandler was always busy with work, and no matter how hard Monica tried to get Chandler to see his kids more, he was just too busy.Even though she wasn't too crazy about seeing Chandler, she did it for the kids.She would always have to come up with excuses for him when he couldn't make it to one of Jack's games, or Erica's recitals. She always tried to make Chandler seem like the good guy. Sometimes Monica felt like the twins loved Chandler much more then they loved her. Which made her a little sad sometimes.
"Mommy."
Monica looked up. "Yes sweetheart?" Monica smiled.
"I'm full."
"Me too mommy." Jack said putting down his fork.
"Ok. Umm.. Well, I'll clean up and you guys can go watch some TV."
"Ok." Jack said running into the living room.
"NO JACK!" Erica screamed. "Don't sit on Charlie!" Erica grabbed her bear from underneath Jack and started hitting him with it.
"STOP ERICA!"
"NO! You sitted on him!"
"MOMMY!" Jack screamed.
Monica set the plates into the sink and turned around.
"I'll take care of it." Chandler smiled and got up.
"Thank you." Monica started rinsing off the plates and could hear Chandler settling the twins down. A couple minutes later she saw Chandler's body standing next to her. "Thanks for taking care of that."
"No problem." He smiled. "Can I help?" He looked at the plates. "Oh your going to get your sleeve wet." He pulled up Monica's long sleeves and stared at her wrists. They were tiny. He'd never seen them so small. He hadn't really seen her wrists in a while, well he never really paid attention to them, so they were probably always that small. He shook it off and took the plate she was holding. "I'll finish up. You can go relax with the kids."
"Ok, thank you." She smiled andwalked out ofthe kitchen. Sometimes Chandler drove her completely crazy. But then other times he was just incredibly sweet. She sat on the couch in between the twins.A couple minutes later Chandler came into the living room and sat next to Erica. "Hey do you guys want ice cream?" Monica asked and watched the twins blue eyes light up.
"Really mommy?" Erica said with a huge smile.
"Yea. Go get your coats." She smiled and watched the twins run to the closet and grab their coats. "Have fun you guys."
"You're not coming?" Chandler asked as he helped Jack zip up his jacket.
"No."
"You want me to bring something back?"
"No I'm good." Monica smiled. "Have fun."
Chandler smiled at her and then down at the kids."Ok who wants ice cream?"
"Alright you guys go brush your teeth and get ready for bed and I'm gonna go look for your mom." Chandler said as he plopped his keys onto the kitchen table.
"Are you going to tuck us in?" Erica asked as she took off her coat and put it on the chair.
"I think so." He smiled and planted a kiss on her nose. "Go brush." He walked into the living room and all the other rooms downstairs. "Mon?" He ran up the stairs and gave a slight knock on her door before entering. "Mon.. We.." He drifted off as he saw the shocking image in front of him. "I.. I'm sorry.." He said quickly exiting the room not sure what to do next.
