The One When the Twins Turn Eighteen: Part One
Ring.
Ring.
Ring.
"Hello?"
"Hey Jacky, it's me."
"Oh, hey Ben! You're comin' tonight right?"
"Hell yeah!" Ben said, sounding offended. "Why wouldn't I?"
"I dunno. I thought you might be to busy or somethin'," Jack said nonchalantly, picking at his black fingernail polish.
"I wouldn't miss this for the world! You're going to be eighteen for Christ's sake! Pretty important Birthday, you know!" Ben said cheerfully. Jack smiled.
"Yeah, I guess you're right...When will you be--" there was a sudden knock on the front door causing him to jump. He slid from his position on the kitchen counter. "Here? I really miss--" He opened the door only to reveal his cousin "--you..." Jack grinned, hanging up the phone.
"Hey! Don't hang up on me!" Ben mock grumbled into his cell phone, resulting in a laugh from his younger cousin. He put the cell in his pocket before giving Jack a tight squeeze.
"You're growing up so goddamn fast, kid."
Jack pulled away from the embrace and ushered his older cousin inside the house, shutting the door behind him.
"I am not a kid, Ben." He said glaring up at his cousin. "You know that better than anyone else."
Ben ran a hand through his wild blonde hair, causing it to become stylishly ruffled.
"I guess you're not, huh?" He eyed Jake appreciatively. A couple years ago Jack had completely changed his look. Instead of his average looking clothes and his thin little glasses he once had, he now sported "skater" clothing, contacts, painted nails, and an eyebrow piercing that caused his parents to freak out when he came home with it, and ground him for a month.
His hair was a natural dark brown, which Ben assumed was from his birth father. His hair reached down around his pierced ears in loose waves. Jack's eyes were a bright blue which, if Ben remembered correctly, were from his birth mother.
"But you really have grown up, Jack," He said grinning.
"Yeah, I guess you're right..." Jack agreed, looking up at his cousin.
"Yes." And with that Ben pulled his cousin into another hug. "Happy Birthday, Jacky," he said. "Ooo! Want your present!"
"Chandler, we need to pick up the cake. I just called in before we left the house and they said it would be ready by four." Monica glanced at the digital clock in the porche.
"Alright...when will Erica be home?"
"Not until five-thirty." Monica replied, rolling her eyes.
"That's when dinner starts!" Chandler said, surprised.
"I know, but she's with Richard." Chandler growled deeply in the back of his throat.
"Every time!" Monica groaned. "Every time. He is her boyfriend, Chandler! He has no relation to Richard Burk and he is her age!"
"I know! But the damn irony!" Chandler muttered.
Monica sighed.
"I need gas."
"Wow." Richard breathed, lying worn out on the bed.
"Yeah," whispered Erica lying next to him.
"You're amazing Erica." Richard said, laughing quietly.
"Hmmm...So are you...I love you." She said softly.
"I love you too..." He wrapped his arms around his girlfriend.
"We have to get going soon..."
"I know..."
"I feel bad for Jack...he's home alone right now...It's our birthday and he is home alone..."
"He needs a girlfriend." Richard mumbled.
"I know...But he doesn't seem to want one."
"He's Emo."
"Richard! He is not!"
"Well he always seems depressed..."
"He is just shy."
"Hmmm...If you say so..." Richard said tiredly.
"Can you make some coffee? To wake us up for dinner?" Erica asked. Richard groaned sliding off the bed.
"Fine..."
"Mike!"
"Yes?"
"We have to get going; dinner is going to start soon..." Phoebe said grabbing her purse.
"Okay...Nicky!" A little brown haired boy ran into the living room naked.
"Nicky!" Phoebe laughed.
"Yes, Mommy?" The six-year-old asked sweetly.
"Mike, can you get him in his new sweater and pants?"
Mike smiled at his youngest. "Come on squirt." He said picking the child off the ground and carrying him into his bedroom."
Phoebe snorted and walked into the large living room. "Sophie, Mike, we have to get going. Her two eldest children groaned, annoyed.
"I'm tired." muttered Mike Jr.
"That's what happens when you don't go to sleep until three o'clock in the morning, Michael." Phoebe said putting her hands on her hips.
"I can't sleep at night!"
"That's your problem...Now hurry up, you two." With that she walked away.
"Rach!" Ross called.
"In the bedroom!"
He walked into their bedroom to find his wife smiling at him in her new black dress. She looked beautiful.
"Wow..." He said smiling at her with all his teeth showing.
"I'll take that as a complement," She said grabbing her purse and giving her husband a peck on the lips. She walked away, leaving him staring in awe behind her. She still had it, she thought giving her hips a flirty little shake before walking into her son's room.
"Hayden, we have to get going," she said, peeking into her sixteen-year-old's bedroom.
"Alright, Mom, I'll be right out." Rachel gave him a short nod and walked out.
"God," Rachel exclaimed, looking at Ross, "Can you believe the twins are going to be eighteen, already?"
"I know...It seems like only yesterday Monica and Chandler brought them home...It was quite a shock to us all, remember?" Ross said. It was such a long time ago, eighteen whole years. Everything had turned around after that day. Monica and Chandler had gotten the children they always dreamt of raising, he and Rachel had got back together for good...Phoebe and Mike started trying to get pregnant...
It was weird...looking back on those days...They were so much older, wiser. They had kids now. They had settled down and became adults. Parents. Everyone except for Joey. He had promised that he would settle down when he was sixty. But even after they had moved on, in different ways, on different paths, they were still the best of friends...and nothing could ever change that.
