Hey, guys. Thanks for the lovely reviews; they make my day. :) I was really worried that no-one was gonna read my story…so, now I'm really starting to like you!

And just to make sure: no, Rachel's not pregnant. You know, it's just before Mondler's wedding when she got pregnant, and this just after the engagement. Don't scare me like that. :D

Anyways, I still don't own Friends…damn it. I'm still wanting reviews, and criticism is welcome, but please try not to make me cry. :D

Now to the part you probably care about more…

Chapter Two

Monica's jaw flew open while she took support from the kitchen table in front of her.

"Oh, my…Oh, my God," Monica said after realizing something so obvious. She was pregnant. Of course she was. Why didn't she see it right away?

Rachel and Phoebe watched Monica's reaction, shocked. "So…you didn't know?" Phoebe said quietly, looking down. She didn't know if this was a good thing or not. It should be a good thing, the mother is supposed to know about her pregnancy before her water broke.

Monica breathed heavily, her eyes still very wide, seeming not to listen to Phoebe's words. "I'm not sure if she's that good at acting," Rachel said, helping Monica to sit on a chair. Phoebe sat next to her and took Monica's hands in hers, and Rachel stroked her back. Monica's jaw was still open in shock.

After a few quiet moments, Rachel decided to speak. "Isn't this what you want?" she asked quietly, looking at Monica's still-wide eyes. "You have always wanted to have a baby. Isn't this just wonderful?"

Monica finally looked at Rachel and closed her mouth. She didn't know what to say. It was true, she'd always wanted to have a baby. She even left Richard, her then-love-of-her-life because of that. But this was soon. Very soon. Maybe too soon. She had just gotten engaged and…

Oh, my God.

She'd just gotten engaged, with Chandler. He was going to freak out, completely.

"Oh, God…," Monica groaned quietly and buried her face in her hands. She almost felt like crying, but she was also kind of happy. Mostly, she was confused. She couldn't believe she was pregnant, though it was so obvious. But what on earth would Chandler say about this?

Rachel and Phoebe shared a little concerned look. "What? What are you thinking, Mon?" Rachel asked.

"Chandler," Monica replied with a sob. She wasn't crying, though.

Phoebe looked at Rachel, shaking her head. Chandler indeed. Mr. Commitment-phobic. Well, it had been a huge step for him to decide to marry Monica, but a baby was a…person.

"I know, I know," Phoebe said then and rubbed her forehead.

"No, maybe you don't know," Rachel said after a quiet moment. Monica and Phoebe turned to look at her. "I mean, the guy is getting married to you! He loves you! He's gonna love the baby! Think about it; what could possibly happen? Yes, he's probably gonna freak out at first, but after that? He knows that you want to have a baby, and he wants to make you happy, right? So, it would happen sooner or later, and in this case it's sooner."

Phoebe shrugged, but nodded slightly. "You may have a point," she said and took another sip from her juice.

Monica nodded, too. Rachel had a point: Chandler knew exactly what she wanted in the future. Now, it was just coming a little sooner. "Yeah, I think you're right," Monica said more calmly, nodding again.

"I think I am," Rachel said, glad she made Monica feel better. "When are you planning to tell him?"

"No, you can't tell him yet! You have to take a pregnancy test first. I mean, it's kind of mean to tell Chandler something like this if you're not even sure about it," Phoebe said and grabbed her jacket. "I'm gonna go and get you one right away."

"Get at least two so we can be one hundred percent sure," Rachel said. Phoebe nodded, and Monica gave her a slight, thankful smile as she left the apartment. She suddenly felt exhausted because of the past twenty minutes.

"Hey, I'm back!" Phoebe said after entering Chandler and Monica's apartment again. "I bought three." Rachel and Monica rose from the couch as Phoebe handed the tests to Monica.

"Thanks," Monica said quietly with a sigh.

This is it.

She knew it was very obvious she was pregnant, but after this she'd know for sure. She sighed again, grabbed the tests and went to the bathroom.

Phoebe and Rachel shared a nervous look. They didn't know what to say, it was so exciting.

"Oh, crap!" Rachel suddenly said and picked up the phone. "I have to call work and tell them that I'm not coming today. I can't believe how I can forget my job like that."

Rachel spoke on the phone, and Phoebe bit her nails on the couch. She watched Rachel walk around the apartment, apparently trying to sound like she had the flu. She finally hung up and sat on the couch next to Phoebe. It was quiet. There were no noises coming out of the bathroom. They sat there, waiting.

After a few more minutes, they looked at each other impatiently. Phoebe then stood up and walked to the bathroom door, Rachel in tow. She was just about to knock on the door as Monica opened it slowly. Tears were falling down her cheeks as she showed the three plusses.

"Oh, my God, Monica!" Phoebe screamed and hugged her friend anxiously.

"Congratulations!" Rachel said and hugged Monica just like before, tears forming in her eyes as well. "You better say those are happy tears because this is unbelievable!"

"I know! Of course they are," Monica said, trying to wipe her tears with her palm.

"When are you going to tell Chandler?" Phoebe asked.

"Um…I don't know," Monica said then and put the sticks away.

"This is so great! Suddenly, in nine months, you're gonna be a mommy, and Chandler's gonna be a daddy," Rachel said and shook her head in disbelief.

"Chandler Bing is going to be a father. I can't believe it," Phoebe said with a wide smile on her face. "Oh, what about the wedding? Before or after the birth?"

"I don't know. I think I just have a lot to think about!" Monica said and chuckled.

"Tell me about it!" Rachel said with a grin.

"But you have to promise, don't tell Joey, Ross or anybody—especially Chandler—about this!" Monica said, sounding more serious.

Phoebe and Rachel shook their heads. "Of course not. You tell when you're ready," Rachel said and hugged Monica again.

Monica was happy about the baby. She really was. And she was sure Chandler would be, too. There was just something that bothered Monica, and she knew her best friends or even Chandler couldn't help with that.

Well, that was emotional! And, gotta say, there were lots of "God''s in this chapter. :D

I hope you leave a review and stuff. :) I know this is supposed to be a Mondler story, though Chandler isn't even in this chapter (OMG) but he will be, believe me. More will happen in the next chapter…or I hope so. Does Monica tell Chandler? Will he find out himself? Or will he stay unaware forever? Maybe Monica's uterus has disappeared, or a raccoon comes in and kidnaps her? You never know.
