Just a warning this is a lot of Monica and Rachel.
Disclamier: I don't own Friends
Once Monica had cleared away the tears so she was at least able to see clearly she found herself just wandering the city, unable to face her friends after what just happened. She was positive Ross would never talk to her again, after Chandler tells her brother everything and files for divorce she'll lose her brother and everyone will just slowly leave her hanging with her baby. Sure, Chandler would say that he'll help out in the beginning but it'll be too hard for them to be in the same room with each other. The thoughts of everyone leaving her alone with a baby and no husband made her start sobbing again. She will always be kicking herself in the ass for making a stupid mistake and tearing her family apart. She gave her watch a glance seeing it was almost midnight everyone would most likely had gone to their respective apartments or at least fled her apartment.
She knew she had to go home, a person that was as petite as her and at this moment as vulnerable would be bait to any disturbed man looking for a good fuck. She ran/walked home feeling a sigh of relief when she got home and saw there was no one in her apartment, or so she thought. Once she had changed into her pajamas and started her nightly routine she saw Rachel move from the bathroom to her kitchen table awaiting her arrival. Her heart sank seeing her, she Monica was grateful to have a friend that would wait up until all hours of the night to make sure she arrived home safe but at this point she didn't even wanna see any of her friends even Rachel.
Monica quickly darted to the bathroom trying to stay unseen by Rachel but her speed and determination getting to her and she slammed the door a little louder then she expected it to be. Rachel jumped up startled going to the bathroom knocking on the door. "Monica I know you're in there, Please come out I'm really worried about you." Monica sighed slumping against the door. She'd been caught she would have to face the music. Rachel was known to pull everything out of her like a conversational wizard, it was impossible to hide anything from her, she knew her way to well to know the difference between a lie and the truth. "I don't wanna talk right now, Rach!" She yelled through the door the shrillness of her own voice scaring herself. Rachel took a deep breath before prying the door open her face falling when she saw the multiple tear tracks that stained Monica's face she knew she was upset about Chandler but she knew something else was up. She sat in front of Monica and pulled her into her arms allowing her to fall apart and much to Monica's shock she started sobbing she didn't think she had anymore tears left in her tear ducts.
"Oh honey, this cant be all because of Chandler leaving talk to me…" She cooed to her sobbing friend as she rubbed her friends shaking back trying to get her to feel comforted enough so she could stop crying and tell her what was really up. Monica shook her head just falling apart in her best friends chest. "I-I c-c-can't. You-you'll ha-hate me!" She exclaimed shakily unable to meet her friends eyes. Every inch of Rachel's face looked at her concerned. "Monica you know no matter what it is I'll always be by your side and help you through it." By this time Monica's sobs have subsided and she was finally able to talk somewhat clearly. She inhaled a sharp breath before meeting her friends concerned filled eyes. Her heart swelled at how concerned she was but that quickly broke but the though of her reaction. "Well its a total of three things. One is somewhat happy but the rest are just so horrible that it doesn't even matter." Rachel's hand flew to her mouth. "Monica you're not dying are you?" Monica quickly and reassuringly shook her head. "No, not in the physical sense but emotionally I'm gone." She couldn't hold it in any longer she had to tall her friend.
"I'm pregnant." She whispered. Rachel's face brightened up immediately knowing how long Monica haas wanted to be a mom. "Oh, Thats great! But why the tears you should be happy!" She exclaimed hugging her best friend. Monica hugged her tightly before pulling away. "Chandler wants a divorce because I cheated on him." Her voice cracked at the end of the sentence as she felt tears fall from her eyes. "With Richard." She whispered her head dropping into her hands as she started crying again. Even when she said it she couldn't believe she actually did it. It was so unlike her. She loved Chandler. Rachel sat there in just pure shock from what she heard. She had nothing to say, of course she felt horrible for Chandler and a little for Monica even though this was all her fault but tracheal knows what its like to be basically a single mother she knew Monica could handle it she was the strongest person she ever knew but still she couldn't believe she would actually betray Chandler like that.
"Please say something Rachel." She sobbed taking a specific interest in her pajama pants unable to even look at her friend. "Monica, like I said before i'll always be there for you and this situation isn't any different I just want you to know how stupid you are for doing this but you've been though enough tonight lets get you to bed." Monica nodded silently getting up to go to bed stopping in the door way of her bedroom door. "Can you stay with me tonight, I don't wanna be alone right now." She whispered rachel could even hear the meekness in her voice."Of course I can sweetheart just let me borrow some stuff." Monica nodded walking into her bedroom climbing under the covers. Her pillow smelled like Chandler, the tears pooled in her eyes as they silently fell Rachel got into bed with her giving her best friend a tight squeeze before drifting to sleep. Monica silently cried for what seemed like hours before actually falling into a dreamless sleep.
