Monica smiled as she watched the kids play with their Christmas toys. Chandler came up and put an arm around her.
"What's wrong baby?" Chandler asked.
Monica sighed. "I miss Jack and Erica." She said. They went on a trip to California to see Joey. He went out there when he got offered a leading role in a movie. They were supposed to be back but there was a snow storm in New York so the plane had to go back to California.
Chandler kissed her head. "I know honey. They should be home soon though."
They spent the day playing with toys and outside riding their bikes. Zoe just learned how to ride a couple days ago with out training wheels.
Then they had Christmas dinner. Monica kept the blinds open in hopes that Jack and Erica would be back soon.
After dinner, Chandler was helping Monica clean up. Blake, Mia and Zoe were playing a board game that Zoe had gotten for Christmas together.
"Surprise." Jack and Erica said when they walked through the door. Everyone rushed into the living room and hugged them.
"I thought you were stuck in California." Monica said.
"Well the snow stopped so the plane was able to land." Jack said.
They watched a movie and drank hot chocolate together. It was just like they did when the kids were young.
The next morning, Chandler was in the garage putting oil in his and Monica's cars.
"Dad can I talk to you?" Erica asked.
Chandler smiled at her. He missed her asking that. "Always." He said.
Erica sat on a stool beside the car. "It's about Jason." She said referring to her boyfriend.
"Did he hurt you?" Chandler asked prepared to go have a talk with Jason.
"No dad it's nothing like that. He wants to move in with me." She said.
All Chandler wanted to do was say don't do it. But he knew it would be selfish. He didn't say it much but he actually thought Jason was a good guy. "Do you want to?" He asked.
Erica shrugged. "I don't know. I think so."
Chandler knelt down in front of her just like he had many times before. "Don't do it unless you're ready. If he loves you he'll understand."
"Thanks dad." She said and they hugged. "I love you."
He kissed her cheek. "I love you too."
She went in and he finished putting oil in. He thought about one of his favorite moments with Erica.
"Daddy you look handsome." 4 year old Erica said.
Chandler put her on his lap. "Do you think mommy will like it?" They were going on a date.
Erica nodded. "Oh yes. I never want to date."
Chandler smiled. He loved that answer. "Why not?"
"You're the only man in my life." She said.
Chandler felt tears fill up in his eyes. He knew he would never forget that moment.
That night, Jack and Blake cleaned up the kitchen after dinner.
"Mom do you have a minute?" Jack asked. They had just finished and Monica came in the kitchen to tell Blake to finish his report.
"Sure. What is it?" She asked and sat with him at the table.
"You know Jordan right?" He asked referring to his girlfriend of two years.
She was a sweet girl. "Yes." She said.
"I want to marry her." He said.
Monica didn't want her baby to get married. She knew she couldn't stop him though. "Is that what you really want?"
Jack nodded. "Yes mom. I love her."
Monica smiled and rubbed his hand. "Let me know how it goes."
Jack hugged her and she hugged him back. "Thanks."
Monica sighed when he walked away. She remembered when he was just a little boy.
"Mommy, this girl named Kate wanted to kiss me on the playground." Jack said in the car on the way home.
Monica laughed a little. "Was it gross?"
Jack made a face to show he was grossed out. "Yes, girls are icky. I'm never getting a girlfriend."
"Mon what's wrong?" Chandler asked interrupting Monica's thoughts.
"Jack isn't a baby anymore." She said sadly.
