Hello folks! This is a continuation of "The Surprise"! Please read and review, as I really, really love getting reviews. You really need to have read "The Surprise" before reading this, otherwise it will make almost no sense.

**Disclaimer** None of these characters belong to me! They all belong to...erm, well I can't remember now, either Warner Brothers or NBC...But what the heck, they don't belong to me and that's the important thing...

**End of commercial break**

(Scene opens where it left off. Chandler is standing shell-shocked in front of Joey and Ross. Chandler flops down and puts his head in his hands).

Chandler: Oh my god. I love Monica. I love Monica. What am I going to do? WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?

(Long pause)

Joey: I don't know, man.

Chandler: (in the incredulous voice) That's not what you're supposed to say!

Ross: (in the earnest, concerned voice) So, dude. You're in love with my sister? What are you going to do?

Chandler: THAT'S WHAT I'M ASKING YOU!

(Cut to Phoebe in a grocery store buying another birthday cake.)

Phoebe: Chocolate? No, that makes her fat. Marzipan, no, I don't think she'd like that. Maybe I'm in the wrong section. What does she make for other people's birthdays? Last time it was flan. Maybe I should get flan.

(Monica is behind Phoebe in the other aisle buying coffee. She sees Phoebe and comes over)

Phoebe: MONICA MONICA (regains composure) Oh, Monica.

Monica: Hey Pheebs. Whatcha doin'?

Phoebe: Monica! I thought you were still at work!

Monica: They let me come home early cos it's my birthday. What are you doing here?

Phoebe: I'm, I'm (seeing a cake in the aisle shaped like a football) buying a football!

(grabs it and puts it in her shopping basket).

Monica: Pheebs you don't play football.

Phoebe: I know, but look at this one. It is really nice! And it even came in a box!

Monica: Pheebs, that's a cake.

Phoebe: No it isn't. (Looks at it again and pretends to realise something). Oh no.

(Cut back to apartment, Phoebe is inside)

Phoebe: Okay, I got this black forest gateau. I managed to grab it while Monica was paying for her coffee. I finally managed to lose her on the way back here. Phew!

Chandler: Hey that's pretty nice!

Rachel: Switch off the lights! I think I hear her coming!!

(Monica pushes open the door. The lights come on and all the friends jump out and scream "SURPRISE"!)

Monica: Wow guys! This is so great! I love it! You've decorated the apartment so nicely!

Rachel: Really? You're not mad at us for moving everything around?

Monica: Of course not! It's great!

Phoebe: Oh, open your presents, open your presents!

Monica: Oh yes! Can't wait for those presents!

(She sits down in the armchair and all the friends crowd around her)

Joey: Open mine first Mon!

Monica: Okay. It's soft! It's squashy! And it's (opens the present) sexy lingerie.

Joey: I know! Isn't that the best present ever?

Rachel: Joey!

Joey: What? Just wanted to please the lady.

Chandler: (Looks at Joey and Ross) Hey Mon. Why don't you open my present?

Monica: Okay! It feels like a box! And (reaches for the edges of the wrapping paper)

**Doorbell rings**

Monica: Oh, that must be Mom. Hang on a sec Chandler.

**Puts the present down and goes to the door. Chandler looks disappointed.**

Monica: Hey Mo - oh my god!
**The friends turn around to see who it is**

Monica: Oh my God, Richard!!

**Chandler looks shocked and upset**

Richard: Monica - I just needed to tell you something. I've been thinking about it for a while now and I figured your birthday would be the best time. I still love you Monica. I never stop thinking about you, and that is why, on your birthday Monica, I am asking you to be my wife.

Monica: (faintly) You'd better come in.
