REVIEW




LAST TIME
She led him and he sat on the bed. She took his suit jacket and hung it up while he fooled with the buttons.
"Do you think you could help me? It's because of my wrist."
"Well sure," Monica came over to him and stood between his legs.
She undid his shirt for him and took it off. Not knowing what to do next she looked at Chandler.
"It's because last time when you took my clothes off we had some fun," he said sensing the awkwardness.
Monica laughed," do you need help with your pants?"
"Do you think I'm going to refuse a beautiful woman who wants to remove my pants?"
Monica looked at him and smiled. She undid his pants. She gently slid them off his legs and looked back up at Chandler.

"Well this isn't as awkward as I thought," joked Monica.
Chandler laughed at her joke and smiled at her.
"Now don't take advantage of me because of my handicap."
"I wouldn't dream of doing a thing like that," Monica said smiling back at Chandler.
Monica and Chandler were very close together. He had moved his hands around to her back bringing her closer to him
"It wouldn't be the right thing to do," she said as she leaned down to kiss him.
"There you guys are," interrupted Joey as he tried to walk into the room.
Monica quickly backed away from Chandler.
"Man you smell of alcohol."
"Ya well you are practically naked," Joey said then looking at Monica standing over to the side. He noticed that she looked embarrassed.
"Ohhhh I get it. You two were having sex."
"Joey don't be silly, Chandler and I were not having sex."
"Oh ya right," he winks at Chandler.
Chandler laughs at this. Monica frowns at him
"Sorry," he mutters, "I was laughing at his stupidity?"
"Ha. Ha. Nice try Mr. Bing."
"Well I'll leave you two love birds alone."
And with that Joey left.
Chandler and Monica looked at each other and then both quickly turned away.
"So..." said Monica
"Ya," replied Chandler.
"Um..."
There was some more silence.
Chandler broke the silence this time, "I suddenly realized that I'm quite naked."
Monica laughed, "Let me get you some clothes."
She got him out a t-shirt and some pajama pants.
"I think maybe I should try to do it this time."
"I think maybe your right."
"Good night"
"Goodnight Chandler," Monica headed out the door towards her room. When she got there she noticed that Joey had crashed on top of her bed. She headed back down to sleep on the coach.
Meanwhile back in Chandler's room, Chandler had easily thrown on his shirt. His pants were a different story. He tried every which way but because of his leg he could not get them on.
Monica had just laid down when she heard a thump come from Chandler's bedroom. She raced to see what had happened. She opened the door to find Chandler lying on the floor with one pant leg.
He looked up at her, " I think I do need your help after all."
Monica smiled at him and then noticed the new cut on his face.
"You've hurt yourself."
"I did where?" Chandler felt his head until he felt a little blood on this hand, "Damn it. God today just isn't my day."
Monica helped him put on his pants then together they got him on the bed.
"I'll be right back to clean your cut up."
She returned with some supplies. She started to wipe away the blood with gauze and some rubbing alcohol.
"I'm sorry I made you come back down all the way here. I didn't think you would be able to hear me from your bedroom."
She threw away the wipe and started to wipe away some stray hairs.
"Oh I wasn't in my room. I was on the coach. Joey passed out on my bed."
"Oh."
Monica tried to hurry the drying process, by blowing on the cut.
Chandler swallowed hard and closed his eyes. "What are you doing that for?"
"To dry this so that I can put the band-aid on," she sat back and looked at Chandler, who had opened his eyes sensing she wasn't right there anymore.
"Is that okay? Does it hurt?"
"Oh no no...I was just wondering."
"Oh," Monica moved back to where she was sitting and applied the band-aid. She moved back slowly. His good hand caught her face before it had moved too far away from his face. He slowly moved his lips towards hers. He brushed his lips on hers feeling her lean in towards him. They really got into the kiss. He felt her tongue trace the top of his lip. He slightly opened his mouth.
After a few minutes they broke for the kiss, both looking at each other.
"Wow," was all Monica replied.
Chandler agreed with her by nodding.
He pulled her into a big hug. He then whispered into her ear, "you don't have to sleep on the coach. You can stay in here with me."
She backed away from him. "Chandler I'm not sure I'm ready..."
"Whoa...we will only sleep. I don't think I'm up to very much right now in my condition anyway," he said gesturing to his leg.
She smiled at him and they moved onto the bed together. Monica placed her head on his chest, along with her arm. Chandler stroked her head until they both fell asleep.

Monica woke up next to Chandler for the second day in a row but had not opened her eyes. For the first time in what seemed like ages she felt someone sleeping next to her. At first, if only by instinct, she thought it was Ted. Then last night came back to her. She smiled as she thought of what had happened last night. Then her mind came back to Ted. She started to feel guilty. Not as though she had cheated on him but that she was forgetting about him. She realized this was crazy, she could never forget the man she loved, the father of her children. Still laying here next to Chandler was not going to help.
She quietly slipped out of bed and made her way into the kitchen. It was not that early and decided to give Pheobe a ring. She wanted to know if they would all be coming over for breakfast.
"Hey, did I wake you?"
"No, I've not been sleeping the baby's been kicking or something."
"Oh well it's getting close."
"Oh it's past close that was two days ago."
"Really? So now he's late."
"Yes he is. So how is the birthday girl?"
"Well she's feeling old."
Pheobe laughed at her friend.
"Anyways I was calling to see if you guys were coming over for breakfast. I woke up early and decided to get a head start on it."
"Sure that would be great, but really you shouldn't be cooking on your birthday."
"Well who is then?"
"Good point. We'll be over once everyone is up."
"Okay see you then"

Monica started to make breakfast. A short while everyone was here. The noise had woken up Chandler. He hobbled out of the room to the kitchen table. Monica was still serving breakfast when he sat down. She gave him some pancakes and then ruffled his hair. He looked up and smiled at her.
"Where is Joey?"
"Oh he's passed out up in my bed."
"Well Monica you certainly are busy...first Chandler then Joey," joked Rachel.
"I didn't sleep upstairs with Joey."
"OHHHHHH."
"Where did you sleep?" asked Rachel, furthering the joke.
"Um with me," piped in Chandler.
This comment made Ross a little mad.
"You slept with my sister again???"
"Ross come down, it was nothing like that," reassured Monica.
"Ya, we only slept."
Ross sat in his seat pissed off and muttered, "ya. Fine. Sure."
"Oh! OH!" exclaimed Pheobe.
"What is it?" asked her husband Bob.
"My water broke."
"Oh my hardware floors," then off everyone else's glances, Monica continued faking enthusiasm, "yay they baby is coming."

Bob, Phoebe, Rachel and Chandler all piled into Bob's car. Ross insisted that Chandler and Monica take two separate cars, by making an excuse that Monica need help getting Joey up and Chandler being hurt was not up to the task.
