Hey! I'm back! Woo-hoo! So anyways here's the next part~
'Aren't you ready yet?" Monica asked walking into Chandler's apartment, "I told my parents we'd be there by 5."
"Yes, I'm ready," Chandler said coming out of his room. "Do your parents know I'm coming?"
"Well, kind of. They know my boyfriend's coming, they don't know that's you. Oh my god, what if they," Monica's worrying was cut off with a kiss from Chandler.
"It's gonna be fine," he said looking her in the eyes, "trust me."
They decided to rent a car to drive to her parents'. It was actually Monica's idea, she said that if they drove they could just leave whenever her mom started getting on her nerves.
"Have you told your parents yet?" Monica asked while they were driving.
"No, I need to call them. My mom will probably be happy to be a grandmother. And my dad," Chandler paused, "will probably also be happy to be a grandmother."
Monica rubbed his thigh reassuringly. "Doesn't sound worse than my parents. Would you rather have my mom?"
Chandler pulled into their driveway, "Any last requests?" he joked. Off Monica's look he added, "I'm kidding. Honey, it'll be fine."
"What if she can tell? I mean I'm starting to show and I don't want her to know before I tell her," Monica said worrying.
"It'll be fine, seriously," Chandler said opening Monica's car door. "C'mon," he held out his hand to her, which she took and they walked toward the house.
"Mom! Dad! We're here!" Monica yelled opening the door and walking in.
"There's my harmonica," Jack said walking in hugging her.
"Monica, dear," Judy hugged her, "have you gained a little weight? Where's that boyfriend you told us about?"
"Mom, Dad, you already know Chandler," Monica paused, "my boyfriend."
"Seriously Monica," her mother said.
"She is serious," Chandler walked over and put his arm around Monica.
"Oh my god," Judy said, "I wasn't quite expecting that."
As they sat down to dinner, Monica decided that it was as good of time as any to tell her parents that she was pregnant. "I actually have something else to tell you guys," she said after they were all eating.
"Is it about your job?" her mother asked.
"Uh, no," Monica said and took a deep breath. She looked at her parents and saw a questioning look on both of their faces.
"Are you OK?" her dad asked concerned.
Monica paused and felt Chandler squeeze her hand under the table. "I'm pregnant," she finally said.
"What?" Judy asked. "How long have you two been dating? I mean, assuming it's Chandler's."
Chandler couldn't help but glare at her, "Yes, it's mine."
"I mean, have you even thought about this? A baby's a drastic life change. Are you even ready for this? Do you have anything planned?" Judy kept talking.
"Would it kill you to be happy for me for once in your life?" Monica said getting up from the table and running upstairs.
Chandler looked around and sighed before going after her. "Mon?" he said walking into her old room. She was laying on the treadmill that was now in there. She had one hand on her stomach and had tears in her eyes. "Oh Mon, don't cry," Chandler walked over to her.
Monica sat up and Chandler sat down next to her. "I seriously don't think that she has ever been happy for me. She seems to think that she needs to make my life a living hell."
"Are you happy right now? I mean, other than with your mom, are you happy?" Chandler asked. Monica nodded. "Then screw her. If she can't be happy for you, hen just screw her."
Judy had gone upstairs after them, but Jack followed her and told her to leave them be. They stood outside of Monica's room. The door was open a crack, so the could see them, but they couldn't hear what they were saying.
Judy saw Monica smile. "I wonder what he's saying to her," Judy whispered. She watched as Chandler kissed Monica on the lips, then kissed her stomach. Then he wiped her tears away as he said something that mader her laugh.
"I don't know," Jack said, "but they're gonna be fine."
"Ready?" Chandler asked helping Monica up.
"Yeah," she said smiling at him.
They walked out of the room hand in hand. Judy and Jack were standing at the top of the stairs talking, waiting for them.
"Monica, I'm sorry," her mom apologized, "I was just kind of shocked. And I just wanted to say, congratulations," she said hugging her.
"Yeah, congratulations, sweetheart," her dad said hugging her.
"And I was wondering if you'd still like to stay for dessert. I'd understand if you don't, but we'd like you to," Judy said.
"Sure," monica said and put her arm around Chandler.
"I love you," he said kissong her on top of her head.
"I love you, too."
They all ate dessert talking and just making casual conversation. Chandler smiled at the fact that Monica's mother could actually be happy for her. 'It'll be fine,' he thought when he felt Monica squeeze his hand. 'just fine.'
"That actually went pretty good," Monica said on the drive home, "it could've been so much worse."
"Hey, that's what you said on our first date," Chandler said and Monica smiled at the fact that he had actually remembered that. "Your mom might've been right about something though. There is a lot we haven't thought of."
"Like what?"
"Well, I don't know. Where we're going to live for one," Chandler said thinking.
"My apartment?" Monica asked and Chandler nodded, "Rachel will move out if we ask her to."
"Are you going to work? Or like how soon would you go back to work after the baby's born?"
"I don't know, I haven't really thought about it. Would we need the money?"
"I don't know. How much money do you have in savings?"
"Don't look at me, I'm broke," Monica said.
"Well, I'm not sure exactly how much I have," Chandler paused, "but it's like $20,000 or something."
"Are you serious?" Monica asked. "How? I mean, you've pretty much been paying both your and Joey's share of the rent and you replaced all your furniture when it got stollen…"
"Well, guilt money from my parents. It kind of pays, literally, not to see them ever. And I'm way over paid for doing practically nothing, so, yeah."
"Ok, so we're ok if I atleast don't work for a little while."
"Yep, we'll be fine," Chandler said smiling at Monica.
"Stop saying that, you're making me nervous."
"Sorry, don't be nervous," Chandler said and then grinned and couldn't help but add, "It'll be fine."
