Part 11(Epilogue)

[Okay, I know that I said this last part plus an epilogue, but I changed it so that this is the epilogue. Why? Because I HAD NO IDEA of what to do in part 11 otherwise, didn't know how to write a vow renewal, and am loosing interest in this series. I am also short on time, and winter break is about to end....and I'll be even SHORTER on time. So hope you like it, anyway! Okay, well I am beginning this fic the day before Thanksgiving, [A/N...it's now January...didn't I tell you it was taking me too long because I was having a hard time with it? It took me until this year. LMAO...okay, shutting up....]and I'd just like to say how thankful I am for all the things I have, and all the people that I have in my life, especially my family, my fun friends, the coolest teacher ever, the second coolest teacher ever, the guy that I like (Even though I'm UGH at you right now ;) And even FRIENDS. Oh okay, enough. Here is the fic.]

Oh! (Everyone is probably saying Christina!!! Shut up and write!!!! But one more thing @@. The series dedication! (I dedicate each series to it's number 1 fan...)

Dedicated to: Rose (The IBMY lover, who was always writing me e-mails. Thanks!)

Monica, Sweetie, you're doing so good, Chandler told her, rubbing the small of her back and her shoulders.

The doctor smiled. I think someone needs to push...

Monica groaned. No, thanks.

C'mon, Mon. You can do this! We're gonna have a little baby SO soon.

Okay, fine, she reluctantly agreed.

The doctor ordered.

About five minutes later, a baby started crying. It's a boy! The doctor told them.

Oh my God, Monica said, tearing up. We have another little boy!!

I know. He's so perfect, Mon, Chandler said, tears in his eyes as well.

Tell me about it, she told Chandler with a smile.

*~*~

Annabel came crashing into Monica's hospital room.

Is it a boy or a girl?!? she asked, excitedly.

Hi to you, too, Annabel, Monica joked.

Hi, Monica. Chandler. Boy or girl, boy or girl?!?!?!

It's a boy, Monica told her, with a smile on her face.

Oh my God! Annabel said, covering her mouth with her hands and tearing up. Oh my God, it's a boy! Congratulations.

both Monica and Chandler replied.

Where's Joey? Monica asked. We want him to be here when we announce the name.

Annabel's eyes narrowed. You didn't name your little boy Joey, did you?

Monica laughed.

OR Joseph!

Monica laughed. You've been around Joey too long.

That happens when you're married to the guy, she joked. He's coming. I left him with Jake, Ashley, and Chris. Ran off as soon as I got in the hospital. And if they passed any vending machines, boy is he in trouble. Jake loves those vending machines! She laughed. Hey! Now we both have two boys and a girl! And both our girls are the middle child!

Monica said. With that, Joey entered with Jake, Ashley, Chris, Alyce, and Ross and Rachel's other daughter, Lucy.

Hey, Joe. Looks like you have more kids than when I left you, Annabel laughed.

Yeah, thanks for that. Running off.... He shook his head. I picked up some kids on the way.

Phoebe entered with Houston. Boy or girl, boy or girl?!? she asked.

Chandler told her.



It's a boy?!! Joey asked. Now we both have two boys and a girl. And both our girls are the middle children! Joey realized.

You and Annabel are around each other too much, Chandler laughed.

That happens when your married to the girl, Joey said. At that, Monica and Chandler laughed at him sounding like Annabel again.

Ross and Rachel entered, with Sam and Audrey.

Hi, Mommy! Hi Daddy! Audrey greeted them. Hi Aunt Annabel! Hi Uncle Joey! Hi Aunt Phoebe! Hi Houston! Hi Jake! Hi Ashley! Hi Chris! Hi Alyce! Hi Lucy! she said, greeting the whole room, even Lucy the baby. Hi Sam! Hi Aunt Rach! Hi Uncle Ross!

Sweetie, you are aware you just came in with Sam, Rachel and Ross, aren't you? Chandler asked.

Yeah. But it's been a while since I said hi, she told him.

Oh, I see, he responded.

Rachel took Lucy from Joey, and Ross picked up Alyce.

Thanks for bringing them over here, Joe, Rachel said Sam and Audrey wanted to go to the bathroom, and Ross had to take Sam and I had to take Auds, she turned to Monica. So, Boy?!! Girl?!!

Monica said.

A brother? Audrey asked.

A brother, Chandler told her. She ran up to Monica and Chandler and gave them a hug.

Jeez, Auds. This is nothing new to me, Sam joked.

Joey asked. I'm really losing chances here, now. People are finishing up having kids!!

What IS his name? Ross asked, Phoebe nodding excitedly.

Do tell, Monica, do tell, Phoebe said.

His name is Riley Joseph.

Everyone turned to look at Joey.

Great name, he said. I- I dunno what to say..... With that, he put his head in his hands and tried to get out of the room with out letting anyone know he was crying. The door closed behind him.

Nice touch, Mon, Chandler! Rachel said.

Yeah, the crybaby's crying. Great choice! Annabel said.

He's not a crybaby, is he?? Ross wanted to know.

You should see him sometimes. When Jake was born, especially when Ashley and Chris were born. He didn't pass out for their births, Annabel laughed.

Everyone laughed.

Well, Monica, Chandler, back together again, Monica's arisen from the non-dead, they have another baby, Joey crying, Ross and Rachel back together, two kids, my with my little guy, she gave Houston a hug. Joey married. This is how it's supposed to be.

*~*~*~*`


The Karate place was right across the street from a 7-Eleven, and after every lesson, Audrey and Sam somehow got over there to get a slurpee. Today however, Sam didn't go to Karate because he had a dentist appointment. Chandler took him to the dentist, Rachel had Riley,and Monica picked up Audrey.

Audrey wanted to go to get a slurpee, and Monica couldn't say no, being that she did it almost every time she got picked up from karate.

When they got up to the counter to pay, the cashier surprised her by saying

Monica looked up. Alan! Hi! Monica said, surprised to see him. What are you doing here?!

I work here. Now, he said. I mean, once I got back I didn't have a job so I had to start somewhere, and may as well be here.

Why in a 7 Eleven?

Alan shrugged. Flexible hours.

So how are things? Monica asked him. I haven't seen you since we got rescued!

I know! he said. I'm okay, I guess. You know those fears we talked about on the island?



Well, they happened to me. My wife is remarried and pregnant. Or my ex-wife, I should say. My son is now eleven. He was seven when I left. He was just in the lower part of second grade, now he's in junior high. And my other son? He was one when I left, and he sees his step father more of a father than me.

Well, do you still see them?

A few times. But it's not the same, you know? They just don't act right around me. Especially the five year old. How about you?

Monica looked at Audrey at the corner of her eye. She was looking at the magazine rack behind Monica, and Alan probably had no idea that she even belonged to her. This guy had a terrible time coming back, and everything had gone perfectly for her. She felt guilty telling him that.

Mommy, Mommy, can we buy this magazine? Audrey asked.

Monica looked at Alan who had a shocked look on his face, and then looked at Audrey. Sweetie, you can't read.

I know, but I like to look at the pictures, she said.

Okay, put it on the counter, Monica told her. She looked at Alan.

That.....is that...you know.....

My daughter? Monica asked. Yeah. Audrey.

The one who was two when you left?

The one who was two when I left.

So....things are going good for you then.

Pretty good.

And your son?

He's good, too.



Monica swallowed guiltily.

Alan remarked. You got really lucky, you know that?

I do know, Monica said. I'm sorry about your wife and....

It's okay, Alan told her. I'm just glad that someone's return was better than mine. Haven't talked to the others.

Me either.

So, your total is three forty-four.

Monica paid him, said goodbye, took Audrey's hand, and left.

Who was that man? Audrey asked. How come he knows you?

He's one of the people that was on that island with me, Monica told her.

How come he was so sad?

Because things didn't go so good for him when he got back.

Did they go good for you?

They went perfect.

THE END!!!!
(Thank Goodness!)

For Rose
