Epilogue- Set About 8 Months After Chapter 5
Chandler sat on the end of the hospital bed, looking at his beautiful wife, Monica. He never thought that he could be this happy. And now they were truly a family.
"Well, Chandler, I guess that nurse was wrong. There was room for more than one." Monica stated smiling.
"Yep, she should have her license to practice medicine taken away." He joked.
At that moment, two nurses came in carrying two baby girls. They placed one in Chandler's arms and the other in Monica's.
"Well, this one is going to be Brook Celeste Bing, and what about the other?"
"Hmmm, how about Corrine Lane?"
"Yeah, I think they will like the names even though we didn't use any parts of their own."
"Well, too bad for them then. It's not like they carried the babies around for nine months."
"Exactly, but still, Joey may be mad that we didn't use Josephine and Rachel and Phoebe will be upset that we didn't use their names either."
"Well, we can make them godparents. Actually, it's perfect. Ross and Rachel can be Brook's godparents and Joey and Phoebe can be Corrine's." Monica was pleased with her problem solving. She was also elated because after nine months, she finally had her two little girls. After her pregnancy started out under strange conditions, everything was back to normal and she hadn't heard form Richard or Kathy since Chandler had told them that it wouldn't work out. And it was true, that first nurse was wrong, there was room for more than one. Monica had found out that she was having twins in her third month. She and Chandler immediately decided to start looking for a house someplace outside of the city. Two months ago they found a small, two-story house, and they had just moved in two weeks ago. Even though they were happy about owning a house, they missed their friends dearly. Things had certainly changed. Joey and Phoebe were going out and Ross and Rachel were engaged. Now it was like that gang of six friends were simply three couples. They still hung-out occasionally, but each couple was busy with their own lives. Still, all of them had found love, so everyone was happy.
Chandler stood up and walked over to Monica. He handed Brook to Monica and pulled up a chair. They sat and talked about their past and their future for a while. Then Chandler got up, kissed the three women in his life and went to gather their friends who were waiting tired in the hospital waiting room.
"Hey guys, you can come in now." And with that, the four of them got up and followed Chandler to Monica's room.
"Aww, Monica, they are so cute. They look just like you," Rachel said.
"What are their names? Hint Phoebe." Both Monica and Chandler laughed at this. Phoebe really wanted one of the girls to be named after her.
"Sorry Pheebs, we didn't name either of them after you guys. And no Joey, we didn't use Josephine either. We're sorry, but we didn't want you guys to fight if your names, or versions of you names, weren't used. But don't worry, Ross and Rachel are Brook's godparents and Phoebe and Joey are Corrine's." Chandler wanted them to know that they were still very involved.
"Well, which is which?" Joey asked earnestly.
Monica handed Chandler Corrine and said, "Chandler has Corrine Lane and I have Brook Celeste."
"Those are very cute names," Ross complimented his sister and her husband.
"I know!" Monica was extremely proud. She then stifled a yawn.
Noticing this, Chandler asked if the others would mind leaving while Monica rested. They agreed and left after saying goodbye to their nieces. Even if they weren't related by blood or marriage, they were all a big family. After they had gone, Chandler and Monica talked some more and took turns holding the girls.
"Chandler, this is my perfect family. Thank you."
"No, thank you. I couldn't be happier."
