TOW Monica and Chandler's Babies

Ok, here's the 2nd part to TOW Monica and Chandler's Babies. Please read and review! Thanks.

Disclaimer: Same as the first part…and all the chapters, actually.

          After Chandler got his coffee, he went into the waiting room to find the gang. Instead, he saw his mother there, reading a magazine.

"Mom?" he questioned, surprised, "I thought you were in California."

"I was. But then, when I checked my messages, and heard that Monica was in labor, so I flew right over."

"Don't you have like, really important things to do there?"

"Well yeah. But you didn't think I was going to miss one of the most important day of my child's life, did you?"

He smiled as she hugged him and kissed his head, "I hate that I've missed so much in your life."

"I'm just glad you're here."

"Me too."

After a moment of silence, Chandler began nervously, "Mom, I'm so terrified."

"About Monica giving birth? Because it is so unlikely that anything will go wrong…"

"No, I know that. I mean I'm nervous about that, too, but I'm more nervous about being a father."

"Why? You're gonna be fine."

"What if I'm not? I mean what if I turn up like dad? I leave my wife and kids and…well not be gay, but do something else. I don't want to, but he did…"

Nora interrupted him, "You won't. You know why?"

Chandler shook is head.

"Because you're not your dad. In fact, you two are exact opposites from one another."

"But he's my dad,"

"So? That doesn't mean you'll do what he does. You're not cheating on your wife with anybody, especially not with the houseboy, are you?"

"Well no."

"And why not?"

"Because I love her."

"There's the difference."

"What?"

"We weren't in love, sweetie. We never were. It's a totally different situation. It's not that your dad left because you were born. He left because the two of us couldn't stand each other."

"Really?"

"Yes. He came back to see you when you were younger, didn't he?"

"Well, yeah."

"Swim meets, birthdays, graduations, everything."

"Yeah."

"It won't happen with you though, because the two of you are in love. I wish that I had even half of what you have with someone. But I never did. So, the fact that my son has it…it just makes me so happy."

Chandler smiled, "It's never too late for love."

"Now you sound like the romance novelist."

"I only learned from the best," he complimented as he kissed her cheek.

Then, Joey came out with a sandwich in hand, "Monica's looking for you. Her exact words were, 'Joey, find Chandler and don't come back in my room with that repulsive sandwich'."

Chandler and Nora chucked.

"Ok, I'm coming."

"I'll come with you. I want to wish Monica luck."

"Don't come too close to her though," Chandler warned as he held up his arm, "She scratches."

Nora laughed, "Most woman only squeeze."

"Yeah, well, Monica's one of a kind."

          After another hour or so, Phoebe, Chandler, and Rachel were in Monica's room.

"You know what I just realized."

"Do we want to know?" Rachel asked.

"Of course!"

"What?"

"Soon, all the women in here will have given birth…and each to a different amount of babies."

Chandler looked at her strangely, "Ok. I got none of that."

"No look!" she said pointing to Rachel, "She had one kid," then she pointed to Monica, "she had two," and then to herself, "And I had three."

"I think that the only answer for that would be…o…k…"

          Finally, after about seven hours, the doctors told Monica it was time to push.

"Ok, everybody clear out, aside from the father," the nurse warned the four other friends and the three soon-to-be grandparents.

"Aww, can't we stay?" Phoebe asked, "I can sing!"

"NO!" Chandler and Monica answered at the same time.

"Fine. I can tell when I'm not wanted."

With that, the seven others wished Monica and Chandler luck and left the room.

"Ok," the doctor told Monica, "It's time to start pushing."

Chandler kissed Monica's forehead, "Come on babe, it's time to have our babies."

Monica sat up slightly and began to push.

"Ok, you're almost there," the doctor assured her.

She dug her nails deeper into Chandler's skin and pushed some more.

"I can't do this," Monica cried, "It's too hard."

"Come on, of course you can! You're Monica…the strongest woman out there. I mean, if Rachel can do it…"

"I can do it!" she assured him, her competitive side kicking in.

Chandler smiled broadly, expecting her to react that way.

"Ok, the baby's head is out, so one more push!"

Suddenly, there was a blood-covered baby in the doctor's arms.

"Congratulations…you're first born is a girl."

Both Monica and Chandler were close to tears.

"Would the father like to cut the umbilical cord?"

Chandler did so and sniffed, "Eww…this is so gross."

After about two minutes, the doctor warned her, "Ok, looks like this second baby's not wasting anytime."

"I have to push again?" Monica questioned exhaustedly.

"Come on, you can do it!" Chandler assured her as she began to push again.

After some more time, the second child was out.

"It's a girl," the doctor informed them.

Again, Chandler cut the umbilical cord and they cleaned off the second baby. He then went over and kissed Monica on the lips.

          The nurse brought over the babies and handed the first born to Monica, while she handed the second to Chandler. The two held the crying babies in silence. Both had tears streaming down their faces and were watching the babies in awe. Finally, Monica was the one to break the silence.

"I can't believe they're here."

"Me neither," Chandler looked up, "I'm totally amazed by you. You were just…amazing."

"I know."

"Our two baby girls need names," Chandler informed her, "Unless you want to call them baby girl number one and baby girl number two."

Monica chucked, "I know. Do you have anything in mind."

"Nope. I'm leaving it completely up to you. Whatever names you choose."

"Really?" Monica asked ecstatically, "Why?"

"Oh come on. You deserve this. You've done all the work. Plus you'll probably hate my ideas, so I didn't think up any."

Monica smiled, "Okay!"

"Okay!" Chandler agreed.

"Melissa and Carly."

"That was fast."

"I've thought about it a lot."

"Why am I not surprised?"

She ignored his joke, "Do you realize why I chose those names?"

"No, why?"

"The "M" name is for Monica and the "C" name is for Chandler."

Chandler smiled broadly, "That's so clever! You're a genius."

"I know. Ok, so who gets which name?"

"I say each of us gets the one we're holding."

"Good call. I'm not the only clever one here."

"Thank you," he said and kissed her deeply.

"What was that for?" she asked, catching her breath.

"For two beautiful children."

Monica began to cry, "You're so sweet. Thank you, too, for two beautiful children."

Chandler was crying, too, "Ok, enough thank you's."

"Ok. And stop crying. You're not the one with the out of control hormones."

"It's just so amazing."

"I know. Okay, you're off the hook for now."

"I love you so much!" Chandler told Monica as he looked at their two children. And I love them, too."

          Chandler came into the waiting room, tired, but happy.

"Are they here?" Judy questioned.

A small smiled formed on his lips. "They're here."

"So, can we see them?"

Chandler nodded and they all followed him into Monica's room. Monica was holding both babies when they arrived, but Chandler picked up Melissa.

Chandler urged Monica and she began, "We want you to meet Melissa Judy Bing," she said as Chandler brought her forward to Judy and Jack, "And Carly Nora Bing," Monica continued as Nora picked up Carly.

Everybody in the room was crying at that point, as the babies were passed on from grandparents to the rest of the friends.

"You are so cute," Phoebe cooed as she rocked Carly back and forth, "You look nothing like your father. With the dark curls and all. That's a good thing."

"Hey!" Chandler defended.

"I'm just joking." But then she whispered, "No I'm not," to Carly.

"Maybe someone else should hold her for a while," Rachel decided as Ross took Emma, so she could hold Carly.

Meanwhile, Joey was holding Melissa and standing next to Chandler. He was crying hysterically, "I can't believe she's yours!" Joey told him, "She's just so cute!"

"Ok, let's not insult the father here."

"These two are going to have their daddy wrapped around their pinky fingers," Nora commented as she took Melissa from Joey, "They both have his eyes."

"How come you didn't name either of them Joey?" he questioned, insulted.

"Because…they're girls…" Monica answered.

"So? Name them Josephine."

"Eww!"

"Besides, we were using the first letters of our names for theirs. And Joey doesn't start with an M or a C," Chandler explained.

Joey wrinkled his forehead for a moment, and then realized what they meant.

"There ya go!" Chandler commented.

"So…no problem…name one Moey."

"I don't think so."

"Coey?"

"No!" Monica warned.

"Coseph? Moseph?"

"We'll think about it," Monica relented.

"Really?"

"Yeah and I just though about how my answer will be 'absolutely not'. Now get out of my room."

Chandler added, "Yeah. Go get a sandwich or something."

"Fine," he huffed, "But only because you asked me to."

"Right…"

He left, but reentered after a moment, "Can I have $5? I spent my last $10 on candy."

"Oh my God! You spent $10 on candy?!"

"Hey!" Joey defended, "It was good candy!"

Ok, that's it for my series, I guess…omg so sad! Well, there may be an epilogue. But, as I said before, only if people want one. Ok…btw, I know very little about giving birth, since I never had, nor have ever been in a delivery room. So, if I got things wrong, then don't hold it against me, please! Everything is pretty much what I've seen on TV and/or learned in Health class. Eww…it's gross. Last year, we had to watch a birthing video. Well, at least when/if I give birth, I won't have to watch…lol. Ok, please leave a review, thanks! You've been a great…umm…audience (?). I don't know what to call it…lol.:)
