I was watching reruns from season 2 and got the idea for this AU fic.

This is an AU fic. It starts right around TOW Heckles Dies. There never was a Julie so Ross and Rachel are dating. Chandler did date Janice but he doesn't get back together with her and he never dates Kathy . Monica never dates Pete or Richard. (I'm a die hard C/M fan and hated seeing them with other people! LOL) Chandler and Joey live together as do Monica and Rachel.

Title: Secret Love


Chapter 9:Telling The Folks



Monica smiled as she looked at her engagement ring for the hundredth time. She couldn't help it. She loved it. It was the most beautiful ring she'd ever seen given to her by the love of her life. She was happier than she'd been in a long time. She was going to become Mrs. Chandler Bing in 2 months and a mother in 7 months. Her and Chandler were going to tell her parents and his parents tonight over dinner. Ross, Rachel, Joey and Phoebe would also be there to support their bestfriends.





Chandler walked in setting his briefcase down. "Mmm something smells good" he said as he walked into the kitchen and kissed Monica and lightly patted her still flat stomach. "Daddy's home" he said to her belly. Monica giggled. "You know she can't hear you yet" she told him. "Sure he can Mon" he said. "He huh" she replied. "Yeah I see us having a boy then twin girls and another boy" he told her. "Oh really and what else do you see" she asked "Well we'll live in a house in the suburbs where our kids can learn to ride their bikes and stuff and we'll have a cat with a little bell on its collar and of course an apartment over the garage where Joey can grow old" he told her wrapping his arms around her. "Mmm it sounds nice but when you said cat you meant dog right" she said. "Oh yeah definitely" he said quickly.






Monica sighed softly "I hope our parents will be happy for us" she whispered. He turned her around so they were facing each other. "Don't worry Mon they will be" he said kissing her. "Chandler if you kiss me like that again I may burn dinner" she giggled. "That's okay by me" he said with a grin. Monica smiled "I tell you what if you can behave your self tonight I'll give you a special reward later" she said seductively. "Oh yeah what's my reward" he asked. "Oh just sex on the balcony" she said winking as she turned back to the stove. Chandler grinned "Yeah baby" he said mimicking Joey. He started to dance. "Don't do the dance honey she said chuckling. "Damn you know me so well" he said.





Ross and Rachel walked in. "Hey guys" they said. "Monica smiled "Great Rach you can help" she said. "Okay what do you want me to do" she asked "Would you please set the table." Monica asked. Rachel nodded and starting getting the dishes out of the cabinet. Joey and Phoebe walked in. "I'm hungry when do we eat" Joey asked. "Soon Joey" Monica answered. Joey sighed as he sat down on the sofa next to Ross and Chandler.




Phoebe smiled "Hey Mon guess who has a boyfriend" she giggled. "Hmm lets see Rach already has one and I'm engaged so it must be you Pheebs" she said. She nodded "Yep its me and its Joey" she said excitedly. "Really!" Monica squealed. "Yuh huh!" Phoebe exclaimed.





Chandler glanced at the women. "Could they be any louder" he commented. "What's up with them anyway" Ross asked. Joey smiled "Pheebs probably told them she's my girlfriend" he said giggling. "What you and Pheebs" Chandler asked. "Yep and let me tell you she is so bendy" he said winking at them. "Way to go Joe" Chandler said giving him a high five. A knock at the door interrupted their laughter. "Chandler honey would you get that" Monica asked.





Chandler got up and opened the door. "Mom hi" he said hugging her. "You remember Rachel, Phoebe, Monica, Joey and Ross don't you" he asked. "How could she forget Ross he kissed her" Joey said giggling. "Joey!" all 5 friends shouted. Nora smiled "That's okay and yes I do remember everyone" she said.




There was another knock on the door and Chandler opened it. "Hi Mr. and Mrs. Geller" he said with a smile. "Jack its the boy who hates Thanksgiving" Judy whispered. Chandler heard her but he didn't say anything. He let them in. "Mr. and Mrs. Geller this is my mom Nora Tyler Bing, mom these are Ross and Monica's parents" he said. They all shook hands. "Hey mom, dad "Ross said standing up and hugging them. Monica walked over and hugged them too.




Chandler kept glancing nervously at Monica and Judy noticed. She leaned toward her husband. "Jack I think Chandler's still smoking pot" she whispered. Chandler heard her. He walked into the kitchen. "Mon" he whispered "Why does your mom think I smoked pot" he asked.




Ross had heard it too her walked over to them. "Umm because I told them that you did" he whispered. "What, why...why would you do that" Chandler asked. "I was smoking pot in my room and they caught me so I said it was you" he said. Monica grabbed Ross and pulled him into her bedroom. "Ross Geller fix this, you go out there and tell mom and dad it was you" she demanded. But Mon" he whined. "Ross I'm marrying Chandler" she said. "I'm carrying his baby" she added setting her hand on her stomach. "Please Ross" she pouted. He sighed "Okay" he said as he walked back out to the living room.




"Mom, dad" Ross started. "Yes son" Judy answered. "Umm nothing" he said. Monica glared at him. "Then I'll tell them." she stated. "Ross smoked pot in his room" she said. "Tattle tale" he said. "Monica broke the porch swing" he spat out. "Ross was the one stealing dads playboys not the mail man" she shouted. "Oh yeah well Monica and Chandler are engaged and Monica's pregnant!" Ross shouted.





Jack, Judy, and Nora all stared at the couple in shock. "Monica what have you done" Judy asked. "Is the baby Chandler's or is he marrying you so it won't be a bastard" she questioned. Monica burst into tears. She glared at Ross as she ran to her bedroom. Chandler wanted to go after. He looked at Judy. "First of all I love Monica with all my heart we've been together for a year and we've been living together for a couple of months" he spat out. "The baby is mine but its not the reason I'm marrying her, I'm marrying her because I love her and I want to spend the rest of my life with her" he said angrily. He walked away and headed to the bedroom.





Chandler went into the bedroom. He heard Monica's muffled cries. "Mon, sweeite" he whispered. She sat up and looked at him. "Why Chandler why did Ross do that" she asked. "Honey I'm sure Ross didn't mean it he just got swept up in the moment" he whispered. "Come on we might as well go out and face the music" he said with a small smile. Monica grabbed some kleenex out of the box on the nightstand and dried her eyes. "Okay" she whispered reaching for his hand.





They walked back out to the living room. Ross ran up to them. "Monica, Chandler I'm so so sorry" he said with sincerity. Monica gave him a small smile. "Its okay Ross" she said softly. "We were both acting like children" she added as she hugged him. Chandler smiled "Don't worry Ross you're still the bestman" he said. "Hey I thought I was bestman" Joey whined. "Oh I know! I'll get ordained on the internet then I can marry you guys" he exclaimed. Monica and Chandler looked at each other and then at Joey. "Umm we'll think about it" they said together.



Monica walked over to her mom. "Mom" she whispered. "Monica I'm sorry honey I was just stunned that's all" Judy said softly. "I'm happy for you and Chandler sweeite" she said hugging her daughter. "Aww my little Harmonica getting married and having a baby I'm so happy for you sweetheart" Jack said hugging her. "Thank you daddy, thank you mom" Monica whispered.



Nora smiled "I though we screwed you up so bad this day would never come" she said hugging her son. Congratulations Chandler" she whispered. "Thanks mom" he answered. Nora then hugged Monica "Congratulations darling" she said . "Thank you Mrs. Bing" she said softly. "Please you'll be Mrs. Bing soon call me mom" she said. "Okay" Monica replied.




Judy smiled "So sweetheart when is the wedding" she asked. Monica looked at Chandler. He took her hand lacing his fingers with hers. "Valentine's Day" he said smiling. "In 2 months" Rachel shrieked "We better get planning!" she exclaimed. "I know!" Monica squealed. "I have to get the book! she said running to her room. She returned seconds later with a big binder. " Oh no the wedding book I haven't seen that since like the 6th grade" Ross groaned.
