Chapter 10: TOW The Christmas Wedding

Monica and Phoebe sat in a bridal shop waiting for Rachel to come out wearing yet another gown. "Was I this bad when I was getting married" Monica asked. "Worse" Phoebe said with a smile. Rachel came out "Well what do you think" she asked as she looked at herself in the floor length mirror. "You look beautiful" Monica said. Rachel looked at her refection. She wrinkled her nose. "No this isn't it" she said disappearing in to the dressing room once again.

She came out four more times before coming out in the gown she would choose. Rachel looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a strapless white gown with a long flowing train and an elegant veil. Her eyes sparkled with tears. "Guys this is it" she said "This is the dress" Monica and Phoebe looked at their friend the dress looked like it had been made for her. "Wow Rach you look beautiful" they both said. "I'm really getting married" Rachel whispered. "I know!" Monica exclaimed.

Ross was at Central Perk hanging out with Chandler, Joey, and Mike. "Dude lets talk about your bachelor party!" Joey said with a grin. "Oh no Ross's Bachelor Bash 98 flashbacks" Ross giggled. "I don't think I need a bachelor party Joe" he said. "But you have to have one" Joey whined. "I promise the duck won't eat the ring this time" Ross sighed "Fine but keep it small just you, Chandler, Mike and Gunther is fine" he said. "Ooh strippers we need to get strippers" Joey giggled. "Joey I don't think our wives and girlfriends would like that" Chandler pointed out. Joey laughed this from a guy who's wife untied a guy's g-string with her teeth and hired him a hooker" he giggled. "Umm Joey aren't you the minister" Mike asked.

Joey nodded. "Yeah so" he asked. "So ministers partying with strippers is a big no-no" Mike told him. Joey's eyes grew wide. "Chandler!" he whined. "Relax Joe if internet ministers can have sex they can party with strippers." Chandler said. "Whew!" Joey sighed with relief. The guys laughed.

Everyone was gathered around the Christmas tree in Chandler and Monica's apartment. They decided to open presents on Christmas Eve since most of Christmas day will be the celebration of Ross and Rachel's wedding. "Can we open presents now" Joey whined. "33 Joe you're 33" Chandler chuckled. "So I want presents!" he whined. "Okay" Monica laughed handing him a present to open.

That night Rachel and Phoebe spent the night at Monica's and Chandler and Ross, spent the night at Joey's. Monica was very anise she couldn't sit still. She sat down on the sofa and got back up again. ""Mon what's wrong with you, you'd think you were the one getting married tomorrow" Rachel giggled. "I umm I just miss Chandler you know I don't sleep well with out him" Monica rambled. "Mon, honey its only eight o'clock" Phoebe pointed out.

All of a sudden Rachel smiled. "Ooh Pheebs I know what's wrong with her!" Phoebe smiled too. "The fourth month hun Mon wanna borrow my Evander Holyfield cardboard cut out" she chuckled. "What?" Monica asked. "You're in your fourth month Mon" Rachel pointed out. "So" she said. "So you want some of that Chandler love" Phoebe laughed. "You're wrong Pheebs I just miss him okay" Monica said. "Yuh huh you miss the sex" Phoebe said. Her and Rachel burst into laughter. "I give up you two are crazy" Monica said. "I think I'll go take a bath" She headed toward the bathroom. "Have fun with the shower massager!" Phoebe giggled. Monica gave them a look and groaned as she slammed the bathroom door. Rachel and Phoebe continued to laugh.

The morning came quick. Rachel yawned and stretched as she glanced at the sun shining through the window. She got up and looked out the window. It was a prefect day. There was a fresh blanket of snow and the sun was shining. She smiled. "I'm getting married!" she giggled as she danced around the room. She stopped when she saw Phoebe and Monica standing in the doorway smiling at her. "Marry Christmas!" they both giggled. "Lets start getting you ready" Monica said ushering her from the room.

Across the hall Ross woke up to the sunshine too. He sprung out of bed. I'm getting married today WooHoo!!" he shouted happily. "Yeah for like the fourth time" Chandler joked as he came out of his old room yawning. "You're so funny first thing in the morning" Ross said sarcastically. "Hey I am the bestman" Chandler chuckled. Joey yawned as he came out of his room. "I smell pancakes" he said. "No you don't Joe" Chandler stated. "Well don't you think I should" he giggled. "This is what I lived with for six years" Chandler joked as he went to the kitchen.
