Chapter 3: A Love Like Ours

A doctor approached the group. "Excuse me which one of you is Mrs. Bing" she asked. "I...I am" Monica whispered. "Is...is my husband going to be okay" she asked. "Mrs. Bing I'm Dr. Matthews I'm afraid your husband is in very critical condition the bullet caused an aortic rupture" she told her. "Wh...what does that mean" she asked. "It means there's tear in your husband's aorta" she answered. "Is...is that bad" Monica asked. "yes it is the aorta is the main artery coming out of the left ventricle of the heart" Monica felt the tears filling her eyes again. "Oh my God his heart" she sobbed "Can...can you fix it " she asked. "Yes the tear can be repaired surgically " the doctor replied. "and then he'll be okay" Monica asked. "There's a chance he may not make" she said softly. "I'm sorry Mrs. Bing"

"Sorry, you're sorry" Monica sobbed "Are you the one who's gonna have to raise this baby alone, are you the one who's gonna have to tell this baby why he or she doesn't have a father!" she yelled "Don't tell me you're sorry tell me you're gonna fix my husband, my Chandler" she cried breaking down. "Ma'am I assure you that your husband has the best surgical team working on him and everything that can be done for him is and will be done" Dr. Matthews said. "Your husband will be in surgery for a few hours the surgeon will page me once he's in recovery then I'll take you up to him "

Monica just nodded as she watched the doctor walk away. She glanced down at her hands. They were still stained with Chandler's blood. She looked at the rings. "Please God please don't take Chandler from us" she whispered rubbing her belly. "I'd give up these rings and every other piece of jewelry I own for Chandler he's everything to me, he's been a part of my life since I was 17 years old I need him I don't know how to live without him" she whispered. She closed her eyes and thought of Chandler.

She thought about the first time they met. She was fat, Rachel had her old nose, and Chandler had a flock of seagulls hair cut. She made him Mac and Cheese and he called her fat. The following year she'd lost all the weight and stunned him with her new body. She listened to Rachel and tried to flit with him and ended up cutting off his toe.

Laying here with you

Listening to the rain

Smiling just to see, the smile upon your face

These are the moments, I thank God I'm alive

These are the moments, I'll remember all my life

I found all I've waited for

And I could not ask for more

Monica sighed heavily her hand resting on her small belly. She thought about the day Ben was born. Chandler had said if neither of them were married when they were forty he'd have a baby with her. Sometime later while on the beach he had asked her if she thought he was boyfriend material. She never imagined he would become her boyfriend several months later.

Looking into your eyes

Seeing all I need

Everything you are, is everything to me

These are the moments, I know heaven must exist

These are the moments, I know all I need is this

I have all I've waited for

And I could not ask for more

Tears ran down Monica's face as she thought of London. She'd been upset because some drunk guy thought she was Ross's mother. Chandler had been there for her comforting her. When he told her she was the most beautiful woman in most rooms she couldn't resist the erge to kiss him. Kissing him was the best thing she ever did. Even though she worried about crossing the line she was glad she took the chance. When they returned to New York they spent months sneaking around. She even wore a turkey on her head and danced for him trying to cheer him up on Thanksgiving. He had said he loved her but then denied saying it.

I could not ask for more than this time together

I could not ask for more than this time with you

Every prayer has been answered

Every dream I have's come true

And right here in this moment, is right where I meant to be

Here with you, here with me

Monica heard her friends talking beside her but she didn't care. The one person she cared about most was in an operating room fighting for his life because of her. She glanced over at Phoebe her eyes red from crying too. She though about how her and Chandler snuck around awhile after they returned to New York. One by one the gang sound found out about them. Phoebe tried to seduce Chandler into admitting he was sleeping with her but he cracked confessing his love for her.

Monica glanced at Ross and Rachel. Rachel was in Ross's arms she too had been crying. More tears fell as she thought of Las Vegas and Chandler saying if she rolled another hard eight they'd get married but once they saw a drunken Ross and Rachel come out of the chapel they changed their minds and when they returned to New York Chandler asked Monica to live with him. She'd been so happy she leaped off the couch into his arms.

These are the moments, I thank God I'm alive

These are the moments, I'll remember all my life

I found all I've waited for

And I could not ask for more

She lightly ran her finger over her engagement ring. The night she and Chandler got engaged had been one of the happiest nights of her life. The apartment was filled with candles and she was on one knee trying to propose to him but her tears got in the way so Chandler knelt down in front of her and asked her to be his wife. Later they danced in the candle light as Wonderful Tonight played on the stereo.

Their wedding had been everything Monica had dreamed of. All except the minister. Joey had performed the ceremony. At first she worried about him being the minister but in the end she was glad he was the one who married them. When she walked down the isle and saw Chandler standing there smiling at her she knew he was her forever, her soulmate. She once told Chandler she didn't believe in soulmates that she didn't think they were destine to be together but she was wrong. She knew in her heart Chandler was her destiny, that they were meant to be together, he was her soulmate.

I could not ask for more than this time together

I could not ask for more than this time with you

Every prayer has been answered

Every dream I have's come true

And right here in this moment, is right where I meant to be

Here with you, here with me

Monica rubbed her small stomach. It had been the day Emma was born that her and Chandler decided to start their family. After a year of trying and nothing happening they decided to go to a fertility clinic. When they had been told they may never have children she'd been heartbroken. Chandler was heartbroken too. He held her and promised her they'd figure it out that one day they would have a child. He had even brought home a guy he worked with as a possible sperm donor. Chandler always went out of his way to make her happy just like he promised the night he proposed. She had been touched but she said if she couldn't get pregnant with him then she didn't want to get pregnant at all. They were thinking about adoption but then she learned she was pregnant. She was four months pregnant with Chandler's baby and now there was a chance he may never get to see his baby.

I could not ask for more than the love you gave me

'Coz its all I've waited for

And I could not ask for more

I could not ask for more

Monica broke down in sobs. "Please God" she sobbed "Please don't take Chandler away from me I love him, I need him please" she sobbed. Her friends were worried about Chandler the thought of losing a part of the gang was something none of them wanted to think about. They were equally worried about Monica. They hated seeing her like this. Chandler was her life. He made her smile in a way no one else could. Their love was like no other. They over came many obstacles together they hoped this was an obstacle they both could over come.
