Chapter 10: Unwanted Guest
Rachel looked at her bestfriend, she was in the clutches if her ex fiancee and it was all her fault. "Please Pierre let her go, she's pregnant" Rachel whispered. He shrugged "I don't care" Rachel didn't know what to do. If she screamed for the others Pierre would hurt Monica. She thought of acting like she was agreeing to go to Paris so he'd let her go but she didn't think that would work either. It was then she caught a glimpse of Ben in the corner of her eyes. He was sneaking towards the dining room with Erica. She was right that boy was just like his father smart and brave. She turned her attention away so he wouldn't be noticed. She looked at Pierre.
"So tell me does threatening a pregnant woman make you feel like a big man" she asked. "You know you're just a pathetic coward picking on women" He glared at her. "Shut up" he said slapping her across the face. Rachel's cheek was red and her lip was bleeding a little when Monica saw this she began to struggle trying to break free from his grip. He tightened his grip on her "Stop your damn squirming" he said.
Ben glanced towards his two aunts. He saw Pierre slap Rachel and tighten his grip on Monica. He wanted to help them but he knew the little karate his dad taught him would be useless against that guy. "Mama" Erica whimpered. "Shh its okay Erica" he whispered as they finally made it to the dining room. When Erica saw Chandler she let go of Ben's had and ran to him. "Dada, mama" she cried pointing towards the livingroom. He picked her up and looked at Ben "What is she talking about" Ben looked at him. "There's some man in the livingroom he's got aunt Monica and he hit aunt Rachel"
Chandler didn't have to ask he already knew who the man was. He handed Erica to Phoebe "Keep her in here with you" he started towards the livingroom. Ross and Joey got up following him. The three men walked into the livingroom. "Get your hands off my wife you son of a bitch!" Chandler yelled. "Sure as soon as Rachel says she'll come home" he grinned. "She is home you bastard" Joey stated already hating the guy. "She belongs in Paris with me" Pierre snapped. "No she doesn't she belongs here with me" Ross said moving towards him. "I won't let
you hurt her or my sister" he said "So just let Monica go and get the hell out of here and never come back"
Pierre laughed "You can't stop me, didn't you learn that last time" Ross shook his head "I don't care what happens to me but I won't stand by and watch the woman I love, the woman I was meant to spend the rest of my life with, my lobster be hurt by the likes of you" Rachel looked at Ross with silent tears running down her face. She felt exactly the same way about him. She looked at Pierre "Its over, its been over for s long time "she said "I never really wanted to marry you I just thought moving on would help me get over Ross but nothing would help me because I didn't want to get over him, I love him, he's the only man I want to spend my life with" she said
Pierre stood there staring at Rachel. He got mad letting go of Monica and shoving her aside. He grabbed Rachel "Well he can't have you, you're mine" he snarled. Chandler quickly ran to Monica's side. She assured him, she was okay and told him to help Rachel. "Why are you doing this" Rachel cried "You don't love me, if you did you would never have hurt me like you have" He laughed "So lover boy over there never hurt you" he asked "No Ross has never purposely hurt me because unlike you he loves me!" she screamed getting upset. "Now get your hands off me" she struggled to get free. "You heard her asshole get your hands off of her!" Ross snapped attacking him. Both men were soon fighting. Pierre hit Ross hard causing him to fall back hitting his head on the coffee table. He laid there not moving.
"Ross!!" Rachel cried. She looked at Pierre with rage and hate "What the hell did you do you son of a bitch!" she yelled angry tears spilling from her eyes. She grabbed of the silver candle sticks she and Monica had fought over when she moved out from its place on the mantle. "What are you gonna do with that" Pierre laughed grabbing her knocking it from her hand. "Now lets go home" he started to drag her out but he didn't get very far when he was hit from behind. He fell to the floor. Rachel stumbled. She steadied herself and turned around to see Chandler standing there with the candle stick in his hand. "I told you he wouldn't leave here in one piece" he said.
Rachel threw her arms around him hugging him tight. She'd never be able to tease him about being weak again. "Thank you" she whispered. He nodded "Nobody messes with my family" he looked at her "Are you okay" she nodded "I'm okay" She looked over his shoulder. Monica and Joey were with Ross. He was starting to come to. "Ross" she whispered. She pulled away from Chandler and raced over to him. "Ross, sweeite" she said kneeling by him. "Rach" he groaned softly "My head" he winced as he sat up. "I know" she whispered. She then saw the small trickle of blood on the corner of his head. "Oh God honey, I'm so sorry" she cried hugging him gently. "Shh its okay I'm fine" he looked at Monica's coffee table "But I can't say the same for Mon's coffee table."
Rachel looked at the table its lag was broken off and there was a crack in the glass. She then looked at Monica "I'm sorry Mon I...I'll replace it, ar...are you both okay" she asked gently touching her stomach She nodded "Don't worry we're fine and don't worry about the table" she said "are you okay" she asked. Rachel nodded "Yeah I am now" she glanced at Pierre's motionless body as she snuggled closer to Ross. "I am now" she whispered again.
Author's Note: Hello Children. Here's the next Chapter. Okay I know I had Chandler the hero but the poor guy never gets to be a hero LOL This may be the last chapter unless you all think I should do a epilogue, which I'd be happy to do of course! Oh and as you see Pierre is gone I got rid of him like many of you wanted! LOL Anyway please read, review and enjoy! Oh and yes I did see Joey. Gina kissing was a bit disturbing but I agree she's great!
