That's How My Daddy Save Joey Tribbiani

"…. And then the doctors removed the bullet…." 6 year old, Sarah Bing told her class, proudly. "And that's how my Daddy saved Joey Tribbiani!"

"That was very good, Sarah…" His teacher, Mrs Hayes smiled at him. "Now, are there any questions?"

The whole class throw their hands in the air, impatiently moving around on their seats, hoping to get picked.

"Tommy?" Mrs Hayes pointed to a boy in the front row.

"Why did he do it?" Tommy asked.

"Because they're best friends!" Sarah replied.

"Well, it was very brave of your father to do that…" Mrs Hayes told her. "Hannah, what's your question?"

"My Mommy said that Joey Tribbiani is a famous actor and makes lots of money…" The little girl started. "Does he give your Daddy money for saving his life?"

"No…"

"Oh, what did he give him then to say thank you?" Hanna asked. "Did he send him a thank you card, my Mommy makes me send them when I get presents!"

"No, I don't think he gave him anything…" Sarah shrugged.

"Why not?"

"I don't know…" Sarah frowned. "My Aunty Rachel said he was mad at him."

"Didn't he want to be saved?" A boy from the back called out.

"I don't know…." She said again.

"I'm sure he did want to be saved…" Mrs Hayes stepped in. "I think he might have been upset because your Daddy was hurt…"

"Maybe…" Sarah smiled before skipping back to her seat.

"Hello…I'm home!" Chandler called out when he walked through the front door of the apartment.

"Daddy!" Sarah exclaimed, running to him, wrapping her arms around his legs.

"Hey, sweetie…" He grinned, picking her up and kissing her forehead. "Have fun at school today?"

"Uh-huh…" She nodded. "I told my class how you saved Joey's life!"

"Oh really?" He smiled slightly, walking into the living room, giving Monica a smile. "Hey, honey…"

"Hey…" she smiled back at him, looking up from the baby in her arms. "How was work?"

"Boring…" He replied, setting Sarah down on the floor as she went back to her colouring.

"What's new…" She laughed slightly, kissing his cheek as he sat next to her.

"Hey, Jake-y…" He took his 8-month-old son from her, ignoring her comment. "How was your day? Did you have fun with Mommy."

"Of course, he did…" She told him. "I'm a fun person!"

"Oh yeah really fun…maybe we could have some fun tonight…" He raised an eyebrow suggestively.

"Chandler!" She slapped his arm playfully, before standing up. "I'm going to start dinner."

"I want to have fun tonight!" Sarah claimed.

"Not that kind of fun, you don't…" Chandler told her.

"Why not?" She frowned.

"Yeah, Daddy…why not?" Monica smirked at him from the kitchen.

"Because you're not old enough."

"Oh…" She frowned again. "When will I be old enough?"

"When you're 30..." He informed her, seriously as he bounced up and down. "And you need a licence."

"Where do I get a licence from?" She asked.

"From me!" He stated.

"Oh, okay…" She shrugged and went back to her colouring.

Monica laughed at him shaking her head, as he poked his tongue at out her.

"Daddy?" Sarah started but not looking from what she was doing. "Why was Uncle Joey mad at you?"

"What?" He frowned. "When?"

"When you saved his life…. Why was he mad at you?" She put down her crayons and climbed on the couch next to him. "Was it because you were hurt?"

"Uh…yeah I guess it was…" Chandler stuttered slightly, thrown off by the question.

"But it wasn't your fault!"

"I know sweetie…" He sighed. "Okay, hold on a moment…"

She nodded and watched as he stood up and went into the kitchen with Jake and handed him over to Monica before returning to the couch.

"Come here…" He pulled her onto his lap. "Your Uncle Joey was upset and confused and maybe a little scared…"

"Scared?" She repeated. "Why?"

"Well, a lot of stuff happened…he thought it was his fault that I was hurt…" He tried to explain. "and sometimes, when you scared and confused you do some crazy things."

"Oh right." She thought for a moment. "But he's not scared anymore?"

"No, sweetie, he isn't…" He smiled at her.

"Okay." She nodded and hugged him. "I'm glad he's not…"

"Me too…" He replied, only noticing Monica standing watching them.

"Hey…" A voice called out, as they heard the door close. "How long till dinner."

Chandler rolled his eyes as Joey appeared. "About half an hour, man…"

"Great…" He grinned, looking at his friends. Rachel and Ross sat together on the couch, watching as their 5-year-old daughter, Emma played with Sarah. Soon after the incident with Chandler, they decided life was to short to waste and try their relationship again, this time it was successful. They had been married just over 6 years and a year later, Emma was born. Phoebe had changed much but she was now engaged to musician called Mike, who had become another member of the group.

As Joey sat down, ready to join in on Phoebe and Ross' heated discussion on gravity but instead watched as Chandler got up and went into the kitchen, holding Jake close to him. He smiled as he watched, as Chandler held his son with one arm, while the other snaked around Monica's waist as she tried to make dinner. His chin rested on his shoulder, both of them had smiles on their faces as he whispered in her ear.

Joey normally didn't like seeing all the mushy, romantic stuff but he couldn't help but watch them…. He glanced back at his friends, when he realised it was quiet and noticed they were all watching them to. Joey just wished he would find that kind of love one day.

Everyone was surprised when Chandler purpose just a month after the shooting but it made him realise what he truly wanted and the treat of death showed him how scared he was of losing all of that. Joey smiled again, when he thought back to when Chandler had informed him of his plans, once again Joey was the first to know…which meant he had to keep it a secrete for a while but it was one, he didn't mind keeping.

"Uncle Joey…" Sarah tugged on his arm.

"Yeah…" He looked at her as she used all her strength to pull him up from the couch. "Wow, you're freakishly strong!"

"Yeah, she gets it from her mother…" Chandler said turning to see what was going on but his comment earned his a slap from his wife. "Hey!"

"Come on, Uncle Joey…." Sarah pulled him towards her room. "We need to talk!"

Joey frowned, glancing back at his friends, curiously but they just shrugged in reply.

Chandler frowned slightly as he saw the door to his daughter close behind them, he knew that Sarah was going to ask Joey question about the shooting.

"Chandler!" Ross called his name for the third time.

"Huh? Sorry… what?" He looked at him.

"Are you okay?" He asked, concerned.

"Oh, yeah…I just thinking…"

"About what?"

"The night Joey came back…."

8 Years Ago

"Mon…" Chandler called out quietly as he opened his eyes.

"Hey, Honey.." She moved smiled down at him as the rest of their friends, minus Joey crowded around his bed.

"Hey, man…how you feeling?" Ross asked.

"Deja-vu springs to mind…" He mumbled. "What happened?"

"Well, the doctor said that one of your lungs collapsed…" Monica told him, brushing his hair back from his forehead. "But you're going to be okay, now…. Just need some rest."

He nodded and closed his eyes, sighing quietly. When he opened them again and looked around the room, he noticed someone was missing.

"Where's Joey?"

They all exchanged looks, not sure what to tell him.

"He uh….he had to go…" Monica finally managed to say.

"Go?" Chandler repeated.

"Yeah, he would have missed his flight…" Ross added, quietly.

"Oh."

"Don't worry, he'll be back…" Phoebe tried to reassure him.

"No he won't…" He shook his head. "Not the way I acted…"

"Chandler, you did nothing wrong!" Rachel told him.

"I was a jerk."

"No you wasn't…" Everyone turned and saw Joey stopped in the doorway. "Hey, guys…can you give us a minute?"

"Uh, yeah sure…" Ross nodded. "Lets go and get some coffee…"

"Thanks…"

"You going to be okay?" Monica asked Chandler.

"Yeah, I'll be fine…" He gave her a small smile.

"Okay, I'll be back soon." She kissed him quickly.

"Love you…" He whispered before she had chance to leave.

She grinned at him. "I love you too…"

"Aww…" Phoebe and Rachel, cooed causing Ross to roll his eyes before ushering them out the room.

"So…how you feeling?" Joey asked, once they were alone.

"I'm okay….a bit tired.." He shrugged.

"Good…" Joey nodded; an awkward silence fell on them. Joey sighed before moving closer to Chandler's bed. "Look, man…we need to talk."

"Yeah, I know…" Chandler agreed.

"Okay…" Joey didn't really know how to start. "I'm sorry about the way I acted…I shouldn't have left."

"You were angry." Chandler shrugged, looking down.

"No, I wasn't…" He shook his head. "I might have acted like I was but I wasn't."

"You weren't?" Chandler repeated. "What were you then?"

"I was upset…. Scared…" He stuttered. "I didn't know what to do."

"You should have tried to talking to someone…" Chandler suggested.

"Yeah, I know I should have but I thought that everyone blamed me."

"What?" He looked at him. "We all told you it wasn't your fault."

"I know but I thought everyone was saying that for your sake."

"God, Joe…why didn't you talk to me?"

"I didn't want to bother you…. Anymore."

"Joey, you're my best friend!" Chandler told him. "No way could you have bothered me."

Joey didn't reply, he just looked back down at the floor..

"Look, man…you're like my brother…" Chandler continued softly. "I would do anything for you and that includes risking my life for you."

Joey slowly looked up. "I'd do anything for you too…"

"Then stay in New York…"

"I can do that." Joey smiled.

"Unless you really want to move…" Chandler started. "Because if you did then I'll support you but I don't want you to leave because of want happened…because you feel guilty."

"I don't want to go to L.A…" He shook his head. "I got everything I need right here…"

"Great…" Chandler grinned. "So we're sorted now?"

"Yeah, I think we are." Joey returned his smile.

"Good because there is something I'm dying to tell someone!" Chandler started.

"Oh…really what?" Joey moved forward interested.

"Alright…okay…" Chandler shrugged to sit up, wincing in pain as he did.

"Hey, you okay…" Joey reached out to help him.

"Yeah, I'm fine…" He reassured him, pausing before opening the cupboard next to his bed where his clothes were kept and grabbed his jeans.

"You're not doing a runner are you?" Joey asked. "Because Monica will kill me if I let you…"

Chandler rolled his eyes. "No, I just wanted to show you something."

Joey frowned curiously as Chandler pulled out a small jewellery box from one of the boxes.

"Oh my god…" He gasped when he saw the beautiful diamonded and sapphire ring. "Is this what I think it is?"

"Yeah…It use to be my Grandmothers…my Mom gave it to me a few years ago…" Chandler smiled. "Now I want to give it to, Monica…"

"Monica? As an engagement type thingy…"

"Yeah, that's the idea!" He grinned widely.

"Oh my god!" Joey exclaimed. "Are you serious!"

"Yeah, I know it sudden but it feels right…. And a good thing that's come from all of this is that its shown me what I can lose…I don't want to lose her, Joe… want to spend the rest of my life with her…I want a family with her… and I can't wait to start all of that."

"Oh, man…I'm so happy for you!"

"Really? You think it's a good idea?"

"Yeah, you guys are perfect for each other!"

"I know!" He grinned again. "Listen, don't tell anyone, okay? I want it to a surprise."

"No problem!" He told him. "When are you going to do it?"

"I don't know, not until I'm back on my feet…I want it to be perfect…"

"It will be!" Joey assured him, all their problems before now forgotten.

Present

"Joe, Sarah…" Chandler called out. "Dinner's ready!"

Both of them came rushing out of her room and towards the table were everyone else was already sat.

"Daddy…I made you something…" Sarah told him.

"Oh, yeah?" He smiled down at her as she handed him a card. On the front were three people, under them she had written 'Sarah' 'Joey' and 'Daddy' and across the top in bright letters she had drawn 'Thank You.' Chandler smiled again, glancing up at his friends as they all watched before he opened it up.

"To Daddy…" He read out aloud. "Thank you for saving my Uncle Joey and for being the best Daddy in the world…. Love Sarah."

Chandler didn't know what to say, he looked back up and saw everyone still watching. He placed it on the table before picking Sarah up and placing on his lap, hugging her tightly as he kissed the top of her head.

"Thank you, I love it…" He whispered. "And I love you…"

"I love you too, Daddy…" She replied, hugging him back before climbing off his lap onto her own seat.

Everyone slowly started to eat except Joey and Chandler, who smiled at each other. Both knowing what the other was trying to say….

XxX-The End-XxX
