Monica yawned as she walked out of David's room with David in one arm. "Hey." Monica said sitting on the couch. It had been about a week since the whole proposal thing. Monica was fine. She was over it... well not over it.. She just didn't think about it. Chandler came over as he always did. Ross, Joey and Phoebe didn't notice anything different.

"Is Chandler going to come by and pick David up today?" Joey bit into a chocolate donut.

"No. Why?"

"I have something for him."

"What?" Monica asked rubbing her head.

"I found a video and it was labeled Chandler.. so I figured it was his."

"What's on it?"

"I don't know."

"I'll give it to him when he comes by." Monica picked David up and walked over to the table.

"Hey David!" Joey smiled and held out his hand for a high five. David looked at Joey and slapped his hand. "Yea buddy!" David began reaching for Joey's donut. "No."

Monica laughed and handed David to Ross. "I'm gonna go shower." The phone rang and Monica picked it up. "Hello? Hi... No I'm not working today.. Yea.. ok. Ok.. I'll see you tomorrow." Monica hung up the phone and looked at Joey. "Chandler's coming by tomorrow."

"Alright. Here." Joey slid the video across the table.

"Put it on the tv."

"Ok."

"I'm so tired."

"Anything exciting going on tonight?" One of the waitresses asked Monica as she took off her chef hat.

Monica laughed. "No. I'm just gonna pick up my son and spend the night with him."

"So you're gonna be even more tired." She laughed.

"No.. he's a good baby. I look forward spending time with him.. As tired as he makes me.. I just.. love to be around him. I look forward to leaving work to be with him."

"That's sweet. Well I have to go.. I'll see you next week." She smiled. "I'm locking up tonight."

"Ok. Bye." Monica smiled and left. Monica got into a taxi and sat patiently looking out the window as the driver drove to Chandler's. When they got there Monica walked into Chandler's apartment. "Chandler." She called.

"Hey Monica." Holly smiled.

"Hey."Monica walked over to Holly and took David from Holly making him cry. "Sweetie what's wrong?" She asked sitting down on a chair and bounced him on her knee. His cry began to grow louder. "Oh Honey." Monica held him closer and rocked him. "Sweetie it's mommy."

"That's weird he was fine a second ago." Holly took David and he immediately stopped crying.

Chandler looked at Monica. And wished that Holly never touched him.

Monica stood up and took David back but he screamed even louder. Her heart dropped and she gave him back to Holly. Monica looked at Chandler, who could see that she was hurt, and then back at David who was now giggling because Holly was tickling him.

Chandler walked over to Holly. "Hey David it's time to go home buddy." Chandler took David from Holly. "It's time to go home with your mommy." Chandler handed David to Monica. David was fine until he looked at Monica and began crying.

Monica bounced him around. "Baby it's me.. mommy. Shhhh.." She stroked the back of his head. His cry grew louder.

"Dave what's wrong with you? It's your mom." Chandler touched David's hand.

"I guess he just doesn't want to come home." Monica forced a smile and gave David to Chandler who well.. stopped crying.

"Maybe you should come to dinner with us and after a while he'll be fine."

"No it's ok.. I guess... um.. he can stay for the night."

"Mon.."

"It's ok. I mean if he doesn't want to come home that's fine. I mean you're his father.. and if he wants to spend the night at your place fine."

"He doesn't know what's going on Mon.."

"Well he obviously doesn't want to come home with me. So just.. drop him off tomorrow morning before you got work."

"Are you sure you're ok with this?"

"Yes I'm sure. I can go home and get more milk if you need it."

"No I think we're fine."

"Ok.. great." Monica forced another smile. "I guess I have a night to myself."

"Yea.." Holly smiled. "That should be nice. Since you won't have to deal with David crying all night.."

"Right..Well I'm gonna go and start my... great night. So I'm gonna go." Monica was about to kiss David on the cheek but stopped. She didn't want to hear him cry. Hearing him cry because of her made her heart break. "Bye David." Monica whispered. "Bye you guys." She looked at David one last time and left.

Monica lay in bed and cried her eyes out. It was 12:32 am. She had been crying since she left Chandler's apartment. Her own baby chose his soon to be step mother over her. Her own baby didn't want her. What was wrong with her? Monica thought about how happy David was when Holly held him. She began to cry even harder. Why was everyone picking Holly over Monica? Monica heard the door open and tried to be as quiet as possible. It was probably Joey, Rachel, Phoebe or Ross checking to see if she was ok and if she needed any help. Monica bit her lip and tried not to move. "Mama."
