The One Where They Announce It (Thanksgiving Special)

AN: Do you guys think that the Previously on Friends stuff is annoying? I wanted to make it seem like a real episode… well please tell me. Oh, and rachgreengeller, I sent you that message as a joke. It just seems to me that everyone is saying "you update so fast…" it does seem like people want me to slow down. Oh well. Also, I know that the Chapters haven't been funny lately, but there has been so much drama. Sure, I put a joke every now and then…but it's hard to make people laugh when Monica is in a mini-coma. What I am trying to say is: after the whole ordeal, I'll try my hardest to make them funny again!

DISCLAIMER: These characters belong to yadda, yadda, yadda…Warner Bros. Entertainment…and Kevin S. Bright, Marta Kauffman (I didn't know how to spell it), and David Crane. Lala…w/e. And, the song is owned by The Rembrandts… and life is not like this, and I bet you are annoyed by reading this already. However, this plot is owned by me, so ha!

PREVIOUSLY ON FRIENDS:

"Monica? Monica, are you okay?" The restaurateur had already called the ambulance. "Mon, if you can here me: everything is gonna be okay! Believe me…" but Monica just laid on the floor, not saying a word.

NEXT CLIP

"Oh my god! Yea, yea, okay. Yes, I'll tell the others, we'll be there as soon as we can. Bye!" Rachel and Ross hear the conversation and come out.

"What happened, Jo?" asks Ross.

"Monica fainted or something, Chandler's in the hospital. We have to go now! Imma call Phoebe!"

NEXT CLIP

"Well Monica fainted because of the over-stress. Then, she stayed unconscious because of the impact on her stomach."

What does impact on her stomach have to do with anything?" asks Chandler.

"Monica didn't tell you? She's pregnant, and she's on the verge of a miscarriage." Everyone turned wide-eyed.

DISSOLVE:

"H-h-how, just how could she be pregnant? I mean, I mean, it's just so…agh!" Chandler says.

"Dude. Agh." Ross says.

"I can't believe, I just cannot believe it! I mean, you're low on sperm, and she has an Inhospitable Environment." Says Rachel.

"Yea, maybe it's from another man, we all know how Chandler can't please her…" Joey begins to say as he nods his head. Everyone looks at him puzzled, they all storm away. "You have to pick your moments Joey. Now is not the time to joke!" He says to himself.

So, no one told you life was going to be this way,

Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love life's D.O.A,

It's like you're always stuck in second gear,

When it hasn't been your day, your week, your month,

or even your year,

But...

I'll be there for you!

When the rain starts to pour,

I'll be there for you!

Like I've been there before,

I'll be there for you!

'Cause you're there for me too...

Joey walked back into his apartment, and there was Gladys. Joey had previously told her to meet him there, and when she knocked on the door and no one answered…she decided to use her key.

"Where the hell have you been?" she asks Joey.

"Well…I was with the group…"

"What group, huh? A group of slutty women?"

"What? No, why would you think that? I was with Ross, and Rachel. …and Phoebe and chandler! Look Gladys, I know that I told you I was just with women before for sex…but god, woman! You have to trust me now."

"Yea, okay…I'm sorry." Gladys walks up to him and hugs him. "So, what do you wanna do for Thanksgiving?"

"Oh right, Thanksgiving. I don't think we're going to have thanksgiving this year."

"What? You guys have to have thanksgiving! Why the hell not?"

"Well, Monica usually cooks…and she's not here. She's hospitalized," Joey says.

"What? Why is she hospitalized?"

"This is kinda private, but, Monica is in a mini-coma and might have a miscarriage…"

"Oh my god…" Gladys says seriously. "Nevertheless, you guys have to have a Thanksgiving. I'll cook!" Joey raised one eyebrow…and in a few minutes, everyone was informed.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

Everyone arrived at Monica and Chandler's place for Thanksgiving…

"So Gladys, ever cooked for Thanksgiving before?" asks Rachel friendly.

"No, in fact, I've never cooked at all before…" Gladys responds. Rachel looks concerned.

"Wha-what?"

"I'm just kidding with you, Rach! Can I call you that now?"

"Sure…good one." Rachel walks away.

"What is that I smell…it smells delicious!" Joey starts to sniff around the kitchen. "Mm, turkey" Joey says, drooling.

"Hey, not until it's all ready…"

COMMERCIAL BREAK

The food was ready…everyone gathered around the table waiting for the food. As they settled down, they realized that Chandler was gone.

"Where the hell is Chandler?" Ross asks.

They didn't know that he sneaked off to be with Monica. He walked closer to her bed.

DISOLVE TO HOSPITAL

"Hey, honey. I just wanted to tell you that everything is going to be fine, because I love you. You are the reason I get up in the morning…you are my only hope.

Music plays in the background…

Only Hope by Mandy Moore

There's a song that's inside of my soul.

It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again

I'm awake in the infinite cold

But you sing to me over and over and over again

So I lay my head back down

and I lift my hands and pray

to be only yours

I pray to be only yours

I know now you're my only hope

Sing to me the song of the stars.

Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again

When it feels like my dreams are so far

Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again

So I lay my head back down,

and I lift my hands and pray

to be only yours

I pray to be only yours

I know now you're my only hope

I give you my destiny

I'm giving you all of me

I want your symphony

Singing in all that I am

At the top of my lungs

I'm giving it back

So I lay my head back down,

and I lift my hands and pray

to be only yours I pray

to be only yours I pray

to be only yours

I know now you're my only hope

BACK AT THE HOUSE

"Oh well, let's eat with out him." Joey says. They all thought that it was going to be weird without Monica. And it was. They all thought they were going to miss her. And they did. They all thought the food was going to be different. And they thought right. They thought they were going to be depressed on Thanksgiving. And they weren't. Because they had each other, and they knew Monica had Chandler. So, they ate, and they laughed, for they knew it probably would be the last time in a long time.

"Well, I have something to say…" Phoebe says, and signals Mike to stand up with her. "Well, we love you guys so much, so we know you're gonna be supportive. Well, I guess we should get right to it. You wanna say it Mike?"

"Well, you all know Phoebe and I have been trying…and well, WE'RE PREGNANT!" And just like that the Super Couple had taken off a lot of weight from their shoulders. They were able to be happy, and to brag. And everyone cheered Mike and Phoebe toasted in favor of their new baby to be. Because that's what friends do…

AN: I BOUGHT THE TENTH SEASON OF FRIENDS! YAY! OMFG! IT'S AWESOME AND SO FRICKING HILARIOUS…I SAW THE FIRST SIX EPISODES IN LIKE TWO HOURS! I LOVE IT! Also, this is 1,310 words of goodness. Lol.
