Two Weeks Later

Monica's Apartment

"Okay, see you guys." Ross closed the door and went down the stairs.

Rachel waited until he was completely out of site before turning towards Monica, leaning forward to speak. "So what did he say?"

"It's so complicated, especially for poor old Ben, he'll have to move in with Ross."

"But that'll be terrible for him, after losing his mother the last thing he'll want to do is move."

Monica nodded, and sighed. After Carol's death there had been great arguments between Ross and Susan over custody of Ben, as Susan wasn't his birthmother. "The court thinks he should be with Ross, as Susan has no real relation."

Rachel shook her head in disbelief, "That poor boy."

Phoebe walked in, "Which poor boy?"

"We were just talking about Ben," Rachel told her.

"Oh, is he gonna live with Ross?"

Monica nodded.

"Poor Susan!" Phoebe exclaimed, putting her bag on the sofa and taking off her coat.

"Why poor Susan?"

"Well, she's just lost her partner and now she'll lose her son."

Rachel sipped her coffee, "I never thought of that, but you're right! Wow, this is getting so complicated."

"But she's not his mother, Ross has to keep him." Monica sighed.

Coffee House

Later that day

Ross came in, his face grave and he looked depressed.

"Hey sweetie, you alright?" Monica asked, reaching for his hand as he crossed behind the sofa.

"I could be better. Court was horrible."

Rachel gave a sympathetic look and felt helpless. "What happened?"

Ross sat down and waved his hand in an attempt to get a cup of coffee. "She lost, I got custody of Ben and she cried."

"Isn't it good that you got Ben, I mean, he's your son." Rachel couldn't find the right words to console him.

"Eh, I'm just so exhausted from it all."

"I can imagine, just getting up for court would tire me out." Joey said, nodding.

The gang looked at him and carried on.

"It'll all seem better in the morning, trust me." Chandler said, patting him on the back.
